Chyna had been floating on air for about two weeks when she found herself absent mindedly walking through the hall where she saw Travis, her boyfriend, chatting with Lexi. And normally she didn't let Lexi get to her, but that body language said flirt and that meant that Lexi was up to something. Sure the majority of the time Lexi was harmless, but otherwise she was one that was not to be trusted. Chyna had wanted to march straight over there grab Travis' arm and head straight for anywhere that Lexi would not be. But then she knew she couldn't do that because then Travis would think she was jealous and she could not have him thinking that, even if she was.
It seemed that no matter what she did Lexi was right there trying to undermine it and frankly she was getting good and sick of it. Travis was pretty much the perfect boyfriend; being thoughtful and nice and even her dad had stopped threatening to taser him and had now started to invite him over more. Chyna knew that was in part so that he could keep an eye on them, but she also knew that was still a huge obstacle, even if he wouldn't stop muttering 'my baby' and 'stupid boy' and 'chastity belt' under his breath when he didn't think anyone was listening. It was both comical and embarrassing, but what else could she expect from her first real boyfriend. Olive always said that was a sign that he truly cared about her, but Chyna still thought that he was more than a tad overbearing.
Now as she went to the ANT room, huffingly throwing her book bag on the couch, she thought of an outlet for her jealousy. Currently she was thinking of a song titled 'Creep Faced Flirt' but she was thinking that was going too far. After all part of Chyna knew that Lexi was only up to no good because she felt intimidated by Chyna, and part of her felt sorry for Lexi, all that popularity came with a price, and that price was that she paid made her constantly insecure, manipulative and vindictive. Chyna could refuse to sink to her level.
"I just Lexi all over Travis, want me to send her a virus." The words came from Angus and Chyna was surprised to hear him say those words because he normally didn't pay her any attention, because she wasn't Olive or food. And it kind of made Chyna laugh, until she realized that Angus wasn't joking.
"No thanks, it's fine. I have nothing to worry about, Travis is not into Lexi." Which was true, he had told her in more detail about the Lexi he had grown up with, the cute girl next door who had once been his best friends. Of course after she had changed into the brat she was now he'd had no choice but to dump her. But Chyna was worried that if she ever showed her sweet side again she'd be dropped like the football when Cameron had tried out for the team.
"If you're sure, I mean it would take nothing and would at least frustrate her." Angus said, being unusually helpful, because this was his part of Operation 'Help Get Fletcher With Chyna By Showing Her How Awesome He and All the ANTs Are' also known as Hopeless by Angus. But he was doing his part, because if the ANTs were nice, and her true friends, then it would be easier for her to break up with Travis for Fletcher. This was all Fletcher's idea, both Angus and Olive thought it was far reaching. Angus thought that they should just wreck Travis' parents finances so much he has to drop out of school to help support his family. But Olive and Travis had vetoed that idea. Olive would not create an idea because of conflicting loyalties, she'd just preferred to be the inside man. Though Angus thought she was an awful inside man, because she would not wear any ear coms, wires, or mini cams.
"That's fine, that wouldn't keep her away from my boyfriend." Chyna said, thinking about writing 'Creep Faced Flirt' again, but decided to go and find Olive to talk. "See you later Angus, I need to talk to Olive."
"No need to leave, I'll go with you." Angus said rising from his chair and rushing right to Chyna's side. The boy was nothing but eager, at least that's what Chyna thought.
"Um… no thanks, it's kind of a girl talk thing. See you later, but thanks for everything." Chyna said giving him a smile before stepping out of the room.
As soon as she was out of the room she ran into Travis. And she soon forgot her worries, or about talking to Olive, as his bright smile beamed down at her.
"Hello beautiful. I have an invite for you." Travis said while lightly touching her arm, before taking her hand in his own.
"What's the invite to?" Chyna asked knowing that it wasn't time for basketball season to start, but she would be there for his JV games. Whatever it was she was excited, because all she wanted to do was spend time with him.
"Lexi's having another party this week and she invited both of us, specifically, no need to sneak in this time, and apparently her parents are co-hosting, so the police won't need to break up this party. " Travis said, with his smile still on his face but he added a week, however Chyna's face fell as she realized that the invite was to spend more time with that leech Lexi.
"Sounds fun." Chyna said somewhat sarcastically. Sure she wanted to spend time with her boyfriend but she really want that to be with a bunch of 'big' students.
"And I was thinking we'd grab something to eat together first." Travis said pausing to wait for Chyna's reply. Chyna personally had butterflies in her stomach, she hadn't been expecting him to turn this invite into date night. Chyna was really excited, because this was a real date, with a real person, not a robot, or even an ANT boy, but with her wonderful boyfriend Travis.
"I'd love to." Chyna said, her smile now matching that of her boyfriend, as they walked on down the hall.
Back in the ANT Room Angus was busy picking up an walkie talkie. "Come in Tortured Artist, come in Tortured Artist. This is Magic Fingers."
"This is Tortured Artist, what is it Magic Fingers?" Came the voice of Fletcher, who was just on the other side of the room.
"Camera 10 revealed that Golden Pipes was intercepted on her way to see Beautiful Brain. Audio in that quadrant revealed that Puke Face has asked her out on a real date."
"Gah!" Was the only sound heard in the ANT room as Fletcher began attacking a canvas with finger paint.
Note: I know, I know this took an eternity, but life has been ruining my muse, but now I have an update, and I doubt the next one will take as long. Please Review.
