" Can you believe her?! " Chloe shouted, Deema nodding by her side. " She's purposely trying to steal him away from me! And Gil's so falling for it! She must be some type of witch or...or...hypnotist! " Chloe stamped her foot, anger bubbling inside her. She had seen everything that had gone on between Molly and Gil in the music room. They way they both sounded so good together, the way Gil looked at Molly as if she were and angel. It made Chloe sick, and she knew she had to do something about it.
"Maybe you should just let this one slide, Chloe. " Deeam suggested, tapping away on her phone. " I mean, there has to be hotter guys out there. "
Chloe felt like screaming. Is Deema actually sticking up for Molly? " Don't you dare take her side, you know that I can strip you of your popularity in less than a second, if I had too. " Chloe snapped. Deema nodded, still not making any eye contact with Chloe.
" Who are you texting?! " Chloe asked, grabbing Deema's phone, scrolling through her messages. " MOLLY?! " Chloe screamed, causing everyone to turn in there seats. The librarian glided over to them, motioning for them to leave. Chloe rolled her eyes, stomping out of the library, Deema right behind her.
" Since when did everyone start liking her so much?! " Chloe asked, demanding for an answer. Deema shrugged, taking back her phone.
" She's kinda cool, once you get to know her. " Deema answered.
" No, she's not cool, and it looks like I have to remind everyone, again! " Chloe rolled her eyes, grabbing Deema's arm.
Gil had never even seen Goby around school grounds before. Like most students, Goby steered clear of Gil and most other 'populars'. Goby knew better than to mess with someone in a higher ranking than him. But when the two boys met just last week, it almost felt like they had known each other forever. Gil had noticed Goby's excessive creativity. He just kept coming up with new ways to do things or putting a creative new spin on things. Goby had noticed that Gil was more of a curious type of guy. Everywhere they went it was, 'what's this?', 'how do you work this thing?', 'should I press this big red button?'. You could say it was one of Gil's most likable traits. After that day in science class when they had become partners, Gol and Goby and been hanging out together nonstop. They were almost like brothers.
" Hey Gil! " Goby greeted happily, walking over to his daydreaming friend. Goby had noticed that ever since yesterday, Gil had been acting strange. " Gil? " Goby flicked Gil on his forehead, causing Gil to slip, falling in his chair.
" Oh, hey Goby..." Gil waved, turning back to his homework.
" Are you okay? " Goby asked, concerned. " You seem to be acting...weird. "
" Oh, it's nothing, really. " Gil reassured Goby. " I've just been...tired, lately. " Goby raised his eyebrow, sitting down next to Gil.
" Your lying. "
" How'd you know? "
" I didn't until just now. " Goby smiled, leaning back in his chair. " So, what's up? "
Gil motioned Goby to come closer. Goby followed, Gil lowering his voice into a whisper. " I've been shot. "
" WHAT?! " Goby shouted. Gil sighed as Goby quieted down. " Who shot you, are you okay? "
" No, I feel queasy, I haven't eaten in days, and I can't get any sleep..." Gil answered, looking down at his shoes.
" We should get you to a doctor's, you don't sound to good. And we better hurry, who knows what's gonna happen of you leave a bullet in you colon for too long. " Goby stood up, gesturing for Gil to follow.
" No Goby..." Gil smiled, sitting Goby down. " I wasn't really shot- "
" What? Then why...I'm really confused..." Goby said, scratching his head. Gil laughed, explaining to Goby what he really meant.
" I was shot by Cupid, you know, the guy in the diaper. I think he's supposed to be the guardian of love or something, I don't know. Anyway, there's this girl, I think she's in you math class- "
" Pink hair? " Goby asked, Gil's eyes widening.
" How'd you know? "
" I'd figured you'd like her..." Goby said, smiling. The two friends laughed walking out of the library. But meanwhile, a shadowy figure emerged from the shelves. She marched out of the library, texting everyone on her contact list.
Molly, your gonna be so sorry you ever messed with me, Chloe thought, sashaying down the hallway.
