Chapter 10

Rachel tapped her foot in impatience. She really wanted into Planet Bang. She could have gone to the Dungeon, but she wanted to see Collin. Maybe seeing his face without a look of worry would relax her. With her philosophy, 'If you love two boys at once, there's gonna be trouble,' she realized she would eventually have to make a choice. Who did she really like? Tymmie, or Collin? She began to make a mental list of pro's and con's.

Collin was indeed attractive, sweet, and he seemed to like her. But he had a girlfriend; that he loved more than anyone, except for maybe his sister; and she hadn't known him that long. Tymmie on the other hand, had been her friend for a long time. He was attractive; sweet; and he obviously liked her. He didn't seem to really think of her as more than a friend, but- "Hey! Rachel!" She turned, and her famous smile began to grow.

The Bad Girls happily ran to her. Cassandra had an orange mini with shiny tints of purple and yellow, the straps on her platforms glistened from the ruby's. Yvonne wore neon green shorts, a fuzzy blue tube top, and short white boots. Kelly looked like a gypsy with her white off-the-shoulder tee, and purple shawl wrapped around her hips, plus gold sandals. "Nice ladies! But what's with the color all of a sudden?" Rachel questioned.

They all bent their heads to check their outfits in unison. "I didn't really mean to get colorful. I just threw it on." Yvonne explained, picking at the fuzzy's on her tube top. "I felt kinda shiny tonight." Cassandra said. Kelly snapped her fingers, then twirled her arm over her head, and rotated herself down. "I wanted to get gypsy." She pronounced the Y like an A.

"You certainly succeeded." Rachel said. "Why aren't you taking the short cut in?" Cassandra asked as she observed the line. "I don't think I should use telepathy, just in case he tries to get in. And as for turning into shadow, that's become strangely painful lately." Yvonne tilted her head. "Painful?" Rachel shrugged. "It just makes me ache." Kelly looked at each face. "What if one of us tried it?" She shrugged again.

"I don't know, but I don't want to try. You guys can go ahead if you want." she tried to suggest. "Nah. Oh! Look!" The line progressed inside when a man with a pretty big party got inside. They were examined, then they got in. The beat was thumping, and the kids were hanging. "What took you so long?" Said a sly voice. They turned to Stanton's grinning face. He was there with everyone else. The daughters, their boyfriends, the guys in the follower gang, even Chris. They all grinned at them.

Cassandra wrinkled her nose. "Sure, you can get in." She grinned, then snapped her fingers, and spun onto the floor. "But can you move?" She said with an exaggerated swing of her hips. "Woo!" Rachel yelled, then joined her, and watched as the others made their way out. Rachel arched her shoulders one at a time, then saw Collin spin Jimena with his index finger.

Seeing him so happy with the girl he loved didn't exactly appeal to her. She turned around to see Tymmie taking Kelly's hand. He pulled back, and spun her in. They swayed back and forth to the music, their faces cheerful and laughing. Rachel groaned, and closed her eyes. But as soon as she did, she regretted it. 'Hey. I see your having a good time.' She stopped dancing, squared her shoulders, then spoke, 'I was.' She backed off the floor.

'Alright. What is it?' 'Shift your eyes.' She looked down at her white tank top, and blue jeans, then examined her gloved hands. He wanted the incantation. 'I'm not taking it off.' A smile formed on her lips as she said, "Fine, then just let me show off your gorgeous body." Her eyes widened, and she found herself grabbing the table to keep herself from walking to the floor.

"What are doing?" She worriedly asked him. 'I said that I would make your lives as miserable as possible didn't I?' "No!" She yanked away from the table, and strode to the dance floor. She smiled at Collin, Michael, and Derek, and unwillingly began to dance with them. This is not me!' She said desperately. 'It is now.'

They gave her sweet smiles, and she tried to protest, but suddenly, her resistance died. 'Show them how hot you are Rachel.' She grinned, then changed her moves to sinuous slowness, and provocatively arched herself. The boys modestly smiled, and stopped. "Are you okay?" Derek asked. She grinned. "I'm fabulous." She said, and put a finger to his lips. She pushed into each mind, and shoved out Tianna, Vanessa, and that rotten little Jimena. (People are going to be so mad about the next chapter...)
