Ok. Not to sound too dramatic or anything but this all takes place in 8th grade, Fourth block, in Mrs. Bushnells class. It was after lunch where I sat next to the two biggest thots I ever met. Lmao, great way to start a book am I right? Of course I am. ;) But anyways, the main thot was Julia Tands. One of the side hoes of the well known marijuana squad. She had long brown hair, brown eyes, and not afraid to step up to a bitch. Okay now back to the OTHER thot, James Lugan. James had brown hair, was very tall maybe around 5'6 (for me that's tall because I'm 5'1.) Now listen. Everyone I mean EVERYONE shipped James and Julia but they were never a couple. They were the best of friends and would have each others back for whatever reason.
During the final week of 8th grade, I sat right next to James and guess what? The other thot sat right behind him. I had to stand TWO HOURS of them talking shit about everyone and I have to be there listening like I was Kermit the frog and sipping my tea and acting like this shit wasn't any of my business. (Meme, please google that if you don't get it.) Before those days I tried to befriend Julia. The top bitch because she can lower my social life from a ten to a two very quick and I don't want any problems with the marijuana squad. (I will get to them in future chapters.) Anyways, the only way to befriend her was to let her copy my tests every time she didn't study. "Hey, you, can you move your paper over to the right side so I can cheat?" (This bitch didn't even know my name >:U) "Sure."I replied with the widest smile I can give. So it was like this. That was my life. My life was like a prostitute, but except giving away answers for the return of friendship.
While I was there doing my work with an amazing fine gel pen that I loved so much like yes bitch yes. It was time for lunch, normally we leave our stuff in the classroom and go to lunch with the whole class. Which we did but I just wanted to add that part for you to understand where I'm going right now. I left my gel pen on my desk, planning to find it where it would be like always. I was the first to leave the room running to the lunch room and to look for my squad and hoping there's extra seats. After everyone had their lunch, I came back and Julia was in her seat behind James's and I look on his desk.
There it was. My fine gel pen just nonchalantly sitting there. Calling me to grab it. I look at Julia and I'm there like "Julia is that my pen?" She didn't answer but she looked at me like I was insane or if she were saying "Does it matter? It's just a pen." Well no it's not "just a pen." It's MY pen. Which was supposed to be sitting on MY desk. I waited for James to come back to his seat to ask him about it. (Just in case it really was his pen or he just thought he found it and thought he could use it.) He came back and I asked him THE question. "Hey James." Trying to sound relaxed. "Is that my pen you have there?"
"No this is my pen." He responded. He didn't even look at me in the eyes while saying that too SMH (shake my head.) The motherfucker lied and got away with it. I felt like I lost a child, a friend, maybe a family member. It's too late now. I will never see that pen again. But as dramatic as I am, I started texting my squad about the incident and I was like "This thot took my pen and lied to my face." They responded with a "Take pics." But of course being the dumbass I am, I aimed my camera at his hand. (Not showing my friends his face.) JUST his hand. I repeat, YOU CAN ONLY SEE HIS HAND HOLDING MY PRECIOUS PEN IN HIS NASTY ASS FINGERS. #Eww #DisgustedEmoji
I successfully took the photo without anybody noticing. Or so I thought.
Back to the final week of school, there was this test VERY important test in Mrs.Bushnells class and I didn't need no one to get between me and that A+ 🙅🏻👋🏻. But of course, Julia comes up with a huge grin on her face to as if to say "let me cheat?" I immediately said "no." knowing that if we were to get caught It would ultimately bring my grade down by a ton.
She gave me this ugly bitch stare, which if you haven't seen one yet. It was like the Devils stare, cold, dead, and heartless.
She then said "Are you sure about that? We don't want James knowing about those photos." My heart dropped. Now I had to deal with the fact that Julia thinks I have a crush on the most irritating person I ever met, but she would tell EVERYONE. I didn't want to be known as the creepy stalker girl at Loggers Run Middle School. So I did what any person would do in that type of situation. "What?" I asked trying to sound very confused. "Never mind." Julia said. After that I couldn't wait to get out of that class, and just take the test to get it over with. I couldn't help feel something was going on behind me, you ever have that feeling that you're being watched? Well there was that feeling in that fourth hour class. I turned around to see Julia still looking at me with cold eyes like "I know what you did." But me being the boss ass bitch I am, looked her back and never took my eyes off her too. It was like having a staring contest but instead of the feeling in your eyes burning to the point of closing, you have that feeling of control and the fire was burning within me. I was angry. But I didn't show it.
James came in right when Julia and I were having a bitch face off. My heart dropped. Right when he sat down Julia, without taking her eyes off mine slowly moved in onto James's ear and whispered something that I couldn't translate. But somehow I knew, she did tell him.
She knew I was looking. Her eyes told me that I was roasted or to "step up." In a type of way. I was holding my breath while James turned around just a few inches away from my face looking into my eyes while I looked into his eyes. I turned to Julia just trying to take a handle on my life for that very awkward moment. My consciousness was telling me to fight her. "Start shit Victoria." It said. But my other half was like "You already paid for that trip to Universal fam." Or it was like "Don't waste that money for the end of the year trip, you got this." Before anything came out of my mouth, Mrs. Bushnells silenced the class and gave out our tests.
That bitch Julia was saved just in time before she heard the words I was about to say "If you're going to talk shit behind my back, might as well say it to my face."
(Fast forward to the last day of school.)
Well I did manage to get a B+ on that test and get to go on that trip to Universal. I also caught James trying to steal my OTHER pen too. "You wanna give me that pen James?" He didn't respond but just gave it back, his face turning as red as a hot summers day. But now in high school I see them around and can't help but look at them in the eyes remembering the moment where I almost got into my first fight at school. Or that moment where James thought (or he still thinks.) I'm a creepy stalker who takes pictures of boys.
