Post It!
Hi everyone! Due to popular demand I am posting the first page and a half of Boys R Us. Don’t ever say I don’t love you.
Shout out to Lauren for surviving her first tornado! YAYYYYY! The good news just blows me away. 
TTYW,
Lisi
THE BLOCK ESTATE
WESTCHESTER, NY
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 11th
5:35 P.M.
Claire Lyons trudged across the immaculately manicured lawn of the Block Estate, feeling the same way she felt after a worthy contestant got voted off American Idol: Technically, she hadn’t been the one everyone text-rejected. But she felt the sting just the same.
Cam Fisher flirt-punched her shoulder. “You okay?”
“Huh?” Claire glanced up at her crush. The warmth in Cam’s one blue eye and one green eye shielded her against the late afternoon chill. She buried her hands inside the sleeves of the burgundy Briarwood Tomahawks jersey she wore over grey leggings and flirt-punched him back. “Easy!”
“Ow!” He laughed. A grape bubble gum-scented cloud puffed from his mouth. It smelled like love.
“Worried about Massie?” Cam slipped his arm around her shoulder and left it there for approximately three Mississippi’s before stuffing it back in the pocket of his red hoodie.
Claire nodded, nibbling her Blistex-coated bottom lip to keep from purring. Now was not the time to think about how she and Cam were so close or how he could practically read her mind. And now was definitely not the time to sneak an intoxicating noseful of Drakkar Noir. Now was the time to focus on being there for Massie, since the rest of the Pretty Committee was avoiding her way Lindsay avoided food.
It had been less than forty-eight hours since Alicia, Dylan, and Kristen had boycotted Massie’s Friday night sleepover, but to Claire, it felt longer than lent. She’d spent most of that time fielding four-way texts and calls from her friends, having no idea how to respond. Dylan vented about how she and Derrington could have taken their crush public a week earlier if it weren’t for Massie holding her back. Alicia bragged how much better her cheer squad, the Heart-Nets, was going to be than Massie’s, since Alicia was a superior choreographer. And Kristen kept moaning about bad sushi.
Massie, on the other hand, hadn’t reached out since Claire and Cam had shown up to her sleepover and found her totally alone. Her silence felt eerie, like the calm before the doors opened for a 75 percent off sale at BCBG. Because madness was sure to follow.
“Do you really think Alicia and Dylan’ll stay mad forever?” Cam’s gentle voice brought Claire back.
She wished she could tell Cam that the Pretty Committee would be back together before dinner. But Alicia and Dylan seemed done with Massie’s rigid, Lycra-ing ways. Done with the alpha controlling who they crushed on, what they wore, and what they did with their Friday nights. Actually, Claire understood their frustration better than anybody. Before Massie, she’d been perfectly content with her non-designer wardrobe. Now, she could barely walk past an Old Navy without imagining being shot at by a round of deadly comebacks.
“Dunno,” she replied honestly. She tried not to think about what could happen if her friends stayed mad. Sure, Lycra kept a tight hold on things. It could even feel suffocating. But it also held everything in its place. Without Massie, the Pretty Committee could fall apart. And where would that leave Claire?
“Sucks,” he offered, obviously trying to sound sympathetic and male at the same time.
It was adorable that Cam thought he knew just how dire the situation was. But no matter how many times Claire tried to explain, he couldn’t possibly understand. At this point a reunion for the Pretty Committee seemed less likely than a five-year wedding anniversary for Spencer and Heidi.

Wow… 1st post message is kinda annoying, so I won’t do that
Lisi, you are so cool, and if you read this message, your a saint x10. I think we’d be BFFL’s in real life. We should totally be e-mail pen pals! That’d be SO cool. If you have the chance, write back on e-mail!
TTYL, Emily

Hey Lisi, I love you so much I’m on your site during school! Beat that!
The excerpt is awesome. I hope Kristen gets another gigantic role in the book.
Kristen is the best. She’d make a better alpha then Massie.

ps. i liked how psily centered around each girl more and nawt just around massie as much.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:04 pm

When I read about Claire and Cam, all my insides warm up!
I haven’t even read all of P.S. I Loathe You yet (or the Summer collection: Alicia and Kristen! I’m sooo behind now), so this kinda gave a few spoilers… but it’s ok!
Thanks for the posting this - you’re so nice to us fans!

Ok, Lisi in The Clique Massie claims she’s allergic to nuts, but in Claire The Summer Series Claire says she’s seen Massie gobble a nuts over choclate luna bar (which they don’t make any more, wich stinks) when reffering to Massie saying she’s allergic to chocolate. Little confused, no biggy.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:13 pm
Lisi u r ah-mazing. I totally can’t wait for it to cum out.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:13 pm
Lisi -
Actually, grape bubble-gum smells like a crush. The official smell of love belongs to Orbit’s Watermelon Spring.
Duh.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:14 pm

and p.s… i loathe you. : ( : ( really lisi, im hurt.
-cher, your spoiled fan.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:16 pm
Lisi -
One quick edit - the last line in the sixth paragraph is missing the word,THE, right? Shouldn’t it be:
Now was the time to focus on being there for Massie, since the rest of the Pretty Committee was avoiding her THE way Lindsay avoided food.
Is there some sort of prize for pointing out your editorial shortcomings?
April 1st, 2009 at 12:18 pm
Cute! Thanks, Lisi! Oh I was just wondering: where does your name, Lisi come from? It is really different, well I think it is different; I’ve never heard anyone with that name.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:18 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 12:24 pm
BRU sounds gr8 BTW, Lisi! Shame they don’t sell the Clique books in the UK. Missing out on the Clique gossip is like missing out on a 50%-off-all-items sale @ Primark.
Sigh . . .

April 1st, 2009 at 12:27 pm
I’m in pain.
x 1000
I think I dislocated my ‘wedding finger’ as Diana calls it. Me and the girls in my class were making up a really kwl basketball-hip-hop dance and Millie (who was my partner) threw the ball akwardly so it knocked against my finger. It was throbbing like mad and I can’t bend it. That was hours ago, and when I went to Kennadi’s house @ 7:30, it still hurt and she said I might’ve broken it (cos she broke her thumb last week - well, technically, that suspended loser Kane Bullyment did). It’s still aching as I type. And if I sleep on it 2nite I probably WILL break it. Ouch!
I don’t think it’ll ever get better.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:27 pm
AH-MAZING!!!!! This is so INTENSE!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!! But please don’t put up anymore- PLEASE!!!!! I want the rest of the book to be a surprise!!!
Yours,
Nicole
April 1st, 2009 at 12:31 pm
omg!!!! i love the books! Lisi have you written/read any good books? im really bored with out books!!! please do a shout out to me! thanks!! rock on!!
April 1st, 2009 at 12:35 pm
Aww . . . Cam’s so sweet to Claire. I’m such Massie couldn’t find a better boyfriend.
Well, she probably could. But then again, I’m not one 2 judge. I’ve only read one full Clique book (Claire - about a gazillion and one times). But, still, U never know . . . Lisi’s the one controlling the plot. What she wants 2 happen WILL happen.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:35 pm
Yes, S. It is me. JoeJoe, friend of Lisi.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:36 pm
a page and a half and i’m already hooked!!
April 1st, 2009 at 12:36 pm
Aww…Cam and Claire are so cute together
P.S. I Loathe You was the best book yet
i thought Massie really deserved to have Dylan, Alicia, and Kirsten dump her. She was being a female dog to them, even though their her best friends. Its about time that happened.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:37 pm
Oh. Hi, JoeJoe! Soooo . . . Loads of girls have been signing a petition 4 U 2 post ur ‘novel’. I add 2 that list.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:38 pm
Ehmagawd!! I love this so far! I am still slightly upset about the Clique breaking up but hey, THATS DRAMA!! Recently, i have been able to relate to ur books very well. Thanks so much!! on and BTW thanks to you I am now starting to wrote stories! Hear that lisi, INSPIRATION!! Well better get started on my work :/. ILY LISI!!
April 1st, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Hey Lisi! If this message shows up on the blah-g, I will seriously hyperventilate. Every single time I try to post a comment, it never shows up
so I’m hoping it willl… <3
anyways, happy april fool’s day everyone! I sewed my sister’s clothes together :]
it was awesome!
April 1st, 2009 at 12:40 pm
I loved the first piece of the new book. I hope the everyone becomes friends again. And i hope massie finds someoine special for her life. Im glad you are continuing to write the books.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:40 pm
This is the closest I have ever been to the top! That’s exciting. And Lisi, I wanted you to know if you ever need help brainstorming more Glossip Girl flavors I love that kind of thing and I’ve thought of some already:
Gingersnap
Apple Lime
Cherry Peach
Royal Plum
Mandarin Orange
Warm Nectarine
Cozy Vanilla
Tangy Mint
April 1st, 2009 at 12:41 pm
I need 2 ask. Where U lousy @ maths, Lisi? Because I am. And most of my favourite authors have said in their biographies that they were hopeless @ maths 2. Cathy Cassidy’s got a reasonable explanation 4 h8ting maths . . . apparently, she’s allergic 2 numbers. Sensible enough, right?
April 1st, 2009 at 12:42 pm
Woah, Katie Mae! Those R awesome Glossip Girl names . . . sound delicious, 2!
April 1st, 2009 at 12:42 pm
yay!
April 1st, 2009 at 12:42 pm
YAY I’ve never been this close to the top! I wonder how far down Lisi reads?
April 1st, 2009 at 12:42 pm
ILOVECAMFISHER. Him and Derrick are my favorite characters- at least, I love the sweet Derrick that he usually is on fanfiction :).
Happy april fools day, guys. One of my guy friends kept pranking our teachers, putting a piece of tape under their mouse. Then, it wouldn’t move for them, so they’d freak out. It happened during the middle of our math quiz, lol :). Andddd when he tried the first time, he thought the teacher was out of the room, so he went up to the front of the room and was like “WHERE’S THE TAPE WHERE’S THE TAPE? Then he noticed our teacher sitting on a desk, and fell over- it was hilarious.
(:
April 1st, 2009 at 12:42 pm
HI
April 1st, 2009 at 12:45 pm
Oh my gosh, Lisi! You just made my day! (and week) YAY! AND MONTHS! AND YEARS! lol Thanks for the shoutout. MY POOL OVERFLOWED AFTER IT WAS INCHES BELOW WHATS IT was suppose to be. YAY! omg omg omg omg omg! UR AMAZING lol
April 1st, 2009 at 12:46 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 12:46 pm
OMG I heart tht Lisi! I can’t wait until it comes out!!! Y can’t it come out now???
Oh btw, I felt down about losing all the Clique contests you post here so I just wanted to say:
If I ever win a contest on your site I pinky swear (no lie!) tht I will send you the most expensive pack of Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume (w/ all the usual; body cream, or whatever else is in it) and will be happy on spending my money on my favorite author. Yes I will buy it for you because A) it’s my fav perfume and B) I want to spread the awesome smell (i sound retarted) annnnnddd C) because you deserve something sweet for all the work you put in your books.
Love
~A

April 1st, 2009 at 12:48 pm
APRIL FOOL’S!!!!
That was a joke Mollie and Natasha told Peter this morning. I eavesdrop ah lot. Which can come in handy, when I’m reporting gossip 2 our alpha, Kennadi.
April 1st, 2009 at 12:49 pm
Ehmagawd! Luvluvluvluv it!!!!!
April 1st, 2009 at 12:50 pm
Anne - How do U know Lisi doesn’t already have Marc Jacobs’ Daisy ?
April 1st, 2009 at 12:50 pm
Wow- I’m so gullible.
Today, my friend was like “You have a bug on your head,” and I started swatting my forehead. xD
April 1st, 2009 at 12:51 pm
i cant wait till boys r us!!!!!!!!!! sounds VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY awesomeee!!!
April 1st, 2009 at 12:52 pm
Ha, I found that too, JoeJoe. English is my best subject
This is unrelated to the Clique, but I want to tell the story of what happened on my way home today.
All right, so I take two buses home. I was on the 1st one and were about halfway to the school where I catch the 2nd bus. I was sitting in the last seat and smelled something funny, like plastic or burning rubber or something. I paid no attention to it at first. But then the bus driver pulls into a Hardees parking lot. We were all confused. Then we see that the front of the bus where the driver sits was smoking. I still wasn’t very worried, I figured that things like that can happen. But the smoke wouldn’t stop. That’s when I started getting scared. I thought Patrick and I (my friend who sits in the very back with me) would have to open the back fire exit. The bus driver told us to get all of our stuff and get off the bus. It seemed to take the little kids a long time and I was getting impatient and scared. We slowly made our way up the aisle and off the bus. By the time it was my turn to get off, the smoke was thicker and smelled terrible. (It wasn’t black smoke, it was more whiteish-gray) We made it off safely and all stood in a field of grass next to Hardees. The bus driver called 911, got a fire extinguisher, and started using it on the bus by her seat where it was smoking. A couple minutes later a police car showed up, then another, then 2 more. I was thinking “Oh my God, this is serious” But made light of it, telling my friends, “Hey guys, if the bus blows up, maybe we’ll be on the news.” They all laughed. After about 5 minutes, a firetruck pulls up. They used an extinguisher, but no fancy hoses. The bus, after all, had only a small fire inside of a panel, and we couldn’t see it from where we were standing. It was there, though. The police officers came over to talk to us and tell us that everything was under control. (They were all really nice. I have noticed that most all firefighters and police officers are extremely nice people.) We waited a few more minutes and another bus came. Our bus driver took attendance (they notified our parents) and the numbers of our 2nd buses so they could call and the buses would wait for us at the 2nd school. Nobody was hurt and it was all okay in the end, but it really was scary for a few minutes when we were still on the smoking bus.
But, yes, that is my (small) adventure for the day

I always fall for that :). That (when I’m wearing Uggs,) and “Look! I wrote gullible on the ceiling!”
One of the people in my SS class was saying that her mom woke her up and said “There’s no school today- it’s a snow day!” and she believed her, hahah.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:01 pm
Omg I can’t wait it comes out a week b4 myy b-dayy
April 1st, 2009 at 1:01 pm
Sonal, it’s your bedtime? What time is it where you live?
April 1st, 2009 at 1:02 pm
The book is called Losing Gravity (I know, I know, its not nearly as cool a title as The Clique…)
I sent Lisi the first chapter and I’ve left the decision up to her if it should go up on the blah-g…
April 1st, 2009 at 1:03 pm
DUDE! Lisi has to put it up!! We all want to read it, JoeJoe
April 1st, 2009 at 1:03 pm
speaking of his novel, joejoe can u post a little bit of it pleeeeeease? we even made u a petition! (in the other blahg)
April 1st, 2009 at 1:03 pm
Some day, JoeJoe’s going to super-famous and we’ll be like I KNEW WHO HE WAS BEFORE YOU >:D.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:04 pm
Catherine, I usually start getting ready 4 bed @ 9:00 (cos I usually have a
l-o-n-g lie-in be4 skwl) but I usually stay up 2 all hours reading in bed. There has never been a night, not even when I feel I’m gonna drop dead with sleep, that I’ve spent just trying 2 get 2 sleep. I ALWAYS read myself 2 sleep. Always.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:04 pm
Hahaha Meg, your totally right!!!
April 1st, 2009 at 1:05 pm
OMG!! Lisi, you have to make this book come out sooner!! It’s not nice to bring us to the edge and leave us hanging!!
April 1st, 2009 at 1:05 pm
When I start reading in bed, though, I get addicted to the book and go to bed even later than usual. So, I’ve been writing, instead- it really actually tires me out enough to fall asleep. (:
April 1st, 2009 at 1:05 pm
can u tell us what its about pretty please with sugar and marshmallows and stuff on top?
April 1st, 2009 at 1:05 pm
OMG! I cannawt wait until Boys R Us comes out! It comes out sometime in July, right?? Hopefully soon.
<3 u Lisi
April 1st, 2009 at 1:06 pm
That was REALLY good!! I can’t wait for July!!!! It’s so sad that it’s so far away
But we’ll enjoy is so much more with the wait!
April 1st, 2009 at 1:06 pm
JoeJoe - Don’t U DARE post any of ur story when I’m not on the Blah-g. Cos recently, I’ve been v. busy with apres-skwl activities. But I’d still luh-v it if Lisi thinks ur story should go on the blah-g. If U eventually sell it, like Meg says, we’ll B able 2 say that we knew who wrote it and that we were the first ppl (or girls) who read it!
April 1st, 2009 at 1:06 pm
joejoe one more question lol when will ur book be out?
April 1st, 2009 at 1:07 pm
Whoah I read myself to sleep too!! Hahaha. I don’t read every night but a large majority of the nights, yes I do. I am a regular visitor of the library, too. I go through books really fast. Right now I am reading the Harry Potter Series for the 1st time. I finished the 1st book last night.
And where I am it’s only 4:00.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:09 pm
I’m a total HP freak, too :D. I won’t say anything else, though, or I’ll totally ruin the surprises for you.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:09 pm
g2g girls (and JoeJoe). TTY2morrow (hopefully!)
P.S. Plz wish me luck in the major maths tests that will B taking place 2morrow and Friday. I will B RELIEVED when we break up on Friday 4 the Easter hols. So plz, if I could have ur lucky blessings and charms I would highly appreciate it. Thx!
April 1st, 2009 at 1:09 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 1:09 pm

Today at school…it was my friends b-day. and yes its on April Fools day. so she brought Oreos to school and made seven of them specially. she took apart the Oreo and put toothpaste inside so that it looked like cream. than all our teachers ate them and they were like “These are the worst oreos ever.!!!” We were cracking up the whole day. than we gave one to our principle. he didn’t even try too eat it cuz he knew something was up. also i smeared toothpaste from one Oreo unto my hand and shook hands with this random girl and she was stared at her hands and than smeared it right on my freaking JACKET! PLUS IT WAS CASHMERE!! she was really mad and I was like WHERE has your sense of humor GONE! she is kinda like a BIG NERD! im serious. she was seriously mad. she wouldn’t even talk to me. its like April fools day came and she totally lost her humor. seriously.
ttyl.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:12 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 1:12 pm
harry potter rocks! i thot i was the only one who thot so lol a lot of ppl dont like the HP books for some reason
April 1st, 2009 at 1:13 pm
Haha, I love that prank. I hope you used the kiddy kind, though!
April 1st, 2009 at 1:13 pm
I’m glad everyone likes them
I’m thinking I will too.
Do you guys like Twilight or HP better? Or is there no comparison?
And JoeJoe, is Joe(Joe) your real name?????
April 1st, 2009 at 1:14 pm
omg kelly i wonder wat that girls problem was. its not like u dyed her hand purple or something
April 1st, 2009 at 1:14 pm
The book does not have a release date b/c it hasn’t been sold.
The story behind the story is this - it was originally a film script. A friend of mine thought it would be a good book and sent it to a literary agent she knows. the lit agent agreed but doesn’t handle YA books but has -very graciously - agreed to forward it to agents she knows to see if there is any interest on their parts.
Only the first chapter has been written (although since it was already a film script its just a matter of me writing it in novel form…).
April 1st, 2009 at 1:14 pm
OMG Joe Joe???? Is it you? Still?! This just better and better. OKKAAY! I have a couple questions to ask you.
1. Can you give me a quick summary of your book?
2. Did you see the petition on last weeks blah-g that I made saying that you should post your story?
3. How come you don’t post that often?
April 1st, 2009 at 1:15 pm
HP, by far. I liked Twilight, but it’s kind of overrated and not THATTTTT good.
Plus, JK makes amazing characters. I want to say something else, but I won’t- major HP7 spoiler :).
April 1st, 2009 at 1:15 pm
Totally Ann, I don’t know why people don’t like Harry Potter. Some of my friends think it’s un-christian, but that’s it. They’re awesome books, it’s weird that other people don’t like them.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:16 pm
thats cool i hope it gets sold!! so whats it about??? sorry 4 askin all these ?s lol
April 1st, 2009 at 1:16 pm
Meg, Twilight is overrated. It is NOT that good. You’re so right
April 1st, 2009 at 1:16 pm
catherine- i luvvvvvved both!! but i kinda liked twilight better! sryy
April 1st, 2009 at 1:17 pm
Alicia-both are really good, but did you really like ‘Breaking Dawn’s ending?
April 1st, 2009 at 1:18 pm
jk rowling is in my top 3 authors with stephenie meyer and lisi harrison
ya she does make amzing characters!! i LOVED the ending of HP7
April 1st, 2009 at 1:18 pm
I’m, like, bouncing up and down. I’m really excited- and I had a coke in my lunch, which might have something to do with it.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:18 pm
WHY MY SPRING BREAK GETS BETTER AND BETTER!
1. New flip flops.
2. Shoutout from Lisi.
3. Getting to meet the 1 and only Joe-Joe
WHY MY SPRING BREAK GETS WORSE AND WORSE
1. Its a long story but my phone fell on my toe and it is killing me.
2. I smashed 2 of my fingers into a door.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:18 pm
Lisi, that was amazing!!! I am SUPER psyched for Boys R Us!!!
OMG I am sooo happy it’s spring break in only two days!!! I’m going to Mexico!! yayyy
But the bad thing is I have 5 tests in a time frame of two days to finish up the quarter. So that means studying non-stop!!! : (
This is going to be harder than trying to make Paula and Kara get along!!
April 1st, 2009 at 1:19 pm
yesss! but i want her to write more about.. (i wont say it because it would totally spoil the ending!)
April 1st, 2009 at 1:19 pm
omg soo good lisi
April 1st, 2009 at 1:19 pm
I actually have to go but, Lauren, I’ll answer your questions before I do..
1. Eliot Barnes hasn’t stopped hiding since she was eight – when her mother locked her inside their house and took a long weekend getaway with another potential piece of marriage bait. Even nine years later, living with her dad and his now-pregnant wife, Barbara, she’s still hiding: Behind her camera, in her high school dark room, at her camera store job in the ‘old mall’ nobody hangs out at anymore. She hides her photographs and the crescent shaped scars on her palm. Not even Don, the school photo teacher and her photography mentor, has penetrated the surface.
But there’s no hiding when Eliot is caught with a “borrowed” camera lens from work, handcuffed and perp walked off-campus. And when her high school refuses to take her back, Eliot’s forced to move back in with her mother and face the trauma she’s struggled to forget. Her only lifeline - her only hope - comes in a friendship with Jane Ward, the elderly widow across the street, whose secrets are just as destructive as Eliot’s. Together, they begin to reveal the darkened truths of their lives, illuminating the damage they’ve inflicted on themselves and searching each other for the strength to alter the course of their lives.
2. Unfortunately, I did not. I was on vacation skiiing in Vail, CO. Yes, there were lots of designer fashion labels there…
3. Two reasons.
One - I was on vacay last week and I don’t do much more than email or twitter when I’m not at home.
Two - I’m not a one website kind of guy and I have to pay attention to my other favorite sites too.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:19 pm
wwwwwwwwwwoooooooooooo
awesssssssssooooooommmmee
April 1st, 2009 at 1:20 pm
I know :). I wish she would’ve continued, but I dunno. I like how she ended the thing. Plus, I don’t know what she could write about.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:21 pm
lol Meg.
Like I said, I’ve only read HP1 but I love Neville! I feel so bad for him when he’s made fun of and stuff and I just want to give him a hug and eat him right up. lol That was random……. But JK makes great characters. I love Dumbledore too! He’s funny and really wise.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:22 pm
Thanks Joe-Joe. I thought you were going to say for #3 because there is only girls here and no boys. lol You are a brother to all of us.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:22 pm

JoeJoe, I would sooo read that book.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:25 pm
Neville is so cute and innocent at the beginning…
Actually, I think my favorite characters are Snape and Luna (you wouldn’t know her yet, C
)
Did you know Dumbledore means bumblebee in latin (or something?) lol.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:26 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 1:28 pm
My friends played this really mean April fools day trick on me and they pretended they were mad at me but I diddn’t fall for it and then at lunch I saw one of my friends tell one of our friends that they were only doing that as a joke but I never fell for it anyways so

April 1st, 2009 at 1:33 pm
Yeah… he liked Grindewald or whatever, didn’t he?
Idk, I don’t really have a problem with gays, even though I’m a Christian. I just think that it’s their choice, and I’m not going to be a butthead and hate them for it. I mean, I don’t really like to read slash fics or whatever, but I’m for gay rights.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:35 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 1:45 pm
It would be really weird and awkward if Dumbledore was gay I mean he is around a lot of young boys that don’t know how to use magic as well as him
April 1st, 2009 at 1:46 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 1:56 pm
Just be yourself. You don’t want to be fake, or seem desperate. If you make it clear that you like people, in general, they like you back.
April 1st, 2009 at 1:58 pm
sydni- dont try too hard. people are gonna like you for you. even if your not “popular” your gonna find some amazing friends who think your pretty awesome. thatll be popularity in itself!
hahaha
hope i helped! ♥

April 1st, 2009 at 2:03 pm
Lisi add an older more mature character that brings them back together because they all hate her.
April 1st, 2009 at 2:04 pm
Don’t get me wrong, I think Lisi is a great author (hear that, Lisi?) but I think its funny how everyone, in a sense, sucks up to her. Everyone says shes the best author ever and they loooooove her.
But a lot of people seem to suck up. (Not saying everyone and not pointing fingers at all.) Lol. Just an observation.
She is an awesome author and yes we love her, sep. since she posts blah-g every week
April 1st, 2009 at 2:05 pm
Thx Soooooo Much for sending the e-mail to my mom, Lisi!!!!! I was so stupid to forget my password.

