CHARLOTTE GREENE!
The students roar.
"Woohoo! Go Charlotte!"
"Go Greene!"
"FINALLY!"
Laurel hugged Charlotte. "Go up there! Say your acceptance speech. I'm really proud of you!"
Charlotte smiled excitedly. "I'm proud of me too, " she whisper-shouted. "Alright, I'm gonna go."
Charlotte made her way to the stage, gracefully walking up the steps. "First off, thank you all so much!"
The crowd cheered.
"I couldn't have done this without you!"
Charlotte rambled on about what she would do for the student body, and her "speech" was pretty unoriginal and cheesy. Really. Cheesy.
"Aw, you guys. This is such an honor. I think you all are gonna make me cry!" She said as she waved among the crowd and then hugged the principal. She proceeded to wipe away a fake tear.
"Wow, VERY political, Miss Greene." Laurel said, punching Charlotte's arm.
"Ow! Ha, anyway...Will you help me take down my posters after school? "
Laurel sighed. "Sure, I guess."
."Great!" Charlotte walked away and greeted her admirers.
Just then, the chatter and noise stopped. A tap on the microphone caught their attention. Principal Evan spoke into the mic.
"There's been a misunderstanding."
Charlotte looked at him then looked away. "It's probably not important."
"The new president of Vermont High is Laurel. Laurel Jamison."
Charlotte was shook. "WHAT?!"
