MATH ROOM

Tuesday September 19th

8:09 PM

"" Massie's annoyingx10 math teacher beamed.

"Yeah?" She asked as she strutted towards her seat.

"Where have you been?"

"I was informed that you had gotten a call that I was going to be late. Am I wrong?"

"No but I wo-"

"Then the rest is my business." She smirked and then sat down next to Derrington.

"Nice work Block. I have tried pissing him off before and its not that easy."

"Just walk in late without an excuse."

"Or be a C student." He smirked at Massie and she punched him.

Claire: ? did they want and ? were they

Massie: long story don't wanna txt it but plz don't bring it up cuz I cant tell C, L, L but I can tell u

Claire: k, tty lunch

Massie: Table 18

Claire: Done

Massie: Yay!

"So, you coming to our soccer practice today? Sam said he wanted you to come."

"Your kidding right?"

"What?" Derrington asked seriously confused.

"I'm on the Sirens."

"WHAT!?!?!" Derrington yelled.

", is there something that you would like to share with us?"

"Umm no." He giggled "So your seriously on the team?"

"Yup!" Massie grinned. "I can practically hear the announcer at my first game. 'Captain of BOCD's soccer team Massie Block steals the ball from the opposing team and dribbles it down the field. Passes it to Kristin Gregory out of desperation who shoots and…misses! The goalie threw it to number 34 who missed it and Massie Block took it and again dribbled it down to the goalie. She fakes the pass and then shoots and…SCORES THE WINNING GOAL!'"

"Wow, no joke your really good at announcing."

"Yeah, tell that to Alicia." She mumbled.

"I will" He smirked and took out his new Iphone (from Dylan of course). Massie scooted closer to see what he was texting.

Derrington: Massie is a really good announcer

Alicia: ? do I care?

Derrington: Cuz u hav serious competition foo!

Alicia: I don't think so

Derrington: Watch and learn

Alicia: u don't seriously think im scared do u?

Derrington: well u shud be

Alicia: y?

Derrington: Cuz im about 2 do sumthing that will make u regret the convo we just had!

Alica: WHAT R U DOING!?

Derrington: Adios!

Alicia:

"What are you going to do?" Massie asked.

"Just watch." He winked and then raised his hand,

"Yes Derrick?"

"I have to go to the office to pick something up."

"Very well, hurry back."

"It's a project and it would be better if someone could help me carry it." He tried

"Claire, you may go with Derrick." Claire looked hopelessly at Massie and Derrington.

"Umm, Massie is my partner so could she help?"
"Massie?" He asked.

"Yeah?" She asked, pretending like she hadn't been paying attention.

"Would you like to escort Derrick to the office, to his locker, and back?"

"I doubt I have a choice." She mumbled.

"What was that?"

"Oh, umm, sure." She faked a smile and then walked off to the office.

"What are you doing?" Massie demanded

"Taking Alicia's announcer job and giving it to you." He smirked.

"Why?" Massie asked, having a party in her head because he actually wanted to do something for her.

"Cause your so much better than her and I'd rather listen to you." Right then they walked into the office.

"How may I help you?" The school secretary asked both Massie and Derrington.

"Umm, we would like to speak to Principal Burns, if possible."

"Indeed." She said. After a quick phone call with Burns, she said "Go ahead in." and then opened the door for them.

"Thanks." Derrington mumbled.

"Hello Derrick. Massie." Her eyes searched them both for reasons as to why they were there.

"Hey. Umm we- well I was wondering if there is a possibility of getting a new official announcer…" Derrington tried.

"Depends. I do have to say I have been disappointed with what I have been hearing over the loud speaker and most of all what time I hear it." Burns said with frustration in her voice.

"Well, I thought that Massie was perfect for the job, and she is always on time for EVERYTHING." He pushed Massie forward.

"Ms. Block, I believe this involves you more than Derrick here, so what do you think?" She questioned.

