Chapter 7: Chloé 2.0

~Chloé's POV~

After Amber kicked me out of her house, my first instinct was to call Brandon. I then realised that he was probably going to root for Amber, so I quickly pushed that instinct away. After Brandon and Amber, I had no one else to go to. My mother and father don't care about me, my older brother and my twin sister so we're basically on our own. The thing is, my own twin sister hates me, and my older brother is at least twelve years older than me so we never talk, only things like 'Can you pass the sugar?' or 'What do you want for dinner?'. And even that is rare as he is always away on business, and comes back for at least a month altogether in a whole year. The same goes with my parents, they do stay at the house, but my twin and I are already asleep when they come back and still asleep when they get up and go to work. It's a tiresome life, I tell you. I just feel lonely and small. No one understands me, and I could always feel that Brandon and Amber were closer than with me. So yeah, I was the third wheel basically.

When I walked into school today, I felt like a loser. I quickly power-walked past Amber's locker because I was scared she was already going to be there. She wasn't. I usually lean next to it on my phone, probably playing Candy Crush or something, but today I couldn't, obviously. Instead, I walked straight to form and sat on the opposite side of the classroom from where I usually sat next to her. I was doodling on a piece of scrap paper when I heard a 'clacking' sound, like heels on tiles. Oh no. It will be the cheerleading group, the people I fear the most out of everyone. Well, perhaps I'm scared of Amber and Brandon the most, now that they think I officially hate them. Sigh.

"Cookie! How good to see you! May I ask why you're sitting in my seat today? What's wrong with your loser chair today? Got a little poop on it, just like your life?" Alexis sniggers, causing the rest of her clique to laugh with her. I could feel tears pricking at my eyes, but I blinked them down. I wouldn't let her see me like this. Instead, I took a deep breath and looked up at her, full in the face.

"I'm sorry, but I have just recently discovered that Amber and Brandon are dorks, and they don't deserve my company. As for your seat, I completely forgot." I was surprised by what came out of my mouth, but it was like I had released a new burning hatred for Amber Roberts. Alexis smirked and nodded at the other girls.

"Well honey, I'm glad you've come to your senses! Congratulations, you've passed the test." She smirks, something glinting in her eye.

"Wait...what?" I asked confused. What on earth was she talking about?

She rolls her eyes and talked to me like I was a five year old.

"Chloé dear, you are now officially part of our group. I knew you were the right one, the other girls weren't sure but I just knew you'd come to your senses. You have just declared your hate for Amber Roberts, so we welcome you with open arms." She smiled at me. Woah, was Alexis actually being nice? I was momentarily taken back by her words, the words still processing in my brain. Was this a trick? No, I don't think so. She looked like she genuinely meant that.
