CHAPTER 6:
Relentless.
Quinn

"Still not gonna talk?" Kyler hovered over me as I did my work in the library.

Asshole.

"Come on, just one word?" I ignored him.

"Fucking bitch, we know you're-" I screamed and the librarian looked over at me.

"Kyler! I'm calling the principal!" Him and his friends ran out before she could even pick up the phone and I smiled at her.

"Thank you."

"One of these days, those boys are gonna get what they deserve. And I won't stop it," She smiled back at me and I returned back to my work.

Why isn't he texting me back?

I wondered, glancing at my phone every few seconds. I thought Eli and I actually had a moment last night, but I guess not because after I texted him goodnight, he didn't respond.

Eli always responds to my goodnight texts.

And then I texted him this morning, three hours ago, an hour ago, and only a few minutes ago.

Eli?

Eli, did I do something?

I'm sorry.

Please answer.

I felt horrible but I didn't even know what I did wrong.

"Quinn? Can I talk to you? It's an emergency," Sam and I weren't on the best of terms, especially after what she did to Aisha yesterday.

But I never knew how to say no.

"I saw what Kyler did to you and your friends earlier, they were in here too."

Wait, they were here?

Why didn't they invite me?

What's going on?

"And it was so unlike him. Why would Kyler bully them? Bully you? It doesn't make. . .sense. . ." She stopped as she watched me write out my response to her.

"Kyler has always been an asshole, you just refused to see it unless it was infront of you. I'm sorry, but he's a dick."

"He's. . .he's always done this?" I nodded yes.

A pretty girl like Sam with a rich house and a nice car wouldn't notice stuff like this. Then again, I'm in the same boat as her with Eli.

"Can I ask you for advice?"

She nodded, "of course."

"You saw me and Eli dancing yesterday, right? Well now he won't talk to me. I don't understand what I did wrong."

"Did anything happen after? Did you say something that might have hurt his feelings?"

"No. All I did after was eat and dance with Miguel for a bit, and then we all went home."

She let out a small smile after reading it, and I looked at her questioningly.

"You danced with Miguel right after dancing with Eli? It sounds like jealousy," I looked baffled and quickly wrote.

"Jealous? No, Eli doesn't look at me that way."

"You're joking, right?" She questioned, "he's had the biggest crush on you since middle school. I remember Aisha and I bet you guys would get married."

My cheeks turned hot at the mention of her betting on my love life, and marrying Eli. I mean, I drew Quinn Moskowitz on my journals when I was in middle school, but I never actually thought that he would feel the same way. That he might crush on someone like Moon for the rest of his life.

"Are you sure?"

"I'm positive. Thanks for the advice, and good luck."

Hope you guys enjoyed! Obviously Miguel and Quinn are not gonna happen, but I don't think Quinn will rest easy after the party in the canyons.
