I was sat in English. Mr Gallagher hadn't even looked my way. All I got was a simple nod and a reminder that I still had two weeks of detention.

I couldn't concentrate on anything that he was saying. My skin felt like it was on fire.

"In order to pass this class you still need to sit your final exam. You'll get your assignments back at the end of the week".

"So we all passed sir?". Trevor asked

"Barely". He smirked. "But yes you all passed. Some better than others mind you".

"Thank god for that". Abby sighed. "I struggled with that one".

"Same. I'm not sure I done enough".

"I'm sure you did". She smiled. "Can I ask you something?".

"Yeah".

"Are you still involved with Jake Taylor?".

"Involved?". I laughed. "That makes me sound old but no I'm not. How come?". I had a feeling she had heard what happened.

"I heard something but-....

"Settle down everyone". Mr Gallagher interrupted. "Although your assignment is finished it doesn't mean there isn't work to do". He glanced my way. "Your final exam isn't that far away". "What did you hear?". I whispered.

"That he was with something else". She whispered.

Even though I already knew the truth it still hurt to hear it coming from someone else. If she knew how many other people knew?

"But it's just rumours right?".

Smiling I shook my head. I wish it was just rumours.

"That asshole". She huffed.

"Abby is there a problem?". Mr Gallagher asked.

"Oh-.. no sir sorry".
