Crazy Ponnie
Ugh I'm so so sorry everyone! I've been so terrible with updates if just been so busy, I'm so sorry and I'm honestly going to try and get back into my one chapter a week routine! So yeah new chapter at last!
And also btw there is no way it's possible to shave someone's head completely and not wake them up so since I just really don't see how that could happen she'll just cut her hair shorter!
Enjoy!

Cat's POV
As the credits roll, signalling the end of the movie I finally tear my gaze away from the screen and catch sight of Jade lying spread eagle on the couch, breathing deeply, seemingly fast asleep. Her long black hair with purple tips cascades across of her face as she gives a low sigh, rolling onto her stomach and dropping her arm over the side of the couch. Quietly I reach for the remote and switch off the television, with a click the light flickers out leaving just the dim lamp too light the room, leaning to the side I grab one of my pink fluffy pillows and launch it at her. Jade barely stirs, simply rolls over with a groan and reaches for the pillow and throws it back, hitting me straight in the face. "Owy" I cry, falling backwards and holding my head. From where I lay on the floor I could hear Jade shift her weigh and prop herself up onto her elbows turning to her I watch her roll her stormy blue eyes and amusement coats her voice as she snaps.
"Don't be a wuss, that didn't hurt" I frown slightly and rub my forehead as Jade rolls her eyes once again, swinging her legs over the side of the couch and pulling herself into a sitting position as I sit up, crossing my legs beneath me. "Now that it's over can we go to sleep?" Jade pleads, blinking sleepily and running a hand through her ruffled hair, I shake my head, smiling innocently, Jade always wants to go to sleep at sleepovers, and it's no fun. "Fine, what do you want to do know?" she asks, yawning. I shrug, looking over my shoulder at the stack of DVD's I'd chosen for us to watch, but Jade had said no to all of them except Titanic, she only likes the end, when everyone dies and she missed it since she fell asleep. Jade follows my gaze to the stack with a wary one of her own.
"They're not that bad" I complain, earning a scowl from Jade and a disbelieving raise of her eyebrow "oh, oh, I have an idea" I grin, jumping to my feet, I run out of my living room, pausing for a second in the doorway "wait" I command pointing at Jade. I run up the stairs, pushing past my brother as he comes down the stairs, clutching a plant pot filled with mayonnaise and a light bulb when I get up to my room I dig through the draws in my dresser until I come across a small box. Pulling the box out of the draw and brushing off the thin layer of dust that had built up I head back downstairs, ignoring the thick smell of smoke coming from Frankie's room, and skip back into the living room. Jade had said she wanted to get her eyebrows done earlier but I had forgotten until now, my nana gave me an eyebrow waxing kit for Christmas, which was ages and ages ago and I haven't had a chance to use it. When I enter the living room, Jade's turned the television back on and is flicking absentmindedly through the TV guide, not really pausing on anything for longer than a minute.
"What's that?" she wonders as she turns away from the screen and stares at the box in my hands, raising an eyebrow curiously, I toss her the box and she leans forward to catch it. After reading the label she looks up at me and snaps, "Are you suggesting something?"
I roll my eyes and giggle "you were the one who mentioned it before but I only just remembered, it's ok if you don't want too" I shrug taking the box off of her and jumping onto the couch to sit beside her. Jade yanks her feet out from underneath me as I accidently land on top of them and snatches the box back, carefully reading the paragraph on the side, the warning. Seeming to sum up whether she can trust me with the wax. I frown since she has to think about it but then grin as she tosses the box back and nods
"Sure" she pauses, her gaze hardening "but if you do something wrong…" she leaves the threat open, she told me she likes to do that since if it happens she can get creative with revenge, I gulp and nod firmly. Clutching the box I carefully read the instructions, right, I've got this. Jade leans back into the cushions, getting comfortable and watches me expectantly, making sure I read through the instructions, I gulp again as I'm reminded of her threat. "You know what, it doesn't…" Jade begins but I cut her off.
"No, no its ok I've got this" I assure her and she nods once again, still slightly uncertain as she closes her eyes , I follow the instructions, pftt this is easy. As I pull back the waxing strips Jade gives a low hiss of pain and brings her hand to her forehead. As she slowly moves her hand away my eyes widen in horror and I look down at the strips in my hand then back up at Jade, maybe she won't notice I think hopefully. As she sits up straighter she runs a hand over where her eyebrows should be and her sharp eyes narrow, moving to my face which I try to compose, letting the strips float to the floor and out of her line of vision. "hehe done" I state, forcing a smile, my eyes bright with uncertainty, maybe I can knock her out and draw them on, then she'll never know, I dismiss that thought almost instantly as she glares suspiciously at me.
