chapter 5 - let the bitch wars commence
Isabelle waited until Serena had calmed down before attempting to talk to her, she waited outside Serena's sociology class for her.
"Look Serena, about what happened between me and Romeo at lunch-" Isabelle launched straight in to it as soon as Serena stepped out of the class room
"what did happen between you and Romeo exactly, Iz?" said Serena in an overly calm voice
she's keeping her cool, she's going to try and make me beg for it.
"well...nothing , but you-"
"Right, exactly nothing happened," replied Serena, eyes wide trying to look sincere "and that's why I got soo upset. It was really pathetic, honestly if only you could see the way you stared at him, I felt soo embarrassed for you. I mean, I'm one of your very best friends, and it really hurt to see you making such an ass of yourself"
"I didn't stare at him" Isabelle lied, but she could feel the heat creeping up her neck to her hairline. FUCK she thought
"trust me, Iz, you were definitely NOT cool," Serena threw her arm around Isabelle and lead her over to Their lockers so that she could put her books away, she opened her locker and examined her reflection in the mirror that covered the whole door of her locker
"look, its obvious that it's me Romeo has been coming on to so don't make a fool of yourself over him okay" and with another fake smile and a slick of lip gloss, she sauntered off to the sports building for cheerleading practice.
Despite the fact that she wasn't on the squad she liked to put in an appearance and make the girls feel inferior, it was try outs day.
Isabelle stared after Serena and wondered what the hell she was talking about. if its not clear to her who Romeo is interested in then she is either stupid or seriously just being a bitch, it must really bother her, thought Isabelle.
Maybe I should back off. Its inevitable that she will somehow get him with her. And he was a guy, what guy wouldn't want someone like her.
Brad doesn't like her, she thought in the back of her mind.
Isabelle made her way over to the sports building and went over to her locker, getting her cheerleading uniform out.
Jessica's locker was right opposite Isabelle.
Normally they would talk for a while and laugh together, but Jessica proceeded getting undressed.
She took her bra off. Isabelle never understood why girls did that. They were going to be jumping around doing flips. Didn't they find it uncomfortable?? The boys would be on the pitch too, she guessed that would probably be the reason.
Isabelle got changed in silence.
Before Jessica was about to leave, Isabelle placed her hand on Jessica's arm.
"aren't you speaking to me today, Jess?"
Jessica raised her head in fiend surprise,
"Oh, hi, Isabelle when did you get here? what's up?" she asked in that over perky stereotypical cheerleading voice that gave us a bad name.
I'm in love, that's what up, thought Isabelle, tell me about love at first sight, Jess. is it real?? does it happen?? does it last?? And what should I do about it??
instead Isabelle said "Serena is really mad at me isn't she?"
Isabelle looked away "well, it really wasn't Fair of you to make a move on romeo. Serena did get dibs on him"