Hey everyone! JoeJoe, I loved it.
It sounds so good!
Wow, i didn’t know there was another mary on here. but oh well. i guess there is! i have taken a break from editing my first chapter. it is not at all how i wanted it to be, and I’m redoing it. But later, not now.
OUT OF ALL THESES, WHAT PNE WOULD U WANT TO READ??
1. HER FIRST DAY
2. MEETING SAM
3. FIRST TIME SHE GETS IN THE WATER (This one was so emotional I was seriously almost crying when I wrote it. I love it.)
OR… 4. HER FIRST KISS WITH SAM AND HOW IT GOES SO WRONG.
SO as you may have been able to tell, I am having HORRIBLE writers block. if u wanna help me out, choose one of these and ill post it later on.
THANKS SO MUCH. IF ANY OF U ARE EVER HAVING WRITERS BLOCK LET ME KNOW.
–MARYYY
April 1st, 2009 at 2:06 pm
Lisi! Love the fact that the new chapter includes Claire. Although the “it smelled like love” thing is kind of cheesy.
I doubt you’ll read down this far, but I have a question that’s been eating at me for ages: whatever happened to Danny Robbins from Revenge of the Wannabes?
And do you have any advice for people that have friends that are Lyrca-ish?
April 1st, 2009 at 2:08 pm
Mary!!!!!!! u are such a good writer so i am gonna havve to go with the emotional one. how is it emotional? does she like the water or hate it or somethin??????

April 1st, 2009 at 2:16 pm
I’m sorry but i don’t like cam! He’s like a girl. I like when guys r tough and “well it’s YOUR problem pal, not mine” and he’s just so girl-ish. It makes him seem gay. I’m sorry that’s just my opoion, i appricipate everyones eles’s 2.

April 1st, 2009 at 2:19 pm
Heyyy
April 1st, 2009 at 2:19 pm
Elizabeth, I agree, I don’t like popular people. Of course, it depends on the person. But if you think you are popular and cool, it gets annoying. If you are a nice person and have lots of friends, that’s a different popular and its totally fine. I just don’t like the people at my school who think they are all cool.
BEING COOL IS OVERRATED. JUST BE YOURSELF. ITS MUCH MORE FUN! That is my message to the world
April 1st, 2009 at 2:20 pm
and yea, whos danny robbins? lol
April 1st, 2009 at 2:20 pm
I totally agree w/ u catherine. B/ing ur self totally outrules b/ing popular
April 1st, 2009 at 2:23 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 2:35 pm

(translation: heyy my girlies!!)
April 1st, 2009 at 2:37 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 2:40 pm
hola alicia! que tal? i only speak pequena espanol lol
(TRASLATION: hi alicia! i only speak a little spanish lol)
April 1st, 2009 at 2:41 pm
Well…sorry to break it to you, Lisi, but that first page and a half…well…kinda sucked.
But I wouldn’t worry about it if I were you. I’m sure things couldn’t get any worse.
Oh, and by the way…APRIL FOOLS!
The first page and a half are perfect, great, stupendous, sensational, and amazing…just like the all ah-dorable, ah-mazing, perfect, studpendous, sensational aw-thor you are!
And, no, I’m not overreacting.
Luv Always,
pollysmiles101
P.S. Shout out to me?

April 1st, 2009 at 2:48 pm
Hi.. I liked it. Should I just give up because no one acknowledges me anymore? Lisi never gives me a shoutout and I’ve been coming back every single Wednesday to read these blah-gs and leave extra nice comments. She hasn’t shouted out to me! Should I just leave for good?
April 1st, 2009 at 2:48 pm
It’s so irritating!
April 1st, 2009 at 2:49 pm
See? No ones even helping me. Ugh.
April 1st, 2009 at 2:50 pm
emilyyy!- umm no offense chica but i think the point of this site is not to get shoutouts but to talk to people who have the same interests as you. & share your amazing stories!! hahaha
xox,
Leesh
April 1st, 2009 at 2:50 pm
omg 2day my science teacher did a apirl fools joke on us she said that all of r projets were gone and we had 2 start all over it was a joke
April 1st, 2009 at 2:51 pm
Well yea I know, but I guess I just kind of expect it. I’ve been coming back for a super long time and still nothing. I AM here to talk to other people about same interests and whatnot, but still. I don’t know. Nevermind.
April 1st, 2009 at 2:52 pm
Well. I’m going now. Talk to you all later I guess.
April 1st, 2009 at 2:53 pm

okey dokey im done rambling lol
April 1st, 2009 at 2:54 pm

EHMAGAWD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 1st, 2009 at 3:06 pm
So Lisi, I know people are always betting stuff that you won’t read their post. You seem to catch them every time. Does this mean that you truly read every comment? That must take forever and a day. Kudos to you times 37! Let me try it just in case…
I bet Bean that you won’t read this post!
Thanks for being awesome, you should get your picture taken at the TPC Mansions. Every time I see them I think of your books.
April 1st, 2009 at 3:06 pm
lisi that chapter was really bad now that i have read it i am so not going to read any more of your books and i am going to tell everyone i know to boycott you and all of you r work because its really terrible and i hate it.Boys R us is the stupidest name i ever heard of too!JK!!!!!HAHAHA i got you lisi I LOVE YOUR BOOKS!happy april fools day guys!i pulled the most hilarious prank in the history of pranks 2 day,it was so much fun.and to think i almost forgot about this ahmazing day!Lisi i really was just kidding because i love your books so much and i reccommended it to everyone i know and to ppl i dont know but anyways, i read the first chaper and i thought it was a really big cliff hanger!know i will just have to wait till JULY!cry cry cry……oo well.the beggining was really grabbing though i thought and claie and cam sound so cute 2 gether.and i think that out of all the shallow charaters u write u still have some really deep characters 2 and i think that is great and keeps the series balenced and thats key ,…i think i dont know though i am not a writer.but you are and you r an awesome one 2.just asking do u think you will ever branch away from the clique and like write a complete other story.NOT THAT I WANT U 2!!!!really i love the clique it was just a question if u could i would say write clique books 4 the rest of your life.but as they say all good things come to an end sooo.but i pray to god the clique doesnt =)favorite series and *gasp gasp* may even top twilight saga!!!*maybe* i just think these books are really great for girls 2 and insiring.KEEP WRITING!!!!!

Lisi thank you so much for posting the first chapter of Boys R Us!!! I loved it! I can’t believe the Pretty Committe is breaking up!! I am so anxious to see what happens now because it’s gettin’ good! haha
I love the Clique books so much and I would be so sad if this turned out to be the last book, so just give me a warning if it is so I can at least re-read the series again so I can get ready. 
Thanks Lisi!
♥HannahK
April 1st, 2009 at 4:20 pm
P. S. Lisi,
I miss thecliquemovie.com!!! It was so much fun and I loved the little character bios on the Pretty Committe. Do you know if you’ll be making another clique-related website any time soon? thecliquemovie.com was a lot of fun so I think you should.
April 1st, 2009 at 4:21 pm

April 1st, 2009 at 4:23 pm
I love the first page
I just found out when I got home from school that my dad fell on the stairs in the
metro station downtown and that he probably broke his arm.
It’s really scaring me cause it’s the first time he’s had to be in the hospital for something serious,
so wish me luck girls.
BTW Lisi
My idea for the next Clique book is, as i’ve posted on the last billion blah-gs;
You’ve Got Male!
thanks.

Sorry to hear that, Hannah….
All you really have to do to get a shout out is just say something but not beg. I never saw Lisi pick someone who’s going PLZ LISI PLZ PLZ PLZ! If it’s your b-day just say, “Lisi is probably never going to read this but…” I know I’m not the shoutout queen or anything but I noticed it last weeks blah-g Money131 got picked because he called Lisi a saint. You probably are too hurt to think (i hate when im about to pass out 
) Okie dokie. I hope you feel better and good luck tomorrow.

All:Who has their spring break coming up?
April 1st, 2009 at 5:18 pm
i need 2 lift some weigths i am flemsy arms 2 my friends cus i have long skinny arms
April 1st, 2009 at 5:19 pm
Just jog on the beach in Hawaii every morning. I bet that will help
I have a treadmill right here, so I could just use that I suppppppppoooooooooooooooose.
But Dan got 6:34! I asked him and he replied, “six thirty-four” smuggly. then he asked what i got and i said, “worse than yours by 2 minutes.” he turned away
BUT treadmill tomorrow for the next three weeks will certainly help.
oh and then the best part occured. in LA he said, “i ran plenty marathons and races and the only finish line was chalk on the ground” because we were talking about Parker’s symbol, which was a finish line.
My friend Ros got 7 minutes something, but she only did half of it.
At least I did better than Curlii, who got like 15 minutes because she was protesting it.
April 1st, 2009 at 5:20 pm
ME!! i’m going no place warm but lansing
April 1st, 2009 at 5:21 pm
Me too Courtney.
I’ll go to the gym with my mom Mondays, because she doesn’t have work Mondays, and work on weights. Then every other day, I’ll go on the treadmill for 30 minutes.
WORK OUT PLANNN
Hey, if I’m trapped in my house, I might as well put it to good use.
April 1st, 2009 at 5:21 pm
Courtney:Ditto
Does your school have a weight room? It makes a difference. Mine aren’t as ‘flimsy’

WAIT A SECOND! I JUST REMEMBERED IM GOING TO BUSCH GARDENS IN VA WITH MY FRIEND CARLLA AND THEN WASHINGTON D.C. WITH THE FAM!
YES IM NOT TRAPPED IN THE HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!
In gym we do sit ups, the plank, push ups, stretching, and jogging for 7 minutes for warm up. Me and this kid Zach like to jog around and make fun of people and how they jog…I know it’s not nice, but its more fun than it sounds. but Zach is a pretty big guy, so usually I do a few laps and come back to him and start talking again.
He’s gay, so it’s OK if me and Paige talk to him more than usual.
April 1st, 2009 at 5:33 pm
i have work oout day mon and wed and i practice w/my brothers wreslting team 20 laps on are gymup 2the weight room and back again
April 1st, 2009 at 5:34 pm
My brother rules. We watch movies on the plane on his laptop. And he would only let me and him watch, or just me.
But now he sits with my mom and I’m stuck with my sister (let’s call her H) and my dad.
Not cool.
April 1st, 2009 at 5:34 pm
jessica-wat is the plank?
April 1st, 2009 at 5:36 pm
It’s like a push up pose except you hold it on your elbows. It helps with the abs:

April 1st, 2009 at 5:39 pm
my bros pretty sweet too. just kinda annoying some time. but hes 17 & im gonna miss him soooo much next year. hahaha hes my partner in crime. lol
April 1st, 2009 at 5:40 pm
listening to Bo Burnham!
I love you like kings love queens
Like a gay geneticist loves designer jeans
I need you like New Orleans needs a drought
Like Hitler’s Father needed to learn to pull out
And I want you, yeah, like a Lawyer/Mathematician wants some kind of proof
And I want you, yeah, like JFK wanted a car with a roof
Because love is taking that dive, then getting really comfortable and peeing in the pool
And love is a real life porn, minus all the stuff that makes porn cool
And love is a homeless guy searching for treasure in the middle of the rain and finding a bag of gold coins and slowly finding out they’re all filled with chocolate and even though he’s heart broken, he can’t complain because he was hungry in the first place
Because I love you like Dora loves maps
Like the pope’s toilet loves holy craps… (that’s a little one)
I need you like a voyeur needs a branch
Like boys tossing salad needs a little bit of Neverland Ranch
And I want you, yeah, like all the gothic kids that look exactly the same, never want to conform
And I want you like Anne Frank… wanted nobody to read her FUCKING diary (because a diary is a collection of secret things that nobody’s supposed to know, that’s the whole point of a diary. Millions of people that have breached this little girls privacy after she was chased by Nazis… kick her while she’s down)
And if we met in 10, 000 BC, I was your caveman, yous my cavelady…
If we got hot, we’d start rubbin’
If we got hungry, we’d go clubbin’
There’s willy mammoths, I’ll protect us, you’re makin’ me devolve to a homo erectus, mothafucka
And if we met in 1780, I would be a white southern aristocratic plantation owner and you were my dark-skinned servant lady… slave
Whenever I could get away from the Missus, I go to your she’d then I’d steal you kisses
But let’s be serious, I’d still work you full-time as a slave, there’s a difference between romantic language and complete disregard for social economic trends
If it was 1941, I was a Nazi, yous a Gypsy on the run, that’s a little redundant
That… probably wouldn’t have worked out…
Because…
Love is your favorite food for every breakfast, lunch and dinner
And love is the Holocaust, if you don’t die quick and you don’t get thinner
And love is being the owner of the company that makes rape whistles
And even though you started with good intentions trying to reduce the rate of rape, now you don’t want to reduce it at all cause if the rape rate declines then you’ll see an equal decline in whistle sales…
Without rapists, who’s gonna buy your whistles?
Yeahhhh, love is all about… Whistles. Thank you.
April 1st, 2009 at 5:41 pm

That sounds really good!!! my favorite Pretty Committee members are Massie, Kristen, and Claire. I don’t really like Dylan and Alicia. And i like Massie with Derrington better than Dylan with Derrington. But Claire and Cam are ah-dorable!

April 1st, 2009 at 6:12 pm
Hey :). I’m baaaaaaack!
I agree. The Massie that she shows in public just isn’t right for Derrick.
But, once again, I love Massington for the most part in fanfiction. Especially Maybe It’s Time to Come Home (and some others that I can’t think of), but I doubt any of you have even read that, lol :).

i totally heart the blah-g today, but the random fact ones were just as interesting.
so anyways the yeah-that’s-right-i-pulled-the-meanest-april-fools-award should go to me. theres this guy at my school named matt and he has the hugest crush on me and isnt even quiet about it. so today i was all, “Hey, matt. Wanna make out?” and he said yeah and then i was like “April Fools!” dont worry i dont even feel bad about it because hes a really huge pervert and will probably live alone. he tells girls they are fat. yep he will definately be alone

Love Nikki
April 1st, 2009 at 7:50 pm
This chapter looks so good. Lisi I have no idea how you can read all the comments, or at least most of them. I’ve been a huge fan of your books since forever and I so J’adore it. But I bet that this will be one of those comments you won’t even notice seeing as there are seriously sooo many comments that it would be as impossible as Blair and Dan from gossip girl ever falling in love. I bet that you couldn’t read this since it’s so far down.
April 1st, 2009 at 7:59 pm
Girls, there is this girl on polyvore and I said something about her set that offended her, so I tried to send her a long apology saying how horrifying and rude I was, but she blocked me. So I tried posting this as a comment:
“I’m sorry about anything rude that I have said or done to offend you. I know these sets take such a long time for you to make and what I did was heartless and cold and unexceptable. You don’t have to forgive me, I just felt the need to say this. xo, J”
But it wouldn’t work.
IDK I just felt the need to say this.
April 1st, 2009 at 8:05 pm
what did you do to her?
April 1st, 2009 at 8:09 pm
Well, she’s an artsy girl, and she does this thing where she takes a dreadful picture and makes it elegant. But I said that I didn’t see the difference, so I guess I offended her.
April 1st, 2009 at 8:13 pm
hey so is anyone here on track?? well just wondering cause i have a track meet tomorrow and friday anway i run the 2 mile and the mile and my best times are 14.32 for the 2 mile and 6.30 for the mile lol sorry i swear i’m not trying to brag im just wondering if anyone else does track and if u do u should post wat u run and ur times so it’ll be like a blag-h hall of fame haha

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chapter 1- Tuesday, 5:12 pm
“Hahahaha!” The sound of Jinx, Rebecca, Kelly, and Deanna laughing their heads off, filled the silent room at the Rose Petal Lifetime Spa. This was Jinx’s favourite ring tone for her iphone.
She had recorded it at one of her sleepover parties. Jinx Canova and her BFFs had been eating pretzels, wearing their pjs, and watching She’s the Man on Jinx’s 75 inch flat screen TV. One of Jinx’s BFFs, Deanna, glanced over toward their other good friend, Kelly. Kelly had stuffed two pretzels up each nostril. (This wasn’t all that surprising, since Kelly was always acting silly and hyper). So then, Deanna started laughing said, “Hey guys, look at Kelly!” All of the girls quickly turned around to see what was so amusing, and as soon as they saw their friend they burst out laughing. To make it even funnier, Kelly took the pretzels from her nose, and ate them. Even Kelly herself started giggling. Then they all burst into hysterics, and all night they kept reminding each other of that moment, and laughed every time the story had been retold.
“Ugh,” grunted Jinx as she reached down from the massage table, and grabbed her laughing iphone from her purse. “Hello?” Jinx answered. She held her index finger up to Etta, her massage therapist, indicating that she would only take a minute.
“Hey Jinx!” Rebecca said cheerfully, with her slight Scottish accent.
“Hey, Bec! What’s up?” Jinx said.
“Oh, I was wondering if I could borrow a dress.”
“A dress?”
“Yeah. You see, my aunt, you know the one from Scotland? Well, she kinda showed up unexpectedly, and she’s taking us to this restaurant for dinner that sounds really fancy. I think it’s called something Divine.”
“And you need a dress?”
“Yeah”
“Well, I’m kind of in the middle of a massage right now, but why don’t you come by my place at around 5:30, okay? And we can pick out the perfect dress.”
“Okay, sounds good. Thank you so much Jinx!”
“ Okay, bye!”
“Yeah, bye.” Rebecca said just before hanging up.
“Sorry about that.” Jinx apologized to Etta for ‘wasting her time with silly kid phone calls’. That was what Etta had said to her once, while Deanna had called Jinx in the middle of a massage to ask her where she had gotten that cute halter top she had been wearing that day.
“Its fine”, Etta said, although she sounded irritated by the second ‘silly kid phone call’. Jinx just pretended not to notice and enjoyed the rest of her massage.
********************************************************************************************
Jinx wanted to go straight upstairs, and pick out some dresses that Rebecca might like, as soon as she got home from her massage. Once she got back to the Canova estate, she thanked her chauffeur, Ian, for picking her up and dropping her off. Then she checked the time. “5:14” she mumbled to herself. “Just enough time to pick out a couple of dresses for her”. Jinx waltzed up the marble staircase to her bedroom singing Leavin’ by Jesse McCartney.
Once she got up to her room, she immediately thought of the PERFCT dress for her BFF to wear. She envisioned her blue-eyed friend in a strapless black dress, with dainty sequins sewn around the top. She knew that dress would get her buddy and armload of compliments. Jinx had worn it before, to one of her parents’ rich friends’ house parties. People all around her said things like, “Love the sequins!”, or “that totally flatters your legs!” One snobby woman even said, “If I didn’t already own that dress in every colour, I would have stole it from you!”
So Jinx took out the dress, and a few other cute ones, and laid them out on her king-sized bed. Then she walked back to her walk-in closet and stood in front of her dress rack looking for a turquoise one, because of course, Rebecca’s favourite colour was turquoise. But, she shook the thought out of her head, since turquoise wasn’t really an evening colour.
“Boo!” yelled a familiar voice.
“Ahhhhh!” screeched Jinx a high-pitched voice. She turned around and came face to face with Rebecca. “Geez Bec! You almost scared me to death!” Jinx over-exaggerated.
“Geez Bec! Geez Bec!” squawked Sadie, Jinx’s Amazon parrot, from her amazingly large cage. Rebecca and Jinx giggled at the talking parrot.
“So do you have any ideas about what I should wear?” Rebecca asked Jinx, after their mini giggle-fest had ended.
“Umm, yeah. I picked out a couple of dresses. They’re over there.” Jinx replied as she tilted her head towards her faux-fur covered bed.
“Oh, cool. Well, I brought over some accessories and a pair of shoes too.” Rebecca explained, lifting up a plastic Aldo bag with her index and middle finger. “But let’s pick the dress first.” Rebecca said. Jinx nodded in agreement.
Rebecca had a hard time deciding between three of the dresses, which included the short black one with the sequins. But, her and Jinx eventually decided on a navy blue shift dress. To make it not so formal, they added a pair of black leggings, since she was only going out to dinner, not a ball or a prom. She chose to wear black flats with it instead of heels, since she was already tall, at 5’8. A few silver bangles completed her look.
Rebecca thanked Jinx about a billion times before calling her chauffeur, Jeremy to pick her up.
(As Jinx is standing outside, saying goodbye to Rebecca)
“Jinx!” called Samantha, Jinx’s mother, from inside the house.
“Bye Rebecca!” Jinx said, before responding to her mother. “Yeah mom?” Jinx asked as she walked back inside her house.
“Marcella has dinner waiting on the table. Luke is here, and he’s eating with us tonight”. Samantha replied. Marcella was their housekeeper, and cook. She was a nice little old German woman. She was always friendly and usually quiet. Marcella just went around, minding her own business, but when someone asked her opinion on something, you would be sitting there for an hour, listening to what she thought. Jinx’s parents thought she was annoying, and was tired of hearing what she thought, but Jinx wasn’t. Jinx loved talking to Marcella, and Marcella was also a great listener. Jinx always told her, her problems and trusted her with all of her secrets. So anyway, enough about Marcella. Let’s talk about Luke. Luke was the boyfriend of Jinx’s older sister. Jinx’s sister, Evangeline (Eva) had met Luke while she was in Italy for the summer with her friends after she had just graduated. She and Luke fell in love, and it was a happily ever after. Until, the summer had ended and Eva had to come back to Oregon. So, since Luke had the money, and the love for Eva, he moved out to Oregon with her. He now has his own apartment, a couple of blocks away from the Canova Estate.
Jinx ran upstairs to spray a few spritzes of vanilla scented body spray on and touch up her blush. Then she ran back downstairs as quickly as she could, and washed her hands.
“Hi Jinx”, Luke greeted her with a warm friendly smile.
“Hey”, Jinx said and smiled back.
“Okay, everybody! Let’s sit down, and have this wonderful meal prepared by Marcella” Samantha announced to Jinx, Luke, Eva, and Albert, Jinx’s father.
“Okay, who’s going to say grace?” Samantha asked. Saying grace wasn’t something they usually did, but Luke was a Christian, so when he came over they respected that, and prayed.
“I think Jinx should pray tonight”, Albert said.
“Me?” Jinx asked, somewhat surprised. She had never prayed before. What would she say? Would Luke think she was weird if she said the wrong things? And who was she praying to anyway? Questions raced through Jinx’s mind, that she had never thought about before.
“I think it’s a great idea” Luke agreed, in his thick Italian accent.
“Ummm, okay”, Jinx said uneasily. “But, what do I say?”
“Anything”, Luke said. “Things you’re thankful for, things you want, anything”
“Okay”, said Jinx.
They all bowed their heads, and joined hands. “Ummm. . . hi God. Well I’m thankful for my family, my TV, my ugg boots, and my new Burberry bag, and . . .
“Jinx!” her mother practically spat. Her dad chuckled. Eva looked at Luke, and Luke grinned and lightly shook his head.
“What?” Jinx asked, not knowing what she did wrong.
“Its okay Jinx. I’ll just finish for you”, Luke said. “So, thank you god for this wonderful food, and for the wonderful people who I am surrounded by. Please bless my ma and my papa, and keep them safe. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
“Amen”, the rest of the family said in unison.
Throughout the rest of the roast beef, mashed potatoes, and caeser salad, they talked about how Luke’s courses at George Fox University were going, about Jinx’s new school project on Japan, and about all of the funny things Sadie, (Jinx’s parrot) had said.
After dinner, Samantha reminded Jinx to work on her Japan project. “But mom,” Jinx protested, “It’s not due until Friday. And besides, I need to spend some time with Sadie, I’ve been neglecting her ever since this project started.”
“Jinx, it’s Tuesday, and your project is due in three days. You need to do some work on it! You can spend time with Sadie when you do at least some work. Now go up to your room, and do some research.” Samantha ordered, as she helped Marcella carry the plates into the kitchen.
“Yes, mom,” Jinx said as she headed for the stairs. Her mother was right; she did need to work on her project, but also needed to spend time with Sadie. Amazon parrots weren’t like any other parrots. Not all people could handle Amazon parrots, because they required a lot more attention than regular parrots. They are playful, energetic, and outgoing. Amazon parrots could be moody, and loving. They yearn for human interaction and attention, so Jinx paid as much attention to her as possible. But right now she needed to focus on her homework.
When she got up the stairs, she went straight to work. She was supposed to find all of the information on culture on Japan as she could, and present it any way she wanted. Jinx decided to make scrapbook with pictures, and little facts here and there, and on the very last page, she would write a whole page on just about everything to do with culture. She was sure this would score her an automatic A; if she ever finished it that is. So Jinx went straight to her Apple MacBook to find some pictures.
Once Jinx had printed a few pictures of clothing and food from Japan, and written a few facts about their traditional dances, she decided to text Rebecca to see how the dinner went:
Jinx.Canova: hey. howd dinner w/ auntie go?
Becbaby950: ok. Jack threw up on waiter. lol.
Jinx.Canova: lol. I wish i saw it. hows aunt?
Becbaby950: annoying. Shes staying @ my house for 3 weeks!
Jinx.Canova: bummer.
Becbaby950: I know. Shes so snobby. She wouldnt stop bragging.
Jinx.Canova: about?
Becbaby950: everything. oh i g2g. auntie is coming.
Jinx.Canova: ok. Bye
Jinx turned off her cell.

