Allyson: Lindsay told Dodge about the guy from New Jersey.

Samantha: She did not.

Allyson: Oh yes, the little shithead ran for the door when he came over just now. I was standing right behind her when she blurted it out. Swear to God I'm going to kill her.

Samantha: omg, Owl!!! What did he say?

Allyson: Nothing at first. He just stood there turning beet red. Then he asked if it was true and I couldn't answer. I couldn't even look him in the face!!! Do you believe me now? That evil little PAIN IN MY ASS just ruined my entire life!

Samantha: Your life is not ruined. Where is Dodge now? Go talk to him.

Allyson: What am I going to say?

Samantha: What you were already planning to tell him. The NJ guy made the first move. It's not something you wanted.

Allyson: I'm not even convinced I believe that myself, because I didn't pull away. I kissed him back! I betrayed Dodge!!

Samantha: You did not—you guys aren't a couple! Maybe if he'd worked harder on making his move, you wouldn't have been tempted.

Allyson: Nope. I'm just a weak, horrible person. I wanted my first kiss to be with Dodge and I know he wanted that too. Our coupledom was imminent and I betrayed him.

Samantha: I'm sorry, Owl. I know it feels really bad now, but it's going to be okay. I promise.

Allyson: No it's not. Because I'm going to kill Lindsay, and then my parents are going to kill me. So goodbye sweet Sammy Bear. Good luck finding a new BFF. <3

Samantha: lol (Funny, not funny)

Samantha: Ally?

Samantha: Hey, where'd you go?

Samantha: I'm calling your house right now. PICK UP THE PHONE!!!
