A/N: Hey everyone here is chapter 3, and yes it is longer than the rest. Once again I don't own anybody except for the characters I make up.
Once I am in the cafeteria, I start to scan the faces of the whole place. I see people laughing and playing pranks on each other, but don't see the ones I am looking for. I am so determined that I don't even acknowledge what is going on around me. I almost tripped on objects that were in front of me, but that doesn't stop me. I keep on searching, until I see long blonde hair, in curls. I immediately walk over there, anger building up in me. I try to control myself but once I have my mind set on something, there is no stopping me.
Once I get near the table I see that there she is, "Miss Popular Princess." That is what Micah and I call her. Her name is Katie and I have been knowing her ever since the 3rd grade. The whole reason why we don't like her is because she is a snobby, spoiled brat, and she wants everything her way. She has always been like that because her parents are rich, and they spoil the mess out of her. She thinks that she runs every school she goes to. I mean school has been only in for a week and she is already popular. Well, by the freshmen, and even some of the sophomores and juniors like her already.
I don't know why people enjoy her, maybe because her family is rich. If you do anything that ticks her off, she will do anything to embarrass you, and make your school life miserable. Once when I was younger, I accidently spilled orange juice on her favorite plaid skirt, and the next day she spread rumors that I have some kind of contagious disease that can harm them. No one really talked to me for about a week or two, except for Micah, and some of my other friends. I am not afraid of her, but she always tries to act all innocent when she is in trouble. Just because she is the teachers' pet, I have to admit she is gorgeous, and of course she is popular.
She isn't the only one. Like in almost every show you watch, the popular girl always has a side kick. Katie has a best friend, Brooke, who kisses up to her, does and agrees on whatever she says. They can almost be sisters, but Katie is just more popular than Brooke is. Together they work as a team. I could go on and on about Katie and Brooke, but you already get the point. I was there all of those times when she got away with stuff. She wasn't going to get away with this, not this time. I am at "her table" (where she socialize and hangs during lunch) I see all of the people around her laughing. I come near Katie fast and bang my fist on the table, and immediately the laughter stops.
"What the heck is you problem?!" I ask boldly.
"Oohhh looks like Blue has a temper." She says with a smirk on her face.
" You know what I mean! I found Lilly in the old storage room unconscious!" Her face looked liked she is confused, yet a little shocked.
" Congratulations Blue... your officially psycho!" The crowd around her snickers and laughs.
" Yeah officially," Brooke says agreeing with her.
"Seriously I have no idea what your talking about." Katie continues.
" You might have everybody here fooled, but your not fooling me." I say looking into her eyes. Her boyfriend must have seen the commotion, because he comes up to the table. He is very tall, and good looking. If I recall he is a jock, more like a jerk to me.
" Hey Kate, is she bothering you?" He asks, giving her a quick kiss on the cheek. Kate is a stupid nickname he gave her.
" Yeah she is disturbing me, and accusing me of some nonsense! Please make her stop. She answered with a puppy dog look on her face. Ugh, I swear she is so full of herself! He then turns to face and look at me.
" Maybe you should go back where you came from, Kay?" He states.
"Maybe I don't want to sit down!" I say not even batting an eye. For some reason the table all break out with "ohhhh's."
" Look sweetheart, I don't know who your talking to-.."
I cut him off and say " I am talking to you!" Some guy from the table yells " Dude, you just got told!"
Before anybody else can say anything,I feel a hand on my shoulder, and see Micah by my side.
" Why don't you stay out of this...kay?" He says mocking Katie's boyfriend, which got the table fired up again with comments. Katie's boyfriend is looking pretty mad, and I know things are about to get a little ugly.
" Why don't you make me!" He tempts Micah, knowing that Micah can't sometimes control himself. I realize that it is unusually quiet, so I turn to see people looking dead at us. Oh great we are making a scene. Next thing you know the cafeteria is all in an uproar yelling the word fight over and over repeatedly. One of the cafeteria monitors breaks it up, even though we weren't fighting. Well Micah looked like he was going to. Once everyone has quiet down, she tells the rest of the cafeteria to carry on.
"This is so not over." Katie whispers heading back to her table. I storm off in the other direction, and exit the cafeteria. Once again she has gotten away with it again, but I'm not giving up yet. I hear the cafeteria doors open, and hear footsteps coming my way. I don't even bother to turn around because I know exactly who it is.
"Hey what was that about?" Micah asks from a distance.
"I can fight my own battles, I didn't need any help! I exclaim facing him. My body is burning with anger.
"Whoa whoa whoa, who said I was helping you?" He ask leaning against the wall.
"Oh than what do you call that you just did?"
"I was...standing up to a bully." He answers, smiling as if he is satisfied with his answer.
"Micah, this isn't time for jokes, this is serious." I say, the anger is subsiding, but now I am getting frustrated. His expression changes to a concern look, and he comes toward me.
"Meir what's going on?" He ask with concern in his voice. Meir is a nickname he calls me when he is worried or concerned about me. I sigh, and start to explain everything that happened in the storage room. Not leaving out a single detail, and continue to tell the story, until I conclude with the lunch scene.
"So you think Katie and Brooke are responsible for that?"
"No, I know they are responsible!" I insist
"C'mon Meir, we both don't like them, but don't you think this is a little bizarre? I mean how do you know if they did it?" I wasn't hurt that he didn't believe me, but it did seem kind of insane.