My friend blocked me on AIM because I asked her….well, here is the conversation:
(with our SN’s blocked out):
Jessica: do you want to know what that south park was about?
FRIEND: no
Jessica: good cause i dont want to tell y
Jessica: **u
Jessica: oh, zach got twilight on his iPod for us.
FRIEND: yah u did. thats why you asked.
Jessica: no, i was just wondering if u wanted to know.
FRIEND: Well I dont, and yes you did want to tell me. Otherwise you would not have asked and know you better than to think otherwise.
FRIEND signed off at 10:43:42 PM.
FRIEND is offline and will receive your IMs when signing back in.
Jessica: Uhm OK
FRIEND is unable to receive offline IMs.
**
That always means they blocked you.
And my other friend is mad at me because I blocked her because I was doing something and telling her to stop IMing me so much would take too long (yes, yes, I am lazy) and now she is mad at me and her status message is:
JESSICA WHY THE FUCK DID YOU BLOCK ME?!?!
Yep.
Everybody but my fam, Ally, Carlla, and Zach (AND THE GIRLS ON LISIHARRISON’S BLAH-G. ily girlies) hate me today.
xo, (but not really)

OKAY! I just wanted to say to you, Lisi, that we should have a new contest on a new character for the clique that can appear in These Boots Are Made For Stalking. Maybe there is a new girl way beyond Kuh-Laire and we would have to post the hair color, eye color, fave color, if that person is rich or not and where the person came from, or if it is a hawt guy that comes, their name or what evs else you need to know about that character. THAT’D BE AWESOME!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:06 am
OMG!!!! Something hilars happened 2day @ skwl!!!
- cos, like I said, I’M the one who thinks of things first. And also, a few yrs ago I used 2 B Abigail’s best friend. Even though I haven’t been @ this skwl 4 a v. long time, I’m sure I know Abigail ah lot more than Kennadi Carter.
OK, so there’s this complete LBR, Abigail, who I desperately want 2 give a makeover. But . . . well, 2day I guess the bombshell dropped. Kennadi, the alpha of our clique and the queen bee my skwl (she’s also my BF), finally found the sense and told me and Jemma and Diana in the morning that she wanted 2 give Abigail a makeover. So @ breaktime we all had 2 sneak back inside into the girls’ bathroom. Jemma treated Abigail 2 strawberry lipgloss and Kennadi did her hair so that her fringe (or bangs) were swept 2 one side, the rest of her hair gathered loosely into a cute pony and her amber hairband pushed right back. 2 tell U the truth, she looked ah-mazing. But also, quite frankly, I think I could’ve done a better job myself. I mean, sure I’m the beta. But I’M the one who ALWAYS thinks of things B4 Kennadi. And I wuz the one who had the idea 4 the LBR-makeover. Kennadi says Abigail’s ‘one of us now’ and she said 2 Abigail (whonowgoesbyAbbi) said, ‘U wanna come 2 my house after skwl 2nite 4 a makeover?’ and I felt really left out -
And I just can’t stop thinking about it.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:11 am
Heyyy, Lisi!!! I’m sure U won’t get this far down, but oh well, I guess other girls (and JoeJoe) can read this. I’ve got some ideas 4 Glossip Girl flavours. They’re all pretty rubbish, but I’ll give it a go.
- Kiwi Punch
- Vanilla Twist
- Pink Lemonade
- Fudgelicious
- CinnaMAN (4 girls like Alicia)
- Giggling Grapefruit
Oh. I’ve g2g. That’s all 4 now. I’ll B back soon.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:12 am
” At this point a reunion for the Pretty Committee seemed less likely than a five-year wedding anniversary for Spencer and Heidi. ”

Try doing something constructive with these:
- Lemon Meringue
- Cherry Tart
- Banana Split
- Apricot Pleasure
- Tropical Dream (a mix of summery fruits - e.g. bananas, mangos, papaya, etc.)
- Watermelon Delight
Lisi, if U do choose any of these (which I doubt U will, cos U probably won’t read them) then I advice U 2 use different names. Because, quite frankly, mine suck.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:53 am
Hey Lisi, JoeJoe, and everyone else, here is a story about Lisi. Hope you luv it!!!!
Lisi Harrison propped her pedicure-deprived feet up on her desk and sighed. For the past five days, she had been writing non-stop on her next novel. Now that she was almost done, she needed a break.
Lisi closed her laptop, slipped her feet into her uber-cute bronze Gladiator sandals, and strode out of her office and down the hallway. Once she stepped outside into the warm, sun-soaked air, Lisi blinked a few times into the glare of the sun, and slid on her Rayban Wayfarers. She started walking down the hot, caramel colored sand, and a group of surfer hawties caught her attention.
Lisi ran her hands through her golden-brown silky layers and got ready to make a move. But it turned out she didn’t have to. A damp finger tapped her bare shoulder.
” ‘Scuse me?” someone said. Lisi whip-turned around and came face to face with a tall, tan, hawtie. He had caramel colored skin, damp, dirty blond hair, electric green eyes, and he was wearing white swim trunks. A tall, orange surfboard was perfectly balanced against his pecs.
Lisi took off her sunglasses in slow-motion and shook out her hair. “Yes?” She flirt smiled.
The guy smiled back. “My name is Kevin, and I was just wonderin’ if you wanted to get some lunch with me?” Kevin looked down at Lisi with his ah-dorable face.
“Sure, I’d like that.” Lisi dropped her sunglasses in her purple beach bag.
“Great! Let me go drop of my board. I’ll be right back.” Kevin smiled and ran off to his stuff.
A few sweltering minutes later, Kevin came back, this time wearing an orange t-shirt. He linked his arm with Lisi’s, and she smiled, trying to ignore the salty dampness of it. They walked in silence down to Mickey’s Shack, a rustic burger place right on the beach.
Lisi and Kevin sat down at a worn, wooden table and ordered drinks, a sparkling water for Lisi and a chocolate milkshake for Kevin. They talked while their drinks were being made.
“So, what do you do?” Kevin asked.
“I’m a writer,” Lisi replied.
“Like, a book writer?” Kevin knit his brows together.
“Yes.” Lisi smiled. Then their food came, and it was silence again as they concentrated on eating. When they were done, Lisi and Kevin stood to say goodbye. Kevin hugged her gently, and Lisi melted into him. They switched numbers, and then he left, and Lisi was alone. On the way back to her office, she thought about Kevin the whole way. That wasn’t a bad break after all, she thought.
THE END!!!!!

I love your books and I think you do a great job on writing them but i do have a question. Why can’t Massie get a taste of what shes dishing out? Why cant she be a friendless loser? Why can’t Claire leave her? Massie is mean to Claire too but Claire just takes it. Massie deserves it. But I LOVE LOVE LOVE Dylan + Derrignton AND Claire+Cam.
(: Your blogs are amazing thank you for them too . They make my week every week (:

“Cam Fisher flirt-punched her shoulder. “You okay?”
“Huh?” Claire glanced up at her crush. The warmth in Cam’s one blue eye and one green eye shielded her against the late afternoon chill. She buried her hands inside the sleeves of the burgundy Briarwood Tomahawks jersey she wore over grey leggings and flirt-punched him back. “Easy!”
“Ow!” He laughed. A grape bubble gum-scented cloud puffed from his mouth. It smelled like love.
“Worried about Massie?” Cam slipped his arm around her shoulder and left it there for approximately three Mississippi’s before stuffing it back in the pocket of his red hoodie.
Claire nodded, nibbling her Blistex-coated bottom lip to keep from purring. Now was not the time to think about how she and Cam were so close or how he could practically read her mind. And now was definitely not the time to sneak an intoxicating noseful of Drakkar Noir. Now was the time to focus on being there for Massie, since the rest of the Pretty Committee was avoiding her way Lindsay avoided food.”
I wish that would happen to me :[ I’ve missed those feelings ever since I broke up with my Ex..

Losing Gravity
Annie Giordini just sits in her car. Sometimes she jams her feet up against the dashboard, pushing her knees into her chin, like a giant designer jeaned fetus curled up in a BMW womb. Sometimes she goes Indian-style against the steering wheel while she talks on the phone or skims magazines.
She’s always in the last parking spot under the oak tree at the far end of the student parking lot. Nobody else parks there. I don’t know if people respect her dedication to that spot or fear that anyone who spends that much time alone in a parked car could easily go on a killing spree if they found another car dripping oil in their parking stall.
I’ve taken photos of Annie in her car every school day for the past five weeks. And to be honest, the individual pictures are kind of worthless because you see people sitting in their cars every day, like the old men who fall asleep with their mouths open waiting for their wives to finish grocery shopping
But today’s picture was really good. I knew it when I exposed the photo paper. This shot had the potential to make my permanent collection.
This was the only photo I’ve taken that Annie acknowledged my presence, which she did by squinting her eyes and flipping me off. She yelled something too, but with her window rolled up I had to imagine which cuss words were ricocheting around the leather interior.
The shot captured Annie’s finger in full extension, light glinting off her nail’s manicured tip; mouth snarling open, tongue drawn back like a snake, ready to strike.
I pulled the picture out of the developing tray with a pair of rubber-tipped tongs, rinsed it in the water tray and hung it up.
I had taken photography class spring semester of my freshman year. Back then, I took it because the only other arts class was pottery. I’m still here now because of Don Coleman.
Don’s been Washington High’s photo teacher for the past twenty six years. Everybody likes Don, even the kids who fail his class. He makes it mandatory to call him Don, not Mr. Coleman. He is, by far, the best dressed teacher on staff and, in a major cliché, gay.
Don supported my photography from the first class assignment I turned in: A picture of a homeless guy reading the business section of the Los Angeles Times on a bus bench with one leg crossed over the other.
Since you can’t take photography class twice Don lets me use the dark room whenever I needed it. Which I do all the time.
The best and worst thing about Don is that he never lies. Whatever is going on in his brain comes out of his mouth. And ever since I was in his class, he’s tried to convince me to show my photos in public. So far, the score is Eliot 927, Don 0.
Don was grading a stack of photos when I came out of the dark room. Like he usually does, he began talking without looking up.
“How’d it go?”
“I left one hanging up in there,” I said.
He looked up. “Is it any good?”
“It’s not bad.”
At the corner table, a yellow flyer for the school art and photo exhibit was lying on my bag. It wasn’t there when I walked into the dark room.
“Nothing you’d enter into the art exhibit?” Don asked, as I nudged the flyer off my bag.
“Don, as a judge for the exhibit, don’t you think you’re crossing an ethical line here? I mean, you’re practically giving me the trophy before the exhibit even opens. What would Principal Warner think about that?”
Don put the stack of photos down and lifted his left eyebrow. The serious eyebrow.
“I don’t give a diddly damn what Jack thinks. And, we don’t give out trophies. We award ribbons. We’re a public school, remember? You want trophies, go to St. Ignatius.”
“Don, you guys give ribbons to pictures of kittens and rainbows. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but that’s not what I do.”
“Exactly the reason you need to enter.”
I threw my bag over my shoulder and headed for the door. “I need to get to work. See you tomorrow!”

April 2nd, 2009 at 2:32 pm
I’m wondering/dying to know what will happen between Clare and Cam in Boys R Us because i remember you saying that something big was going to happen w/them, I was one of those annoying people who asked you why you didn’t talk that much about Claire in PSILY. I was just curious though, i didn’t mean to be rude. I would actually love it if you just left Cam and Claire’s relationship alone in the book because i think there should be at LEAST one stable couple in the book. Don’t you? and Claire and Cam are perfect for each other. Have a nice day Mrs. Harrison and I hope you’ll respond to this.
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:32 pm

First Chapter of my story: (copywrited 2009):
Chapter One
As the car drifted silently in the sea of trees, Adeline peaked through her window. Opening one eye, she gazed at the creativity and art of the sequence of shining stars above her. There seemed to be thousands laying there drifting with loneliness in the depths of the sky. Sighing, Adeline closed her eyes letting her imagination wander carelessly like the stars above did.
Nearly becoming one with utter less boredom Adeline reminded herself of the endless opportunities about. She pulled out her slim sketch pad and placed her thin writing utensil on the blank page. “They are different yet become one on several angles of philosophy.” She wrote, “And they watch over the world like a mother and child, lighting it with kindness, tearing out the evilness that spreads over the world like peanut butter on Wonder Bread.”
As she closed her gentle eye-lids, Adeline fell into a deep sleep letting her thoughts ponder the mountains beyond her reach like a curious animal, unaware of the dangers she may find ahead.
***
Asleep, Adeline awoke to the smell of the wilderness and a garden fresh of herbs outside her windows. Coming into vision she saw her surroundings and became aware of the beauty of her future habitat.
The cottage she would live in was beautiful. Small, with only two floors, it was plucked in a crowd of no-where. But Adeline took this chance to wander the unbelievable and see the invisible. Her philosophy teacher would state “for life is a road, and learning how to drive has its ups and down. If you are willing you may see chances of hope and faith beyond your physical destination in life’s tail. But if these opportunities are not taken they become of stop sign for love.”
Shuffling through her bag, Adeline found the new copy of Romeo and Juliet her teacher gave her for the summer to read and write an essay demonstrating the birth of romance and force of fate. Opening the book, Adeline began to study and examine each word although she had never read before. Seeking this summary of daringness and passion, Adeline hoped to find it in the pages she held. But she would not, until the next moon would rise and she would meet a bewildered stranger who would change her life forever.
As the heat rose in the four level house, Jamie tore his saxophone out of its case feeling it was trapped in loneliness as well. He held it close, and felt it was his only beloved friend he would meet in the world. He smelled the familiar scent of freshly baked cookies, but he it reminded him of the kind his mother used to make. Ever since, the chocolate chips in them tasted like hatred and the cookie was heavy like a brick in his stomach. He vowed to never digest them again for his love for his mother was too desperate and eating them reminded him of his loss all over again.
As the sky fell, Jamie crept out of his high cave, he liked to call it because he felt fenced in, and he took his saxophone and played it. It slowly soothed his racing mind in the fondest way. It seemed to tell him stories of his father playing it and his mother enjoying the rhythm and joy of such music.
Feeling cold and shivering tears quickly escaped him. Turning behind a tall tree he told himself that when he was reunited with his mother in father some day the happiness would be indescribable and his empty soul would be filled once again. As rain fell, his tears seemed to flood up his surroundings and drown in memories. Although soaked, Jamie found himself staying positioned under the safety of the caring tree for it felt like a loving stranger.
He stayed perched on the ground but saw out of the corners of his wet eye-lids and blurred vision a person escape the dreary weather and watches him. “Who are you?” He whispered but figure had already left.
Relief fell silently over him, for he could stay in the carelessness of his own situation though a curious thought of the misty shadow pondering in his mind of confusion. But for the night, Jamie laid there silent and distressed for the future ahead did not look bright, yet he did not know sunshine was not far from his reach.
As the sun rose in the East, his tears were dried into a stone, pressed against his heart never letting his worries go. Concern was with him that morning and alarm from the faintest dream of a figure in the darkness. But in the clearest and strangest way there felt a blow of wind, which changed his level of curiosity, he had never experienced. Change was brought about in her miserable life that drew a sense of bliss. Brightening his spirits, he returned to his bedroom and his perspective changed, in a swift movement. The thrill of summer was about and sadness could not bring his spirits down for life was just beginning and he did not want to miss it. But little did he know the change of wind was fate pushing him to fall in the arms of a mysterious girl not far from his own home yet closer in his dreams.
Adeline sat on the roof of the house and leaned back gasping at the sun’s rays that warmed her cool body. As her eyes closed she breathed in a sigh of fresh air. Something new to her senses, yet they relaxed as if they were familiar with the scent. Her surroundings became soft like her colorful quilted blanket her grandmother had given to her on her seventh birthday. She appeared to be sitting on a dock, her feet wet in the water, and her pants curled up to her knees. A being, in the foggy mist appeared. He lay on the water, quietly drowning in self thought. His eyes wide, Adeline saw no reason to not help him. Swimming, with almost not effort to push forward, Adeline lay next to him looking up through the mysterious haze. “Who…are…you?” She managed to say, because slowly as she found the same connection he was entranced with she was beginning to feel still. Unlike the real world, words weren’t needed. His soul seemed to burst with feelings. But Adeline understood. Even though she had never been moved from place to place like an object with no life, she understood. The waves moved them from subject to subject. But there was quiet. Nothing. Silence. Yet everything was alright that way and nothing, it seemed could stop them from floating with the water.
It all happened so fast. Too fast. The water stopped moving and Adeline awoke to pain that flowed through the vain of her foot. Nobody appeared. Except a boy. A boy too close to her dream except now she touch him and breathe his air. Their connection was different then a relationship. It was if they had known each other their whole life. “Your…”
“Jamie.” He finished the sentence with one word that seemed to mean everything. It was a beautiful word. Jamie. Jamie. Jamie. Jamie was the best word in the whole world. It was the most precious and magical. It had it’s own meaning. The hurting stopped and was replaced with something different. Something Adeline was unable to solve. But when the moment stopped the pain started once again. And her parents showed as she opened her eyes. “Where’s Jamie?” Adeline huffed in one smooth breathe. Her skin broke out in a cold sweat, her vision blurred with water. “Jamie, Jamie”, she called. But no voice was left. And then, darkness.

