(LILY'S POV)

we were all at class with sikowitz

sikowitz: Let's... discuss... acting... 

then he kept quite and looked at us

lily: What about acting? 

sikowitz: Oh, yes. Any questions? 

we all looked at hime confused

cat: One time, my brother painted part of his body purple. 

robbie: Well, why did your brother paint part of his body purple? 

cat: He had a job interview. He didn't get it. 

then the bell rings

sikowitz: Wait, wait, wait. Would anyone be interested in seeing the cast list. For our little play called steamboat Suzy? 

andré: Yeah.

lily:  Yeah. 

robbie: You know it.

jade:  I got the lead, right? 

sikowitz: Pardon? 

jade: I'm playing Suzy, right?

sikowitz looked at us and smiled nervously and he put the envelope on the floor and ran away, jade picked up the envelope and read it

 lily: Did you get the lead? 

she looked at us and crumbled the paper and threw it and kicked the chair

andré: I don't think she got it.

robbie: So who's playing Suzy? 

tori took the envelope and read it

tori: Me. 

jade: Yeah, her. That. She got the lead. 

cat: Well, what part did you get?

 jade: I got cheated and humiliated. 

sinjin: You get used to it.

andré:  All right, now chill down. Let's see. It says right here, "jade West, understudy. For the role of Suzy."

jade: Oh, yee-hoo Like it's my dream to be Tori's understudy. 

tori: What's an understudy? 

jade: Oh, man.

she threw her bottle into the glass object and shattered it 

robbie: Um, an understudy is like a back-up actor.

andré: So if you get sick or something, your understudy takes over For your part in the play. 

jade: Yeah, yeah, if you get sick or go missing, or GET HIT BY A BUS!

then she left the classrom 

jade: Uhhh. 

we heard her punch a locker

tori: Uh, she can't drive a bus, right? 

💫💫💫💫

later we were at the hallways, sitting on the stairs

andré: Mmm. I swear, I don't know why granny Smith apples get a bad rap. This is one of the best apples I've ever eaten. 

jade took his apple and stepped on it, and gave it back to him
