Thanx for all your
reviews, you guys. Sorry it took me so long to get this chapter up but I
have school. You're probably thinking, why I'm going to school,
right? Well, I live in Australia and right now, it's winter and I still
have school. So you can make things better by reviewing :)

"Hey, Mimi!"
My heart hit my stomach at the sound
of that voice, but I swallowed hard and managed to compose myself before I
turned around. I knew, that even if it were just my insides freaking out,
Billy would be able to read my feelings on my face.
"Hey," I said. I put
on a blank expression- like the one I usually get when Izzy is trying to explain
the science of a computer.
"Listen, can I ask you kind of
a bizarre question?" He gripped his bag's shoulder strap with one
hand, shoved the other in the pocket of his jeans and leaned against the
wall. He was so good-looking, he could have been a tear-out page in Fourteen
magazine. Too bad he was such a ridiculously evil creep.
"I guess," I replied,
crossing my arms over my chest. I looked over his shoulder at the crowds
walking behind him, just to show that I didn't care to listen to what he had to
say. But he didn't seem to notice.
"How well do you know
Kitty?" he asked.
"What!" Now I
couldn't hide my irritation. Why was he asking me that? Was he
trying to rub my face in the fact that he'd moved on? Did he think I
cared?
He shrugged like we were talking
about the weather or something and looked me in the eye. "Well,
you're popular and you know everyone in this school, so I just thought-"
"Why would I bother to get to
know a brat like her?" I spat out. "I'm sorry but I can't help
you."
"All right.
Whatever," he said, shrugging again. He pushed himself away from the
wall and looked me up and down. I thought he was about to say something
else, but then he shook his head slightly and looked at the floor.
"Guess I'll see you around then," he said finally.
I glared at his back as he disappeared
into the crowd. And, suddenly, I realized I'd never actually hated anyone
before- until now.
