As I walk/run towards Jacklin's house, she gives me a call.
"So, you heard about my new boyfriend?" And I growl while saying,
"Jacklin, you are getting on my last nerve. You better get a life or I will shove one up your butt." And with that I hang my phone up, and slam it on the ground, making it shatter into 3 pieces. I realize that I don't really need to go to Jacklin's house, so I decide to call Kat and ask her if she saw the picture.

"That- I'm going to kill her!" Kat screams and then takes a bite of pizza.
"I'm not." She looks up at me, and asks,
"Wait, what?" I sigh and try not to be sarcastic.
"I don't have a reason to. Yeah, sure she's a psychotic crazy woman, but I don't have any feelings for Brandon."
This time, Kat sighs and I'm pretty sure she says under her breath,"Yet, honey. Yet."

That night I decide to stay at Kat's. The conversation to my mom doesn't end well though:
"Mom I'm gonna stay over at Kat's."
"Um- I don't think that's a good idea..."
"Mom, not today. Seriously, please stop."
"Honey, she's a bad influence."
"Mom, I'm not kidding! I really just want to stay here, and I won't be late for school in the morning!"
"I don't like you always being around that gir-"
I hang the phone up.

When I wake up at Kat's house, I have 10 minutes to be at school. I rush to slip on some skinny jeans, a T-shirt, and some flip-flops. With that I'm out the door. All the way to school I wonder if Zane has asked the girl out, and if Brandon and... Jacklin.... Are dating. For some reason I hope not. I don't know why though, I don't really know Brandon that much, and I absolutely hate Jacklin. Before I know it, I'm at school, with 1 minute before the bell.
Ok, so after school I will talk to Brandon and thank him for everything.
Then ask about Jacklin.
