to hear anything she’s got to say, I can’t ignore her as she’s speaking so hard that actual spit is flying from her mouth and hitting me in the face.
    “I don’t know what it is about you stupid mute bitches, but I swear if I have to bring another one of you in here and burn the hell out of you so that you learn to leave Dillon alone, I will. If you haven’t already figured it out, he’s mine. Not yours. He will never be yours.”
    She turns from me, toward the friend I bit and I’m thankful for the reprieve. With her looking away, it means her focus isn’t on me anymore which is gonna give me the chance to get out of this before the next part of their sick plan.
    Bringing my arms up around, I dig my nails into her skin until the pressure against my chest starts to lift. Pulling myself off the wall the minute I’m able to move, I push her and as her body lands against the edge of the first bathroom stall, I watch as she flinches from the impact. Seeing my chance, I run for the door, grabbing onto the handle before I feel my hair again being pulled backwards, this time not as strong as before.
    Doing the only thing I can, I twist myself around, tangling my hair even around the girl’s hand, but the minute I lock eyes with the blonde girl behind it, the one I don’t know the name of, I react purely on instinct. Even though I’m tangled up in her fingers, I reach my head forward and with as much force as I can, I slam my head into hers, not caring where it lands, as long as I can break her hold on me.
    She stumbles backward and I see as she does, that she’s got a clump of my hair still tangled around her hand, the one she’s now using to cover her nose. Not waiting around to see just how badly I hurt her, I turn to the door, this time throwing it open as wide as possible and running out into the hall.
    There’s no telling how long I’ve got before they come looking for me, so moving as fast as possible, finally feeling the sting at the back of my head, I race for the stairs. There’s only one place I need to be now and it’s not down here.
    For the first time since I came here four days ago, I need my mom.

    Kayden is bullshitting me.
    There’s no way Cadence is deaf. She told me as much earlier when I asked her if she was gonna talk to me. She just doesn’t like the sound of her own voice so she prefers writing.  I don’t know what Kayden’s game is, if he’s trying to get back at me for all the shit I pulled with him last fall or what, but there’s no way he’s gonna get me to fall for this.
    “You’re full of shit.”
    “Unlike you, I don’t go around spreading shit about people, hacking into their phones and exploiting their most private moments for personal amusement. I don’t want to tell you this, but with everything I’ve seen and heard, I think you deserve to know.”
    “You think you’re so much better than me, but you’re half the r eason things are this way now. You’re the one that put all this shit in motion. You can think you’re better all you want, but you’re still the same douchebag you were when I met you.”
    Where I expect my words to get to him, he stares blankly at me, like everything I just said means nothing. Considering who he’s dating, I figure he would feel at least a little bit of remorse over the things he did when we first started hanging out, but he’s standing here looking at me the exact same way he was when I bumped into him to begin with.
    “You’re not saying anything I don’t already know. I’ve got no problem admitting what a complete asshole I am. That’s where you and I are different. You can’t admit the truth.”
    “I can admit I’m an asshole.”
    “That’s not what I mean. Dude; put your shit with me aside and really listen to what I’m telling you. I’m willing to bet she hasn’t said a word to you even though she can speak. I’m also pretty sure you’ve had moments where you said something to her and she
