"Do you see her, Bella?" Hailey questions.
"Yes."
Bella and Hailey stare at the girl in the stunning dress. It's blood red and has ruffles that flow to the ground. It has only one sleeve. The girl is swaying to the music, attracting all the boys. Actually, it seems like everyone in the room has gravitated towards her.
"That bitch is going to regret this,"
"Hailey! Wait a moment. Just calm-"
Bella couldn't finish her sentence quick enough because Hailey was already off and headed towards the girl with rage.
"Well, if it isn't Chloe DeMarco," Hailey says with vengeance.
"Nice to see you too, Hailey," Chloe responds.
The girls stare into each others eyes. The hatred in Hailey's eyes burns. Their recent past is full of torment.
"Why are you trying to piss me off?"
"Me? Piss you off? Ha. I just want to impress the crowd, Hailey. That's all," Chloe giggles.
Hailey's rage has built up too much. She is breathing heavily. Hailey's cheeks are flushed and palms are sweaty. It isn't normal for Hailey to get so upset so easily, but then again, it is Chloe DeMarco.
Before anyone can stop her, Hailey raises her hand and slaps Chloe across the face. Everyone in the room becomes silent. The music stops and everyone freezes, staring at the two girls who stand in the living room.
