Confessions of a Middle School Gossip Girl

Chapter 1

Okay. I have a problem. I admit it. No matter where I go, who I talk to, it follows me like B.O.
This is what I'm thinking when I walk back to the guidance counselor's office. Apparently, my teachers have all plotted against me to get the help I need. I hate teachers.
I know what you guys are thinking. This girl's is on drugs or something. Nope, no drugs here. I'm a totally evil girl plotting world domination.
The counselor, Mrs. Rainer smiles and tells me to sit down in her office.
Where to sit? I don't know. Her office is a mess of Barbie Dolls and pictures of 3 little blonde girls and a tall redhead man. She smiles meeting my quizzical face, she says "Why don't you stand."
Mrs.Ranier sits in a big chair. Her small frame, bleach blonde hair, turquoise nails practically shining.
I point to her nails. "Nice color." For a dolphin, I think.
Her smile has grown more intense. Scary intense. "We're not here to talk about my nails, Halley. We're here to talk about your incident yesterday." Mrs.Ranier says.
I'm not too sure what incident she's talking about thought. It could be in first block when I told everyone that Mr.Walsh's stomach looks it's about to pop. In second block, when I told John that anyone who is old enough to legally have their driving license in the seventh grade is pretty dumb.
There's plenty of other things in the past couple of days that I've said, but i think that's enough for now.
Mrs.Rainer starts tapping her pen on her desk. "So, any idea why you're here?" She asks.
I laughed. I really wanted to do the Marshawn Lynch thing where he's like "You know why I'm here" or "I'm only here so I don't get suspended".
Instead, I shrug and say "I'm really not sure."
Now it's Mrs.Rainer's turn to laugh. "I think we both know you know why you're here." She says.
I shrug.
"Ms.Baker, you have one more opportunity to tell me everything, or you will get a phone call home." Now she was getting frustrated.
I sighed. Well, I might as well tell her everything right now.
"Well in Ms.Love's class I told the people in my group that Mr.Walsh's stomach looked like it was a big balloon, and to be careful because it was going to pop eventually." I pause, trying to remember what happened next. "Well, then Ms.Love comes behind me saying that I'm a mean person and that I'm evil. So, I said that she was a whore." I confessed. There it was.
"Wait, you called Ms.Love a whore? I never heard that part." She said.
I shrugged again.
Mrs.Rainer jumped up to leave the office, I just stayed still. My feet were glued to the floor. Frozen in time.
Mrs.Rainer came back from wherever she went about five minutes later.
"Well, your Uncle Jack is on the way to have a meeting with your teachers during lunch." She looked at me and smiled. "I know what you're thinking. Am I going to let you go back to class?" She paused. "Um, you have the choice to stay in my office or go to OPTIONS."
"I'll take OPTIONS" I said, maybe just a little too fast.
She nodded as we went down the hallway. Oh, what an interesting day it will be.
