Westcher Prep
7:20 a.m.
Alicia stepped out of new black BMW and onto the freshly cut grass of Westchester Prep. She took a minute to acknowledge her surroundings. She watched as the freshmen tried to navigate around the sophomores who were glad they were no longer at the bottom of the food chain called high school. Alicia was wearing her new Alice + Olivia mindy stretch-silk blouse paired with a draped sea green skirt and black oxfords. With her Valentino bag hanging off her right arm and five lattes in her left hand, Alicia walked towards the big oak tree. Kristen and Dylan were waiting patiently for the other girls to arrive. Dylan saw Alicia approaching and quickly ran towards her.
"I've missed you so much!" Dylan practically screamed.
"Dyl, I saw you last night at Kris' house." Alicia giggled.
"I was talking to the lattes, but I missed you too." Dylan said while taking a latte for herself.
"Where's Massie and Claire?" Alicia asked.
"Massie should be here any second with Claire. Claire's parents took away her car privileges because she refused to drive Todd and his friends to the mall." Kristen informed her.
"Rough day! Oh look, here they come."
Massie and Claire walked towards the other girls. Alicia handed the two girls the remaining lattes.
"Thanks Leesh your a life saver." Massie said as she sipped her latte.
"Where are the guys?" Claire asked.
"Probably messing around with the freshmen boys." Kristen replied as she took out her phone to text Kemp. "According to Kemp, they are by the front doors."
The five girls began to walk towards the front of the school. Alicia studied Massie carefully. Sure Massie had the looks and the money, but so did Alicia. Alicia never understood what made Massie better. Alicia had the brains that Massie didn't and she didn't do drugs or drink. Alicia was the real life Blair Waldorf while Massie was Serena Vanderwoodsen. Just like Serena, Massie got everthing with the snap of her fingers while Alicia had to work for things like Blair. The PC was over the whole alpha thing but Massie's alpha ways would show sometimes. Alicia was fed up with Massie but didn't want to cause drama this year. Alicia was especially mad at Massie for not being there when Dylan needed the PC the most. Over the summer, Dylan entered a treatment center for girls with eating disorders. Alicia, Kristen, and Claire were there for Dylan through the whole process. Massie on the other hand was too busy partying with her summer fling, James. Massie saw Alicia watching her and became self conscious. The truth was that Massie was jealous of the other girls. They knew exactly what they wanted to do with their lives while Massie was pulling Serena Vanderwoodsen and deferring college for a year. She had no clue what she was going to do next year or which college she would attend the following year. Massie hoped she would figure it out by the end of the year.
Weschester Prep
Front Doors
7:30 a.m.
"So, do you guys get a lot of girls?" a curious freshman asked the guys.
"Of course we do! Have you seen us, we're amazing." Chris exclaimed.
"Every girl wants to get with us and I mean every girl even the teachers. What up Mrs.T." Kemp said while as Mrs. Taylor walked by. Cam and Josh both looked at their friend with disappointment while Derrick laughed till his sides hurt.
"Kemp you are seriously disturbed."
The boys whipped their heads around to see the PC. Massie smirked and walked up to Derrick giving him a quick peck on the lips. The other girls walked up to their respective boyfriends while Claire and Cam stood next to each other akwardly.
"Hey babe," Josh said pulling Alicia in for a kiss. The freshmen boys watched in awe.
"You guys can go now." Derrick said dismissing the freshmen.
"We'd better get to class before the bell rings." Dylan said pulling away from Chris' hug.
The group headed inside making a quick stop at their lockers. Josh, Alicia, Kristen, and Chris headed to AP Chemistry. Dylan and Claire headed to English while Cam and Kemp went to Pre-Calculus. Last but not least Massie and Derrick headed to study hall.
English Class
Dylan and Claire walked into English and took two seats towards the back of the room.
"So your mom is being a super control freak again." Claire asked.
"Yep, she keeps telling me how she wants me to prepare myself to take over the Daily Grind. I've told her many times I have other things planned for my future. I want to create an organization that helps people with eating disorders and helps raise awareness. I might even write a memoir." Dylan replied. " My mom is just so annoying. Her new boyfriend Paul is taking to Italy for a few days which means I'll be able to actually go home without worrying she's there."
"You guys should really go to therapy."
"We do, but my mom always acts fake and pretends to understand me. I just wish she would let me be myself for once. I mean why can't one of my sisters take over the Daily Grind! I'm pretty sure they would love to."
"Well, your mom probably picked you because you actually have brains unlike your sisters." Claire said with a smile.
"Thanks Clairebear, you always know what to say." Dylan said giving Claire a small wink as the teacher started class.
Claire thought about what Dylan said. Dylan was wrong about Claire knowing what to say. If that statement was true, Claire and Cam would still be Clam. She was too afraid to take the risk when Cam asked her to take him back after he dated Olivia. Her heart said one thing while her head said another. She wanted him back but she just didn't know how to go about asking him. Claire was afraid of being rejected by her one true love.
Study Hall
Massie and Derrick were in the library listening to music. Massie looked at Derrick closely. His hair fell right above his caramel eyes perfectly. Derrick saw her staring and smirked.
"Checking me out Block?"
"Why wouldn't I." Massie said giving Derrick a kiss.
"I love you Block."
"I love you too. Derrick, promise we won't grow apart next year." Massie said while looking straight into Derrick's eyes. "Everyone has their college plans set out except me. I have no clue what I want to do or where I want to be."
"Mass, we will never grow apart. As for where you want to be, you could come to Dartmouth with me. You can apply for the winter term." Derrick answered.
"Maybe, but I just don't know. I'm so confused." Massie said giving up. Derrick grabbed her hand and pulled her in for a much needed hug.
AP Chemistry
Alicia, Kristen, Josh, and Chris walked into the classroom immediatley heading towards the lab benches in the the back. Alicia and Josh in the lab bench all the way in the back while Chris and Kristen sat in the one in front of them. Kristen looked back at Alicia and Josh. Josh was playing Alicia's fingers while Alicia giggled silently. Kristen knew they were in love and nothing could split them up. She was truely happy for her best friend. Alicia deserved someone kind and thoughtful like Josh. Josh and Alicia's realtionship has been a wild rollercoaster since the beginning. They finally found stability and were not about to lose balance. Kristen felt a soft poke at her arm.
"Hey can I ask you something?" Chris said softly.
"Of course."
"I want to tell Dylan I love her. I have everything planned out and I just need to find the perfect necklace for her. Do you think you can help?"
"Don't sweat it, I'm sure Leesh will want to help too." Kristen said.
"Leesh will want to help with what?" Alicia said overhearing the conversation.
"I want to tell Dyl I love her and I need help finding a gift for her." Chris said again.
"Awww, of course we'll help."
"Whipped," Josh coughed.
"Oh please, if anyone is whipped it's you. Alicia has you on a leash." Chris retorted.
"It's true." Alicia said while holding an imaginary leash. Kristen cackled and Alicia burst into laughter.
"Settle down, I'm about to start class." the teacher said. Kristen and Chris turned around while Alicia pulled out her phone. Josh looked at Alicia and smiled. It was true, he was on a leash but he liked that leash. Alicia knew exactly what was good for him even if he doesn't realize it at first. She makes it clear that she won't date him if drinks or does drugs which is fine with him as long as he gets to be with her. He was the luckiest guy in the world. The one downside to dating Alicia Rivera was her dad. You do not want to piss off Len Rivera.
As promised the first chapter! Hope you like it. For some chapters I might put a little thing from Gossip Girl like saying "Spotted: Chris, Kristen, and Alicia at Tiffany's ..." Tell what you think and as always please review.
