Seaford High Cafeteria

Friday, September 14th, 2012

Eddie smiled proudly as he hung up one of his posters on the cafeteria walls about his band auditions that he was holding next week in the choir room. He was really excited for the auditions because he really thinks that this is the perfect opportunity for him to boost his cred at this school because for now he is a nobody. Granted yeah when he first entered the school he was in middle school but now he's a freshman in high school and he wants people to know him like how everyone knows Jack, Kim, and the Elite. When he gets his band together and they'll rock then people will know him by how he's an amazing singer and then Grace will fall madly in love with him and they'll rule all of ninth grade. At the thought of Grace, a lovesick sigh escaped his lips, he'll admit it he's madly in love with the brunette who wouldn't be? She's from a middle- class family, beautiful, smart, sweet (no matter what Kim says), and part of the founding families of Seaford. After the founder of Seaford; Wilmer Miller got attacked by wolverines in 1808 and the whole battle of Seaford Hill four families; the Millers, Overland, Chung, and Wolfe, one being the relatives of Wilmer moved onto the empty land and created a small town.

Now he only needs to come up with a way to woo her so she'll fall putty in his arms and he'll be accepted into the Elite. That'll be trouble though since he has to experience with girls the only wooing he ever did was for his Mother's on Mother's Day and her birthday.

"Hey Eddie." The ginger haired teen greeted him as entered the cafeteria doors

"Hey Milton, so what you think?"

Milton gave him a quizzical look, "About.." He ventured

"About my flyer on the wall in front of you." Eddie impatiently told him

"Oh um you got the music you got the beat then meet Eddie Jones in the music room at 3 September 20th." Milton read with an arched brow

Eddie grinned "Its cool right?"

"It's something." Milton said delicately

"Also I was wondering if you would please, please, please agree to be in my band." Eddie pleaded, doing his best puppy dog eyes impression

Milton eyed him in bemusement, "Why do you want me to be in your band?"

"Because next to Kim, you're the only other musical friend I have. She sadly said no so I need you. You play the keyboard really good like at remember the seventh-grade talent show."

Kim is actually a really great singer. She doesn't display her singing abilities a lot because her main focus is split between gymnastics and karate. She also didn't think she had that good of a voice so most of the singing she does is in private. She occasionally sings in public but it's every now and then and not a usual thing. Eddie keeps urging the girl to join the school's choir and sing more publicly but she shuts him down. The girl even writes her own songs but she threatened to castrate him if he even thinks of reading her songs or ask her to show him them. So that was that.

Milton sighed and scratched his hair,"Eddie you know I'm already in a full schedule as it is with football tryouts, the election, the clubs I'm joining and my two AP classes." The Scottish teen listed

"Say no more I'll help you with the election, I'll be your campaign manager."

"I'm not really sure that's a good idea." Milton slowly declined

"C'mon why wouldn't it be? I'm a great task organizer I'm a leader explorer scout and my troup leader said so as well as my mom."

"Yeah and I'm sure that you are but-"

"Please just trust me when have I ever lead you astray?"

"I can think of many times."

"Well okay the past is in the past." The yellow belt dismissed

"C'mon Milton please if you don't think I can do it on my own then Julie can watch over me and we can be like co campaign managers I already can come up with so many different ideas for your campaign." Eddie pleaded and Milton still looked unconvinced but he seemed to be slowly cracking

"I already asked her and she's more than likely won't do it. She's busy with her own stuff." Milton doubted

"Well I'll be doing all the heavy lifting, all she'll have to do is supervise. If you tell her that then I bet she'll agree. Since she's your girlfriend and supports your what that word is end- something."

"Endeavour"

"Yeah that word she supports your endeavor."

The fifteen-year-old sighed in defeat, "If you can get Julie on board then fine I guess I'll join your band with condit-"

"Thank you man I knew you were my best friend for a reason!" Eddie exclaimed causing the teen to roll his eyes in exasperation

"Yeah well let's move get away from the door and get some breakfast."

