CH 2: The New Girl
Presley's POV:
About a month after we accepted Janna in the clique, a new girl named Adriana Ramirez comes. Adriana was seriously beauty. She was automatically fit. McKenna, Mackenzie, Jadyn, Ashland, Hayley, and I were talking about who should be kicked out. We did it without Janna because she was absent.
"Well, not to be mean, but I say we should let Janna go," Mackenzie said, "She's new, and not really all that pretty."
"I vote Janna," Hayley said, "Prius, you did a good job fixing her up, but I think Adriana has more natural beauty."
"Janna," Jadyn, Ashland, and McKenna said in unison.
"Janna it is," I said, smirking. I wouldn't tell her. We all deleted her cell phone number, and took Adriana's.
The next day, we completely ignored Janna. My insulin levels were unbalanced, and I was super cranky. All of the girls could tell at lunch.
"You feeling right, Prius," Hayley asked.
"My insulin levels are unbalanced."
"Hey, you guys completely ignored me today, why," Janna asked, "And why is this Mexican chick in my seat? She doesn't belong in our group." We all looked offended. I felt bad for Adriana because she's the new girl, and Janna's remark was quite racist.
"Um, who are you," I asked, "And are you a racist?"
"I'm Jan-" Janna started, but Kenzie cut her off.
"We don't need the hour-long introduction, Marks," Mackenzie flared, "You're kicked out of our group. Adriana replaced you. And for your information, ugly, I'm reporting you."
"Who was that," Adriana asked sounding a little hurt.
"Janna Marks, the ugly girl you replaced," McKenna said.
"She's a racist," I said, "Always ridiculing African-Americans and Mexicans. But, we kicked her out because we figured you wouldn't be a racist or anything."
"Yeah, we have your back," Mackenzie smiled. Her smile suddenly turned into a frown, "If Janna Marks EVER says any racist remark to you, tell us. We can deal with her." Janna ran off, crying. I was smiling.
"So, getting back to what I was saying," Adriana said, "living in California wasn't necessarily the worst time of my life. I liked surfing and going to the beach a lot. It was like a permanent vacation."
"Do you own a house by the shore," McKenna asked.
"We actually do. That's where we lived for the last two years. I was homeschooled there," Adriana said.
"Do you think we could go down there together in the summer," Hayley asked.
"Sure," Adriana said, "But it has five bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms."
"That's okay," I said, "We'll manage." I smiled. Winter break was coming up and we had two and a half weeks off.