" You are going to have trust me on this one. Can we drop this right now because I am hungry?" I ask as I head back into the cafeteria because I am so hungry, and Micah follows. This was going to continue, just not now.
I start to relax and eat, until I get a note from the Principle saying to meet him in the principle office. Oh great, I think I am in trouble. I get up from the table, and tell Micah and my other friends that I will be right back. They all nod, and continue to go back to their conversations. It's okay I reassure myself, I just go in there, and explain what Katie did, and hopefully he will believe me. Finally, after all these years, Katie might get exposed for her doing. I reach the end of the hall, and I see the principle's door. How hard can this be right?
I knock on the door, and when I hear laughing, I open the door. I see that Katie is here, and she is telling the principle a funny story I guess. I want to cut down to business and get her busted.
"You wanted to see me Principle Jones?" I ask politely. He stops his laughing, and clears his throat. He is a very tall man, with a nice character, but when it comes down to business like me, he doesn't clown around.
"Ah yes Miss Blue, please take a seat." He says. I do as I am told, and I see that Katie is already siting down. Talking to both of us, he continues.
"I was told that there was a commotion in the cafeteria today, am I right?" We both say yes in agreement.
"Would you like to explain what happened?" Before I could answer Katie is already yapping away.
"Principal Jones, I was minding my own business, when Blue came to the table raged with anger, and started to accuse me right on the spot!" She is so over dramatic. I stop her to say " Principal Jones, I can explain." He looks, and nods at me if to say please do.
"Okay so before lunch there was in incident with one of the students, she was unconscious and barely breathing in the storage room." I keep explaining to him. His sharp eyes never leaving mine. Once I am done explaining what happened in the storage room, he gets up, and walks to the intercom.
"Lets just call her in shall we." He makes a public announcement asking for Lilly to come to the principal's office. Now I am glad I got a card instead of the announcement. Minutes passed by before Lilly came in, she looked scared. Then again I would be too if I was her. He told Lilly to sit, and she did. He asked her to explain what happened at the storage room.
"Well I was getting ready for the prep rally, when I heard a noise come from the storage room.I went to go look, and when I went inside, the door closed. I remember screaming for help, but that's it. The principal nods as in he understands.
"See the door could've closed by itself, or she probably tripped over it." Katie exclaims.
"No, the door was kind of heavy. More like you and Brooke pushed it closed!" I say getting louder. Cutting us off, Principal Jones clears his throat.
"Thank you Lilly, you may be excused now."
"So I can go back to class?" She asks. I see Katie rolls her eyes, and Principal Jones nods. She hurries up, and leaves the room.
"Miss Blue do you have any proof." That was my weak spot, yeah I had proof, my "gift." What was I thinking? How can I tell him that I saw Katie and Brooke do it? I saw a smirk come across Katie's face.
"No, but I just now they did-" He cuts me off.
"Did you see them do this" He didn't give me time to answer any of these questions. But he gives Katie all the time in the world.
" No sir." I answer, looking down.
"Then how can you accuse someone if you didn't see it, and don't have proof?" He asked. I didn't answer because I knew that this is a rhetorical question.
"I'm so sorry Miss Katie for bringing you in to trouble." He says apologetically, taking his glance off of me and on to her.
"It's it totally okay Principal Jones. I am just hoping that one day we can look past this, and Miracle and I can become friends." She says looking sorry. Principal Jones just smiles.
"I'm glad you are thinking positively about this. You are excused." Katie smiles, and walks out the room. Well so much for trying to get Katie exposed. Once again she has gotten away with something. He waited a second after she left, to continue.
"Miss Blue, the school year has just started, and you are already causing trouble." I was always taught that when an adult is talking, to listen and not interrupt. No matter how hard it is!
"Didn't you hear my message today in the rally?" He must didn't want me to answer that because he just continues on.
"This is your first, and finally warning. If I hear anything else from you about your nonsense, then there will be consequences. Am I understood?" For some reason when he stares at me, his eyes are like piercing into my heart.
"Yes sir, it won't happen again." Was all I could think of because this is so wrong. I am telling the truth, and he doesn't believe me.! I would've kept defending myself, but there would be no reason to waste my breath.
"Good, you are excused now." I get up quickly and leave. How can he not believe me? Besides the fact of no proof. I just failed my accuse. As I am walking out into the hall, I am immediately pinned up against the lockers. Their hand covering my mouth. It happened all so fast, but I managed to get a glimpse of who it is. To my surprise I see Katie. A million questions ran up to my head, but they are stopped when she speaks.
Her voice is low and cold. "I don't know how you figured out what happened, but stay out of my way... or else. BTW, this is still not over!
After she says that, she kicks me somewhere in the leg, which causes me to fall to the quickly as she came, when I looked up, she disappeared. For a second I thought I was imagining this, until I felt the pain of my leg. She leaves me on the ground shocked, with questions still in my head. When did Katie learn to do that, I never knew Katie could do this! Katie has a darker side than her dark side? But the biggest question of all she leaves me with is: What have I gotten myself into?
A/N: Hope you liked Chapter 3, I really enjoyed writing this because, I surprised myself with a twist secret: Katie being darker than she is...that wasn't planned. Anyway let me know what you guys think, and how I can make it better! I really would like more reviews, because it helps motivate me. Thanks for reading, and more to come soon. :) PLZ REVIEW!