"Good idea." The yellow belt agreed as he followed the fifteen-year old to the breakfast line

The two grabbed their choice of food as they talked amongst themselves about the election and campaign ideas. Once they paid they left the line when he saw to go find a table to sit, once their task was completed a familiar laugh drew Eddie's attention. A few tables away was Grace at a table with Lyndsey, Brett, and Lorie.

"Eddie did you hear what I said?"

"Look it's Grace."

"Then I'll take that as a no." Milton muttered to himself with an eye roll

"She looks so beautiful." Eddie crooned; her flowy baby blue skirt a few inches short of the knee showed off her legs while complementing the white short sleeve shirt she paired with it finishing it off with a pair of beige ankle boots.

"You should really stop staring before it gets creepy." Milton advised him but it went on deaf ears

Grace was right there a few feet away from him and he was at lost as to what to do, he dreamed of finally being able to make his move on the girl but now that she's here he was at lost as to what to do. Dreaming and reality was a whole different thing and all he could do was bask in her beauty.

"Eddie." Milton called out drawing his attention, the boy in call looked back over to him, honestly he forgot that he was here

"Yeah?"

"Why don't you go over and talk to her?" Milton asked as he opened his milk carton

"T-talk to her?" The boy in question stuttered out, the idea seeming to scary for him to consider

"Yeah I mean it's better than staring creepily at her."

"B-but she's busy right now talking I don't want to interrupt her or anything."

"Eddie you've been talking it up about how you're going to woo her so now is your chance, go."

"Okay, okay you're right I can do this." The yellow belt tried to convince himself as he nodded his head, he can do this he's Edward George Jones a playa he can do this.

"Good now go on get up and make your move." The Scottish teen urged

"Yeah okay I can totally do that." Eddie said then stood up with every intention of walking but found his feet won't cooroperate with stepping and he was stuck in place staring at the table a few feet away

"Milton?" He called out to his friend

"Yeah?"

"My feet won't move."

He heard a huff of breath from behind him followed by footsteps

"Let me help you." Milton offered then the boy was caught off guard when he was given a hard push that finally caused his feet to move in order to catch himself.

With shaky legs he started walking over to Grace's table and heard the tail end of the conversation she was having with Lyndsey.

"I know everyone is starting to ship Delena especially you, Katie and Ember but I just don't see the connection. Stelena is my life, they are so good together and helped one another like when Stefan was still drinking human blood and the Klaus-"

"Hey-hey Grace." The fourteen-year old nervously greeted his crush, wiping his sweaty hands on his pants

The object of his affections looked away from her friend to assess the boy behind her that interrupted her conversation with hard eyes but a cautious smile "Do I know you?"

"Not um not yet but you soon will very well."

She arched a brow"Is that so?"

"Yeah because I'm a be your future boyfriend." He declared causing Brett to snicker in amusement while Lorie just shook her head, unamused

Lyndsey shot a look at Grace, "Is he serious? Is this loser serious?"

"I'm Eddie Jones short for Edward."

"Okay, why do I need to know that" Grace patiently asked before shooting Lyndsey a look

"Well you're going to need to know that if we're-when we're going to go out."

Brett shook his head sadly at the scene that was playing out in front of him, it was like watching a train-wreck. "Oh my God."

"How about it, you me, sharing a falafel after school around 4?" He prompted trying his hardest to seem cool and unaffected as he crossed his arms over is chest, trying to signal his inner Jack mixed with Jerry

Grace shared a look with Lyndsey before the latter girl burst out laughing,

"That's very sweet of you, Eddie was it? But I'm not looking to date someone at the moment and even if I was you're not really my type. I'd like someone more athletic and well known." Grace gently turned him down then turned back around in her seat with a clear dismissal given

"Buh bye now tubbers." Lyndsey shooed him away then turned her back on him as well; Brett looked at the later in disgust, "Why do you have to be such a bitch?"

