Disclaimer:I do not own the Clique.

Thanks for the reviews.

I realized that I hardly have Kristen in this story, and I'll try to put her in more, but she's not going to get her own storyline, she'll be more of that friend they go to when they need help.

Sorry this chapter is out so late, my dog chewed some wires.

The wind blew across the field, and the maple leaves shook with power. Massie was walking quickly into school, covering her head with a blue sweatshirt, glancing around for Dylan, who normally met her at the front steps. When she didn't find her, Massie sighed. She hated walking the hallways alone, it made her feel like a loser even through she wasn't. As she passed a couple of students, she took a double look back, and gasped why was Cam and Olivia making-out?

Massie sighed, if Cam couldn't even stay single for one day, what made her think she had a chance with him? She was sick of being the girl who was quiet, and only Dylan was her friend, Massie wanted to branch out and have more friends and maybe even a boyfriend, and she knew only one way of getting that.

She walked toward the end of school she never normally goes. The popular end. Ignoring the glances she gets, Massie stomps over to Derrick, who is unsuccessfully trying to flirt with a brunette girl, and taps him lightly on the shoulder.

He turns around and smiles when he sees her. "Yes?"

"We need to talk." Massie demands, holding her hands near her side, her body shaking, she can't believe what she just did.

"Yea?" He questions, folding his arms across his broad chest.

Massie looks around and notices a lot of people are staring at them. She grabs Derrick's arm and pulls him towards the uncrowded side of the hallway.

"Whoa baby, chill," He mutters, looking her up and down. "Now, what did you want?" He asks.

"I wanted to know if you wanted to go to the Slice of Heaven with me tonight?" Massie responds, nervously scratching the side of her tan cheek.

Derrick smirked at her. "That would be great," He replies, looking down at her. "I'll pick you up at seven,"

Massie nods her head, and shyly looks down at the ground. "I'll see you later," She softly says, walking away, her eyes shining. As soon as she reached the corner, Massie pumped her hand into the air, and grinned happily. She couldn't believe that she had a date with Derrick Harrington. Now all she had to do was find Dylan to tell her.

Olivia pulled away from Cam, and smiled. "My lips hurt from kissing you so much," She giggles, and wraps her arms around his neck. Her long hair rested on his neck, tickling Cam. He shifted slightly and turned to face her. As they leaned into each other for another kiss, Alicia came running up to them.

"Guys, I have major news," She squeals, her face red from hardly ever running in her life before. "Derrick and Massie Block have a date together!" She whisper-yells.

"What?" Olivia and Can exclaim together.

"He just told me as I was walking to Josh's locker," Alicia confirms, swinging her hair over her shoulder.

Olivia glanced down at the ground, her heart was pounding. Why would Derrick go out with another girl? After the movies last night, Olivia was positive that Derrick was still in love with her. She would just have to try harder, but then Cam looked over at her and smiled. Olivia bit her lip, she knew she still liked Derrick deep in her heart, but Cam treated her so well, and she had true feelings for him too.

"Well...who cares," Olivia murmurs, putting on a fake smile for her friends.

Alicia questionably looks at her, but doesn't say anything.

"Hey girlies," Claire says, walking up towards them. She was wearing a tight shirt that barely covered her stomach and her make-up was caked on her face. It was obvious she was trying to impress a boy.

"Hi," Alicia giggles, putting a arm around her friend to give her a small hug. "Did you hear the news?"

"Who didn't, it's going around the school faster than last year when Kristen and Dempsey were caught kissing in the janitors closet," Claire responds, sitting down on the edge next to Alicia.

"Are you OK with Derrick going out with other girls?" Cam asks, placing his hand on Olivia's knee.

"Um...yeah, I've been over Derr-Derrick for like weeks," Olivia stutters, squeezing her eyes shut, hating herself for lying to her boyfriend.

Alicia and Claire looked at each other and sighed. They knew Olivia was lying and although they didn't approve, they understood how it must feel to be torn between two boys.

"So, Leesh where's Josh?" Claire questions, keeping her face neutral, trying not to meet Olivia's face, knowing she was probably glaring at her.

