~16~ Tears and tantrums.

*Alexa*

We were seated at the table and I was the only girl so it was different. A lot different. But good different.

And then as I was about to voice my thoughts, the last three chairs were occupied and then I looked up to see the Clo's.

"Oh look who it is. Dumb, dumb and dumber. Don't worry Chloe, I reserved dumber for you."

As usual, the guys gave me a look of awe and appreciation.

"Jeremy sweetie, what does your cousin have against me?" she asked Jeremy and I could see she was wondering whether I had told Jeremy about our encounter.

And she wanted me to be embarrassed that I supposedly had a crush on my cousin.

"I don't know Chloe." Jeremy said with an obvious sigh.

"Oh and I'm not his cousin. Isn't that right, Jer?" I asked knowing to her, it probably meant something else.

I heard everyone near and on the table gasp at my implication especially when Jeremy blushed and waved me away.

When people were too busy spreading what they had just heard around, no one took notice of the wink Jeremy sent my way, I tried my best to wipe off the grin on my face.

"You're such a dirty liar!" Chloe's sidekick spluttered and I couldn't help but laugh at that.

"Is that all the comeback you've got? Seriously Chloe, i just may have to give your Dumber title over to Dumb Number One."

I could see my comment was sweet on everyone's ears but the sidekick's comment was processing in their brain and I could see they didn't believe me.

Jeremy, Callie and I already knew I would have to kiss Jeremy at some point but I didn't mind cos it wouldn't be my first kiss or anything like that.

In fact I had enough kissing experience so it didn't mean much to me so I stood up and walked to where he was sitting next to Chloe.

I lowered my head, and put my lips next to his teasingly and I could see everyone's eyes widen as they watched this all, play right in their front.

I was just about to touch my lips to his when Chloe jerked him back and slapped him.

I OBVIOUSLY knew there was no way the queen bee would let her property be claimed right in front of her kingdom so there was no need to worry about kissing Jeremy any time soon.

The whole cafeteria was silent and I could see the wheels turning in Alex's head.

I strutted back to my seat and began picking at my pizza.

"So when were you guys gonna tell me you were swapping fluids?" Dylan asked, whispering quietly in my ear and I just waved him away.

I couldn't help but take a peek at Jeremy and Chloe (like everyone else in the cafeteria) who were having a hushed argument when suddenly Jeremy pulled her to her feet and basically dragged her out, causing me to smirk.

The clones made a disgusted sound before walking away, leaving their salad behind.

"Don't forget your salad!" Cheryl appeared from nowhere, yelling as she threw it after them making the whole table laugh.

She then whispered something into the ear of a guy whose name was Evan or something like that.

The guy stood up, giving her an appreciative glance before sitting in the newly vacated chairs while Cheryl sat opposite me, in his seat.

"I don't throw pity parties. Just by the way." she stated making me look at her, "but if I did, I'd definitely make sure I had that pizza." she added, gesturing to my pizza.
