That’s impossible. Completely and utterly impossible. Because Riley knows the truth. Riley knows for a fact that I didn’t do it. Riley’s who told me it was Bryson who started everything and got me in trouble with you. So what the hell do you mean he told you the truth? Because if he told you the truth you wouldn’t be angry with me…

...Are you seriously trying to shift the blame onto that little kid now? Just admit to what you’ve done! Seriously, grow up and take responsibility, Emmett. Yes, I’m angry with you, I have every right to be angry with you, but I do get that people make mistakes. Mistakes don't define you as a person. The way you fix your mistakes is what defines you as a person. The way you apologize and show remorse for your actions. You've made some poor decisions, it happens, but just own up to it. If you’re really sincere about wanting to be civil with me from now on, then that’s the very least you could do.

I’m not denying anything. I didn’t do shit to you. Bryson has to do with it because he’s who started the dumb rumor, then he pinned it all on me… Wait what did Riley say to you?.. Yea, wouldn’t count on it. That part of the Puckerman clan’s pretty damn cool, we’ve got no quips between us, besides. I’ve never done anything wrong. Soo there’s that, keep hoping though.

You realize that what you just did was the definition of what denial means, right? Are you seriously trying to blame Bryson now for your what you did to me? You’re truly unbelievable... Riley told me the truth, something that you never will because you’re too much of a coward to take responsibility for your actions.

Doesn’t make you coming to hang out with us any less shady, but suit yourself. I never tried to stab you in the back, Avery. If you were a “good friend” to me you would have had a conversation with me over it and found out that Bryson was actually bullshitting you the whole time. But whatever, even while being the lowest in this school you still manage to figure out how to stay balanced on your high horse. Too bad Puckerman’s sister didn’t knock you off it completely, I was really hoping she did us a favor and had.

Fine, whatever. I was attempting to make this easier for us, as well as all of the people we’ll be spending our time with, but okay. Have it your way.

What is shady about it? I apologized and he forgave me, that is all. I owned up to my mistakes, unlike you who’s still denying them. What does Bryson have to do with any of this? I don’t need to talk to you about it and listen to more of your lies, because I know Riley would never lie to me. Hopefully she’ll write about what a terrible person you are next, because it looks like you could use some of that as well. But I guess the Muckraker doesn’t have enough pages for even a summary of that.

Well if you can safe all of your bullshit for someone stupid enough to fall for it, that would be great.

Get better, sure, lucky for you the only place to go from rock bottom is up… You’re right, there isn’t anything similar, because you’re a social outcat for screwing the girlfriend of the guy who basically runs the group you’re now rolling with. While I’ve been getting the bullshit stick from you and my old friends for absolutely no reason at all. So yea, wildly different.

I’d hold your tongue on the sass there Karofsky, you may have a place to fit in, but you’re still the lowest on the food chain in even that small hierarchy. Don’t want to spent time in my presence, you don’t have to… but considering that isn’t a choice you’re going to be making, I think it’s best we try to be civil to each other. This is your home as much as mine now, and unlike you, I know how to show a little empathy.

No, the difference is that I had no idea who this girl was, whether or not she was dating anyone, nor was I friends with Logan at the time. Regardless, I apologized to him.You however tried to stab me in the back on purpose even though I was nothing but a good friend to you. I never meant to hurt anyone, you did. So yes, wildly diffferent indeed.

It’s not sass, it’s the truth and you being condescending to me only proofs how right I am about you. You can pretend like you want to be the better man, however, you’re not. You don’t even know what empathy is, Anderson. And that’s fine, because I don’t have any for you either.

You seem pretty bitter there, Karofsky. Sounds almost like you can’t handle your own fucking shit that you dish out. How surprising. Congratulations on finding yourself sport, you’re damn lucky we’re all nice people and that I have no say in who hangs around all of us, because if it were up to me I would have left you to be on your own.

Bitter? No, that’s more the Anderson way. I don’t get bitter, I get better. Are you seriously trying to compare our situations? Because there’s nothing similar about it at all. What I’ve been dishing out to you is exactly what you deserve and the only downside of my newfound friendships is having to spend my time in your presence. Believe me, that feeling is very much mutual.

Aren’t you Riley’s super religious friend who complains about the bathrooms? Well, not anymore I guess. Why did your friends drop you like a hot potato anyway? You’re not the first person in this school to cheat and you probably won’t be the last. Anyway, congrats on finding yourself or whatever. I stick a lot of gum under the bleachers, so watch out for that.

