This chapter is very eventful lol.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Avery missed school today to help keep me company.

I couldn't go to school today since the news of Belleza and I's 'secret relationship' is still spreading.

I honestly thought that people would be over this by now.

I guess not.

"Aspen, did you invite anyone over?" Avery asks with a confused facial expression as she turns to face me

"I invited Belleza but she's not coming until tonight" I inform her

Her eyebrows scrunch together as we hear another knock at the front door.

Avery quickly gets up and unlocks the door before peeking out of it.

"What are you doing here?" Avery asks with a disgusted

I wonder who she's talking to?

"I'm here to see my girlfriend" Megan says with an annoyed tone

Ugh.

Is she serious right now?!

"I'm not your girlfriend" I say as I get up from my couch and walk over to the door

"Babe" She says excitedly as she meets my eyes

Avery slowly steps out of the way so that I can talk to Megan but she stays behind the door.

She seems tense.

"Megan we've talked about this" I say with an exhausted tone

She rolls her eyes before smiling again.

"Aspen, can I come in?" She asks

She says my name as if it physically hurts her to say it.

Before I can respond Avery cuts me off.

"Aspen, can I talk to you?" She requests with an urgent tone

I give her a look of confusion before I turn to Megan and give her an apologetic look.

I close the door and turn to face an emotionless Avery.

"What?" I ask her with a sigh

"You can't let her in" she says with a hard tone

What?!

"Why can't I?" I question with a raise of my brow

She crosses her arms as she leans against the wall.

"Aspen, I'm not supposed to tell you this, but she's bad news" Avery says

I see a glimmer of worry in her eyes as I stare at her.

"How is she bad news?" I ask with a confused facial expression

I suddenly feel my head start to ache.

Oh my goodness.

What's going on?!

My head has been hurting way worse than normal lately.

"She has problems mentally" Avery says with a hesitant tone, as if she wants to stop the words from coming out of her mouth

"Are you serious?" I ask her

"Why would I lie about this?" She says with a serious tone

I don't answer her as I open the door again.
