Lullabies

"W-what?" Megan randomly asks. It was like she was acting like she was clueless so she could avoid talking about it. My poor baby. She also was still getting used to Zack slowly coming out of his shell around them. It was nice to see him getting better with them.

"You're not fine." Zack responds with a look of concern. "What's going on?" I was so happy to see the guys trying to help her out. They were definitely good for her. I could tell she didn't want to say anything.

"Why do you think that?" She asks him. I knew she was pretending to be clueless. It was her way of avoiding conversations she didn't want to have.

"Because, you look like you've been crying. What's the matter? You know you can tell us right?" Zack explains to her. I loved that he was trying to make her feel better. She then sighs and looks at me.

"You want to tell them?" She asks me. I was really hoping they weren't assuming that something really bad happened. I mean this was bad, but it could've been worse. I looked at her trying to show I didn't want to say it either. "Please?" She looks at me trying to show that it still really upset her. I sighed.

"Someone in the halls wished death on the baby." I say to them. I saw Megan lay her head down on the desk. She was still looking at us, but I could tell she was trying not to cry. I wished I knew what to do to make her happy.

"WHAT?! Who?! Why?! What exactly did they say?!" Kayla asks starting to freak out. "I'll punch their face in!" Megan then kind of smiled, but I could tell she was trying to hide it. She was almost tearing up again so I started to rub her back and told her that it was ok, and that everything was going to be fine. It would've made more sense if I knew the girl, but I didn't and neither did Megan. It just was weird that a random girl would go out of the way to make her miserable.

"I don't know. It was some random chick who basically called Megan an ugly slut that stole her man and wished the baby was a still born so that I could date her because I was her man and that Megan deserves to wallow in despair." I explain shortening up everything that happened. I saw a tear form in Megan's eye, but she held it back. I knew that she was trying to hide how it made her feel. "Neither of us even knows her!"

"Oh my God. I'm so sorry Megan." Rian says. "If it'll make you feel better I was going to see if you guys wanted to all hang out, my place, the park, Alex's place, anywhere you want." Again, I can't be happier to see that they are helping her out. It's nice knowing they care about her. Maybe this will help her feel better.

"Sure..." She answers very quietly. When the class ended we all went out to the parking lot and got in Alex's car to head to his house. When we got to my house we walked in and they all went up to my room and Megan stopped.

"Guys, just go one. I'll be there in a sec." She tells us. I was wondering what she was going to do, but I figured she would tell me later.

"Alright." I say as we all walk towards my room. I pulled her in close and kissed her on the forehead. I then went in my room with the rest of them and waited patiently for Megan.
