1x16; It's a small crime and I've got no excuse

Allison was absent from school so Atie found herself being alone for lunch since she didn’t want to deal with her other physic friends. She walked over to Rana’s table and sighed, “Can I sit with you?”
Rana looked up at her sister and rolled her eyes, “I guess.” She laughed moving her bag.
Atie sadly smiled and sat down next to her sister. Rana noticed her long face but decided to drop it for now. She engaged in light chatter with Hanna and Caleb as Atie silently listened when Sansa walked up behind them.
“Wow, nice mark on your neck, Rana!” Sansa remarked with a sweet smile. “I guess you really are a slut?”
Rana turned around and smirked at her, “I’m sorry you’re a jealous, dried up bitch, because your small penis boyfriend doesn’t give you any.” She said smiling and tilting her head.
Hanna laughed, “Bye!” she said waving her hand and dismissing Sansa. Sansa rolled her eyes and stormed off.
“I hate that bitch!” Hanna snarled. “I can’t believe she just called you a slut. She’s the slut. Any girl tht goes after a boy who’s taken is a slut.”
Atie felt her face burn up from embarrassment. “I’m gonna go.” She said quickly getting up and walking off.
“What’s up with her?” Hanna asked curiously.
Rana sighed and eyed Gemma, “Nothing, she’s fine.”
Atie was angrily walking down the empty hall when she felt herself collide into someone. Looking up she noticed Liam. “Of course!” She growled turning around and walking the other way.
“Atie!” Liam said running after her. “Atie is everything okay?”
“No everything is NOT okay!” Atie screamed! “And it’s all your fault!”
“What?” Liam asked in disbelief.
Atie turned around and got in his face angrily, “Even if you do break up with Gemma and get with me I’ll be labeled as the slut who stole you away.” Atie hissed. “Either ways whatever happens, we’re screwed.”
“Aren’t our feelings worth it?” Liam asked. “Aren’t we worth it?”
“Liam you don’t even have the guts to break up with her! How is any of this okay?”
Liam sighed, “I can’t lose you. That’s all I know.”
Atie stared at him hard, “Well, I don’t care.” She said storming off.

Rachel was sitting in her classroom doing work. She looked up and sighed, everyone had been picked up except for Brett.
“Sweetheart, did your mommy say if she was going to be late?” Rachel asked softly.
Brett shook his head, “No, momma said she’d pick me up at the same time as always.” The little boy said softly clearly worried.
“Don’t worry, I’ll try calling her.” Rachel smiled. She picked up her cellphone to make the call when suddenly Robb came rushing towards the door.
“Brett!” he said storming in.
Brett smiled and ran towards Robb, “Uncle Robb I thought everyone forgot about me!” He said happily.
Robb laughed and hugged him, “How could we forget about you? Mom had some trouble at work and couldn’t get out. Grab your things so we can head out.” Robb smiled.
Brett beamed and ran towards his cubby to grab his things. Robb turned towards Rachel who gave him a soft smile. “He was really worried.”
“Yeah.” Robb said shaking his head, “Sorry that you had to wait with him.”
Rachel shrugged her shoulders, “It’s my job and he’s a great a kid.”
Robb nodded his head, “So about last night.”
“There’s no need to talk about it.” Rachel said quickly.
Robb sighed, “Listen to me, I don’t know what exactly my mom said but she does this okay? She drives away anyone that she thinks isn’t good enough for her for her family.”
“And I’m not good enough.” Rachel said shrugging her shoulders. “It’s fine, okay? I get it.”
Robb sighed, “No that’s not what I meant! You are good enough, you’re more than good enough!”
Rachel backed up, “Listen this friendship was good while it lasted but not everything is meant to be forever, right?”
“Uncle Robb let’s go!” Brett screamed by the door.
“Do you really think this was just a friendship?” Robb asked her. He then walked away before she even had a chance to respond.

Rana knew that she might come to regret this. She knew that getting involved with Jasper like this was a stupid idea and couldn't possibly result in anything good. And still.... He was handsome, he was funny, and he was an excellent kisser. And as it so happened, Rana had become excellent at convincing herself she had no feelings whatsoever. So it was natural for her to assume that she would never feel anything for Jasper, either.
He was waiting for her after school with that usual smirk on his face. "I'm glad you came", he smiled.
"I almost didn't when I remembered you'd give me this obnoxious smile of yours", Rana teased.
"Oh, please, you love my smile", Jasper chuckled, gesturing for Rana to follow him into the car, which she did.
"Where are we going?" She asked.

The place turned out to be none other than Jasper's very own apartment.
"Wait", Rana looked around in shock. "You live alone? Lucky."
Jasper chuckled. "Maybe. It does get a little lonely."
"You are free to swap places with me", Rana chuckled. She checked her phone. "Okay, you'll have to drive me home in a few hours, Oliver wants to wake us out."
"Is your special friend, Bash, coming, too?" Jasper hissed.
Rana realized that Jasper was once again jealous. "Bash is not my special friend."
Jasper shrugged. "I bet he wishes he was."
Rana smiled, walking over to him. "And does that bother you?" She knew it did, and secretly she loved it.
"No", Jasper clearly lied, looking at her firmly. "He can wish what he wants. I'm the one with you right now."
Rana nodded. "So you are", she walked over to him and kissed him. Jasper responded immediately, wrapping his arms around her body, kissing her with such passion and almost possessiveness, even.
"So, where's the bedroom?" Rana whispered in his ear, and then let out a delighted laugh as Jasper grabbed her in his arms, taking her into the bedroom.
