79.) "It's amazing the clarity that comes with psychotic jealousy." (The Line Up / Chapter 7ish)

Bronwyn paced around her room nervously. After speaking to Drew, she was thrown into a weird spin of unusual mental unclarity. Hesitantly, she dialed Lucy's number, hoping her friend would pick up, but also a bit afraid of what she would say.

"Hey, B, what's up?"

"Where are you right now?"

"Just heading back from class, anything going on?"

"Umm, I called Drew."

"Why?"

Bronwyn cringed at Lucy's tone of voice, and furthermore, actually didn't know the answer to the question. She had convinced herself it had been for a number of other reasons, but when it came down to it…she was still a bit confused and pissed off with Drew's response. Wasn't he supposed to be the more mature one?

"I don't know."

"Bronwyn…"

"Okay, fine, I think I might have feelings for Tony."

"Clarke?"

"Yes…"

"Anything that prompted this turn?"

Bronwyn was grateful Lucy was choosing to ignore the fact that calling her ex-boyfriend was probably a bad decision. The drumline Captain gritted her teeth and thought back. She had never really been a jealous person. Although everyone had always made fun of her temper (being a redhead had its disadvantages), she really hadn't played to the stereotype. However, reviewing her season so far, her intensified feelings for Tony did seem to originate with Kylie and her unbelievably frustrating niceness.

The senior sank down on her bed, sighed, and said, "It's amazing the clarity that comes with psychotic jealousy."

AN: Just working out some complicated emotions for Bronwyn… Given all the extra stuff I've done for The Line Up, I'm probably overdue for another edit on the story.