"Pass me a mirror Cat" she snaps and the smile falls off of my face
"Why do you need the mirror? You look great" I try to laugh but I wince at how high pitched my voice is, Jade glares poisonously at me, her expression clear 'what have you done' I give a low whimper "one second" and rise to my feet, before bolting out of the room and up the stairs. I go into my room and gingerly grab the hand mirror from my desk as though it might burn me, as I turn to leave I spot my notepad and pen and quickly scribble a note 'if you find me dead. Jade did it.' Then with a deep breath I slowly make my way downstairs, my heart pounding, Jade's so gonna kill me. When I return to the living room Jade's still sitting in the same position, rigidly straight with her hand held to her bare forehead and stormy eyes flashing dangerously as she searches me face for any expression of fear. Which I'm pretty sure was the only expression on my face, I would have probably found it funny if it was just makeup or something but it wasn't, and I was seconds away from a very painful death via my best friend. Jade slowly holds out her hand for the mirror and I carefully hand it to her, taking a cautious step back, I watch guiltily as Jade's expression changes from shock to horror to fear and finally to unbridled anger as she turns to me.
"What. Did. You. Do?" she snarled, emphasising every word as she stared back into the mirror, her grip tightening around the handle, threatening to snap the delicate plastic, I stay quiet, giving her a chance to calm down before I talk, if she calms down that is.
"Well I didn't mean too, I read the instructions and I thought I'd done it right, I'm so sorry Jadey please forgive me" I cry, real tears threatening to fall, I honestly didn't mean too. Jade doesn't seem to accept my apology as she screams, humiliation as well as fury coating her raised voice.
"I look like a fricken idiot." She climbs roughly to her feet letting the mirror clatter to the floor; I take a frightened stepped back, as she barges past me, grabbing her bag from the bottom of the stairs and swinging it over her shoulder before pulling on her black combat boots. I rush out after her just as she opens the door and she pauses, cold wind blowing in from behind her thanks to the open door and I shiver slightly in my thin pyjamas "you better watch yourself Cat" she threatens darkly before spinning on her heel and slamming the door behind. I gulp as I'm left in my dark hallway alone. That was the worst sleepover ever. Since I don't have anything to do I make my way upstairs to my room , running over to my window and slamming it shut, who knows when Jade will strike, I don't want her to catch me while I'm sleeping. As I try to sleep my active mind runs through all the things my friend's done too people in revenge, and shudder, she was so, so mad, what if she hates me like she hates Tori? Finally I fall into an uneasy sleep and wake, unscathed, to the sound of my alarm; I blearily reach for my phone and turn it off, scrolling wearily through my messages but there's nothing interesting, just a text from Sinjin saying 'I love you babe' which I quickly deleted, and one from Sophie, a girl I used to know from middle school asking me how I was. I told her I was fine, she wouldn't really understand if I told her that I feared for my life since I accidently waxed the meanest girl in schools eyebrows completely off. I pull myself out of bed and get dressed in one of my favourite dresses before tiptoeing downstairs, aware of the loud snores coming from my parents' bedroom. As I grab a bowl I see that Jade's left her bracelet on the counter, I grab it and put it in my bag, perhaps I can use it too bargain, the bracelet for my life. Returning to the kitchen I grab a box of cereal and pour it into the bowl, adding milk before making my way into the living room to eat as I do I notice something on the floor, realising what it is I pull up the strips, with Jade's eyebrows still attached, I grin, now I'll be able to stick them back on, right?
-Time skip-
As my brother's car swings into the car park of the asphalt, for once not speeding by the way, I'm so proud I step out, warily scanning the open space between the car and the school, searching for a certain raven-haired murderer to be. With her nowhere in sight I make a dash for the door, slowing down as I reach the entrance, not wanting to bump into anyone, still scanning around me I pull out my phone, typing out a quick 'I'm really sorry, but don't worry I have your eyebrows, maybe we can reattach them :)' and sending it to Jade…Seven times. I desperately hope that she's calmed down, at least a little bit; I mean she's had a night to sleep it off, oh maybe she's grown her eyebrows back, it doesn't take that long right? But as I glance down at my phone my hopes are dashed and I give a squeak of terror at what it reads on the screen;
To cat from Jade: YOU. ARE. DEAD.
