Hey everyone (: what do you all think of Miley Cyrus's new songs? She really has a gift, doesn't she? ^_^

When I woke the next morning, it took me a moment to remember what happened the night before.

When it all came flooding back into my mind, I wanted desperately to hide under my blankets and never see the light of day again. 

Not only had my parents disowned me, but I'd found out that Hero had slept with Kylie shortly after we'd done things together.

I knew practically everyone had warned me against him. Josephine had been utterly honest and my parents hadn't relented whatsoever.

I didn't want my father to be right. I frowned as I thought about his millions of warnings. I wanted to prove him wrong, just once. But it was clear that would never happen. 

I closed my eyes as I felt my emotions take over. 

"Are you seriously crying again?" 

I looked up, ready to ask Josephine why she was being so mean until I saw someone completely different. Hero was lounging on Josephine's bed, resting his chin on a hand. 

"What are you doing in my dorm?" I demanded angrily, as I wiped at my eyes. "Where's Josephine?"

"Relax, she went down to breakfast. I asked her if I could come in and she let me."

I gasped. There was no way Josephine would have allowed this. I had to have been dreaming. 

"Well, I want you out now!" I yelled pointing at the door. 

Hero sighed. "Kylie and I didn't fuck."

I went silent trying to comprehend what he just said. 

"Then why did you say you did?" I asked, my voice becoming shaky. 

"Because I'm an idiot." Hero replied, without holding his phone under his nose for once. "You were right. When Kylie said all that, something just changed inside me. I didn't want to admit that I have feelings. It's not something I'm used to."

I rubbed my forehead. It was way too early to be talking about something so serious. 

"Why were you and Kylie even together?" 

Hero grunted, sitting up on the bed.

"Kylie and I have history. I won't lie and say we haven't had a lot of fun."

My stomach twisted at his honesty.

"We hung out as friends last night." Hero continued. "I was at the frat and she joined the fraternity for another party."

"Wait," I interrupted. "She was with... the fraternity? I know a few of the girls. There's.... Annie..."

"Oh, yeah," Hero said, "that's like one of Kylie's best friends."

I now felt lightheaded as all this news overloaded my brain. It was too much to handle. 

"Annie never mentioned that to me," I began feeling groggy. "Does that mean that Ellie...?"

Hero shrugged. "I suppose so. They all hang together in a group all the time."

I nodded trying to get this to all sink in. 
"Kylie said she asked you to stay." I began. "Stay where?" 

Hero scrunched his brows together as if in deep thought. "This is going to sound odd, but we were in a room together-"

I couldn't take anymore of what he was saying. I jumped up from my bed, suddenly remembering that I was in my white nightgown. This didn't matter at the moment. 

Hero looked me up and down, smiling appreciatively. 

"I have to go meet Jo at the cafeteria!" I exclaimed making my way for the door. 

"You're still in your pajamas!" Hero yelled. 

I didn't hang around long enough to hear what he had to say.

I can't thank you all enough for 1.8k reads!

Almost 2k!! It's insane. You're all amazing.
