Audrey & Third Person

Audrey's POV

"A human like her never should have been allowed to compete.

"I know, right? She got involved in something she shouldn't have, and now look at her..."

"Karma's a b**h. She'll see."

I tried to block out the words of the other students, just focusing on getting back to my dorm room-somewhere I could be alone, cry in peace, Just a little bit further, and I would be safe. "Didn't she sleep with Professor Brooks, too?"

"I thought that was just a rumor. But now, I'm not so sure...

"No wonder.. A human like her could only get ahead like that if they sleep with someone important."

As I hurried down the hall toward my dorm, I fumbled in my pocket for my keys. Just a little bit further-I could see my door beckoning to me from here, blissful solitude waiting for me. Blinking away my tears, I located my keys, keeping my head down so as not to attract any more unwanted attention.

But before I could reach my door, a familiar figure stepped into my path.

Linda.

"Well, well,” she sneered, her lips curling upwards into a cruel smile. "If it isn't the dirty little cheater herself."

I skidded to a halt, my hands clenching into fists at my sides as I lifted my gaze to look at her. "You," I spat. "You leaked that photo, didn't you?”

Linda laughed, the sound grating on my already frayed nerves. "Oh, sweetie. You think that I was the one to leak the

I shrugged and folded my arms across my chest. "I can't think of anyone else who would. You've had it out for me since the beginning, Linda."
