    ... with a B+ and happier than ever. It didn't take long for him to become completely dependent on me. But that spoiled, rich little shit had no problem shoveling money my direction, and I had no problem taking it. Big mistake. I was in my dorm room one night working on Matthew’s psychology midterm. My bitch of a roommate Melanie blundered in – she could barely walk straight and I could smell the booze in her breath. She was like this at least three or four times a week and I was absolutely sick of it. Not to mention she never missed an opportunity to tease me in front of her little sorority friends and make my life difficult. I couldn’t wait for the semester to end so I could request a different room. Melanie shambled over to the desk and looked over my shoulder. “What are you working on?” she yapped at me. “My psychology paper,” I mumbled. Could she just go to sleep and leave me alone? “Didn’t you do your psychology paper already?” she slurred. “Yeah well, I’m re-writing it,” I said, growing exasperated. “Hmmm… are you sure that’s really your paper?” she asked snidely. My heart skipped a beat. “Of course it is!” I insisted. “Now could you let me work in peace?” Melanie grinned and sprawled out on her bed. A few minutes later I could hear her snores.

She doesn’t take any nonsense – I’ve seen her verbally rip apart students who crossed her. But she’s always liked me, and told me I had a promising future with the school. The angry and disappointed look on her face hurt me more than anything else in this messed up situation. Ms. Turring held up a paper – it was my psychology midterm paper. “This is very good,” she said. “Thank you,” I said, trying my best to maintain my composure. Maybe I could still get through this. Ms. Turring held up a second paper. “You know what this is?” I shook my head, even though I knew perfectly well what it was. “This is Matthew’s paper,” Ms. Turring said. I stood very still. “Or at least that’s the name on the paper,” she continued. “But I know it’s not his, because, to put it bluntly, he’s an idiot.” I didn’t say a word. I just stared at the floor. “Did you write this?” she asked me. I was tempted to lie, but I felt compelled to be honest. “Yes,” I whispered, barely loud enough to be heard. “Well, at least you told the truth,” she said. “If you had lied, I would have had you expelled right here. Matthew already confessed, so the game was already up.” A part of me remembered Melanie. That bitch snitched ...
