The girl who cried wolf

Chapter 6

"How was school?" Alex said sarcastically, "Make some new friends? Someone we can eat?" Tim looked up at him, Alex was hanging upside down in a tree. Alex usually wore jeans, but today, he wore suit pants and the matching jacket. 

"Where did you get those?" Tim asked, dropping his books and climbing the tree. 

"Someone was dumb enough to leave it in their house, in a locked bedroom with a locked window," Alex flashed Tim a smile. Tim just rolled his eyes. 

"I found out there's a party tonight." Tim said, sitting beside Alex's legs. "I have a very cute date."

"But... the question is, can we lure her away from the party?" Alex asked,

"Of course, have you seen me? No one can resist my charm." Tim said, Alex scoffed.

"Whatever makes you sleep at night," Alex muttered, Tim pushed his legs off the tree. Alex fell face first to the forest floor. "I take it back." Alex called up from the ground.

Clara looked at herself in the full length mirror. Her face was much prettier than it was at lunch, the full piece suit was gorgeous on her, over the top of them she wore new DaisyDuke shorts, with cork wedges.

"Wow." Olivia said, leaning against the doorway, wearing low rider shorts, a tiny polka dot bikini and huge sparkly heels.

"Cute shoes," Clara said, pointing to her shoes.

"I know right?" Olivia replied, lifting up one leg, "They're so shiny!" She admired them.

"Are you ready?" Clara asked, Olivia nodded like crazy, her hair was super long today, she had her extensions in.

"I look super cute, I know," Olivia struck a pose, she had bright red lipstick on and dark eye makeup.

Clara laughed, she stood next to Olivia, looking in the mirror, the pair of them were like supermodels. Olivia looked up to Clara, who could not stop staring at the mirror.

"You look like a totally new person."

"It's weird cause I still feel like me." Clara said, "It's like I'm wearing a mask." Olivia jumped,

"You need red lips!" She shuffled back to her room, Clara following, as soon as she stepped in, she felt a thousand eyes on her. Olivia's walls were absolutely plastered with posters, Clara had a couple Regina Spektor and Coldplay posters, but Olivia had everyone, from Justin Bieber to Madonna. 

"Here," Olivia said, putting bright red lipstick on Clara. "Samantha says everyone in our group will be wearing red because we're getting some type of surprise..." Clara puckered her lips. Suddenly, her Mickey Mouse telephone rang, she powerwalked to retrieve it.

"Hello?" Clara asked into the phone.

"Hey Clara," Melissa said, "What's up?"  Clara resisted the urge to correct her that as she was the one who called, something must be 'up' with her. Clara than remembered the fight and decided to go for the safe option.

"Not much, how about you?" Clara replied, trying to seem cool.

"I was thinking that we could go do something fun, like.... go bowling, than catch a movie, make snow globes?" Melissa asked, Clara laughed at the snow globes. It was their thing to make snow globes, whenever she was feeling down, Melissa would come over and they would spend all night talking and creating globes from jars, glitter, and tiny Bratz dolls. They would pretend like they were voodoo globes and every time they shook them, Melissa would think that a mean girl in the world tripped over herself and ruined her face. They hadn't done that in a while.
