Isabella: Storms into the cafeteria, glaring What the heck, Sam?! You're... you're dating Chloe now?! Explain yourself!
no I'm not dating chloe. who told you that?
Looks at you, clearly frustrated Oh, don't play coy with me! I saw it with my own eyes - you two were sitting together at lunch. Don't think I'm stupid!
sam and chloe were kissing at their table
Sees them kissing, anger flaring
What the actual f**k?! You're seriously dating my best friend? After everything we had together? That's low, even for you, Reynolds.
no I’m not. why do you think that?
Scoffs Oh, really? You expect me to believe that? I saw you guys together at lunch just now! And don't try to deny it, because I have witnesses!
I don't have time for this. I grab my tray of food and sit down at a table.
Furiously follows you and slams her hand on the table
You don't have time for this? Are you serious right now?! You're sitting here, casually eating, after betraying me like this?
what? no I'm not? confused look on my face as I'm telling the truth
Stares at you with disbelief Don't play dumb with me! I saw you together at lunch yesterday! And don't even try to deny it! Chloe told me all about it!
I look at you and pull away from Chloe no I’m not dating her, we were just practicing for the dance routine
Isabella's expression softens slightly, though her anger remains Practicing for the dance routine? Seriously? That's what you're going with? And why did you even agree to practice with her? You know I'm the lead cheerleader!
I hold out my arms for a hug. Hey, what's wrong?
Pushes you away, crossing her arms Don't "what's wrong" me! You know how I feel about Chloe! We're supposed to be together! Why would you do this?
I'm not dating anyone right now. plus it's none of your business who I date. we broke up remember?
Scoffs Oh, so now you're just gonna play it cool, huh? We broke up months ago, but that doesn't mean you can just go around dating my friends behind my back!
Yeah we started hanging out more and it just naturally turned into this I shrug nonchalantly
Fists clenched, eyes burning Hanging out more, my ass! You know how I feel about her! How could you do this to me? After everything we've been through together!
I look up at you shocked and confused what? no! we aren't dating! I was just helping her out because her boyfriend broke up with her!
Isabella narrows her eyes, clearly not convinced Bullshit! I saw you two together myself! Holding hands and whispering like a couple!
we broke up weeks ago. she was cheating on me. so I started dating you
Looks at you incredulously You're lying. There's no way Chloe would cheat on you. She's obsessed with you! And you're telling me you started dating me because she cheated? Give me a break!
Isabella, we broke up months ago. I don’t know why you’re upset. we were never serious
Her expression hardens, her hands on her hips Oh, don't play dumb, Reynolds! We had plans, we were going to be together... until you suddenly decided to drop me for her. Why?!
looks up from my tray, surprised Wait, what? No, I'm not dating Chloe. Who told you that?
She glares at you, crossing her arms Don't play dumb, Reynolds. I saw you two talking and laughing together during lunch. And I heard people whispering about it. You know I have my sources!
I am not dating chloe. Chloe walks up behind me, hand in mine.
Looks at Chloe's hand on yours, then back at you, anger rising Yes, you are! I saw you together, holding hands! Don't lie to me!
yeah I am looks at you why does it matter? we broke up
Scowls, clenching fists
Why does it matter? Are you serious? We were together for months, and you just toss me aside like yesterday's trash! And now you're already with my best friend?!
yeah I am, what's it to you?
Isabella's anger intensifies What do you mean "what's it to me"? We've been dating for months, and you suddenly decide to start seeing my best friend behind my back? Do you have any idea how that makes me feel?
I don’t know what you’re talking about
Scoffs Don't play dumb, Reynolds. Everyone saw you together at the mall yesterday. And don't think I didn't notice how you were laughing and having fun with her like she's the only person in the world.
Sam looks up at his ex girlfriend
Isabella crosses her arms, her voice filled with anger Don't give me that look, Sam. I saw you two together. You're my ex, not hers! How could you do this to me?
oh no sweetie, I'm not gay for Chloe, that's just my sister
Stares at you, taken aback for a moment Wait, what? Your sister? You mean, like, family?
