Suze's POV

I went to the ladies room after having some diet coke and salad (WHAT? A girl needs to have a figure you know) I had put some mascara and was putting my lip gloss on when I heard this bitchy voice go all…

"I know you like him AND want him Suze!"

Ohh right! Just what I wanted, a chat with Maria Debitcho.

NOT!

So I said "what the friggin hell are you talking about Maria?" Only I didn't say friggin.

"Ohh god! You're such a geek! Of course, Jesse" she said.

For which I said "WHAT? Did someone hit you on your head or something? Ohh! Wait you wouldn't need that, since it's pretty obvious you're a natural nut head! Because, me and Jesse, since you've so miserably failed to notice, are best friends! Duh"

"Whatever! Just stay away from him, because he's MINE! GOT IT?" she replied venomously.

I got furious and I spitefully said "Ohh puh-lease Maria! Just keep your stinking overly large nose out of my business! because the last time I checked I got to decide to whom I'll speak or do whatever. If I want to speak to my best friend I will"

She said a suspicious "uh-huh" and went just like that, something really smells fishy here.

Then I went back to the table and found Paul and the other guys chatting. I told them a quick bye and was on my way to class when SOMEone 'accidently' splashed sos onto my prada avenue bag.

OH.

MY.

GOD.

Whoever did this is gonna freaking pay for this. Ohh yeah! And I very well happen to know who that SOMEone is. Yeah you're right! Only someone as daft as Maria could have done something as lame as this. Bloody bitch!

My fist connected to her face within a second and the next second she was screaming "OW! OW my eye!. You friggin bitch! You'll pay for this"

"Ohh yeah! And who's gonna pay for my PRADA avenue handbag you nut?" Only she didn't say friggin and I didn't say nut.

Just then I heard Jesse go all " Nombre de dios, Susannah! What have you done to Maria?"

For which I replied saying "I just gave her an idea about what happens when you mess with Susannah Simon."

"Apologize to her right NOW!" he said livid but trying to maintain a calm expression.

For which I said "I will NOT!"

"Apologize to her or else…" he said and paused for sometime and then said "….or else we won't have any reason to hang out anymore!"

For a second, only a second I thought I saw a look of regret, a look that said I-wanna-stuff-those-words-back-down-into-my-throat , cross his features. Maybe I imagined it. Whatever it was, I didn't wait to reflect upon it.

By now the whole dining hall had gone totally silent and everyone was watching these happenings like it was a movie or something. I heard the sound of the outbreak of the wild whispering that followed Jesse's words.

Before I could change my mind about doing anything but, I said "Thanks Jesse! Thanks for being such a 'wonderful' friend. Your breaking our years long friendship, for a bitch who you met just today! Thanks a bunch. And I am NOT apologizing to skanks." Attempting to collected I was Shocked at how hurt my voice sounded.

"Do not call Maria names, Susannah! And since you're not apologizing, I geuss it's goodbye then!" Jesse said now a little softly.

"Fine then" I said.

"Fine"

"Fine" I said and stomped out of the hall.

I was literally shocked! Me and Jesse, we never fought like this. He ditched me for a bitchy skank like Maria? Git! That too in front of the whole school! Argh!

Now I was sitting in class and Paul came over and sat next to me. He's too sweet! And made me laugh so much and hey! I was having fun.

Paul's POV

So, my first lunch hour turned out to be very amusing! Almost like out of some movie. Suze is way cooler than I imagined. Everything she did – hit Maria on the face and then not apologize for it – made me like her even more (if that's even possible). She looked even hotter when she got angry! Something Jesse De Idioto cannot notice. Like I said blind much?

Anyways good thing he is, because that leaves Suze all to myself, aaahhhh! So I headed to class and found her looking sullen in the back row. I joined her and she brightened up slightly.

I couldn't look at Suze like this. I like the fiery, tough and stubborn Suze. So I made her laugh and we chatted a lot and I could make out she was having fun, because she didn't even notice Jesse fussing over Maria's bad eye but subconsciously staring at Suze looking guilty.

That ass. Like I'll let them become friends again. Yeah, not even friends. So I glared at him, he glared back and looked away.

That skank, Maria, was clinging to his arm, batting her eyelashes at him and giving Suze the evil eye (that's almost funny because Maria's got this real ugly bruise on one of her eye. All thanks to Suze the charming!).

"So Suze," I asked her "I heard from the guys that the football tryouts are today"

She just nodded in reply. So to brighten her up I added with some dramatic effect "So will the charming young lady bestow upon me the pleasure of her gracious presence?"

For which Suze replied "I indeed will, if you wish so" with a cursey and a smile I'm sure would have gotten any guy swooning at her feet. Answer to that? It took all my determination to not come across as a wimp to stop myself from doing just that.

And then after class before the football tryouts Suze wished me an all the best and kissed me on the cheek and I was delighted to notice that at the same Jesse entered the locker room.

He stared at Suze who was blushing furiously by now and then glared at me and then his face became devoid of any emotions. During the tryouts Suze kept cheering me on. There was something in Suze's cheers that helped me play even better (I know its weird coming from me but it DID!)

And you know WHAT? I'm the vice captain! Jesse De Idioto is the captain. His face when the coach said me, that I'd be vice captain and when Suze gave me this huge hug was priceless! And I'd do any DAMN thing for Suze to keep hugging me like that.

Then I dropped her to her place in my Mercedes. She invited me to have dinner there. I met her family and I could make out they liked me a lot too. Nice going Paul!