Chapter 12
*I hate her*
Next day I woke at the same time got dressed did my hair and was off to school.
“Hey” Someone said from behind me I knew who it was before I even turned around “Noah” I smiled and threw my arms around him “Someone is excited to see me” he laughed I bit my bottom lip and blushed. “Heyyy” Briana said coming up behind Noah, I could not stand this girl she couldn’t get over the fact the Noah did not like her! “Hi Briana” Noah said while rolling his eyes “You want to go out after school?” “Briana I can’t?” “Why not?” she started pouting “Um, because I’m going out with Bailey” he looked at me and mouthed “Play along” “Yeah Briana he is going out with me” I said with a smirk on my face “Lets go” I said while grabbing his hand and pulling him along he laughed the whole time I was pulling him “Wow that was good, your great at playing along” He said with a huge smile on his face “Yeah well I hate that girl I can’t stand ugh and she won’t stay away from you and that makes me so mad” I said while getting frustrated “Bailey it’s okay calm down don’t worry I’m not going to like her or anyone else, Bailey I don’t fall for many girls and you, you’re the girl I have fallen for I haven’t fallen for anyone in year, Bailey you’re the one, I know you are” He said while looking me directly in the eyes “I feel like I’m going to cry, no one has never said that to me before” I said my eyes getting teary “Come here” he said while wrapping his arms around me. While I had my arms around him and my head on his shoulder I looked up there she was standing watching us hug she must have heard the whole conversation because she looked at me and mouthed “Your dead”.
It was my first day in English class luckily I got to sit beside Hailey but I was not so lucky when Briana was in my math class and I sat in front of her. I was paying no at attention at all I was to busy writing I hate Briana all threw my notebook pages. “Ring” the bell had rang to let us out of class to go to lunch, it was a relief because I would be with Noah and I would be safe.
When I got to the cafeteria and went to the table that Noah and his friends sat at “Hey Taylor, Alana, Where is Noah?” I asked “Um, You know Bailey I was about to ask you the same thing” Taylor said “Oh well I guess he will be here soon” I said in a hoping voice. Lunch was almost half way over and he still wasn’t there.
The cafeteria doors burst open and Noah and Briana came walking in she had a huge grin on her face and he was walking and smiling at people like they had been dating for months I could tell Taylor and Alana’s eyes were locked on me, I was looking at Noah with a horrified look on my face and my mouth hanging open . He came and sat down right in front of me “Hey Bailey” he said smiling I slammed my hands down on the table and marched out of the lunch room. Shane, Jacob, Mitchell, Alana, and Taylor all looked at Noah with shocked faces “What did I do?” “Dude your like practically dating Bailey and then you walk in here with Briana, I’ts just not right” Shane said while raisig his voice “Wait I mean I wasn’t doing anything with Briana Mr. Waitler wanted to talk to me after class then I bumped into Briana and I tried to walk away put she just pulled me along to the lunch, like she wanted to make Bailey jelous” Noah said realizing that Briana might be up to something “Noah have you ever considered that Birana does not like Bailey, but you do, and Briana likes you so she would do anything to make Bailey mad” Taylor butted in. All of them got up to leave except for Noah and Briana “Don’t let them get to you” Briana said in a sweet voice while putting her arm around him “Get off of me” Noah shouted and ran out the lunch room.
I was in the bathroom when Taylor walked in “Bailey are you all right” she asked me “Yeah I’m fine” I tried to smile. I had cried just a little just a little because if I cried a lot my eyes would be swollen and I didn’t want that. “Just as I thought I had found the perfect guy he goes for the mean girl, ugh I should have never fallen for him” I said frustrated “Bailey wait Noah is a great guy and I know why he came walking in with Briana he told us after you stormed out of the lunch room” “What’s the reason?” “I think that you should talk to Noah about that” She said I knew she was saying that just to give me a excuse to talk to him “Bye Bailey I’ll talk to you later” she said while walking out the bathroom. I stood there for a couple more minutes thinking about what Taylor said did Noah not like Briana? Did she force him to act happy when they walked in the lunch room? But why did he miss half of lunch?.
“Bailey are you alright?” My gym teacher Mrs. Breen asked as she seen me just sitting on the bleachers during free gym “Yeah I’m fine” I smiled. Gym was the last class of the day and I couldn’t wait for it to be over I didn’t feel like running into Noah.
As soon as the bell rang I ran got my stuff and headed for the two double doors “Bailey” I heard someone yell behind me when I turned around to my surprise it wasn’t Noah but it was Briana “Yeah Briana” I rolled my eyes “You seemed pretty mad about the whole lunch thing with Noah” she smiled “Y’know I really have to go Briana, just got brag to someone else” “Hmm okay I will, but I told I get what I want” she winked and walked away. I watch her walk all the way down the hall and when she turned the corner tears came running down my face I just stood there not even noticing Noah standing beside me “You okay?” I quickly wiped my face and tried getting passed him I was not in the mood to talk to him he stepped in front of me so I couldn’t pass “Your gonna talk to me” he said “Your not leaving till you do” “What” I said “If your going to tell me that you fell for Briana and your done with me I understand” I said trying to step past him again “Bailey I did not fall for her I was in Mr. Waitlers class and he was talking to me, on my way out I bumped in to Briana I tried turning away put she pulled me and said we should go into the lunch room” he explained “But just a minute ago Briana came up to me and said I told you I got what I wanted” I said a little louder than needed “Well obviously she didn’t if I’m here wanting you back, Bailey please” he started to whine “I can’t I just I can’t go on without you” He said looking at me with his beautiful eyes, they were full of innocence “I’m sorry it’s all my fault” I started crying again “I’m always blaming you for falling for her I’m so stupid” “Bailey you are not stupid” he said while wiping a tear from my face “Lets go, I’ll walk you out to your truck” This time I put my arm around him and rested my head right under his armpit. I was okay now I knew Noah didn’t like Briana but Briana still didn’t have Noah and I didn’t know how far she would go to get what she wanted.
Chapter 13
*I hate them both *
The next week at school wasn’t so bad I tried my best to ignore Briana but it was pretty hard, everyday so far after school I had spent with Noah it was Thursday and Noah and I had plans to go to a café near school.
“Bailey” Briana whisperd to me during class “Here she said handing me a note
“Hey Bailey instead of meeting at t
he café can you meet me down at the beach hope so see you there
Noah
“Thanks” “Sure” she said with a smile.
School went by in a blur as soon as the final bell rang I rushed out and hopped in the truck when I got there Hailey and Lily were in there “Hey Lily, what are you doing in here?” “Oh I’m staying the night tonight” She said with a smile “Hailey I’m suppose to meet Noah at the beach tonight do you think you can help me get ready?” “Sure” she said while looking at Hailey “Lily can help to if she want” “Yay! I love giving makeovers” she said while clapping her hands.
Jonas Brothers “year 3000” was blasting from Hailey’s Ipod dock Hailey, me, and Lily were all dancing around while they were throwing clothes all over the room trying to find me something to wear “Oh my gosh I found the perfect thing for you to wear” Lily gushed she was holding up a pink tennis skirt with a white tank top that said “Armani Exchange” “That’s so cute” Hailey yelled “Bails go try it on”
I was examining my self in the mirror for the first time I actually thought that I looked pretty cute. “How do I look?” I said while strutting out Hailey’s bathroom “OH MY GOD!” Hailey and Lily screamed “You look amazing” Hailey said excitedly “Noah is going to love it” Lily said “Would you like us to walk you down?” Hailey asked while running a brush through my hair “No I will be fine plus I need sometime to think” She pulled my hair into a low pony “You look adorable” she said while hugging me “Thanks okay I’ll see you guys when I get back” I said and ran out the door.
On the way down to the beach I was starting to get nervous I was getting ready to turn the corner to where Noah and I usually met when I heard someone whisper “shh” I wasn’t sure who it was so I decided to go get a closer look “Shh” they whispered again I realized who it was, it was Briana and her arms were wrapped around Noah’s neck “Briana” he said “What are you doing?” “This” she said as she was leaning in slowly her lips met his he stood there working his hands to her hips but he stopped and let them drop back down to his sides he was struggling to get away from her embrace I couldn’t believe what I was seeing I knew Briana would do some bad things but not this bad. When she finally let him go he just looked at her “What was that?” he asked shaking his head and wiping Briana’s gloss from his lips “Did you enjoy it?” she said with a devious smile I didn’t want to here that answer to that question I tried making my way back up to the house but my tears were coming so fast it was hard to see. I tripped and I couldn’t even stand up I just sat there sobbing “Bailey!” Noah yelled “Get away from me, I don’t want to see you anymore how could you!” I yelling at him “Bailey you don’t understand “Yes I do Noah you like I don’t care j-j-just leave me alone” I sobbed “Bailey just let me explain” he begged “No Noah I don’t need a explanation I seen with my own eyes you kissed her” “No I didn’t! she kissed me, Bailey at least let me help you back to your house and on the way I can explain” “No” I shouted “I can make it myself” I lifted myself off the ground my body aching I tried to make it without tripping anymore I could feel footsteps behind me and I knew it was him “Go away Noah just leave me alone!”
Chapter 14
*Getting Briana back*
I tried to make it to the house as fast as I could not worrying if he was behind me. My eyes were swollen I had mascara stains all over my face. I burst threw the front door, mom and dad were out with Lily’s parents I ran up to the steps and straight to my room Hailey’s door was open so most likely she seen me. I didn’t bother taking my clothes off and putting on my pajamas I buried my face in my pillow and sobbed “Bailey, what’s wrong!” Lily asked as her and Hailey came running into my room “Stupid…Stupid…Noah…I HATE HIM!” “What did he do?” Hailey asked while running over to my bed “When I went down to meet him” I paused for a minute “He was kissing Briana” I starting sobbing again “What oh my god no way” Lily said “We are so going to have a talk with him” “Yeah Lily lets go call him now” “Do you mind if we call him Bails?” “No it doesn’t matter I hate him”
“Hello” Noah answered “Yeah Noah this is Hailey what the heck did you do to make my sister cry?” “Hailey it was a big misunderstanding I swear I would never want to hurt her” he shouted threw the phone “Yeah well you did hurt her and she dosent want to talk to you so you can explain to me” she shouted back “Okay listen Hailey Briana gave me a note fromn Baiely that said for us to meet at the beach at a certain time when I got there Briana was there and as soon as Bailey came Brianan kissed me I had no clue what she was doing” he sounded like he was crying “What, what are you talking about Briana gave Bailey a note from you that said to meet at the beach” “Well I never wrote that” “Uh okay well I’m going to make a plan so that Bailey will talk to you I promise because I know she can’t live without you” Hailey said starting to calm down “Okay well I can’t live without her either so this better work” “Watever everything works when I do it” Hailey giggled and hung up.
“Lily we have to make a plan so that Bailey will talk to Noah” Hailey said while pacing around the room “I got” Lily said.
That night I didn’t even change out of my clothes nor did I wake up any.
“Bailey” Hailey said while barging into my room “Get your but up and get dressed sister”. She was wearing a all white juicy couture dress that said “couture” across the chest with a pair of light pink wedges “I don’t want to go to school” I groaned “To bad, you are”. I got up threw on the first pair of shorts I seen and a blue Hollister shirt “Okay I’m ready lets go” Hailey rolled her eyes at me and pulled me down the stiars.
“Bailey, we talked to Noah last night on the phone” Lily said with her eyes wide “And, why do I care?” I said sarcastically “Just saying”. I didn’t talk the whole car ride to school for some reason I couldn’t stop thinking about Noah I tride so hard to get him out of my mind but I just couldn’t
“Hailey I really don’t want to go to school can I please fake sick” I begged “No Bailey you are not faking sick” she yelled while dragging me out the truck. I seen Noah standing at the double doors and I started freaking out “Hailey can we please going in another way?” “No Bailey it’s just Noah” “Um, would you like me recap last night” I stopped and shouted “Bails calm down you will be fine” I seen Hailey give Noah a signal with her eyes and I wondered what was going on. “Hey Hailey” Noah said as soon as we walked in the door “Hey” she smiled “Um, Bailey I’m going to call Zach before school starts I think you know your way to class” she said while walking away. I knew she was up to something by leaving me alone with him. “Hey” he said to me, I just looked at him “Bailey please just let me explain” he begged “Noah I really don’t have time to listen to your excuses” “Bailey” he grabbed my arm “Noah please” I yanked away but he grabbed it again “Bailey please just give me a chance to explain and if you still don’t want to talk to me I understand” “Two minutes” I rolled my eyes. “Okay, Briana gave me a note from you that said to meet down at the beach once i got there you weren’t there but she was I she heard you coming down to meet me she leaned in and kissed me I swear I did not kiss her back I didn’t even enjoy it” he said while looking directly in my eyes and I knew he wasn’t lying “Noah I understand” I smiled. He breathed a sigh of relief “Thank you” he hugged me “But wait there has to be a way to get her back” I said “I’ll talk to Hailey about it tonight” “Okay I’ll see you at lunch” he waved goodbye.

Ann - not a dumb question.
Couple quick things:
Eliot is a girl. 17, HS senior.
I used Annie just to set-up that Eliot is a photographer - her life revolves around photography. This will be revealed more as the story moves along - it becomes more apparent…
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:43 pm
jessica- the girl who posted her IM- i have a friend like that too. They try to act all smart like how your friend said something like : ” yes you did, that’s why you ask me” DISSSSS. no no jk. but still, you don’t need a friend like that, but you should i apologize to the friend that you blocked- just think, she feels exactly the way u do about the friend that blocked YOU. just explain that your sorry, u didn’t mean to hurt any ones feelings, you said you had to go— what i do in situations like those is say my mom’s getting mad at me for IM’ing my friends and not doing hw and that i gtg and then just sign off b4 they answer- if they get pissed at you then say ure mom was crazy make a bad joke or something and then all is well. but try not to throw you mom under the bus while your doing it. i tell my mom i tell my friends that she’s yelling at me to do my hw, even though most of the time it’s true. have a goooooddd day.

April 2nd, 2009 at 2:49 pm
Ann what do you like wirting about like cliques or whhat?
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:52 pm
I have a book SORT of like the Clique. But my other one is OK.
Here’s some of it. It’s called Bruised:
One
Starting a new school is always hard for me. I can never make friends and everybody seems to laugh at my style. I’m not the…trendy…type. All of the other girls like to point at me, for being the new girl, and all of the guys like to “check me out”, then make fun. I’m always the person who sits alone at the lunch table and eats in silence. Then right when I like it or get used to it, we move. But my dad said that this was the last time we are moving. And so far, New York isn’t the place for me.
I don’t live in the city. I live in the parts where everybody is “normal”. I don’t believe any of that stuff though. Nothing is ever normal. Especially when I move there. Then things get very weird. Then the school is infested with strangeness. And I don’t expect eighth grade to be any more different than that.
Walking into school on that stormy morning was like hell. Just as I suspected, everybody stared. They stared at my guitar. They stared at my uneven almost-brunette-blond hair. They stared at my unusually pale skin. They searched me with their eyes. And I ran through the crowd to reach the end of the hallway. Everybody stared at me along the way. Especially the popular girls. And the cheerleaders. Which are basically the same thing.
My mind raced until I reached the middle of the hallway – where the stairs to the second floor were. My mind asked me stupid questions like am I wearing something ok? Is my guitar case undented? Is any of my hair sticking to the buttons on the back of my skirt? Does my jacket have holes? But when I saw that one other girl standing there, being laughed at like me, I immediately thought positive thoughts.
I raced over to her locker. My locker – 2764 – was right next to hers. A perfect excuse to talk to her. I entered my locker permutation, side glancing her. I noticed her jet black hair and paper white skin. Her finger nails looked like talons compared to my extremely short ones. And I noticed she had a guitar strapped to her also. She was like my twin. (Minus the black hair.)
“Hey,” I said, shoving my backpack into my locker, trying to be casual. She turned towards me in a sweet-and-friendly poise. Her eyes were like a golden ocean – they were full of tears strapping themselves down and preparing for takeoff. I looked at her sorrowfully. And I thought I was melancholy.
“Hi,” she said quietly. She had two extremely long cyanine teeth on parts of the sides of her mouth. Her tears unbuckled themselves and left sight as if they were being vacuumed away. “Are you new here?” I hated those four words. I thought of lying to her, but she was so innocent and sweet I couldn’t tell her, oh no, I just came from the city. I’ve lived in (insert state name here) all my life!
“Yeah,” I said. “I moved from Massachusetts.” The girl slammed her locked shut and tossed her textbooks into the red bag around her shoulder. Her guitar case was the finest leather I’ve ever seen. It was shiny and rich, and the metal on it wasn’t rusty like mine – it was polished and gold. I got extremely envious.
“That’s cool. I love it there,” she said. “You’ve been?” I asked. She nodded slowly and turned to look behind her. A guy behind her with shaggy raven hair going into his face and red eyes was looking at her in a hurry up manner. She turned back to face me, completely ignoring him.
“Yeah. Sorry I forgot my manners,” she told me. I cocked my head to the side, trying to figure out what she meant. “My name is Jennifer,” she extended her palm, struggling to keep balance from all of her stuff rolling over onto one side. I met her hand and shook. I didn’t know if I was supposed to be firm or be sensitive. I just shook her hand and let the thoughts go.

There is WAY more though.

April 2nd, 2009 at 2:53 pm
kayyy- omg i luvvvvvv it!! soo dramatic! awww i love noah, hes soo cute!
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:55 pm
i like ur story jessica. have u posted it on here before? it seems familiar
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:56 pm
I think so.
But only like, 2 people read it.
Here’s more:
“My name is Amber,” I told her and looked at the boy behind her. He looked almost exactly like her, except his eyes were red. He looked about five foot and eleven inches tall from where I was staring. His hair went into his eyes and his face, not messily, but actually kind of…sexily. He had tight, sheet white skin and not-too-bushy-or-not-too-thin eyebrows. His arms were pretty muscley, judging from under his black dress shirt. He looked like he had eye liner on, but not in a girly way. More like in a masculine way. And his lips looked shiny, but not like he was wearing lip gloss or like they were sloppy and gross. They were pretty full also. He had no freckles, no acne, no pimples, and no football jersey or jacket on. He was pretty cute, but I would never have a chance with him.
Jennifer shut my locker for me and put my textbooks in my bag. She was pretty strong for a girl, unlike me, who could barely hold a college ruled notebook. I think she realized I was staring at the guy behind her.
Jennifer started to walk away, but then stopped halfway and turned towards me. The guy look exasperated at Jennifer, but she didn’t seem to care. “Aren’t you coming?” she asked me. I stared at her for a moment, just to make sure she was being serious. After a while, I realized she was and speed walked over to her.
“Jason, this is my new best friend, Amber,” Jennifer told the guy. He towered over me, but only by a few inches. He was barely six feet tall, he was only about five-three, but he was still pretty tall for me. Jason turned towards me, having to lean over Jennifer since she was being in the middle, and smiled. It wasn’t a great, I’ve met you, now go away smile. He looked sincere. I instantly blushed and turned away.
“Amber, Jason is my…” I expected Jennifer to tell me Jason was her boyfriend, telling how much she was on him. “Brother.” This took me by surprise. Why would Jason and Jennifer be almost on top of each other? I left that question hanging in my mind and moved on. We were walking towards Language Arts, my first period, and apparently Jason’s and Jennifer’s too.
Jason and Jennifer went straight towards their seats. I stood in the front of the classroom, searching it with my eyes to find an empty seat. Jennifer and Jason sat next to each other in the last row of the classroom, with one person in between them. Jennifer looked up and saw me acting like a loser, so she tried to shove the kid in between her and her brother away. But the pudgy fat kid wouldn’t move. I watched her plead to him to make him move. Finally she held out a five dollar bill, handed it to him, kicked him out of his seat, and waved me over. I laughed and strut over, trying to unbutton my jacket as I did to look hot for Jason. I was sure that he wouldn’t notice, but it was worth a shot.
I slammed my bag in front of the desk and walked around – not around Jennifer, but around Jason. I sauntered over to my seat and touched the back of his seat, hoping my fingers would catch his jacket. Unfortunately, they didn’t and I was stuck looking like a whore.
“What was that little move?” Jennifer whisper-giggled to me. I shrugged.

g2g bye guys!
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:02 pm
You’ll seeeeeee
“So, Amber,” Jason said to me. His flawless face made all of the blood rush from my body to my face, giving it some color. I looked like a cherry compared to him. When he talked, he had two long cyanine teeth on the sides of his mouth like Jennifer. That was weird. It made them look like bloodsuckers.
“Where are you from?” I flung my head towards Jason. My hair flew in my face and got in my mouth, but I left it. “Massachusetts,” I replied a little too quickly. “You know, it’s pretty close to New York, it has the same time difference, but here I think it’s a little warmer and…” I instantly stopped myself. I was rambling. I turned away and hit my forehead with my wrist. Then I flipped back to Jason.
But a stick thin girl sauntered by and brushed Jason’s back lightly. “Hey Jase,” she said and sauntered back away with her posse. Jason rolled his eyes at her and silently laughed to me. I smiled at him and turned towards my binder. It was open to a blank page, so I started doodling.
I drew flowers and butterflies. I drew birds. I drew trees. I drew hearts. I even attempted drawing Jason. But he turned out disfigured, his right arm coming out of his neck and his hair looking like a girl’s. I finally gave up when the teacher came into the room.
She was kind of…round. With thick orange hair and grey eyes. Her sixties style told me that she was a woman of history. Her flaming hair said, “I NEED SOME MOISTURE!” But my mom always said that the weirdest teachers were the best. I had always listened to my mom. But right now, I might be doubting her.
“Hello class,” she said. “Let’s jump right into the book we are reading.” She scanned the class, checking to be sure everybody had their books out and highlighted. I never got the book, since nobody bothered to tell me it, so I panicked and tugged on Jennifer’s. Her book was highlighted with green highlighter and had some writings in the margins.
“What?” she whisper-yelled. “Let me borrow your book!” I whisper-yelled back. I only just met Jennifer and I was already feeding off of her? What kind of friend was I? Was I really that much of a coward to just raise my hand and tell my teacher that I never got it? I wonder if Jason had another copy?
“Girls?” The teacher said and flipped her hair. “Is there a problem?” Me and Jennifer sat and stared at each other. My fingers were trembling. My first day back and I was already making a bad impression? What kind of student was I?
“Yes,” I finally blurted. If I am a delinquent, I might as well embrace it. “Well then quit your blabber-blab-bloob and tell me!” she said. “I don’t have a copy of the book.” The teacher stared at me. She looked like she was comparing me to Jason and Jennifer. I barely knew anything about anything around these areas, and I might as well not try. I will be moving in about three months anyway.
“Why?” She twisted her head to the side, her eyes following me along the way. Her nose lifted in the air and she looked like a philosophy-loving snob. “Because I’m new,” I said, almost adding the word “duh” into the sentence. But I thought that would be moving too fast, for a delinquent of my species.
Jason chuckled, and I elbowed him in the stomach. Once I realized what I did, I immediately regretted it. How could I hurt the most perfect person in the world? Maybe I really was a screw-up.
“Well snooty-booty, I have an extra copy,” she said. “What is your name?” I looked at Jennifer for some reason. Jennifer was picking her cuticles and laughing. I elbowed her also.
“Well have you forgotten your name?” the teacher asked. “What is it?” She opened the book to the back of the front cover and uncapped a Sharpie. “Amber,” I told her, twisting around in my seat. Jason chuckled again, but then stopped when he saw my dangerous eye.
“Amber what?” she said. “Amber Planter,” I told her. She scribbled my name on the back of the front and handed it to me. I looked inside. It said Amber Planter and next to it said L Dr. Period 1. L Dr.? What did that stand for? Love Doctor? I highly doubt it.
The book was the Call of the Wild. That seemed like a pretty interesting book. I always liked stories about the wilderness.
I got out a yellow highlighter and started highlighting whatever Jennifer and Jason had highlighted. They had the same things traced, so they probably did their homework together.

April 2nd, 2009 at 3:06 pm
Kay- I like your story’s plot but I think you should take things slow with Bailey and Noah. Everything goes by really fast. you should like slowly build up their friendship and maybe if you want you could make it so that she dosnt understand and continues to be mad at him. cuz like one min their going out the next their fighting and then their back together again. its really cunfuzziling.
heres an example-(im not trying to copy it but I just want to give you good advice… I hope you don’t mind kay.)
Noah was standing at the door leaning against the wall in that adorable way of his. Except his eyebrows were creased in worry. I freeze and my stomach tightens. I feel like throwing up. I turn towards Hailey.
“Can we go another way? Please?” I say pleading. Hailey looks away for a moment and I see something flash between them. I become suspicious.
Kay- Thats what im trying to say. I hope you dont mind. im not criticizing or anything.

