Author's note: Hey guys! Thanks for all your support with everything! I really appreciate it! Thanks for all the advice that came from the last chapter as well! Again, I really appreciate it. In case you guys were wondering, I sewed my friend a Degrassi sweater; the new ones that come with the uniforms. It was pretty good- I must admit. That was my secret Santa gift. Anyways, this is the last chapter, and then I will post alternate endings for chapter nine. I think people were pretty satisfied with it though. I'm not going to write another chapter because 1 person said so. Maybe 3 or 4 people have to suggest it for me to write it. Enjoy
Disclaimer: I do not own Degrassi.
March 15th 12:43 p.m.
"Ready?" Alli asked, crouching in the abandoned girl's bathroom with Clare behind her.
Adam, Eli, and Drew were behind Clare, nodding their heads. Drew had his camera with him, ready to record everything and anything. Clare and Eli both had the papers in their hands. Adam had his cell phone. He had Verizon, so he had excellent service in the girls' bathroom compared to Alli, who had trouble with her AT&T service.
Clare had a pencil in her hair, and she glanced at her silver watch occasionally.
"Clare, we are doing it at 1:06. A perfectly random time to pull this kind of thing. Calm down, we have loads of time to plan and execute." Eli soothed Clare's first-timer nerves.
If anything, Clare wanted to pull this prank to get a better reputation of the Edwards girls, considering Vegas Night, and after Darcy causing lots of drama after getting raped.
Clare felt incredibly guilty however; she trembled just at the mere thought of another detention. She was overcome by the fear of not only having Holly J crush her, but she was plagued by the fear that she could just ruin somebody's life. It wasn't just temporary, but Holly J would have a haunting memory the rest of her life after this. The embarrassment would be unbearable, and she was unsure if this was the right way to go.
Can't we just talk about it? Clare thought, unsure of herself still.
It was all staged somewhat perfectly. They had all gotten out of class due to Clare "Going to the bathroom", Alli forging a note that she had a little appointment and would be back to school in an hour. In that hour, she got all the materials, and had lunch at The Dot. Eli lied and said he had detention to go to with Mr. Simpson about the dress code. He told the lie during first period to an unsuspecting Mrs. Dawes. Adam got out because he lied and said he had some family issues, and was going to "talk to a counselor", and Drew got out when he said that there was emergency wrestling meet, and that the club had to meet at 12:30 to discuss strategies against rival school, Bardell.
Everybody believed them, and it was just a matter of time before the bell rang to signal Holly J's downfall. They could all hardly wait.
Revenge is sweet, apologies bitter, and hope is disappointment in disguise.
"G-guys, are we sure we should do this? I mean, what if she has changed?"
"Please, Clare, she's the same dragon lady that everybody wants dead. We know all of this from last year. She hasn't changed. I don't think she ever will. She can attempt to get better, but I think that Holly J is so evil that she won't even attempt. Do I have to remind you about the whole crushing poor Sav's heart? It was devastating seeing him cry and mope around everywhere. He wouldn't even get out of bed! It was heartbreaking really. He wouldn't stop playing his guitar. It was torture for the rest of us too. He said Holly J cheated on him, and the fact that you're questioning this is kind of a slap in the face. If you're too chicken-"
"I. Am. Not. Chicken." Clare said through gritted pearly-white teeth.
"Then prove it!" Alli whisper-yelled. "Do it for me, for Sav, for Darcy, for Declan for Pet's sake!"
"Who's Pete? Someone I should be concerned about?" Drew said while cracking his knuckles and looked at Alli square in the eye.
"No! Jeez, Drew!" Adam said, smacking his brother. "Are you that stupid?"
"That was hurtful." Drew said, challenging Adam by looking him in the eye.
"Guys, grow up." Eli said, shuffling the papers in his hands awkwardly.
"I don't have anything against Holly J," Eli said, shrugging. "But if she hurt my girl, then she's going down." He put a comforting arm around Clare, both of them grinning ear-to-ear.
"See, Clare? Even Eli is willing to put Holly J in her place." Alli said, sitting the door.
"Whatever." Clare answered happily. She sighed and was perfectly happy sitting on a cold, dirty bathroom floor, back pressed against an uncomfortable white-bricked wall. Her spine felt out of alignment, her hands shaky, and hair a little tousled, but she was happy with Eli's protective arm against her.
"Clare, what time is it?" Adam asked, trying to look over Eli's arm to glance at Clare's watch.
She lifted her wrist towards her face until it was 4 inches away. "It's 12:49."
"Really? Time flies by when you debate with Clare!" Drew exclaimed, receiving a glare from Clare.
"Does everybody remember what to do?" Alli said quickly. She used her hand to brush the bangs out of her face. Alli brought her head out of the bathroom door. She whispered, "The coast is clear, go Clare, go!" She pointed repeatedly out the door.
Clare ran out, scurrying to the sophomore and freshman hallways all over the school. She ran fast and unseen to all the hallways, and made it back within 10 minutes. Eli soon followed, making it back at the same time as Clare; they walked back to the bathroom together to meet Alli, Drew, and Adam, bored on the floor. All Adam and Drew had to do was wait for the right time, and Alli just had to wait and hope for the best.
