Chapter 28

It had been two weeks since Cassandra and Sebastian looked at one another. Their front seat tyrant of sex made any and all interaction between the two trigger memories that Cassandra had rather forget. 

"God, I'm so nervous Sebastian," Vicky squealed as she waited in front of the bulletin board. Her leg bounced and refused to stop until she saw the list of performers. "I hope I got a part. I don't think I got Diana but I'm sure I got cast as something else."

Mr.Waterford looked at the group of students and rolled his eyes. "I can't put it up if you guys are blocking the board." The crowd of students moved to the side. They watched as he posted the names on the wall. Sebastian took a peak, his eyebrow raised like many of the students when the announcement was posted. 

Cassandra's name wasn't on the board.

"What!"Aurora shouted. "How come Cassandra isn't playing the lead!?"

"Maybe because she sucked," Vicky peeped. 

Aurora scoffed, "the only one who sucked is you! Ms.I want to do Shakespeare because I read a book."

"Oh shut up!"

As time went on, Cassandra found herself wanting the part more and more. A chance to be the star on stage, singing, dancing, being someone else excited her. A chance to be under those bright lights being adored by all was a high she missed. "Mr.Waterford," Cassandra shouted making him turn towards the wide-eyed girl. "I thought... I thought I was good. Why didn't I get the part?"

He sighed, "well. If I'm being honest you were the best. But, Ms.Riveria our lovely principle. Informed me that you weren't allowed to perform at any event. So in turn, you didn't get the part. Ms. Campbell, next year we're doing another musical. I highly suggest you try out again."

Cassandra let out a breath of relief, she was good enough. She wasn't a failure, or a horrible singer or actress. "I will," she smiled. She looked over at Aurora, who was attempting to blow Vicky's head up with her mind. "Come on Aurora, let's go. It's time for lunch." Aurora looked back at Vicky and walked with Cassandra to the lunchroom.

Cassandra could care less about Vicky, she had a swarm of issues at hand. Issues, including her unbeknownst boyfriend and her infidelities. She took a seat at her lunch table that included her friends. Gabrielle and Amy were already seated when the two girls took a seat. "Where's Phillip?"

"Oh, he's getting his wisdom teeth removed. He'll be back tomorrow."

"Ouch, oh! Did you get the part?" Amy asked.

"Well, sorta...see Ms.Riveria told Mr.Waterford not to give me the part because school plays are considered school performances."

"Aww, I'm sorry babes," Amy held Cassandra.

"And what about Vicky?" Gabrielle asked

"She got a part. How? I have no idea. But, I do know that next year I'm guaranteed the lead role for the next musical."

"That's awesome Cassandra," Amy tighten her hold. "But, what are we going to do about Vicky. So she gets the guy and all the popularity that comes with it? That's not fair."

"Oh, the worst thing she could possibly do is be in the play."

"Huh?" The two girls said in unison.

Aurora took out her phone and slid it to the two girls. "Click play...if you dare."

The two girls clicked the white play button on Aurora's phone. The watched as Vicky, the girl who eluded confidence about her acting skills bomb her audition. An inaudible laugh came from the two girls.

"Are you serious? What the hell is this?" Gabrielle laughed. "She could not be serious."

Aurora began to laugh, "right! We couldn't contain ourselves. Do you hear this crap? I thought there were a barrel of dying cats nearby."

Cassandra held back her laugh, as the video played. But like the other girls, a snort followed by a burst of laughter came out of the her when Vicky began to sing. "Jesus! I know I'm not the best when it comes to good taste in music but what the hell is this?" Gabrielle laughed.

"Wait, wait, listen listen," she laughed.

A high note came out of Vicky's mouth making the four girls laugh even more. "We have got to show this to the school. Imagine how embarassing it will be for her? What do you think Cassandra? This could your payback. We can make her into one of those embarrassing memes," Gabrielle sang.

Cassandra bit her lip, she already got payback. But the problem was that Vicky didn't know. If she let her friends share this then this was it. The revenge she wanted.

She would humiliate Vicky. 

"Do it," Cassandra ordered.

Within seconds, the video was sent to the group message the four girls shared. Then it was shared with the cheerleaders than to the football team with the entirety of the school following. Everyone, all throughout the school watched, making the whole cafeteria burst into laughter.

The sounds of Vicky singing echoed throughout the school followed by a series of laughter. The four girls looked towards the table Vicky usually sat at with Sebastian, she wasn't there. "Dammit, I wish we could see her reaction."

"Yeah me too."

In the empty parking lot, bent over in the back seat was Vicky with Sebastian behind her pounding into her. Sex for the two had been the same position as of late, she didn't come over his house as much and Sebastian wasn't too interested in sex with her.

She had to insight it. 