Eddie swallowed, not wanting to show how much he was affected by what just happened, or that he knows the tables nearby watched what just went down. The boy also didn't notice Frank sticking his foot out when he walked by when he turned back around to head for his table so before he knew it he was face down on the floor.

"Woops sorry didn't see you there." Frank's voice spoke down to him with a smile clear on his face

For icing on the cake he heard the laughter of Lyndsey ringing in the air at his misery.

Theatre Class

Kim entered the drama classroom with a pep in her step as she sought out an empty table to occupy only she didn't see one. Instead she decided to sit at a table that an African American girl with shoulder length black hair texting away on her phone was sitting at. The fourteen-year old instantly recognized her as Desiree Steele a junior who was the head of the school's news station as she was walking over to her table.

"Hey do you mind if I sit here?" Kim enquired garnering the older girl's attention

"No not all sit." Desiree assured her

"Thanks." The blonde replied as she did as she was told and placed her backpack next to her

Kim couldn't wait for the club meeting to start, she was already bursting with ideas of what the fall play production should be. Drama Club has performs two plays every year, one in the fall and the other in the winter. The fall play is a musical while the winter is a straight play. She heard great things about the drama teacher, Mrs. Evanheart and learned that she played was on an Off-Broadway show. Kim met her teacher at Orientation Day because it wasn't just a club but doubled as an elective class for fine arts credit. There was a theatre 1, 2, and 3 where club members could work further on setting up the plays but that wasn't the main focus and she also taught lessons. Club members didn't have to take her class but Kim wanted to because she was interested to learn more about theatre since she harbored a love for it.

The love for it started when her parents took her to see Mamma Mia on Broadway when she was six and was mesmerized by the musical and amazing actors and actress on stage as they brought life to the story given to them. Right then and there she knew that she wanted to be a part of that, only not being the actress on stage but the people who were responsible for helping the actors on stage bringing it to life. The people behind the scenes like directors and producers maybe even stage managers that type of thing because she can't act at all, after the sixth grade Little Red Riding Hood disaster that her and her friends don't speak about she learned that. It didn't bother her that much anyway because she was never that invested in acting, definitely not like Anastasia Walters. That girl was a triple threat and was a great actress who knew it and wasn't afraid to have others know to.

Kim observed the others in the classroom that was slowly filling up with the members. She saw a blonde girl with sun tanned bronzed skin who looked to be an upperclassmen sitting with a muscular African American boy. Kim recognizes the girl to be Lexi Hamilton, a varsity cheerleader and she thinks the boy is a football player. On the small platform stage up front of the class was a girl who resembled Snow White; she had the creamy pale skin, long wavy black hair, and blood red lips doing improv with an African American boy. Both looked to be about sophomores and were the preps or as Kim likes to dub them 'the Swathmore rejects' because they are barely less plastic as the private school snobs whose school is up the road. Kim recognizes another cheerleader, Erica Straffman; a pale brunette petite girl who was talking a Korean girl's ear off as she leaned against a taller brunette boy with his left arm draped over her and that Kim thinks name is Bennet or Ben who was absorbed with the phone in his right hand.; The Korean girl was Ember Chung a grade ten junior varsity cheerleader that's friends with Grace and her clique.

Erica Straffman, twin sister of Victor Straffman a Black Dragon on the other hand was something else entirely. She was obsessed with Grace and her squad wanting desperately to be a part of them that she copied Grace's every move. Now the girl decided to join drama probably because Ember is in it and Ember was the next best thing or better to Grace. A few feet away stood a boy that Kim doesn't know who was looking through the costume rack and trying on random articles of clothing, he looked to be about in tenth grade as well. So the blonde guesses that Erica, her and Anastasia were the only freshman in the club.

Mrs. Evenheart finally walked into the classroom to get the meeting started.