That’s right, not anymore.. I found better friends now. And why do you even care about that? Obviously it’s because they think they’re better than me, because I messed up, I sinned.. But it’s fine, I don’t need them anyways. It’s their loss. ...And that’s absolutely disgusting, why would you do that? I knew that buying these gloves was a good investment.

Who knew that being ranked the trashiest person in school is actually the best thing that could have happened to me? It definitely beats putting in the effort to please and fit in with the conformists, aka the crowd that drops you like a hot potato just because you screwed up once in your high school career, and completely forgets everything you’ve done for them in the past. For once I’m surrounded by people who don’t constantly judge me and are just waiting for me to make a mistake they can crucify me for for their amusement. If only I had realized sooner what I was missing out on.

So, it’s cool, McKinley. I’ll take my new label in stride and as a matter of fact, I feel like I finalIy found myself and I don’t ever plan on going back to that bullshit way of living again.

Eden: I'm sorry too because there's no stop, drop, and roll in hell, Avery.

Eden: This is also the end of our relationship. I don't want to hear any explanations from you because you already have to answer to God himself.

Eden: Plus I may actually slap you the next time I see you.

Avery: ..I'm aware of that.

Avery: I understand, and you're right.. I don't deserve you. I'm still very sorry, I know it doesn't matter but I am..

Avery: That's fine.. do what you have to do.

Eden: Please tell me that I'm not wasting my time defending you.

Avery: You are.. so you should stop doing that, Eden..

Avery: I'm so sorry... for doing it, for lying to you about it... I don't know what I was thinking, but I'm so sorry..

Why don’t you pass out hand sanitizer or something if it’s making you feel that bad? It’s not like you can put yourself in a bubble and bounce around the school or field. Grayson was a douche before any of this happened and now he’s an even bigger one. Obviously it takes two to tango, but he’s still a giant douche. What would Frankie possibly gain from blackmailing you? We sort of aren’t friends right now. Despite that, he always made a point to not include me in his shenanigans for whatever reason.

PM: There’s hand sanitizer available in the bathrooms, doesn’t mean everyone uses it, sadly. But I’ll deal with it somehow, I always do. I can’t let it affect how I play in any way. I won’t dispute that, but him being a douche has nothing to do with his reputation. Fabray singlehandedly killed it with one article.. I can’t have that happen to me. In exchange for his silence he wanted protection from the other jocks and he wanted to stay at our lunch table, now that I kicked Grayson out. It all makes sense now why Grayson was so insistent on having him at our table in the first place. Fabray probably has things on him as well. Like I said, you’re very lucky. Your boyfriend won’t hear about it from me either, and I'll do what I can to keep Fabray quiet as well,

Well, yeah. Really I was joking and didn’t think you would get so up in arms about some random freshman not properly washing their hands. But to each their own, I guess. Obviously, since you and your girlfriend rule the Celibacy Club. You guys are a cute couple, by the way. I didn’t mean for it happen either considering I’m dating someone else and all. I just want to make sure you aren’t gonna tell anyone. Uh, no? Who’s blackmailing you?

Personal hygiene is very serious, and not something to joke about. Because of people like these freshmen I’ve been feeling nauseous all week, and I need to be on top of my game with the lacrosse game coming up this Friday. It’s like they don’t even think about what effects their terrible habits have on other people. And I fully intend to stay president of the Celibacy Club and date Eden.. I can’t have anyone find out about this, okay? My high school career would be completely over, just look at what happened to Grayson, and I have way more on the line than he does. Nobody will hear about it from me, that I can promise you. ..Fabray, I’m honesly surprised that he hasn’t brought it up to you, since you’re also dating someone. I suppose there just isn’t much for him to gain.. lucky you.

Why? Because I made one comment about reprimanding a group of freshmen for their poor hygiene habits? While I agree that McKinley would benefit from a hygiene patrol, the bathrooms are the last place at school where I would want to hang out more than absolutely neccessary. I already said that was a mistake. I didn’t mean for that to happen. I don’t know why it happened... What more do you want to hear? ...Or are you going to blackmail me too? Is that it?

hayley-hudson

Um, ew. I knew freshman boys were disgusting, but not that disgusting. Who were these guys, by the way? Even though it’s kind of weird that you’re hanging out in the bathrooms and watching people wash their hands, it’s actually nice to know that there are some boys who aren’t dirty. Right, Avery?

...I don’t know? I didn’t care to find out their names. And it’s not weird, I’m not hanging out in bathrooms! And some people’s hands are so dirty that it’s hard to notice them. It’s confusing how they aren’t noticing these things themselves. ...Right? Why are you talking to me?
