So the week was going by kind of slowly. Max and I had barely seen each other and Mads had a new study buddy for history. I was on my way to class when I saw some people whispering and staring at me. I got to math class and sat in the back as usual. I went to read someone's mind to see what all the whispering was about and it turned out someone was starting rumors about me. Someone was saying that I was pregnant now. I wasn't fat or anything, I was thin with the right curves and defiantly a flat stomach. So I didn't understand the rumor that I was still a virgin for crying out loud. A girl was sitting next to me. I knew who exactly she was. Her name was Scarlet Smith, the mean girl in school and queen B, and I mean B as in b***h, its no surprise she doesn't like me. She doesn't really like anyone, but for some reason she was extra hating on me lately.
"So I heard you were pregnant. Is it true?" I rolled my eyes at her " Don't roll your eyes at me you stupid b***h I will kick your ass prego or not." She hissed at me
"f**k off Scarlet, I don't have time for your shit." Just as she was about to say something to me, the teacher walked in, shutting her up and making her move seats. Thank god.
After class, a few guys surrounded me "so I hear your putting out now" the tall one said getting closer. As the other two blocked me from escaping.
"What do you want from me?" I asked, scared.
"What the hell are your eyes red for right now?" One of them asked "Never mind, you were here to see what you have to offer the captain of the football team."
"Nothing. I have nothing to offer any of you. Now get away from me", I said loudly, hoping someone would help me. I know Max and Mark usually walk this way at this time.
"Aww come on babe don't be like that", he said and is really close now and he brushed his hand against my cheek.
"Stop leaving me alone", I turned away and said it even louder now. The tall one is about to say something again but is cut short when he is pulled back and thrown against the wall and the other two run away. I look up to see who saved me from that guy and I see Mark standing in front of the guy and Max is just standing off to the side holding his books, watching the whole thing. Mark saved me? Even though Max was the one with super-natural strength and senses. But Mark, my non-boyfriend, one who does not have super-natural strength, is the one saving me what the hell. I stared between the both of them, confused, as all hell Max was just sitting there like this was normal like he didn't do anything wrong. Honestly, it made Mark that much hotter that he saved me and my current boyfriend did not do anything but watch. I ran back to my room crying, thinking my boyfriend didn't care about me enough to save me. Like what the hell, but his best friend, who hates me, saved me. I text Mads to come over ASAP and to not let either of the boys come over at all. So that way I could tell her about everything that happened.
*****************************************************************
After Mads got there, I told her everything that happened, from the whispers to Scarlet to Mark saving me and not Max. She looks at me completely dumbfounded.
"Scarlet is probably the one who started the rumor in the first place to try and distract everyone from her own hoenness."
"Probably, but still why me of all people this week does she have to hate on me this week?" I groaned and lay back onto my pillows as I stuffed my face with salt and pepper kettle chips.
"Who knows, but like you said you are this week's flavor, next week she will forget all about you and move on, especially if you don't give into her and react. Just keep ignoring her and she will go away." She grabs a handful of chips as well.
"I guess, but it's still so annoying... Anyway, next topic, Mark saving me instead of Max. What is that about??" I sat up again, looking at her so I could see her reaction.
"I don't know, isn't Max suppose to be the one with super strength and super senses?"
"Yeah, so with that and the fact that I am his girlfriend, why didn't he save me? Why did he just stand there and watch Mark, his best friend, save his girlfriend like what the f**k? And then just sit there and stare at me like it was supposed to be normal, like Mark was supposed to be the one saving me and that he was not in the wrong."
"I know it is so weird. Like Max is your boyfriend, he should have saved you from those guys. I am surprised Mark saved you. It's so not like him. I would have figured my brother was the type like Max to just sit there and not do anything. I thought he would be like afraid to do something. But I am super glad that he didn't, especially if Max wasn't going to do something. You should talk to them and try to read their minds to see if you see the memory of how it happened."
"Omg Mads, that is a brilliant idea. You are a genius."
"I know you are welcome. And no matter what, you will get answers."
"You are correct. Even if neither one shows me the memory, I can just ask them what happened and get answers that way. Some times I really love you Mads", we laugh and eat our chips before crashing for the night.
