Brittany got a burst of energy and started
clapping back at the haters.
She posted the file size and called everyone
out.

oul.
“I won’t rush my work; I want quality,
something I can be proud of.”
Everyone loved her.
I looked through the comments and saw one
user, “LoveBrittany4Ever.”
All they posted about was Brittany.
I went through their old pictures and saw
Jake.
He just wanted to make Brittany jealous when
he asked me out after college.
Soon, Brittany’s meet and greet arrived.
She promised she would post the rest of the
book then and there, so everyone could enjoy
- it.
It was a huge draw; the place was packed.
You’d think a pop star was coming.
People held up signs and screamed.
“Brittany’s so pretty!”
“You’re amazing, can you sign my book?”
“I can’t wait for the book to come out; I’m
buying ten copies!”
“Everyone calm down!”
Brittany answered everyone’s questions.
“My college crush was an amazing person,
who is now abroad. He’s the one that inspired
the book.”
“I passed by their classroom after school, and
he was always talking to people.
“I ran with my friends at school or sat in the
cafeteria because I wanted to be close to
him.
“I looked at their social media, and I didn’t
have the courage to tell them.
“He doesn’t know I liked him.”
Brittany acted coy, like a girl talking about
her crush.
Finally, it was time to post.
The rest of the book went up on the screen.
The fans started buying and voting for her
Everyone loved it, and thought the end was
the best part.
People were crying.
Then someone noticed something.
“Wait, what’s this on page 3? The first
letters
spell out something: Brittany Rogers Is A
Copycat?”
Everyone started talking.
Someone said, “Was this a hint that someone
else wrote this?”
“Did we all get scammed?”
The staff took the page down, but a lot of
people saw it.
The fans demanded answers.
Brittany yelled.
“That’s insane! Someone must have changed
my files! This can’t be happening!”
Someone said, “Who could have gotten to
your computer? You always have it on you!”
“Write something for us right now: do
“Yeah, post something, it can’t be that hard.”
Brittany put her hand to her chest and
pretended to have a heart attack.
She passed out.
The staff started freaking out and tried to get
the chapter back.
Jake came up and picked her up.
He glared at me.
At this point, the crowd didn’t care about
Brittany.
“Violet, you did this!”
Jake stared at me like he hated me.
“You’re jealous that she has me, so you are
hurting her!”
“If something happens to her, I’m blaming
you!”
As Jake brushed past me, I said something.
“Jake, do you think I liked you?”
He stopped.
He turned around
“I liked someone else who went to college. I
said yes to you because I needed to heal, and
two…”
I pointed at his face. “You have a mole, just
like him.”
