find a pair of jeans pull them on and step into a pair of flats. I brush my hair, put on some makeup, and leave my room. I dig through the cupboards and find a single serving box of cereal. I pour it into a bowl and pour some milk on top. I sit down at the table and munch. The flowers are still in the cup sitting perfectly in the middle of the table. They’re so pretty and I feel all warm and mushy when I think about how Ryan presented them to me. I don’t think I’ll ever forget this bouquet of flowers as long as I live. He put a lot of thought and meaning into it. I finish eating, put the bowl and spoon in the sink and leave for my class.
    While I’m walking I notice that everyone is staring at me, pointing at me and whispering. I think I hear my name, turn around, only to receive more stares. I don’t understand what’s going on. When I get into class, there are whistles, cheers, and I hear someone say, “You can steal me anytime.” Then it hits me; the flyer. I guess everyone saw it. Heat rises to my cheeks in embarrassment, and I stare at the floor and take a seat. It can feel everyone’s x-ray eyes on me. I’ve never felt so exposed until now. I focus my eyes on my desk, and notice a folded piece of paper. I open it up, it reads, “Want to fuck?” I’m mortified. I want to walk out and pretend none of this happened. I stare at the words on the note, the paper shakes in my hands. Ryan sits down causing me to jump. He snatches the note out of my trembling hands. “Who wrote this?” He asks me.
    “I don’t know,” I answer, my voice barely above a whisper.
    Ryan looks around the room, “Why is everyone staring at you?”
    “Well, there was this flyer…” I start and the professor walks into the room.
    Kelly sits down next to me and the three of us dig out our notebooks so we can take notes.  The lecture from the professor seems to drag on, I take as many notes as I can, but I’m just not in the mood to endure class today. I want to go back to my room and curl up in bed. I want to forget that the flyer incident happened, and I don’t want to tell Ryan about it.
    At the end of class, I put everything back into my bag. When I look up there’s a guy standing in front of me. “Did you get my note?” He asks with a creepy perverted grin that I want to slap off his face.
    “Why don’t you take your note and shove it up your ass.” Ryan says, coming to my defense.
    “It’s not my fault, she’s a man stealing whore. Tell me who she stole you from?” he says with a smug smirk.
    “She didn’t steal me from anyone and if you talk about her like that again, I’m going to shove your head up your own asshole.” Ryan threatens.
    “Whatever,” the guy says and walks away.
    “What is going on?” Kelly asks her eyes wide as she looks at me, then Ryan.
    “Remember that night that I had with Gabriel and Emily?” I say swallowing hard.
    “Yeah,” they say in unison.
    “Emily took a picture of me naked while I was asleep. Then she made flyers and spread them all over school.”
    “When was this?” Kelly asks.
    “The day I went to see you, the same day I went out with Ryan.”
    “Why didn’t you tell me?” Ryan asks.
    “I don’t know. Gabriel was with me when we found the flyers and he said he would take care of it. Honestly I didn’t want to talk about it, or even think about it.”
    “You trusted him to take care of it?” Ryan asks, his voice rising in anger and surprise.
    “Well yeah.” I answer and shrug, what else was I supposed to do?
    “Was he in on it?” Kelly asks.
    “No. I asked him. He wouldn’t do that to me.”
    “Well of course he would tell you that he didn’t have anything to do with it. This is unfucking believable, you know that?” Ryan says shaking his head.
    “Yeah, I know, it happened to me, remember?” I glare at him.
    “We’re going to the campus police right now.” Ryan says grabbing my hand and pulling me along with him as he walks out the door. Kelly
