It's been a week since she had last talked to Danny, the last thing she ever heard or more got from him was a text saying "Jo is cool with talking to us, we should meet up" , but she didn't know what to respond to that, she just needed time for herself. How was she supposed to talk to Jo, knowing that she had feelings for Danny too? She would see Jo with Tyler in the school hallways, but she knew that Jo was heartbroken; she's in love with Danny. She didn't know what to do.
As she drove herself to school, she gets a text from Sarita telling her they will wait for by the student lounge. Lacey parks her car and stays in for a while, gathering up the books she just threw in the passenger seat. As she is about to turn to open her car door she hears a loud bang and pounding on her window, her mouth stays completely open. She gets out of her car gracefully because although she is wearing black panty hose with her skirt, she doesn't want show anything. She holds her books tight with one arm and shuts the door with the other.
"What the hell was that?" Lacey looks serious frowning her eyebrows but also somewhat worried.
Archie glares at her, "Are you happy now? … Because of YOU I'm out of school!"
She doesn't hold back and throws a deep glare at him "Because of me? You can't be serious right? …. I wasn't the one who poisoned my team mate and blamed someone else."
" Ha! Lacey, you're so in and over your head ….. How is your little socio boyfriend? Having good times? Any more sex tapes?" he remarks crossing his arms, enjoying what he was saying.
"You think you're so tough right? … But you know what? You're weak. It's actually kind of sad" Lacey says getting close to his face.
"I'm weak? Oh man, I'm not the bitch who fell for her best friends killer's words" Archie is furious.
"Watch what you call me … I don't know what I ever saw in you." Lacey says in disbelief, squinting her eyes. "You got expelled .. .You got what you deserve" Lacey tries to make her way out of the confrontation. He pulls her from the arm "You're gonna pay for this, you and your socio boyfriend" Archie tells her with menacing eyes.
Lacey pushes him off, "What are you going to do? More moth balls?" , rolling her eyes, she walks away. She had never seen him so angry like this before. She wished none of this would have ever happened.
As she walks inside school, she already against time to even go meet with her friends, she decides to just head to class. She stops by the girls bathroom first, she walks in and sees Jo and that girl from the math athletes club. She licks her lips and smiles "Hi" .
"Hey" Jo replies. "So um, I talked to Danny, we are gonna meet at the Fort after school today, if you want to come" she continues.
She had plans with Sarita and Phoebe after school. "Oh. Um ….. I had some things to do after school… but .. "
"Of course you do. You don't have to come, it's cool, some other time" Jo interrupts her with a fake smile.
"I wasn't finished, I'll be there, just a little bit later, is that fine?" Lacey says with somewhat of an attitude.
Jo frowns her eyebrows "That's fine. No rush Lacey, we know your always … busssssy" she fake smiles again.
The bell rings. "Alright see you later" Lacey walks out of the bathroom as well as Jo and the girl from the math athletes club, Lacey doesn't remember her name.
School ends. She's waiting by her car for Sarita and Phoebe; they were suppose to go to the new Smoothie place. Lacey seems them walking towards her, Phoebe waves. "Hey were have you've been I've been waiting out here for like ten minutes". She remarks
"Relax Lacey, we had to get our stuff from our lockers" Phoebe says cheerfully.
"What's the rush?" Sarita crosses her arms and lifts her eyebrows. "Nothing I just have things to do after." Lacey gets in her car.
….
The girls are sitting at the new smoothie place. "So what do you have to do after?" Phoebe asks as she sips on her vanilla chocolate smoothie.
"I um …-" Lacey starts.
"You're gonna meet with your old friends" Sarita answers for her.
Lacey looks at her. "I saw you coming out of the bathroom with Jo, is that why you stood us up at the student lounge?"
"I didn't stand you guys up …I was held up, Archie came to school today" Lacey answers truthfully.
"WHAT?! He came to school?" Phoebe almost chokes.
Lacey nods her head. "He isn't allowed on school grounds though?" Sarita asks worried.
"He can get Arrested!" Phoebe yelps. Sarita shushes Phoebe.
"Well obviously he didn't care, he banged on my car window and pretty much blamed me for his expulsion" Lacey continues.
"Wow! … Draaaammmmmaaa" Phoebe drinks her smoothie. Sarita rolls he eyes "He's an idiot, don't listen him to him Lace" she insures her friend.
* After dropping her friends off at Sarita's home, Lacey drives herself to the fort, where she is suppose to meet with her two formal childhood best friends.
