Chapter 15

It was silly, but as soon as the Hispanic girl disappeared from sight my thoughts went back to what had just happened with the other girls from my squad. Once that happened, I knew I had a very limited time in which to lose Jackson and Tristan unless I was willing to let them see me lose my composure.

They of course didn't want to go. Honestly I would have liked for Jackson to stay, but I couldn't think of a way to send just Tristan away. Tristan was a self-centered jerk—he'd backed me up against the cheerleaders, which counted for something, but not enough for me to let him see me cry.

Jackson had pointed out that it probably wasn't safe for me to hang around unprotected after having pissed off the devil girls, so we came to a compromise. We continued on around the school so that I could sit on the bleachers at the football field and he and Tristan would give me some privacy while staying where they could keep an eye on me in case the cheerleaders from the other team showed back up.

Once I was by myself, I did cry, but only a little. I was still pissed at the other girls enough to take the edge off of the worst of my sadness, but there was no getting around the fact that I was sad. Hair seemed like such a stupid thing to cry over, especially considering the fact that I wasn't sure that I'd survive to graduate, but in a very real sense, Missy and the rest of the squad had won. I'd had to cut my hair and they were going to get off with nothing more than a slap on the wrist.

I didn't want my eyes to get all red and puffy so I forced myself to stop crying after only a minute or so, but it didn't change how I felt, didn't change the fact that the world seemed to be closing in on me.

Sheree found me a couple of minutes after I got control over myself again. "Adri, I just had the oddest conversation with someone."

"What do you mean?"

She handed me a phone which I realized after a second was mine.

"This girl walked up to me and asked if I knew an Adri. I told her yes and she gave me this phone. It's yours, isn't it?"

I unlocked it and confirmed that it was displaying my background and that the contacts were mine.

"Yeah, I guess it is."

"How did she get ahold of it?"

I'd been busy asking myself that same question.

"A dark-haired girl, Hispanic-looking and who maybe looked like she'd been in a fight recently? She would have been wearing a peasant top?"

"Yeah, that was her, do you know her?"

I shook my head. "Not really. I…ran into her earlier on the other side of the school. She must have stolen my phone when she stumbled and grabbed ahold of me for balance."

"That's really odd, why would someone steal a phone and then give it back?"

"I really wish I knew.