"Okay everyone take your seats and welcome to drama club. I already recognize a few of you from last year but I also see a few brand new faces, I am Mrs. Evenheart your teacher for this school year." Her teacher greeted him with a small smile playing on her lips

"Now as you are all well aware we are responsible for putting on the fall and spring production so I hope you guys are bursting with ideas that we could do."

Kim already did have a few ideas for what the fall production could be, like she told Jack before it was either the Addams Family or Hairspray because of those movies were her favorite. For an added bonus Skylar looked to be the perfect Wednesday Addams since the girl looked like her with her had pale skin and long black hair.

"But before we get to sharing ideas I want everyone to go up on our stage one by one to introduce themselves then we'll play our traditional get to know you game, Catch My Name." Mrs. Evaheart instructed

Her fellow blonde that Kim saw talking to the muscular boy walked up to the platform stage, beating Anastasia to the front causing the girl to scowl

"My name is Lexi Hamilton I'm a junior this year and co- captain of the varsity cheer squad and besides cheer I love to act and sing in my spare time." She introduced herself in a bored tone then walked back to her seat

Now that Lexi was seated Anastasia quickly jumped up to be next to introduced herself before anyone else could. Only the door opened drawing the attention of the classroom.

"Hey I'm so sorry that I'm late I had trouble finding the classroom." None other than Brody freaking Carlson apologized when he entered the class

Their teacher gave him an unimpressed look, "Don't make it a habit, sit."

Next Anastasia jumped up from her seat in a hurry to go next before anyone else does,

"Okay well I'm Anastasia Walters..."

Brody looked around the classroom before hesitantly walking towards Kim and Desiree's table and sitting in an empty seat across from her,

"Hey Kim." The boy nervously greeted her with a weak smile, she glared at him

"What the hell are you doing here?!" She snarled at him

"Same as you I suppose, here for the drama club meeting." He told her

"Really? Since when are you into theatre and out of all the clubs you have to join this one?" She challenged ignoring the look she got from Desiree for talking

"Well to be fair you don't really know me I've always had a passion for theatre, and don't flatter yourself I didn't know you were into it as well."

Kim continued glaring at Brody as Anastasia walked off the stage and the African American boy walked up onto it next.

"I'm Trent Blue the linebacker for the varsity Killer Whales and I do singing and acting on the side." The football player spilled with an unconcerned shrug

"Just stay out of my and don't talk to me, it's bad enough you invaded the dojo and now I have to deal with you in drama as well."

Brody's eyes flared with annoyance at Kim's words,

"Look I don't see why we can't just co-exist in peace. I told you I'm sorry about a million times and if you don't want to accept my apology then that's fine but don't pretend that you didn't use me either."

"Excuse me?"

"Please Kim you're head over heels for Jack and the only reason you agreed to go the cotillion with me was to make him jealous. We both used each other, you wanting to make Jack jealous and me to become a Black Dragon the only difference is that I'm honest about it." Brody told her

Kim, not knowing what to say to that just continued to glare at him because as much as she hates to admit it the boy was right but she refused to let him know that. Brody just scoffed at Kim's silence but took the cue and stopped trying to make conversation with him.

Desiree eyed the two freshmen at her table with bemusement,

"What's wrong with you two? Did you guys into a love's' quarrel?" She gently teased, Kim scoffed in disgust

"No, it's just certain people can be two faced jerks." The blonde jabbed earning a cold laughter from Brody

"No the problem is some girls just can't let grudges go no matter how hypocritical they're being." Brody shot back and Kim whipped her head to the side to look at the boy

"I don't remember being part of a scheme with my ex dojo that required pouring chocolate on you!" She angrily snapped back, garnering their teacher's attention at her outburst

"If you two are done flirting would you please pay attention to Skylar now?" The woman sassed

"Now back to what I was saying, I'm Skylar Wright a sophomore at Seaford and if you didn't know my parents own the Civic Center so you're welcome. Anyway, I have a passion for acting while singing is something that I don't really care for but am willing to do." The raven-haired girl informed the class before walking off the stage and sat in her seat next to the African American boy next to her

