Double Star.

11: My Choice.

PoV Noelle:

I was walking quietly down the halls to have lunch. Sarah was absent this day making me wonder why, I tried to call her several times but her phone was off. I feel so lonely especially when Ashley disappeared right after the class ended, pretending that she was not hungry but, I know her long enough to say that the true reason behind that is that she's meeting someone. I could tell by the way she's acting so weird lately, head on the clouds and drawing some weird stuff like hearts and the letter ''E'' inside of it on the table. I would like to know who's that crazy guy who made her so in love, he might be as complicated as her, especially when she doesn't seem like the type of girl that falls in love with whoever. I could've simply asked her but I don't think she would answer me honestly, she would even avoid my question. I mean, if she wanted to tell me about her love stories, she would have done it long ago since I'm her best friend, but she preferred to stay silent and keep that to herself, making me think that I'm not her best friend anymore.

Whatever, she's not the only one who has an appointment! I also have a meeting with...food obviously and no one's gonna stop me from eating. And guess what's gonna be served in the restaurant! Lasagna ! my favorite food of all time. Just thinking about it makes me even hungrier.

Arrived at the cafeteria, it was crowded and noisy; of course, I would've not been surprised if it wasn't the case. After all, we're talking about lasagna! After a few moments of waiting, I managed to get a plate and when I turned around to take a seat, I accidentally shoved someone, which made me spilled my entire dish on his new clothes. When I looked up to see who's that miserable person who ruined my food, I started to curse myself internally. Of all the people in this school, why did I have to spill my plate on this person? Why? The girl was looking at her dirty shirt with a big ''O'' on her mouth, then suddenly, she glared at me with anger and hatred. But my mind was thinking about one thing, my plate, wasted on this slut. What a loss! I wanted so much to eat this lasagna...

- "Oh no my plate ! ". Once I said that she pushed me back strongly, which almost made me fall on the ground if I didn't hang on to a chair.

- "You dared to overthrow your fucking dish on me and you have the gall to act like nothing's happened! I'll show you what real hell is, bitch ! ". Oh my God! What a high-pitched voice! Even my cat makes less deafening noises. Her eyes were red with anger, it looked like she wanted to kill me.

The person in question is called ''Britney'' and the worst part of all this is that she is the girlfriend of my beloved stepbrother. She used to come to sneak out in our home all the time until my mom decided to put her out, and that's when my problems with her began. Damn, I think I messed up this time, I'm sure the jerk of Taylor will take her defense and I'll become the laughingstock of school, again.

- "You lost your tongue or what ? ". She arched an eyebrow, looking at me, up and down with wickedness.

- "Sorry ...". I whispered against my will, looking down to not throw my middle finger in her face. 

- "It's too late now bitch! I'm going to make you regret the day you were born for dirtying my t-shirt that costs ten times more than your stupid ugly face! ". She was going to push me but I managed to dodge her attack, and without paying attention, I tripped her up and her high heels didn't help her to keep her balance so she ended up falling on her knees. Oh no!

Laughs were resonating throughout the room. Although seeing that bitch on the ground was very funny, I didn't find the pleasure to laugh because, not only a huge crowd had gathered but also the way she was looking at me like a serial killer, was enough to take my breath away and convince me that I'm really in big trouble now. Without overthinking, I took advantage that she is on the floor and tried to make myself a path to escape from this nightmare. But unlucky like I am, someone stayed in the way, not letting me go. When I raised my head to know who is this madman who wanted my death, I froze in place. What a great reunion, all that was missing was the prince!
