Kk I'm trying to get a lot of chapters in before my co-writers moves to London, which is at the complete other side of the world for me, cause I'm well American. So Arielle this is for you and your chocolate "balloon".

Oh and I'm going back to writing in Reiquen's POV.

Broken Porcelain Doll

Chapter 6

I hate gym, I really hate gym. I am not an athletic person; I do not find any sport amusing, nor enjoyable at the least. Further more I still cannot understand why the popular girls strut in their lacy lingerie around the change room flaunting the fact that they happen to be what is considered "sexy".

I myself happen to be larger than average in the bust, personally I cant stand it, it's not attractive in my eyes. Ellie is also quite large, but she well she is okay with it. I hide in the corner and change to hide my body, flustered and embarrassed by how the women in my class can act while Ellie hides in the bathroom as she changes.

Gym class has one good high point. It's the one class where Trixie actually shuts-up and people forget her title in the school. Why? Just because Trixie was practically flat. While her pack goes about giggling and rubbing their chests with body glitter to attract any male eyes around the school, Trixie merely ignores them and fills her bra with two gel filled packs. I think Ellie called them helpers, but I couldn't say if that's what they are actually called but either way I could see the embarrassment in the ebony-haired beauty's eyes.

Even so I don't feel sorry for her. I don't think Ellie does either because once Trixie leaves that change room and prances over to Chad and Tad's sides, she is Queen once more.

That in itself is a sickening thought to me, Ellie, and any other girl under her reign who would rather not be there at all.

I walked out from the change room long before anyone else, the disgust that I endure every time I enter that wood room had taught me if anything to change quickly.

"Guess who," a voice rang as grabby hands covered my eyes.

"I know it's you Ellie," I said bluntly as I pried her hands off my face, "Who else you defy my personal space in such a manor."

"I donno," she spoke with a naughty tone clinging to her voice, "Chester?"

I sighed, "Ellie I can't go out with Chester."

"But you do like him?"

"I can't answer that. Beside's I just wanted to make sure, you know what happened earlier at lunch…I mean."

"Oh that? Its fine! I totally believe you plus I'm pretty sure it was one of the deranged popular girls who left it there! The one that did was probably trying some unorthodox diet or whatever."

"So were good?"

"Were great! Now back to you and Chester-"

"Ellie!"

"No you're going to like this! When I was in the bathroom changing I over heard about a party at Tad and Chad's, it's on the same night as the dance!"

"So?"

"So there aren't going to be any crowds! Everyone that isn't a complete loser in there eyes is going, no offence but that only leaves you me and couple other people! That way you and Chester can go without what ever happens to you happening and I can go with Timmy and be myself at a dance for once!"

"Timmy asked you?"

"Yeah but were only going as friends! And I already told Timmy and AJ about the party so that's covered! And…wait you are going to come aren't you?"

"Well…I…I…. okay just as long as you're right about this party thing."

"Oh I Know I am but do you have a dress?

"Of course I do, I just wore one a couple days ago-"

"No, no, no! I mean a real dress! The dance is a formal welcome back to school dance, dress wear only!"

I starred at Ellie for a few moments then shook my head truthfully. I never found the use for anything fancy, the only thing I wear that is even remotely formal just happens to be a white silk corset trimmed with black lace on the edges and across the latches.

"you know what this means," she said practically forcing herself not to leap into the air out of shear joy, "SHOPPING TRIP!"

Then predictably she took a step and slipped landing butt first onto the wooden floor of the gym.

"So do you want to go together," Chester asked me for what I now realize was the second time.

I bit my bottom lip for a moment contemplating. It was after all just a bunch of kids talking and dancing to music. Nothing was going to happen…at least I don't think anything could happen. The only problem I had was quickly found when I looked up at his blue eyes, my stomach twisted into an unfamiliar shape and I could feel the heat rising between my legs as if some one had lit a slimy fire in my silky garment.

"Yes," I let out in more of a gurgle trying to keep the knots in my stomach at bay, "no crowds… it sounds fun."

"Well that's great then I guess I pick you up at 7 tomorrow then, I'll umm… I'll call you," he stuttered out stepping backwards so he would be late for class but not before tilting my face up to look at him and planting a dry kiss upon my cheek. Then he ran off for class leaving me rather flustered, red, and above all…wet.

I stood in the shop with Ellie by my side, actually I was more slumping. She dragged me into a shop full of such girly items I wouldn't know how to use. Each dress was either short and tight, or strapless and frilly.

"This is uncomfortable," I mumbled twiddling a piece of hair in-between my fingers.

"Oh but you would look so nice in white!"

"I would look even better in black, please the place where I shop is just up the isle, and they have formal dresses!"

"Fine, after all I already have my dress so I guess checking out that store couldn't hurt."

I lead her to the store better known in Dimmsdale as "Virus". Ellie starred in awe at the amount of black contained in the store as well as boots, collars, spiked accessories and corsets of all types. I lead her to the back wear they kept the formal wear. As uncomfortable as she was in Virus Ellie managed to keep her cool and sent me into the change rooms to try on the gowns she picked. I may have hated her idea of fashion but she did know what liked the most after I sent her in the right direction.

The third dress she passed to me was the one she and I liked the most. It was black and strapless with a corset sewn into the back. Underneath it had a built in crinoline along with a lacy edge along the bottom and small silky buttons all up the back above the small corset.

"Wow, you do look better in black than in white! That's the dress now can we go before this store scares me into crapping my pants," she said hurriedly as she pushed me back into the change room to change back into my regular clothes.

As Ellie and I stood waiting for a bus to come along so that I could get home and check up on 'everyone' she asked me something rather while it wasn't something I was really interested in.

"Can you walk in heels?"

"Yes," I answered, "I have a pair of Mary Jane stilettos to wear with the dress, and mesh tights too. So please don't make me go shoe shopping."

"No its fine, I was just wondering if you- wait… mesh tights?"

"They are rather nice looking with the shoes," I said quickly just trying to get her to forget about the one thing in the sentence she didn't like the sound of, "I do have a cobweb print one too if that one would work better."

"Oh no, no mesh…mesh is f-fine! Did you talk to Chester?"

"Yeah were going to together, I mean it is just a dance right?"

"Oohh you're going on a date!"

"A d-date! No it's just-"

"Rule number 3 of the girl code! Every date is official whether the boy knows it, or in this case you know it or not!"

"Oh," was all I could come up with at the time, when Ellie brought up this so called "girl code" there was no arguing with her. To her this code was as real and enforceable as the law.

I couldn't care less the only thing on my mind was a certain blonde with freckles and braces who had happened to have well kissed me earlier. I was getting dizzy just thinking about it as the spot where his lips had touched me started to tingle.

"What are you thinking about," Ellie pried poking me in the shoulder.

"Nothing…just the kiss," I mumbled without thinking.

Oh shit don't tell me I just said that.

I looked over at her face which was bright with pride.

Oh I did.

"It was only on the cheek," I explained biting my bottom lip and keeping my head down once more.

"Don't feel bad that's great!"

"I don't feel bad."

I'm just scared as hell.

And yeah that's chapter 6, I hope it was okay, this one seemed a bit lengthy but I wanted to get in some friend ship scenes so people could see Reiquen and Ellie's friend ship fro what it was and how its developed from that scene in the nurses office. And if any of you guys think its too soon for Reiquen and Chester I don't know Chester seems like a kid who would like someone quickly and Reiquen its her first crush so she is very unsure of everything. Please review, I really like critique, this story means a lot to me and my co-writer but we really need reviews and criticism in order to keep the ideas flowing. So with that said I bid you departure!
