Just Between Friends
Summary: Kathryn and Annette become friends but what happends when a new guy comes to school?
Chapter 1: The New Guy
Summary: Annette devolops a crush on the new student.
I have learned that one of the best mottos is when given lemons make lemonade. Take the case in point when my steady boyfriend of two years informed me that he was dumping me.
"You're breaking up with me?" I asked in disbelief. I was actually being dumped! Me, Kathryn Merteuil was actually being dumped by the likes of Court Reynolds? If my ego wasn't bruised I could actually laugh at this.
"I'm sorry Kathryn. It's just that I think it's for the best." Court said lamely as he averted my eyes.
I saw the guilty look in his face and knew there was more to it. "Who is she?" I asked more calmly then I felt. I only started dating the stupid loser because I needed a date to the Winter Formal, and after the dance I saw the benefit of bein seen with one of the most popular guys was. I really didn't care for him a bit. He was lousy in bed and truth be told was very dumb.
"I don't know what your talking about." Court said. Like I said before he was dumb and couldn't lie to save his life.
It ended with me hitting him and calling him some very unlady like names. I could not believe that I was being dumped and I went down on him! I was a master of that and very rarely shared my skills with just anyone. My ego was more hurt then anything and I wasn't gonna let him get away with it!
Monday in school I found out who the other girl was, Annette Hardgrove and the new headmaster's daughter. You know the fairy tale Snow White? Well Annette thought she was living it and pranced around Manchester Prep like she was the fairy princess. It made my stomach just turn watching the goody- goody. But I am a resourceful girl and I figured the best action was to befriend her. It didn't take much on my part actually, All I had to do was introduce myself and before long we were bosum buddies. Sure she was a little hesitant at first, hearing stories from Court about how evil I was, but she easily fell for my Mary Sunshine act. Of course Court wasn't happy and instantly demanded that she stopped hanging around with me. Well suprisingly Annette grew a backbone and refused Court's demands and pretty soon that happy realationship was down the tubes. I originally planned on cutting ties with Annette after that, she served her pourpose, but I guess since she gave up Court for me she figured that we were the best of friends. I had planned in putting her in her place when it came to me that having the headmaster's daughter as a good friend would serve me sooner or later. So I continued my masquerade as her friend and let me tell you sometimes it seemed like more work that it was worth. The dimwit clung to me and depended on me from advice to what to wear the next day or some crap about her new crush. So that's how I found myself wasting a perfectly good Friday night eating fattening pizza and watching some dumb lame movie. Annette wanted to have a sleepover and I reluctantly agreed.
"Kathryn I just met the cutest guy." Annette squealed in excitement.
"Really?" I asked like I cared.
"I met him in father's office this morning. He's a new student."
Since Annette's father was the headmaster, she learned all the news first. It was one of the few good points about being her friend. "What's his name?" I asked.
"Sebastian Valmont and he is so cute-" Annette rattled on.
I stopped listening when I heard the name. Valmont was only the name on practically every building in downtown Manhattan. I knew Edward Valmont had a son, but I didn't know he was my age. My family was rich, but paled compared to Edward Valmont's mass fortune. Hmm little Annette finally came with something useful.

Monday morning I took great pains in looking my best. It wasn't hard really I was blessed with good looks. Now before you go thinking I was some conceited bitch, you must understand I was simply stating a fact. Ask anyone in Manchester Prep and the guys will tell you that they would kill to fuck me and the girls will tell you how the would kill to be me. I wanted to look my best when I met Edward Valmont's son. If he was impressed by Annette then he would be blown away by me. As soon as I walked intot the school I saw him. Even though I didn't know what he looked like I just knew it was him. He was leaning against the lockers with a confident smirk on his face. He was gorgeous! Blond curly hair and the way he carried himself. He had a confident air about him that no other boy in school compared to. I stood several feet away and I just stood there waiting for him to notice me. I wasn't disapointed because when he finally looked up at me his smirk turned to a smile of apreciation. He gave me a sexy smile and I felt warm sensation rush past me.He made his way towards me with that sexy swagger of his as I smiled. It was that easy!
As he made his way towards me, his eyes locked with me, something happend. I can't explain it one minute we were having this connection when all of a sudden his eyes looked past me and his expression completely changed. He still made his way towards me only he wan't looking at me. I gave a curious look behind me and to my utter shock, stood Annette!
"Annette," Sebastian said and walked past me.
"Hi." Annette said shyly and looked down.
Was I fucking dreaming? Here this guy was going past me to rush to Annette? What the fuck was the world coming to?
"I was waiting for you." Sebastian said in a low voice only meant for Annette.
Annette blushed and looked over at me. Finally remembering I was standing only two feet from her. "Sebastian I would like you to meet my friend Kathryn."
He looked over at me and gave me lazy smile. "Pleasure." He murmured and turned back to Annette.
To say I wasn't being used to being treated like this was an understament. I silenltly fumed as Sebastian and Annette had their private conversation. Finally I couldn't take it any longer and walked away. I was furious and banged open my locker. As I was shoving books in I felt a presence behind me. Sebastian leaned into me and smirked. "Not used to being overlooked huh Princess?" He asked in an amused voice.
The funny thing is that if it was anyone else I would slap right there. But his close presence unnerved me more the I would like to admit. I ignored him and slammed my locker shut. I felt a hand on my waist as he guided me towards him. We were inches apart and he leaned in his face close. "I could never overlook you." He whispered in my ear and in an instant he was gone.
