I bend down to pick my phone up and inspect it. Thank God it isn’t broken. The first thing I do is call my pilot and inform him I need a flight right away. I need to get out of here. That video is all over the fucking internet and I can’t imagine the shitstorm that will be heading my way.

My chest aches with the pain inside of it. Once again, Mason has proven that I can’t trust him. His niceness was probably just an act so that he could stab me in the back, using this video by putting it out for the world to see.

The next thing I do is get an Uber to take me to the airport. This is all too much, and I need to go see my dad’s grave. That’s the only thing that might bring me some peace and I’ve been meaning to visit there anyway.

I clean my face up as best as I can before I limp my way out of the bathroom to go outside to wait for the car to get here. As soon as I step into the hallway, I can see everyone on their phones and the whispering and murmurings start. Some of them are even pointing to me and I have no doubt what they’re all seeing right now.

How could I have been so fucking stupid to trust him again? My whole world is shattering around me once again and I can’t do anything to stop it. I walk as fast as I can to get outside as I feel my airways constricting. I’m suffocating and it hurts so bad. I make it to the parking lot in front of our university when I hear yelling.

“How could you? I’ve tried to be there for you, but you keep pulling all this shit. I’m fucking done with you and I’m leaving!” I hear Riley yell at Royce.

“Did you fuck her?” Avery yells at Beckett with tears streaming down her face.

“Why?” Luna asks Nate while tears are streaming down her face as well.

Fuck! I feel miserable because this is all my fault. I go to walk toward them but think better of it since this doesn’t seem like a good time. I start backing away but Riley spots me and I see the hatred and pain in her eyes.

She rushes toward me and before I know what’s happening, she lands a slap across my face. I lift my hand up to touch my already bruised cheek.

“How could you? I thought you were our friend, but you went and fucked all of them behind our backs!” Riley is screaming. I look up to see the crowd we’ve gathered and almost everyone has their phones up videoing.

“I-I’m sorry! I don’t know what happened. I don’t recall anything that happened that night. All I remember was waking up and seeing them there,” I say through tears of my own, but she’s too pissed to listen to a word I’m saying. She jumps on me and we both go crashing onto the ground.

“How could you when you know how we felt about the guys? You’ve been such a horrible friend since you came back here!” she screams in my face as she slaps me again.

“I’m so sorry. I never meant to hurt you guys!” I tell her through my sobs.

“You should have fucking died when you tried to kill yourself! Maybe then none of us would be in this situation!” she snaps and my face crumples at her words. I feel nothing but the pain in my chest as it grows. She lets out a gasp, finally realizing what she just said. “Win, I didn’t—” she starts but gets cut off when Royce pulls her off me. I scramble to my feet and back away from them all.

“Winter,” Grayson calls but I just keep moving. I see Mason coming out the door and take off in a run when I see my Uber pull up.

“Winter! Stop!” Mason yells as he starts to run.

“Please go! I need to get out of here!” I yell at the driver, and he takes off a second later. The tears finally start again. Her words hurt but I guess it hurt more to see that video. Once again, everything just went to shit.
