《The Academy 3》34

Advertisement

I was lying in bed like a depressed person. I had baggy sweats on and an oversized hoodie. Wasn't my signature look, so I really did look like a homeless person. The only positive thing that's happened in the past few days was the boot I had gotten. I no longer had to wheel around. I was playing Lana Del Ray to cheer me up. Ironic? I know.

I heard my door be thrown open. I groaned at Tamsin's annoying face. I placed the hoodie on my head and drew the drawstring so I wouldn't have to see her. I heard Tamsin walk closer until I felt my bed dip. She then released the drawstring, so that I could see her. She had a nervous look on her face. Why does she look constipated?

"Do you need to use my bathroom or something?" She was confused. "Or did you run out of toilet paper?" She glared and hit me.

"I need to tell you something and I'm really nervous about it." She sat up. She pulled her knees to her chest. She wrapped her arms around her knees and rested her chin atop. "I think you'll hate me after I tell you this." She mumbled.

"Tamsin, I can't hate you more than I already do." I gave her a teasing smile, but she only lowered her eyes. "Tamzi, I'm joking. I don't hate you. You're my sister. I may not always show it, but I do love you-"

"I'm the reason Nic kissed Willa." I arched a brow at her. "I blackmailed Willa into seducing Nic. I made her kiss Nic and take a picture so that I could out her at school." She quickly said. "I didn't know that she was dating you or-"

"Leave." I said through gritted teeth.

"Ali, I'm sorry-"

"Now, dammit!" She flinched. "First, you had Rohan try to rape her! You wanted it filmed so you could distribute the tape around the school! You wanted to-"

"YOU WHAT?!" Zara was livid and marched into the room. "YOU PAID A GUY TO RAPE HER?! HOW SICK ARE YOU?!"

"Tamsin, why would you-" Gem got caught off by Zara.

"You are a disgusting animal! You don't deserve-"

"Get out, Tamsin." I seethed. "You have been the problem from the start of my relationship-"

"I took the blame for you!" Tamsin cut me off. "I tried to take the blame from you updating her scholarship, but she knew it was you and not me." She began crying. "I'm trying to right my wrongs. I'm so sorry!"

"Tamsin-"

"No, Gemma! She doesn't get pity. She needs to be held accountable for her actions." Zara stated.

"So if it wasn't for you, then Nicola would've never cheated on me." I wondered aloud. "You're really making it hard for me not to hate you Tamsin." I narrowed my eyes at her.

"You had her get raped!" Zara yelled.

Zara was out of character. She was furious. Normally, she's blasé. I'm especially confused since I've never seen her get so mad about Tamsin harming someone else.

"No! He didn't go through with it-"

"I saved her." I glared at Tamsin. "With his pants down, about to enter her, I ripped him off her." I spat. "If I was a second too slow-"

"I was raped." All eyes went to Zara. "I was raped by Ben and-" She broke down in Gem's arms. "He-He drugged me and then... he kept going. He refused to stop when I was begging him. It-It hurt and..." She was hysterically crying.

"Z." Tamsin and I got up to hug our sister.

"Why-"

"I was humiliated." She choked out. "I didn't want you guys thinking any lesser of me." She clung onto her twin. "It scarred me from trusting men. That's why I didn't want to be with Ryder. I was scared he'd hurt me the same way." She then dryly chuckled. "I guess that's one of my secrets."

"Chico and I were on the wrong side of Brazil." Gemma began. "We were then threatened to deliver some weed. We then got caught by the cops." She sighed. "I always made it sound like it was ours, but we were actually threatened by a gang to deliver the stuff."

"I'm the reason Laurens was addicted to cocaine." Tamsin admitted. "I used to do it recreationally and got Laurens to try it. I immediately stopped when he got addicted to the substance." She wiped a tear. "I had trailed him to an alley once and saw that he was trying to buy a brick. The guy wanted more money, but Laurens yelled that the guy was ripping him off. The guy pulled a gun. Laurens had seen me and stood protectively in front of me. They guy mugged us and ran off." She took a shaky breath. "That was the start of Laurens being open to sobriety."

"Skye had pressured me into sleeping with her. She played mind games and fucked me up mentally. She made it hard for me to trust and love others. I kept my heart cold and built a brick wall around it." I sighed.

"Ali, I'm so sorry for what I did. I regret it everyday." Tamsin held my hands. "Please forgive me."

"You should be saying those words to Nicola and not me." I yanked my hands away. "When she decides to forgive you, come back to me."

I went to leave, but I heard the sound of my phone. I scrunched a brow and walked over to it. My eyes widened at the text:
