Bumping Into Mr. Popular

Chapter 8

Weeks flew by and the camp trip was over, back to my normal , boring life now.

I was already on my way to my home after telling my mom and step dad goodbye.

The few weeks have really been energetic and tiring especially after my team lost to Kalique's team.

I haven't heard from him much after that talk at the lake he seems to be really busy but he doesn't forget to leave good night text messages before I went to bed.

Ring! riiing!!

Ugggh! I wonder who likes to disturb my sleep on a Monday morn...... Oh snap it's MONDAY I have school!! I jumped and grab my phone and answered it when everything registered.

"Auum Hello?" I said sleepily

"Get your ass downstairs in 5 minutes or we'll be late for school punk!" I heard Daisy yell through the phone and cut the call.

I dashed to the bathroom grabbing any clothes closest in reach and I didn't bother to comb my hair I just pinned it up which resulted in loose curled falling out. I groan got dressed and headed downstairs shouting to Hillary before heading to Daisy's car since I wanted to give my car a break.

"What took you so lo..." Daisy stopped when she notice my appearance.

"Don't!" I warned and she stopped.

"How was camp?" She asked changing the subject and I shrugged.

"Otherwise from seeing kalique there it was....." I didn't get to finish before she cut me off.

"What! You saw kalique? OMG! What happened? what did he say? what did you say? What was he doing there?"

"Daisy breathe and I'll tell you at lunch. Now focus on the road before you get us killed!" I stated

And that's when she pressed gas. I arrived at school on time and as I burst through the door with Daisy on my side Brianna came running up to us.

"Hey my favourite species did you hear about the new girl it's all over school her name is Alexis didn't quite hear her last name." She said and eyed my appearance with a weird express saying 'what the hell happened?' And I just gave her the eye I gave daisy earlier and she dropped it.

I got my books from my locker and headed to History class. I was about to take my seat at the back of the class near the window when books were placed at my seat at the same time I looked up and was face to face with the girl I met at camp whose bunk I took.

"You again! I got here first I want this seat" She squealed.

"FYI, this is my seat now get out of my face and stop wasting my time." I said calmly causing her to shiver by now the whole class was giving us their undivided attention.

"You won't get away with this." She glared.

"That's two empty threats now." I said and flipped her the bird.

The teacher walked in right as she was about to say something.

"Class we have a new student her name is Alexis Payne and I'd like for you all to give her a warm welcome." She said and pointing towards the girl who I was just having a verbal altercation with.

Just as I was biting in my apple I stopped half way my mouth agape when I saw the new bimbo wrapped up in Kalique's arm walking through the Cafeteria.

He had stop texting me from the weekend before school now he's arm's in arm's with Alexis who is sucking off his face, such sickening view.

He passed my lunch table he looked up and saw me he couldn't even look into my eyes.

Well that was painful.. My mind informed me.

Knots started to form in my belly and all I could now feel is anger. Angry at myself for letting my guard down. I hate him.

No you don't you're just upset.
Shut up! I yelled internally.

I got up and stomped out of the cafeteria and headed towards the bathroom. I wasn't going to cry I'm not that stupid I won't waste my tears on people that are not deserving of it. I was just angry I needed to take it out on something so I punched the door, then the wall, then the mirror and it shattered all over the bathroom. By now my hand was throbbing with pain and bleeding but I ignored it I jus felt nothing but rage. Brianna and Daisy burst through the bathroom door and squealed when they saw my hand.

"Jezusus Christ! Sequin what have you done to yourself. Come you need to go the nurse before your hand gets infected." Daisy yelled concerned laced in her voice.

After getting my hand dressed I decided to leave school early, I couldn't focus after what I had just saw.

I took a taxi home since I didn't have my car and I persuaded Daisy and Brianna that I was fine going home on my own.

I got home and luckily Hillary wasn't home. That's when I saw a note on the refrigerator from her which said she had gone out grocery shopping. I threw the paper in the bin and went upstairs to my room.

I plopped down on my bed and took out my phone I haven't looked on it since lunch. When I turn on the screen I saw over a hundred missed calls and text messages from Kalique.

"Cece?"

"Bubbles?"

"Sequin?"

"we need to talk, it's not what it seems"

Were just a few.
I won't give him a chance to explain I did that the last time and look where it got me.

I went downstairs took out a tub of ice cream and went in the living room to put in my favourite show to watch in my sulky times 'Mean Girls'.

I hope this will cure the pain. I sighed and relaxed my tensed mind and body.
