chapter eleven

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"You've got a break." Kenzie spoke to the worker as she hung up a coat.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"What?" The worker puzzled. "I thought I had full hours until eleven?"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Kenzie nodded. "Well, Kalani was the last on the guest list, and she just arrived." She looked to her side to see Annie.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"So we thought you should have a small break until it's time for everyone to leave." Annie lied. Their story was solid, and lying was like their second language.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"How long?" The worker asked. Kenzie tilted her head at Annie.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Fifteen minutes." Annie told. "That should be enough time." She whispered.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀The worker shrugged. "Okay." She walked away, leaving the pair alone.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀They smiled. "Okay, I got the right side you've got the left." Kenzie ordered, making hand gestures as she spoke. "We need to find my phone as soon as we can."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀~~~⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Not in this one." Annie sighed as she re hung up Paige Hylands coat. The two had rummaged through all the coats and bags for the past ten minutes, but were still yet to find Kenzie's phone.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"We only have five minutes left." Kenzie panicked as she searched through another bag.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Kenzie calm down, we'll find it-" Annie comforted.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Annie just stop!" A heated Kenzie shot. Her face was burning read. She sighed as she moved onto one of the last bags, gasping as she laid her grip on it, reading the name.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Kendall Vertes". She whispered to herself and unzipped the Chanel handbag. Her french tipped fingernails pried through all of Kendall's belongings, hoping to get her grip onto her missing phone. Suddenly her hands fell on something cold and rectangular, she smirked, it had to be a phone. Even if it wasn't hers she was sure she could find some dirt about Kendall on it. She pulled out the object. It was a rose gold, iPhone 7, just like Kenzie's.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀She chuckled to herself, "got ya."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Just to make sure Kenzie pressed the home button, only to reveal a picture of herself and Brandon from prom, arms around each other. Her glance softened and became sorrowed. She hadn't had the time to change it before it had gotten snatched from right under her nose. Blinking away her tears she called out to Annie.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"I found it." She yelled. Annie came rushing to her side from across the room.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Who had it?" She questioned.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Kendall." Kenzie replied with gritted teeth. "We need to find her."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀The pair walked out of the bags room, well Annie walked, Kenzie stormed out, into her living room where the party was at it's core.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Where is she?" Kenzie hissed. She scanned the room for the tall brunette, but her eyes couldn't find her. All of a sudden a chime of a glass broke her search. She looked around to find the source of the noise, along with everyone else.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Over here." A voice, obviously belonging to a female chuckled. Kenzie's gaze landed upon Kendall as she continued to talk.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"I'm sure you all know the hostess of this party, Kenzie Ziegler." Kendall began, her icy glare locking with Kenzie's flaming one. She wore a very smug smile on her face as she proceeded. "And I'm sure you all heard about her shocking breakup with Brandon Rowland." Kenzie took a deep breath as Kendall continued. "What if I told you all that the reason behind their breakup was not an argument but something much more." Her smirk grew bigger by the second. The room broke out into whispers, everyone confused as to what Kendall was talking about.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"He cheated on her, with me."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Gasps filled the air, almost replacing the oxygen. Kenzie narrowed her eyes towards Kendall, who raised a glass up at her. Kenzie shook her head, her eyebrows furrowed.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Everyone" She yelled. Nobody paid attention. "Everyone!" She shouted, louder. The room slowly went silent, people's focus now on Kenzie herself. Kenzie looked around the room, before laughing.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Do you really believe this me wannabe?" She amused. Everyone looked around. "This is obviously a made up story she's trying to use to take me down." Kendalls expression changed.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"No I'm not!" She protested.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Kenzie tilted her head, shaking it. "Everyone knows she hates me, she would do anything to try take me down, even make up complete nonsense."  She continued, people were starting to believe her.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"No, Brandon did sleep with me!" Kendall yelled, her head boiling. Kenzie walked up to her, placing her hand on her arm. "Oh honey, you're only making a fool of yourself."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Everyone laughed. Kendall had gone beat red.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"You can even ask Brandon!" She called.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Everyone looked around to find the brunette boy. He placed his hands in his pockets. "Nothing happened between us." Brandon told. "Everything Kendall is saying is a lie."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Tears pricked at the tips of Kendall's eyes, she looked around the room, speechless. She tried to say something, to fight back, but the words just wouldn't come out. Kenzie smirked, whispering into her ear.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"I told you I would ruin you."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀✨⭐️✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ a/n yas badass kenzie ! also looks like kendall had kenzie's phone and was planning to expose her at the party but it backfired lmao. also no jenzie in this chapter :( oh and I might not be able to post for a week because I will have no wifi ]
