"So- So!" John redirects his attention to Claire and Andrew, "Are you guys like boyfriend, girlfriend?"

"Steady dates?" i chime in

"Lo-vers?" Claire and Andrew ignore us.
John flips his hair out of his face and stares at Andrew
"C'mon sporto, level with me. Do you slip her the hot..beef...injection?" I chuckle loudly.

"CUT IT OUT!"

"GO TO HELL!"

"Told you, getting a rise out of you." i say, leaning back in my chair.

"And yet you still couldn't ignore me, huh?" John looks at me, smirking. i stick my tongue out at him, my cheeks turning slightly red.

John walks over to the railing, sitting on it. He points at the door, "What do you say we close that door? We can't have any kind of party with Vernon checking us out every few seconds."

"Well you know the door's supposed to stay open," Brian says, looking up at us.

"So?"

"So why don't you just shut up! There are five other
people in here you know." Andrew yells.

"Who knew you could count?" i snicker, Andrew glares at me.

"Yeah, I knew you had to be smart to be a..a wrestler." John retorts, drawing Andrew's attention back to him

"Who the hell are you to judge?"

"Really.." Claire mutters

"You know, Bender...you don't even count.  I mean if you disappeared forever it wouldn't make any difference. You may as well not even exist at this school." Andrew snaps back. John stays quiet, looking slightly hurt.

"Hey, jackass," Andrew looks at me, "shut the fuck up."
John jumps back into the conversation.
"Well than I'll just run right out and join the wrestling team." Claire and Andrew look at each other and laugh.

"Maybe the Prep club too! Student council..."

"No they wouldn't take you."

"I'm hurt."

"You know why guys like you knock everything?" Claire adds in

"Oh- this should be fucking stunning" i mutter

"It's 'cause you're afraid."

"Oh, God!  You ritchies are so smart, that's exactly why I'm not heavy in activities!" John says with mock enthusiasm

"I'm in the math club.." Brian says quietly, i turn to him and smile, acknowledging him.

"See you're afraid that they won't take you.  You don't belong so you just have to dump all over it..."

"Well...it wouldn't have anything to do with you activities people being assholes...now would it?"

"Well you wouldn't know.. you don't even know any of us."

"I do," i add in, they look at me, "I've know you since first grade, you've always been a stuck up bitch who thinks she's better than anyone, when she really is just playing pretend to be fucking popular."
Claire stares at me, John nods his head in approval.

"Hey, watch the mouth, huh?" Andrew speaks up.

"I'm in the physics club too..." Brian speaks up again, i turn to him, showing interest and confusion at the same time.

"Excuse me a second," he looks at Brian, "what are you babbling about?" i give John a look, then turn back to Brian to let him finish.

"Well, what I said was...I'm in the math club, the Latin club and the physics club...physics club." i nod my head, half interested.
