It was the middle of summer. The air was hot and sweaty. The populars came walking into the cafeteria. Trish-looking as radiant as ever-gave a fake smile to Stacy. Stacy returned the smile-just as fakely and Trish walked off. Then over came Randy. He looked at Lita and Christy. He shooed them away and placed his tray next to Stacy. "I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings with the Van Gogh comment," he said sweetly," I'm sorry that Trish is so mean sometimes. It is just her nature and if Trish wasn't mean this world wouldn't be...normal"
Stacy laughed and smiled.

"Well. Lets not tell anyone about our little chit chat," said Randy quietly;" I don't want this to ruin my reputation.
"YOUR reputation," said Stacy," You are worried about your reputation. I am never noticed. You know it is the same with all you populars. You think everyone likes you but in fact hardly anyone does. Now you know what Mr Orton you can stuff that fake apology right up your bum"
Randy looked hurt and walked away.
"I don't care who you are-Mr Orton- and I don't care who you get to ruin my life because you are a big sad looser," Stacy shouted after Randy.

Lita and Christy came over.
"Whoah.You sure gave him a piece of your mind!" said Christy.
"Yup.You sure did!" said Lita laughing loudly. Stacy looked over at Randy he was sitting over at the table his can of cola in his hand and taking small glances at Stacy.
"Hold on," said Christy," I thought that you were...you know...Into Randy"
Stacy replied with," I am-but when something gets to me...boy does it get to me"
The all laughed. They walked out of the cafeteria and over to the art rooms where they sat and waited for their lesson. Randy came over to Stacy. She went red this time! "I'm not mad at you," Randy said. This time Lita and Christy shooed themselves away.
"You have a right to be mad. I have a right mouth on me when I get going," Stacy said laughing.
" I will forgive you. I am not like John, Torrie or Trish. The only reason I am dating her is because she is head cheerleader and I am Captain of the soccer team. I don't want to break that...tradition"
"Well, I think you should break the tradition. Why should you be unhappy and have a relationship with someone you don't like," Stacy said. Randy nodded. Stacy walked off smiling.
"I don't even like Trish," Randy muttered to himself.
