The Clique
Chapter Three
Bridgette
After gym; Gwen and I headed to Math. We had that class with Courtney too; but because of the 'Queen bee' herself; she was in the nurse's office because of her poor face.
I sat next to Gwen quickly; setting my books carefully on my desk.
"Okay; we're getting Heather back for that," Gwen said; her eyes showing the rage she felt for Heather.
I nodded. "I think we should be peaceful about it though,"
"Typical Bridgette," Gwen stated, rolling her eyes, "She knocked Courtney over this morning; and then she throws a dodge ball at her on purpose. She's going to do more if we don't take a stand,"
I sighed in defeat. "I guess you're right; but what should we do?"
"Well, we could always-"Gwen started; that is until the boy behind us poked Gwen with a pencil.
The guy had a green mohawk and piercings. I blinked in confusion.
"Where's your friend; the uptight one?" He asked.
"Go ask Heather," Gwen said; glaring in Heather's direction. Heather glared back.
"I only threw a dodge ball at her; I think she was faking it," Heather replied innocently.
"Yeah right!" I called back at her; fuming. The pierced guy put his hands up in defense.
"Wow… I didn't mean to start a chick fight," He stated.
"Bitch," Gwen muttered under her breath.
"Launguage, Gwen," I reminded her quickly as the teacher walked in the room.
"Okay; when I say your name say 'here'," The teacher stated dully.
"Gwen,"
"Here," Gwen said dully.
"Heather,"
"Here," Heather stated in a suck-up sounding tone.
"Duncan?"
"Right here," Replied the kid with the green mohawk.
The teacher sighed before continuing down the list.
Math was finally over; Gwen and I headed to the cafeteria. I always packed my lunch, so I took a seat at an empty lunch table. Gwen went into the long lunch line.
I started to eat my lunch alone; thinking about the waves. I loved surfing so much; and I was going to miss it during my school days. Oh well; that's life anyway.
"Hey Bridge," I hear a familiar voice say. I turn to see Geoff. I could tell right away because of his bright pink shirt.
"Oh; hi Geoff. I didn't know you had second lunch period," I replied with a smile. Geoff seemed pleased.
"I haven't seen any of my friends yet; can I sit here?"Geoff asked; it looked as if he was trying to flirt with me.
"Sure," I replied with a nod. Geoff sat at the table.
"So; I'm having a party tonight. I was wondering if you would want to come." Geoff asked.
"Sorry; I have things to do this afternoon," I replied; a little disappointed.
"How about tomorrow? Anything planned then?" Geoff asked.
"No; I don't think so," I replied.
"Good! I have a party every day of the week! You can come over tomorrow with your friends if you want!" Geoff said cheerfully.
I blinked a few times; surprised at what he was saying. "Um… sure!" I agreed quickly.
"Cool!" Geoff exclaimed.
I just smiled as Gwen sat down next to me. She gave me a look as if to say 'Why the heck is that kid sitting here?'
"Geoff, this is Gwen. Gwen, this is Geoff," I introduced quickly. Gwen nodded once at Geoff; she didn't seem to approve of him very much.
All of the sudden; that one guy, Duncan sat at our table. He avoided us; and started to eat his lunch.
"Excuse me?" Gwen asked him; a little appalled at how rude he was being.
"There aren't any open tables," He muttered before taking a bite of his lunch.
"Dude! You look awesome!" Geoff exclaimed. Duncan looked at Geoff like he was crazy for a few seconds, and then shrugged it off.
Then Trent, some guy from our Chemistry came up and sat down. "Mind if I sit here?" He asked, eyeing Gwen. I raised a brow.
"Sure," Gwen said for me before taking a dull bite of her lunch. Trent sent a smile in her direction and sat down. I blinked a few more times before I continued to eat my lunch.
"So; when do you think Courtney will be out of the nurse's office?" Gwen asked me; ignoring the guys sitting at our tables.
I shrugged. "She was hiding her face, so I don't know how bad it was," I replied.
"Dude; what happened?" Geoff asked; trying to join our conversation. Gwen raised a brow at him.
"Heather threw a dodge ball at Courtney after the dodge ball game in gym ended. It was on purpose too," I explained. Geoff shook his head.
