"Why does your arm look nasty? ", Abby asked as Michelle put an arm around my shoulder.
We were walking over to our French class, the first one after the test and all the Pencil Buddy stuff.

"I bumped it into the cabinet", I lied as I pulled the sleeve of my sweatshirt further down.

"You know what, you really got to stop lying about the same thing, to the same people", Michelle zeroed her eyes at me.

"Why don't you tell your parents Chloe?", Abby suggested.

"Oh yeah? What'd I say? Oh hey Mom and Dad, got a crackling news for you guys. Your other daughter here, my sister, bullies me around and she has made my life a hell hole and she probably is the reason I'm a stuck up loser in school so why don't you talk to her like you always do so that she comes clean, again and oh yeah, could you get me a little sympathy from the top shelf? Thank you so much", I breathed out as I finished my oh-so-sarcastic speech.
They just looked at me and did what friends should do, sighed and shook their heads.
Then they did what best friends always do. Look at each other and burst into laughter in the middle of the hallway.
Way to go Chloe.
I sighed and started walking away.

"Oh c'mon Chloe. Try to talk to them. Maybe a little more explanation into what happens. They'll understand", Abby nodded.

"Understand my ass", I spat.

"Yeah you've got a sexy ass", Chaz commented and grabbed my waist as all three of them guys walked with us towards the class.

"That's. Private. Property. ", I looked at my ass then at Chaz.

" So? ", he smiled and led us in.
We sat down while Ms. Francis waited for the class to settle.
We were not early as usual so we took whatever seats we got. And that ended Justin in the far end of the classroom with me on this end.
He looked at me and then around to find another place but then groaned and sat down.

"So class, I'm gonna hand out the papers you guys solved last time. I'd say you have progressed and well let's keep it that way for the rest of the year"
She started handing out sheets and Michelle turned back to me and did a fist pump. So she scored well.
Then Abby turned around and smiled bright. Okay that's good.
I was scanning the room, waiting for Ms. Francis to reach my desk when a certain someone caught my eye.
Nick was scratching the back of his head with a lost expression on his face. Oh dear, someone had a bad test.
And of course there was Claire who was calming him down by flashing her paper. Looks like that side isn't sunny today. And I'm not kidding, it made me nervous.
I started biting my lower lip while watching Ms. Francis move slowly.

"Somebody get her skates. I'm going old", I muttered under my breath earning a low chuckle from Ryan sitting in front of me. Chaz was trying to console a broken Cammie who was faking her sadness to get S-Y-M-P-A-T-H-Y.
Those two lucky asses don't have to worry. It's their first French lecture so they don't have papers waiting for them.
Just then, I saw Hailee Brend stroke Justin on the back of his neck. He turned around and flashed his signature smile as she twirled a stand of her hair in her finger. A cheeky smile never leaving her face.
Then she put her hand on his thigh and whispered something that got him grinning like the idiot he is.

"Seriously? ", I spat out as I mentally rolled my eyes.

"Seriously", Ms. Francis smiled.
I blinked and then looked at her. She was standing near me and I saw my paper in my hand.
