I apologize for this chapter being short as well.

I'm getting to the good stuff, promise.

Might not be an update tonight- family is over. Maybe tomorrow morning.

I'll do review time then, (:

Also, can you give me some flavors? I need some ones Lisi hasn't used yet for Glossip Girl. Thanks!


BRIARWOOD ACADEMY

ON THE SIDEWALK

3:23 P.M.

September 4th

Claire and Allie approached the Briarwood grounds gracefully, knowing that their outfits would catch the eye of any guy, young and old.

As they walked, Claire's gold bangles sashayed around her wrist and her Multi Coin Chain Necklace from Urban Outfitters clanged against her skin. Her Coach Sunglasses rested on her delicate nose, shielding her eyes from the glare. A pink Bubble Hem Dress from Marc by Marc Jacobs rested on her thigh and floated every time a light breeze blew. Her hair was curled slightly and held into a messy bun, showing off her Chanel gold earrings. A pair of light pink and gold roller skates hung off her shoulders, banging into her back.

"Aren't you a little dressed up for skating?" Allie asked.

"No," Claire said with a grin.

The blonde eyed her friends outfit, nodding in approval.

Allie-Rose wore a baggy long sleeved beige-with-red-stripes shirt and accessorized it with a silver LOVE ring and silver bangles. Covering her eyes were a pair similar to Claire's sunglasses, however these were beigeish-white. Her nails shined with red polish and a white French-tip and her red Louis Vuitton clutch hung from her hand against her jean short-shorts. On her feet sat a pair of brown-and-red sandals, but those would be replaced with duo of black and red roller skates.

"When does school get out?" Claire said, placing a hand on Allie's arm.

"Um… Same time OCD does, I think."

Claire nodded and the two girls stood over by the gray bike racks, touching shoulders.

Suddenly the two giant oak doors burst open and so many cute guys rushed out, punching their buddies, smiling and laughing.

A boy with black hair and one blue and one green eye stopped in front of them, punching his equally hot friend in the shoulder.

"Oh. Em. Gee." Claire whispered in Allie's ear, and she smile-giggled in agreement.

"Hey," The black-haired-guy's friend smiled, nodding in her direction. "I'm Derrick Harrington." He shook his butt and his shaggy blonde hair shifted slightly as a gust of warm wind blew. His large eyes shined with playfulness as he danced around.

"And hey," The black-haired-boy added. "My name is Cameron Fisher, but yeah, just call me Cam. Please." He stuck a hand out for her to shake and she discreetly wiped her palm on Addie's shirt, then placed it in his hand.

"Hey, I'm Claire Lyons."

"Oh, I know," Cam said, but didn't elaborate.

The silence filled the space and Allie quickly jumped to Claire's rescue. "Where's um, Chris and Kemp?"

"Oh, um, Kemp has tutoring… and Chris got detention. He said we should just go."

Allie's eyes panicked as she searched for an excuse to wait for him, and this time Claire came to her rescue.

"Well," she teased, "that wouldn't be very fair to the poor boy now would it? I vote we wait."

"Me, too!" Derrick cried, finally rejoining their circle.

"Well, I don't want to be outnumbered, so I vote we stay too." Allie said calmly, thanking Claire with her eyes.

"Alright," Cam nodded.

Claire lifted her sunglasses and Derrick's mouth dropped open at her eyes, sparkling in the sun. Cam nudged him and he snapped it shut, but his eyes still said "OMG!"

Claire reglossed with the newest Glossip Girl flavor, Starbucks Mocha when the smell finally awakened her thirst.

"Can we go to Starbucks?" she begged. "Please please please?"

The two boys looked at each other and shrugged. "Sure. There's one right down the street, I think. I'll call my brother so he can pick up Chris and then drive us to the park."

The quad set off on the street, guy's feet dragging and girl's clacking on the pavement.

Many of the boys still on Briarwood grounds paused and stared at Cam and Derrick in envy, wishing they could hang out with such awesome girls.
