It turned out the cops weren’t there because Caleb was in trouble. They were there because he was the one who had blown the whistle.
Right there, in front of hundreds of kids, the real story came out. A few weeks back, Brittany and her little clique had approached Caleb with an offer. They wanted him to ask me to prom as part of this huge prank.
The plan was as simple as it was disgusting.
They were going to film my reaction the second they revealed the whole thing was a lie, and then blast the video online for the entire world to laugh at. But instead of playing along, Caleb decided to protect me.
He saved every single text message.
And on the very night of the prom, he stopped by the police station and gave everything up.

At that moment, the police arrived to question the responsible ones about the prank. When the truth came to light, there wasn’t one face that didn’t freeze out of shock.
