"What did you do that for?" I screamed.
"What did we do?"
"Uhh..Tripped me over!" I yelled.
"No!" said Caroline.
"YES!" I started to cry.
"I saw the whole thing, Caroline! It was you!" said my friend Jane. I didn't notice her. She came behind me to hug me.
"Whaat? I DID IT?" asked Caroline as if she couldn't believe it.
I have to admit that she's a good actor. But the way she smirked at me, I'm SURE she did it. And there was also proof.
"No Duh!" said Jane.
I wiped my tears and screamed, "Shut up CAROLINE!"
Just than, our English teacher said, "Mary-Anne! Why-" than she saw my face, which was bloody. "My! Who on earth did this to you?"
"HER!" me and Jane screamed at the same time. We pointed at Caroline.
"Caroline?" asked Mrs. Splash. (my English teacher.)
"Yea." Said Jane. "Im witness. I watched it. Caroline tripped her!"
"Come with me to the office, girls." She said softly.
"But I didn't do it!" screamed Caroline.
"Yea she didn't." said one of her friends. I saw her smirk at Caroline. She wasn't a good actor.
"The principal will decide." Said Mrs. Splash sharply.
"Yes." Said Caroline.
I wiped my tears as we went inside. I grabbed a chair next to Jane.
"Thanks." I whispered.
After a while, we were called in.
The principal, or Mr. Kitery, smiled as we entered.
"Mary Anne! What happened?"
"Her." I said, nodding at Caroline.
"Ahh, have a seat."
"Yes sir." I said. I sniffled.
Jane sat next to me. Her friends sat next to jane in a row. Than Caroline. She glared at me and smirked. I wish had a camra.
"Okay. Now tell me the story."
"Well-" I began.
"Caroline didn't" said one of her friends.
"I'm Witness!" said Jane.
"Me-" said another one of her friends.
"ENOUGH! First Mary-Anne, than Jane, than Hannah, than Rachel, than Caroline. NO INTURRUPTIONS"
We nodded. I started,
"Well, I was walking down the hall. Than I tripped. I turned around and saw Caroline and Rachel and Hannah smirking. Well I felt my nose. It was bloody. I got up and asked them why she dd it. Jane even saw them trip me. She was watching."
"Okay. Jane."
"Well I was on my way to Math class when I saw Mary Anne walking. She didn't notice me. I was going to her to say hi. That's when I saw Caroline, my other friend, or so at that time. Well I was going to say hi to her, but she didn't see me. I saw her take out her foot, and Mary-Anne. Tripped. I my self saw them smirk."
"Okay. Hannah."
"We were coming from French class." She paused and smiled at Caroline. "On the way, we saw Mary-Anne. She tripped over a book that was on the floor."
"Okay…umm…Rachel."
"We were coming from French Class. I saw Mary-Anne. She was thinking, her eyes wide, and full of though. She didn't know where she was going and tripped." Than Rachel giggled.
"Excuse me…Caroline."
Caroline glared at Rachel and Hannah. They spoiled it, I thought.
"We were going to our next class. I saw Mary-Anne and wanted to say sorry because we had a fight. So I was coming when I saw a book on the floor. I was about to trip on it but Mary Anne tripped on it. I was behind her, so everyone thought it was me."
"Okay. Proof. Jane is a witness. Also Rachel and Hannah were giggling. Caroline, Hannah, and Rachel, stay, Mary Anne and Jane, you may leave."
We left. I sighed and went to my next class.

That afternoon, Stacey called me.
"Hey." She said.
"Hi Stace. What's up?"
"Oh A LOT!"
"Really? What?" I exclaimed.
"Mom's getting married on May 4th! Believe that!"
"Oh my gosh! Really?" I shouted.
"YES!"

"Oh my gosh! I can't believe it Stace!"

"Jillion!"
"Oh my gosh! ADORABLE!"
"I know right!"
"Anyways I have to go." Said Stacey.
"Okay Bye. Tell your mom congrats!"
"Okay. See you tomorrow!"
"Okay! Bye Stace!" I closed the phone.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day which was a baby-sitter club meeting, I went to the mall. I brought some clothes and everything. That's when I saw Caroline.
Luckily she didn't see me. I dashed out of there and went straight to the meeting.
"Hiiii MARY ANNE!" said Shannon.
"Lo'" said Clauidia.
"Hey!" said Abby.
Every one else said "Hiiiiii!" together.
I said "Hola!"
When everyone was there, Kristy said, "This meeting shall not-"
"COME TO ORDER!" we finished.
"I said not!" she said.
"Oh." Said Claudia. Than we laughed.
Just than the phone ringed.
"Baby-Sitter Club!" said Jessie. "Uh-Huh…okay. I'll call you back soon."
She put the phone down. "Monday, Pikes!"
Mallory rolled her eyes. I smiled.
I looked in the book. "Okay. Kristy, Claudia, Jessie, Stacey, Abby and Shannon."
"I don't want it!" said Shannon. "They never get in control with me! No offense Mal!"
"Trust me, I don't care!" said Mallory. She grinned.
"Okay..than who'll take it?" asked Abby.
"How about, Abby and Claudia. You guys haven't baby-sitted them in a while now." Said Stacey.
"Okay." They said. I wrote their names down. Abby called them back.
When the meeting ended, we went home. I did my homework, ate dinner, and slept.

"Yea"

"Uhh…I cant. I have soo many tests. And Sunny's mom is in the hospital. She needs me!"
"DAWN!" I scremed.

"SO? SO?"
"So…"
"Oh my gosh Dawn. I hate you! SOO much! You are-are sooo MEAN! And cruel to your friends…your SOO Different!" I slammed the phone and cried in my bed. I hated Dawn. From the bottom of my heart.