April 2nd, 2009 at 3:16 pm
Sorry, I went to dinner.
Here’s more:
While I was highlighting, a piece of notebook paper ended up on my desk. It had writing on it. I read:
I hate this class. What about you?
xo, J
I didn’t know if J was Jason or Jennifer. Or was it another student? I doubt that Jason would put “xo” on a note to me, so I just went with the flow and guessed Jennifer wrote it. But just to make sure, I turned my head towards Jennifer’s desk. She had a calligraphy pen in hand (uncapped), staring off into space.
It’s ok I guess. I liked my L.A. class at my school in MA
How was it there?
xo, J
Well for #1, the teacher wasn’t a total nut job. #2, We actually did work instead of just listen to the teacher rant on about some boring old book I’ve never even heard of before.
Yeah. This class is pretty much a magnet for cell phones, note passing, romance, and gossip
xo, J
I picked up my pen, ready to write something, but then I skimmed Jennifer’s note. What did she mean a magnet for romance? What happened in this classroom? WHAT HAPPENED IN THE SEAT I WAS SITTING IN? Did people like to get on top of each other in class? What kind of school was this?
And a magnet for gossip? Does that mean whenever you do something, by the end of the day people will know about it? Were there no secrets? Again, what kind of school was this?
Jennifer snatched the paper from under my arm and started writing on it before I could say “Jason”.
Do you think you could help me out on my handwriting? Yours is so neat and mine is so sloppy.

Oh great. My dad always wanted me to tutor underprivileged students. I just never thought that I was talented or smart enough to.
Jason read the notes over my shoulder. He grabbed the paper from me and started sketching on it. Did I ever get a rest from these two? Think of how many paper cuts I will get by the end of the week if we do this everyday. I think I already have three.
Don’t listen to Jennifer. Nothing really romantic happens in here. Besides girls passing notes to guys with lipstick marks on them.
Jason, how would you know that?
xo, J
I sat in the middle of the two, avoiding the killer piece of notebook paper being passed in front of my face. Tomorrow I might have to wear a bandana over my face to prevent paper cuts on my nose. I might get sliced to pieces one day.
Finally I grabbed the paper from Jason’s hands and starting writing on it. I didn’t even bother reading what they wrote. It was none of my business.
If you pass this paper anymore then I might get sliced to pieces
Jason was the first one to respond. That made my heart leapt when he touched my arm to grab the paper. His skin was extremely icy and I didn’t realize that before when I elbowed him. In fact, his fingertips were so cold, I actually got stung by it. Even though I felt invincible when Jason spoke to me, I would probably become a penguin if he touched me anymore. His words were fire, but the rest was ice. I wonder if he was having a battle within his intestines.
Sorry Amber
My heart pounded when he wrote my name. It was like he gave me wings and I flew up to heaven with him, where everything was perfect and sweet. Where his body wasn’t icy anymore. I could just picture our marriage.
So help me with my handwriting?
xo, J
Sure. Come over to my house with me this afternoon. My dad will be pleased I made a friend.
Great. I’ll come home with you on the bus

Here is the rest of the chapter. It’s 12 pages on MSW:
–
That day in gym, we were supposed to play volleyball.
Luckily, I had fitness.
But the sad part is, that was the only sport I was really good at. I hated all other ones – soccer, basketball, softball, baseball. Anything really. In those games you see the ball, chase the ball, catch the ball, and sink it into a net or out into a field where some poor soul has to go fetch it.
Volleyball, on the other hand, is different. You actually can run around and hit people in the face with it when it flies over the net. And that doesn’t cause a penalty like in any other games. But if you don’t hit the ball correctly, then its “illegal”. But whatever. It’s still totally fun.
And one of the other reasons why it is extremely fun, is because Jason is in my physical education class. That means he gets to see me in shorts. (Not that he would be interested in me. I bet he likes a canary more than he likes me.)
But the only problem was, we they were doing partner volleyball. And (if I was playing) I didn’t have a partner, being new and all. Plus when I got into the gym, I had no idea what to do. Everybody was doing different things with their ‘cliques’ – painting each other’s nails, gossiping on the bleachers, trying to cut themselves with nerds’ stolen protractors, doing last week’s math homework, dancing in the middle of the court to whatever song comes on, jogging around the track, playing tag, playing with the scoreboard, messing with the equipment, sleeping, fighting, reading, etc. I searched for Jason among the crowd of students. I finally found him multitasking – jogging, dancing, and playing tag. I watched him for a while until he went to the center of the court to dance.
He tried to break-dance to some funky techno song blaring from the stereo, but fell over backwards when trying to do a back flip. He landed on his back, but turned his head and looked my direction. He looked at me. My heart skipped a beat.
Jason smiled and gave a painful face. I jogged over to him as fast as I could and he extended his arms to me. I grabbed his hands and pulled him up. Jason’s hands were icy and rough. But strangely…I enjoyed it.
“Are you ok?” I asked him, loud enough for the girls on the bleachers to hear. If word got around school that me and him were together, then maybe the dream would become a reality. But I did just meet him…oh well. The heart wants what the heart wants.
“I’m fine,” he said, rubbing the back of his head. “You didn’t have to rush over here.” He was smiling when he said this. What a liar.
“No, I wanted to,” I smiled back. “You really looked hurt.” “It did hurt,” he told me. “Then you came to aid me.” “Yeah,” I muttered. “I’m a real saint.” We laughed.
Suddenly the gym doors burst open. Three Nike-clad adults came into the room, holding shiny black clipboards. Two of them were men, one was a woman. Everybody that wasn’t jogging, started to. Except for the girls painting their nails, who were trying not to tip the nail polish bottles over. The coaches smiled.
I started jogging next to Jason. I hated to go any faster than ten miles-per-hour, so it looked like I was jogging, but I was actually just bouncing on my toes. Jason, I noticed (obviously), was doing the same.
“Whose class are you in?” he huffed at me. I pulled out a piece of white paper that was folded multiple times into a little rectangle from my shorts pocket. I checked the schedule. “Mrs. Heinman?” I told him in a confused tone. He sighed. “I’m in Mr. Mongolian’s,” he told me. “Mr. Aych is supposed to be in the health room, but he makes his students run. It’s so stupid.” I pretended to agree by nodding vigorously.
A whistle blew and everybody started to do a cool-down walk. The woman gym teacher walked over to the big blue doors with one hand raised. A handful of students went and followed her over. Jason nudged me to go, but I stood my ground. I was frozen in place for a reason unknown.
“Go,” he told me and started dragging me over. I finally started walking and he let me go. I turned around to him, pleading for help, but his back was turned. I had no choice.
Mrs. Heinman led us into the fitness room. It was a very crisp, clean place. It had blue carpet and white walls with fitness equipment on the rim of the room. Blue mats were in a giant square in the middle of the room and there were multicolored tapes running along them for a reason unknown to me. People piled onto the mats to wherever they pleased. I took a seat behind a small girl with large blond hair.
“Today we are going to use the fitness equipment,” Mrs. Heinman told us. I sat on one of the StairMasters, picking at the little blue circles that appeared on it. Mrs. Heinman blabbed on about the safety and how to use them while I picked. I finally got one off and put it on a boy’s head next to me. It sat almost directly in the center of his dark hair. I giggled to myself.
“You four girls, over to the weight station,” Mrs. Heinman pointed to me, the big-haired blond girl, a girl with extremely pale skin, and another girl with poofy hair on the top and stick straight hair on the bottom. I got up from the StairMaster and followed my group to a rack with colorful weights and strings. I grabbed a green weight and started lifting. The big-haired blond came over to me and stared at me. I pretended I didn’t see her.
“Are you just going to stare at me?” I asked her. She shook her head extremely fast and smiled. “Sorry,” she said with a light country accent. “I always seem to tune out when I’m lifting weights. It makes it easier.” “Oh.”
“My name is Dolly by the way,” she said. Dolly. What an interesting name. “I’m Amber,” I told her monotone. “Are you new here?” Dolly put down the weight she was using and picked up a large yellow one with the number 14 on the side of it in white.
“Yeah,” I said. “It gets annoying, because nobody knows you and you have no friends and the teacher seem to hate you for not having assignments…” I blabbed on. “I know how it feels,” Dolly told me. “I was new here last year. All of the girls thought I was just some southern whore. But my accent is going away quickly and I am getting better at dressing myself. The first day of school here I came in jean short shorts and a red plaid tank top. Big mistake that was.” She put down her weight and grabbed a green string. While she told me about her first day here, I watched her do bicep curls. My mind raced about Jason. What was he doing? Was he thinking about me?
“Want to sit next to me at lunch?” Dolly asked me. I looked up at her and nodded. She smiled widely as we went on to our next fitness station. Maybe being here wasn’t so bad. Maybe I could actually survive here.
Key word: maybe.

Asia finely won so Lexie could play. Lexie swung her long skinny arms back for the serve “don’t kill me the world is going to end” Asia blurted Lexie was sick and tired of Asia always putting her down. “haha very funny” Lexie smirked aiming for Asia’s head Lexie did her serve after losing she felt depressed Asia was never any better than she was she felt verbally slapped in the face and robbed of talent. In her head she was going to get her back whether she liked it or not.

do u like?
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:35 pm
Well, its sort of like Twilight, except with different features, rules, and Jason isn’t like,
“Oooooh Amber be afraid of meeeeee. I’m so hoooooot. I’m the vampireeee. Don’t get hurtttttt. You smell so goodddddddd but I can’t eat youuuuuu.”
He’s more like:
“Amber, want to go to a party with me?”
And they don’t start out hating each other. Plus everybody in Jason and Jennifer’s family likes her, unlike how Rosalie hated her.
And they all LIKE being vampires.
So. Yep.
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:37 pm
Wow Courtney.
It’s really…long.

That’s a very powerful dream. Mine is just to sell at least 100 books of Bruised. I’ve been working on it since september and I have 87 MSW pages of it. Still working though.
Here’s more:
Two
When the bell rang to go to lunch, I shot up from my science table and ran out of the room. The last two periods were hell without somebody to talk to. Jennifer sat on the other side of the room in study hall and I sat alone during science.
“Amber!” Jennifer called after me. “Wait up!” I stopped running and waited by the bathroom for her to catch up. Jennifer finally got to my location, huffing loudly.
“Why such the rush?” she asked me, brushing off her skirt. “No rush,” I lied. “I just saw this girl from my fitness class…” Jennifer raised an eyebrow and we started walking. “Her name is Dolly,” I explained to her. “I promised her I’d sit with her at lunch.” Jennifer frowned. “Then tell her to sit with you, because your sitting with me,” she demanded. Too tired to fight, I just kept my mouth closed and sped walked to the cafeteria.
Me and Jennifer went straight to the salad table. Dolly was there, so I grabbed her shoulder, which made her jump.
“Dolly,” I said monotone (again). “Oh hey Amber!” she said in her soft country accent. “Dolly,” I said again. “Do you mind if you sit with me?” Dolly shook her head. “No, no, not at all!” she said and scooped bacon and hard boiled eggs into her salad. “Only if you let me bring a few friends along.” Dolly winked at me and grabbed a ranch dressing. She went hurrying off to her table to tell two other girls she was leaving.
“I know her!” Jennifer appeared out of nowhere, with a plump T-bone on top of her salad. “She’s from Georgia.” I nodded and followed Jennifer to a giant grey table in the back of the cafeteria. Jason was sitting there with two other people who were pale white. The girl had golden hair with earrings riding up all along her ears and the boy had chocolate brown hair and was super bony. The girl’s earrings – I noticed, were all either black, silver, or bronze studs or small hoops. She had almost twenty of them – or so it looked like. The boy had sloppy brown hair. His fingers were bony, but his nails were sharp, and his sweatshirt looked like it was knocking him over. I threw down my lunch tray and sat.
“So should I get the earring on my right ear–” Jason said, pinching the top of his right ear. “Or my left ear?” The girl put down her (steak?) sandwich and swallowed hard. “Totally the left ear,” she said is a hoarse, deep voice. She had heavy black eye shadow on, with what looked like eye liner making a design on the side of her face. Silver rhinestones complimented the design.

That was barely anything. Sorry. Here’s more:
“Get them on both,” the boy said. “It will look more retro.”
“Amber, what do you think?” Jason asked me, without turning. I didn’t even know he saw me arrive! I was just listening! I didn’t want any part of this conversation. “I…I…I…” I stuttered. Suddenly Dolly popped in alone.
“Hey Amber,” she said in her accent. “I guess we are sitting here?” “Yeah,” I muttered to her. She pulled out her chair and plopped down. “I’m Dolly,” Dolly said and extended her hand to the sheet-white people. They just stared at her hand as she pulled back, embarrassed.
“So, Amber, which ear?” Jason pinched his ears and pulled them up. “Err…” I looked out the magnificent window behind them. Birds were sitting on trees and flowers were blooming out from the ground. Too bad they were going to die soon. Winter was on it’s way. Soon New York will be covered in white blankets.
“Ok, Jason, enough about your earrings,” Jennifer said. Dolly giggled and took a forkful of salad in her mouth. Jason, the girl, and the boy cringed at the sight of it. The girl picked up her sandwich and squeezed it. Red liquid that looked like blood dribbled out of it. She brought her mouth under the waterfall and slurped it up. I noticed she had two cyanine teeth also, except hers were ridiculously long. She had golden eyes also. The boy had red eyes.
“Christina, Oliver, this is Amber and Dolly, if you already didn’t know that,” Jennifer took a swig of a bottle full of red liquid. Christina looked up from the floor. Her golden eyes were paler than Jennifer’s were. I shuddered at the sight of her scariness. She looked like a dragon with gorgeous skin…or worse.
“Hey Jennifer, I forgot a drink,” I told her. “Mind if I drink some of your–” “NO!” Jennifer slapped my hand. “I mean…no. I’m sick. COUGH COUGH! See?” I rolled my eyes. Why was everybody acting so weird?
–
I went home that afternoon with Jennifer clutching to me like a fat person to a chocolate bar.
My mom (Nikki) and my dad (Ethan) were sitting at the kitchen table, sipping coffee and reading their books for their Couples-Book-Club. This week it was Withering Heights by Dorothy Cannell. I tried to read it the night we were moving from Massachusetts, but it was too long and barely had any dialog. The cover was weird also, I couldn’t understand the concept of a mansion and gates. But whatever. I don’t care what my parents read, as long as it’s not my diary.
I went into the kitchen, with Jennifer still clutching to my side, and started microwaving Tyson chicken. It was good brain food and dinner when Nikki and Ethan were out of the house. Ethan looked up from his girlish book (I figure the wives/girlfriends chose the book this week) and examined Jennifer. He did this with all of my friends. If they didn’t have any tattoos, “Emo” markings, or anything like that, then they were fine. Jennifer noticed Ethan staring at her and did something weird. She stared at his eyes and clenched her teeth together. But when she finally blinked, Ethan turned back to reading.
“Welcome home Ambs,” Nikki said and got up to refill her green mug with coffee. “Whose your friend?” Nikki turned around on the counter, rested her arms on the cold granite, and smiled. The coffee maker jumped into life, rushing to make more caffeine.

Chloe tossed the last ball into the hoop just before the bell rang signaling the end of the class period. She skipped to her gym locker and started to change out of the gym uniform. As she was changing she heard Theresa and Talia the most notorious girls for gossip in the whole 8th grade. Usually didn’t listen at all but she couldn’t help overhearing.
“I mean who in their right minds would do that?”Talia said.
“YA! Who would?” Theresa parroted.
“I mean its like shes trying extra hard to be a loser. she probably thinks she will go unnoticed if she does that. How totally stupid!”
“Totally!”
“Who would rip their jeans on purpose?”
“Who would?”
“YOU would.”
“No I wouldn’t!” They started giggle slapping each other. Chloe turned away from them and their utter stupidity. Swinging her purse she wonders who this new girl is that is causing Talia and Theresa to to go nuts. Chlo walks up the short steps to the locker bay. Alot of girl are milling around her locker. Hardly surprising Chloe. They were always there ever since Chloe did an article that got into Teen Vogue. Instantly she was swarmed as the girls came rushing at her like bees after honey. They all started speaking at once.
“Should I wear Hot pink or Totally Hot Pink?”
“OMG! I heard you were going out with Tyler M.!”
“I love him!”
“Hes so hot.”
“Did you really get to meet Britney Spears!”
“Ewww that slut!”
Chloe turned towards them knowing their was no way out of their questions. so she answered them.
“OK Girls. one by one OK.I have to get to English! So I think you should go with Hot pink and I wish I was going out with him and no I didn’t meet Britney. Now move and I gotta go.” Chloe tried to push through the throng of girls. Than all of a sudden a girl grabbed her scarf that was tied around her neck and another grabbed her purse yanking it out of her hand. Chloe fell on the floor landing right on her back. Pain seized her and for a moment she thought she was going to pass out. Than some one took her hand and pulled her up. Chloe looked at him couldn’t help but gasp. He had light brown hair that glowed when the light touched it and amazing green eyes. His lips looked full and he had such a gentle and shy smile that Chloe felt like hiding under her bed. He shook out his hair and let her hand go.
“You okay?”he asked in a soft voice.
“Yes thank you for helping me.”
“no problem. are you like some hot celebrity or something because they were like stampeding you.”
But all Chloe could think was that he had just called her HOT!!!
“uh no. i just had a n article and a picture in Teen Vogue. They think im like some special editor now or something.”
“wow. that sucks. i mean the part about them.” he chuckled sympathetically.
“I know it seriously does. im thinking of changing schools.”
“What? No you shouldn’t do that. I mean you know don’t let them bring you down…” He shrugged and stuck his hands in his pockets embarrassed.
Chloe looked at him and felt like her whole world had changed its course.
In Truth. It had.
Ok so thats all I got to. k.

bye guys. i hope you liked my story. comment please.
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:27 pm
I’m writing a new short story (don’t worry I’m not forgetting about my old one!) key word: SHORT. I’ll post chapters like a series being unfolded!
Hope you Love <33
Chapter One:
Opheila didn’t want to move. She hated moving. Moving was for kids who’s parents had to much time to care about their kids and were transferred from one big company to another. And unfortuantely, I was one of them. The Moving kid.
I’d made lots of friends, so you can’t call me a complete loser. I don’t have braces, I have naturally straight teeth, I have okay hair and I’m not ugly. So I’m not like…a geek. But I don’t stay at one school at a time to make lots of friends, that’s all.
Okay…so that’s not all. So I’m incapable of keeping close friends. I always wanted a life like Gilmore Girls. She had a mom she could tell anything to, and nothing (like work or a buzzing Blackberry at dinner) got in the way of that. She never had to move and she wasn’t rich…not that I’m wishing money away its just I would rather have a normal life than all the money in the world. And look, in Gilmore Girls their so, happy and they have problems and they get over them together! My mom’s problems: what international meeting should be hosted tomorrow night, the one on world treaties or the one of local communites sponsering women’s rights? My problems: what should I wear for my first impression (again?), Jimmy Choos or BCBG heels?
I know what your thinking. I’m a spoiled child. I’m one of those kids who screams everytime I don’t get what I want. That’s NOT true. And thats probably why the last three times I’ve been to public school, I want to be a NORMAL kid, the kids have singled me out as a richie, someone who has enough materialistic things to replace people in their life.
So I’m fed up. Completely fed UP. And that’s why I’m going to a private school this year. Where there are kids just like me and I don’t have to worry about being a “richie” or worrying about how I look or who I am. Wait…do I?
*************
Should I continue writing? This is just a random idea! COMMENT!!! -Veronica

Look at this email I just sent out:
http://www.pamshouseblend.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=9292
If link doesn’t work:
“Wow, Fred Phelps and his Religious whacko parishioners (aka his family) from the Westboro Baptist Church paid a visit to our neighborhood’s local high school, Desert Mountain, yesterday. The high school’s big sin? Apparently they have a large Gay-Straight Alliance club at the school and plenty of students willing to give up an afternoon to show support for their gay and lesbian fellow students, which is a big enough offense to draw these horrible homophobic hate-mongers to our sleepy little community.
Hmmm, could it be that even full-time homophobes like Fred Phelps enjoy a sunny working vacation once in a while too? After all, it’s got to be more pleasant to hate monger in balmy 75 degree weather than in 10 degree weather with snow and sleet. A little sunshine, a few margaritas, and some spicy mexican food - I’d say that’s the perfect prescription for re-energizing a family who has dedicated their lives to spreading hatred and vitriol anywhere and everywhere that doesn’t meet their holiness standards.
This has made my day. It was very gratifying to see so many kids and adults from my neighborhood and also from the neighboring high school (the one I graduated from) take time off from their busy schedules to be there, with signs in hand, to let these people know that their homophobia and hatred will not be tolerated in our community. And it didn’t take the Phelps clan long to get the message either, they sure didn’t hang around very long.”
Watch the video on the link.
It’s terrible what people think. Here is what a girl on polyvore says:
“ok, this is something that i am very happy about!
so, i go to school at DMHS and yesterday there was a planned protest after school from the Westborough Baptist Church. they are very again gays and since our high school has the largest GSA club (gay-straight alliance) in the country they came to protest it.
well, we decided to stand up for our school and support our gays! the students planned and protest against them!
the amount of people who showed up was incredable!!! (and i was totally there)
we had hundreds of people!! (they had about 10, lol)
we all had signs, and flags and stuff and we would try to get cars to honk for support as the drove by (the traffic was insane!!! plus, there were so many cops, lol) and we would start screaming and cheering whenever they would! there were tons of ppl who drove by with signs and stuff to show support! (one car drove by blasting “i kissed a girl”!!! it was great!) we chanted things like “its ok to be gay” and stuff, and just showed the we totally supported the gays at our school!
it was so amazing!! (and we made the news! look below for links) and we had to leave around 3:30 caz the middle school nearby was letting out, but when the busses went by, they all put down the windows and cheered for us! it was great!
it was only about an hour long, but i could barley talk afterwards from all the screaming, lol. but it was totally worth it!”
Forward this to all of your friends, saying that you support gays and think that gay marriage should be legalized!!!!!!

Chapter Two
I love clothes. I really do. I just have when people catergorize who you are because of what you wear. Does it really matter THAT MUCH? I completely cannawt understand why girls will not become friends with a girl who wears TJMAXX instead of juicy, not like I shop there of course, its just a metaphor. That’s why I’m glad I’ll be wearing a uniform this year.
Roger, my driver, pulled into the Starbucks drive-through. “A non-fat-chai no foam latte please.”
“The usual.” Roger chuckled into the speaker phone.
“Venti or tall?” He asked.
“Venti def—I mean please.”
“Here you go.” He passed back my venti.
“Thanks Roger.” I said through slurping. I would need the caffeine. Today was shopping for my new school. I only had four hours and three credit cards to spend it and buy a whole new wardrobe.
We pulled in to the mall parking lot. “What time should I pick you up Opheila?” He asked.
“Ummm…” I checked my iPhone. It was 1:31 PM. “5:00.” I said. School started tomorrow and I still had to pick out my outfit and buy school supplies.
“Of course. Have fun.”
“Bi!” I ran out from the limo clinging my black peacoat to my big chest. I let my huge red curls fall, to make my hair look hot.
The mall was my runway. I loved strutting down the sleek floors. A boy at the door winked at my and I giggled flirtiously letting my funny side slip. I loved shopping.

