The Chosen Few (On Hold)

Chapter 14

A/N - So before I start this chapter, I wanna let you know that I'm going to add some new characters to the book. By that I mean, more galactic characters from different planets that aren't on the cast of the book in the first part. I felt like I needed more people in the future plan for this book. Anyways, enjoy the chapter, like and comment!

Me and Macey are walking to the school entrance together and talking about random stuff. I'm happy that Macey's not bringing up anything that happened the past day, but I didn't tell her what happened when her and Adrienne were gone also. I just want no drama for today, I already determined that this morning.

I knew after the whole scene we made yesterday, somebody's going to question me, but I'll just avoid the confrontation. I'm pretty embarrassed and ashamed of acting really horrible over a boy. I know I didn't do anything really wrong, it just felt wrong. I felt a rush when I kissed Josh and I was giddy all last night, but now I have this emptiness in my stomach,  and I'm anxious, like something bad's going to happen.

We walk into the school and head for the cafeteria for breakfast. I hadn't realised they served breakfast, because I was so caught up in my problems the first few days, but now I'm starting to pay more attention to my surroundings.

We walk into the cafeteria and my nostrils are hit with the sweet smell of syrup. I sigh, and head straight for the waffles. Of all the things I've experienced on Earth, this is one of my favorite things humans have created. Macey laughs at me, and follows.

"If you like these waffles, then you'll really love Waffle House." She says through a grin. I stare at her in awe.

"There's a freakin place dedicated to Waffles?!" I say in awe. She nods and I grab her and squeeze her into a hug.

"You know where we're going on Saturday." I whisper in her ear. She laughs, and we get our trays.

We sit down at a relatively empty table. I start to anielate the stack of waffles. I barely even notice when a certain someone sits down across from me.

Luna sits there, armscrossed and a evil look lurking on her face. Someone's still angry about getting rejected. I smirk and look at her.

"Is there a problem Luna, you look a little, how you say, tense." I say, trying to sound innocent. It takes everything in me to not hop on the table and shout in her face, "THAT'S AN L!!!!!"

"I have a problem, more like you! You knew I liked Josh, and then you deliberately kiss him in front of my face to make me mad? How low can you get!?" She snarls.

Macey looks confused. For a second I forgot she wasn't at Karter's house. My smirk and calm demeanour vanishes. I am livid. How DARE she accuse me of being a man stealer. She knew I liked him first.

"You wanna know what's low? Low is when you tell your friend you like a dude, and she goes out of her way to get with the dude. But what's even more sad is when the back-stabbing friend doesn't even WIN the guy after doing all that work. " I say. People ooh, and say stuff like, "Shots fired". I didn't realise we had a crowd, but sure enough, people had accumulated around use and we were the big scandal they were watching.

"Since when is being needy and forcing a guy to kiss you "winning" a guy. He likes ME, not you! I know you were all excited and started to feel special because some guy payed attention to you for once, but guess what? He doesn't want you! He played you! He just got another girl to to sling around his finger." She said.

Ooh, that stung a little. I can feel my insides heating up, and my hands start to glow light red, and fire flickers from my hand. No, don't loose control. I look at Luna again and let her have it.

"Yeah you're right, he WILL have a girl to sling around and that's you. If he even looks at you, you're ready to act like the slut you are, and you can't even do that decent. At the end of the day, he'll just use you, take your goods, and leave you on your butt."

"Honey, I don't think you understand. I'm the FULL package. I got the curves, the abs, the hair, and what do you have. Nothing."

"Umm, that don't sound like no full package. It's like a package that forgot half of the thing you ordered. A girl's suppose to be smart, kind, confident, for all I know, you could have boob implants, butt augmentation, and fake hair extensions. If you think that's what he wants, be my guest.  But when he sees what you are under all that fake crap, don't come crying to me. Oh, but he won't figure that out, cuz you two are NEVER going to happen. Let's go Macey."

And with that, me and Macey leave. Well, more like Macey trying to catch up to me, because I'm walking in really fast strides, trying to get away from the crowd of people yelling a whole bunch of stuff like, "ROASTED!", or "Get WRECKED!". I just roll my eyes. Why do these people find it so amusing that I probably just damaged my whole friendship with this girl.

I walk to my locker, punch in my number, and I slam it open. I grab my books- Well I try to, but all I see is red from rage- and slam the locker shut. It ricocheted, and made the whole row of lockers vibrate. Macey looks at me wide-eyed.

"Woah, cool it Mercetie. I know youre angry, but you have to calm down. And also, what happened. I knew you weren't happy yesterday but-"

"Would you STOP rambling on Macey, you're being annoying!" I snap at Macey. I regret the words when they come out of my mouth. Macey looks hurt, and no sigh.

"I didn't mean it like that, I'm just really mad at that no good, piece of-" I say before Macey cuts me off.

"OKAY, OKAY, OKAY! I get it, just don't finish that sentence." Macey says, chuckles for a second, then stops herself.

I then realise I'm shaking, and by shaking I mean serious shaking. I didn't know I was that mad. I sigh. what was I thinking. Never in my wildest dreams, did I think I would ever get in a fight over a boy, and with my best friend of all people?

Now I understand why my planet said love was a weakness. It makes you do crazy things, and now I am a first-hand witness. My parents would be staring down at me, giving me disapproving looks. They would say, "Why would you let a boy tear up your friendship, especially over a boy you just met." I make the thought go away from my head. They're not my parents anymore, they're part of my past, but even now, I still feel ashamed.

I let Macey guide me to our class with my head held down, ashamed at my actions over a measly human.
