Avengers

Incredibly, Lauren and I were friends again by the end of the school year. I got Sean to ask her out, and they dated for a while. One restless summer, thinking they broke up, I walked to her place twice and fooled around with her in the basement while her mom was gone. I knew not that she was back with Sean at the time, finding out at the same time I heard she was cheating on him with Panagiotis, a Greek boy I played cards with at lunch. Sean never found out about my involvement, and confided that he was glad that Lauren got fat before graduation. I thought it was mean, and mourned the death of her attractive abdomen, but nodded as I was mad that Emily and Iscah knew the whole time, helping her hide everything and defending her after.
