Chapter 9 - The truth

On Monday after at the lockers Elizabeth walked up to Josh with a smile on her face acting like nothing happened over the weekend. "Hi!" She said standing next to Josh's open locker, "hi," Josh replied, "you seem happy today," he pointed out as he closed his locker "Oh you can tell," she said as she smiled with her hand over her face. "Yeah, who wouldn't notice your big bright smile." He remarked, "But anyways, what were you doing over the weekend?" She asked as they started walking to their next class, "On Saturday I went to this party with half of my boys and on Sunday I just stayed home," he replied, "How was the party?" She asked, "It was kinda good, but didn't enjoy it much since girls were over me so I left early." He remarked, "What girls?" She asked, "Cora and half of her friends, but trust me I didn't do anything with them," he explained, "But.." he stopped sounding nervous, "but what?" She asked, "Well, during the party Cora suddenly kissed me out of nowhere. But don't worry I pushed her away quickly and I didn't mean to touch lips with her. Also, I told her I had a girlfriend!" Explained, "That's all?" She asked looking at him suspiciously, "Yes that was all, and after what she did I left the party quickly." He remarked, "If you say so." She said smiling as they entered their next class. Luckily the teacher wasn't there so they weren't late. "Did you tell him?" Love asked whispering as Elizabeth sat next to her, "Well no, he was the one who told me." She remarked, "What do you mean he told you?" Love asked confused, "well he told me everything that happened at the party, even the incident with Cora," she said, "For real!" Love gasped, Elizabeth smiled and nodded. "So like the hooking up and stuff he told you?" Love asked, "Well no, the hooking up stuff wasn't recent. I asked Austin about it and said he only did that when he was with Stacy." She explained as she opened her social study book, "So like he only lied to you about the parties?" Love asked again, "Girl that is way too many questions, but yes he only lied about the parties, and please no more questions." She complained, Love smiled and nodded.

After class, the girls and the boys were walking and talking to each other in the hallway. "So Josh, I was thinking that we could share our locations," Elizabeth blurted out, "why?" He asked, "Well you know, because we're a couple and I think it's right for us to do," she remarked, "don't you want to do it?" She asked and a deceiving way, "No, that's cool." He said as he took out his phone, "Phone away Mr. Smith!" A teacher shouted across the hall, "Dame how did she know." He said as he placed his phone back in his pocket. They looked at each other and all laughed. But out of nowhere, Davian popped up in front of them. "Can I talk to you for a sec?" He asked, they all looked at Love waiting for her answer, "You guys can go I'll follow behind." She said as he followed behind Davian.

Behind the school, Love was against the wall and Davian was standing in front of her. "What do you want?" She asked, "Listen, Love, please just listen to me for a minute," he said "I just want to say sorry about last time, I know what Kim did was not right, and mostly I know what I said was wrong too. So I just want to say sorry and say I didn't mean to hurt you." He replied, "It's all fine, I've already forgotten about it. Also maybe she was right, We aren't really for each other if you think about it," she remarked, "your up here and I'm down here, and I can never reach your level. So it's better If you look for someone who's on the same stage as you, like Kim. She's a good match for she has everything that I'll never have and she'll give you everything you want." She added smiling, "but I don't want her, I only want you," he confessed, "you sure about that?" She asked, he smiled and nodded his head. "So how about the girl you were kissing at the party last Saturday?" She asked, "she's nothing, I was drunk that night and it all happened suddenly." He explained as he grabbed her hand, "well if you had eyes only for me, you wouldn't be kissing anyone at any party even if you were drunk." She pointed out, "let's just face it Davian, we'll never have a chance with each other, so just let it go." She said as she pulled her hands away from him. "But I'll be cool to be friends than enemies." She said as she walked away. Davian was just left standing there in silence.

At their lunch table

Since it was break time they were sitting outside at their usual spot. "Im back yall!" Love said as she walked up to them, "What did he say?" Elizabeth asked, "Oh nothing much, just something about the project," she replied as she sat down, "are you sure?" Aria asked, Love smiled and nodded her head. "But anyways forget about that, what are you guys talking about?" She asked, "Well since we are about to go on spring break, so we were thinking about what we are going to do for the break," Destiny remarked, "how about we go to the beach, it'll be fun." Love recommend, "That's what I was telling them but they kept saying no," Elizabeth complained, "okay then we'll go to the top three choices." Daniel said so that they won't be an argument.

After school, the girls were waiting for Elizabeth at her locker. "You guys wanna go to cold stone? I'm carving something sweet," Love said, "yeah definitely, I want ice cream too." Aria added. As they continued to talk Cora suddenly came up to them. "Hey, girls!" Cora greeted them with a smirk on their face, "What do you want?" Elizabeth said as she closed her locker and turned to look at her, "woah, come down tiger I just want to say hi," she said smiling, "shut your trap and get to the point Cora," Love said sounding irritated, "Okay, okay, I'll get to the chase. Well I just wanted your help," she said, "with what?" Destiny asked, "Well you know, I just want you guys to tell Josh to unblock me I have something personal to tell him." She remarked, the girls looked at each other and laughed. "Your funny you know that Cora," Love laughed, "for real like why would I ask my boyfriend to unblock you," Elizabeth chuckled, "you shouldn't get your hopes up girl, he's not the same as when he was Stacy. Now he has and he doesn't have no dirty side chick like you anymore." She said as his smile faded away. "Now bye!" Aria said as they walked away while laughing. As they walked away Cora stood there clenching her hands into a fist.
