A/N: okay this chapter is longer. Thank you for sticking around, it only gets better!! Please vote and comment.

Cali wasn't as depressed for school as she was yesterday. She had volleyball to look forward to and of course, the dashing Garrett Vernon.
She slipped on her Givenchy cropped top, Stella McCartney boyfriend jeans, and her maroon Doc Martens. As always, she wore her black velvet choker her mother gave her years ago. "God Cali hurry up." Kylie whined in the door way.
"Chill, I'm ready." Cali retorted. They headed down to the corvette and off to school. When they pulled in next to Garrett's Lambo, Cali felt her heart pound against her rib cage. They stepped out, all the while Cali eyed Garrett. To her dismay he didn't turn around. She sullenly linked arms with Kylie and headed to her locker.

"You can't wear that." Blair demanded. Natalia stared down at her baby-blue and black Miu Miu romper.
"And why not?" Natalia asked, offended. Blair rolled her eyes, put her hand on her hip and with the other motioned to her dark blue Tommy Hilfiger top and black crocheted shorts.
"We'll be matching."
"Then why don't you change? We're at your house." Natalia was furious. She loved her outfit, she just bought it yesterday and knew for a fact it would bring the spotlight on her, and away from Blair.
"Natalia, I know you keep a change of clothes in your car. Now go change!" Blair stomped her foot for emphasis. Natalia bit her lip and stormed off.
"Fine!" She shouted on her way out, making Genevieve and Paige jump. Blair smiled, content with herself. She knew that in that outfit Natalia could easily out do her, and she couldn't have that. Natalia changed into her Victoria Beckham lace sweater and gray leggings. She went from spring couture to winter casual in an instant because of Blair. She tossed her romper and heels in her car settling on Uggs.
"See, thats better." Blair smiled, waltzing down the front steps. "Now, who's coming with me today?" Blair's sugar sweet smile faltered when no one answered.
"Paige?" Even though Paige was always on her nerves the girl practically worshipped the quick sand she walked on.
"Well actually, I told Natalia I'd go with her." Paige muttered and ducked into the Ferrari.
"Genevieve then?" Blair smiled at her friend. When Genevieve hesitated she felt the anger bubbling in her gut.
"Yeah of course Blair." Genevieve reluctantly got into the Porsche. All the early morning drama made the girls late, and there weren't as many envious eyes on them as usual, infuriating Blair. 'That dumb bitch Natalia is to blame.' Blair thought, shooting daggers at Natalia the whole way to first period.

The day proved to be worse for Cali than she had anticipated. Garrett didn't talk to her at all, girls snickered and gossiped behind her back, and Mr. Calloway assigned a project. She was just relieved to go to lunch with her sister and be closer to going to volleyball.
"Hey you never texted me." Genevieve frowned and leaned against her locker sullenly.
"Oh sorry it totally slipped my mind." Cali was truly sorry.
"We should hang out sometime soon." Genevieve nearly exclaimed.
"I'd like that. I'll text you when I get home." Cali smiled.
"Sounds great! Bye Cali." Genevieve skipped off to the café.
"What took you so long?" Blair snapped at Genevieve.
"Ms. Mooney let us out late." Genevieve said quickly.
"Well now that we're all finally here," Blair shot Genevieve a disapproving look, "I want us all to go shopping tomorrow for outfits for the party."
"Yes!" Paige squealed.
"Great idea Blair." Genevieve smiled, hoping to make up for being late.
"I know, isn't it?" Blair let out a prideful giggle. She was happy to be back on top.
