The next week, Cindy had a dentist appointment. Andrew was once again alone. I took a deep breath and walked into the classroom. Everyone seemed to notice my change in appearance. I borrowed some of Tina’s clothes over the weekend. Today was the day I’d finally confront Andrew. I walked in with black and red pumps, black designer mini skirt, and Original Lisa Loisel red blouse. My hair layered so my blond highlights would show just right. To give my ensemble the final touch I drowned myself in Chanel 7. I waved directly at Andrew. Then casually strolled passed him and talked to Eric the boy behind him. Andrew flared his nose and flexed his jaw. Out of no where, I felt like someone was behind me. When I turned around, I found out it was Andrew. He hugged me from behind and asked if I wanted to hang out after school. I grinned. “How could I refuse?” I giggled.

“Great”

Then, I confidently sat next to him.

As the day went by, I began to feel less like wimpy, girly, boy-crazy Kim. It was as if I had metamorphosed into a confident, powerful, Kim. Everyone seemed to not only notice the difference in my appearance but in my attitude. Jacque even complemented me! I think? Now I just need to find out what “Tu es tres mignon et en mon cuoer” means. Anyway it wasn’t till I saw Cindy and Andrew walking together again that I came back into reality. Quickly I grabbed Eric and started giggling LOUDLY. “Did I miss something?” Eric questioned confused and yet pleased.

“Just play along,” I pleaded. At that moment, he began to play with my hair. I could tell Andrew was jealous. It was so hard to pretend not to notice him clenching his fists repeatedly in rage, when Eric started walking me to class with his hand in mine. When I turned a corner and Andrew was out of sight, Eric and I walked our separate ways.

When I got to my seventh period, I notice Derek didn’t even talk to Mary. I figured this would be my last chance to get a date for the dance. I strutted right up to Derek. Confidently took a deep breath. And….walked back.

*******(AN/ The music has a better effect here)********

“Hey baby!” Andrew called as he leaned in to kiss me.

“Something like that.” I replied moving out of his reach.

“What’s wrong?”

“Nothing”

“Good cause, I really care for you,” He coaxed as he tried to kiss me again.

“Sure, listen I don‘t feel comfortable with you and Cindy being together so much”

“And………I didn’t say anything when you were paraded around school flirting with Eric”

“Well say what you want, but I didn’t kiss him!”

“What are you talking about?”

“I saw you”

“I can explain.” He said as he reached out in a last attempt in kissing me

“Don’t. Just save it!” with that I shoved his jacket to him and walked off.

That night I got at least 20 text messages! (10 from Andrew, 1 from Derek, 1 from Cindy, and 9 from Tina) I deleted all Andrew’s texts even though I really wanted to read them. Cindy’s text was about how she was gonna go to the dance with Andrew(DELETE)! Tina was going on and on about how she is going to the dance with Brad (Omg)!

Finally I read Derek’s:

Hey Kim! Are you ok? I heard you just broke up with Andrew. He’s a total loser any way. I would have never let you get away from me! If ur still lookin 4 a person 2 go 2 the dance w/ I would b stoked.

I couldn’t believe he had asked me to the dance how odd.
