Chapter 18:
A Truce
"Are you kidding me? They do all this crap to you and expect you to just jump on and be their friend just like that? Just like that?" Krysta exclaimed when Dana told them what happened the other day.
Dana nodded. "Yeah, pretty much." She saw the Bratz going to sit down at their usual table looking as pretty as always. "I think I'm going to sit over there today. Do you mind?"
All of their mouths dropped. "What?"
"You've got to be kidding!" Aubrey exclaimed.
"Just this once," Dana said walking over to them with her lunch. All of them looked at her when she got to their table. It reminded her of her first day. "Got room for one more?"
Sasha looked at her friends. "Let's vote girls. Should new girl sit over here?"
"Si mama," Yasmin said.
Cloe twisted her finger. "I guess."
Jade leaned back and propped her boots up on the table. "Better hurry up before we run out of space."
Sasha looked at Dana. "You heard them."
Dana happily took the seat next to her.
Koby came over and sat on the table next to Jade. "Hey babe." He kissed her lips. Dylan took the seat next to her. He and Koby did their old handshake.
"So you've worked out all your issues?" she asked.
Dylan nodded. "Totally. And I've got my heart set on Sabina now." He scanned the cafeteria and soon found her. "I hate to abandon my girls, but see ya!" he got up and went to sit with Sabina.
"Well, now I don't have to worry about him trying to take you from me," Koby said.
"No one could ever do that Koby," Jade said leaning in to kiss him.
"AWW!" the rest of them exclaimed.
Jade and Koby glared at them. "Shut up!"
Cade and Cameron came over. "'Sup ladies?" Cameron said.
Cade looked at Dana surprised. "What's she doing over here?"
"We invited her to sit with us. Problem?" Sasha said.
Cade held up his hands. "Not at all." He bit into his sandwich. "I just thought you hated her is all."
Yasmin plucked him in the back of his head. "He didn't mean that," she said to Dana.
"Yes I did…ow!" She plucked him again before he could finish.
Dana smiled as she watched them. They weren't as bad as she thought they were. Maybe now that they were on good terms, they'd end up becoming good friends.
So that's the end. The Bratz and Dana are now friends. She's a part of their inner circle. Comments are greatly appreciated. Peace out my lovelies!
