Over the weekend, Cleo came over to my house. Along with a few other girls. Kingsly Lewis, the daughter of someone my mom works with came over as well. Kingsly was a year be hind us, but nobody else cared, except for Cleo.
"So, Kingsly, what's it like being in," Cleo started laughing, "Middle School."
That sent Vinnie Larkson, a good friend of mine, Danny Evertt, my neighbor, and Hazel, my cousin, in to a roar of snobby laughter.
I could see the tears forming at Kingsly's eyes as she watched the girls snicker. I couldn't stand it anymore, "Cleo, shut up! Your being a snobby jerk!" Before I could continue James popped his head in the door. I mentally sighed and gave him a thankful look.
"Okay, well, the pizzas are here so..." he stopped when he saw Kingsly breaking down in tears and Cleo's shocked expression, "Kingsly?" he whispered softly as he moved into the room closing the door. Sometimes James could be a jerk, though he kind most of the time.
Cleo rolled her eyes, "James, you don't have to baby her, even though she's in middle school." the girls starting laughing again. I glared at them coldly, making Cleo shut up which made the rest them do the same.
James looked at Cleo, "What's wrong with Kingsly being in middle school?" he was already sitting beside Kingsly with his arm around her shoulder.Cleo shrugged, "It just doesn't seem right," she muttered, knowing that she did something wrong.
Kingsly finally stopped crying, "I want to go home." she whispered not moving from James. Her mom mentioned something about her anxiety,something how she gets really tense around people. I guess that explains what's wrong with her, but it doesn't explain Cleo's all-of-a-sudden rudeness. I never thought Cleo as a mean, rich, popular girl, but who knows, maybe high school is getting to her?
James rubbed Kingsly's arm, "It's fine, if we have any more issues,"he glanced at Cleo, "Come tell me, any of you." he stood up, his fingers ran through he hair as he added, "Come downstairs,the pizza is ready." he strided out of the room without saying anything else.
