Before I forget

Chapter one

" You're going to that dance! " Amy said while they grabbed a lunch tray.

Cara looks at the greasy pile of food Ms. Hoshwit flopped onto her tray. Cara scrunched up her nose at the sight of it. "I think I'll skip this one. I'd rather stay home and sleep thank you very much. "

They both grabbed an apple and sat at an empty table. " You have to come! It's the biggest party of the year!! Plus I'm you your best friend, so you have to do what I say. " Cara shot her a nasty look.

Cara and Amy have been best friends since third grade, but they are more like sisters then best friends. They are so close that they could just walk in to each other's house and it wouldn't be weird. One time Cara got home from basketball practice and Amy was just sitting on her bed watching a movie.

Amy has long silky blond hair that shines it the light. She has dark glossy eyes that has a smiley look to them. She is very kind and big hearted, but if someone makes her mad, they better move to the other side of Earth and change their name before she literally breaks their necks. Cara has light brown thick hair and light green eyes. She is athletic, smart, and a little annoying, but a big wierdo at the same time.

Cara snapped out of her train of thought when she heard a tray slam down at her table. One of Amy's other friend sat down after. His name is Mark and let's just say he is a huge jerk. " What are you two lesbians talking about huh? " Amy just sticks her tongue out at him while Cara rolled her eyes.

Not to long after, Jessica and Brendan sat down. Jessica was short with red hair and grey eyes. She always took things seriously and she was really cocky. Brendan had black hair and chocolate eyes. He was pretty tall and he played basketball. He was the quit one who never speaked, but when he was just around one person that he really liked, he could talk for hours. People kept telling her that he liked her, but she never believed them.

" So, who is all going to the dance, because I'm going and I still need a date to sign up to compete for the best couple spot! " Jessica said while pulling out a little mirror and lip gloss. Mark snickered while jabbing his plastic fork into his mashed potatoes. " I hate to break it to you sweet cheeks, but it's not a competition. Even if it was, you would obviously lose, because you suck at these types of things. " Jessica straightened her back at threw her chin high in the air. " Can it Mark!! You don't even know the true meaning of competition or even winning!! " This made Mark throw his head back and laugh. He then looked at Jessica and smiled. " Totally. I have no idea what those mean, oh wait, I do!! I'm captain of a winning streaked football team red. " Jessica just slouched and rolled her eyes.

" Anyway, " Cara said after a while. " Back to the dance topic. I don't think I'm gonna go. " Amy then threw her fork down in frustration. " You are too going! I will even drag you here even if my feet were bleeding and my hands were cut off!! " Cara rolled her eyes and whispered, " That's disgusting. "

Everyone else said that they were going and the topic was dropped. Everyone but Cara were talking about some new movie that was going to be coming out in the theater soon.
Cara was ignoring them, until she looked up and saw that Mark was staring at Amy. Cara's eyes furrowed. Why was Mark looking at Amy like she was a large four layered chocolate caramel cake that said " Eat Me!! "? Amy didn't seem to notice, so Cara just went back to playing with her food.

Cara snapped back into reality after a while to see Jessica twirling her hair and batting her eyes at Brendan. " So how bout you cutie? " Cara cringed as Jessica spat out the word " cutie ". Does she seriously think she has a chance? Jessica continued, " How would you like to go out with a nice, sweet, hot girl? " Mark suddenly looked confused. " A nice, sweet, hot girl? I don't see one of those? " Jessica then reached across the table and punched Mark I'm the arm. He just gave her a what-did-I-do look. Brendan just blushed and quietly said, " I'd love to, but I was kind of hoping I could take a girl that I've liked for a long time. " Jessica suddenly stood straight up slamming her hands on the table. " Fine!! I guess I'll go find someone else!! I didn't even want to go with you anyway!! I'm not that desperate. " she then stomped off.

Brendan looked down and frowned. Mark then swung his arm around his shoulders. " Cheer up pal. Your way out of her league anyway. I bet she sucks at kissing and tastes like your grandma anyway! " Mark hen started making kissie noises in Brendan's ear, which caused him to smile a little. Cara then looked at the clock and saw that it was almost time to go to history. She then told them goodbye and left not wanting to be late.
