A/N yes, in case you haven’t noticed I’m trying to not swap POV’s too often unless I have to J, like I did in this chapter.

“Oh my god you are not gonna wear that much makeup! You look like one of those cake-faced-bitches! ”I grabbed a makeup wipe and attempted to scrub off most of Taka’s makeup which she had caked on like face-paint.
“So? We need to look as much like them as possible is we want to befriend them!” Taka said slapping on some more of my mum’s skin colour powder stuff – yeh I know nothing about makeup and neither does Taka.
“No! If you wear that much makeup they’ll just look at you like you’re stupid and laugh at you, just put on the stuff you know how to put on,”
“Like, moisturizer and lip balm?” Taka asked picking up them up.
“Yeh, but you can substitute them for this stuff; for example you can use this” I picked up a small tube of darkish pink stuff, “instead of lip balm and this,” I picked up a small skin coloured tube thing which said ‘BB cream’ on the front, “Instead of moisturizer, capeesh?” Taka nodded.
“Okay, hopefully it looks alright. What about this stuff?” Taka held up a thin black tube, mascara – my favourite.
“That’s mascara, my favourite,” I said proudly. Yep, sad I know but I love it no matter how horrible I’m with makeup.
“What do you do with it?” Taka asked as she pulled out the mascara brush and looked at it curiously.
“You put it on your eyelashes and it makes them look awesome!”
“Alright then,”

Taka and I walked up to the school gates after hours of walking up hills as steep as cliffs and fighting off a bunch of nerdy leaches. Well, I may be over exaggerating a little since my house is just down the road from the school but seriously! You try walking that far in heels! I’m gonna kill Taka for this; she knows I hate heals and she knows they’re not allowed at school. Well, I think so anyway – never tried to see if you get in trouble.
We walked in the school gates of the best know school all across Australia. Wanna know what it’s known for? Yeh, it’s known for having the worst behaving students in Australian so yeh… mum sent me here because she figured that I’d blend in well. Apparently I could win the award for the most disobedient and useless child in history. Taka only goes here because her parents have no money.
“Taka, I think these heals are a little over the top,” I hissed to Taka through the side of my mouth as we walked and everyone stared.
“Nah nah, it’s fine,” Taka replied, smiling at me.
I heard a bunch of whispers and stuff as we walked past the administration or office as most call it. They must think we’re new here…
“Hello!” chirped a familiar voice. Taka and I groaned. “You must be new here! I know everyone here and I have certainly not seen you here before! First, you two ladies must go right over there to get your timetable and stuff! Here! I’ll show you the way!” The teacher’s pet linked her arms with ours and tugged us towards the office.
I looked over to Taka who shrugged.
“Soooo, what are your names?” Judy asked.
“Ummm, I’m errr…” Taka started.
“She’s Tiffany and I’m Alexis, “I butted in, choosing the two most unique names I could think of. If we tell her our real names then she’ll know who we are. Yeh, I was NERDY at school and so was Taka but we still hate the teacher’s pet – the ‘perfect one’.