I stuff my phone back into my bag and run like a pack of rabid donkeys are chasing me, not wanting to stay in one place for too long, since it would be a lot easier for Jade to find me. Spotting Andre and Beck I sprint over, they're big and strong and not terrified of Jade, they'll help me for sure. As I approach I latch onto Andre's shirt and scream
"You guys, you guys have either of you seen Jade?" As I receive negative responses from both I explain, my breath coming in short bursts due to my fear and my run. "She's trying to kill me" I steal glances around me, luckily from this spot I can see all the entrances, the drama hall, the main entrance and the stairs so if Jade comes I'll see her although I don't know if that'll help much. The only problem is there's nowhere to hide if she does come. I take a deep steadying breath, trying to calm down, Jade's a long distance runner thanks to her being forced into cross country when she was younger but she's no sprinter so If I can lose her quickly I'll be ok, maybe. She may not be that fast over short distances but I'm no athlete either and her legs are longer than mine. I break out of my thoughts as I hear Beck ask why, I hope he's coming up with a plan on how to save me because I'm like a sitting duck here, hehe sitting duck, that's a weird expression I'm not even sitting. But whether I'm a standing duck or not I love living, I don't want to die. "Well we were hanging out last night and she asked me to do her eyebrows" I recall when Andre cuts me off,
"Do what to them?" I give an exasperated sigh.
"Make them look neater and nicer, girls do that" I try to think about what it's like, oh like monkeys, how they groom each other all the time and eat each other's fleas, although without the fleas part because that would be really gross. "We groom each other like monkeys." There's silence and Beck looks confused, perhaps because I'm describing girl kind as being like a monkeys, well not looking like monkeys obviously. Although one time I saw this lady and she was so hairy but she was probably just a werewolf, but wait it wasn't the full moon, I guess she was just very hairy.
"So why is Jade trying to kill you?" he wonders, oh that was why he was confused, I wish he wouldn't question it, it doesn't matter, he just needs to figure out a way to save me I begin to impatiently explain what happened but pause, heart hammering as I hear a scream.
"Where is she?" I let out a high pitched scream of my own and roughly push past Beck and Andre, maybe she didn't see me I pray as I run for the drama hall "someone stop her" I hear Jade yell and her voice is much closer than before, I guess not. I run in circles, using people as shields and screaming constantly, hoping to attract someone's attention before Jade reaches me but most people are too scared to intervene and instead watch, looking at me with pity. The sound of Sinjin playing the saxophone meets my ears but I barely notice as I feel Jade closing in behind me as a run around Sinjin, I try not to listen as she screams at me, but then I spot Lane, perhaps I have a chance. Still squealing at the top of my voice I sprint towards him just as Jade pushes Sinjin out of the way and from the clatter I assume he dropped his instrument. I scream one last time and dodge behind the guidance councillor as Jade makes a grab for my bag. Please don't let me die.
Jade's POV
I feel strong hands clamp around my waist, holding me forcibly in place, if I were thinking normally perhaps I would think who the hell dared to grab me, or maybe I would just bring my elbow back into the persons stomach. But I wasn't thinking normally, I was beyond furious, my vision tinted red, as I scream and fight, watching Cat flee down the corridor. I was angry at first of course but as I had entered the school my anger had turned into cold fury as a fierce blush had crept into my pale cheeks due to the stares I was receiving from all angles as I entered the school. I could hear the sniggers, hidden behind hands and see the amusement in people's eyes and then I wanted to kill Cat. I vaguely hear someone yelling at me too stop but I don't listen, my narrowed eyes locked on Cat. As she runs behind me I struggle more fiercely, desperate to pursuit her, I haven't actually decided how I'm going to get my revenge but I will and then Cat will really be sorry. When I hear the voices of Beck and Andre my whole body seizes up and I become completely stiff, as if I haven't suffered enough embarrassment. Most people may not be bold enough to laugh in my face but they sure as hell have a good laugh behind my back, as I hear the words 'why are you so mad at Cat?' I take a deep steadying breath and clench my fist as I slowly turned around with a poisonous glare, daring them too laugh or look at me funny or move or react in anyway. I feel Lane release me and slowly step away and my rigid body tenses as I prepare to leap at Cat given half the opportunity.
