Chapter One

Claire Edwards brushed a strand of light brown hair,that had escaped her tight ponytail,from her eyes and straightened up her white blouse.

Her friend,Alli Bhundari shook her head at her slowly. "I can't believe that you still insist on wearing that stupid school girl costume!" She said,leaning against her locker.

Claire looked at her. "It's NOT a costume it's an..." she started.

Alli waved a hand at her dismissiveley. "It's a costume. Your not in that Christian Girls School anymore."

Claire looked down at herself with a frown. "It isn't that bad. Besides,I don't want to look like something I'm not."

Alli laughed. "You don't have to look like something your not. You can still look like a good girl and not be wearing that. Listen,how about we go to the mall today? Sav will be at football practice and my parents will still be at work,we can take the bus."

Claire bit her bottom lip,ducking her head down. "But,it's a school day and what will I tell my mom and dad?"

"Just tell them the truth." Alli said simply. It was almost as if she was stating that the sky was blue or the grass was green.

Claire looked away for a moment. What could it hurt? "Okay." She said,giving in.

Alli smiled brightly and leaned in to give her a hug. "Great!! Lets meet up here at the end of the day." She said as they headed torwards the cafeteria.

They took a seat at their usual table with KC and Connor after getting their lunches. KC smiled at Claire as soon as she sat down. The four friends began talking about their classes.

"So,Claire. What are you doing after school today?" KC asked,turning his attention fully on her.

Claire smiled about to answer.

"We're going to the mall." Alli answered for her with a bright smile.

KC looked at her in a teasing way. "Your not scared you will get in trouble?" He joked softly. Giving her his sweet smile.

Claire blushed self conciously under his gaze.

At the end of the day Alli and Claire told Connor and KC goodbye and walked to The Dot,catching the bus that would take them to the mall.
