A/N: Okay, first things first... Yeah I haven't disappeared, and yeah, I plan to finish my other Work in Progress. I just haven't written in a long time and need some new project. This story won't be incredibly long but I've had a "senior year" story floating around my head since I was new to this fandom, so I finally wrote the damn thing. This is the prologue. What do you need to know? I haven't read much Clique since Bratfest at Tiffany's. Past drama doesn't really play a huge part in this story though. All you need to know is that Alicia and Josh remained strong until my story, and Claire and Cam are still a couple. Massie has been single for a while and Landon never came to town when he did. I have plans for that character that have nothing to do with how he was portrayed in the books. Honestly don't worry about background, it'll be very self-explanatory.
This is the preview, prologue, trailer, whatever. Enjoy. I'm posting this and chapter one tonight.
Disclaimer: Don't own the Clique, I just borrowed some old plotlines and the character names.
Massie Block: Massie has what some may call a 'reputation' – not a bad one, per se, but not so great either. She is the Ice Queen. The Prudish Bitch. The Untouchable Virgin. Despite no longer having that crazy hunger for power that she possessed in middle school, she still remains as that girl. The girl nobody can have. The girl they all want to be. She's closed herself off and plans to have fun for her senior year. Finishing up the last few credits she needs, taking the easier of the AP classes, and being with her friends are her only priorities. So of course there's a new student in the mix, messing things up. Why does Danny Robbins seem so determined to not only take her on a date, but bring down her walls? And why is she so sure about saying no?
Claire Lyons: Still the devoted, sweet girlfriend of Cam Fischer, they are The Golden Couple. But as the summer draws to an end, Claire can't help but feel that things are looking a little gray. She also thinks that Cam might be feeling it too. They're headed to completely different parts of the country at the end of this school year, and she's having doubts about continuing their relationship. But how do you end the only thing you've ever been sure of? How do you start over after four years with one person? And why in the hell can't she stop having steamy thoughts about dorky Chris Plovert in AP chemistry?
Dylan Marvil: Dylan's got a new nutritionist, courtesy of her mother. After the loud talk show host did an episode about teens and eating disorders, she decided her daughter needed to stop the calorie counting. So now she's being forced to do the one thing she has always been taught not to do – eat like nobody's watching. This does not bode well for her, as she has always had a problem when she feels like people are looking at her. It's why Kemp Hurley was assigned to help her out in the last class she has to take before high school ends – speech. With the way things are going, Dylan will have to face two of her biggest fears – gaining weight and public speaking. Good thing Kemp has a way with words.
Kristen Gregory: Kristen has spent high school working her ass off. Still expected to have the perfect grades, her parents are being more demanding than ever. Education is all they care about – they've been picking colleges for her since she started high school. They are hoping she'll land an academic scholarship. They have no idea that she's aiming for a soccer one. They absolutely lost it when they discovered that the "summer prep course" she took was actually soccer lessons with her favorite former Briarwood boys. Now she has to keep the secret of the private lessons she's been getting from Derrick Harrington.
Alicia Rivera: Alicia is not ready for the school year to begin. When you catch your longtime boyfriend making out with your best friend at the end of summer party, the future doesn't appear too bright. Now she has to face her senior year walking around a school that not only reminds her of everything that's changed, but Josh and Olivia are flaunting their new relationship to anyone that can see. She has to ignore this while also facing the fact that her controlling father has mapped out her college plans – he is, after all, not paying for her education unless she majors in business and finance. Her one and only dream of journalism is slipping away before her very eyes. Unless she can find another financial solution, she'll be the next CEO of her father's company. With everything slipping out of her control, the last thing she needs is a late night voicemail from her crying ex. Of course, that's exactly what she'll get.
Intriguing? Boring? If chapter one isn't posted yet, it will be soon.