Chapter Two
I rushed out of Marc Jacobs and dragged my heavy bags through the tall doors of the mall exit. My arms were starting to hurt, and so did my legs. I checked my watch. “Oh my gosh!” I squeaked, feeling my knees locked I my body fell to the ground as I saw the time. It was 6:39 PM and Roger was no where to be found. I thought about crying, but I didn’t want my mascara to smear. I checked my complection in my Chanel mirror. Bright, natural, and beatiful…as usual. I smiled at myself but then stopped as I saw a dark figure coming my way. Think! My mind raced. I tried remembering my karate moves from a self defense class I took last year. Kick left swing right or was it Duck right hit left? The figure came closer. But it wasn’t a criminal coming my way. It looked like a Abercrombie model way more. OMG x10! I thought, seeing I way laying on the ground. I immediately got up, fluffed my curls, and looked off into the distance as if I were doing nothing.
“Are you okay?” The boy asked, approaching me. Gawd, I thought, he IS hot. He had blonde, natural highlights that streaked in his shiny brown hair and shiny whitened teeth.
“Ex-cuse me?” I threw my hair back, unsuccesfully because all my bags were on my arms.
“Are you okay? You were sitting on the ground. Well, actually more like..laying on the ground.”
“I had uhh, lost one of my earrings.”
“Oh, cool. I’m Washington.”
“Heyy Washington.” We stood in silence for a moment.
“Oh, I’m sorry I’m, uhhh.., I’m Opheila.” How stupid was I? He probablu thought I was a dumb girl, who had a first name and didn’t even know how to spell it. UGH!
“Do you need help, with your bags? You seem to be carrying alot of them.”
“Oh, uh, sure.” He took off a heavy load of designer brand bags. “Thanks so much. Washington, huh? That’s a awesome name.”
“Yeah, I was named after my grandfather.”
“Cool.” I answered.
“So, do you have a ride?” Ride? It took me a minute for me to realize I needed a ride, or what it was for that matter.
“Yeah I do. Or at least I did.”
“Do you need one?” Did I? I guess I did..
“Nah.”
“So what school do you go to, I haven’t seen you around…”
“I’m going to Carolyn Academy for Young Women this fall.”
“That’s awesome.” He threw his super-hot bangs back. Sooo cute! “I go to their brother school Washington Academy. My dad’s the director.”
“Omigosh, then I guess I’ll be seeing you around.”
“I guess so.” He said walking, away, with my bags!
“Where are you going?”
“To my BMW. You stay right there.” So I did, I was officially hypnotized by his magic.
“‘Kayy.” I managed, shivering from the cold.
In 3 minutes his warm black BMW pulled up. “Get in.” He said. So, I took a chance and I jumped in.
I’d never been alone with a boy, in a car. It was scary but sooo exciting at the same time.
“I’m definetly not a car guy. I’m more into sports. Do you play?”
“Yeah.”
“Thats great. Your probably into lacrosse, am I right?”
“No, I’m more of a soccer chick.” He raised his eyebrows. “I like that.” He said stepping on the engine and my heart jumped. “Down here.” I said leading the road to my house. “Thanks Washington, for the ride.”
“Luv the ride by the way.” I yelled running up the cold steps to my mansion.
“Me too. I like you too.” He left in an instant. And I stood in the cold thinking about Washington. Just Washington.

Chapter 14
*I want him back*
I tried to make it to the house as fast as I could not worrying if he was behind me. My eyes were swollen I had mascara stains all over my face. I burst threw the front door, mom and dad were out with Lily’s parents I ran up to the steps and straight to my room Hailey’s door was open so most likely she seen me. I didn’t bother taking my clothes off and putting on my pajamas I buried my face in my pillow and sobbed “Bailey, what’s wrong!” Lily asked as her and Hailey came running into my room “Stupid…Stupid…Noah…I HATE HIM!” “What did he do?” Hailey asked while running over to my bed “When I went down to meet him” I paused for a minute “He was kissing Briana” I starting sobbing again “What oh my god no way” Lily said “We are so going to have a talk with him” “Yeah Lily lets go call him now” “Do you mind if we call him Bails?” “No it doesn’t matter I hate him”
“Hello” Noah answered “Yeah Noah this is Hailey what the heck did you do to make my sister cry?” “Hailey it was a big misunderstanding I swear I would never want to hurt her” he shouted threw the phone “Yeah well you did hurt her and she dosent want to talk to you so you can explain to me” she shouted back “Okay listen Hailey Briana gave me a note from Bailey that said for us to meet at the beach at a certain time when I got there Briana was there and as soon as Bailey came Brianan kissed me I had no clue what she was doing” he sounded like he was crying “What, what are you talking about Briana gave Bailey a note from you that said to meet at the beach” “Well I never wrote that” “Uh okay well I promise she will talk to you because I know she can’t live without you” Hailey said starting to calm down “Okay well I can’t live without her either so this better work” “Watever everything works when I do it” Hailey giggled and hung up.
“Lily we have to do something” Hailey said while pacing around the room.
That night I didn’t even change out of my clothes nor did I wake up any.
“Bailey” Hailey said while barging into my room “Get your but up and get dressed sister”. She was wearing a all white juicy couture dress that said “couture” across the chest with a pair of light pink wedges “I don’t want to go to school” I groaned “To bad, you are”. I got up threw on the first pair of shorts I seen and a blue Hollister shirt “Okay I’m ready lets go” Hailey rolled her eyes at me and pulled me down the stiars.
“Bailey, we talked to Noah last night on the phone” Lily said with her eyes wide “And, why do I care?” I said sarcastically “Just saying”. I didn’t talk the whole car ride to school for some reason I couldn’t stop thinking about Noah I tride so hard to get him out of my mind but I just couldn’t
“Hailey I really don’t want to go to school can I please fake sick” I begged “No Bailey you are not faking sick” she yelled while dragging me out the truck. I seen Noah standing at the double doors looking our way he looked amazingly cute I couldn’t take my eyes off of him, until we got to the doors and rememberd I was mad at him. “Hi Hailey” Noah said to her as soon as we walked into the door “Hey Noah” she said still dragging me along. When I walked past him I inhailed deeply I could smell his axe body wash I wish I wasn’t mad at him so I could throw my arms around him, I loved that feeling everyone would look at us and whisper things like “I wish I was her” or “She is so lucky”. I was kind of upset when Noah didn’t even attepmt to talk to me. I had English first so at least I would be with Hailey.
“Hailey” I whispered while we were doing our work, she looked at me “Why didn’t Noah say hi to me when I walked in the door?” “You hate him remember why do you care” she said in a “duh” sort of way I turned back to my work.
When the bell rang I had to go to gym Noah wad not in my class so I got lucky. “Attention please” Mrs. Chandler my gym teacher clapped her hands “We are playing volleyball” she announced I was totally happy whe she said that volleyball was one of the sports I was actually good at.
My team was winning 10 to 7 I was having a great time I had met a new friend her name was Morgan she had black silky hair that came to her shoulders and gorgeous sparkling brown eyes. We were laughing and having a great time till I looked at the door and seen Briana saunter in. “I’m here” she put her hands on her hips and her lips were in a O shaped form with gloss shining off of them “Great” I muttered to Morgan “What you don’t like her?” I stared at her with a blank expression on my face “Are you kidding me, where have you been the last couple weeks, she tried to tear me and Noah apart and it worked” I said sarcastically “OH MY GOD” Morgan shouted and started at me “You’re the girl that Briana hates?” she said with her mouth hanging open “Yeah, what your just now hearing?” “No I heard the first day she seen you at the beach, Briana is one of my best friends” Morgan said staring at me. I was speechless I didn’t have any idea what to say, how could a girl as nice as Morgan be best friends with Briana. “Bailey it’s alright I will still be your friend it dosent really matter to me what Briana says” she smiled “Thanks I thought that you were going to like punch me or something” I giggled.
“service” Briana yelled right before she threw the ball up to over hand serve it. She looked like she was a professional at volleyball the way she moved around the court and encouraged everyone to do better except for me, she threw the ball up and the next thing I knew I was on the ground holding my head.
“Bailey, Bailey” Mrs. Chandler was leaning over me “Are you okay?” I couldn’t fine the words to speak I felt like that I had been hit upside the head with a bat instead of a ball “Bailey” Mrs. Chandler said again “Yeah” I mamaged to say “Morgan will you take her to the nurses office, and hurry” she said frantically. I felt Mrs. Chandler and Morgan pick me up and stand me on my feet “Bailey are you alright” Morgan said as she was walking me to the nurses office “Yeah I think so, but that was totally on purpose” “Yeah I know it was”. When I looked over I seen Noah standing in the hall way looking at me with a concerned look, I was still holding my head and I had blood running down my leg because when I fell I scraped my knee. After glancing at him I quickly look away. “Hi nurse Molly” Morgan said in a sweet voice “Hi Morgan, what happened to your friend” “This is Bailey she uh, had a little miss hap in gym” “Okay come right over here and sit down hunny”. Someone had walked into the nurses office I didn’t get to see who is was because the nurse told me to sit still while she looked at my head “Morgan, I can take it from here” I head a boy’s voice say “Um, okay”. “Okay Bailey I think you will have to stay in here for lunch and for your next class if you would like someone to eat with you that will be fine” “Okay” I smiled. “Just tell me if you need anything” she said as she shut the door of the room I was in.
I laid down and just thought, thought about things like what if I had never agree to go the movies with Noah none of this drama would have ever started.
“Bailey you have a lunch visitor” Nurse Molly said as she opened the door and in walked Noah. There was no way I could get away from him this time. “Hey” he said in a sweet voice I said nothing in just sat there and was staring at the floor, he pulled up a chair right in front of me and sat down. “Please talk to me Bailey” I couldn’t find the courage to talk to him not after what he did. “Bailey please” he said in a quiet voice and his eyes started to water “Okay, there I talked to you” “Yes but please just please let me explain” he begged “Why should I?” I shook my head “Because Bailey you don’t know they truth you don’t know what really happened” “Fine Noah go ahead tell me your excuse” “Okay” he took a deep breath “Briana gave me a note it said from you and to meet at the beach when I got there you weren’t there Briana was I asked her what she was doing she leaned in and kissed me I swear I didn’t kiss her back I mean I didn’t even enjoy it” “Noah wait what are you talking about Briana gave me a note from you saying to meet at the beach” I said confused “Bailey I did not write that”. I sat there for a minute thinking “She set us up” I said in a low voice, Noah just looked at me “Bailey I want you back” he whispered “So bad” “Noah you got me back I forgive you I mean how couldn’t I” I said in a soft voice “But were going to get her back, were going to get her back good” I whispered
There is the full chapter 14(: tell me what you think
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:16 pm
“Oh, this is Jennifer,” I told her. Jennifer raised her hand and smiled back quickly at Nikki. “Well nice to meet you Jennifer,” Nikki said and turned back around to the coffee maker. Jennifer stuck her tongue out at Nikki and readjusted her guitar case.
The microwave beeped and I took out the plate of nuggets. The porcelain was piping hot and the nuggets were steaming. “Mom, Dad, going upstairs! Loveyoubye!” I yelled and ran up to my room. Jennifer speed walked after me.
I put the plate down on my desk and sucked on my fingers. Jennifer put her guitar case down on my bed and opened it. I turned around, with a nugget hanging out of my mouth, and padded over to her.
“I thought we were working on handwriting?” I swallowed the nugget. “We are,” Jennifer said and took out a beautiful polished acoustic guitar. “But I need to warm up. Care to join me?” I bit my lip and nodded, then got out my heart acoustic guitar. “Uh…sure.”
Jennifer smiled like she was the queen of the world. “Ok, let’s switch off songs,” she said and started plucking the strings. It was the most beautiful playing I have ever heard. It was so light, yet so heavy at the same time. It was happy and melancholy. It was…so like me.
It was fun (like me) yet so boring (like me). It was like Jennifer was reading me. She stopped playing and waited for me to pick up where she left off. “Did you write that?” I asked quietly. “Nope,” she said. “I just made it up.” How ironic.
I started to play a song I already wrote. It sounded terrible and screechy. I immediately stopped. Jennifer put her guitar back in the case.
“How about I help you with guitar and you help me with my handwriting?” she offered. I nodded. “Great. Let’s get to work then.”
Three
The next day I went straight to my locker. Jennifer was there already, holding her guitar case and shoving books into her bag.
“That was fun last night,” she said. “I did give you my phone number, right?” I nodded at her and started cramming random materials into my bag. Jennifer shut my locker door when I was finished and we hurried off to find Jason.
“Are you ok?” Jennifer asked me. What I wanted to say was, no. I’m not ok. I only have two friends, I have a crush that doesn’t like me back. All of my many two friends are the weirdest people ever. My parents don’t even know I’m alive. I hate my life. I’m not doing well in school. But I couldn’t say that. It would sound like I was whining too much. She would leave me hanging in the hallway.
So instead, I stared at her with tired eyes.
“C’mon. Jason will cheer you up,” Jennifer said, grabbed my hand, and pulled me along. “What do you mean by that?” Ok. Maybe I now only have a whole great 1 friend. And that’s Dolly.
“Ambs, I’ve seen the way you look at him.” I could feel my cheeks redden. “So?” I asked. “So…if I can’t cheer you up, he can.” Jennifer winked and led me across the halls with her frozen white body.
“Jason!!” Jennifer yelled from almost fifteen feet away from Jason, Christina, and Oliver. Christina was clutching a locker door, and it looked like it was…breaking. Once they realized we were standing there, Christina let go of the locker door. It was crumpled and deformed.
“Kristi,” Oliver slapped the Gothic girl’s hand away from the locker. He pointed to me. I smiled and waved. Jennifer’s mouth swung open like she didn’t know what was going on, but her eyes were fiery and flaming what seemed to be rage. Christina daringly looked straight into them with sad, yet angry eyes. Jennifer was the first to look away.
“Hello Amber,” Jason said and stroked my hair. That was odd. He only just met me and he was already touching me like I was his pet bird. I hated birds.
“Err…hi I guess,” I said and took a step back. Jason’s hand fell to his side as I did. It’s like he was tracing my every move.
“What were you guys talking about?” Jennifer asked, he eyes darting back and forth from Oliver to Christina to Jason, then back again. Oliver starting messing around in his jacket pockets and Christina twirled some of her earrings. Jason was the only one that didn’t look nervous out of all five of us.
“Amber, do you like to read?” Jason asked me, completely ignoring his sister. “Uh…yeah I guess,” I said. “Reading is…good.” “Fantastic,” Jason smiled. He grabbed a sac, handed it to Christina, and took me by the hand.
“Wha…wha….where are we going?” I asked him, terrified. “To the library,” he simply answered. Even though he was dragging me behind him, I could see him smile in my mind. It was the most gorgeous smile I’ve ever seen.
“Why?” I wanted so badly to pull away from him, but I couldn’t. I felt awake and alert when I was with him. I felt like I could soar up in the sky and skip school to pick daffodils in the meadow. That’s the complete opposite of what I am though. He changes me into a better person.
“Because you need to read,” he chuckled at his own rhyme. I rolled my eyes and followed him into the library anyway, partly by will and partly because I didn’t want to leave him alone.
“I have the perfect poem for you.” He grabbed a book labeled Tangled in a Rose Bush in gold cursive. I looked at him lovingly as he flipped through the thick, dirty pages, determined to find the poem he wanted. He finally stopped flipping the pages and stopped at the thickest page of them all. It looked like it was made out of stone.
“Read it,” he ordered. I gently took the book from his hands and looked at the page. It has a beige tint and had spills of ink all over it. It was labeled A Life by Sylvia Plath.
It was a dark poem. It told the story about a girl who lived alone with nothing but anger and hopelessness. The last two lines of the seventh verse echoed in my head: Grief and anger, exorcised,
Leave her alone now.
“Why did you show me this?” I asked and handed the book back to him. He grabbed it at the golden hem and shut it gingerly. “Because this poem reminds me of you.” The words slid out of his mouth. Like a snake. Like a venomous snake. It bit me hard and made me hurt. He thought of me as an angry monstrous woman!
“It reminds me of you because you always misunderstand things. You jump to conclusions,” he said velvety. Even though he sounded amazing and fantastic right now, the snake was still there. Only it bit me less this time. It’s fangs didn’t sink in that much.
“Let go of everything in your mind,” he said. “Please don’t think of me as a…dragon.” I laughed softly. Jason put down the book and walked behind me.

April 2nd, 2009 at 5:20 pm
ok so im going 2 post my story the 1st chapter anyway hope u like it
Chapter1
They can’t be serious! Ugh! I can’t believe my parents are making me go to that stupid “ball” fundraiser. I hated it when I was 10 and I still hate it seven years later. The “ball” is so boring. I don’t care my mom still belongs to the stupid society in New York in case my parents haven’t notice we don’t live in New York anymore we live in Oregon. Why do I have to go? My grandma is probably going to buy me a thousand dollar dress I’ll never wear again. You may be wondering why I hate this ball well because it is so archaic. I mean they make us dress like they did back in the 18th Century. How lame is that. The whole thing is like a ball from the 18th century. When I was little I thought they were fun but now they just boring.
“ Abigale Bethany Trentwell” I hear my mom yell furiously from downstairs “ Your father and I were not done talking to you so come downstairs right now” Well mother I don’t want to talk to you I say to myself. I decide to climb out my bedroom window,and down the trellis I to walk to the empty house down the street. This house has been empty for forever so whenever I need to think I come here. I walk through the front door and up the winding old staircase. I’ve never noticed but this place smells like stale nasty raisin bran. Yuck! At the top of the stairs I head for my favorite room which I like because it’s always sunny and you have a view of this little pond in the backyard. I sit down on the floor and pull out my iPod and crack the volume up. This must have been a gorgeous house but now it’s all crappy and worn down. It could look good with a new coat of paint and some other changes.
“Um excuse me” I hear a voice say to me. I quickly stand up from my criss cross apple sauce position and spin around to see where the voice came from but I spin too fast and almost fall but suddenly my elbows are caught by two strong hands. When look up I see a guy in jeans and a worn out concert tee. He has long shaggy black hair and grayish greenish eyes.
“I’m sorry I didn’t mean to scare you” he says with a sincere tone
“ You didn’t scare me” I inform him
“ Really you won’t scared” he says with a hint of laughter in in his voice and a smirk on his face “ Because you look startled to me”
“ I was not” I exclaim. How rude of him to think that. Okay maybe I was startled but still it’s not nice to assume. You know what people say when you assume it makes an ass out of you. I started to exit the room when he says:
“I’m sorry I was rude and I made you cry” What cry? I lift my hand to my face and find it wet I must have been crying because I was so angry at my parents “can you find it in your heart to forgive” he says sounding so cheesy. It’s so cheesy I start laughing
“ I forgive you and you didn’t make me cry” I say still laughing
“ I’m glad you forgive me. Why were you crying? If you don’t mind me asking” he says so politely
“ I was crying because my parents are being stupid and making me go to this dumb fundraiser” I inform him
“Oh that makes sense, I guess” he says sounding confused. The room stays quiet for a couple of minutes. I then decide to speak and say:
“ What are you doing here in this house I mean” I say “I thought it was abadenned”
“ I just moved here” he says
“Oh thats cool, where from?” I ask
“New York” he says sounding as if he misses it
“ I’m from New York, well I don’t live there anymore obviously or else I wouldn’t be here right now.I moved here seven years.So New York is my hometown ” i say feeling like a complete idiot
“Cool” he says sounding bored of me. Ugh I just made a complete fool of myself. I slip my iPod into my pocket of my overalls.OVERALLS! I look down and notice I look like really bad. I wearing my ugly overalls that have a bunch of holes, a paint splattered tank, my hair looks like a friggin bird’s nest and I have no shoes. How in the helll did I leave without shoes.He must have notice the look on my face because he starts laughing. After he stops laughing the room is filled with an awkward turtle silence.
“oh shoot” I mutter. Oops that was supposed to remain in my head
“What?” He asks. Dang he’s got good hearing
“Well its just that people say when there’s a silence that means a gay-” i begin to say but he cuts me off
“ a gay baby is born.” he finishes “ Yeah I’ve heard that one too” A couple more minutes go by with either of us talking so I say:
“Well I’m sorry to disturb your moving I’ll be going”
“ I’m sorry for disrupting your“alone” time” he says with a hint a laughter in his voice
“See you around” I vocalized. As I went to exit the room I stepped left to avoid running into him but he stepped right to let me pass and then I stepped right and he took a step to the left.
“How we both go right” he utters. I then take a step left and finally make it to the door. As i leave the room i hear him say “Have fun at your fundraiser”. As I walk home I can’t stop thinking about him he was so kind and witty. Oh my gosh what was his name anyway? I’ll probably see him at school considering there’s only one school in within 50 miles unless he gets home schooled which i doubt. I arrive at my house and I walk in the front door. Holey Guacamole ! I forgot my parents don’t know I left. Well so much for secretly sneaking out
“ Abi, why did you come in the through the front door?” My dad inquires
“ and I want the truth”
“Well Daddy, you see my phone fell out my window so I climbed down the trellis to get it but was to lazy to climb back up” I say in my sincerest tone
“Use the front door next time I don’t want you climbing the trellis its not safe” he informs me
“Yes Daddy” I reply with a super cheesy smile on my face
“ Abigal come in the kitchen we need to talk” I hear my mother call out from the kitchen
When I get to the kitchen I see my mom smiling while mixing ingredients in a bowl.
“ Can you hand me the basil darling” she asks. I walk over to her spice cabinet and look under B is a neat freak and has everything in the kitchen super organized. I hand her the basil and ask:
“ What are you making?”
“ Your favorite pizza. Now go upstairs and wash up?” she says
“Okay” I say and run upstairs and go into the bathroom and begin to wash my hands.while washing I wonder if my mom is bipolar because she was super angry now she’s making my favorite dinner. I GET! My mom’s not bipolar she just trying to butter me up so I won’t be so mad about the “ball”.Ugh! Now I’m only madder.

