Don't Forget Your Sunscreen

AN: kay here is the new chapter. I think I am gonna have Claire stay with Collin XD I think they are a cuter couple.

"Do you really think Claire found someone else that fast?" Cam asked after seeing her with a mysterious boy in the hotel's café. "I mean wasn't she crying? When did she have time to meet someone new?"

"What does it matter; you don't like her anymore so why do you keep going on about it?" Danielle rolled her eyes. Cam had called her and asked her to join her down at the pool and for the ten minutes they had been there so far, all he talked about was Claire. "So what's it like in West Chester?" Danielle asked changing the subject.

"It's so cute how you say West Chester instead of Westchester," smiled Cam at Danielle, shyly.

"Yeah if you like someone who sounds totally stupid," Massie scoffed as she walked by the couple with the Pretty Committee- still minus Kuh-laire. Where was she?!

"Does everyone act like that in West Chester? And do they all dress like that?"

"Yeah. Everyone except Claire- well the old Claire anyways."

Danielle rolled her eyes. She couldn't believe they were talking about her again. She was about to start acting like the snobby girls she hated. "I'll be right back," she fake smiled before standing up.

"Okay. I'll be in the pool."

Danielle made her way through the maze of chairs and people towards the cabana the Pretty Committee had just entered.

"Ew. Why are you here?" sneered Kristen at the unwanted arrival.

"Oh I just really wanted to see what people from Westchester do on vacation." Danielle had no idea where that excuse came from but she knew girls like them loved attention and decided to play the part of helpful fan. "Let me help you," she said hurrying over to where Alicia was struggling to balance towels, her Louis Vuitton monogrammed Dentelle purse, and four bottles of Perrier.

"Thanks."

"Don't mention it. I love helping people. And of course the rich and famous."

"Danielle, are you a fly?"

"No…" Danielle said confused.

"Then why are you bugging us?" As far as a Massie joke it was lame, but she didn't have time to think of a better one. She was way too stressed from Kuh-laire and her ah-nnoying boy drama. Not to mention her friends and all their problems too.

"That's pretty good. I'm surprised you even know what a fly is considering how much time you obviously spend at the mall."

Even though Danielle had insulted Massie- and it was a pretty sad insult- she did like her attitude. With better clothes, some make up, and few more tweaks she could actually fit in with the Pretty Committee. But she lived in Florida.

"Now why couldn't Claire be like you when she came to Westchester? You would be perfect to be in The Pretty Committee. Anyways, Dan, you've got to go. Bye now."

"Wait I thought you said I would be perfect?" she said ignoring be called Dan.

"Ye-ah I did. But you live in Florida and we live in New York. That's ah-bviously going to work."

Danielle's plan was starting to fail. That could not happen. "Well what if I hung out with you guys just in Florida?"

"We're leaving for Miami tomorrow so unless you want to follow us there- which would be totally stalker-ish- I don't think so," said Dylan.

"Mass? What do you think?" asked Alicia

Massie sat down and thought the offer over. Danielle would totally do whatever she said and Massie could use someone to do her work. "Actually it might work Danielle. Sure why don't you join us. Welcome to the Pretty Committee!"

Claire couldn't help but feel happy and giddy as she waited for the elevator down, after changing into her swim suit. Colin was so nice and perfect! He totally understood her and he lived in New York so she could see him whenever she wanted! 'Who needs Cam?'

As if on cue Cam walked out of his room and towards the elevator. Claire stood up straight and rolled her shoulders back. Time to show him she didn't need him anymore! When the doors to the elevator opened they both stepped through and hit the number for the lobby. When their hands touched Claire still felt the lightning bolt even though she didn't like him anymore. 'Why is that still happening?'

"So I see you found a new guy."

"And I see you found a new girl."

The rest of the ride down, an uncomfortable silence filled the elevator. When the doors opened, Claire raced towards the pool. She needed to relax and hang with her friends and she needed that now. She spotted them laying on chairs underneath a cabana next to the pool and made her way over. She set her bag down and laid out on an empty chair.

"Hi guys. Sorry I ran off like that."

Claire looked at each of the girls. Alicia was looking through her bag with urgency, Dylan shoved a carrot stick in her mouth, and Kristen stayed focused on her Teen Vogue. Massie was the only one not avoiding her gaze.

"Hi Claire. Where were you?"

"Oh I was just cooling off at the Café but here I am!" She threw her arms above her head like someone jumping out of a cake.

"Unfortunately," said a cold voice behind her.

Claire turned and gasped. There was Danielle holding two fruity drinks and a cell phone.

"Move. You're in my seat."

Massie patted the seat next to her. "It's okay sit here."

"No. I want this LBR to move."

Claire gasped again and turned towards Massie. "Why is she using your word? Did you seriously let her join?"

Massie shrugged and sipped the drink Danielle had gotten for her.

Danielle smirked, "Yeah she did. So unless you want to start something, move."

Claire was shaking and before she could stop and think she grabbed her sunscreen, unscrewed the cap, and stood facing Danielle all in one smooth motion.

"You can have the chair," she said sweetly but then her expression changed to one of anger. "Don't forget your sunscreen!" she yelled before squirting the white, smelly substance at Danielle's face.

Danielle dropped her phone and stumbled backwards. She lost her balance and toppled, still dressed and holding the drink, into the pool. The Pretty Committee sat there mouths open before bursting out laughing. Danielle came up sputtering and angry.

"Buh- bye Dan!" Massie waved her hand.

"But I thought I was part of the Pretty Committee?"

"Oh puh-lease! I already told you. It wouldn't work. I was just thirsty."

The girls high- fived each other as Danielle got out of the water, soaked. She bent over and swiped Massie's drink out of her hand.

"You look dry," she said before dumping the half full glass over Massie's head. Danielle then turned, grabbed her stuff, and marched off in a huff. Everyone sat in shock as the pink drink dripped down Massie's face.

AN: I couldn't think of a better way to end the chapter so I just ended it there. I am planning on only one or two more chapters and an epilogue. XD please review! after reading of course
