Maya
Did you and Alex break up??
Maya
He just walked into the party I’m at…
Kylie
Are you sure it’s him??
Maya
But wait — DID you guys break up?
Kylie
NO! I just talked to him an hour ago!
Maya
Ok, don’t freak out then.
Maya
Maybe she’s a friend?
Kylie
Does she look like a friend??
Kylie
If he’s cheating, I’m going to KILL him.
Maya
She looks like a friend…
Maya
They’re all over each other.
Maya
There’s something else…it’s really messed up.
Maya
Promise you won’t freak out?
Maya
I know how you can get.
Maya
He’s wearing a bright green t-shirt.
Maya
And on the front it says…“Single AF.”
My teeth grind together as I read the text.
What’s going on right now?!
Alex and I just made it official last month!
How can he be cheating already?!
I race to my closet and grab the first thing I see.
Then I text Maya on my way out the door.
Maya
You’re not feeling well.
Kylie
I’m not letting him get away with this crap.
Kylie
Which house are you at?
Maya
…The Varsity lacrosse house.
Maya
Just try not to kill him, okay?
Kylie
He’ll be lucky to get off that easy.
I break the speed limit on my way to campus…
Getting angrier with each mile.
Not to mention, my head is swimming.
Today I woke up with a pretty bad head cold.
I didn’t plan on going out tonight.
So I canceled at the last minute.
Clearly, Alex took it as an opportunity.
“Out of sight, out of mind,” is it?
I press my foot to the gas.
Maya is right to be worried.
She knows how I get when I’m upset.
But my parents call it my “Godzilla” mode.
And now, Alex is about to see some teeth.
My car screeches as I pull into a parking spot.
I know I look as angry as I feel…
Because as I stomp up the steps to the lacrosse house…
Several students wisely step out of my way.
The loud chaos of the party greets me.
And it doesn’t take me long to find him.
Arm swung over some girl.
And he’s doing nothing to stop her.
My hands clench into fists.
As if he can feel my wrath…
He looks in my direction and our eyes meet.
I give him my sweetest smile…
But let my rage pierce into him.
It’s as if he’s wondering why I’m upset.
Well, I’m going to enjoy setting him straight.
He’s about to wish he never messed with Kylie McCann.
My stomach drops as I text my brother.
Danny
Bro, your girlfriend is here.
Alex
She told me she was sick.
Alex
She’s not supposed to be out tonight.
Danny
Well something must have changed.
Danny
Because I’m looking right at her.
Danny
And from the way she’s looking at me…
Danny
I think she thinks I’m you!
Alex
This is going to ruin everything!
Danny
What do you mean ruin everything?
Danny
Alex…what did you do?
Alex
Are you still with Layla?
Danny
Yes, she hasn’t left my side all night.
Alex
Are you still in the t-shirt I gave you?
Danny
Yes, but now that you mention it…
Danny
Why did you make me wear this?
Danny
This isn’t a Stoplight Party.
Danny
No one else is in red or green.
Alex
Okay, don’t get upset but…
Danny
Oh great, here we go.
Danny
What did you do this time, Alex?
Alex
I want to break up with Kylie.
Alex
I knew her friends would be at the lacrosse house tonight…
Alex
And they don’t know I have a twin.
Alex
So I was hoping they’d see you…
Alex
Then, she’d break up with me over text, since she’s sick.
Danny
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
Danny
Why didn’t you just break up with her in person?
Alex
You don’t know how she can get.
Danny
You’ve had a lot of stupid ideas, Alex…
Danny
But I think this is your worst one ever.
Danny
And how could you involve me in this and not tell me?!
Alex
But what’s done is done!
Alex
If she comes up to you…
Alex
I need you to take one for the team.
Danny
Is Layla even interested in me?
Danny
Or did you just pay this girl for your masterplan??
Alex
Nevermind about Layla.
Alex
What’s Kylie doing??
Danny
She’s just staring at me from across the room.
Danny
I’m kind of scared.
Alex
I’m surprised she hasn’t made a scene.
Alex
But then again, she never does what I expect.
Alex
…It’s actually kind of hot, now that I think about it.
Danny
You’re out of control.
Danny
I can’t believe you would do this to me.
Alex
Like I said, I was desperate.
Danny
I’m not sure you understand the meaning of that word.
Danny
You need to deal with this problem yourself.
Alex
Probably for the best…
Alex
I bet she’ll realize it’s not me if she gets any closer.
