Massie Block smirked, looking and feeling beautiful. Thanks to Jakkob, her hair stylist, her hair was sleek and glossy and curled at the ends, making her caramel highlights pop. She'd changed her make up routine, and applied on darker eye shadow, making her amber eyes look more noticeable and wider. She wore soft pink lip gloss and layered it with a red lip gloss, when they mixed they made her lips look fuller and more plump. Of course, the make up was water proof. But still, she looked so older, so mature, like a natural beauty. Even Claire, her first ever member of her new clique, looked fabulous. Massie made her go blank canvas, wearing no make up except for bright red lip stick. Of course, Claire refused and settled for a nice clear gloss and pale green eye shadow, and she still looked pretty. They both wore designer bathing suits, and looked like alpha's and felt like them after a nice, relaxing visit to Massie's in home spa.
Massie licked the frozen yogurt off her finger, and grinned, "I love frozen yogurt," She commented, while flipping through the latest issue of Teen Vogue. Claire, agreed and practically gobbled down her yogurt, licking the tiny glass bowl clean, "Ha, you look stupid," Claire replied with a shrug, and continued licking her bowl, and grabbed a second bowl, licking that one clean as well.
"That was good," Claire let out a sigh, and patted her flat tummy, "Hope I don't gain too much pounds," She giggled.
"Pig," Massie snorted, "Oink, Oink," She tilted her head back, supressed with laughter. She took a quick draft of her lemonade, then bit into some sushi. "Dee-lish," She smiled, leaning back in her lounge chair. Suddenly, her phone began to sing: Single Ladies. "Ugh," She groaned and picked up her phone, and pressed ignore call, "So annoying,"
Claire raised her eyebrows, "Who was it," She asked, putting on some chapstick and then smacking her lips together. "And why are they so annoying," She giggle-asked, trying to lighten the mood by imitating Massie's irritated voice.
"Probably Kristen," Massie shrugged, "She's been calling me all week, trying to apologize probably," She scoffed, "But, she ditched me for the geek squad and that was her own choice, not my problem anymore," Massie snapped, dabbing her forehead with her plush, purple towel.
"Maybe you should give her a chance to explain," Claire suggested, "I mean, what if something urgent came up, or, or her mom wouldn't let her go, I mean we all now Mrs. Gregory and she's strict," She scoffed for effect, "Mass, you need to give her another chance -" Massie interrupted.
"Don't even try that little game with me Claire," Massie barked, "If something that urgent came up, she would've called. And don't try to back up Alicia, or Dylan either. Alicia chose that cheer squad, and Dylan chose Derring- I mean Derrick. We all chose our sides, now it's your turn," Massie folded her arms around her chest angrily. If Claire left her, she'd have no one. "It's either me, or them," She said 'them' like she'd say dog poo.
Claire groaned, "You," She grumbled. "But still," She gave up, and threw her hands in the air, sending her multiple bangal bracelets, borrowed from Massie, flying behind her. Claire gasped, then Massie let out a chuckle. Claire laughed along, and soon they were doubled over laughing on the hard cement.
Massie caught her breath, and spoke: "Who's ready to swim?"
Claire shook her head, "I'm pretty cold, and I have make up on," She said, "I'd look like a clown if I set foot in that water. Plus, I don't want to end up blow drying my hair, my hair's hard to control when wet," She muttered, climbing back on her chair.
Massie groaned, she wouldn't take no for an answer. So, she grabbed Claire's arm and dunked her into the pool, following behind with a cannonball. Claire roared with laughter, and skipped out of the pool and turned on Massie's iHome. Dancing back into the pool, Claire couldn't stop laughing while Massie swished her hips making the water crash into mini waves.
Shut up and put your money where your mouth is
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Get up and shake the glitter off your clothes now
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Massie belted out the lyrics, while acting them out with Claire. Then it hit her, without the Pretty Committee, freedom was hers. She could change herself, and do whatever. Become a whole new alpha, a better alpha. "Claire," Massie grinned, "This is the start of a whole new era, and it's going to be a good one,"
A/N:: I really like this chapter, it's fun and it's a way to explain that Massie doesn't miss the Pretty Committee, yet. By the way, I had an old user but something went wrong with it so a few parts of this story might sound familiar. I'm doing Alicia's chapter next, and it might include Josh, not sure yet. But, just wait and see..or should I say: Wait & Read? Cheesy, I know I am. R&R Looking for 5 reviews!
XOXO,
