Mary kate or whatever her name is lifts her head up, looks like she finally woke up.
"How much longer 'till class is done?" She says rubbing her eyes.
"I don't know, can't you read a clock?" There's still 50 minutes left but telling her's no fun.
"You're the one on your phone, is it really so hard to look." She raises an eyebrow and sits all the way up, she looks over at the clock and sighs.
"Ew don't breathe so loud by me" I hate loud breathers, can't stand it.
"Okay oxygen police, aren't you fun, who even are you?" She rolls her eyes. How does she not know who I am? I'm popular and famous.
"Don't pretend you don't know me, everyone knows me." I return the eye roll, a little dramatic right back at her.
"I try my best to not know other people, like you" With her flat voice I have no idea if she actually doesn't know me or if she's pretending not to know me. Either way I don't care.
"Just stop talking to me" I look back at my phone, the teacher is practically blind so she can't see. I guess that's one good thing about old people.
I get a text from Emma.
EMMA: JULIA DID YOU TELL PEOPLE I HOOKED UP WITH CHASE????
whoops. I wanted to make the year a little interesting.
JULIA: what? who would spread that rumor? i am so sorry girl :(
JULIA: i heard it was bowie
EMMA: BOWIE!?
EMMA: >:(
EMMA: Thanks julia <3
JULIA: ofccc bsf
Now this is getting good, I hear peoples phones going off, drama time.
It's only been 40 minutes of school.
BOWIE: julia i dont have time for this im in bio what shit did you pull
JULIA: huh????
Playing dumb has never failed me.
BOWIE: 🖕🏾
Rude. I guess if more people turn on Bowie then this could be my year to win prom queen. Yay me!
I set my phone on the desk and sigh loudly, this prompts other the other girls to check their phones, it's almost too easy.
I try listening to the teacher again but she's literally just talking spanish, how do you explain spanish in spanish? I'm just gonna go back on my phone.
I look back on the desk but it's gone.
ITS GONE?!
I need my phone, it's my life support, if I don't have my phone I will quite literally die a terrible death.
I look under the desk, in my pocket, in my backpack, it's gone!
There is no where it could've gone, unless someone took it.
I look at Mary Kate but she's back asleep so it couldn't be her, I guess Priya could've reached back and grabbed it?
Honestly, I don't care that much, I can just get a new one at-
Wait.
No I need that back.
Shit.
In my notes app I have all the dirt on every person I've known.
So pretty much everyone.
I guess it's some sort of burn book?
Whatever.
I need my phone back.
If that get out I'm done.
Over.

The bell rings. I'm hesitant to walk to biology. On one hand, I need to find out what happens with this Chase and Emma thing, on the other I don't know who has my phone.
I'm never taking my eyes off of anything important again.
As soon as I walk into biology everyone turns to look at me and whispers.
It's been 30 minutes!! Did it already get out?? I can't stress, stress causes pimples.
Emma's in this class, she gives me the stink eyes, looks me up and down then walks towards me.
That's my thing!
"Julia, we need to talk."
"Ohhh hey Emma... so I didn't actually mean to call you a fugly rat, you know rats are..."
She stares at me blankly.
"...What?"
Oh, that's not what we're talking about.
"Nothing." I quickly say. I need to pull it together.
"What were you saying about me being a fugly rat?" Some of the other girls overhear this and listen closer, honestly I don't care if they hear.
"I actually meant whoever spread that nasty rumor about you is a fugly rat! yeah."
"But...you spread that rumor"
My eyes go wide, who told her?
"Wha- what? No I didn't, someone lied to your face and told you that girl." I try to comfort her, I bet Bowie ratted me out, he's such a buttknuckle.
Emma pulls out her phone and shows my alt account that spread that rumor. Shit. How did she know that was mine?
"Uh, that's not me" I have to play this off.
"Do you ever stop lying? I know it's you, it's from your phone." She scoffs at me. Whoever took my phone is ruining my life.
Literally! Who knows what else from my phone is going around...
"Listen Emma, you should be thanking me for saying that"
"Thanking you? Why would I thank you? Now Chase is following me like a dog trying to actually hook up with me! Gross! All thanks to you."
That sounds like a thank you to me.
"You're most certainly welcome"
I smile at her and walk to my desk waiting for my other girls to sit with me.
None of them do.
I wave them over, they go somewhere else. Ignoring me.
I'm sure other people have done worse! They need to realize maybe I'm just giving them a reality check. One they've needed for a long time.
Class starts and I'm left sitting alone, even that creepy girl has someone sitting with her. How am I alone? Usually people are arguing that I should sit with them! I'm sure they just need time to realize how much better I make their life.