heres my 2nd chapter
Chapter 2
It’s two week before the ball and I’ve decide to be glad about the “ ball” cosidering it’s my one chance to see all my old friends. Which I hope still remember me. Even though it’s two week away we’re leaving tonight so we can have enough time to find me a dress. I’m still kinda sad because the Mystery Guy from a weeks ago wasn’t at school one single day. I haven’t told anyone one about him or else my friends won’t stop bugging me. As I walk to school I decide to take a detour and see if there’s anyone at the house. As i walk by I notice all the lights off and no cars in the driveway its empty. Maybe they moved because the house was too shitty. I’ll go in and see if there’s furniture and then I’ll be on my way. I check to see if i have time and I almost jump when I notice it 7:47. Shoot! I have thirteen minutes to get to school. I decide not to go in and sprint toward school. I arrive at my locker at 7:54. I quickly spin my combo on my locker and my pull my lock down but it doesn’t unlock. Ugh! Today of all day’s my lock decides to be retarded and not work.UGH!!!!! I keep spinning my combo but it won’t unlock. I’m going to be late it’s 7:57 and I see the hallways starting to empty.
“Do you need help?” I hear a voice say I’m almost sure it’s my best friend Felicity but I turn to check and it is.
“Sure thanks” I say. She turns my combo and it opens “How did you do that I’ve been trying but it won’t open?”
“All I did was put your combo now hurry up or you’ll be late.” She states. I grab my things, slam my locker and sprint to homeroom, I stop in front of the classroom door and walk in, or else I’ll get a detention for running, and power walk to my seat. Three seconds after I sit down the bell rings.Phew! That was close. After class Felicity comes up to me and says:
“You did it again huh?”
“What are you talking about” I inquire
“You used your old combo 18-32-02 instead of your new one 18-30-4” She says
“ Ugh! I did well. I’m glad you remebered and helped me your my lifesaver” i say in my cheesiest voice. We both started to laugh. Felicity is my best friend ever we could be twins if she didn’t have blonde hair and I have brown,and she was fair skin and I was darker, and the fact that I’m 5’3 and she’s 5’6 . My day flies by really fast and before I know it’s the end of sixth and it’s time to go home. Today Felicity decides to walk home with me. The walk is quite for most of the way which is surprising for us because its impossible for us to shut up. Then at the exact same time we both start cracking up because of the silence.
“Next week do you wanna go to the movies and see that new movie?” Felicity asks.
“ Sorry can’t I’m not going to be here or the next week either” I respond
“What! Where are you going?” She inquires
“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner but remember that stupid ‘ball’” She nods “ well i have to go to it and it’s in New York and I really don’t want to but I have”
“Ugh!” well that sucks” she says
“You wanna help me pack?” I ask “ It will give us more time together”
“Sure” she says.
At my house we rush up to my room and start packing so if we finish early we can hang out.
“ What time does your flight leave” Felicity asks
“Ten thirty and I have to be at the airport by eight thirty.” I respond
“ How much more clothes to you need to pack?” she inquires
“I think we’re done” I say
“Yay!” she says“ What do you want to do Abi?”
“Like Idk what do you wanna do?” I say using a valley girl tone and twirling my hair. This causes Felicity to start giggling funny so then I start cracking up because her giggle is so hilarious.We stay laughing for about 5 minutes then my mom calls from downsatirs:
“ Girls, can you come down here for a sec”
“Coming Mom” I yell back not in a mean just loud so she can hear me. Felicity and I walk downstairs and into the living room where my mom is reading a magazine
“Yea Mom you called” I say
“ Do you girls wanna grab something to eat before we have to leave” my mom asks
“Sure” Felicity and I say at the exact same time
“Felicity” my mom begins “what time to your parents expect you home?”
“I’m not sure. Can I borrow your phone to call?” She say
“Of course you know where it is” my mom says “ Abigale do you have everything packed?”
“ Yes mom everything is ready I even double checked” I vocalize
“Load your luggage into the car” my mom mandates
“Okay” I reply. I run up to my room grab my luggage and head downstairs. Oops I almost forgot my iPod so I run back upstairs and go to my desk to get it. It’s not here where could it be? I always put it here.Okay let me retrace my steps. I took it with me to the house. I put into my left ocket of my overalls.Oh no! I put it in the left pocket which had a hole so it probably fell out at the house. Great now I have to go a six hour flight without my iPod. This sucks. I amble my way downstairs and to the car sad.
“What’s the matter” Felicity asks
“ I lost my iPod” I say miserably
“ You’ll find it” she says sounding confident
“ No I won’t I left it at a place I went and someone probably stole it and now I have to go a six hour flight without music and you know what music means to me” I say still sounding depressed
“I’m sorry how about you borrow mine” she says sounding pleasant
“ I couldn’t do that” I say
“ You have to or else you’ll be depressed and when your depressed I’m depressed so take it and I won’t take no for an answer” she demands
“Fine” I say “ so when are your parents coming to pick you up?
“ In a couple of minute” she says nonchalantly
“What!?” I shrieked
“Relax, they are coming because all of us are going to dinner then we’re taking you guys to the airport.
‘ she informs me
“Oh thats better” I reply. Felicity’s parents and we go out to eat at a barbeque place. At dinner Felicity and I decide to sit away from our parents. While waiting for our food to come Felicity asks:
“Where exactly did you leave you iPod?” I decide to tell her everything about the guy and how I lost my iPod. After I’m done explaining she asks:
“So what’s the guy’s name?”
“ I don’t know I didn’t ask” I respond Our food finally gets here and we grow silent as we chow down on ribs. After dinner Felicity and her parents take us to the airport. Damn the airport is crowed.Felicity’s parents decide to drop us off so we can check while they search for parking.After checking in we decide to go grab dessert at the coffee shop nearby .
“Ugh I’m gonna miss you so much twin” she whines “who is supposed to help me in spanish”
“You’ll live and besides if you really need help you can call me” I tell her
“Ok I guess that will work” she says
“ Oh can you do me a favor?” I ask her
“ I already let you my iPod” she says but I know she’s joking but I’ll be the great friend that I am and act hurt
“Fine” I say with a chocked up voice
“ I’m just joking” she informs me
“ And so am I’ I say
“Okay so what’s your favor” Felicity asks
“ If ‘guy’” thats what we nicknamed mystery guy “shows up at school you have to call me” I mandate
“Okay whats he look like again” Felicity questions
“ You’ll know it’s him because he’ll be new”I say
“ Just tell me what he looks like” she says sounding impatient
“ Well he’s hot-” I begin but get cut off
“ No duh” felicity says. I look at her with a are-you-going-to-let-me-finish look. she returns a sorry look
“ He has long shaggy black hair, greenish grayish eyes, is about 5’10 to 6’0 and somewhat muscular not gross muscular but healthy muscular”
“Got it” she says
“ Time to board Abi” my dad says
“ Ok” I turn to Felicity and say “I’ll miss you” And hug her.
She returns the hug and says “Me too” We stay hugging for awhile but get ripped apart by our parents. As I walk toward the gate I keep glancing at Felicity and smiling. On the plane I sit next to the window all I have is a book and Felicity’s iPod. I turn on the iPod and open my book and begin to read even though it’s six hours till we get there. Unlike most people I don’t sleep on planes do to the fact that I find it extremely uncomfortable to sleep on planes. We take off and I start to feel sleepy which is unusual so I put my book away and crack up the volume on Felicity’s iPod some more and drift away into a tranquil sleep

Chapter 1:
“Finally, why does it take that bell so long to ring? I love school and everything, but Biology should not be our last hour class” I told Cara, Sabrina, and Terry.
“Agreed; Dana, can your mom give me a ride home? My mom is gonna be at work late, and I really don’t want to stay behind, especially on a Friday.” Terry told me. Her small, brown eyes were filled with a kind of sadness, but that didn’t surprise me. Terry was the kind of person who was just constantly sad. Anything made her cry, but I didn’t care. I loved Terry because even when nothing was wrong, she understood my sadness. Her straight brown hair touched the middle of her back, and she looked exceptionally snug in her new white Abercrombie hoodie. Her dark wash jeans, and her white Skechers looked as adorable as ever. But Terry didn’t fool us. We all knew that she was just being lazy.
“Sure,” I told her. ”Hey, why don’t you guys just all come over?” I asked them.
“No can do, Dana. I have to go to my dad’s at five o’ clock, and I still didn’t even pack,” Cara said. Unlike Terry, Cara’s blue eyes were always bright, and were always kind of dancing with joy. She had naturally curly, long black hair that always smelled of Herbal Essences shampoo. Also, unlike Terry, Cara liked to dress a little cuter. Cara was wearing a light pink knee-length baby doll dress, and light grey leggings underneath. Sliver ballet flats made her feet look cuter than ever. And a Silver sequined purse made the short sleeves on her baby doll look adorable. Unfortunately, Cara’s parents had recently gone through a divorce. It upset her, but she got over it pretty fast. I think we had an effect on her. We helped her out a lot.
“I’ll go. You guys know I’m always up for a little get together,” Sabrina told us as she pushed her body against the metal door handle. A thick gust of wind made us all shiver. Sabrina instantly zipped up her coat. Her outfits always made me look over mine. Sabrina always dressed as adorable as the mannequins in Limited Too, Abercrombie, Hollister, and any other store you could possibly think of. She was always looking for inspiration. The truth was that I always secretly tried to compete with Sabrina. Today, she was showing off a red and black kimono dress over a pair of her new dark wash jeans. A pair of black ballet flats made the look even cuter than it already was. To top it all off, Sabrina had the new G by Guess black bag, and I couldn’t help envy it. The way her blond-brown hair was always so straight didn’t help out either; neither did her bright brown eyes.
In case you’re wondering (which you probably are) I was showing off an adorable brown, puffy short-sleeved Abercrombie vest, with a long sleeved brown shirt underneath, and I had on a pair of dark-wash jeans that were tucked into beige ugg boots. Out of a ten, I was a nine point four. Sabrina could have easily been a nine point eight. “So Cara, will you come?” I gave my best (and fakest) puppy dog look.
“Please, you’re so full of it,” said Cara. It was beyond creepy how well she knew me.
“Come on Cara, it’ll be fun,” Terry said.
“Oh-kayy, but I’m not staying long. I swear, just an hour. I have to get back. I’m staying at my dad’s for a week, and who knows how long it’ll take me to pack. My room is a total mess.” Cara complained.
“Yay!” I cheered. “You guys call your moms and tell them that you’re coming over. I don’t want what happened last time to happen again.” We all remembered the time when we were all going to Terry’s house. We hadn’t considered calling our parents. Little did we know that there was an angry traffic of carpooling parents just outside the school. Our parents weren’t aware our cell phones were on silent. We got about 17 missed calls. Each! But could you blame us?
“Ugh, I hate when my mom takes forever,” I told my friends while taking a glance at my watch, but right at that very moment, a black Envoy pulled up, indicating that my mother had gotten here.
“Hey mom!” I said with a smile as I pulled open the car door, rushing in to the warm heat.
“Wow, were taking everybody today?” she chuckled.
“Yup” I said. I slipped into the front seat, and took out a CD case from my purse. I pushed it in, and the Plain White Tee’s “Our Time Now” blasted from the speakers. I looked to the back and giggled. Terry, Sabrina, and Cara were all singing at the top of their lungs, and moving their hips despite the fact that their seatbelts were buckled on tight. I turned to the front, and sang along.
My mom turned down the stereo just as we were pulling up at a stop light. “So, girls, how was school?”
“Uh, same as always.” replied Cara. “We woke up against our will, learned useless stuff, ate lunch, learned some more useless stuff, and here we are!” We all laughed, and even my mom let out a tiny chuckle.
“Ugh, can you guys believe its only November? I like hate this weather.” I groaned, as I thumped my head against the head rest of the car seat.
“I kind of like it. It gives us a good reason to layer tank tops and sweaters.” Sabrina commented.
“True” we all mumbled just as my mom was pulling into the driveway.
My house was no mansion, but it was home. We all piled out, and raced inside, to wait for our cheeks to warm up. I pulled my heavy coat off, and hung it up in the closet, while the rest of the girls just threw theirs over their shoulders.
“C’mon, lets go to my room” I told them, and they instantly lined up behind me while going up the stairs. Once we got to my room, I took a deep breath and let it out slowly. My room was my favorite place in the whole world, no questions asked. Ever since last July, when my mom let me choose how I wanted to remodel my room, I knew I had made the right decision. My walls were painted light purple, and my queen sized bed was positioned in front of my window, that faced my entire neighborhood. My comforters were white, with purple stitched flowers sewn onto it. Two purple beanbags sat at the far corner of the room, and my walking closet doors, which were painted dark purple, stood right beside them.
My friends made their way to the beanbags, and made themselves comfortable.
“Ooh, when did you get that?” Terry asked, pointing to the purple sign that my dad had made the other day for me. It had DANA written across in white paint, and had flowers coming out of it like stems.
“Uh, last week. But that’s not important right now.” I told my friends, as I took a seat on the floor, since there was obviously no room on the beanbags Terry, Sabrina and Cara had already occupied.
“I know that look!” Sabrina said excitedly. “You have an idea, don’t you?”
“C’mon spill!” Cara told me as she leaned in to hear what I wanted to say.
“Okay”, I said, not wasting another minute. “Well, the thing is, I think I should- bum bum be dum, bum bum be dum bum my phone rang the tune of Rhiannas Disturbia. The display said LOGAN. My brother usually never called me during his basketball practice unless it was important.
“Hello?” I answered, waving a finger at my friends, indicating I’d just be a moment.
“Hey, Dana, uh can you do me a favor?” he asked.
“Yeah? What is it?” I asked, hoping it wouldn’t be anything that would take long.
“Next time you wanna tell your friends something, make sure your door is closed!”
“Logan!” I called out; I stomped to the frame of my door, and was about to slam it shut, when he stopped me half way, and I came face to face with my older brother “Hey, sis.” He chuckled to himself.
“Why are you here?” I asked, showing how annoyed I was.
“Uh, I kind of live here, stupid” he shot at me, and my friends giggled.
“Oh, I see you have guests.” He smiled shyly, and looked at Sabrina. She returned his gesture with a grin, but I just looked from him to her, and refused to let it get me worried.
“I mean,” I huffed, “why aren’t you at basketball practice?”
“It was cancelled.” He told me. His brown eyes made their way over to Sabrina again, and he shook his head to wave his light brown bangs away from his eyes. He looked like his usual self, wearing jeans, and a light blue t-shirt, and a Hollister hoodie over. I looked him up and down, then back up again, and decided he looked alright for him.
“Can you leave now? Or is there anyone else you’re here to look at?” I shot him an annoyed look, and he blushed.
“No, but I just love annoying you, it’s my job.” He rested his hand on my shoulder, but I shrugged it off.
“Leave!” I shouted, and then slammed the door in his face. I heard his heavy stomps make their way back to his room across from mine, and when I heard his stereo playing angry rock songs, I realized it was safe to get back to what I was talking about.
“What were you saying?” Terry asked, sounding annoyed.
“Oh yeah. I think I should have a party sometime soon.” I said, looking at my friends’ faces to see their reactions.
“Oh my god! What a good idea!” they squealed.
I smiled, rewarding myself for coming up with such a brilliant idea.
“That’s not it.” I said, looking at their excited faces. “Since Logan is only a year older then me, I was thinking I could talk to him, and have him bring HIS friends, so we’ll be like co-hosts.”
“Yes!” Sabrina screamed, louder then she needed to. I gave her a stern look, and she returned it with a wide smile, unaware of what I really had a problem with.
“Uh, Sabrina?” I said, but just then, Cara’s ringtone went off, and she told us to be quiet.
“Yeah mom? Kay. Kay. Can you take Terry too? Thanks. I’ll be down in a minute. Bye. I have to go, you guys.” Cara said, as she stood.
“Terry too?” I asked
“Yeah, I should go.”
“Kay, text me later.” I told them.
“Bye”, they both called as they were leaving.
My room became strangely quiet, and I looked at Sabrina, and we both burst out laughing.
When we calmed down, I looked straight into her eyes, and said “Do you like, like my brother or something?”
She blushed, and said “Why? Is it a bad thing?”
“Um, no, but I thought you would’ve told me.” I said
“I was gonna, but-“
“But what? You thought I’d have a problem with it because he’s my brother?”
“Yeah.” She admitted.
“Well, I could like talk to him if you want me to.”
“Really?” Her entire face lit up.
“Yeah. Totally. I know how to play it smart with him. He won’t even know-“
When I grow up, I wanna be famous, I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies. Sabrinas phone rang the catchy tune of When I Grow Up by The Pussycat Dolls.
“One sec.” she told me.
While she answered, I pondered over what I was going to tell Logan. Should I play it cool, or jump at it?
“That was my mom. She said I have to go. But tell me how it goes with Logan, kay?”
“Kay, bye.” I told her. I heard her make her way down the stairs and out the door, and decided it was now or never. I wished I could pick never, because, come on! How were you supposed to tell your brother that your best friend had a crush on him?

April 2nd, 2009 at 5:50 pm
thanks guys.. okay heres chapter 2
Chapter 2:
I walked out of my room, and knocked on Logans door, ignoring the 2 BUSY 4 U sign, and I knocked loudly, might I add, in case his guitar drowned out the sound. He answered quickly and said “Didn’t you read the sign?”
“Yeah, but this is important.”
“What’s wrong?” He asked.
“Uhh” I decided I’d ask him about the party before I asked him about Sabrina. “So, I was thinking, and I think me and you should have a party. Together. Like as co-hosts. If you think it’s stupid, that’s totally ok, but-
“Stupid? That’s a great idea! Seriously. It would be awesome!”
“Yeah, and if we play our cards right, mom and dad will say yeah.”
“We’ll tell them after dinner, when dad’s working on his Sudoku puzzles, and mom is knitting. They’re most happy then.” He stated.
“Oh my god, you’re right. Well, thanks.” I was about to leave, but Sabrina’s face popped up in my head, and I decided I would have to ask right now, before it was too late. “Um, I forgot something. I’m thinking you’ll want a date to this party.” I told him, looking around his weirdly clean room so I wouldn’t have to look at him.
“Yeah. I guess.” He stammered.
“What do you think of Sabrina?” I asked, hoping, preying he would give me a straight answer.
“What do you mean?” He asked.
“Well, she’s kind of into you, but was too shy to say so herself, so she asked me to ask you if you were into her.” I said, hating myself for selling out my best friend.
“Oh my god” He looked at me with wide eyes. “She likes me back?”
“What do you mean ‘back’?”
“Uh, hasn’t it been kind of obvious I’ve liked her?” He asked.
“Um, wow, I mean, wow. Um, well she’s like really into you.” I stammered, thanking god that he came out that easily. “Here, take down her number, and call her. She’ll be happy to hear from you.” I smiled; happy I had finished my task so easily. I gave him her number, and opened his door so I could leave.
“Wait!” he called. I turned around, and gave him a confused look. “What. Um. Like. Uh. What. Am. I. Uh. S-s-supposed” He stuttered.
“What?”
“Ugh! What am I supposed to say?! To Sabrina!” He blushed, and looked away.
“Uh, I don’t know,” I said, trying to hide the smile that was fighting its way onto my face. “Just tell her you’re really into her, and that you want her to be your date to the party.” I could tell he was thinking it over, because his eyes were locked onto mine, and he had a serious look on his face. One that made me laugh. Hard.
“Ugh, I hate it when you don’t take me seriously!” he told me angrily.
“Okay, fine, well, all you have to do is just play it-
“LOGAN, DANA, DINNERS READY!” My mom called.
“I guess it’ll have to wait till later,” he said, as he dropped his phone on his bed. I put mine there too, because we both knew my dad had a strict No Phone’s at the Dinner Table rule, and we didn’t want to upset him. Especially on a night that was so important. As we were making our way downstairs, I asked Logan “Don’t mess this up, ok?”
“Kay” he chuckled.
“Hey daddy!” I said as I hugged my father. “How was work?” I added a smile, because Operation Suck Up was coming along beautifully.
“Hey, dad” Logan added, giving my father’s back a hard smack.
“Hey, kids,” my dad chuckled, indicating that he was in a good mood. I caught Logan’s eye, and we both nodded out of satisfaction to each other. I lowered myself onto the dining room chair, and watched as my mom put a piece of lasagna on my plate. I instantly took a bite, and smiled, showing my mom how satisfied I was with her dinner. I looked across from me and noticed Logan smiling as well. We were doing fine. There was no way they could say no to the party. Right?
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:51 pm
LOVE IT! sorry it took me 4ever im trying 2 do hw at the same time
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:53 pm
THANKS samantha.. okay heres chapter 3:
Chapter 3:
My mom, dad, Logan, and I were all sitting in the living room. It was quiet. I looked at Logan, and once he finally caught my eye, he nodded, and mouthed “Go on” I returned his gesture with a smile and a nod, and my eyes made their way over to my mother.
“So, mom” I said, taking a deep breath. “Uh, Logan and I wanna ask you something”
“Yes, what is it?” she asked, never taking her eyes off her knitting needles.
Logan waved his hands, gesturing me to keep going. I rolled my eyes at him, annoyed that he wasn’t helping me out.
“We were kind of talking, and we thought it would be cool if we could have a party. Together. Like as co-hosts.”
My dad instantly put down his Sudoku book, and gave my mother a worried look.
“And” added Logan “we promise to clean up the whole basement later. We wont make too much noise with the stereo, and well have it in the basement, so you don’t have to worry about the furniture.” He said quickly.
“You want to both invite your friends? Together? In the same house? my dad asked skeptically.
“Is that a bad thing?” Logan asked, his eyes filled with confusion.
“Wasn’t your birthday party in September enough?” My dad asked me. I knew I heard a small hint of a whine in his voice, but decided that now wasn’t the best time to point it out.
“We’ll think about it” my mother told us.
“C’mon mom. I know what you’re gonna do. You’re going to say you’re going to think about it, then forget about it, then like two years later, you’ll remember and thank god you didn’t say yes. Please? I really wanna do this. Please, please, please?!” I whined.
“It’s ok with me if it’s ok with your mother.” My dad said with a smile on his face.
“Alright, but there is going to be adult supervision.” My mother added.
“Yes! Yes! Yes! Thanks so much, thanks like a million times!” I got up and hugged both my parents, and watched as Logan said thanks and made his way up to his room. I quickly followed him, making sure he didn’t slam the door before I got in. I picked up my phone, which was still on his bed and noticed I had 4 new messages. While I was reading Terry’s question about if pink and brown would look cute together for her outfit, I noticed Logan fumbling with his phone.
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
“Nothing.” He answered, while pressing multiple buttons on his phone. “Ugh, I’m gonna call Sabrina.”
“Ok!” I said excitedly, hoping he wouldn’t ask me to leave. He didn’t, which was a good thing.
“Uh, Sabrina?” Logan said to his phone once she picked up. “Hey, it’s Logan. Ya, so I wanted to talk to you about-. Ugh, one sec. Leave!” he told me angrily.
“Ok, fine.” I huffed and stomped out of his room. I went into my room and started up my computer, and wondered what Logan and Sabrina might be talking about. I signed onto my AIM, and saw that Terry, Cara, and Sabrina were all online. Usually, I would instantly start a group chat, but I IM’ed Sabrina first.
DPrincez24: soo…. Whatcha guys talking bout?

