After practice that day, Nate had rushed into the changing room and called Mckay. It didn't take long for him to answer.

'Hey man' Mckay said with a knowing tone

Mckay was dumb, but he wasn't stupid. He knew why Nate was calling and what he wanted to say.

'Dude what the fuck?' Nate screamed as he made his way of the of changing room, 'I thought you were not going to say anything?'

'Woahh let me remind you of something' Mckay trailed on, 'You were the one who took the money. You didn't have to take it'

'I took it to help to someone' Nate said simply

'Who?' Mckay asked

'It's complicated' Nate said simply and tried to change the conversation, 'Now Lily knows and I'm fucked'

'Should've just told her whatever the fuck is the truth' Mckay laughed slightly, 'You're the only one who seems to know the truth at this point. I thought it was a joke when we both made the bet, but when you came to my house weeks later, I just let you have the money'

'At the carnival' Nate begun, 'I wasn't being serious about fucking her for a bet'

'So you fucked her by choice?' Mckay asked

Nate scoffed slightly at his comment, 'Yeah...and I ended up falling for her. I've always liked her'

'Okay sorry fuck' Mckay teased slightly, 'Well I wish you luck trying to solve this. Maddy fucking hates you. Can't come back from that my brother'

...

It was 4am. Lily had heard her alarm go off loudly next to her. She slowly rose up her what felt like a dead sleep.  

'Why are you up at 4am?' Lexi asked closing her laptop slightly

'Why are you up at 4am?' Lily responded with the same question as she got out of her bed.

Lexi simply didn't want to fight her on this and instead, began writing down what she saw into her notes.

LOLA: I think there is something happening with her. Possible meltdown?

'Lily what are you doing up?' Cassie moaned with her eyes half closed

She simply ignored both of her sister's comments and closed the bathroom door behind her. Taking in a deep breath, she got into the shower and began to think about how she wanted to approach this. Her being angry was an understatement. She was not only furious, but she felt completely embarrassed by his actions. She was now out of the shower and looking at her own reflection. What a sad reflection...she couldn't believe the person she had become after falling in love with Nate. She scoffed at the idea of his stupid face yesterday and how he was the one crying? She simply couldn't relate to him and thought how much of an embarrassment he was.

Lily pulled out her phone and turned it up to full volume, before deciding to do her makeup. She scrolled through her phone and blasted Kat's spotify playlist. She immediately put on Billie Ellish's song, Happier than Ever. She begins to wash her face furiously with her face wash and thinks of all the ways she could ruin Nate's life.

'Is that Billie Ellish?' Cassie asked softly

'Yep' Lexi responded without looking up from her laptop, 'I'm surprised it's not reputation by Taylor Swift'

At that moment, the sound of Taylor Swift's " Look What You Made Me Do'' could be heard from the bathroom.

Cassie sat back with a scared, but impressed expression, 'Well there it is'

'Yeah she's fucking losing it' Lexi commented simply as she closed her laptop.

The girls had finally arrived at school that day. It was a given that they all went their separate ways, but not today. Cassie and Lexi seemed to have an unspoken agreement of keeping their sister safe and out of the grip of Nate Jacobs. Although, it would be hard to do. Lily walked into school that day looking better than she had ever looked. Even though the clothes she was wearing were Cassie's, she simply didn't care.

Here's the thing. Lily wasn't going to lie. She wanted to get his attention. She wanted him to see what he was truly missing and Nate... he was stupid enough to take the bait. Nate happened to notice her when she walked past.

Every. Single. Fucking. Time.

Walking down the hall. He noticed the hem of her skirt was shorter than she usually wore it. In class, he would notice her new eyeshadow look and the smoothness of her exposed legs. At lunch, when she was standing next to Maddy with her hair pulled into a cute ponytail. It made him think about all of the things he could do, while pulling that stupidly cute ponytail tight. Or the time she walked out of her English class and down the stairs. Nate had just finished his class across the hall when their eyes met for a moment. Nate watched her walk down the stairs and towards Maddy. The sight of her curvy hips and ass was driving him fucking insane. Lily Howard would be the death of him.

'He can't stop looking at you' Maddy laughed, 'But out of sight, out of mind'

Lily simply nodded and said, 'Exactly!'

Yeah. Fuck you Nate Jacobs.
