A/N I really did intend to put more of this stuff up sooner, I just didn't. I am pretty sure my beta checked this over... but well this chapter has been sitting on my PC for a while, but the next chapter of both this and the other story I am working on I just not sure where I want to take it in the immediate, long term goals sure, its the short term that gets in my way. Anyways, don't own Faking It so without further ado...

Reagan's PoV

It was bad, it was really bad. Faking being a lesbian, but Amy seemed really into me, and scared shitless I was going to leave, and she didn't need that. Opening up was hard on any of us, and her more so then many. Then I found out why the way she spoke both heart break and longing. And I knew, and my ability to handle it just vanished.

"You still love her. I can't do this Amy life is too short to be chasing someone in love with someone else."

"Reagan wait" Lauren called after me. I didn't listen. "Stop her Amy." She yelled at her sister.

I was struggling with my keys my eyes burning with the starts of tears. It shouldn't matter, it should have been fun, and she was 16 for god's sake. It shouldn't bother me, but it did.

"Reagan, wait!"

"I can't do it Amy I have been hurt too often to keep in a relationship I know is going to get me hurt again."

"But isn't life to full of regrets not to try, it doesn't matter, how I felt about her, she made it clear it wasn't going to happen. I fucked her boyfriend because I was angry and drunk and when she finds out she is going to leave me. 10 years of friendship ruined by one fucking night. I don't want to lose my chance at someone great, who actually likes me, because of that night also. Yeah I love her, and maybe I always will. And maybe the two of us won't last. But I am willing to try, I want to know. We are too young to be worrying about how short life can be, because while it is short, it is also so painfully long."

Karma's PoV

The girl I could only assume was Reagan was practically running out of Amy's house. Maybe it really was a good thing I decided to come over. We could have a girl's night. We both been really busy, Amy came out and yelled for her to wait. "I fucked her boyfriend"

I felt my stomach twist.

I waited until Amy was finished her speech.

"You did what." I asked her, she looked at me with her runny makeup, and the friend side of me wanted to fix her up.

"Shut up Karam we can deal with our shit in a moment." She turned back to the other girl. "I am a fuck up; I ruined every decent thing to come my way since my best friend convinced me faking it would be a good idea. Even as much as I can't promise you I am over my feelings for her I can promise you I practically bombed that ship and I don't think it will ever happen."

Reagan laughed a bittersweet laugh. She looked at me, for a moment.

"Amy, just if we are still together when she finally realizes how fucking awesome you are, just tell me. I'm a big girl I'll do my best to deal with it."

"Well Karma is the type of idiot to suggest a three some, so you know, might not need to worry about that." Amy joked and it hurt.

"It's a little too tense to be making jokes like that shrimp girl but I'll keep it in mind. I'll be inside, Lauren will want to know what happened, and I adore the hobbit. And we still need to talk." Lauren lets her get away with that? It was just the two of us now.

"Where do I begun."

"How about the part that you fucked my boyfriend" I suggested.

"Oh so I fucked Liam Booker, and bullied him till he swore not to tell you."

"Wait you bullied him."

"Yeah, he really likes you."

"But he slept with you."

"It was the wedding night you know when he caught on that you were in your pathological lying stage trying to get everyone to like you. He was hurt, I was hurt it seemed like a really good idea at the time, make you feel like we did. Then I realized we are really shitty people and felt bad."

"Was that supposed to make it feel better? You betrayed me Amy."

"Et tu, Karma. Or was it not you who told the school I was a sex addict when I was a virgin, and I suppose you weren't the crush who walked away after turning me down telling me I wasn't a lesbian and that they were so in love with guy I would be fucking in two hours later. If that's the case they yeah I am a fucking terrible slutty whore." It was like a slap in the face.

"I apologized."

"Oh is an apology enough if that's the case I am sorry I slept with your boyfriend. Look I even got you back with him that absolves me of my guilt for fucking up right." I wished she had slapped me. It was so sudden after that all the anger disappeared from her face and she was holding on to me like her life depended on it. I held her just as tightly

"I fucked up so badly. I couldn't lose you. I didn't have anyone but you my entire life. Not even my mom has really been there for me. How could I not let it be romantic when you seamed to give me that option Karma. And then all at once you pulled it all away and he was there and I hated him and I hated what he had with you. And then it was the next morning and I knew how terrible it really was. And knowing how heartbroken you would be, I made him swear not to tell you."

"This sucks."

"Yeah no shit. Will we be okay?"

"I don't know Amy, I don't know. You need to go show Reagan you're not making out with me. And I need to figure out what I am going to do about Liam. Amy it was like, it was just a onetime mistake right."

"I still don't see what so great about him. But he did truly want to tell you still does, but I fucked that up also."

"I do want to point out you seem to have leaning towards ladies." I said wiping my eyes and trying to clean her makeup a bit. "I need time, I should probably not forgive you at all, but your all I really have as well and losing that well; I can understand why you tried to hide this from me."

Amy's PoV

"Rea, I am about to fall apart. The next few days, they are going to suck, for me and I don't want to put you through that. It was selfish to ask you to stay. Karma was, and maybe still is my other half. And our equilibrium is more thrown off than ever before, I am going to be a raging bitch and you don't need that."

"Amy you just got her to stay, what the fuck are you doing?"

"Trying to be a decent human being for once" I replied with a shrug. It wasn't easy but I was so numb right now I could pretend to be okay, as I stared at the floor.

"Don't do this to me shrimps," she said softly lifting my chin up.

"I don't want to I need to at least offer you an out. I'm just a messed up teenager, you're going to get hurt and I don't want that. I have to offer you an out when I know I am likely ruin this just like everything else." She hugged me. And I just cried.

Liam's PoV

Amy: She knows. Well that figures, she probably painted me as the bad guy which I suppose I deserve. Well I suppose it was a good thing I was trying for the fellowship in the morning.

Muse: I wish you would have told me sooner. This is not how I wanted to find out

Muse: You still at the Art Studio we should talk. I sighed and replied

You: Yeah. So this was likely it.

"So Amy told me that you wanted to tell me, and that she bullied you into not telling me." Karma asked as she showed up. She looked broken down.

"She kind of did. Not physically but she showed up at my mother's engagement party. Some of what she said is why I told everyone that my mom was my mom, not my sister."

"Was there anyone else while we were broken up?"

"No one" I promised. It was the truth this girl consumed my thoughts.

"Well get your fellowship and we will try the distance thing. I need to not just be distracted by how hot you are and you need to figure out how to actually vocalize your feelings." Seriously, this went a thousand times better than I would have thought. "And I know Amy can be mean but I can't believe you let her bully you. She could have made you out to be a monster. And I would have believed her after all this."

"That might be why I let her convince me not to tell you. I felt like such an ass and she could have painted in any way she wanted to. And I couldn't really blame her if she did."

"I want to hate you both you know. I want to feel wronged. But I messed up badly also didn't I. And you both forgave me despite it. You don't have feelings for her though right."

"A strange comradery, nothing more" I assured her.