Alicia was silent for a moment, then said, "He never answered my calls last night, and I haven't spoke to him all day," Her face turned grave and she was thinking of the worst.

"Are you guys..gonna you know...break up?" Olivia asks, her voice growing softer.

"I'm not sure, I gave him the ring, but now I think he isn't sure about his feelings," Alicia answers.

The bell rang before Claire could say something nice, but she was sure she wouldn't have said anything anyway. Josh and Alicia were on the verge of breaking up and now was her chance. All she had to do was flirt a little with Josh and he would come running to her. She was sure of it.

Moving the pen aside, Dylan lifted her phone out of her jean pocket. She couldn't believe all the rumors she had heard and wanted to hear from her friend herself, before she listened to everyone.

Dylan-Mass, u there? I have a quick question for u.

Massie-Yea?

Dylan-Do you or do you not have a date with Derrick!

Massie-Yea, I saw something and it made me realize I shouldn't be so scared all the time, and I just did it.

Dylan-When is the date? Do you have a outfit? Where is it?

Massie-Around 7. No. and Slice of heaven.

Dylan-I'm coming over ur house then at five to help get you ready.

Massie-Kay, TTYl

Dylan took a deep breath, this was what she had wanted forever. But deep back in her mind, she couldn't help but think of what would happen if Massie started to hang out with the popular kids. Dylan would never fit in with them, and she couldn't make Massie pick between Dylan and her new friends if it ever happened. If Massie and Derrick did happen to stay together as boyfriend and girlfriend, Dylan would always be pushed to the side, the forgotten friend. Dylan shook her head, her and Massie had been friends for years, that would never happen. Ever.

Pushing her fingers deep into her side, Alicia looked over at Josh and Kristen who were quietly talking in class. She didn't mind that they were talking, but why wasn't Josh even attempting to talk with Alicia, she was his girlfriend. Claire tapped Alicia's arm and gave her a supportive smile. Claire may like Josh, but Alicia was her friend first.

"I just don't even know what I did, that's what bugs me the most," Alicia whispers, leaning in so Claire could hear her better without the teacher suspecting they were talking.

"Maybe he thinks you guys are to serious and he doesn't want to be committed," Claire guesses.

Alicia let that roll around her head, and sighed. "I suppose that could be it, but I'm just going to have to talk with him about it later,"

Claire gently touched her head against Alicia's for a moment, "Good luck," She murmurs.

"Thanks, I'm going to need it," Alicia responds.

As Claire goes back to writing in her notebook, her cell-phone vibrates. She slips it out and quickly looks at the screen. Her eyes bugg in surprise, its a text from Cam and it says

We need to talk

-Cam

Alicia leans over and looks at the screen too. "Why would your ex-boyfriend want to talk to you?"

Claire shrugs, and her mouth twists in a frown. Cam couldn't want her back, could he?

Playing with her ring, Massie walks quickly down the hallway. She was really excited about her date with Derrick, and no one could bring her down today. Everyone was coming up to her and confirming it, and for once in her life, Massie was actually happy that people were talking about her behind her back. She spotted Derrick coming her way and gave him a smile. He looked at her and motioned for her to come to him.

"I guess were the biggest news today," Derrick says. He put a hand in his pocket, and shook his shaggy hair out of his eyes.

Massie playfully rolled her eyes, "Everyone is flipping out," She agrees.

Derrick touched her shoulder for a second and started to walk away. "I got to head to class, see ya later,"

They both walked their separate ways to their classes, in high spirits. Massie practically skipped into home-ec and plopped into her seat next to Kristen Gregory, a member of the Pretty Committee, who Massie was actually kind of friends with.

"I heard the good news," Kristen says, placing her notebook and pen on the oak desk.

"Yea," Massie dreamily says, her eyes shining with happiness.

"Good luck on your date," Kristen responds, shifting in her seat to become more comfortable.

"Thanks," Massie answers, giving Kristen a easy smile. This was Massie's moment, if her date went well, and she started to date Derrick then her life would be perfect. She would have a hot boyfriend, a funny best friend, and in with the Pretty Committee. Everything anyone could wish for.
