Forbidden Chemistry

'Princess'

"Vanessa! Vanessa!" Lexi shouted at the top of her lungs, running towards me
at what looked like 60 mph.

I stood still staring at her in turmoil, she eventually reached me where I was at the end of the school corridor and she suddenly dropped her hands onto her knees.

She gave me the one-minute finger whilst grasping for breath. "You- you'll ne- never guess wh- what!" She said, continuously intaking large amounts of oxygen after each word.

"What? You finally realised Aliens don't exist?" I said humorously.

She immediately rolled her eyes at me and stood up straight again so we were face to face.

"Look what I've got!" She said waving a paper in her hand like a 3 year old.

"What?" I said in a deadpanned voice, looking uninterested. ".... We'll um have a look for yourself" Lexi said slightly hesitant about handing the paper over.

I took hand of the paper and meticulously skimmed  through it. " why are you showing me this?" I said unamused of what I had just read.

"What" Lexi said slightly confused, As i handed the invitation back to her . "No, you can't be serious Nessa we have to go" she continued.

"There is no way in hell I am going to this halloween party which is especially  held by Ciara!" I expressed slightly annoyed that she expected me to go.

Me & Ciara have had a long-standing feud between us for as long as I can remember.

There's always been competition out there and the biggest ones involved my bros & me and Ciara's brother and her.

Her family are the owners of a widely known and successful enterprise. Vanderbilt enterprise; they make billions each year but compared to my family they're nothing.

we make trillions of pounds every year never a penny less. But we prefer to tell others that we make Billions instead, so that we don't get questioned as to how our money is made.

It was normal if you were from a family that made millions or billions since it's a private school for children of celebrities or people from affluent backgrounds.

Dad has a fake business set up just incase he gets interrogated by any forces or pompous People.

So whenever anyone asks us how we are incredibly wealthy we just mention our fake business.

"Oh come on, you could do with a break from this melancholy trance your in" Lexi said nudging me.

"If he's going I'm not going" I said adamantly. "Plus I don't want to seem easily deceived by Ciara, if I go she'll think that I've succumbed to the continuous wars we have" I finished.

"Ugh but she always comes to your parties!" Lexi whined. "Yeah but only to ruin them" I reminded her.

"FINE, if your not going I'm not going" she persisted.

"Okay then don't go, it's not like I'm stopping you" I said flatly.

"Well technically you are because your not coming" she said with a cheeky smile appearing on her face.

"It was your choice to come up with the ' if your not going I'm not coming' idea" I said signing inverted commas with my fingers.

"I'll make a deal with you, if you can give me one good reason to go I'll come" I said crossing my arms and leaning against the wall, silently waiting.