"Guys, countdown, the bell's gonna ring in 15 seconds." Clare whispered. As she said these words, everybody snapped to life, straightening slouched positions, regaining breath, and standing instead of sitting. They brushed lint of clothes, and got ready. Alli, holding her bullhorn, was more than ready to declare war on Holly J.
"Count down with me." Clare said.
"Five, four, three, two, one!" And on cue, and to Holly J's despair, the bell rang.
"Go, go, go!" Alli commanded like a sergeant with solders on a mission.
They all exited the bathroom very slyly, and walked towards the cafeteria. They marveled at all the havoc around. When they walked into the cafeteria, they saw Holly j looking at one of the flyers on the bulletin board that Clare had put on there.
"What!" Holly J exclaimed, clearly mortified. Her facial expression was indescribable, but it was still a look of pure horror.
The crew walked passed them, and sat at an untouched table, trying their best to be unnoticed. It wasn't that hard since everybody was paying attention to the papers on the ground. People were snickering and snickering, whispering and pointing to Holly J. She turned to face everybody, and acted as if this didn't affect her. This had happened to her before, and she was determined not to run out like before. She knew people hated her, but when everybody told you to your face at the same time, over and over again, it was almost unbearable.
Drew was recording her reaction, her face priceless.
Adam pulled out his phone, and dialed her number. He typically talked in his guy voice, but he decided to talk like a girl. This way, his voice wouldn't be recognized, and nobody would ever know that it was him. He clicked star then 6 and 7 on his phone and dialed Holly J's mom's number.
Yes, Adam, Eli, Drew, Clare, and Alli were pulling a Mean-Girls prank.
They would put her fake clinic pregnancy and STD tests all over, so she would be single forever, and everybody would think of her as a whore. Sadly, for Holly J, she was about to get a taste of her own medicine.
Adam's phone rang a couple times before she answered. "Hello, this is the Sinclair residence."
Adam was giggling, but he bit his tongue and continued. "Hello, this is Amy from the health clinic; may I talk to Susan Sinclair?"
"This is she" Mrs. Sinclair said hesitantly.
"We have your daughter's test results back, and we would like to schedule another appointment. I'm sorry to say, but your daughter is diagnosed with Chlamydia and Herpes. Apparently, the first man that she slept with gave her Chlamydia, and the fourth man that she slept with gave her. We have a list of prescription medication that we can give her, but we need a parent or guardian's permission to do so."
"Phil! Phil! No, this can't be happening! Not Holly J, no, not her!" After that, they heard a thud and crash of the phone.
"Susan? Susan, Oh my gosh! Susan, hold on, I'm calling 911 right now!" Mr. Sinclair cooed to his wife. She probably fainted. She would be fine though, when she realizes that it was a cruel prank.
The phone was hung up by Adam, and everybody burst into uncontrollable laughter, clutching their stomachs and slapping their thighs. Even Clare joined in on the ridiculous laughter. She was incredibly guilty, but she figured that life was too short for not enjoying it.
Holly J's phone rang, and with each passing minute, the rosy natural blush on her cheeks turned paler and paler. She grabbed onto a table for support, and she was shaking her head in denial, and screaming things into the phone. Everybody snickered at her, and her blue-green eyes clouded with tears. She couldn't fell her legs, so her worst nightmare had come true. She was literally stuck in the cafeteria while people laughed at her.
All strutted her way over to Holly J, who had just hung up the phone. Tears of embarrassment were openly spilling over her cheeks, and they rolled down in brown-mascara stained streams.
"Déjà vu, huh Holly?" Alli spat out, enjoying every second of Holly J's downfall.
"It's Holly fucking J." Holly J sneered, as her eyes scanned Alli evilly.
Alli pulled out the bullhorn out from behind her back, and Holly J's eyes widened at the realization of what Alli was going to do next.
"This was all you, wasn't it?" Holly J whispered.
"Believe it." Alli said. "This Is payback for calling the cops on me, breaking me and Johnny up, getting me teased, being mean to Darcy, and Clare, being so freaking full of yourself, being mean to your own friends, faking a pregnancy to freak out my brother, dating my brother then harshly breaking up, and for being one of the meanest people the world has ever seen."
"What does any of this have to do with Darcy?" Holly J asked, stalling.
"What? Do you think I'm the only one in on this? See that table over there?" Alli gestured. Eli, Adam, Drew, and Clare waved, smiling at Holly J. Holly J knew right then that they were up to this, and that she would never come back to Degrassi ever again.
"Face it Holly, you've had this coming for you for a loooong time." Alli winked and started to chant.
"I hate Holly J, I hate Holly J, I hate Holly J, I hate Holly J…"
Everybody joined in, and Holly j couldn't take it anymore, she ran out of the cafeteria, and everybody cheered within a matter of 30 seconds.
Alli returned to the table, and they re-watched Drew's footage over and over. They laughed harder and harder each time.
"Oh that was too funny." Drew laughed.
"Agreed," Adam said.
"I guess you could say that this is happily ever after. We all got what we wanted, we found out everything about you two, and we got revenge on Hooly." Eli said.
Clare and Alli looked at each other, and Eli, Drew, and Adam scrunched up their eyebrows in suspicion. You did tell us everything right?" They asked.
"Uhhhhhhh…there was that one time…"
"Vague about freshman year, aren't we girls?"
The End.
Hope you guys liked it.