"Don't. Say. A. Word" I spit, breathing deeply. There's a tense silence as I watch Andre and Beck, searching their faces for any expression but movement from behind them causes my head to snap round and my hard gaze locks onto Cat as she begins to edge backwards, almost afraid to turn her back on me. She pauses and meets my gaze for a second before turning and bolting up the stair, instantly I make to follow but Beck and Andre simultaneously step forward, Andre somewhat nervously, and each grab one of my arms, standing on each side of me. I yell and start to struggle once again as Cat disappears around the corner but it's no use so I bring my foot down on Beck's, hard. I smirk victoriously as he releases me, twisting my arm out of Andre's grasp I run for the stairs, elbowing some Random girl out of my way but before I even reach the steps Andre grabs me. Holding me back, I hear him yell something at Beck but I'm not really listening as I allow myself to relax with a low sigh, seeming to give up. A smirk lights my face as Andre's tensed grip loosens, idiot I think as I yank forward with all my strength and break free once again. This time reach the stairs and fly up at them, barely noticing the people that dive out of my way I can't help but feel frustrated as I'm caught for the second time as a strong hand grabs wraps around my thin wrist just as I reach the top step. The hand I recognise to be Beck's pulls me back and holds me to his chest, I can feel the whole room's gazes locked on me as I struggle furiously but I honestly don't care at the moment all I want to do is get hold of Cat. Suddenly something cold snaps shut around my wrist; I can't hold back a low yelp as it pinches my pale skin. "What the hell?" I yell as I look down at my hands, now connected by a gleaming silver pair of handcuffs, "where did you even…" I snap, trying desperately to pull my hands apart. I give up trying to escape as my wrists begin to hurt for my efforts and I instead turn slowly to Andre, the easiest to break "let me go or very bad things will happen to you" I snarl, fixing him with a fierce glare. Andre shakes his head defiantly but takes a nervous step back while Beck spins me around to face him so he can take a hold of the link between my wrists and uses it to pull my forward like some sort of slave or animal. I look down, knowing it's no use to struggle, and let my dark hair fall around my face, hiding my bare forehead and my cheeks, red with humiliation.
Cat's POV
I stiffly sit down alongside Robbie on an empty table in the asphalt and open my tub of strawberries, putting my water on the table; I have to nervously check behind me every few seconds to make sure I'm still safe. But then again I think if she spots me I'll probably hear her before I see her, Robbie seems anxious, as he asks me "what's wrong Cat? Why are you so nervous?"
I turn back to him and reply in a whisper. "Jade's trying to kill me" Robbie looks even more nervous and moves slightly away from me, not wanting to be involved if it's Jade that's scaring me, I quickly explain why but Robbie gets it no more than Beck and Andre did so I drop it with a shake of my head. Laughter erupts from another table and the sudden noise causes me to jerk upwards, spilling my water all over the table although luckily none got on my dress, when Robbie tells me to calm down I cast him an incredulous look how can he expect me to calm down? If he were in my place he would be hiding in the bathroom all day until Andre or Beck go and tell him the coasts clear after Jade's left for home, I know because it's happened before when he spilt milk on her new jacket last month. See boys are lucky, since they have a safe place to hide from Jade, I suppose I could lock myself in a stall in the girl's toilets but that has risks in itself, like… I look up, breaking out of my thoughts as someone calls my name, I scream as I spot Jade and rise quickly to my feet for a second time while Robbie edges even further away from me, not wanting to be caught in the cross-fire. But as I'm about to grab my bag and run I notice that she's not moving to attack me, her head's lowered as she stands stiffly beside Beck and Andre. I clap, they must have gotten her to forgive me, "yay you've forgiven me" I smile, skipping over to her but her head snaps up on hearing my voice and her glare is vicious. I shudder internally; if looks could kill I'd be six feet under.
Beck nudges her forward and turning her glare onto him she snaps "I haven't forgotten how to walk" Beck shrugs, ignoring her retort and leads her to the table, when she reluctantly sits down, I sit down as well, my eyes still warily fixed on her. That's when I notice the thin silver chain attached to two cuffs around her wrists, handcuffs, and I realise that's why she didn't attack me, Andre and Beck must have handcuffed her, I knew they would save me, and now I can eat lunch with my best friend without being stabbed to death. Beck leans down beside her and unclasps one of her hands for a second but before she can react he hooks it around the table and grabs her hand, holding it still as he reattaches them. Straightening up Beck pats his ex-girlfriends head, earning an enraged cry, and leaves with Andre too go get food, when they return Beck puts a salad and coffee in front of Jade before sitting down beside Andre who boldly sits beside Jade. She doesn't react to the presence of food or to Andre sitting warily beside her and instead she simply sits there glaring daggers at me from across the table, causing tension to wrap around the table as everyone sits in uncomfortable silence.
