I hate slores and skitches (slutty whores and skanky bitches).

Jade POV

Tori, Natalie, and I walked into the auditorium for class and Beck waved us over to the far end. I scowled when I saw that Aria was on one side of Beck, and almost growled when my brain registered that Natalie had sat in the seat on his other side. Tori gave me a look that said 'play nice'.

I rolled my eyes at Tori and shoved her out of my way.

"And so I really need to get new product for my hair because it's drying out and becoming all stingy. Feel it!" Natalie complained to Beck.

He awkwardly touched her hair and quickly said, "oh no; it think it's fine."

I tapped Natalie's shoulder. "Um, that's my boyfriend right there. Since you didn't know that, I will give you five seconds to get out of my seat."

"Or else?" She raised an eyebrow.

"I will pop your head like a zit."

She got up and in my face. "Excuse me?"

"Did you fart?" I asked sarcastically.

Someone grabbed my sides.

"What?" I yelled, turning around.

"Calm down. What happened to your eye?" Beck asked.

"Idiot bastard. He's probably in alternative education or suspended or something. He's stupid, a jerk, an ass, whatever."

"Whatever?"

"Hey dee ho dee doobers!" Robbie yelled from behind me.

"Shut! Up!"

"Ooh, I guess Jade didn't take her special pills this morning," Rex said.

I grabbed Robbie's head. "Make your puppet shut up before I sneak into your room at night with my special scissors and cut him apart," I said, and sat down in a huff.

Beck sat down next to me and put his arm around me. I buried my face in his chest. He stroked my hair and kissed my neck.

"Awww," I heard Tori drag out behind me, and I resisted the urge to give her the evil eye.

"Oh! Tori!" an annoying voice screeched from across the auditorium. Trina. Oh God, I had forgotten she was going to be in that class.

Apparently Lily Reneé had gotten here already, because I could hear her and Aria babbling about who our teacher would be and what the class would be like. Trina sat on the arm rest between Tori and me. "So, Tori, I met the cutest guy and need you to be my wingwoman."

I pushed her off the rest. "Find a seat."

She ran away in her awkward Trina way and sat next to Natalie, practically putting her elbows in Natalie's lap to speak to Tori across her.

The bell rang, and we were all getting pretty anxious about who the teacher would be. We all heard two claps and the lights dimmed. A single spotlight came on as the curtains opened, and a form was outlined. "Hello Kalifte High drama class! Are you ready to rock!"

Pure silence in the audience caused him to say, "well too bad, because there's no band up here."

The lights came back on and the spotlight dimmed, and I realized it was Sikowitz up there on stage.

"Sikowitz!" Tori yelled, standing up.

"Toro!" he yelled back. "Okay, we are going to do some improv. acting exercises! Would oneof my Hollywood Arts students like to start us off? Raise your hands people!"

Almost everyone from HA raised their hands. We weren't expecting acting class to be as fun as it used to, and were all really excited.

He pointed his hand in our direction. "Trina!" he yelled.

She scurried up on stage. "I pick Tori, Beck, Aria, Lily, and Robbie to be in my group."

"Well come on up young kiddles!" Sikowitz started to drink some milk out of a coconut.

Trina grinned at me evilly. She left me sitting here with Natalie. Trina was so going to get it later. She started the scene, pretending to shield her eyes. "Please, no more pictures! Just because I'm the biggest super-"

I tuned the scene out, taking my pear phone out of my backpack and plugging in the headphones. Normally this class was fun, but with Trina leading the scene and having to sit next to the girl who hit on my boyfriend, I just wanted to go into Skillet Wonderland.

"I'm awake, I'm alive
Now I know what I believe inside-"

Natalie poked my arm and I pulled out my earphones. "Yeah?" I asked, exasperated.

"So that's your boyfriend?" She pointed to Beck, who was negotiating something about Trina with Lily Reneé.

"Yes. He is. So I would suggest you back off."

"Don't worry. He's yours. I get it, and I will leave him alone. Even though he is hot… But you can't expect every girl in this school to be as accepting as me. They will work as hard as possible to tear him from you."

"Cut!" Sikowitz called. "I'm bored. How about you add some space aliens?"

Trina pouted. "But this is supposed to be the most accurate possibility of what my future could be. Why would I add space aliens?"

"To make me not want to go to sleep when I watch your performances. Go sit."

Everyone on stage's eyes questioned him. "Yes, all of you."

They came back and sat down, and Beck put his arm around me. I began to notice all of the glares I was getting from the scattered girls around the auditorium.

André POV

I met up with Cat in room 429 for lunch. She brought 'Nessy' and some other girl named AnnaBelle VonFecici, but they just called her Anna. She seemed ten times more annoying than Vanessa and I was just about ready to stab myself with my fork so I could have a reason to leave the room and get out of their ridiculous conversation.

"So if I was going to get a tattoo it would be of a butterfly on my ankle. Wouldn't that be so cute?" Vanessa asked.

AnnaBelle smiled. "That's so cool! I would get the Japanese symbol for courage on my lower back."

Vanessa looked at her as if she was processing something. Something tells me her brain uses dialup. "Why the Japanese symbol?"

"Because Japanese symbols are awesome looking!" AnnaBelle grinned. "What about you Cat?"

She had been chewing on her hair and spit it out. "Nothing. I'm not allowed too."

"If you could though?"

"I don't want to get one."

Vanessa rolled her eyes playfully. "You are such a goody two shoes."

"WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!" Cat yelled, and everyone in the classroom turned to look at us.

I thrust my fork down at my leg, but stopped it right before it made impact. "Oh no," I said weakly. "Looks like I hurt myself with my fork. I guess I have to go to the nurse's office…" I added a sad smile for effect before turning to head out the door.

"Wait, André!" Cat called. "We'll come too."

I patted her head. "It's fine Little Red. I'll go by myself." I limped out of the room for my big finish.

When I opened the door I ran into Mike and Nate. They both had bruises sprouting all over their arms and Nate was sporting a black eye. "Nice battle scars," I joked.

Mike shrugged, but then winced, grabbing his shoulder. "Not far from the truth."

I got curious. "Do you know what happened to Landon?"

Nate smiled. "Suspended for three days. May not sound like much, but hey. Three days with or without Landon, what's your choice?" He chuckled.

"You guys need to come eat lunch with me," I begged. "It's like eight-year-old-girl-topia in there. Planning tattoos, singing the waggafuffles. I got exhausted just listening to them. Please help me."

They looked at each other and nodded their heads at me in sync. It was almost creepy. "Sure André, it'd be nice to eat with someone new for a change. Do you mind if we bring the rest of our group?" Nate asked.

My eyes widened in excitement. "More guys? Yes! Thank the Lord!"

Jade POV

Beck didn't show up in the library at the beginning of lunch, so I went to his fourth period class to check it out (I read his schedule while he was in the bathroom one day…).

He was talking earnestly to a blonde girl who really needed to get a top that fit.

I cleared my throat.

"Oh, hey Jade. I'll be in the library in a second."

"Who's your friend?"

"This is Mary. She needed some help understanding today's lesson and I got it perfectly, so I was just explaining it."

"Yeah, so just get lost," Mary said.

"I'll do that as soon as you tuck your boobs back in your shirt."

I suck. I'm so sorry this is a day late. I just had some minor writers block (hence the shortness of the chapter) but got somewhat over it. I swear I'll actually update at the time I said I would this time:
