Luckily we had chicken.

Lisa spoiled us with breakfast in bed when our cake burned to coal. She couldn't stop complimenting the food, so I'm guessing that she liked it.

My Sunday was chilled, and I loved it.

Then comes Monday. I just told Trent and Stacy about the diary, and why I didn't tell them everything. "Aw James, why didn't you just tell us?" Stacy said smacking my arm.

"We would've understood," Trent said.

Bailey walked into the cafeteria, "Is this seat taken?" She asks me, pointing at the chair next to me. I just shook my head.

"Where's Jasper?" Stacy asks looking around. Just then he came and explain that some teacher held him back.

He immediately gave me a look once he saw Bailey sitting at our table. I just shrugged. She was silent, just eating her fries, but then she opens her mouth, "I'm presuming you all know who I am, but hi, I'm Bailey."

Trent holds out his hand, "Trent, but you can call me whatever you like." She chuckled but shook his hand.

"Stacy," she waved and Bailey nodded.

"I'm Jasper and what are you doing at our table? Aren't you supposed to be at that one?" He pointed at the table where only the 'popular' kids sat.

"Well Jasper, can't I sit here, or must I leave?" She stood up.

"You're welcome, I just wanted to know what your intentions are." She sat back down. I was thinking the same thing.

"I think Hottie- I mean she should do something to prove that she isn't lying," Trent said seriously. I would've laughed at what he said, but he was so serious that even I believed him.

"Well, what do have you in mind?" She challenged him.

"Throw your food out on... mmm... Parker Adams." My eyes widen. She glanced in my way, but still took her tray and dumped it out over Parker. He stood up the second the food hits him.

"Who the he-" He was silent when he saw that it was Bailey. "Why did you do that?" He said in a normal voice, and not the one he just used before he was about to murder the person who did that to him.

"Oops, sorry Parker. I guess I didn't see you." She apologized, but it sounded very sarcastic to me.

"It's okay," he shrugged it off.

She came back, "I'm gonna get some more food." She walked away. I wasn't surprised at seeing how quickly he forgave her.

"I like her," Trent said.

"You like everybody." We all said in unison.

He pouted, "Yeah, but she did that," he pointed to Parker. "It takes guts."

"He's right," Jasper said.

"This is sooo juicy," Stacy said squealing in delight. "This is front cover news!" She starts writing.

"Why front cover?" Trent asks, his face filled with confusion.

"Why not?" Bailey said taking a seat. "What's the front cover?"

We all looked at each other, "My new idea for the paper." Stacy said.

"And what's that?" Bailey asks. My palms are getting sweaty for her. I also hate to lie.
