"It was horrible. He literally harassed me twice," I told Elle as we were sitting on the bench at the sandlot.

"Ooh girl, I'm sorry. He's such a pervert," she replied.

"Who's a pervert?" Benny asked as he grabbed a water.

"Jack. He tried to kiss me twice," I said, getting angry just thinking about it.

"What a jerk. I told you he wasn't good for you," he replied.

"Thanks for rubbing it in," I rolled my eyes.

"Sorry," he muttered.

"Hallie, what happened with you and Jack last night? Did you guys, you know...?" Ham asked, walking over to us.

"Gross no! What are you talking about," I responded.

"Well, according to Jack, you guys did it in his car last night," he answered.

"First of all, why were you talking to Jack, and second of all, he's such a liar! We didn't do anything!" I exclaimed.

"I wasn't talking to Jack. Someone else told me he said that," Ham replied.

"Great, so now he's spreading rumors. I knew it wasn't a good idea to go on that stupid date with him," I sighed.

"Oh my gosh, that's horrible! What a jerk," Elle said.

"I'm so done with boys. If I had said something like that, no one would have believed me because I'm a girl," I rolled my eyes.

"I know. They just think they can say whatever they want," Elle replied.

"Um, hello? There's like eight of us standing right here," Yeah-Yeah said.

"Well, it's true. Did my speech prove nothing?" I responded.

"I have a great idea! You should find a way to get back at him," Elle said excitedly.

"Yeah, you're so right!" I replied.

"Woah, slow down. You can't just go around doing stupid things and getting back at Jack even if what he did was wrong," Benny commented.

"Oh, I can do whatever I want. He messed with the wrong girl," I replied.

"Geez, remind me never to get on your bad side," Squints shuddered.

"Okay, just warning you," Benny said.

..........

Elle and I were back at my house now thinking of how to get back at Jack.

"Hey, I have an idea. Watch this," I told Elle.

I grabbed the phone from the wall and dialed Jack's mom's number. I only knew it because we used to be friends in middle school.

The phone picked up, and I answered. "Hello, is this Mrs. Reid?"

"Yes, who is this?" she asked, confused.

"This is Sarah. Is Jack home? I was wondering if I could talk to him about the baby," I said sweetly into the phone.

"Jack! Get in here!" I heard through the phone.

Then, she hung up, and Elle started laughing.

"He won't be going out for a while now," I said.

"Good, serves him right," Elle replied.

A couple of hours later, my doorbell rang. No one else was home, so I got off my bed and went down the stairs to answer it.

"Wait, here, I'll be right back," I told Elle. She nodded her head.

To my surprise, Jack was standing on my porch with an angry look on his face.

"What the hell, Hallie?" He yelled.

"What do you mean?" I asked innocently.

"I know it was you who called my mom. Why would you do that?" He yelled again.

"You don't have the right to yell at me! You told everyone we slept together when you know that isn't what happened at all!" I shouted.

"You're a whore," he scoffed and tried walking away.

"Excuse me? I am not!" I exclaimed.

He turned back around, "Yeah, you ar-"

He was cut off because I slapped him hard across the face and slammed the door shut.

Oh my gosh, I can't believe I just did that.

"Is everything okay, Hallie?" Elle asked worriedly, coming down the stairs.

"It is now," I answered.
