Chapter 5- Candice Avalon

Chapter 5- Candice Avalon

"CANDY!!!"

I groaned as I entered the therapy center.

Why Candy? Can't it be like, Dice or something?

"Yes, Cassie?"

"Look at what Camilla posted." Cassandra smiled eagerly and handed Camilla's phone to me as I sat down on my bean bag.

It was a picture of two boys cuddling each other. One of them lokked like Camilla.

"Gay?" I asked while Camilla busted out laughing.

What? What did I do?

"That's my brother," She pointed to the one that looks like her.

Of course!

"And that's my boyfriend." Camilla smirked as I started laughing.

Despite being jealous of her relationship, I seemed to find it amusing.

"Well, that is awkward." I said, trying to quiet down.

"Sorry I'm late." Penny apologized, coming in looking like she was just harrased by a monkey.

Her hair was flying everywhere and the books and papers she was holding were flying and her bag was open. The bags under her eyes tells me that she didn't sleep at all.

She looked horrible.

"Penny, you look horrible." Cameryn blurted out.

Way to be blunt.

Penny just glared at her.

Out of nowhere we heard a squeal.

I turned around and saw a little girl running around, being chased by a man who looked about five years older than I was.

"Leila! No!" The man groaned.

The little girl had hazel hair and the man had blonde hair.

Penny sighed and closed her eyes tightly as she counted from one to five.

This is amusing. And by the reactions of the rest of the girls, they were also amused.

The man chased after... Leila and Penny placed her things down before chasing Leila who was dashing down the halls

"You think she's her child?" Cassandra asked staring at where they went.

"I mean, yeah, she sort of looks like her." Camilla said thoughtfully before giggling at something on her phone.

In my peripheral vision, I could see Cameryn rolling her eyes.

What was that supposed to be?

"Todd, what have I told you about leaving your daughter in the car?" Penny asked the man, Todd as they came back with Leila in Todd's arms.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. She is also your daughter not only mine." Todd said.

"Todd," Penny whined, stomping her foot.

"Penelope," Todd mimicked Penny.

I started chuckling.

"There we go again with the chuckling because of a name." Cassandra rolled her eyes at me.

"Shut your mouth."

"Your name's Peneplope?" Cameryn asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"No! Hell no!" Penny shouted, glaring at Todd who was smiling.

Todd looked oddly familiar. I've seen him somewhere.

"Do I know you?" Todd stared at me for a moment.

"I have no idea." I said staring at him also.

He looks so familiar. I swear I 've seen him somewhere.

"Candice?" Todd asked.

That's my name.

"Yeah."

"Candice Avalon? Like, from Turner High?"

And that's the name of my high school.

"Yeah...?" I looked at him. Is he some sort of creepy stalker?

Todd rolled his eyes, "What was the name of your History teacher in Senior Year?"

Mr. Wesley. I was pretty close to that dude. He was one of the youngest teachers. Fresh out of college.

I whipped my head back to his face. Blonde hair. Black eyes. Eyeglasses. And a bit nerdy and geeky.

"Mr. Wesley!" I exclaimed.

He was my favorite teacher and the only one I could get along with.

Camilla perked up, "Wait, I used to go to Turner High."

"So did I." Cameryn frowned.

"Oh. Oh... Oh! You're The Candice Avalon!" Camilla exclaimed happily.

"The one hated by every cheerleader?" Cameryn asked Camilla quietly but I heard it.

"I heard that." I said, a bit hurt.

Every single cheerleader hated me after the... incident.

"Huh. Small world." Penny said, sitting down on the green bean bag.

Small world indeed.

"Daddy, can we buy candy?" Leila smiled at Mr. Wes-- Todd.

That girl is the most adorable thing ever.

"Yeah, sure. Let's go and let mommy work." Todd smiled at us before leaving.

"Mommy, huh?" Cameryn nudged Penny and winked at her.

Penny's face flushed and we all started laughing.

A phone started ringing and I saw Camilla furrow her eyebrows before smirking.

'Boyfriend' She mouthed, putting her phone on speaker.

"CAMILLA DENISE RIVERS!" A boy's voice shouted from the other line.

"Yes?" Camilla smiled at us, putting her finger on her lips, shushing Cassandra's giggling.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!!?"

"CAMILLA!" Another voice yelled.

Her brother maybe?

"What?" Camilla whined.

"This means war." And with that they hung up.

I swear, Camilla's face paled.

You know, I'm actually worried for her.

Two boys against a girl? That's not a fair fight.

"You guys know what I'm thinking?" Penny smirked evilly.

Oh no.

"That we leave this hell-hole?" Cameryn raised her eyebrows.

"No. I mean technically, yes. Girls, we'll be showing those boys some girl power." Penny place her hand in the middle of the circle.

The first one to slap her hand was Camilla who was also smirking.

We all followed with the same looks on our faces.

"This is gonna be fun." Camilla giggled.

Yes, yes it is.