The blonde fourteen-year old girl barely heard any of what Skylar said as she was still stewing from her argument with Brody. Out of all the people who had to join drama it just had to be him! Desiree was still looking at the two of them with a twinkle of amusement in her eyes,

"Yeah that definitely sound like a lover's quarrel between the two of you freshies." The junior decided with an amused shake of her head

Seaford Main Corridor

"It couldn't have been that bad." Jack tried to reassure him as they walked out of their third period biology class

"It was, I completely embarrassed myself in front of Grace." Eddie wailed

"So Frank really tripped you huh? That is so childish." Jack's face darkened at the thought and his grip on his binder tightened unconsciously

"Yeah but what more can you expect from him, it's not like he hasn't done worse before. She'll never want to date me now that she sees me as some kind of loser."

"No offense Eddie but aren't you already a loser?"

"No!...maybe but I'm working on it so we can finally be on the same level."

"Eddie, maybe Grace isn't worth all this trouble. Kim thinks she's she's not as nice as she portrays herself to be and I kind of agree. She sometimes seems a little too nice and some of the things she says are rude if you think about it. I don't think she's worth it, you can do better." The brunette boy assured him

"She is worth it. She's also really is nice Kim is just looking too deep into things Grace could've totally slandered me when I asked her out but she didn't." Eddie reassured him once they made it to their lockers. Luckily the two friends' lockers were only three down from one another

"Didn't you say that she said she was looking for a guy that was more athletic and well known?" Jack questioned as put in the combination in his lock

"Yes." The yellow belt confirmed

"Doesn't that sound like her saying she doesn't date guys unless they're fit and popular?" Jack prompted him once he exchanged his binders for ones for his next class

The yellow belt thought about that, "Yeah but-"

"Doesn't that sound shallow?" Jack pressed

"Well- it just sounds like she has a specific type and that she deserves the best." Eddie answered with a nod

Jack gave him a look, "Wow you are really gone for this girl, I guess it's true what they say, love is blind." He muttered the last part to himself

"Have you seen how much she praises and posts her friends on Facebook? Why would she do that or have friends if she's as mean as Kim says" The yellow belt challenged as he followed Jack's example and started exchanging his books too

Jack shrugged, "I don't know Eddie, I'm not friends with her on Facebook so I can't say."

Eddie looked at his friend in shock, "You're not friends with her on Facebook?"

"Isn't that what I just said?"

"How are you not friends with her?! Everyone is friends with her!" Eddie exclaimed

Jack slowly shook his head in disagreement, "I'm pretty sure not everyone. Especially not Kim or Donna."

Eddie ignored him, "So are you saying you don't follow any of The Elite members?"

"No I didn't say that, I follow Ember, Rose, Katie, Brett and Brad. Just not Lorie, Grace or Lyndsey." His friend replied

"What's wrong with Lorie?" The shorter one asked once he gathered his books for next period then closed his locker

"She just thinks she's better than everyone else and treats people she's not friends with like they're peasants." The brunette responded as he also closed his locker then walked closer to where Eddie was standing

"I find it a little funny that you don't follow the two girls who have huge crushes on you and would probably die if you follow one over the other." Eddie mused causing Jack to blush in embarrassment

"It's not my fault that girls have crushes on me, I barely even talk to either one of them." The junior black belt tried to defend himself

"And also because you have a huge crush on Kim." Eddie added

"I didn't say that."

"But it's obvious, when are you going to ask her out?"

"I'm not-we're not having this conversation right now!" The taller boy exclaimed

"Fine but can you at least help a brother out, teach me your ways of wooing girls so I can win over Grace." Eddie pleaded causing his friend to huff in annoyance

"Eddie to be honest I don't even know how I do it, I'm just being myself."

"C'mon you have to know something, anything please you're cool, Grace doesn't even treat you that badly."