"Ah- I'm about t-" Vicky said before finishing. Sebastian didn't finish, he hadn't been able to finish with Vicky for a while.

He wasn't into it.

He didn't enjoy sex with her anymore.

Sebastian pulled out of her and quickly discarded the condom. Vicky turned and smiled, "you get better and better every time."

"Thanks."

"Do you think lunch is still going on?"

"I don't know." Sebastian pulled up his pants and ignored Vicky as she got cleaned up.

"You wanna skip the rest of school and get a pizza?"

"No, I have a quiz later. But, I'll see you after school."

Vicky's lips went flat, "okay, then. I'll see you after school then." She buttoned up her jeans and grabbed her phone.

"Alright, see you," he murmured.

"Sebastian!" She yelped making him turn towards her. She had a habit of yelling with the littlest things.

He rubbed the back of his head and took his own phone out. "Yeah, Vicky?" His phone was bombarded with videos of Vicky on stage. He knew from her outfit and the location what it was.

Her audition tape.

Sebastian instantly knew what set of girls did it and he held back a laugh. If Vicky wasn't there he would have watched the video and relived the abomination of her performance.

Vicky began to play the video and listened to her own singing voice, she winced. "Who the hell would edit this?" Sebastian eyebrow raised, the video sounded exactly like how she did. He stayed silent in fear he would hurt her feelings. "Sebastian!" She yelled. "Who would do this?"

Sebastian knew who did it. At the audition, there were two girls who hated her and would do something like that to hurt Vicky.

Cassandra and Aurora. 

Vicky passed the parking lot and watched the video. She watched herself on stage and listened to the muffled laughter coming from the two girls. "Those bitches!" Vicky screamed. She walked towards the two doors, prompting Sebastian to go after her.

If Vicky went after the two girls, it would only cause another fight. He didn't want Cassandra to go through that again. "Vicky," Sebastian shouted after her. "Vicky," he repeated stopping the young girl who was seeing red. 

"What!"

"I don't think this is a good idea, Vicky."

She looked up at Sebastian and crossed her arms," they are trying to embarrass me. They posted this edited video of me singing." 

"Vicky, it's not that serious."

"Not that serious! Everyone is laughing at me. They can't get away with this!" She put her hand on the handle.

There were a million reasons why he didn't want Vicky to go after Cassandra. It wasn't because he particularly cared about what happened to Vicky. It was more so that he cared what would happen to Cassandra. 

"Babe, just ignore them. Let's get out of here, let's get a pizza."

All the tension in Vicky's body relaxed when she saw how much Sebastian cared. "Okay, let's go."

Sebastian and Vicky pilled into the car, she tapped her finger on her lap. She was brimming with the anxiety of everyone laughing at her. Vicky knew the video was unedited, it was her voice. She still had the image of Mr.Waterford holding back his own laughter burnt into her brain. 

She was talentless, with no redeeming qualities. She was overweight, too loud with too many pimples and makeup to cover it. 

Vicky had nothing notable about her other than the guy who drove her to the pizza shop. 

Vicky arrived home after eating her fill. She was met with her little brothers in the living room. The two boys with their phones in hand looked up to their sister and laughed. She dropped her bag and took a seat on her couch. "What's so funny?"

The two boys looked to one another and laughed, "nothing," they said in unison. 

She took off her shoes and listened to her brothers giggled before her curiosity took over. She lept from the chair and snatched the phone from their hands. Her eyes widen when she saw herself singing. This wasn't on Instagram or Twitter but on Youtube, the part of Youtube that only kids would be on. 

"How did you guys find this?"

"Well, our favorite Youtuber is reacting to it."

"Reacting?

Vicky watched the video that included her singing. She looked at the way he laughed at her. The way he mimicked her tone. 

She found herself scrolling down to the comments. 

God I hope this is a joke

CHICAGO...GET IT!

She would make a great mime. 

As she read more and more comments her face grew grimmer and grimmer before she knew it, tears began to fall down her eyes and her dreams started to crumble.

Cassandra arrived home after a grueling hour of integration from Ms.Riveria. Aurora plopped herself onto Cassandra's bed while Cassandra took a seat on the edge. "Man, I'm glad Vicky didn't make a big scene. Ms.Riveria would have put us in detention for months or worse, ban me for school performances too."

"Yeah," Cassandra tapped her chin. "But don't you think it's strange. I figured she would go berserk but she didn't say anything, not even a peep."

"Don't worry about it, Cassandra. Her mouth is probably too occupied with sucking Sebastian off to shout." Cassandra grimaced, "besides, who cares. We know she's pissed and no more popularity for her. She's the laughing stock of the school. We won!"

"Yeah...we did."

"And next year, you're going to star in the school musical and we're going to be in a ton of performances together while you date Phillip. Isn't that awesome?"

"Yeah... amazing"
