My version of Bratfest at Tiffany's.
Massie Block: Kicked Alicia out faster than she could say Ehmagawd! She spread lies about her, and is now the uncontested alpha of BOCD. But, everything is turning out wrong. The PC is going back to Lake Placid. She's currently dating Derrick Harrington, but she can totally tell Derrick has his puppy dog eyes on Alicia ever since Dylan stole him from her. Massie's fighting hard, but Alicia won't seem to fall.
Alicia Rivera: After Massie kicked her out for basically no reason, she takes to hanging with the guys, and refusing to give Massie and her friends the satisfaction. It's on to Lake Placid, and she doesn't care about Josh, who dumped her for her ex-best friend, Dylan. Besides, she and Derrick have been hanging out a lot lately, and Alicia is actually starting to maybe like him…
Dylan Marvil: Snatched Josh from Alicia, and gained 2 pounds. She's a size 4, and is beta to Massie. Something about her relationship doesn't seem right, and she knows what it is. Josh doesn't really love her. He still loves Alicia, so Dylan is heartbroken all over again. Alicia is taking everyone's attention, and Dylan may be the one that finally breaks her down.
Kristen Gregory: Is caught in between hanging with Alicia and sticking by Massie, but knows she needs to make her decision soon, because Massie's acting more like a bitch every single day. Kristen is back and is dating Griffin Hastings, her "sweet" boyfriend. What she doesn't know is Griffin's a major pervert, and he's also dangerous. When she finally puts the pieces together, it'll be too late.
Claire Lyons: Is fighting with Cam all the time and can't really take it anymore. No one understands her. Massie's to busy battling Alicia, and no one else has ever really tried to help her do anything. They don't even like her! She sees Lake Placid as a chance to get her love life back on track, but everything is ruined when she sees her alpha making out with her boyfriend!
Chapter 1-New Beginnings
September 25, Monday
Assembly
9:06 A.M.
"Ugh, assembly? Why not just watch grass die?" Massie Block complained, flipping her chestnut brown curls, and sighing. It was Dylan, Massie, Kristen, and then Claire on the end, and everyone was either laughing or talking, like assembly was actually something to look forward to every single freaking Monday. Dylan giggled, and side peeked over at Josh. She and Josh were going out ever since he dumped Alicia. He was cute, fun loving, and Dylan was so in love with him. Massie was dating Derrick, but everyone knew they were breaking apart.
Derrick was always hanging out with the guys and Alicia, and Massie was secretly sick of it. Kristen was drifting, and Massie was worried she'd lose her to Alicia and the guys soon. Massie side peeked at her best friends and knew she had to do something to make sure they wouldn't leave her for Alicia or anybody else.
"Hey, Massie, there's Ew-licia," Dylan whispered in her ear. Massie stiffened as Alicia, Cam, Derrick, and Chris Plovert passed by. Alicia looked so happy without her, and that sort of hurt. Why didn't Alicia want to be back in the Pretty Committee? Why was she so happy? Massie noticed that Derrick was giving Alicia a lot of attention, and she felt the blood rush to her face. Alicia wouldn't dare to steal Derrick, would she? Alicia looked her way, but her gaze was curious, as if she could read minds. Massie returned with a furious glare.
"When will you realize no one's fighting with you, Massie?" Alicia demanded. "You're only fighting yourself." Massie avoided her friends' eyes as she stood up and stared straight into Alicia's brown eyes.
"You picked this fight, Alicia Rivers. Not me."
Alicia rolled her eyes, and placed her hands on her hips.
"Until I stab your back, just stay away from me, ok, Block? Your problems don't concern me anymore, because you backstabbed me. Remember?" Massie refused to give Alicia the satisfaction.
"I never stabbed your back, Ew-licia. You betrayed us by spreading our secrets." Alicia looked amused, as she slowly shook her head.
"It's funny how no one believes you except Kristen, Dylan, and Claire, huh." Alicia stalked away with the guys at her heels. Massie's mouth hung open in shock. Alicia had defeated her. In that battle.
"She is so dead to me," Massie growled, sitting back down. "Why is she hanging out with our boyfriends? Except for Griffin and Josh." Kristen grinned at her good fortune, and then immediately continued texting Griffin, her weird, skull obsessed boyfriend. Claire looked up, and glanced over worriedly at Cam. She and Cam had been having plenty of problems lately.
"It doesn't matter to me anymore," Claire mumbled sadly. "Cam and I are always fighting, and I'm sick of it. Just the other day, I caught him IMing Nikki on his cell phone, and then he starting screaming. I wonder if I should just dump him for good." Massie panicked, and leaned over Dylan to glare at her best friend.
"And let Alicia steal him?" She demanded harshly. "You and Cam are the most inexperienced couple ever! Haven't you guys ever heard of working things out? It's what couples do these days!"
Kristen and Dylan laughed, but to Massie, the situation was far from funny. Claire flushed, and stared at her alpha in anger.
"Do I look like the kind of person to easily work out my many problems?" She asked. Massie smiled apologetically at her, and patted her shoulder.
"Sorry, I'm just worried that Alicia might steal our boyfriends. Aren't you?"
"Obviously not as much as you are," Claire retorted, still not ever Massie's meanx10 comment. Massie sighed, knowing Claire would get over it soon. Kristen looked over at her, clearly over the whole awkward moment.
"What time does the assembly actually start? This is so boring. Maybe we should just skip out." Massie almost laughed. Kristen Gregory, the smart soccer playing goody tushes wanted to skip out of assembly. What a shocker.
"Uh, it starts at 9:15. Which is now."
As if on cue, Principal Burns stepped up on the platform, wearing a polyester suit in gray, which matched her frizzy hair and her boring shoes. Massie rolled her eyes, and nudged Dylan who giggled in response. P. Burns cleared her throat, and grinned out at the mass of students.
"Good morning BOCD! I have some great news for all of you. In 2 weeks, the entire eighth grade will be going back to a renovated Lake Placid!" There was a long pause, and then cheers all over the room. Massie was in shock. Back to the woods? Didn't P. Burns remember what happened last time they went to Lake Placid? It ended in disaster!
"Ehmagawd, I can probably go this time!" Kristen squealed, clapping her hands together. Claire shrugged and stared straight ahead. For once, Massie was grateful she and Claire were the only ones not caught up in the crowd. Dylan and Kristen jumped up and down, but Massie secretly watched Alicia and Derrick.
Alicia hugged everyone, but she noticed her hug with Derrick lasted 3 seconds longer than her hug with anyone else. Massie knew maybe she was acting paranoid, but she would not lose Derrick again. Not after all she had been through with him.
