Hey guys. I haven't been updating often because I'm on Vacation far from home. I'll try to update more.

Sadie sat infront of her mirror putting on her lipstick. She rubbed her lips together and smiled then she looked back at Charlotte.

Charlotte sat on Sadie's bed waiting for her to finish her make up. "We're at least thirty minutes late for school right now."

"I don't think Mr. Pearce will mind," Sadie smirked.

Charlotte looked at her. "What do mean by that? Is it true?"

"What?"

"That you two have a thing."

Sadie furrowed her brows a bit confused about the question. Then she smiled and shrugged. "I can't answer that."

"Why not? I tell you everything. I gave up Poppy for you-"

"You didn't give her up. You just stopped talking to her in school."

"I can't just drop her. It's been two weeks and because of you, everyone still treats her like a criminal. I don't know why you had to lie."

"I didn't lie. I just removed some of the truth."

"Are you inviting her to your party?"

Sadie nodded and smirked. "She's VIP."

Charlotte furrowed her brows. "You're not going to do something to her, are you?"

"No. I'm inviting her to apologize. I swear."

Charlotte squinted at her. "I don't know if I trust you."

"You don't have to. It's not like you ever have."

Charlotte snarled.

"Anyway," Sadie stood," I was hoping that you would help me out today. Give out the invitations?"

"Like every high school movie, ever?"

Sadie squinted at her. "Mason will help me-"

"He won't. Especially with me there with you."

"Yeah, well, when you falsely accuse a guy of rape-"

Charlotte rolled her eyes.

"- then you deserve more than to be ignored. You deserve to be put in jail."

"So, we do still hate Poppy?"

Sadie smiled. Then she grabbed her car keys and walked over to the door.

Charlotte glared at her and followed.

Charlie walked out of class with Fisher. "So, I'm standing about five feet away flipping out. And Mason decides to prove that he's braver than I am. I tell the kid, there's a difference between brave and stupid."

Fisher chuckled.

"But the idiot didn't listen. Before I could say look out, the lizard is dangling from Jason's finger by its mouth. And he's squealing like a little kid."

"That's cause I was," Mason shook his head and stood in front of them. "Telling Fisher about my fight with the lizard? I can't believe you two are suddenly besties."

Charlie shook his head. "We're not besties. We're friends, something you don't have."

"Funny you say that. Since you two were always saying you never wanted any."
