Diana tried to keep her expression blank, even though she was freaking out inside, the only guy that she ever loved had moved on from her, again. Everyone around them started to dance to Omi's Hoola-Hoop and a few pre-teens including Dianna's younger sister were dancing with bright pink hoola-hoops and doing strange tricks.
" ..He was just so romantic, obviously I said yes ", Diana heard Bree say after a while of zoning out from the conversation.
" Uhmm, what?", Diana said trying to get her voice from not sounding too shaky
" Didn't you hear how I explained how Ian and I got together?", Bree asked with a pout.
"Of course I did. I'm so happy for you two", Diana lied as she made eye contact with Margot from across the room.
Margot flipped her hair aside,she kept glaring at Diana , the two of them haven't spoken in almost 3 years after Diana broke up with Ian and blamed Margot for everything that happened.
" It's nice to see that you're finally back", Diana said as she strutted over to where Margot was standing with the twins. " I see you've made new friends already"

Margot crossed her arms as she looked at Diana with distaste.
"I see nothing's changed with you. Still jealous that Ian has moved on yet again."
Diana turned her nose up at Margot's comment, but Margot could see past her pretentious façade. The twins snickered from behind.
"How was home schooling?" Diana asked disinterested, but clearly wanting to change the subject.
Margot's brain fogged, she wasn't up for this. She swore Dianna was gone for good, if she knew she was going to be at this party she may have just skipped out and hit the bar at one of Bellemont's five star hotels. Find some tourist with a room. Spend the night or get her own room and trash it.
Margot shrugged. "Better than Bellemont High." She could have boasted about the adventures she had, but what would be he point in that? She'd only be feeding the fire.
Instead she just said "How was Pennsylvania?".While Diana conjured up a response, she peeked over at Ian and Bree. Bree was scrunching her nose in a piggish way as she laughs at something Ian tells her. Margot is glad she isn't over there. Bree laughs like a hyena who ate some shrooms.

Dianna twisted her hair around her bony finger, she sighed as she realized that it had been like two and a half years since she and her ex best friend had a sleepover on the beach. It felt like yesterday when they set up matching pink tents and got drunk on vodka cocktails it was the same night when Margot tipsily confessed to sleeping with Ian, it crushed Diana and she hadn't spoken to, or seen, one of them since that night.
Her parents were surprised when she finally agreed to attend the preppy boarding school her mother attended. Diana left for Philadelphia the next day and for three years she hasn't set a foot in Bellemont, untill now.
" I would love to tell you all about the amazing parties I hosted in my dorm room, unfortunately i'll have to take a rain check on that because a certain cocktail is calling my name ", Diana said with a fake smile and strutted over to the tiki bar across the beach.
Diana noticed that all the people from Bellmont still looked the same as they did four years ago, the same boring hairstyles and preppy outfits. She placed her elbows on the bar and leaned on them as she pushed breasts her out to give the bartender a nice view.
" One frozen lime mojito ", Dianna said handing him a few dollar bills, she turned around to see that the guy sitting next to her was quite attractive, she had never seen him in Bellemont before.
" You're new ", she said chewing on her bottom lip with a sultry voice.
" I was about to say the same to you ", the hot stranger replied with a smirk.
" Well, I haven't been here in like almost 3 years? ", she said flicking a stray hair behind her ear.
" And why is that?", he asked quite intrigued by the mysterious dark haired girl.
" Boarding school. My parents decided that it would be better for my education if they shipped me off to Philly. Being the spiteful daughter that I am, I spent all my holidays with my celebrity friends instead of coming home to the most boring town ", Diana said before turning her attention to the bar tender and pressing her lips to the lime green striped straw.
" So ,you're back for good?" , he said sounding hopeful.
" yes, for now", she said with a mysterious grin.
" So why did you come back?", he asked creasing his brows.
" That's my secret, maybe one day I'll tell you", she said with a flirty wink.
" I would like-", he started but stopped when Bree's older sister walked over , she looked stunning in a black sheath dress and matching headband in her ginger curls.
" Sebastian", Genevive squealed as she kissed the guy, she then turned her gaze towards Diana and gave her warm smile. " I didn't know you were back, I see you've met my fiancée "
Great, another redheaded bitch with a guy she wants.
Margot, still standing, three finger waves to the twins as she makes the decision to head back to the party. Maybe she should take Mr. Leibovitz up on his offer of "needing anything" it would be weird, but way more fun than strutting around the party and watching Ian and Bree and Diana and all of these other people do whatever.
Margot stands by a palm tree and thinks about the pros and cons of the though, something she has never done and probably won't do again. The picture is getting pretty clear in her mind, she should totally screw him. Of course until some chick steps on her toe.
"Asshole." she says, slightly ticked and her high wearing down.
"I am, so sorry." the girl slurs. "D-do I know you. You sure look like somebody that I think I know?"
Margot examines the girls features. Light brown hair, a sharp bony nose, green eyes, and high cheek bones. Should she know this girl?
"I can't recall." Margot says (courtroom response) completely clueless.
The girl puts a razor sharp champagne pink nail to her lip and raises a brow. "You just look so familiar."
Margot just stands there, this girl is wasted. She finally sticks out her hand for the girl to shake. "Margot Herring."
The girl returns the shake, eyes still deadlocked on Margot, searching to remember. "I-I don't think so, but i'm Sasha. Linton." she introduces herself.
Margot has never met a Sasha Linton or even a Sasha in all of her life that she can recall.
"So what are you doing over here, Herring, whom I can't remember?" Sasha asks, almost soberly.
"Avoiding Belmont society of course." she jokes (it was the truth though).
Sasha stares at her somewhat intensely. "You're wanting revenge. Aren't you?"
Who was this girl?
"Yes." Margot says eagerly. Sasha Linton was catching her drift.
"It's a ex lover." Sasha declares, quizzically.
"Former. And I took him from a friend."
"Why do you want revenge?"
"He's screwing her other best friend, who i hate than the fire of thousand suns."
"You want revenge for your friend?"
"No. Myself."
Sasha stares at Margot with that intense stare again. She licks her top teeth and then opens her mouth to speak. "Simple. Kill them."
And for the first time in years, everything in this town seemed to make sense. She needed to find Diana and convince her that homicide is the answer. The right answer.
