Thanks for all the positive reviews! It totally made me update! Woo-hoo! Keep it up, please! So, who's psyched for the Olympics? Just to tell you, I'll probably update all my stories tomorrow, so get ready for a blast! I'm totally free tomorrow, but way swamped today.
Is it getting hotter? Gosh!
For Ghetto Goat and Sour Muffins:
You guys may be lazy butts, but thanks for reviewing anyways!
Oh, and your question Ghetto Goat, Kristen is going to room with Derrick, but she's going to be disguised as a guy, so he won't know it's Kristen. Plus, he never really talked to her much, and they never hung out. OH, and he doesn't know her well at all, doesn't know her last name, doesn't really know what she looks like, or that she plays soccer. Confusing? I know! But, I had to put some kind of boundary there, so sorry if it doesn't make complete sense. And by the way, I didn't get the idea from "She's the Man", I didn't even see the movie, but after you mentioned it, I totally wanna watch it now!
Anyways, I hope this answered your question, I tried my best to make this chapter as smooth (non-awkward and non-confusing)!
Please R&R, and enjoy! (Long update, I hope)
Could I possibly pass off as a guy for 3 years? Is it believable? Whatever, there's no stopping now. I thought.
At home, I had last minute packing, I mean there was only a 3 days until I'd be (happily) shipped off to my all-time dream state. And to be there, on a scholarship, with no parents? That'll be heaven.
My LV suitcase and LeSportsac suitcase were stuffed. I had a few carry-on's for electronics, and for extra clothes. I had packed…
-makeup (Sephora and M.A.C.)
-like 5 months worth of clothes (mostly RL and Calvin Klein) including:
-underwear
-jackets
-sweaters
-shorts
-polo's
-jeans
-tanks?
-tee's
-shoes
-socks
-electronics (old, hand-me-down Mac book, iPod nano, new LG Shine cell phone, electronic planner, small stereo, alarm clock)
-hair product (hairspray, curler, straightener, brush, comb, hair gel, water spray bottle)
-accessories (messenger bag, wristbands, wallet, chains, keychains, soccer ball)
(Anything else? I know I'm leaving something out.)
For my room, I packed….
-blankets
-fleece throws
-pillow cases/pillows
-lamps
-desks
-tables
-chairs
-bed mattress
-boxes
-trash can
-bookshelf
-books
-rugs
-game consoles
-anything else that's guy-ish colorful
After 30 minutes, I was stumped. I couldn't believe everything I'd packed in less than a week! I was definitely prepared; I just might need some more stuff when I got there.
Packing-check
Convince Parents to give me 100 a week to spend at school- next
Convince Parents to not make me seem like a baby when I leave-soon
Send sad bye-bye emails to friends/boyfriend-now
I signed into my email,
I remember when I first made it, Massie had said something pretty funny that day. It cracked me up so hard, that I had to make it my email, and even now I laugh a little.
-Flashback- (sigh, I bet you've read so many of these)
We were in History class, and our teacher, Mrs. Lenley was taking roll. When she passed the new girl's name, Massie spoke up, and whispered to the new girl sitting next to her. She was a petite blond with brown streaks. She had somewhat of a uni-brow, but flattering makeup on. On her size 3 body, she wore regular size Citizen Jeans and a blank light green top. Massie said it barely enough so the new "Kristen" and I could hear, but not the teacher. The new girl had the same name as me. For some reason, Massie couldn't take it.
"Okay, you have to change your name, because the most athletic, smartest, girl is named Kristen. The girl sitting next to me is my bff, and I cannot have you have the same name as her. That's an identity problem. So, change it. And if you ever try to be like her you're D2M. Are we clear? Why don't you change it to Krystal instead? Sound good. Perfect." Massie said it super-slow to her, to make sure she'd understand and so it would make the new "Kristen" feel stupid, for having the same name as her bff. I gave Massie a thumbs-up, and glared at the new girl at the same time. I was showing off to her, that my bff was totally protective and more popular.
Massie's next announcement stole the show and cracked up the classroom. "Mrs. Lenley, hold on please." She said, before she finished calling roll.
"Yes, Ms. Block? Is there a problem? Don't worry I already called your name." Mrs. Lenley replied not even looking up from her roll call sheet.
