Practice Football Field
Tuesday, September 25th
3:10 P.M.
Claire watched the soccer team dribble the ball down the field and shoot at Derrington as she fell back down to earth and into Alicia, Dylan, and Tiffany's arms.
She couldn't look away from him. His shirt was off, showing his perfectly sculptured six-pack. His hair looked extra blond in the sun and his smile was extra white and playful. Finally he looked over to her and winked, she blushed, making sure Cam wasn't watching, she smiled and waved shyly. Her heart felt light and warm, like the way it had during their secret make out session under the bleachers during lunch.
"Good, everybody get a drink and we'll practice it again!" Monica said walking toward her bag to get her phone.
"Hi Derrick!" Dylan yelled and waved. Claire watched as his smile disappeared and he waved back the way you do when somebody you don't like greets you from across the room.
"Is he mad at me, or do you just think he's just been acting a little weird?" Dylan asked Claire as they grabbed their water bottles.
"Maybe he's nervous about homecoming." Claire said shrugging, suddenly feeling guilty about sneaking around withDerrick. She was in love with Cam, but Derrick took her mind of Massie, and she needed her mind to be taken off of that backstabbing bitch.
"Probably. I am. I can't wait to show everybody how my ass looks in my dress!" Dylan said slapping her tiny butt. Claire couldn't help but feel that Dylan took the whole weight thing a little too far. She was super skinny now, and she barley ever ate anything, but there was no way that Dylan was anorexic… right?
"I'm sooonervous!" Claire said thinking about it. Being on homecoming court was an honor, but when you are forced to go in front of the whole school and dance with your best friend's boyfriend, who is also the guy you are falling for, it's not easy. There was only one thing about homecoming that she was looking forward to. The barn.
The barn was in the woods that the school owned, right behind it. It's basically the same thing as the bomb shelter at the middle school, only way more exclusive. You have to be on the homecoming court to be allowed to know where it was. About ten years ago the school found out about it, and they destroyed the barn, but the homecoming queen had it relocated in the woods and rebuilt where the school would neverbe able to find it. People who weren't on homecoming court have tried to find it, but nobody ever could. She was supposed to get the map texted to her at the pep assembly homecoming day at exactly 2:15, or at least that's what Britta told her.
"Back into formation!" Monica yelled as she hit the play button on the radio that blasted 3 by Britney Spears.

Café, table 32
Wednesday, September 26th
12:08 P.M.
"We should go camping this weekend, the warm weather is going to end soon." Natalie said as she watched Hayden, Derrick, and Josh throw french fries at Olivia Ryan, who was now declared the biggest whore in school. Monica showed Alicia Olivia's physical that she had submitted for cheer tryouts… it said that she already had crabs and has two more STDs, and nobody could resist telling everybody in the school who the new whore was.
"Do I need to remind you what happened last time we went camping?" Cayden asked rolling his eyes, and taking a sip from Claire's Arizona lemon iced tea.
"Ew, keep it." Claire said slidding it back towards him once he gave it back.
"What happened last time?" Kristen asked looking up from her Advanced Biology homework that she never had time to finish last night.
"We kind of got caught a little drunk." Liam said shrugging. Monica looked surprised that he was talking to a freshman… even that he was sitting with them was surprising.
"Who's brilliant idea was that?" Dempsey asked joining them throw fries at Olivia.
"Ayden's." The rest said at the same time. Claire watched as Liam smiled at Monica, but Monica quickly looked away, like she scared that he was trying to get her attention.
"Look at Massie!" Alicia suddenly said pointing over to table 12, where Massiewas sitting by herself, pushing her food around with a fork. Her eyes were bloodshot, like she had just been crying.
"Do you really think she wrote that note?" Claire asked fixing the cuffs of her navy buffalo plaid button down shirt from Hollister. Just because she was rich now, doesn't mean that she couldn't wear something she thought was cute. As Monica always says, "It only matters if it flatters". And apparently people were starting to catch on. The lower A-listersat table 20 were wearing designer cloths mixed with brands like A&F, Hollister, American Eagle, and American Apparel.
"Of course she did!" Alicia said quickly rolling her eyes, "She wanted that spot to make her more popular, she didn't care who she stepped on!"
"But look at her, if she didn't care who she stepped on, she wouldn't look so sad!" Claire said thinking it over in her head. None of it added up, Massie couldn't have done it.
"That's true, I heard her crying in the bathroom." Annie said before eating a bite of her pizza.
"She was probably crying because she knows she's not popular anymore." Alicia said trying to cover up the fact that she was panicking on the inside. She never thought Claire would get suspicious that Massie didn't do it.
"We'll be right back." Monica said grabbing Claire's arm and pulling her out of her chair.
"Where are we going?" Claire asked as Monica dragged her along.
"To table twelve." Was all she said. Claire looked up to see that Massie was still pushing her food around.
"Hi Massie." Monica said grabbing a chair.
"Um, Hi?" Massie finally said, looking up at Monica and Claire as they sat on bothsides of her, "Why are you sitting with me?"
