To answer one of your questions. Yes, Claire will be in this story. But, I'm not sure about Kristen. Do you want her in it?

Rivera's Residence
Alicia's Bedroom
6:45 P.M.

Massie sighed, she was sprawled out on Alicia's bed, reading the latest edition of Seventeen. "What's the matter?" Alicia's voice could be heard from the walk in closet. "All these fashion tips in this magazine are all sooo..." Massie couldn't think of the word. "Cliché?" Alicia offered. "Exactly!" Massie shot up from the bed and skipped over to Alicia's closet. "Whatcha doin?" Massie tilted her head to the right and looked at Alicia's face. Determination was written all over this girls face and that meant: MOVE OUT OF THE WAY PEOPLE! THIS COULD GET UGLY! "I'm trying to find an outfit to wear to the school dance next Friday, but I don't have anything good to wear!" Alicia exclaimed. Massie looked around Alicia's closet. Was she serious? You could clothe every single person in Africa with the amount of clothes she has. "Shopping spree?" Alicia pleaded. Massie loooved clothes, they were ah-maz-ing! don't get her wrong. She just hated the people that SOLD those ah-maz-ing clothes. They were so snoody and acted like they owned the place-- which half the time they did...but still! "Fine" Massie sighed, trying to be the good friend she was.

7:37 P.M.

"Ehmagawd!" Alicia gasped while walking by a rack of dresses. "How cuh-yoot are these Mass?... Mass?...Mass? Where'd ya go?" Alicia called out. "Right behind you!" Alicia turned around to find Massie buried under a pile of jeans, rain coats and sweaters. "Sorry" Alicia cried, rushing over to Massie. When Massie finally escaped the clothes she let out a sigh of relief, "I swear..you just never see that clearance rack coming!" Massie cried. Alicia burst into a fit of giggles and stopped mid giggle. "Oh" "My" "Gosh" Both M & A stated. Hanging before them was the limited edition Black Label Angelina Dress. The white fabric was perrr-fect for Massie, it made her skin glow and it was just the right length to show off her long, toned legs. "Sophisticated in that modern way we adore. Yet another reason to love Alicia Moss." Alicia read aloud. "I think I'm in love" Massie sighed dreamily.

2 Weeks Later…

Duke Academy
Study Hall
11:56 A.M.

Massie sat at her desk, reading "Hamlet" for her English class. 'Could this book be any lamer?' Massie thought to herself. She decided to put down the book and let her mind drift. The past couple weeks had been amazing. Going shopping with Alicia and Sadie (who had now become friends), playing frisbee with the gang at the park, getting an 'A' on her science test and going to the dance with Derrick. Which had turned out to be actually…a blast!

Flashback

"Massie! What are you so nervous about? That dress looks killer on you and Derrick could care less about what you wear!" Dylan reassured Massie who had been pacing around her bedroom for the past 10 minutes. "Yeah and besides it's Derrick…he looooves you" Alicia laughed as she inspected her freshly coated nails. Massie stopped dead in her tracks. "Love?" Massie softly asked. Dylan noticed the change in Massie's voice and quickly covered Alicia's mistake up. "She's just kidding!" Dylan giggled, "You know Alicia and her sense of humor!" Dylan stepped on Alicia's foot. "OW!" Alicia screeched. "You really think he…loves...me?" Massie asked bewildered. "Well...I personally don't think your there yet. I mean come on! It's only been about a week in a half. But, just…" Dylan started. "HAVE YOU SEEN THE WAY HE LOOKS AT YOU!?" Alicia butted in. Dylan stepped on Alicia's foot again, "OW!" Alicia screamed while holding her foot, "I need these for dancing tonight!" Alicia whined. Dylan just rolled her eyes, "Sweetie, even if we or should I say Alicia thinks he loves you…doesn't mean it's true." Dylan explained. By this time Massie was completely zoned out.' Alicia's words kept replaying, over and over again inside her head. "Derrick loooves you". "Love?" Massie was so confused.

"Pssst..." came a whisper from 2 desks to her right. Massie looked over to find Derrick, attempting to grab her attention. "What?" she mouthed. Derrick pointed to the note he had thrown onto her desk. Massie picked it up, unfolded it, and read the message inside:

So I was reading this story over the weekend about how this guy had an amazing time at the dance with this girl and he tried texting her, but she never returned any of his texts. Did he do something wrong? Was his cologne too strong? I kept asking myself all these questions. Sadly the story doesn't have an ending, at least not yet. Mind finishing it for me?

Massie had been holding her breath the entire time she had been reading the note. She liked Derrick… that was ah-vious! It was just, a few weeks before this she had been a different person. One who was very independent and grounded; she knew what she wanted. Now it's as if she was depending on her friends more than ever. She was careless now. Not caring if she was top dog in school anymore or what she wore or who she talked to…and this confused her. He confused her. He did a lot of things to her. When she was around him, she couldn't help but smile. When she wasn't around him, she felt lost. If he grazed her arm by accident, shivers ran up and down her spine. When he smiled at her, his eyes sparkled, as if they were saying "you mean something to me" and that just made her want to break down and cry. She never felt like that with anyone before and she was beginning wonder if she ever would again.

Massie decided to cut Derrick some slack and smiled up at him. Derrick's nerves calmed down and he smiled back. She responded on the back of the note and threw it across the room.

Dear D,

I'm sorry to say that I don't have an ending to that story.

Massie didn't know if she should tell Derrick her true feelings or not…

I don't think I ever will.

But she was willing to give it a shot.

Why end something that's going so perfectly?

peace & love. Massie :)

Derrick looked up from her note and smiled. The one smile that meant something. The one smile that made her feel important. The one smile, that she fell in love with.

So I'm not sure if I should continue this series anymore. I don't think many people like, love it soo..I'll post one more chapter after this and if no one says anything then I'll stop.