"Well, kind of. The new girl, Kristen Alenn, yea well, you got her name wrong. It's Krystal, not Kristen." My bff announced proudly. Luckily, "Krystal" Alenn didn't speak up or correct her.
A few kids snickered and giggled.
(There are no boys in this class.)
"Oh-kay. And how do you know this?"
"Well, I've known "Krystal" 3 years before she came here. I know for sure her name is Krystal, not Kristen. Okay? So, just go on with the class." Massie finished and waved her hand away to indicate she was done.
"And is this true, Ms. Alenn?" Every face turned to the new blonde girl. They were waiting for either an embarrassment or the truth, either way, Massie would win.
"Yes." She squeaked.
After class, at lunch, Massie and I couldn't contain our laughter. We burst, and let the whole school we were having the most fun. What was even funnier, was that "Krystal" thought Massie did that announcement as some kind of joke or prank to show she wanted to be friends with her. Oh, so wrong. So wrong, "Krystal".
"Hey Massie, right? Can I sit here with you and Kristen?" She muttered, she managed a smile, but Massie instantly broke it.
They stopped giggling and turned to face her. Was Krystal serious? There was no way, Massie Block the alpha of all alphas was going to take in the new girl, except for Claire Lyons of course. That was her one exception.
"Uhh.. Kristen did I hear right? Did "Krystal" just talk to us? Gasp!" Massie laughed.
We were leaning on the table, and Krystal looked like she was about to fall onto her knees and beg for our friendship. We looked like queens compared to her slave-ness.
"I don't think you heard right. "Krystal" must be talking to the wrong person. There's no way she would be asking for your friendship, I mean c'mon we're the most beautiful most popular girls at this school." I emphasized the "Krystal" and "most beautiful most popular girls at this school".
"That's so true, Kristen. Anyways, maybe "Krystal" should go find her own friends. Or even better, "Krystal" can be a loner the entire time she's here. Do you agree "Krystal"?" Massie confidently finished. She was obviously done talking to her. She emphasized Krystal three times, and she knew Krystal wouldn't be able to come back with an acceptable comeback.
"Oh-kay then. Cya." She whispered. She was already humiliated enough. Krystal ran off crying and sad.
"Bye, Krystal!" I shouted her name, and was totally proud of myself.
-End Flashback-
And that's why my email is named Krist3n4ever, it's because I would always stay Kristen, and I'd always be the only special one. No one would ever stop me. But now, it cracks me up, because I'm no longer Kristen, I'm Kristopher. I guess maybe it's time to get a new email.
Sure, Massie and I were being mean but that was then. What we didn't know was that, that was our last fun time together. Because, now, we had boyfriends, and different cliques. We just weren't friends anymore. And now, I was separating that connection even more by moving to Hawaii.
Anyways, I drafted 10 emails to different people. I didn't have time to edit and send each one. So, I just took care and time for one special one.
--xx--
TO: Davey Wintwar (DaveDave&)
FROM: Kristen Gregory ()
SUBJECT: sorry.
Umm..hey Dav. I know I've been so rough on you and totally rude. It's so my fault, and don't think you did anything to deserve the way I've been treating you. I just was having a rough time and it just wasn't the perfect moment for me to have a boyfriend. Especially one so cute and sweet, like you.
Anyways, I hope someday I can see you again, and maybe go on another one of those carnival dates you love so much. I know we never went on one, even though you've wanted to forever. It's my fault, again, sorry. (Maybe you'll go on one with another girl)
The point is I'm leaving. I'm going to another boarding school in another state. I won't see you for another 3 years, maybe even longer. So, adios.
(We're breaking up, I hope this email is clear on that.)
I'll never forget you, and I hope you always remember the good times we've had together, not the bad and rough.
You've been the most perfect guy I've ever known. Don't ever change that.
I love ya.
Kristen!
:)

SNEAK PEEK:
Yay! Kristen's off to Kahla! Yes, she sent all those emails, including the special one to Davey.
:)
Let's just say, she's not doing as well as she planned to when she gets there, but the waves are awesome!! Haha!
Please review! And catch the next chapter tomorrow!
