His Scarlet Queen Luna
Chapter 12

lunch wasn’t over yet but I still went to my next class anyway

I have had enough of this he didn’t tell me that he loved me. neither did I but I wanted this thing to be labelled.

Where were we dating? was I his girlfriend.? Or was I just some girl who he was using to cheat on his girlfriend who is no other than my best friend.

The first time zone and I kissed was the best moment ever I felt a pang of guilt that I had just kissed my best friend’s boyfriend but at the same time, it felt so right a bigger part of me was convinced that Zane and I were meant to be and it was natural for me to k**s him despite him being basically my brother in law grrrr…

” Hey, scar..?” Jenna said smiling at me entering the class

I shared this one with her.

I wanted to wipe out that smile from her face but recomposed myself.

” Hey..” I said

” Why did you leave so suddenly anyway you have your reasons. Zane and I kissed today..” she said dreamily and I fought the urge to roll my eyes.

Of course, he didn’t k**s you but you kissed him and he probably didn’t even like it.

Plus zane should have kissed me he should be calling me his girlfriend not her I know he saw her first but he has been into me ever since they started dating

me and the guys have been asking him why he isn’t breaking up with her but he didn’t say just says its hard

Maybe he has started falling in love with her I sighed fighting the urge to cry.

I won’t see him again if he is only using me.

‘ Ping ‘ i received a text from Zane

” I will break up with Jenna today come by the clearing we always Meet from..” the text said and I smiled.

” I am so happy for you Jenna..” I said smiling sweetly at her

you have no idea what is coming for you..!!

This past month I have become pretty evil let me just say never in my entire life did I ever imagine that one day I would betray my friend like this by going out with her boyfriend but you can’t blame me it feels so right!

And Jenna and I haven’t been friends since forever. we have only been friends for over two months now.

But still, the guilt is there though this feels right!!

Who am I kidding the guilt is there I have betrayed her I have betrayed my friend the worst way possible.

” Scar are you okay..?!” she asked noticing my change of mood.

I have to tell her I need to tell her so I won’t feel guilty anymore.

” I am just thinking about something..” I said, ” What would you do if your best friend was going out with your boyfriend..?”

She stared at me for some time then shrugged

” I would kill her! I am pretty possessive of my things. I would definitely hunt the chick down kill her then kill my boyfriend and lastly kill myself so we could all meet in hell then I make sure I tell the devil to multiply the hellfire by ten times so they could burn for eternity.!!” she said smiling evilly and I gulped.

I am going to die young I hope it will be after I have told my mom I love her and repent my sins so I won’t go to hell..!

” I am sorry..!” I said giving her the best sad look I can muster probably she might pardon me and not kill me right!!!

” For what scar!!” she asked

” Huh..?” I pretended not to say anything.

” You just said sorry..”

” Shhh..” I said cutting her off. “the teacher is here..”

” What the teacher is not even he…..” just then our teacher came.

Phew, I am saved.

As soon as school was done I quickly walked all the way home straight to my room going to change my clothes. I wore pink shorts with a black tank top and then…

“Where are you going.?” Val showed up.

” I am going to see him..” I said

“You know this is wrong right you are betraying your best friend scarlet this is not right..”

I sighed

“I know Val but what can I do there is something that keeps on pulling me closer to him. I know all of this is wrong and I am being a terrible person but I am too far in. I can’t back out now and Zane sent me a text telling me that he will break up with her today and he wants to tell me something. I promise if he doesn’t break up with her I won’t see him ever again..”

” Scarlet..” Val held my hands and sat me on the bed.

” Do you care about Jenna.?!” He asked.

“Of course I do she is my……” I couldn’t say friend after everything I was doing to her I was a snake in the grass a wolf in sheep clothing.

I got up from the bed and walked around the room.

” so you want to see her hurt..?”

” No..!!” I sat down quickly

“I would never want Jenna to be hurt she is one of the people just two months ago who acknowledged my existence and talked to me. I can’t believe I have done this to her..” I sighed.

” Then let Zane go..”

” I can’t Val..” I said sadly “I can’t let him go it’s like I am obsessed with him I can’t let him go. ” He sighed running his hands through his hair.

” So then you will just keeping on betraying your friend scarlet?? this isn’t you you are not like this what has gotten into you..??!!” he said frustrated

I just sat there like a kid being scolded for doing something wrong.

” I don’t know..” I said in a small whisper.

” One moment I hated him then the next I was obsessed with him I don’t know what is happening to me Val I have no idea..”

” You are hurting your friend scarlet in the worst way possible you are backstabbing her how can you sleep at night knowing that..?” he said and guilt was now hitting me full force he was right I was being a backstabbing ……

” I don’t know what to do Val..” I sat down on The floor and sobbed

“I don’t know what has gotten into me these days I know I am being a terrible person please help I don’t want to do this anymore..” I said crying.

He sighed and sat on the floor with me

” don’t go to him..” he said ” I will talk to Zane and tell him that this isn’t working out okay..” he kissed my forehead.

Val was right I should not go and see Zane today I should just stay home..!!

I nodded my head

” Great..” he said going out of the house

I lay on my bed wearing the black hoodie Zane had given me on our first date.

How can I do this to my friend I sobbed but this felt so right why does it feel right when it’s wrong I sighed closing my eyes maybe I might have a dream that will direct me to the right path.?

” I am gonna swing from the chandelier from the channel…..” my phone rang I g*****d picking it up

” Hello..?”

” Hey, baby I am waiting for you..” Zane said on the other side.

” I can’t come zane..” I told him

” why? what’s wrong? why can’t you come..?”

” I am scared and feeling guilt I can’t betray my friend like this..”

” I know my love but please you have to come I need to tell you something that will prove to you that what we are doing isn’t wrong but what I was doing with Jenna was..”

” Really..??”

” Yes princess please come..” I could hear the desperation in his voice

should I go or not?

If I don’t go I will continue feeling guilt but relieved that I am not betraying my friend anymore but if I go I will replace out what he wants to tell me.

Maybe whatever he wants to say will make me feel less guilty?.

” Okay..” I breathed out “I am coming..”

” Great thank you so much love I promise you won’t regret it and I am sorry in advance for what I will tell you I am sorry that I was in fact cheating on you with Jenna, not the other way round I am sorry..”

” What is that suppose to mean..?” I asked

” Just come I will tell you when you get here..” I sighed.

” Okay see you in ten..” I said hanging up.

I called Val and he quickly picks up

” hello..”

” Zane asked me to go see him.”

” And you are going..?” he asked

” yes, Val he wants to tell me the reason why I shouldn’t be feeling guilty and also to say sorry..”

” For what..?” he asked.

” I don’t know but it must be important I promise if he only wants a make-out session I won’t give in..” I said.

” Okay just be careful okay I am having bad vibes about this please stay safe okay..?”

” Sure don’t worry I will..” I said hanging up I wore my pink sneakers and left the house.

Our meeting place was just a ten-minute walk from my house.