"I don't get what's wrong with that girl," Geoff said; looking to me if I agreed with him. I nodded once; and he looked satisfied.
With that; Duncan got up from the table and walked elsewhere. Gwen and I exchanged a glance.
Courtney
I rubbed my forehead at the continuous pain ringing through my head. Damn that Heather; she needs to go down.
So here I am, sitting in the nurse's office waiting for her to come back from her 'bathroom break'; which was taking about a half an hour now. I sighed in disgust; and got up from where I was sitting.
Everything in my sight started to fade black; head rush. So I had to sit down once again.
"Ugh," I groaned; rubbing my temples.
"Something the matter, princess?" I didn't bother to look up; I already knew it was Duncan standing in front of me.
"Why are you bothering me now?" I groaned.
"'Cause I have to make sure my girl's doing okay," Duncan replied smugly with a smirk. I hated that smirk.
"Last time I checked, I never belonged to anyone," I hissed.
"And now you do! Congrats!" Duncan joked.
"Ugh; just shut up and go away, will you?" I moaned; I didn't feel like fighting, and the throbbing pains in my head were getting worse.
"Oh; princess is getting feisty… I like that," Duncan replied, sitting in a chair next to me. I just groaned again. "Seriously though; are you okay?"
I blinked in confusion. I thought I'd never see the day that Duncan was serious about something.
Duncan waved his hands in front of my face. "Princess; come on,"
I snapped out of my thoughts. "I'm feeling horrible; and if you went away, I'd probably start to feel better," I hissed.
"Nah; I don't think that's right. I'm probably making it better," Duncan said with a smirk.
"You… are… such a pig!" I growled; standing up to leave. Another head rush hit me; causing my knees to buckle.
"Oi, princess. Stay still or you're going to make it worse," Duncan scolded as he helped me back into the chair. I kept my head in my hands; and nodded once.
A few aqward seconds past.
"Do you want me to beat the crap out of Heather? I mean, I don't usually hit girls; but I can do it if you want me too," Duncan stated randomly. I glanced up at him; curious and confused. Was he being serious; was he actually caring about a preppy girl like me?
I giggled a little at how serious his face looked; and for a second, I thought I might be able to like him. I automatically threw that though out of my head.
"What's so funny?" Duncan asked; still serious.
"It's just weird; seeing you… serious for once," I gasped in between my laughter.
"Well, you do have a side of humor," Duncan replied with a smirk. I shot a glare at him.
"Of course I do; you can't just judge a book by its cover!" I exclaimed. Duncan looked at me evenly.
"Follow your own advice, princess," He said before leaving the nurse's office.
I blinked as he walked away; a bit confused on what he meant.
The nurse finally came back into the room with a bandage.
Gwen
Okay; this Trent guy keeps smiling at me; and it's scaring the crap out of me.
"What?" I finally asked when I caught him staring at me again.
"Hm?" Trent asked; still wearing his easy going smile, "You want to talk?"
Seeing as Bridgette and Geoff went somewhere else I shrugged.
"Why not," I agreed. We sat there in silence for a few minutes.
"Hobby?" Trent asked, trying to start a conversation.
"… Drawing and writing," I replied slowly.
"Cool! What do you like to draw?" Trent asked. His voice was actually very smooth; I liked it.
"Anything I can find, nature, people, objects," I explained, "What about you?"
"Playing the guitar and writing my own music," Trent replied. My eyes were wide; I was starting to be impressed by this guy.
"You write your own music?" I asked, curious.
"Yeah, sometimes. I'm working on a new one," Trent replied; he seemed a little happy that I seemed impressed. "I might play at the talent show,"
"A talent show?" I asked, my brow raised.
"Yeah, we're having talent show try outs next week on Friday," Trent explained, "I saw a flyer,"
"That's cool," I replied, smiling. "I don't think I'm going to try out; but I'll go see it,"
Trent seemed pleased. "Sure thing; I'd love to have you there,"
I could fell a small blush creep across my face. Is this what love at first sight is like?
Okay; finished for now! I hope you all liked it! Things are starting to get a bit more interesting I hope, and more drama will come soon enough! The first few chapters may seem a little boring; but they'll get better! XD
And I'm sorry this chapter is a little short; I promise the next one will be longer!
