Chapter 25 - leech

Teacher- Alice. Come over. I need to have a word with you.

[Class teacher calls Alice over to the teachers desk and discuss about her class project marks. Meanwhile Amy and her friends openly bitch about her. Damian and the other guys also gossip about Alice. Damian excuses himself to the bathroom. Alice notices him but pays no attention. After getting back to her seat Julia hands her a cheat.]

Julia- Damian told me to give it to you. You guys are still dating huh...

Alice- who told you?

[Alice crumbles the paper.]

Julia- it doesn't take a scientist to see the sparks. Why else would he ask you to follow him to the bathroom? He wants to talk to you about some juicy stuff i guess.

Alice- not really. Everyone thinks I'm a drug dealer now.

Julia- oh shut up. Everyone knows the boys do all kinds of drugs, alcohol, weed and you hand 1 dead guy 1 pill for just 1 time and you're the criminal drug dealer now? Come on it will take a lot more than that to convince me that you're trashy.

Alice- Well, everyone likes digging after me now. It's their hobby. I kinda don't hate this attention anymore.

Julia- wait what?

Alice- yeah. Amy likes to bitch. Let her. It's not like her Melvin will return from the dead.

Julia- ...oh my god.

Alice- hahaha what's with the face?

Julia- god i thought you were a different kinda girl. Like how can you just joke about him like that.

Alice- i didn't joke about him. Anyway, it's not like you guys care about him.

Julia- of course i care about him. He is a part of my community.

Alice- you serious? Now he's a part of your LGBT community?

Julia- ....what do you mean now? He's always been-

Alice- what do you guys actually do in the community?

Julia- we talk about stuff—

Alice- honestly, i don't think so. He told me how you guys bullied him cause he was the only dude in the whole community. He used to cry about it.

Julia- i don't even wanna talk about this..... fuck it—

Alice- yeah sure go on... go to back alley of the streets and start smoking like always. Keep seducing Mr. G and pretend to be a lesbian. Try to act cool and all by making up a shitty community for bitches like yourself. Just that 20 years in and you'll be lying in bed fucking no one else but lung cancer and die miserably.

Julia- fuck off.

[Julia mimics her mouth without saying the words and takes a toilet break, her girlfriends follow her. Later she takes her stuff and leaves Alices seat and goes back to her bitchy friends. Class ends and Damian follows her, talking in whispers.]

Damian- you have him drugs?

Alice- yeah.

Damian- ...where did you get them?

Alice- mom takes anti depressants. I took a few strips from her pill box. Melvin really needed it.

Damian- it's lunch break now. Where do you wanna go?

Alice- the bleachers.

Damian- its fucking hot there.

Alice- i have cramps. I wanna sit under the sun.

Damian- ok.

[They go to the field and sit on the emptiest of bleachers. ]

Damian- did the cops know?

Alice- yeah. I told them.

Damian- and?

Alice- nothing happened. I told them everything i knew.

Damian- ....

Alice- hahaha... are you worried about me? It's not that bad. The police was cooperative. The detective lady didn't seem intimidating at all.

Damian- fuck no. It's hella scary. I've never experienced something like this before. Suicide, police case, interrogation, juvenile justice. I have watched a lot of movies and web series but this happening to us. I never imagined even in nightmares.

Alice- me neither. But honesty goes a long way. I know i made a few mistakes but no matter what, i didn't kill him. I wanted to protect him. He was so vulnerable always. It was crazy.

Alice- ....

Damian- ....

[Alice takes a bite out of her sandwich.]

Alice- what did aunt send you?

Damian- egg sandwich.

Alice- mine is egg with mayo. You wanna try?

[Damian and Alice share each other's food.]

Alice- how's it?

Damian- better than mine for sure.

Alice- i know right? Your eggs are too salty. But that's ok i guess. Mom doesn't make the same sandwich always either. Today was a good day. She was in a good mood.

Damian- well mine has been cranky ever since i left your house that day. I can't belive mom is a homewrecker.

Alice- crazy right?

[Damian sighs and drinks some water.]

Alice- .....

Damian- there's something i gotta tell you.

Alice- what?

Damian- promise me you won't tell anyone.

Alice- fuck no. I'll tell your mom... and the police. Hahahsha..

Damian- .....

Alice- i won't tell anyone. Go on.

Damian- .... Melvin approached me at the house party. He said he liked me for a long time, ever since i joined this school. He said he didn't care about the rumors. He also spiked my drink but i ran off cause i knew shit was about to get crazy. I didn't know he was that into me. I wasn't even sober enough to throw fists at him. I can't belive I'm saying this but i think i escaped from getting raped that day. Next day i heard that he got drunk after i left and caused a lot of scene. Some boys even posted videos at the group chat. Shit show 101.

Alice- what the fuck....did you tell the police?

Damian- yeah.... i kinda also told half of the story except the spiking drink part to Amy but she couldnt take it. She has a weak stomach.

Alice- wow.

Damian- yeah...

Alice- ...What did she do? Did she throw up?

Damian- yeah.

Alice- GOD this is too much information.

Damian- did you have a fight with Julia?

Alice- kinda.

Damian- what did she say?

Alice- usual stuff.... i called her out for sleeping with one of the teachers. I thought she was doing it for the test marks but turned out she was simply in love with him.

Damian- which teacher?

Alice- Mr. G. He teaches pol. science.

Damian- ....

[Damian holds her hand. Alice stares back.]

Alice- ....

Damian- i missed you.

Alice- are you kidding me?

Damian- I'm being serious.

Alice- after everything?

Damian- yep everything.

Alice- i don't like you anymore Damian.

Damian- look I'm sorry for saying no to your confession. I couldn't get you out of my head ever since i met at your house.

Alice- just get over it.

Damian- i will if you give me a reason to.

Alice- i like someone and he's not you.

Damian- ...you're joking right?

Alice- no I've met him a couple of times. Think I'm gonna give him a chance.

Damian- .....

Alice- ....

Damian- .....

Alice- don't you wanna know his name?

Damian- i don't... i don't wanna play games anymore.

Alice- that's not how things work. We are supposed to support each others normal relationships.... remember?

Damian- i don't care about normal relationships.

[Alice scoffs at Damian]

Alice- shut up. you have to try at least. I'm pretty sure a lot of girls have a crush on you.

Damian- but none of them is close to you.

Alice- Amy was close to me.

Damian- you know what I'm saying.

Alice- ....think about it. Life is too short to waste it on a person who can never be yours.

Damian- ....

Alice- ....

Damian- .....

Alice- ...

Damian- ...

Alice- i think the bell rang already. It's yoga now. We should get going. Mrs. H is ruthless.
