A Series of Consequences

"Lizzie? Lizzie!"

Lizzie jumped up in her seat when she felt someone pinch her arm.

"What was that for!" She yelled when she looked to her left and saw Josie.

"You're staring at her again!"

'Her' was the person Lizzie affectionately dubbed 'The Witch' after walking by her lunch table one day and seeing her studying Latin.

"It's not my fault she's so pretty! Look how she's wearing her hair today, Josie! It's hot!" Lizzie whisper yelled towards her sister.

"You're being creepy, Lizzie!" Josie admonished.

Lizzie glared at her sister.

The two were sitting in their usual lunch table in the school cafeteria.

'The Witch' was sitting in the table in the corner of the room, the one that had previously been empty until 3 weeks ago, when the brunette appeared at the school.

Lizzie decided that the brunette must've been a new student, since she'd never seen her around before and had spotted her holding her class schedule in October.

Lizzie was quite literally shoved out of her day dream when MG knocked into her while sitting down.

The blonde rolled her eyes at him before turning back to the mystery girl.

MG followed her line of sight.

"Is she still obsessing over her?" He sighed and asked Josie. "Does Lizzie realize she has a mouth and can speak to people?" He mock whispered to the girl.

Josie let out a snort while Lizzie grabbed his apple and threw it across the room.

"Hey!" He yelled.

Lizzie smirked at him.

Josie turned caring eyes towards her twin. "Lizzie, is it really good for you to obsess over her like this? I'm not trying to sound rude, but I don't think she's ever even looked at you. Maybe you should set your sights on someone more attainable?"

Lizzie glared. "Do you have any idea how rude that just sounded?"

Josie held her hands up. "I'm not trying to be mean, I promise! I just mean you don't know anything about her! She could be really weird!"

"Not to mention she could just be straight." MG added.

"Ya... she does give off that vibe, Lizzie." Josie added.

Lizzie groaned and put her head on the table. "But she's so pretty!" She groaned.

Josie patted her back.

Lizzie sat back up. "Fine. I'll try to get over her." She said.

Lizzie looked at MG and glared.

"Switch seats with me."

"What, why! I've sat in the same spot all year!"

Lizzie got up and pulled him out of his seat. "I'll be less tempted to look at her if my back is to her."

MG grabbed his tray and moved around the table.

Right before he could finally begin eating, the bell loudly rang.

"Seriously!" He complained as both girls got up and grabbed their backpacks.

"Remember, no thoughts about the girl!" Josie reminded.

"I know!" Lizzie yelled back as she went the opposite way.

Lizzie got lost in her thoughts as she walked to her Algebra class.