"Okay fine I'll try and teach you but no promises for success, come over my place after school. I'm getting the whole gang together to celebrate surviving the first week of high school."

"Cool! Thanks Jack, I knew I was friends with you for a reason." The yellow belt exclaimed, causing Jack to roll his eyes

"I'll see you later." Was the skater's response and the two friends did a quick handshake before the mole faced teen left and Eddie turned his attention back to his locker

He wasn't alone for long as Kelsey, who was watching the two friends interact from her locker across the hall from his gathered up the courage to finally go over to Eddie and talk to him.

"Hey Eddie." Kelsey greeted him causing him to turn around in surprise

"Oh, hey Kelsey." He greeted back then closed his locker door

Today the girl was wearing turquoise blue shorts with an assorted flower shirt, blue converses, and to top it off had white cat ears on her brunette hair that was in two pigtails.

Eddie wasn't stupid, he knew about the girl's crush on him and found it cute but he doesn't feel the same way about her. Frankly, he was absolutely positive that he would never reciprocate her feeling because if he was being completely honest she was just too weird. She wears cat ears, dances when there wasn't any music, says random things out of nowhere, has a weird sense of style, and doesn't care about the status quo. Everyone cares about the status quo.

"So I uh, I heard what went down in the cafeteria at breakfast earlier."

"Did everyone hear about that?" The yellow belt groaned then covered his face with his free left hand

"Well I share a class with Lyndsey and she was talking about it very loudly so maybe just the whole grade nine." Kelsey explained

"Aww, great now my popularity will continue to plummet even further." Eddie complained miserably then started walking toward the small seating area next to the stairs, Kelsey of course followed

"Why-why do you even like Grace? She's not a very nice person." The girl practically blurted out to him

Eddie barely held back an eye roll, "I don't understand what you or Kim see that I supposedly don't. Grace is a nice person, she isn't a bully like Lyndsey, now she is mean. Grace talks to everyone she's always smiling and doesn't turn her nose up at anyone who isn't in her group." Eddie basically ranted to Kelsey who was sitting down next to him

"Eddie she isn't sincere at all. She's nice nasty and for some reason no one else notices it. You deserve better than someone who's fake" Kelsey argued

Eddie shook his head,"Thanks for that Kelsey but you don't know what you're talking about."

Kelsey sighs, realizing she ins't going to get through to him, "Whatever, but Eddie you know you guys aren't going to happen. Why can't you aim for someone easier?"

"Easy and boring, and it won't help with getting me popular."

"Popular? You're doing this for popularity?"

"Amongst other things yeah."

"What is it with popularity why does everyone care so much about being popular it's high school, it's not going to matter in the long run." The girl ranted and Eddie nearly rolled his eyes at what she was saying

Of course she thinks that, she was a weirdo who didn't care about people and even if she did no one would want to hang out with her who wasn't Kim and Donna.

"Look Kelsey as much fun as this conversation is I gotta get to my class so I'll see you later okay." Eddie told her then walked away without waiting for a response from her

Kelsey watched his retreating form with a frown,

"Bye." She said to the empty place next to her before getting up herself and walking to her own class

Crawford Residence

"And then he had the nerve to accuse me of being hypocrite!" Kim ranted to Kelsey and Donna from where she lay on top of her bed's white duvet with black flowers sprinkled over it and towards the bottom a big group of flowers

After school let out Kim invited Kelsey and Donna over to her house to practice her campaign speech. As per usual they set up camp in her room. She was more than happy to leave the building because her day was completely ruined by what happened in drama club. One of the top three things she was looking forward to when school began next to winning the election and gymnastics season was the drama club. Assisting the older kids with being the stage manager or assistant director all that stuff it made her super excited until that jerk had to join. When school let out she was more than happy to leave the place. Next week the plan for all the presidential candidates were on Monday was to be all about campaigning like putting up their posters and gaining followers, Tuesday was for introducing them to the students, Wednesday was Q&A, then Friday was the debate then straight to the polls for voting.

