Hey Im sorry I had to bring these over, but

Cecilia cut Alice off. Nothank you. Im glad you came over. Cecilia paused and looked down at the floor before continuing. I had no idea she took pictures

How could you have not known? Marina asked with anger in her voice turning to face Cecilia. How could you?

I didnt know! The little ***** must have hidden the camera or something! Cecilia said quickly not knowing if Marinas anger was directed at her or the girl in the photos. She held out the pictures for Marina to see again. Lookthe camera angle never changes see? And they arent exactly centered are they? Do I ever turn to the camera? NO now look at her shes looking right at it! She had the ***** thing hidden! Cecilia pointed out all of these details as Marina took the pictures to look at again.

Is this Jessica? Marina asked quietly. The rage in her voice barely contained.

Jessica? That chick Shane had with her that one time? Alice asked moving towards them.

Yes its her.

*****! Alice said sitting in the chair opposite the two shocked and angry women.

She filed a complaint with the school as well. I have to go there Friday with an attorney, Cecilia said with no emotion in her voice.

Well Ill do everything I can to keep this out of the press and off the news. I have plenty of connections that can help with that part. Alice paused before asking her next question. You didnt really do it did you? I mean sleep with her for a grade?

NO! How could you

Hey I was just asking! Had to ask ya know? Cecilia nodded her head knowing that her friend didnt mean anything by her question. And by the way nice *****! Alice winked and smiled at Cecilia. Leave it to Alice to make Marina and Cecilia laugh at a time when laughter was the last thing on their minds.

Thanks

Could you autograph one of those for me? I mean I know its not one of your books and all Cecilia and Marina both grabbed pillows from the couch and threw them at Alice. She put her hands up and defended herself from the assault: her smile never leaving her face. OK so no autograph. What do you want to do now?
