Sup! Playing basketball yesterday and had piano...so i'm sorry i didn't update earlier
Here's the fourth chapter :)
"Hey! Over here, Max!"calls a frantic boy at Fang's table.
I glance over then share a look with Lissa. She winks. "Go get 'em, tiger,"she teases.
I walk over, plastering a grin on to my face. "'Sup, people,"I greet.
Fang introduces everyone. The dark haired, Hispanic girl is Ella, his sister. The blond, blue-eyed boy is Zane, or Gazzy. The strawberry-blond with blue eyes is Iggy, Gazzy's brother. The blond girl with blue eyes is Angelica. The caramel-blond girl with brown eyes is Crystal. Rae, a girl with long dark curls and dark-ish blue eyes, waves at me. Logan is the boy with greenish-blue eyes and darkish brown hair
They look cheerful and happy.
"So whatcha guys talking about?"I ask, smiling.
Iggy replies, "Oh, I'm just explaining what 69 means...ya know."
I stare about, a horrified expression on my face. "SAY WHAT?"I ask.
Fang glares at Iggy and slaps his back. Iggy cracks up, then falls to the floor.
"FANGY POO! My back...oh, my poor, innocent back...I'm dying...Maximum, save me...please, have mercy! NOOOO!"he screams dramatically.
"Ewww!"Ella cries, wrinkling her nose.
I roll my eyes. What the hell?
"You're a moron,"I say, smiling. Iggy sits up and glares at me. "Geez, I love you, too,"he says, huffing dramatically. I laugh. Hilarious Iggy. Ella hugs Angel, giggling.
Zane high-fives Gazzy. I share a look with Fang that says, "these are your friends?"
He shrugs, smirking.
Iggy shakes his head and looks at me. "No, we were talking about favorite bands. I'm going for 'The Fray'. Ella is for 'One Direction'. Angel is for 'The Script', Gazzy is for 'Breaking Benjamin', Crystal is for 'Paramore', Rae is for 'Capital Cities', Logan is for 'Cobra Starships', and Fang is for 'Aerosmith'. You?"
I smile. "I like your band choices...but Coldplay or Nirvana. I'm not sure which,"I reply without a second thought.
In truth, I really do listen to all of the bands. I am a super Aerosmith fan, and I do love The Fray and The Script.
"Lost and insecure...you found me, you found me. Lying on the floor...surrounded, surrounded..."Gazzy hums.
I can see that he loves The Fray a lot.
Playing the Game...it's harder and more manipulative than the girls get credit for. The Popular girls anaylze everything, notice everything. The Game is difficult. If you play your cards right, you just MIGHT complete it perfectly. The thing is-the Game has turned into a contest. Not only who can break up with the guy, but also breaking up with him in the most embarrassing way ever.
That's what I don't know how to do. Sure, I've played the game. Sam, Austin, and Lark. All unfortunate. The years I actually play the Game, I always won. Embarrassing people, I excelled at.
As we debated, my eyes drift to everyone. Angel will be the hardest to convince that I am a friend and that I truly care for Fang. Time to act, big time.
I really don't have to act, though. Fang's friends are amazing, nice, and funny. I fit in perfectly.
Brigid stands up on the table, screams, and shouts for everyone's attention. "OK, hello. I'm Brigid, as you all know, cheerleading squad. So, today, we're going to play a game. Which bitch should get kicked out of the popular group!"she says, smiling wickedly and meeting my gaze with a wink.
She points at me. "Nice, trustworthy, tells me everything, amazing friend."
She points at Lissa. "Nice, scores guys ALL the time, great cheerleader, delicate, awesome."
She points at Tessa. "Super cool, amazing, got my boyfriend and me together, great dancer."
She points at Cataleya. "Awesome, not bitchy, good friend, and I can count on her not to steal my boyfriends."
She points to Dede. "Cool name, patient, nice, always compliments me."
