Chapter 2
The Following Day at School (Zoey's pov)
Okay so what happen last night was AWKWARD. Does this mean he likes me? Does he have a girlfriend? Does this mean were going out? Ughh I have so many questions and not enough time to answer them. (The bell rings for class and I sit down next to some girl name Alice). "I hear you kissed Howard last night" Alice said as my eyes widen and then I yelled out "WHAT!?" Almost the whole class heard me except the teacher of course. "Quiet down" she said "Things spread fast around here and whether you like it or not people will find out and bug you about it." "Why would they?" I said "Howard has a girlfriend Duh!" she replied with emphasis. "He does, who is it?" I whispered "It's Jade" she responded. After that sentence I stayed quiet and felt like throwing up. What if Jade finds out? Now I definitely have a lot of questions. (The bell rings and I go to lunch) I look around the cafeteria and Jade waves to me (Obviously she doesn't know yet and I will try to keep it that way). I sat down next to her and talked about Cheerleading tryouts (2 days from now). "You'll do great and I'll make sure you get on the team." She said "Great…" I mumbled. (Soon school ends and I rush home and didn't pick up the phone or anything).
Thursday at School…
I have phys ed with JADE. I got there and the only spot not taken was one next to Jade. I stood there "Well girls if you want to make the team your going to have to stay in shape" the teacher said. We did some stretches and push-ups and stuff. Then we started jogging Jade got near me (Thinking she still didn't know I started to slow down to talk with her) then she speeded up and tripped me as I was going. I fell FLAT ON MY FACE OUCH! "That's what happens when you steal my boyfriend, you know you're not good enough for him so stop trying low-life." That pissed me off so I got up and slapped her across the face (This soon turned into a cat fight). "All you are is a geek with no life who sits in front of the television and computer playing games" Jade shouted "And all you are is a spoiled brat who doesn't do anything but sit while people do your dirty work" I shouted back. It wasn't long before the phys ed teacher came and broke up the fight.
Later at the Dean's Office…
Both our parents were there and ready to ground us for A MONTH. "What is this about?" Jade's mom asked "She tried to steal my…" Jade paused. "Steal what?" her mom asked "Nothing…" Jade replied. "She thinks I tried to steal her boyfriend" I said "BOYFRIEND?!" her mom shouted in surprise "Ok that's it your grounded for a week" her mom said as she and Jade left. "As for you young lady your grounded for 2 weeks!" my mom shouted "But mom that's not fair she only got grounded for a week!" I said in a mean tone. "Well as far as I'm concerned you're not her not were going home!" she yelled as we left. I went straight to bed when I got home and I didn't say a thing.