"I think you look nice with no eyebrows" Robbie assures her, breaking the silence but not exactly lightening the mood as it only succeeds in riling her further and Robbie quickly looks away, returning to his food as her gaze bores into him.
"Jade" I begin nervously and as soon as I speak I wince slightly as Jade returns her stormy eyes onto me, filled with loathing and fury I take a breath and continue. "I just wanted to say, I really appreciate you having lunch with us," I pause, turning to Andre and Beck "and thank you Andre and Beck for Handcuffing Jade to the table."
Jade's POV
As Cat thanks me my glare intensifies, this is too much and I give a cry of frustration, desperately pulling against my bounds until my wrists turn a bright red and Cat cautiously resurfaces from ducking under the table. I continue to struggle though, even if I can't hurt Cat at the moment I will not be tied down like a fricken animal, 'come and pet her, but be careful children she bites.' I strain against the cold metal, knowing it's useless I finally bring my hands down to my lap and continue glaring at Cat, cruelly enjoying her clear discomfort.
"I still don't get how this happened" Robbie states, staring at me the word that catches my attention is still, so Cat's been telling everyone, oh what an exciting story I bet that was. Hilarious. I can't believe she's been spreading it, ugh once I get these things off I'll kill her and then I'll resurrect her so that I can kill her again
"Uh Jade asked me to make her eyebrows look nice and I tried to wax them but when I took the wax strips off there was" ugh no need to remind me of my mistake, what the hell was I thinking to trust Cat with hot wax. That was possibly one of the most stupid things I've ever done and now I'm suffering for it. Cat pauses looking sorrowfully at me, imploring me to forgive her, I don't think so. "There was problem" she finishes, a problem? I think that's a bit of an understatement.
"My eyebrows are gone" I yell, vowing on my life to never again trust Cat.
"No, they're not, I told you, they're right here" Cat yells and leans down, pulling something out of her bag, when I see what it is I flinch, turning away in disgust I suppose she should get points for trying but that's just gross.
"You guys, hey everyone" oh great as if my day couldn't get any worse, wow Vega looks tired and awful today. "Special treat, I just found a new friend on a toilet" any friend of Vega's isn't a friend of mine, Andre and Cat are the only exceptions, plus they were my friends first. "She's fun and she likes sandwiches, say hey to Ponnie" Bonnie? I don't think I know any one called Bonnie, I look around for Bonnie but there's no one there.
"Ponnie?" Beck asks, wait so she's not called Bonnie?
"Who are you talking about?" Andre frowns and Tori looks behind her
"Ponnie, she was right behind me" Tori cries, ok I'm pretty sure I know everyone in this school at least in passing and I'm almost certain I would remember a name like Ponnie.
"Who's Bonnie?" Andre wonders, ok so her name is Bonnie, I'm really confused now. Wait actually no, I really don't care.
"Ponnie, with a P, Ponnie" Tori exclaims, god chill out, a smirk lights my face and I almost forget to be mad at Cat as I taunt
"What colour was her hair? Plonde?" I wonder as I lock eyes with Vega, silently daring her to mention my eyebrows are lack thereof, or the fact that I'm handcuffed to the table, especially my lack of eyebrows.
"Or Prunnette" Andre adds, laughing and I smile in satisfaction as the rest of the group soon join in, who knew Vega's presence could actually cheer me up after all, and also I'm pretty certain there isn't a Ponnie or even Bonnie in this school and the rest of the group seem to agree as they discuss Vega's new friend. My attention soon drifts as the conversation turns to some art project that I probably won't ever do. I reach for my food as Vega runs off, chasing after her imaginary friend and my bad mood soon returns at full force as I scowl darkly.
