June 5

Claire Lyons was sitting on her bed thinking about how boring her life was. She just found out yesterday that Massie, Alicia and Dylan are all going on some sort of fah-bulous vacation. Massie is going to Hawaii, Alicia is going to Spain and Dylan is going to the Bahamas. Kristen and Claire are stuck in stupid Westchester! Kristen said she can't go anywhere because one: she still needs to finish the scholarship essay or something and two: she's too poor. Claire can't go anywhere because her parents say since they just moved here a few months ago, they should check out the town and stuff. Hopefully Kristen and I will become better friends. Claire thought to herself.

Claire and Kristen got along and all but, they weren't that good of friends. Pretty much like the rest of the PC except Massie. All of a sudden, Claire's cell started ringing.

Cl- eh Cl-eh

Cl- eh Cl- eh

She quickly got up from her bed and grabbed her phone from her desk where her computer was. "Hello?" Claire said lying back down on her bed.

"Hey Kuh-laire! It's Massie. Look I know your upset about being alone and all. But, you and Kristen should try and get along more." Massie said. She sounded like she was packing the way she was talking so fast.

"Yeah I know…" Claire really wanted to get to know Kristen more but she wasn't sure if Kristen even likes her that much.

"Maybe you two should hang out tonight since me, Leesh, and Dyl are leaving in… 20 minutes."

"You guys are riding together?" Claire asked.

"Well, only to the airport. Hopefully this trip will help me relax and get my mind off Derrington." Massie really needed relaxation. All she really talked about now is how she hated Derrington and how our social lives are ruined and blah blah blah…

"Look I got to go, I'll call when I get to Hawaii. Bye!" Massie said.

"Later…" Claire figured she was going to have to call Kristen sooner or later so she guess she'll do it now. Before she could even dial it her mom called her.

"Claire! Will you come down here please?" Claire's mom, Judi, called.

"Coming!" Claire ran down stairs. Her parents were sitting at the kitchen table drinking coffee and chatting.

"Claire, your mother and I think that since your friends are going on vacation, you could get a summer job." Claire's dad said.

"But Kristen isn't going anywhere!" Claire really didn't want a job. What if the boys or some of the LBRs saw her? What would they do? Would they laugh, make fun, or call her an LBR?

"Well, Kristen's mother called us and said Kristen is also getting a job at that adorable smoothie store, Smoothie Paradise." Judi said.

"Fine…" She didn't think it would be that bad since Kristen will be with her right? "I'll be in my room."

"Ok dear." Judi said.

Claire slowly made her way up to her room. Out of all the places she could work why Smoothie Paradise? People barely even go in there. But, at least it's better then McDonald's or Burger King.

As she made it in her room. Claire decided she should call Kristen now. So she did.

"Hello?" Claire heard Kristen say on the other line.

"Hey Kristen, it's me, Claire."

"Oh hey! Did you hear about Smoothie Paradise?" Kristen ah-bviously didn't seem too flattered about the idea.

"Yeah it totally sucks…"

"I know! I can't believe our parents! Their even making us start tomorrow!"

"Great and on a Saturday…" Claire was relieved on how easy Kristen was to talk to. She wasn't like the others, always worrying about themselves. She actually cares about other people like Claire does.

"Yeah… hey, want to hang out tonight? We can go to Slice of Heaven?" Kristen suggested. Yes! She doesn't hate me! Claire thought.

"Sure! I was gonna ask the same thing. Meet me at my house around 7, K?"

"K, see you then, Later!" Kristen replied cheerfully.

"Bye!" Claire couldn't wait to meet Kristen. This is actually the first time they ever talked.

She walked into her closet to pick out an outfit. She settled with a Ralph Lauren polo, (Alicia gave her for her birthday) Lucky jeans, and polka dotted keds with a Coach bag. She sat her outfit on her desk chair and decided to take a short nap. She slowly drifted off into sleep thinking about how much fun her and Kristen will have at Slice of Heaven.

Ok so there is the first chapter! It's not that good or long because well, it's the first chapter! The next will have the boys and some drama! Review! Need 10 reviews!!
