After the basketball game, Alex got a fan club
full of girls.
I ran into her at the bathroom and said, “This
girl in our class keeps bugging my brother,
he’s about to lose it.”
“I can’t believe how shameless some girls are.
He turns her down every time, but she just
won’t take the hint. It’s really messing with his
head.”
“If only someone could get her to stop.”

Sure enough, Crystal came out of the
bathroom that afternoon soaking wet, but she
knew she had it coming, so she didn’t tell the
teacher.
I hate bullying, and I’ve helped a lot of girls in
the past.
But for some reason, it made me happy to
see her get picked on.
After getting harassed for a couple weeks,
Crystal finally gave up and asked the teacher
to move her to the low achiever class.
The drama finally ended after six months.

The slacker class had a rich playboy named
Nick.
He was hot, and he knew it.
I saw Crystal go into the bathroom, and I
slowly followed her with another girl from my
class.
“Nick is so hot, ask him if he has a girlfriend,”
I said to my friend.
“OMG, does our Maggie have a crush? He’s
hot, and he’s got money!”
“He seems like he’d be hard to get, though.
He looks like such a man, but that’s how I like
it.”
“Totally, me too. He’s way hotter than your
<
brother.”
Crystal and Nick started dating, and she
would flaunt him in front of me.
Every time she did, I’d turn away so she
wouldn’t see me laugh.
She thought I was jealous, which made her
even more proud.
Nick’s family owned a bunch of clubs, so he
was used to partying hard.
He was into a lot of stuff, and he didn’t care
how old you were.
While I was looking at the pics, Alex popped
up behind me, snatched my phone, and
turned red.

“You looking at this stuff?”
I smiled. “You wanna see? We can look
together.”
Alex saw who it was and handed me back my
phone.