"I can't reach my coffee" Cat nudges it forward, staying cautiously out of my reach so I don't even bother trying to grab her and she leans back once again, letting out a sigh of relief I grab my coffee and take a sip, closing my eyes for a second I try to relax slightly as I enjoy my favourite drink, just the way I like it. Finally the bell rings and Beck moves over to me, releasing me but I don't even try to react once one of my hands is free, due to the hand still holding mine firmly to the table until Beck reattaches the cuff and helps me to my feet. I'd like to pull away and say 'I can do it myself' but the likelihood is that I couldn't and would just make an even bigger fool of myself by trying. Beck drags me over to Cat who gingerly takes hold of the link binding my hands together and stopping me from attacking her. I suppose I could push Cat away and run for it but then again I can barely walk, I never really appreciated how hard it was with my arms in front of me, it completely throws my balance which was never amazing but still. My focus is once again in the present as I see a flash of silver as Beck passes Cat the key to the handcuffs, and my mind jumps into high gear, formulating a plan on how to get these things off of me and then how to find and kill Cat. The main thing is to get Cat away from the others, "I need the toilet" I complain, looking expectantly at Cat, the redhead looks uncertain and she looks too Beck for instruction. I smirk "I promise I won't try anything."
Beck shrugs "we'll see you guys in class then" and he and Andre turn to leave, but Beck pauses sending me a cautionary glance, almost pleading and I simply wave as much as my restraints will let me before following after Cat in the opposite direction. As soon as we're out of ear shot I turn too Cat and smile innocently, although I'm not sure if she quite falls for it as her hazel eyes narrow suspiciously but also warily.
"Cat" I pause thinking through what I want to say, if I blow this I'm pretty much stuck with handcuffs for the rest of the day which would suck. "Please let me go" I start simply, frowning as Cat shakes her head "please, look, everyone's already laughing at me and I look even more ridiculous like this." I plead, and I have to hold back a grin as Cat begins to consider my request "I've almost forgiven you and if you let me go I'd forgive you completely" I assure her and I can see Cat playing with the key in her pocket as though thinking. "I promise I won't try to kill you" I assure her and she pulls the key out, I try not to snatch it out of her hand and instead twist my wrists to make it easier for her to insert the key into the little holes on the sides. As soon as I feel the cuffs loosen I slide them off with a low sigh of relief, dropping them on the floor and rubbing my wrists I turn too Cat who's smiling like normal that's until she spots my expression and takes a step back, with a yell a grab for Cat as she turns and flees down the corridor with a scream of 'you promised.'
Cat's POV
I can't believe Jade tricked me into letting her go, what was I thinking? But she did promise, I push open the door to Sikowitz class and let it slam shut behind me, Sikowitz looks around, startled as I scream, grabbing onto Beck's shoulders ,"ahh she's right behind me, please help me she's gonna kill me."
"What, did you just say that someone was going to" Sikowitz pauses then turns away disinterestedly "you kids can work it out yourselves" I let out a terrified sequel
"Come on Cat just watch the door, that way Jade can't sneak up on you" Andre suggests and I nod my head, my voice is sore from the screaming and slightly high pitched as I say
"Ok, I'll just stay right here and I'll watch the door" my breath comes hard and fast after my sprint and I move to stand slightly behind Beck so that when Jade comes she'll have to go through him first. I hear a scream and spin around to see Jade, just as she leaps through the open window, I react with a scream of my own and try to run but I feel her arms grab my waist, stopping me. I scream again, leaning into her and kicking out my legs in front of me, successfully unbalancing Jade and causing her to fall to the floor, dragging me down with her. Her strong grip loosens with the shock of the fall and I desperately try to crawl away until she grabs me pulling my backwards. I'm only slightly conscious of hands desperately trying to pull me away from Jade as she drags my too my feet, I cry out as someone stands on my foot, and I struggle more fiercely, grabbing onto Andre's shirt as he attempts to pull me away. I watch stricken with relief as Beck's hands snake around Jade's chest, lifting her off the floor and yanking her backwards, I cling more firmly to Andre as Jade points threateningly at me and spits "I'll get you."
"I don't want to be gotten" I whimper. Still glaring fiercely at me Jade is forced into her seat and I take mine as far away from her as possible as the rest of the class file in.
"All right weirdoes take your seats" Sikowitz snaps just as Tori enters
"Wait, where's Ponnie" Tori asks, looking behind her in the corner of my eyes I notice Jade bring her hand to her bare forehead as though she's got a headache, but then again that's just her normal reaction to Tori.
"Where's who?" Sikowitz ask raising his eyebrow, oh no not the Ponnie thing again. This day just gets worse, my best friend forever hates me and my best friend's gone crazy.
