NEW GREEN CAFE

Thursday September 21st

12:15 AM

Claire spent all of her lunch period ignoring Strawberry and Kori, while staring at her boyfriend Cam relax, probably thinking about his mystery girl. She knew that it was wrong to suspect him because the last time that happened he broke up with her, and if they broke up again she was sure it would be for good.

Alicia left the table and went to do her announcements. While Claire was stuck talking about the Periodic Table of The Elements with the buttkissers.

This year is gunna rock.

"Good afternoon BOCD! This is Alicia Rivera, back with your lunchtime announcements. 1st up, the prom themed dance is tomorrow night, so grab your cuh-yutest option and compete for a chance for prom king and queen. Sorry 7th graders, this doesn't apply to you. The Sirens have their first pre-season tournament game tonight so if you see them wish them luck. The Tomahawks will dominate on Saturday, so be sure to come to both games and cheer on your classmates. That's all! This has been Alicia Rivera for BOCD saying, I heart you!"

Crap! Claire thought. She was thinking about the dance tomorrow night and how she and Cam would have to go together. She wasn't sure if she was ready, there was a mystery girl on the loose, and Claire was on the case. Her thought was immediately interrupted when she got a text from her mom.

Mom: Hey Claire Bear! When you get home today you'll be all alone until I get home, I'm working and your father is bringing Todd to a Jets game. Love you! Love Mom =)

What? Claire thought. He went to the game yesterday and I'm pretty sure he's going tomorrow….

Massie.

"Hey Leesh, can I talk to you in private for a sec." She glared at Massie.

"Uh Claire, do we look like news reporters?"

"Umm no…" Claire said blankly knowing what was in store for her.

"Then there's no need to talk in private. I mean, whatever you say to Leesh she's gunna tell us." Massie smirked.

"Okay then, Leesh, Massie has been paying Todd to spy on us." She said to Alicia while looking at Massie.

"Umm, Claire, are you serious?"

"Yes Massie I am serious, you've been paying him with season tickets to the Jets."

"I admit it."

"What?!" Alicia shrieked.

"I was saying, that yes I did give him the tickets but that was so he would stop bugging me to play video games, and now that he's always at the games he's 100% out of my hair." She smiled proudly.

"Ehmagawd! Genius!" Alicia high-fived Massie. "Wait, Kuh-laire, you just made that whole thing up to get us mad at Massie didn't you." Massie and Alicia both glared at her.

Claire's face turned the color of a tomato. "N-n-n-no! Todd's been going to all of the games and Massie knew how to get you guys to be her friends again." Claire yelled.

"Uh Kuh-laire, I gave him the tickets and I just naturally flatter people." Massie smiled which just threw Claire off the edge because by this point she was sure that Massie was lying.

"UGH!" She screamed loud enough for the entire lunchroom to turn and look.

"Wow Claire, cool it." Cam said playfully.

"No I will nawt 'cool it' Mr. Two timer!"

"What are you talking about Claire?" He looked truly concerned, but by this point she had already blown it so there was no point correcting herself.

"I'm talking about how you were talking about dumping me for another girl!"

"Oh god not this again. Claire, you have no idea what I was talking about and you have it all wrong." He started off sweetly.

"And is everything about our relationship secretive? Because I remember before when suspected something was going on with Nikki when nothing was and now this…god Claire stop snooping!" He screamed and stomped off with all 7th and 8th grade eyes on him.

"Nice going Kuh-laire." Dylan snarled.

"Guess that's out que." Derrington said holding up his phone for only Massie to see. "Come on guys," He pointed to Josh, Kemp, and Plovert. "See ya later Block." And he was off without a single hand wave for Dylan.
