At the end of the day, Wren opened her locker as Gwin walked up, surrounded by her posse of friends, as usual.
"Wren, you will never guess what happened. Cameron asked me out. You know, Cameron Stark? Well, he finally asked me out, you know how I've liked him since forever, so we're going to the movies. I just wanted to let you know that you can go home without me." Said Gwin, smiling.
"But Gwin, we were supposed to go for smoothies after school today. Remember? We planned to walk there after the bus leaves. And it just left. Am I supposed to walk home? We've been planning this for a month, you can't just ditch me like this." accused her twin, eyes narrowed, as if trying to force her to change her mind.
"Come on!" She complained as she looked into her sister's eyes. "I've wanted to go out with him since forever, and I can't just tell him 'oh, sorry, I'll have to cancel on that date, I'm going for smoothies instead. Maybe we'll go out on another day?' Do you know how lame that sounds? If I say no, I might never get to go out with him, and it'll be your fault. Do you want to ruin my life?"
"No, I want to go get smoothies with my sister. I want you to come, instead of ditching me. I want to have a sister that cares more about me than a stupid crush." Tears welled up, and she furiously wiped them out of her eyes.
Gwin glared at Wren. "I thought that my sister would be happy that the guy I've like for so long finally asked me out. You could at least pretend to be happy for me, and complain when we got home, or even just let it go. Would it kill you just to be happy for me? I thought that you were my sister."
"And I thought sisters aren't supposed to ditch each other for a boy." The tears were flowing freely now. Wren gave up on trying to wipe them away and let them run down her face, a river flowing down her cheek. "Forget it, alright? Forget I'm here, that this happened, and that we wanted to spend some time together. Just go, see if I care." She slammed her locker shut, and ran down the hall, leaving Gwin in the dust, watching her sister disappear around the corner.
"Wow." She heard someone say. "Somebody's got issues…don't worry, she'll simmer down eventually. She's just jealous that you're going out with Cameron, and she doesn't even have friends. Let's go."
"Yeah, sure, whatever." Mumbled Gwin as she continued to stare at the spot where her sister vanished from view, feeling like she should have run after her.