Jade's POV
My breathings heavy as I'm guided into my seat, not my usual one I notice disinterestedly, but my old seat that I used to sit in back when we were dating, I don't really think on it, knowing it's just so that Beck can keep close to me in case I go for Cat again. My theories proven as I look to the side, seeing Beck's eyes locked on me and his body tensed up as though expecting me to make another move. I have to be smarter instead of just trying to cause damage, I need to plan, well I sort of planned to hold her still and cut her hair off. My fingers drift absentmindedly to the scissors at my belt and I don't entirely dismiss the idea although slightly calmer now I'm not sure if even I'm mean enough to do that. As Vega enters, going on about her imaginary friend again I bring up my hand to my head closing my eyes for a second, I look up as I hear Tori exclaim "Ponnie, one of your students , she sits in the back with you guys right?" the kids at the back all shrug in response to her question. I never really noticed but they do shrug a lot, let's face it Ponnie doesn't exist and Vega's finally lost it, we all knew it would happen eventually. "Oh come on, she's one of you" Vega cries, pointing at them, didn't anyone teach her it's rude to point; the serious expression on her face proves she's not messing around, this is just getting sad.
"Ok Tori, maybe you should sit down" Andre hints, at least someone agrees with me but then again, looking around it seems like most of the class share my opinion on Vega's mental state.
"There's no Ponnie in this class" I smirk, folding my arms across my chest
"But…But she told me, oh oh well if there's no Ponnie then how do I have Ponnie's bag pack?" Vega yells, turning on everyone. I narrow my eyes, almost certain that I've seen Jazz with that bag, I'm not entirely sure since I don't really speak to her that much since we don't have any classes together which is such as shame. If that is Jazz's bag then Vega will be dead, and I'm certainly not helping her.
"What's in Ponnie's bag pack?" Robbie asks, wait he believes her? I'm almost surprised until I remember it's Robbie and shrug it off, I tune out, debating with myself on whether to point out that it's Jazz's bag but since I'm not entirely sure I remain quiet. I turn my mind onto more pressing matters, brainstorming ideas on how to get back at Cat until see Vega holding up a doll, dressed exactly like her with the same colour hair and everything. I would have raised an eyebrow if I had any; ugh this is so annoying I express my more subtle emotions, curiosity, and amusement with my eyes and thus my eyebrows. I pay more attention; I've always wanted a voodoo doll 'I'm talking Tori and I'm evil' the doll declared as Vega tugged on the string.
"Why would you buy that doll?" Cat questions, slightly fearfully as though the doll creeped her out
"And where do I get one?" I add, staring at it eagerly
"I didn't buy it this is Ponnie's bag pack" Tori objects, or its Jazz's but either way that doll is Vega's, I lean back slightly in my chair, if she's gone insane as I'm pretty sure she has I mightn't want to taunt her as much as I usually do, I don't quiet fancy getting beaten to death with a Tori doll. Everyone mutters in disbelief
"There's no one called Ponnie in this school" I try to reason with a shrug
"It's true, no Ponnie" Sikowitz agrees. Tori gives a frustrated objection before turning and storming out of the room to 'find' Ponnie leaving the rest of us in slightly disturbed silence. Before we even have the chance to talk Vega bursts back into the room, screaming about how her locker had changed and now says 'make it rot' I raise my…. I'm not even going to finish that sentence, and roll my eyes as she grabs onto Andre's shirt and pulls him to his feet. I jump eagerly to my feet, curious to see proof that Vega's crazy or take a picture of her gratified locker. Beck seems to mistake my intentions as he grabs my wrist and pulls me back into my seat before I've even taken a step; I furiously yank my hand away and scowl until I perk up slightly as Vega yells
"It says make it rot, make it rot, come and see for yourselves" before bolting out of the room, with a smirk I rise to my feet, this time slower and I don't make to move to the door. When Beck follows he stays close, loosely gripping my jacket as we pass by Cat in the doorway Cat gives a fearful squeak as I brush past her but I don't pay attention, I can't be bothered fighting against like the whole group without a plan on what I'll do if I get a hold of her. "Come see it, it says make it rot" Vega shrieks as she runs through the hall, leading us to the locker room "and I know Ponnie did it" she arrives at her locker and I smirk as she points at it "see it says make it shine." She turns to her locker as though in disbelief "what?" We all turn to each other with a mixture of amusement and worry "I'm not crazy" Vega objects "I swear my locker said make it rot just a second ago and Ponnie did it" she pulls at her hair as she screams. "I know Ponnie did it."
