felt like turning around and giving her a good, solid piece of my mind. Maybe throwing that lack of class comment right back at her — after all, she ’ s the one who ’ s flirted with every guy she came across and slept with at least half of them.
    But Miranda ’ s next words stopped my anger cold.
    “ The only thing she ’ s learned how to do is lie better than before. ”
    My shoulders slumped and I dropped the apples down. I didn ’ t need them anymore. In fact, I put my whole basket down and turned to face Lexie and Miranda. They were both looking right at me, their smiles made of daggers and their eyes sharp like rusted nails.
    They ’ d known I was there all along. Maybe that was even why they ’ d decided to talk to me. Their mutual hatred of me had brought them together and now I had to deal with two enemies determined to make sure everyone knew just what kind of a skank I was.
    And the worst part was, I was pretty sure they were right. I was a bitch. I was messing around with Logan while I was trying to make something with Derek and it didn ’ t matter that I didn ’ t want to hurt either of them. Fact was, I was lying. Even if it was only by omission. Worse still than that was that I was lying to everyone . I was pretending to be this classy girl, this good girl, when inside I knew I was just born for trouble.
    Pretending I was one thing didn ’ t change the fact that I was another.
    I looked at the girls once more, then turned away and left the fresh produce section as quickly as I could. I didn ’ t bother with getting food or anything. I just left as quickly as I could, almost running out the automatic doors and down the street towards home.
    Retracing my steps, I made it across the street, not even bothering to check the street signs or check either way before darting across. I heard horns honking at me, but didn ’ t pay any attention to them. I kept going, my speed picking up until I was running the rest of the way home.
    Emotions swirled through me and all I wanted was to get to my room and pretend that the rest of the world didn ’ t even exist.
    I reached the house out of breath, wheezing and coughing. Yanking open the door, I darted into the hallway and let the door slam behind me. I headed towards the stairs, eager to go to my room, but Kass was in the kitchen and when she saw me come in, she said, “ Hey, Addy, where are the groceries? ”
    I froze and for a moment I didn ’ t know what to tell her. I didn ’ t want to rehash what had happened at the store. It still hurt and I didn ’ t have any defense for myself … I was pretty sure they were right in what they were saying, which made me feel terrible. There was nothing anyone could say to change that.
    “ What ’ s wrong? ” Kass ’ s face had shifted to one of concern and she rushed over towards me. “ What happened? ”
    I didn ’ t know what my face looked like, but based on how concerned Kass suddenly looked, I knew it was bad. Doing my best to pull myself together, I took a deep breath and shook my head. “ I just forgot my card, ” I lied quickly. “ We aren ’ t going to starve if I don ’ t go now … and I — I have some studying to do. ”
    And before Kass could say anything or call me out on my blatant lie, I rushed up the stairs towards my room. I slammed the door closed behind me and locked it. Then I leaned back against it, slumping down to the floor as I finally accepted that I was crying.
     
     
     
     
     

Chapter 6
     
    For the rest of that day, I couldn ’ t get Miranda out of my mind. It wasn ’ t just the conversation she ’ d had with Lexie that was throwing me off, either. It was the fact that she was with Lexie at all. What was she thinking ? That girl was so obviously trouble …
    I tried to push both of the girls out of my mind, but it was impossible. I lay on my bed staring up at the ceiling trying to think of anything else, but I couldn ’ t. All I could think about was the Miranda I
