My eyes locked with Elias, and I could see it in his intense stare. He knew what she was going to say.
“What?” I replied in one breath, hanging on by a thread.
“Did you see the story that just broke about you and Elias?”
My eyes widened, and I didn’t have to respond.
“Kyle’s team is claiming that you had an affair with Elias and that’s what made him fall into the arms of Amber.”
My jaw fell to the ground.
“And you had sex with Elias on the hood of a car?! Bitch, did you not learn anything from Paris Hilton?”
I couldn’t move.
I was frozen.
Elias didn’t hesitate, grabbing my cell phone out of my hand. “I’m handling it.” He hung up, stepping toward me.
I stepped back. “You knew?”
He cautiously nodded, halting his descent.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I only found out an hour ago, but I’m handling it.”
“What does that mean?”
“It means, I’ll make it right.”
“What did Kyle have from that night, Elias? How bad is the hood fucking?”
“It’s a few clips and photos, and mostly it’s your back. Trust me, beauty, I’m fucking furious, and the thought of it makes me see nothing but red. My team and lawyers are on it, and if he has anything else from that night or the press does, I’ll handle it before it’s leaked.”
“What does that even mean?”
“It means I’ll spend all of my money to make it go away if I have to.”
“That’s extortion!”
“I’ll lose everything before anyone sees you naked.”
I grabbed my face. “How is this happening?”
“Beauty, I promise you?—”
“Stop promising me things!”
He opened his mouth, but his phone rang, and he had to take the call, and I just knew it had something to do with Kyle. So I did the only thing I could. I slid down the wall and ignored the calls and text messages coming through from my parents.
Fully aware we were fucked.
