Dylan's House
Dylan's Room
Thursday 7:45 a.m.
Dylan sat on her bed feeling bad about not answering Massie's ims, but she was still upset at how she abandoned them. She was jolted out of her thoughts by the ringing of her cell phone. It was Claire. Dylan comtemplated not answering but decided against it since she wasn't mad at Claire.
"Hello?" Dylan answered.
"Hey Dyl it's Claire, me and Alicia are going over to Massie house, you should come too." Claire said
"Um I don't think so" Dylan replied
"Come on Dyl, isn't this kind of dumb Massie wasn't trying to blow us off or anything, she was just in over her head" claimed Claire.
"I'll think about it, look I have a lot to do today, I'll talk to you later" Dylan said as she told Claire goodbye.

"This is great, can you believe our luck!" exclaimed Alicia.
"Yeah this is ah-mazing"said Massie."But the real reason why I invited you here is because of Claire, it's just a shame that Kristen and Dylan are being so wierd. Oh well we'll deal with them later."
What do you mean invited us here for Claire, what happened"asked Alicia. "and how many gossip points is it worth?"
Claire immediatley began tugging on her bangs, a habit she had yet to kick. She didn't know how to respond luckily Massie cam to her defense.
"Alicia are you the tin man from the wizard of oz?"said Massie.
"What?" "No" "Why?" asked Alicia.
"Because you obviously have no heart." Massie retorted."Claire is going through a really tough time right now and we are supposed to help her not question her about how many gossip points her love life is worth.
"OMG is this about Cam, I had no idea, I'm so sorry, what happened?" asked Alicia.
"Well, he dumped me" said Claire trying unsuccessfully to hold back her tears, somehow it seemed like lately crying had become second nature to her.
"And we have to do something" interrupted Massie.
"Given" said Alicia.
Claire couldn't help but wonder if Alicia was sincere it was not even two weeks before that she had kissed Cam in an attempt to get back at Claire. Thinking about this also made Claire wonder if Alicia was the real reason she was no longer with him, but she pushed these thoughts out of her mind, believing that Alicia was not the sneaky person she once was.
"Oh yeah" said Massie almost forgetting the most important thing "my dad found us a great school, it's called Rolling Hills Academy for Boys and Girls."
"Yeah my dad told me about it, he said it was my decision if I wanted to go or not, of course I told him YEAH! " Alicia said practically jumping up and down with excitement.
For the rest of the morning and the afternoon the girls spent their time just hanging out. They planned a shopping trip for Saturday hoping that it would cheer Claire up and reunite the Pretty Committee.
Block Estate
Massie's Bedroom
Saturday 12:15 p.m.
Before heading downstairs to the limo she tried one last time to IM Kristen and Dylan, her attempts were again unsuccessful. At least she could get some shopping in before she started her new school on Monday. She called Claire and Alicia, and did one last mirror check before finally going downstairs and getting into their limo.
"Hey Massie" Claire said as she slid across the leather seats. Claire couldn't help but think about her conversation with Dylan the night before. Dylan still seemed so hurt, Claire didn't know what to do, but she figured it was best not to tell Massie just yet, she wanted this to be a nice trip.
"Claire this is so ah-mazing" Massie said "everytihing will be the same again"
They rode the rest of the way to Alicia's house talking about how everything will be like nothing had ever changed, well Massie talked and Claire just sat there tugging on her bangs.
They pulled up to Alicia house just as she was walking out of her front door, which was a relief since she took forever to walk to the car.
"Hey guys" Alicia said as she got in the car.
They had a good time joking and talking on the way to the mall, and this time Claire joined in.
Westchester Mall
Saturday 1 p.m.
As soon and they stepped through the huge revolving doors Massie's cell phone rang.
"Hello" Massie answered annoyed that her shopping trip was being interrupted.
"Hey Massie, it's Kristen, I have something very important to tell you" Kristen said sounding like she was on the verge of crying.
"OMG Kristen, where are you why haven't you called or IMed or texted me, you been totally weird lately !" Massie said in a rush.
"Yeah, I know, i'm sorry about that i've just had a lot on my mind lately, but I really need to talk to you" Kristen repeated.
"Well, we're kinda at the mall right now, we could pick you up after we leave though" said Massie.
"Okay I'll see you then" said Kristen.
"You guys that was Kristen" said Massie as she shut her cell phone.
"Well, what did she say!" asked Alicia practically yelling.
"She wants us to come by after we finish here, she has something to tell us." answered Massie.
" I wonder what it could be" asked Claire "I guess we'll find out later"
"Yeah, come on on you guys it's time for me to put my master plan in action," said Massie
"What exactly is your plan" asked Alicia.
Massie smiled but said nothing, she wanted this to be a surprise for the both of them even if it the plan was created for Claire.
For the whole shopping trip Massie spent her time picking out the best clothes for Claire, most of them Claire thought to be a little too provacative but she didn't dare argue with Massie because she knew it was a lost cause.
By the end of the afternoon Massie had picked out severl outfits for Claire and Alicia was still trying to figure out what the plan was, but Massie was determined not to spill until the last possible moment.
Blocks Limo
5:45 p.m.
Massie's limo pulled up to Kristen's apartment to find Kristen sitting on the stoop with a crossword puzzle book on her lap and a chewed up pencil in her mouth. Kristen ran up the limo and got in. She looked as if she'd been crying.
"OMG Kris what's wrongs?" asked Massie
" I'm moving to Atlanta" said Kristen in rush, tears streamingdown her face. She figured it was best to just get it out and answer questions later.
"WHAT?" all three of the other girls yelled almost in unison.
