"I can't wait to see Mr.Myner's face when we go to his class." Massie exclaimed as she adjusted her white BCBG Corozo silk charmeuse top.
"Same." Alicia chirped. Suddenly she was interrupted by a short beep. It was an instant message. As she checked her Motorola PebL, her almond-shape eyes immediately brightened up. "Ehmygawd it's Josh!"
Claire immediately looked away. Whenever Josh's name came up, she always felt uncomfortable from the horrible memory she had of the beginning of the camping trip they had taken to Lake Placid, when Josh had had a crush on her.
"Hotz?" Dylan asked, biting the straw on her Mocha Frappuchino.
"Yes Josh." Alicia raised her eyebrows at Dylan. "Who else do we know that is named Josh?"
"I thought he didn't like you, you know since he likes Claire." Kristen added without thinking. At this Claire turned as red as Alicia's Vegabond red nails.
"Everyone knows he doesn't like me anymore" Claire said, picking at her swollen cuticles. Alicia's firm grip on her cell phone loosened. She checked her phone, not sure what to expect.
Josh: Hey you J
Alicia's heart started to get beat faster. Was he just texting her for no reason to flirt? Or did he just need some other girl's number? She didn't know what to say, nervous that she might sound stupid.
Alicia: Hey
"Well?" Massie asked, tapping her white Prada flip-flops. "What did he say?"
"He just says hi." Alicia said, wondering what he might need. 5 Seconds later she received another text message.
Josh: whats up?
Alicia's insides filled with joy. He was talking to her! And not so he could hook up with some other girl. She quickly responded.
Alicia: nm you?? She was answered short after.
Josh?? r u doing this Saturday?
Ehmygawd! He was asking her out! "He just asked me what I was doing this Saturday!"
Claire became happy immediately. "That's awesome"
The rest of the girls enthused with Alicia, who, at the moment, felt like her life was finally perfect…
