It didn't seem like dad would agree, when I found out that he had, I was bewildered by his sudden change in opinions over my now new friends. I didn't want to question it too much but I did have 2 questions that had left me addled.
How had V gotten my phone number? And, how did she know where I lived? I wanted to ask her but chose not too. I didn't want her to think I was scared of her or something.

A black Audi had pulled up in front of my house. Black tinted windows blocking the view of who was inside. Thankfully, V stepped out from the back seats. She had her very own personal driver, probably ever since what happened to those 7 kids, her parents didn't want her going out alone. Who knew what could happen to their precious daughter? She made her way over to me, beaming down at where I sat before she spoke.

"Come on, let's go back to mine"

We didn't talk much during the drive back to where V lived. It was a very silent journey but I didn't complain. It was peaceful.

We arrived outside a penthouse. It was no surprise that she lived here. With the amount of money her family posses, everyone knew they had a better house than everyone else in the town. Vanessa never bragged about how rich her family were. She always said that money can't buy happiness, unless you've just broken up from a relationship and could do with a good glass of wine then it can but, we're underage to drink. However that wouldn't stop us at all. As we sat in Vanessa's room, I decided that it was a good time to mention that someone was on the hunt for the diary. Netflix was on the TV, but Vanessa was on her phone, scrolling through Instagram.

"Mrs Rodriguez asked if I had seen a pink diary in the library yesterday. She said a girl had gone to the library looking for it. She didn't know who the girl was, she had her face covered up" I told Vanessa, who had now locked her IPhone8 and lay it down next to her on the bed. At the mention of the diary her ears pricked up. We all wanted to know the same thing. Who's diary was it?

"What? Why didn't you say anything earlier? How are we going to find out who she is —"She had more questions but, I cut her off before she could continue to ask.

"Actually V, there might be a way. I hadn't thought about this before but, I just remembered something." Truth was I had remembered the tapes that are in Smith's office and how there would be a recording from yesterday. All we needed to do was get the tape and watch it. After I explained that to V, she was already on the phone telling Beth to get the others to meet at the diner, they needed to hear about this aswell. The more people we had, the easier it would be to pull this plan off.

Sat in the diner, in our usual booth, with a new person, Max, he was apart of the football team. He knew ways to get in and out of the school and how to easily distract Principle Smith. I explained everything to the others before we discussed our next moves.

With the plan set out, I insisted on a back up plan in case plan A failed and we needed a plan B, so we can hopefully succeed. Chris didn't want to but, I convinced him. Thank the lord and saviour.

Back at Vanessa's, now joined by Beth, the two of them had started to plan outfits for the following day. They also planned my outfit, they wanted me to look apart of the group even more. Due to the fact that I had no key to get in and get clothes, Vanessa had very kindly let me borrow some of her clothes. Which, were infact a whole lot more revealing than what I would usually wear. Maybe this will get his attention.

We woke around 5:30 the next morning. The two girls both planned to make me a different person. I did not feel like myself but, I surprisingly felt so much better as a person.

In the black pencil skirt, burgundy top with gems around the collar and black heels, I really looked the part. My hair had been curled loosely by Beth and Vanessa had gone full out with my makeup. I had never wore this much makeup before in my 17 years of being alive but it looked pretty. I looked pretty. Different.

"Damn, aren't you the little spice" Beth exclaimed upon seeing me, as I walked out of the bathroom after getting changed. After 2 long hours of beautifying ourselves, we finally left for school.

There were still 15 minutes before first period so, we headed for the lounge, knowing that Noah, Max and Chris were going to be there. As we walked down the hallways as if we owned the school we had many, many comments from lads. This felt odd, exciting. So this is what it's like to be popular? You get attention no matter what. I felt a sudden urge to be like this everyday. The power of makeup aye?

The lounge room was rather bare, with Noah, Max and Chris all sat amongst Kacey and Courtney who had now been added into the plan. They had all been talking and laughing about something we were unaware of.

"Holy shit, is that Tori?" Everyone turned to the doorway where V, Beth and myself stood. Courtney had got up from her seat and made her way over to us after realising what she asked was rather true.

By the time lunch arrived we had quickly run through the plan, which Noah had written down on paper so no one would forget. He liked to be certain everything was right.
Beth and Chris are going to get the tape out of the office. There are no cameras. Tapes are kept on the shelf besides the painting of the school.
Noah and Max keep Principle occupied. Make up some BS that there is a leaking pipe in the locker room. Or something like that. Keep him for at least 15 minutes.
Vanessa and Courtney are to distract Miss Hyde, ask her if she has had her hair done. Make her feel pretty.
Tori and Kacey keep people out of the reception until Beth and Chris leave the office. Once that is over walk away, back to the lounge room.

With that, we all headed to our places. We needed the tape.

A/N
Will they get the tape, or will they get caught?

I legit didn't think this would be any good but I don't know what people think sooo yeah.

Love y'all

Peace out♥️ xoxo