"Well to be fair he isn't wrong, you were using him to make Jack jealous, it's not like you actually liked Brody to begin with." Donna pointed out from where she sat at Kim's vanity looking at a photo-booth strip of her with the girls from last year's fall festival. The girls were all doing funny faces into the camera.

"Donna!" The blonde exclaimed, sitting on her bed feeling betrayed

The blonde also saw Donna roll her eyes in her mirror before she turned around to face her

"Oh please Kim don't act so scandalized you're no more innocent than he is, the only difference is you weren't going to publicly humiliate him just break his heart."

Kim shook her head in disbelief, "I can't believe what I'm hearing right now, you're supposed to be on my side!" She exclaimed

"The truth hurts." Donna replied back with a shrug.

This was when Kelsey-who was laying horizontally at the edge of Kim's bed leafing through a magazine- decides it was time to break in, "Okay why are we still talking about this whole Brody thing, what we should be focusing on is the fact you're going over to Jack's tonight."

"Oh it's nothing really Kels, it's just a hangout no different than any other ones we had before I mean the guys are also going to be there." Kim quickly dismissed as she positioned her legs into a criss cross position

As much as she wants to believe that this get together will lead to something else she knew realistically it won't, it never has. All that happens is they sit either in Jack's living room, bedroom, or backyard play board games, or watch a movie while before Jerry, Eddie, and sometimes Jack stop paying attention and goof off while her and Milton try and finish the movie. If the boys were being too obnoxious then Milton and her break off away from them to either talk, play a board game, or cook together. Then the time to go home approaches and usually by then the boys get a hold of themselves enough to finish the movie before their rides get there then they leave. That happens pretty much all the time.

"So?, that doesn't mean you have to waste a good opportunity to dress nice and get his attention. Maybe give him the kick in the butt to finally ask you out." Kelsey encouraged with an excited smile and a nudge to her foot

"But I don't want to seem like I'm trying too hard and then get teased cuz then I have to kick their ass and it just seem like not a good time." Kim complained before reaching behind herself to hug her green pillow to her chest

With lime green being her favorite color she decorated her bedroom with that color in mind. Her walls were painted the color, her window curtains were green, and her three panel vanity table and stool were green. She balanced the green with black and white so it wasn't completely overboard. Her bed's headboard, nightstand, and saucer chair were black. Two of of her other pillows were white, her duvet, desk, and picture frames that sat on her nightstand.

"Who are you and what have you done to my friend Kimberly Beulah Crawford?" Kelsey demanded in all seriousness causing the blonde to roll her eyes

"I'm just tired of always being the one to have to push things, why can't he?"

"He's a coward." Donna immediately answered and Kim nearly threw a pillow at her head

"Didn't he offer to help out with your campaign posters? What happened them? You know after we left."

"We just hung out one on one and talked, drew, then after that went to my living room and watched TV while also taking care of Belle then he left."

"Speaking of the election. I know this may sound like a totally crazy idea but shouldn't we I don't know, work on it? Campaigning starts next and all we have done is make posters. We still need to come up with your cause, your slogan, your debate speech, focus on that yeah?" Donna turned the conversation back to the task at hand with her hands on her hips signaling her impatience

Kim swung her legs to the side of her bed and nodded her agreement quickly,

"You're right, you're right I'm sorry. Lets focus on the election, the reason I called you guys here in the first place." The blonde agreed then hopped off her bed to head for her backpack and grab a notebook and pencil

"Then after that we can talk outfits for your hangout at Jack's place." Kelsey piped up hopefully earning a flat look from Donna who grabbed a shirt on the vanity stool and threw it at her

"Hey!" Kelsey exclaimed, affronted

"Debate speech rough draft ideas now!" The raven-haired girl demanded as she grabbed her own notebook then plopped down on the stool

Kim nodded focusing back on the task and not the two boys who both irritated her only for completely different reasons.