"I would be honored to do the announcements Ms. Burns." Massie politely stated.

"Alright then, lets interview you." Massie quickly flashed Derrington a Thank-you-soooo-much-whatever-you-want-you-got-it look. "What do you think is the most important thing about the announcements?"

"Giving students the important information that they need to hear, and give it to them when they expect it, which would be 8:00 A.M. and 12:00 P.M. in this case…" Massie put a wide smile on her face.

"Good." Principal Burns looked impressed. "Why do you want to have this job, which is very important?"

"I think that I have a talent that I would hate to be wasted, and I like to be the first one to inform people about upcoming events and news." Massie proudly sat up straight.

"Very impressive Massie, I also think you would be a perfect fit for this job. We will announce your new job this afternoon at lunch-time."

"Thank you so much! I wont disappoint you!" Massie quickly ran out of the room followed by Derrington.

NEW GREEN CAFE

Tuesday September 19th

12:00 PM

Alicia stumbled into the office for her lunch-time announcements. Right there, before her eyes stood.... the enemy.

"?" Principal Burns chirped.

"Yeah?" She replied not taking her eyes off of Massie for a split second.

"We have a change of plans..." Alicia snuck a quick breath.

"And?" Alicia challenged.

"Andd" Principal Burns continued "We have all decided, as an office, that it would be better if Massie continued the announcements for the rest of the year."

"WHAT!?!?!?!" Alicia shrieked. "That is so nawt fair! What have I done wrong? How much money do you want? This is my-" She was cut off by Burns' evil glare.

"This is not a matter of money Ms. Rivera."

"Then what is it a matter of? This is my job!" She continued the rage. "You cant just hand it over t-t-to ASSIE!" She sobbed.

"Detention! And Massie will continue the announcements, now leave before I increase your punishment!" Principal Burns reddened while Alicia stomped out of the room. "Massie." Burns went on, here are the announcements for now." She handed them to Massie and then huffed into her office.

"Heyyy BOCD! This is Massie Block with your twelve o' clock announcements! First off, both soccer teams will compete in the pre-season battle against other soccer teams who have made it to the playoffs last season. Good luck Sirens and Tomahawks! Stay updated this whole week to be aware of the back-to-school dance, prom themed! You can nawt nawt nawt! Enter without a date; we will have photographers at the door. To pay for this dance we are having a fundraiser Wednesday, tomorrow. It is $20 per person, there will be a bake sale, and we will have students put on a fashion show. Staring in this fashion show will be Alicia Rivera, Olivia Ryan, Amy Hollarwitz, Katie Lafher, and Leena Parsons. Their outfits will be selected from the Ralph Lauren spring 09' collection. Be there, or be out! TTYL!" Massie quickly signed off and ran into the café to see her fans. But as she entered she saw a big crowd of people surrounding table 22. She pushed pass many glaring faces to see Alicia sitting with her head on the table, tears in her eyes.

"Hey Assie! Go away!" Olivia Ryan shrieked while patting Alicia's back.

"Umm, Olivia?"

"What? You wanna steal my nose?"

"Are you in Metro Station?" Massie beamed.

"Don't answer her Liv." Alicia mumbled, too quiet for Olivia to hear.

"No, why?"

"Then don't tell me what to do." Massie grabbed Claire and started walking away.

"Massie." Claire said blankly.

"What?" Massie nearly screamed with a red face.

"Stealing Kristin's soccer-star status and Dylan's boyfriend was mean enough. Did you really have to go and steal Alicia's announcements?"

"Umm, yeah Kuh-laire. And when are you gonna learn that 8th grade is gonna be war, and you cant just lay back and let yourself get shot" Massie questioned.

"Well I guess I do still have to learn that, because I'm out of Hawties from Hell. And out of this friendship. She tore off her Juicy-friendship-charm bracelet from Massie and threw it on the ground. Then she ran over to Alicia, grabbed her hand, and led her to the bathroom. And that was the end to that.
