Chapter 25

CPOV

(Earlier that day in the arcade right beside Louis Vuitton)

Claire Lyons held on tight to the imaginary race car's stealing wheel, twisting and turning it wherever it had to go, making her palms sweaty. She was racing her boyfriend Cam Fisher, while her friends were at Louis Vuitton, splurging on the latest hand bag. She would of joined them-she was in kind of desperate need of a decent purse- but cam challenged her to a car race, and she just couldn't turn it down. Besides, there were so many more designer bags in New York City that were waiting for her. Claire's fire red car beat Cam's ice blue one by 2 seconds, unlike the last time when he beat her by ten seconds. In a way, Claire's life used to be like a race. The romantic race for Cam's heart, the challenging race for a spot in the Pretty Committee, and the race for Massie's friendship, the list just went on and on. But now Claire had that all, around fifty-thousand dollars, Cam Fisher -an A-list boyfriend on the soccer team-, a spot in the Pretty Committee, Massie's friendship, and everlasting popularity.

"Yes!" Claire's arms shot up in victory, for winning the race, and for winning her perfect life.

"I only let you win." Cam said." Cause' I felt bad for you when you lost against me." He poked her ribs and she giggled.

"You did nawt." She said, getting up and putting another gummy foot in her mouth. When they were alone earlier, Cam gave her a bag of red gummy feet, colorful sour keys and a mix CD that was titled, "New York with my favorite girl". She started to walk to the hit a mole booth when her bag vibrated one, two, three times. She looked at the display and it said it was a message from Massie.

Massie: Done in Louis. U better B out, we R coming soon.

Claire: ?

Massie: Just get out of the arcade in 5.

Claire: Kay.

Cam put his arms around Claire's waist from behind her and he whispered in her ear,

"You'd better not be texting your boyfriend."

Claire giggled, and was a little shocked at his words," Matter of fact I was talking to my second boyfriend, her name is Massie."

"Ha ha I thought you were serious for a second there."Cam turned her around with a twist of his hands and kissed her lips. Claire put her arms around the back of his neck, inhaling his signature scent Drakkar Noir. Their tongues met but were quickly interrupted by snickering and hollering, forcing Claire to pull out from the kiss and look around for the culprits. Josh Hotz, Dempsey Solomon, Dune Baxter and Derrington were standing behind Cam, but only in Claire's full view. She then remembered Massie's text and quickly told Cam.

"We have to be out in five."

"Says who?"

"Massie."

"Oh, you mean your highness."

Claire giggled and quickly kissed him on the cheek, gently unraveling her arms and grabbing his hand. They walked to where the snickering boys stood.

"Sheesh you love birds, get a room!" Derrington teased.

"You're just jealous because you don't have a girlfriend." Claire poked her tongue out at him playfully.

"Won't be long until I do." He stuck his tongue out and crossed his eyes. Everyone laughed and Claire checked her watch.

"Oh man, come on, "she pulled Cam's hand toward the door, "we have to go." They weaved through the different sections of the giant arcade. Thankfully they were on the first floor, or else it would have taken them 10 minutes to get down from the third floor.

"What are we doing?" Dempsey asked, catching up to them with his hands in his Volcom jeans.

"Meeting Massie out front." Claire answered, wondering if that made him happy. She glanced behind her and Dempsey was smiling to himself, and Dune punched him in the arm when he noticed his little smile. Derrington and Dune snickered, Dempsey 's cheeks turning red. They glass doors were finally visible, but TPC Jacob and Claire weren't there. Thank Gawd! They walked out and absorbed the hot sun, then turned around to find Massie and everyone else following behind her.

"Perf. Timing, let's go to Nike. I can nawt believe that I would be caught in there, but Kristen is in desperate need of cleats." Massie said, walking forward with her hair swinging from side to side, making it look like she was trying to show off its glossy perfection to the streets that were blessed with her presence. Claire wanted to puke, but held it in, deciding that it would be best not to disgust the so many people around her. It wasn't a very long walk, which made her happy because she could only stand so much of the scorching sun .Long ago she liked the hot sun because it reminded her of the old, who cares about what you are wearing life in Florida. But Westchester grew on to her, changing her perspective on the weather, and on some parts of her life. One example was her outlook on fashion and makeup, thanks to TPC. Massie had not only taught her how to use an eyelash curler, but also on how two types of red that looked exactly the same, were two completely different things. They approached the sports store with gratitude. It had a sign that read, "Nike Town", and from the outside, it looked like it rose up to about five floors. The tall glass showed the inside of the high building, colorful shoes and clothes out for New York to see.

NPOV

The store was huge! Five levels, probably a department store size for each one. Personally, this was not my kind of store, but since I was trying out for the soccer team, I guess it would be good to buy some soccer cleats. They were the only thing that Alice didn't supply me with in my humongous closet.
