I know I was trying to stray from Mean Girls but…if I took a couple lines from the movie I don't own anything. Please Review!

"I think we're aiming too high." Once again Haley, Nathan and I were dissecting every aspect of our scheme. It had become our regular topic of discussion.

"What do you mean Hales?"

"Well, maybe we shouldn't be going after the leader first. Maybe we should get rid of her followers. They are the ones who actually do all of her dirty work but without them she'll be all alone. So then when you steal Lucas, she ends up truly on her own." I thought about what Haley said and it made a lot of sense.

"You Haley James are a genius!" I exclaimed, clapping my hands for emphasis.

"I know how we can do it." For the first time Nathan decided to really join the planning process. "We only have to crack one of them I'm thinking Anna. Bevin is too stupid to realize what's going on and she'll just follow Anna." I listened to Nathan's thought and changed my previous statement.

"Sorry, Hales but I think Nathan is the real genius!"

I walked into school trying to act confident with my new look. Now that I was pretending to be one of the Plastics the first rule I was given was to never look down. Which was getting considerably harder because these shoes were killing my feet and I definitely going to trip over someone. I quickly slipped the note into Bevin's locker trying to be as discreet as possible. I couldn't wait until my next class with just Anna. I saw her when I walked in the class. It was the only one I was in with just Anna and not Peyton.

"So what are you going to wear to Peyton's party?" I asked after I sat down.

"What party?" she asked nervously. She couldn't understand that Peyton would have a party and not invite her.

"This one," I said handing her the invitation we had made last night. She was right where we wanted her.

"Where did you get this?" she asked her voice cracking.

"It was in my locker," I replied. As soon as the bell rang, she bolted to her locker and began frantically searching.

"What are you doing?" Bevin came up behind us.

"Have you heard anything about Peyton having a party?" she asked. She thought that maybe the whole thing was just a setup for Brooke or something.

"Yeah, I just got something in my locker this morning, why you didn't get one?" Anna didn't answer instead her face turned white as a ghost and she ran to the bathroom. I knew she wouldn't come right out and ask Peyton why she didn't invite her because that was borderline desperate. No there was nothing Anna could do but suck up and do whatever she could to get invited to this "party." And I needed to use every minute of it to my advantage.

"Anna I' m sure it's just a mistake," I tried to sound comforting.

"Maybe she just forgot about you," Bevin put in and I almost laughed. She really was incredibly dumb.

"Why would she invite you and not me? She doesn't even like you." Well, its not like I'm her biggest fan either.

"You know she claims to be a vegetarian, like me, but she just goes home and eats meat," she said dramatically. I hate to break it to her, but most people do.

"And you know she cheats on Lucas. Every Wednesday she says she has a study group but she is really hooking up with Tim Smith in the eraser room and I never told any one that." She said in one big breath. "Because I thought I was her best friend." That was exactly what we needed. But tomorrow was Wednesday I would figure out something by then. For now though, I had to finish that project with Lucas.

"So I finished memorizing my lines," Lucas said. We were at his house again because the assignment was due the next day.

"Me too," I glanced at him underneath my lashes. He was incredibly strange. Deep down I knew what an awful person he was but he gave off this nice guy vibe. Like, don't worry your secrets are safe with me. And he always does that brooding thing, and it doesn't seem like someone mean would do that all the time. Oh no. I cannot like the enemy. This is stupid. Well, if I was going to steal him, I had to practice.

"Are we going to practice the kissing part, or just wing it?" I can't believe I just said that. There is seriously something wrong with me. Wait a minute, he is totally leaning his head down. He's really going to kiss me. I guess I should meet him halfway. Our lips touched for about a nanosecond before he pulled away.

"Look, um, I like you and everything but I still sort of seeing Peyton," he seemed nervous and I almost felt bad for the guy. Almost.

"Why do you like her?" The words just came spilling out of my mouth. I have to learn to think before I speak.

He blushed. I could tell I was making him uncomfortable and I really didn't care at this point. "Everybody has their good and bad sides. She is just more open about the bad. But she really is a good person."

I couldn't take this anymore. I knew it was stupid. The plan was for him to see it himself but…"She's cheating on you!" Shit. I should not have been the one to tell him that. On the bright side now that those two were over, I would be able to finally make a real move on Lucas.