"To get the truth." Monica said look serious while Claire watched the people nearby look at them.
"Did you really write that note?" Claire asked, not caring if the people around them were listening.
"No, I don't know who did it, but I would neverdo that to you!" Massie said looking straight into Claire's eyes. Claire looked from Massie's amber eyes to Monica's and nodded.
"Let's Go." Monica said getting up from the chair, Claire followed and they slowly started to walk back to the table until they realized Massie didn't follow them.
"You coming?" Claire asked over her shoulder. People around them dropped their food in amazement.
"I love you guys!" Massiesaid running from her chair, and hugging Monica and Claire, even if both of them were wearing plaid Hollister button downs. :)

Practice football field
Wednesday, September 26th
2:54 P.M.
"I believe this belongs to you." Monica said smiling, handing Massie her cheer leading uniform.
"Thanks." Massie said smiling down at it, she had missed it almost as much as her friends.
"We'll practice while you change, so hurry." Monica said pulling her long, glossy, and perfectly straightened hair into a high ponytail, and turned around to face the rest of the team. Massie looked at her own her and sighed, it was pathetic compared to Monica's.
"Monica!" Liam yelled from the fence that separated the practice football field from the soccer field.
"What?" She demanded just as she was about to tell the team to stretch.
"Come here." He said, leaning against the fence, with a playful smile on his face. Monica rolled her eyes and told everybody to stretch while she talked to him.
"What do you want?" She asked narrowing her eyes. She couldn't let herself fall for him again; all he was going to do was break her heart all over again.
"What, I can't say hello to my girlfriend?" He asked before leaning over the fence and kissing her. Did he really just do that?She thought about pushing him away, but decided to keep it going, they haven't showed any interest in each other in forever, and his lips were soooo soft!
"Yeaaaaaaaah Monica!" Megan cheered while she stretched her calf muscle.
"Getting some action!" Dylan yelled and a few boys from the soccer team whistled. She pushed him back and looked over to the tennis courts, where Nolan stood watching her. Shit!
"You want to go on a date tonight?" He asked not caring if Coach Peters was yelling at him to get his ass back there.
"Um…."
"Come on, I'll pick you up at eight, dinner, a walk on the boardwalk, whatever you want." He said smiling his perfect smile, his blue eyes sparkled in the sun, and his abs looked even more ah-mazing than they normally do. She just couldn't resist…
"Sure." She said before kissing him quickly and running back to the team. Maybe he has changed…
Monica joined the circle of girls that were in a circle on the ground stretching.
"Monica, Massie, Britta, and I were going to sneak into the security surveillance room to steal the tape of who delivered the note, want to come?" Claire asked as Massie sat on the ground next to her.
"Why do you care who delivered it?" Alicia asked getting a little freaked out, Why couldn't Claire just drop it?!
"Because whoever delivered it, wrote it." Massie said, oozing duh.
"Oh…" Was all she could say, she was soooo fucked! They were going to find out!
"Okay, get into formation." Monica said, standing up. She yelled out the steps over the music for the first part of the routine, but when it came to throwing them in the air, she stopped to see their formation.
Alicia could barley move her feet. She knew they were going to find out that she made the note, that she was trying to get rid of Claire and Massie, that she was that desperate! But she had to act like everything was okay.
Alicia held Claire's ankle as she was above in the air, yelling the cheer, Alicia, Dylan, and Tiffany helped give Claire some air, but Alicia accidently lost her balance, forcing Claire to also lose her balance, she tried to stay up, but she fell backwards instead. Claire tried to use her hands behind her to break the fall, but once she hit the ground she rolled over in pain, holding her right wrist.
Monica ran over to her and bent down as the rest of the team hovered over them, "Claire, are you okay?"
"No!" Claire said, tears rolled down her cheeks, "I think I broke my wrist!"
"Massie, go tell coach Peters to get his ass over here!" Monica said helping Claire get up and walk over to the bench.
Alicia looked down at her hand that was now shaking. She never meant to hurt her, it was a complete accident, or did she really mean to?
Monica turned around from Claire and glared right into her eyes... she was sooo dead! "TIFFANY! HOW COULD YOU DROP HER!"
Thank Gawd! Alicia thought, maybe everything was going to be okay.
"I didn't drop her!" Tiffany yelled, pushing Alicia out of the way, storming over to Monica.
"Oh, you mean like how you "didn't" have sex with Mr. Vinyl?!" Monica shouted, making air quotesaround didn't. Everybody laughed since the whole school knew that Tiffany had sex with her chemistry teacher last year in the supply closet. Tiffany's mouth dropped, and Monica smiled in victory.
"Take your fugly sorry ass home, Tiffany!" Kiki Smith yelled and high-fived Mikayla Splendor, Tiffany stormed off, pushing a girl out of her way while she walked into the locker room.
"Turn your uniform in before you leave!" Monica yelled, but without stopping and turning around, Tiffany flipped her off. Monica turned her back away, relived knowing she was done with Tiffany, for good.
Will Alicia get caught? Is Tiffany plotting revenge? You know it! I need 50reviews for me to continue!
