The Three of Us

Chapter 8: Tia's POV special

"Did you see Abbey?" Gina asks me. Gina's one of my two BFFs. My second BFF is Zoey. "Strawberry lipgloss. And she's hanging out with Derek! I'm so much hotter than her, though! Did you hear? Derek asked Abbey out! I'm so going toilet paper her house! She is getting egged!"

I just laughed. Abbey deserves it, she's a bitch. She announced to our popular table that she was going to vote for Luna, and called me concieted. Me? Concieted?! That. Is. Bullshit. She took a chunk of our popular table, too, to one of the deserted tables. And Luna and her nerdy friends, Lisa and Lexie (don't even get me started on them) started sitting with them too. Lexie was my best friend. We were the best of friends. But, I chose the popular group and asked her to come with me, but she said, and I quote "I would rather be with friends who love me for who I am, not someone who who is my "friend" because I'm popular." All the popular people (including me) want Lexie to be part of our group. But she won't. Her loss.

"Derek? Her? What a disaster."

Derek was Gina's ex-boyfriend. She'd liked him since FIFTH GRADE. Mother. Fucking. Hell. He would come running back to her after Abbey breaks his nose--literally. Abbey got onto the boys' wrestling team...beating up Jeremy, the wrestling team's star player. Like I said, she's a bitch, but a badass bitch. I think she's going to get her motorcycle license soon, I dunno when. But I swear, her engine's gonna have nail polish in it the first day she gets here. And the gauges will be sharpied-over. Not that I would know who did it.

"Sup?" Zoey said, coming over. She had a few bagels. "House special, it''s brunch lunch."

"I hope you know those carbs are not going to help you be a skinny model," I said, Gina nodding. Zoey shrugged. "I'll be all about that bass, bout that bass, no trouble."

"I thought you didn't like that song?" Gina asked. She nodded, and shoved her earbuds into my ear. "Runnin' down to the riptide..."

"ARGH!!! DO YOU KNOW TASTE?" I growled while she sang along. I pulled the earbud out of my ear. I didn't like the song Riptide.

"I like that song," Abbey said, walking up to me. She took the earbud and put it in her ear. Zoey and her started singing.

"Bitch, I have a twelve-foot radius around me that no losers can cross," I said.

"Oh, really?" she asked, angry. "Fuck off."

"Uh, no," I said. Next thing I knew, my nose cracked and hurt like hell. She threw a punch at my stomach, then my eye. And I got tomato soup poured all over my hair.

"MOTHERFUCKING--"

"Bye," she said in a bitchy voice that was way too sassy. Oh, she wanted sassy? I'd give her sassy.

"Fuck off," I growled in the most bitchy voice I could muster.

"Whatd'ya think I'm doing?" she challenged. "Burn!!!" came from the crowd that gathered around us. People started taking pics with their phones.

"I think you two are needed in the principal's office," came the voice of our math teacher. I gulped. I looked over Abbey's table, where Lexie, Luna, and Lisa were sitting. Lisa was laughing her head off like the bitch she was, whether it was at me or not I couldn't tell. Lexie was looking at me with a smirk--not as bitchy as Lisa, but still. Luna gave me a look that said 'At least ACT like a responsible candidate'. I grudgingly stomped after a cheerful Abbey. This girl shouldn't be so cheerful. Sooner or later, that "pretty face" she claims she has is going to be in the hospital. Along with the rest of her. And I'm gonna end up in jail.
