I couldn’t blink or try to sleep all I did was lie flat on the bed and stare at the ceiling with his words replaying in my head “I am not joking” “I like you” I just couldn't shake it out of my head no matter how hard I tried. It had to be a joke, some type of prank there was no way it was real. I just couldn't believe it The sun rose out of the clouds and it was the same thing, I couldn't take it out of my mind. I thought about what he was doing and what he was thinking about. He sounded genuine but I couldn't be fooled into believing him so I decided to go on with my day telling myself it was some type of joke and preparing myself mentally for when it gets out. “What are you thinking about?” May snapped her finger in my face “Were you saying something?” I asked, I had somehow slipped out of reality and zoned out “I said the cast list would be out soon how do you feel?” she asked taking off her jacket and dumping it into the locker “Oh, hopeful that I get a role

“I get to play Medusa” I shouted, swinging my hand in the air as he twirled me around. It was when the bell rang that it dawned on me. I was too excited that I got carried away. People started to walk out one after the other and I awkwardly ran my hand through my hair staring at my feet. “Are we going to celebrate?” he asked “What?” I asked “Celebrate you getting the role?” he asked “Oh” I laughed “There you both are” Caleb said walking towards us with Elliott and May who looked like she was fuming “What happened?” I asked “Well May almost tore off Stan’s head” Elliott laughed “Oh my God May” I turned to her “He is so lucky they held me back I would have taken out his eye with a fork” she said through her teeth “Remind me never to make you mad” Caleb said distancing from her “I am so pissed!” she stomped her feet “And Jere sat there with them laughing, I should have known the minute he started to hang out with them that he was just a stupid as they

It was up all night going through my play over and over again. It just felt like I was hitting a wall because whenever I tried to reenact it I couldn't. I felt very unsettled like a rock sitting in my heart. I took my phone and lazily went through, I thought of calling May but it was quite late, and the text I sent to let her know the court date had been selected and I wouldn't be in school. I didn't get a response from her which meant she was fast asleep. I scrolled through social media, and the first post I came across was Amelia. It was a selfie of her lying on someone’s chest and when I zoomed into the picture I could see red hair peeking just beneath where the picture was cropped out, like it was left on purpose. There was only one person with colour of hair. Jeremy It looked like an intimate picture or maybe I was seeing it wrong I sent the post to May wishing she were awake so she could tell me I wasn't seeing things. I was scrolling when I came across an old post that

“Why did you guys come?” I asked May while we waited for May to pass through security “I felt you would need someone around so I changed my mind and came over but I met Dylan parked by the gate like some stalker when I came” she told me, I slowly turned in his direction where he was walking through the metal detector My mom agreed for them to come with me she also thought it would be a good idea to have people around me. May was my best friend she had always been there for me so I wasn’t surprised she showed up. I shouldn’t be surprised about Dylan showing up because he always did but I just couldn’t help but feel that way. He was so intentional about me I didn’t want to admit it before but it was true“You guys didn’t have to wait for me” he smiled walking towards us“Come on let’s go” he grabbed my hand as we walked forwardWe were early so we had to sit in the waiting room waiting for the doors to be open for us. I sat still wiping my sweaty palm on my skirt repeatedly, my nerv

“Caleb bring down the video now” I said with my chest heaving“Elliott try finding out who posted it please start with Amelia, she is the only person I can think of” I yanked in hair in frustration “I would go find Nova” I rushed out“Wait up” May followed behind me.I ran to find her, praying that she hadn’t seen it just yet. She was already going through a lot. It would be a tragedy to add that to it. I had to find her, I almost tripped but got on my feet immediately and kept going, pushing people out of the way so I could get to her fast enough.“Nova!” I shouted as I entered the theatre “Nova!” I searched around with my eyes trying to find her, ignoring the eyes on me.“What’s the problem?” Laron walked up to me“Nova” May gasped when she saw her walking in looking between us confusedShe hadn’t seen it yet, and I sighed in relief“It is an emergency please could you cancel the rehearsal today?” I pleaded with Laron knowing Nova would be hell bent on staying and refuse to leave