We remain in stiff silence until Rex states "is it just me or is Tori a lot hotter now that she's crazy?" we all turn and slowly move away as Vega glares murderously at Rex, we all know it but Rex was the first one to say it. Turning back down the hall we leave the psycho standing dumbstruck by her locker. The rest of the day passes at a crawl with nothing interesting happening, I don't make any more attempts to get to Cat and she visibly relaxes, even going far enough to come up and speak to me. As long as Beck and Andre were standing protectively beside her but I don't really care anymore, of course I'm still going to get revenge obviously but I need to think it through more. As the bell rings signalling the end of the day I can't say I'm not relieved as I quickly pack away and swing my bag onto my shoulder and make my way into the car park.
As I pass by the locker room some random girl bumps into me, shouting "watch it Debbie" I spin around to give her a piece of my mind but she's gone, freak I think furiously, looking around before shaking my head and continuing out of the door. With a roll of my eyes I root through my bag and pull out my keys and as I'm about to step into my car a voice causes me to spin round, already frowning as I place a hand on my hip, watching wearily as Andre approaches. I'm so not in the mood for company.
"Hey" Andre greets cheerfully but I remain silent, not in the mood for small talk and waiting for him to get to the point "erm you kind asked if I wanted to go for coffee, I mean it's totally cool if you don't want too anymore" Andre smiles and I try to remember offering to do that but come up blank, probably when I ditched him when the platinum music award thing happened.
"Ugh when did I say that?" I complain, running my hand through my hair as I look at my car longingly pretty sure that my bed is calling me "can we go some other time?" I ask as I work to stifle a long yawn. Andre simply nods and waves with a cheerful goodbye before heading off. When I finally get home James' waiting for me and as soon as I step through the door he bursts into fits of giggles, I simply sigh, shoving to him out of the way as I make my way up the stairs, ignoring his latest eyebrow joke. I wouldn't be surprised if he's already spread the story around his whole school although I can't say that I care what a bunch of secondary schoolers thought of me. After finishing my chores as quickly as possible I head up to my room, locking the door behind me as I pull out my laptop. Not really set to do anything I simply stare absentmindedly at the screen, tilting my head to the side as my phone buzzed beside me, I push my laptop to the side and unlock my phone. I had to change the password because James somehow guessed it and no it was not scissors or something it was PeppaDizzy. No one at school would guess that so it was good enough, for some reason I really suck at making passwords, like I'm just awful, for years my password was password, that's like the most obvious one ever until Cat guessed it. I mean you can see how bad my passwords are if Cat and a seven year old can guess them and they're the only people who have tried to get on my phone. My new one is purple, I think black was a little too obvious I guess I like naming my passwords after unanimous objects or after random things. After seeing that the message is from Cat I toss my phone to the side, not even bothering to read it and tiring of sitting doing nothing I switch my laptop off and search for something else to do.
My eyes flutter open as pale sunlight filters through my bedroom window, at first I'm slightly confused as to why any light can get through my blinds until I feel a cool breeze ruffle the sheet sand realise that the window's open. Clenching my eyes shut I give a low moan as I retreat further under the cover, curling up into a ball to hide from the sudden cold I hear my mum's highly irritated voice telling me to get up but I ignore it, rolling over to face away from the source of the sound. Suddenly the sheets disappear and I'm left in my thin pyjamas as cold wind pours in through my window, it's way too cold to be spring I decide as I groan.
"Jade get up or you're going to be late…again" my mum snaps turning on the light as she leaves the room, I yawn and stretch reaching for my duvet and sighing as I realise she's chucked it on the floor. Thanks a lot mother I think as I reluctantly drag myself out of bed now I'm gonna be in a bad mood for at least the morning. I'm fine if my alarm wakes me up, which speaking of I must have forgotten to set, but if someone wakes me up I am just destined for a bad day or at least the people around me are, this theory is tried and proven by Cat. That reminds me, I'm tired of running around the school after Cat, I think I'll just cut her hair with my scissors, not all of it obviously but just enough to guarantee many bad hair days. I make my way over to my wardrobe and pull open the doors, standing there for a second before just grabbing a black dress, too lazy to match up pants and tee-shirts and jackets and stuff after just being woken up. Quickly washing my face and brushing my teeth I make my way downstairs almost tripping over a toy car of James' I swear he leaves his toys everywhere, there was a plastic aeroplane in the sink just yesterday. Grabbing a poptart I quickly check myself in the mirror, trying to spot any hairs growing back but frown as my forehead is as bare as it has been for the past few days. I wonder if I could make a fringe cover it, I try experimenting with my hair but soon give up; I quickly fix my hair before leaving for another day of school, hooray.
