The Supers(On Hold)

The So-called Friend

The bell finally rang and I can't get out of this class room fast enough. The rest of the morning goes smoothly, figuring I don't have to deal with "him" in those classes and I head to lunch.

The schools lunch is always delicious considering this school is full of Politic 's , Hollywood star's, and millionaire's children. I walk to get in line with a cream colored tray. I pick out a chicken salad(with strawberries, dried cranberries, crushed almonds, poppy seeds and fresh spinach leaves), a packet of sweet and sour dressing, lemon flavored Dansi water and a fresh M&M cookie. I pay for my lunch and go out to the courtyards to find a place to eat.

I find my favorite spot, under a cherry blossom tree which is surprisingly still in bloom, and plop down with my food.

I am about to eat the first mouthful of my delicious salad when a shadow is cast over me. I only needed one guess to know who it was.

"Mind if I join you?" Keen said holding his large lunch.

Figuring he wouldn't take no for an answer I simply shrugged,as I take a huge bite of my salad, planing on ignoring him until I was finished with me food then leave.

Sitting he began turned to me with a serious expression on his face, "This maybe a random question but has anything weird happen to you lately?"

Surprised, and abandoning my original plan I answer, "Uh no. Why do you ask?"

A look of relief flashed across his features but was instantly replaced with a look of carelessness. He shrugs, "Just curious."

I turn and look at him, "That isn't a good enough reason--"

"Yoohoo, Yalena!" A to familiar, unpleasant voice called behind me. Letting the conversation go for now I turn around and see Mara flouncing toward us with her group of lap dogs practically licking her shoes as they come nearer. They get to us and Mara looks at me expectingly.

"Hi?" I am very confused as to why she is talking to me when she made it crystal clear this morning that she didn't want to ruin her "reputation" being seen with me, let alone voluntarily speaking to me in the open. I take a sip from my water, "Did you want something?"

She giggles as I said something funny. "Do I have to want something to be able to talk to my favorite sister."

I am so shocked that I choke on my water and go into a coughing fit. Sisters! Really!? I knew something was up or I had died and went to hell.

"You on alright Yalena?" Keen began patting my back trying to keep me from drowning.

Mara's attention locks on Keen. She smiles big, "Who is your friend?"

" I 'm Keen," He has his arrogant smirk back on his face as he holds out his hand.

She shakes his hand with one hand as she twirls a strand of her hair with the other, "Hi I am Mara, Lee Lee's sis."

'Lee Lee? Someone shot me.'

I look at the way Mara was looking at Keen. She bit her bottom lip looking him up and down completely ignoring me. 'Well I guess that answers my question as to why she went out of her way to talk to me.' Feeling bored with the situation I go back to my wonderful lunch.

"So... Keen, Eric Warner is having this party tonight... would you be free? It would be a great opportunity to get to know people at the school," Mara bats her mascara crusted eyelashes, as though that would ensure him saying yes.

"That sounds great," he says with a cool, laid back tone, "Will I see you there Lee Lee?"

My eyes snap up at that ridiculous nickname. Glaring at him, I am about to snap.

"Of course she's coming, it wouldn't be a party without her," She said giving me a look daring me to contradict her.

I sigh in defeat. "Yah that will be totally fun Mar Mar," my voice dripping sarcasm as I throw a dumb nickname right back at her face.

She shots me a evil look which instantly disappears when Keen turns his attention back to her.

"Great I'll be there," He flashes his signature smile but turns to me smirks and walks off.

Mara waits until he is out of ear shot and turns to me with a scowl. "He is mine. Don't embarrass me at the party, got it."

I raise me eyebrow, "Tots Mar Mar and by the way you have him. That is, if you get him." With that I flip my hair barbie style and skip off leaving Bow Bow the clown speechless.
