Chapter Seven; Mean Girls Play Dirty

Olivia Whitney Clarke

I couldn't believe it. I had really thought Tyler had liked me! It's all that stupid Ginnie's fault! Maybe I have to make him jealous. Maybe, I need to play hard to get. Or am I not pretty enough? Who cares! I have boys lining up just to date me. I will make him jealous by using Tanner! Perfect. They're best friends. Tyler will be crawling back to me in no time. And then, Ginnie will be left broken hearted. Now I just need to sit back, paint my nails, and maybe lose a pound or two. Tanner will fall for me, gosh he's so stupid! I wiped my face, applied some lip gloss and stood up.

"Tanner! Tanner, come sit next to me!" I called.

I saw a smile spread across his dorky face. "Kay'" he called and jogged over.

"Hey!" I patted the seat next to me and smiled.

He sat down and his sandy blonde hair fell loosely in his eyes. It was a shame he was so cute, but just so stupid.

"You wanna know a secret?" I whispered in his ear.

"Sure!" he said, a little too eager.

I leaned forwards, closed my eyes, and lightly planted a kiss on his lips. I opened my eyes and whispered, "I've always wanted to do that."

He looked shocked. Wow, he's dumb. Then, he leaned forwards again and kissed me, catching me off guard. I freaked out and lost my cool.

"Ew! Get off of me you dog!" I screamed.

He pulled back, completely confused. "But- but I thought-"

"Ugh no! I was just trying to get Tyler's attention. You didn't think I actually liked you, did you?" I wiped my lips dramatically with the back of my hand.

"But you said you did," he said, but he asked it more like a question.

"Whatever, just get away." I said.

I saw him walk to the front of the bus again and hang his head. Ugh, is he seriously crying over me? What a dork. I saw Tyler get up and start walking towards me. Oh, my god. Did this actually work? Tyler sat down next to me.

"Wanna know something?" he said, linking hands with me.

I giggled. "Of course."

He leaned forwards. I was sure he was gonna kiss me but then he said "Stay away from my best friend, and never talk to either of us ever again!"

He pushed me away and left. Woah, what's with the attitude?!

"It was just a joke!" I called after him, but he wouldn't turn around.
