Fuck you, bitch, he said, but the look he gave her was just as guilty as it was angry, and he scurried away.
Go fuck yourself, you fucking narc! she yelled after him.
What are you talking about? I asked Ali.
He’s a fucking snitch, she seethed. He got busted for pot, so he ratted out Lee so they’d let him cop a plea deal.
Lee was the party guy at the school. A rich kid who liked to slum it. He basically sold dime bags of weed and eightballs of coke, maybe a little LSD and shrooms.
Lee’s a drug dealer, Ali, I pointed out.
She turned on me with fury and hurt. He’s my FRIEND, Fiona.
She only called me ‘Fiona’ when she was pissed at me. Normally it was ‘Nana.’
I refrained from pointing out that Lee had a lot of ‘friends,’ but she saw it in my eyes anyway.
If you’re going to judge him, then you better judge me, too.
You don’t SELL drugs, Ali, I whispered, looking around to make sure there weren’t any teachers to hear.
No, but I BUY them. I USE them. Does that make me a shitty person?
I sighed. No. I love you. You know that. But I wish you wouldn’t do them.
Yeah, I know. But Lee’s my friend, Nana. He doesn’t deserve to do 20 years in jail for selling a little pot here and there.
He got 20 years? I asked, horrified. She was right; Lee was just a goofball partying with his friends. Now his life was over.
And that fucking asshole just walked away scot-free, she fumed as she watched Brian recede in the distance. I’d love to see HIM go to prison. HE’S the one who deserves it… COWARD! she screamed. TRAITOR!
Coward.
Traitor.
Snitch.
Narc.
Ali would never have been any of those.
Not unless the stakes were so high that she was willing to forget who she was.
Not unless they’d broken her first.
“She would have never worked with you people,” I snapped.
“Well, she did.”
“Not willingly.”
“She worked with us of her own free choice,” Eddie said.
“That’s not the same thing as willingly.”
He shrugged. “All the same, she chose to.”
“She hated narcs.”