She looks at Maya, a sneer on her face. Hands on hips she says. "Oh, and, I forgot, MAYA. Biggest bitch in the universe. Dating my boyfriend right now, made out with gross old old old guys, goes on dates with our RIVAL school's SENIOR guys, caught in the guys' locker rooms, and lied behind my back. Not trustworthy, awesome, cool, or amazing. Biggest slut and whore in the universe."she finishes.
Maya is staring at Brigid in horror, color drained from her face.
"So who should I kick out?"she asks, grinning victoriously.
I stand up on the table I'm at and scream, "BOOO MAYA KICK HER TO THE CURB KICK HER TO THE CURB KICK HER TO THE CURB!"
Everyone joins me, and Lissa is clapping and grinning at me. Brigid gives me a grateful look as Maya storms out of the cafeteria. As the noise dies down, Brigid calls out, "Oh yeah, Riley, can't believe you would date such a bitch. Guys, who should I not date?"
"RILEY RILEY RILEY RILEY RILEY RILEY!"
Riley stands up slowly and walks out of the cafeteria, face red.
Everyone cheers. After that, everything is back to normal.
And, honestly, I realized something.
"So then I was like, bitch, who you talkin' to? Me or that pig-girl next to you?"
That's what I would usually hear at the girls' table. But at this table...gosh, everything was just so random.
"Pineapple and sausages on pizza is the best!"
"My milkshakes bring all the boys..."
"The Cup Song is sooo annoying!"
"I hated how Anna Kendricks had to say Robert Pattinson was hot. Oh my god, I was barfing in my mouth."
"Shut up. Nobody cares if you're disgusted by Mr. I-Am-A-stupid-kid-who-picks-my-nose-everyday. I don't wanna hear the details. It's gross."
"What the hell did you drink last night? Strawberry flavored vodka?"
"I just watched that one episode about the bear hosting a party and talking to Princess Bubblegum last night."
(A/N: know what I'm talking about? Then you rock. :) )
"Miley Cyrus is a complete psycho now. OMG she is some crazy girl now."
"It would be so awesome to wear a meat tux to the dance."
I love the randomness.
"FANG MUST ASK MAX OUT TO THE DANCE!"
Oh, forget I said that.
My head snaps up. "What!"I exclaim, searching for the person who says this, which just happens to be Fang's sister, Ella.
Fang glares at her.
"Um...yeah, you should,"Rae says.
Fang shifts his gaze to Rae to glare at her. Then Crystal, who says the same thing.
"ASK THE GIRL. ASK THE GIRL. ASK THE GIRL."Iggy chants, which gets our whole table chanting. The cafeteria falls silent, and then, because people are stupid and shallow and want to be mainstream even if they have no idea what is going on, they chant, too.
Soon, no one is saying anything else but those three words.
Fang's face is slightly red. He succumbs from the pressure and blurts out, "Max, will you go to the Winter Masquerade with me."
At first, I stare at him like he's crazy, and Iggy starts saying, "SAY YES SAY YES SAY YES."
Then I laugh and nod, giving Fang an affectionate slap. "Hello! I was waiting since forever for you to ask!"I say. Cheesiest line of my life.
Ella and Iggy clap, and everyone follows. They shout and whoop until the cafeteria ladies yell at them to shut up.
Fang is pink, and I feel like I'm blushing too. That was embarrassing. Then the perfect embarrassing break-up came to me. I smile evilly. Oh, I am pure evil. I am awful. Just horrible.
Cafeteria, mainstream people, chanting.
Fang would be so embarrassed. I mean, this is the first time he's ever been. Even when he proclaimed his love, he wasn't this embarrassed.
Lunch ends quickly, not like how it usually drags on forever with the popular girls'.
I seriously love these people. How could I ever hurt their best friend?
I look at them, laughing and smiling and cracking jokes. Then I look at Lissa. She's trying to be so cool and stoic. I know she hates it. I grin. I think it's time to change. Lissa and I hate the popular people, but it's like there is a code for us to be all quiet and talk about shoes and which Gucci sunglasses make my face look fat.
I sigh, flopping down into a chair in my class.
As I watch my teacher begin his boring lecture.
Yay.
