Winter's P.O.V

"This makes no sense at all." Cole says once I finish explaining to the boys and my mom what happened yesterday when Amanda came up with this lovely idea to call Gemma Hill, call her a bitch, and somehow find out how she got the tapes from Phillip.

"I'm calling your father." My mom says as she stands up from sitting on the couch and makes her way into the kitchen to go ring my father.

By the way, my father hasn't been back since he left on Monday night. He hasn't even called to tell me or my mother what he has found out or if he has found out anything. I'm not worried of course, it's just that I thought he would call us at the end of the day but I guess not.

"Why the hell would she just blurt that out to a random stranger anyway?" Alec asks as he furrows his eyebrows in confusion. I nod in agreement and so does Amanda.

"But... I find it kind of funny that Gemma thought of you as a guy. You must really pull of the voice of a man-" Hayden's words get cut off when Amanda slaps him on the shoulder, hard. I chuckle and shake my head at the two.

"Knowing Gemma, she must be up to something to do that." Sam says and I sigh.

"Thats what we thought but we just don't know what." I say. In the corner of my eye, I see a grin form onto Alec's face when he looks at his phone and I look at him.

"What are you smiling about?" I ask him and Alec stands up and puts his phone in his pocket.

"I'll see you guys at school later." Alec says, the grin still not off his face. I nod and he walks out the door shutting it behind him.

I had a feeling it had something to do with Cassidy.

Ever since Cole and Alec made up from the whole 'taking advantage of Cassidy' thing, Alec and Cassidy have been talking more. The other night, Alec took her out on a date to a carnival somewhere and when Alec came home, his bright smile was stuck on his face and still there when he woke up. I knew he had a good night with Cassidy and I'm pretty sure everyone knew that too.

I wouldn't be suprised if they get back together soon.

"Ugh shit, we are going to be late again." I hear Cole say and I sigh. I quickly kiss my mom goodbye after walking into the kitchen to find her on the phone to my father. I quickly grab my bag and walk out the door with Sam's hand in mine. Amanda, Cole and Hayden get into the SUV while I walk towards the beautiful car.

"Ugh, can I have this when you don't want it?" I ask Sam as he walks to the other side of the car.

"Winter, I will always want it. It's not like some toy you just got rid of. This-" Sam taps the top of the Lamborghini. "-is always going to be mine." Sam says with a smirk and I sigh, getting into the car.

One day, Sam. One day.

"So students, if the triangle equals up to 180 degrees, what does the square equal up to?" I hear the teacher ask but I feel myself zoning out once again.

"Winter, do you mind answering this?" When I hear my name being said, I raise my head up and look around the class. Amanda chuckles next to me and I roll my eyes and look at the teacher.

"Uhm..." I start, trying to remember what the hell a square equals up to in algebra. I feel a foot kick my chair and I look behind to see Gemma holding a piece of paper by her face but out of the teachers sight. I look at the paper and see that it reads '360 degrees' in neat hand writing.

I look at the teacher and straighten my back. "360 degrees?" I say but it came out more like a question like I was questioning my answer.

I mean, Gemma's answer.

"Correct." The teacher says as he writes the answer on the board. I lay my head on the desk and close my eyes, letting my thoughts take over the sound of the teacher talking.

Okay, why did Gemma do that? It's not like her to give me the answer... especially the right answer to a question the teacher asks me to solve, not her, me! I mean, yeah, she does kick my chair but not for the exact same reason she just did. She usually kicks my chair to annoy me, not to get my attention and give me the answer to the question.

Has Gemma changed or something? Like, just because she got yelled at by her brother and most likely her dad because she was bullying me and putting her brothers scholarship at risk doesn't mean she has to completely change?

It's actually starting scaring me.

●●●

I can feel her eyes staring into the back of my head and it's really uncomfortable not just for me but for everyone else at my table. Since Gemma is staring at me, the whole table has to also stare at me because Gemma, the girl that torments, bullies and annoys me is staring at me. I mean, Gemma staring at me is enough... I don't need everyone else to join in too.

"I think she wants your food..." Hayden whispers and Amanda slaps Hayden on the shoulder again and it seems like she has done that the millionth time today. Hayden groans and Amanda rolls her eyes.

"Stop being such a baby." Amanda says and when everyone stops staring at me, I know Gemma stops too. I sigh and rest my head on Sam's shoulder.

"I'm really curious now." I start and Amanda looks up at me with a grin.

"I know. I have a feeling I should call her right now." Amanda whispers and I narrow my eyes at her.

"Your basically asking for a death wish." I say and Sam nods but Cole shakes his head at the both of us.

"No, that is actually a good idea. Amanda, go to the bathroom and call her and we can see if Gemma will say what we want to hear." Cole whispers to the table and I shake my head.

"What if she gets curious and knows it's Amanda?"

"I doubt it." Cole says and he looks at Amanda and she nods. Amanda stands up and walks to the bathroom, her heels clicking against the floor. I roll my eyes when I see Hayden smirking at Amanda.

"Pervert." I say and Hayden shrugs.

"She's mine so I'm aloud too. Besides, I don't see Amanda saying no."

"Thats because she isn't here, dumbass. I'm pretty sure she would slap you again." Sam says and I laugh.

"Hey, hey, hey! Guess who's back!" I hear a voice say from behind and we all look behind us to see Alec smiling. I laugh and shake my head as Alec sits next to me.

"So what's going on? What did I miss? Nothing, I hope." Alec says, taking a chip from my packet. Cole fills Alec in and when he's finished, Alec shakes his head.

"Bad idea."

"Thats what I said!" I say and Alec nods. Cole shrugs and takes a sip of his coke.

"Too late, I hear a phone ringing." Cole says and I look to where Gemma was sitting and see that she was looking through her handbag, probably to try and find her phone. When she grabs it, she looks at the Caller ID and she sighs.

Gemma stands up and walks out of the cafeteria. I furrow my brows at her actions and Alec shakes his head.

"I still think this is going to go badly." Alec says and I nod.

●●●

Ten minutes have passed and Amanda is still in the bathroom and Gemma is still not back. Cole has been looking at the cafeteria doors, waiting for Gemma while I have been looking at the bathroom door, waiting for Amanda to walk out.

Suddenly, the cafeteria doors open and I look over to see that Gemma has finally walked through. I look back at the bathroom doors to see that Amanda has walked out and is making her way to the table.

"What the hell have you been up to in there?" I hear Cole ask, probably trying to make it not look suspicious that Gemma and Amanda came back into the cafeteria around the same time.

Smart move, Cole.

"Well when I got there, I was only going to fix up my makeup until I found a ketchup stain on my shirt so yeah. It came out after minutes of washing and rubbing it, trying to get it out."

"Your not even eating anything with ketchup though?" Hayden says, completely confused. Amanda glares at him.

"No but you are which proves that you did it." Amanda says and slaps Hayden once again. Everyone at the table laughs.

"Can't keep you hands off me?" Hayden asks but of course, this earns another slap but this time, to the face.

"Nope." Amanda says, flashing a grin at Hayden. Hayden groans and places his hand on his cheek.

"So?" I ask. Amanda looks at me and grins and when I saw that grin, I knew she found out what we all wanted to hear.
