Yay! Chapter One! I'm probably not going to pay attention to the fashion a lot, but oh well. I'm making up all the date and time, so I don't really care what year it is.

"How do I look?" Massie asked, as she twirled around in a DKNY Ruffled Tank Dress.

Her best friends, Alicia Rivera, Dylan Marvil, Kristen Gregory, and Claire Lyons stuck their heads out of their dressing rooms to see. As usual, Massie looked fabulous!

"Nine point seven," they all said in unison. Massie smiled.

It was the holidays, and BOCD had let the students out early for winter vacation. Massie and her best friends, AKA, the Pretty Committee, the most popular girls at BOCD, or atleast, was. The group tried to go on boyfast, but that seemed impossible. Massie had finally declared boyfast over, and the PC was back to normal. The only thing that had different, was their alpha status. Massie needed a way to get them back on top, she just needed and idea how.

"Massie, you do notice that it's winter, right?" Claire inquired.

"Point!"

Massie put her hands on her hips. Let's see what your wearing then, Kuh-laire."

Claires face turned red. She didn't know much about fashion. She just threw in a bunch of designer clothes in her bunch. She stepped out. Claire wore a long, navy and avocado-ugly-green striped Splendid sweater, Aztec LA Wash Jeans, and of course, rhinestone-covered Keds. Claire thought she looked reasonable.

"Nine point three," Massie examined. "Nine point five if you lose the Keds, and if you add a little for accent"

The rest of the Pretty Committee shook their heads yes. "But I ah-dore the top!" Kristen said. Claire smiled at Kristen.

"How are you going to afford all that?" Alicia asked.

Claire smiled in confidence. She went back into her dressing room, and picked out something from the back of the jeans she had worn today.

She walked back out, waving it in her hands.

"You got a credit card?" Massie gasped.

Claire grinned. Claire finally decided to use her Dial L for Loser money, and her mother set it up all on a credit card, but of course it was under Judi Lyons.

"Then why are you still wearing Keds?"

"Keds are like my trademark!" Claire insisted. She decided to change the subject. "Are any of you excited for Christmas?"

"I am," Dylan said. "I can't wait for the Christmas feast!"

"But I'm not going anywhere," Kristen said.

Massie walked back into her dressing room. She liked Christmas too, but she didn't want to act like a total kid when it comes to presents under the Christmas tree. Really, Massie didn't like the Christmas tree, it looked so lonely.

"Me and Josh are going to be kissing under the mistletoe," Alicia called.

"Cam and I made up," Claire said. "Todd gave me a bag of gummy worms, and he said it was from Cam and it had a note to come to his house. A matter fact, Todd made it up just to get us back together!"

"Ah-dorable!" Kristen said. "Hey Massie, are you getting back with Derrington?"

A question Massie didn't know how to answer. Of course she still liked Derrington, but after he and the boys took the alpha status, Massie couldn't stand him. She needed a way to get to the top. "Ew, no, not after her stole our popularity," she said confidently. "He's sooooo dead to me." Massie stepped out of her dressing room wearing a Ella Moss Newport Striped Dress. "Rate me."

"Nine," Claire stuck her head out of the dressing room.

"Nine?" Massie blurted. She always got higher than a nine point five.

Claire shrugged. "It's winter."

"Point!"

Massie narrowed her eyes. She put her hand on her hips. "Kuh-laire, are you a poor dress maker?" The other girls giggled.

Claire shook her head, afraid to hear the answer.

"Then why are you ripping off my material?"

Alicia, Dylan, and Kristen burst out laughing. Massie smiled to herself.

"Let's get down to buisness," Massie said straightening her voice. She really needed to knock Derrington off the top.

"But I'm still trying on clothes!" Dylan whined. "I lost a full 18 pounds! I need a set of new clothes." The rest of the girls clapped, happy for Dylan's latest accomplishment.

"C'mon AWN you guys! I was tawking about how we can become popular before our break is over. Now, none of us are going anywhere, are we?"

"No."

"Good, we need something extravagant, somthing ah-mazing, something totally alpha!"

"Like a party?" Alicia suggested.

"Ah-greed," Massie cried. It was a perfect idea. "I'll just call Landon Dorsey, the theme will be..." Massie hesitated. "Secret Santas! Everybody, get some party clothes!"

"Done," Alicia said.

"Done," Kristen squealed.

"And Done!" The NPC said together.

Not my best... next chapter should be more interesting... I hope.