DPrincez24: definitely.
“Dana! Open up!” Logan called, while knocking on my door.
“Come in!” I said loudly.
DPrincez24: ttyl
Abercrombiecrzy18: byee
I immediately signed off and turned off my computer. I turned around in my chair, and faced Logan. “So, what’s up?” I asked.
“Uh, I asked Sabrina” he said, with a sparkle in his eyes I had never seen before.
“And…..” I asked, raising my eyebrows.
“Oh, you!” he said, and in one swift movement he picked me up out of my chair with power I didn’t even know he had, and threw me on my bed. Then, he started tickling my ribs, and I couldn’t stop laughing.
Finally, I gained enough control to scream “LOGAN!” and he finally stopped and dropped himself onto my computer chair.
“What was that all about?” I asked, finger-combing my hair.
“Me and Sabrina. We’re like together! Oh my god! I’ve never been happier!” Logan said like a giddy schoolgirl.
“Oh! Really? Well, I’m, like happy for you. Really. I am.” I said with an uncertainty I didn’t even know of.
“Cool.” Logan said, gaining control. “So, I was thinking. How many people are you going to invite. Since it is next Saturday, I thought we should start planning from now.”
“Yeah, I was thinking we could each invite 25 people.” I told him.
“Man, our basement is gonna be so packed.” He said.
“I know, but it’ll all be worth it, you know.” I said.
“Yeah, so start on your list.” He said.
“Ok, but listen, I don’t wanna-“
I was suddenly interrupted by Logan’s ringing cell phone. He pointed at it, and shrugged.
“Hey, man” he answered. “Ok, the back door is open, come upstairs. Yup. Bye.”
He shut his cell phone, and looked at me with a smile on his face, obviously still hyped up about the whole Sabrina thing.
“Who was that?” I asked.
“Tim. He’s sleepin over.” He said.
“Uh, who’s Tim?”
“Oh, he’s new, and we’ve become really tight. I told him he could come chill, play some video games and stuff.”
“Oh. Well, you’d better-”
“Logan?!” I heard an unfamiliar voice call out.
“In here, dude.” Logan called out.
“Oh, hey” He came into my doorway, and I felt like the back of my stomach had just made a 360 degree flip. Tim had really tan skin, and bright blue eyes that sparkled. His lips were light pink, and he had a Zac Efron High School Musical 2 cut. But his was dark brown, and his bangs were a little longer. Tim was wearing dark wash jeans, a light blue Hollister t-shirt, and a tight long sleeved white shirt underneath, which went good with his toned abs and upper arms. He was perfect! His eyes immediately met mine, and I felt a connection.
“Hey.” He said in a deep voice. “Are you Logan’s sister?”
“Yeah. I’m Dana.” I said with a wide smile on my face. I got off my bed and made my way over to him. I couldn’t believe that I even had the courage to take steps because my feet were overcome with a numbness I couldn’t understand. I shook his hand, and felt electrical sparks shoot through my fingers. We finally let go, and he smiled at me, showing his white as tic-tacs teeth.
“Uh, dude, you comin’” Logan said impatiently.
“Yeah,” he said not taking his eyes off of me. “So, Dana, Logan told me about the party you guys are throwing.”
“Yeah, it was like all my idea” I said, trying not to brag.
“Logan! You told me that you came up with the idea.” Tim turned and his eyes met Logans. Right when he looked away, I quickly tried to straighten my hair with my palm, but it pulled my hair down in an uncomfortable way because of how much sweat was forming on my hand. He turned back, and continued smiling at me.
“Uh, you comin, or what?”
“Yeah, you go set up the PS3, I’ll be right there.”
I tilted my head, and gave Logan a look that said get the hell outta here.
“Ok, whatever.” Logan said and went across to his room. As soon as Logan left, Tim turned, and smiled.
“So, I’m guessing you have a date to your party,” He said with a shy smile.
“No, sadly, I don’t.” I said, trying to make as much eye contact. But Tim’s piercing blue eyes made it hard to look at him for more than two seconds and not go blind.
“Well, I know we just met, but I was thinking maybe you could be my date. You know. To the party?” He asked
I felt as if someone had replaced all of my cells with Diet Coke bubbles. My insides leaped with joy, but my outsides just smiled, and said “Of course.”
“Cool,” he said, smiling. “I guess I’ll see you here.” He smiled one last time, then made his way out of my room, and into Logan’s room. When I made sure that Logan’s door was shut, I shut mine, and climbed up onto my bed. I started jumping up and down, something I’ve hardly ever done before. I got down, and quickly grabbed my diary. Then I jumped off of my bed, and made my way to my walk-in closet. I quickly grabbed my Aeropostale Jean Jacket, and dug my fingers into the left pocket. Inside was a little key. I grabbed the key, and went back to my bed. I quickly opened my diary, and made an entry.
Tim. That’s his name. Hes awesome in soo may ways, and im super excited for the party. Also, I know that me and him are gonna have a great relationship. I can feel the electricity whenever we touch. I have to make sure I look extra cute. He won’t be able to take his eyes off of me! Till then….
I suddenly felt refreshed. I quickly made my way to my closet and put on my pajamas. I was tired, and I wanted to dream as much as I could.
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:54 pm
hey did any 1 remember my story i got more done if any 1 wants 2 see it
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:01 pm
alright hrers the laaast chapter (well the last chapter tht i wrote.. i havent finished writing yett.. more 2 come soon tho
Chapter 4:
I opened my eyes slowly, and gave out a faint “ugh”. I grabbed my phone from my nightstand and read the display. It said 10:35. I might as well get up, I thought to myself. I slowly made my way to the bathroom, knowing my teeth were about to get a rough scrub-down. I walked into the small bathroom me and Logan shared, and saw that someone was already brushing their teeth. And instead of Logans dark brown hair, I saw a lighter shade of hair bobbing up and down as he shook his toothbrush. I was mortified. Nobody looked good in the morning. Nobody. I couldn’t let Tim see me like this. But instead of turning around, and going back to my room, I came face to face with Tim. He was smiling, and he looked refreshed.
“Good morning” he said, smiling with his perfect teeth. Afraid that my breath reeked, I quickly said good morning while looking down at my feet. I walked around him, and made my way to the bathroom. Once I was safely inside, I poked my head out and said “See you downstairs” He smiled back, and turned his back so he could make his way back to Logan’s room. I noticed how adorable he looked, even though he was in a plaid pair of pants, and a matching blue t-shirt. I quickly brushed my teeth, and made my way to my closet. I decided to go with a dark blue baby doll shirt, and a light pair of jeans. After putting on a headband, and straightening my hair, I went downstairs. I noticed that Logan, Tim, and my mother were all in the kitchen. “Good morning everyone.” I said with a smile.
“Somebody’s happy” Logan said, while digging into a bowl of Cheerios. I rolled my eyes as I opened the pantry, and reached my arm out to grab the Honey Bunches of Oats. But they weren’t there. I looked at the kitchen table, and noticed the box sitting there, and Tim taking bite after bite of the cereal. I smiled, and lowered myself onto the chair. “Next time you want to eat my cereal, tell me.” I said with a coy smile.
“I will” Tim said, sliding the box towards me. I poured myself a bowl, and watched as my mom poured her coffee.
“So, what are you guys planning on doing today?” My mom asked, taking a seat next to me.
“Don’t know.” Logan said, not even taking a breath between bites.
“Logan, slow down” My mother said, with a stern look.
Me and Tim both laughed, then hid our faces by looking down at our cereal bowls.
“Dana, what about you?” My mom said, taking a sip of her coffee.
“I’m going to the mall with Terry, Cara, and Sabrina.” I said, noticing Logans head come up just at the sound of Sabrina’s name.
“The mall? You were just there the other day!” My mom said. I didn’t feel like explaining that none of the clothes I had gotten the day were party-worthy, or in other words, Tim-worthy.
“I need to get an outfit for Saturday. It’s in seven days, mom.” I told her, looking down.
“Alright, well, I’m off. I have to make a quick stop at the bank, then I need to go to the-” Just then she shut the door behind, leaving her and her worried thoughts on the other side of the door.
‘bum bum be dum, bum bum be dum bum’ My phone rang, and I pointed a finger at Logan and Tim, showing I’d only be a second. “Hello?”
“Hey, do you still wanna hit the mall? I think if we go now, we could make it to every store. I’ve been looking online. I’ve seen a lot of things, I can’t wait.” I could tell Sabrina was excited, because she spoke in a high pitched tone.
“Totally. When is your mom gonna pick us up?” I asked, while running my fingers through my hair. Logan and Tim were in deep conversation on the other end of the kitchen, and I really wanted to know what they were talking about, but decided not to let it bug me

Chapter 1- Tuesday, 5:12 pm
“Hahahaha!” The sound of Jinx, Rebecca, Kelly, and Deanna laughing their heads off, filled the silent room at the Rose Petal Lifetime Spa. This was Jinx’s favourite ring tone for her iphone.
She had recorded it at one of her sleepover parties. Jinx Canova and her BFFs had been eating pretzels, wearing their pjs, and watching She’s the Man on Jinx’s 75 inch flat screen TV. One of Jinx’s BFFs, Deanna, glanced over toward their other good friend, Kelly. Kelly had stuffed two pretzels up each nostril. (This wasn’t all that surprising, since Kelly was always acting silly and hyper). So then, Deanna started laughing said, “Hey guys, look at Kelly!” All of the girls quickly turned around to see what was so amusing, and as soon as they saw their friend they burst out laughing. To make it even funnier, Kelly took the pretzels from her nose, and ate them. Even Kelly herself started giggling. Then they all burst into hysterics, and all night they kept reminding each other of that moment, and laughed every time the story had been retold.
“Ugh,” grunted Jinx as she reached down from the massage table, and grabbed her laughing iphone from her purse. “Hello?” Jinx answered. She held her index finger up to Etta, her massage therapist, indicating that she would only take a minute.
“Hey Jinx!” Rebecca said cheerfully, with her slight Scottish accent.
“Hey, Bec! What’s up?” Jinx said.
“Oh, I was wondering if I could borrow a dress.”
“A dress?”
“Yeah. You see, my aunt, you know the one from Scotland? Well, she kinda showed up unexpectedly, and she’s taking us to this restaurant for dinner that sounds really fancy. I think it’s called something Divine.”
“And you need a dress?”
“Yeah”
“Well, I’m kind of in the middle of a massage right now, but why don’t you come by my place at around 5:30, okay? And we can pick out the perfect dress.”
“Okay, sounds good. Thank you so much Jinx!”
“ Okay, bye!”
“Yeah, bye.” Rebecca said just before hanging up.
“Sorry about that.” Jinx apologized to Etta for ‘wasting her time with silly kid phone calls’. That was what Etta had said to her once, while Deanna had called Jinx in the middle of a massage to ask her where she had gotten that cute halter top she had been wearing that day.
“Its fine”, Etta said, although she sounded irritated by the second ‘silly kid phone call’. Jinx just pretended not to notice and enjoyed the rest of her massage.
********************************************************************************************
Jinx wanted to go straight upstairs, and pick out some dresses that Rebecca might like, as soon as she got home from her massage. Once she got back to the Canova estate, she thanked her chauffeur, Ian, for picking her up and dropping her off. Then she checked the time. “5:14” she mumbled to herself. “Just enough time to pick out a couple of dresses for her”. Jinx waltzed up the marble staircase to her bedroom singing Leavin’ by Jesse McCartney.
Once she got up to her room, she immediately thought of the PERFCT dress for her BFF to wear. She envisioned her blue-eyed friend in a strapless black dress, with dainty sequins sewn around the top. She knew that dress would get her buddy and armload of compliments. Jinx had worn it before, to one of her parents’ rich friends’ house parties. People all around her said things like, “Love the sequins!”, or “that totally flatters your legs!” One snobby woman even said, “If I didn’t already own that dress in every colour, I would have stole it from you!”
So Jinx took out the dress, and a few other cute ones, and laid them out on her king-sized bed. Then she walked back to her walk-in closet and stood in front of her dress rack looking for a turquoise one, because of course, Rebecca’s favourite colour was turquoise. But, she shook the thought out of her head, since turquoise wasn’t really an evening colour.
“Boo!” yelled a familiar voice.
“Ahhhhh!” screeched Jinx a high-pitched voice. She turned around and came face to face with Rebecca. “Geez Bec! You almost scared me to death!” Jinx over-exaggerated.
“Geez Bec! Geez Bec!” squawked Sadie, Jinx’s Amazon parrot, from her amazingly large cage. Rebecca and Jinx giggled at the talking parrot.
“So do you have any ideas about what I should wear?” Rebecca asked Jinx, after their mini giggle-fest had ended.
“Umm, yeah. I picked out a couple of dresses. They’re over there.” Jinx replied as she tilted her head towards her faux-fur covered bed.
“Oh, cool. Well, I brought over some accessories and a pair of shoes too.” Rebecca explained, lifting up a plastic Aldo bag with her index and middle finger. “But let’s pick the dress first.” Rebecca said. Jinx nodded in agreement.
Rebecca had a hard time deciding between three of the dresses, which included the short black one with the sequins. But, her and Jinx eventually decided on a navy blue shift dress. To make it not so formal, they added a pair of black leggings, since she was only going out to dinner, not a ball or a prom. She chose to wear black flats with it instead of heels, since she was already tall, at 5’8. A few silver bangles completed her look.
Rebecca thanked Jinx about a billion times before calling her chauffeur, Jeremy to pick her up.
(As Jinx is standing outside, saying goodbye to Rebecca)
“Jinx!” called Samantha, Jinx’s mother, from inside the house.
“Bye Rebecca!” Jinx said, before responding to her mother. “Yeah mom?” Jinx asked as she walked back inside her house.
“Marcella has dinner waiting on the table. Luke is here, and he’s eating with us tonight”. Samantha replied. Marcella was their housekeeper, and cook. She was a nice little old German woman. She was always friendly and usually quiet. Marcella just went around, minding her own business, but when someone asked her opinion on something, you would be sitting there for an hour, listening to what she thought. Jinx’s parents thought she was annoying, and was tired of hearing what she thought, but Jinx wasn’t. Jinx loved talking to Marcella, and Marcella was also a great listener. Jinx always told her, her problems and trusted her with all of her secrets. So anyway, enough about Marcella. Let’s talk about Luke. Luke was the boyfriend of Jinx’s older sister. Jinx’s sister, Evangeline (Eva) had met Luke while she was in Italy for the summer with her friends after she had just graduated. She and Luke fell in love, and it was a happily ever after. Until, the summer had ended and Eva had to come back to Oregon. So, since Luke had the money, and the love for Eva, he moved out to Oregon with her. He now has his own apartment, a couple of blocks away from the Canova Estate.
Jinx ran upstairs to spray a few spritzes of vanilla scented body spray on and touch up her blush. Then she ran back downstairs as quickly as she could, and washed her hands.
“Hi Jinx”, Luke greeted her with a warm friendly smile.
“Hey”, Jinx said and smiled back.
“Okay, everybody! Let’s sit down, and have this wonderful meal prepared by Marcella” Samantha announced to Jinx, Luke, Eva, and Albert, Jinx’s father.
“Okay, who’s going to say grace?” Samantha asked. Saying grace wasn’t something they usually did, but Luke was a Christian, so when he came over they respected that, and prayed.
“I think Jinx should pray tonight”, Albert said.
“Me?” Jinx asked, somewhat surprised. She had never prayed before. What would she say? Would Luke think she was weird if she said the wrong things? And who was she praying to anyway? Questions raced through Jinx’s mind, that she had never thought about before.
“I think it’s a great idea” Luke agreed, in his thick Italian accent.
“Ummm, okay”, Jinx said uneasily. “But, what do I say?”
“Anything”, Luke said. “Things you’re thankful for, things you want, anything”
“Okay”, said Jinx.
They all bowed their heads, and joined hands. “Ummm. . . hi God. Well I’m thankful for my family, my TV, my ugg boots, and my new Burberry bag, and . . .
“Jinx!” her mother practically spat. Her dad chuckled. Eva looked at Luke, and Luke grinned and lightly shook his head.
“What?” Jinx asked, not knowing what she did wrong.
“Its okay Jinx. I’ll just finish for you”, Luke said. “So, thank you god for this wonderful food, and for the wonderful people who I am surrounded by. Please bless my ma and my papa, and keep them safe. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
“Amen”, the rest of the family said in unison.
Throughout the rest of the roast beef, mashed potatoes, and caeser salad, they talked about how Luke’s courses at George Fox University were going, about Jinx’s new school project on Japan, and about all of the funny things Sadie, (Jinx’s parrot) had said.
After dinner, Samantha reminded Jinx to work on her Japan project. “But mom,” Jinx protested, “It’s not due until Friday. And besides, I need to spend some time with Sadie, I’ve been neglecting her ever since this project started.”
“Jinx, it’s Tuesday, and your project is due in three days. You need to do some work on it! You can spend time with Sadie when you do at least some work. Now go up to your room, and do some research.” Samantha ordered, as she helped Marcella carry the plates into the kitchen.
“Yes, mom,” Jinx said as she headed for the stairs. Her mother was right; she did need to work on her project, but also needed to spend time with Sadie. Amazon parrots weren’t like any other parrots. Not all people could handle Amazon parrots, because they required a lot more attention than regular parrots. They are playful, energetic, and outgoing. Amazon parrots could be moody, and loving. They yearn for human interaction and attention, so Jinx paid as much attention to her as possible. But right now she needed to focus on her homework.
When she got up the stairs, she went straight to work. She was supposed to find all of the information on culture on Japan as she could, and present it any way she wanted. Jinx decided to make scrapbook with pictures, and little facts here and there, and on the very last page, she would write a whole page on just about everything to do with culture. She was sure this would score her an automatic A; if she ever finished it that is. So Jinx went straight to her Apple MacBook to find some pictures.
Once Jinx had printed a few pictures of clothing and food from Japan, and written a few facts about their traditional dances, she decided to text Rebecca to see how the dinner went:
Jinx.Canova: hey. howd dinner w/ auntie go?
Becbaby950: ok. Jack threw up on waiter. lol.
Jinx.Canova: lol. I wish i saw it. hows aunt?
Becbaby950: annoying. Shes staying @ my house for 3 weeks!
Jinx.Canova: bummer.
Becbaby950: I know. Shes so snobby. She wouldnt stop bragging.
Jinx.Canova: about?
Becbaby950: everything. oh i g2g. auntie is coming.
Jinx.Canova: ok. Bye
Jinx turned off her cell.
give me feedback!

here is the secind chapter of my story. the first one is poted above. please read and comment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chapter 2- Wednesday, 7:51 pm
“Jinx hurry up!”, Samantha yelled up the stairs, trying to get her daughter to school on time.
“Yeah mom, just a minute!”, Jinx yelled out her bedroom door, as she was packing her Rasberry-flavoured Aquafina water bottle into her new Burberry bag. Jinx had recently discovered she had a passion for flavoured water, and brought a bottle to school everyday.
Jinx took one last look in the mirror, and rushed downstairs as fast as she could, while holding her bag and lunch money. She didn’t intend to be late, but she didn’t wake up on time that morning. Still, she wasn’t going to be late, she just wouldn’t have any time to socialize before getting to her first class.
She climbed into the front seat of her mother’s black Escalade Hybrid. Samantha was already waiting in the driver’s seat. Since it was Wednesday, their chauffeur’s day off, Samantha drove Jinx to school. The ride to Greenwood Valley High wasn’t very pleasant for Samantha or Jinx. The entire time, Jinx and her mother argued about Jinx’s project. They said stuff like this:
“Jinx have you almost completed your project yet?” Samantha would say
“No, of course not. I’m not like, smart or anything.”, Jinx would say.
“Jinx, you’re brilliant and you know it. Don’t try to make excuses for not finishing your assignment.”
“I’m not making excuses! I’m serious! I am not good at Social Studies.”
“You got an A on your last report card, remember? You’re simply just being lazy.”
This went on for a while until Jinx promised to work on it the second she got home from school, until dinner. Then continue working on it until she went to bed. She would do this the next two days until it was finished, considering it was due on Friday. Samantha promised that if Jinx worked really hard on it for the next two days, she would let Jinx have a sleepover party on Friday to celebrate.
Jinx stepped out of the Escalade Hybrid onto the warm cement with her bright yellow flip-flops. She was absolutely excited at the thought of summer vacation being only three short weeks away. Jinx could hardly wait for school to end so she could relax on the beach, and hang out with her friends, every single one of them. She had already made plans with all of her friends, which were almost all of the kids at the school. The first day of summer she was planning to have a pool party at her place, with tropical drinks, sunglasses, great music, tanning, and a lot of fun.
She slipped on her aviator sunglasses with the white frames and smoothed out her yellow flowing halter top. Jinx felt great because she was completely warm since, it was 25ºc. It was the perfect temperature, not too hot, but delightfully warm.
“Hey, Jinx”, Deanna greeted her just outside of the school building, with a smile and a hug.
“Hey Dee, what’s up?” Jinx replied back.
“Nothing really. But you’re late, the bell is about to ring.” Deanna said, hoping to find out Jinx’s reason for not meeting at Kelly’s locker at 7:50, like they usually did in the mornings.
“Yeah, sorry. I woke up a little late this morning.” Jinx apologized. She started to wonder where her other best friends, Kelly and Rebecca were.
“Kelly and Rebecca are in the caf buying a diet pop. I told them I was coming out here to wait for you.” Deanna said, as if reading Jinx’s mind. Deanna did that a lot. She would answer Jinx’s questions before Jinx even asked one. They knew each other so well, that this kind of stuff happened to them. Jinx had one of those thoughts that said “I’m so glad we’re friends. I love her!”, and resisted the urge to hug her friend again.
“Okay let’s go meet them,” Jinx suggested, hoping to say hello to her friends before the first bell rang. ‘Ding, ding, ding’ The sound of the first bell went off and startled a sleeping boy who fell asleep while trying to finish his math homework before school started. Jinx and Deanna giggled at the boy as he opened his eyes almost so wide they fell out. “I guess we can’t go after all”, Jinx said to Deanna, as they walked into the school together.
Once inside the school, they parted ways. As Jinx entered the school, she walked straight ahead to the end of the hall, and Deanna turned left and headed to gym class. When Jinx reached her locker, she turned the dial twice left to zero, than once left to three, than twice right around to twenty-six, and once around left to seventeen. She grabbed her English binder and the pack of green unopened Stride gum from inside of her locker. Then she walked back to the main entrance and up the wide staircase to Mrs. Rillo’s English class.
She got there just in time to chat a little before class started. Mrs. Rillo was always late in the mornings anyways. Jinx sat down in the desk next to Kyle. Kyle was tall, with short blonde hair, and a great sense of humor. He always wore brands like Burton, Hurley, and DC. He was into skateboarding, and was the class clown. “Hi” Kyle said.
“Hey” Jinx said. “Did you finish your homework?” she asked, making conversation.
“Hah! Me? Do homework? You’re kidding.” Kyle said, with a smile. Kyle was right though. He never did his homework. And to tell the truth, Jinx never did her English homework either. But then again, neither did most of the kids. There was no use paying a geek to do it for you. Mrs. Rillo didn’t care one way or the other if you did your homework or not. She was the kind of teacher who you could use any excuse on. Even one like, “I didn’t feel like doing it”. Mrs. Rillo would say, “Oh, don’t worry about it. You can get class time to finish it if you want.” But then we would never get class time, and she would never collect it. She never gave out tests either. Mrs. Rillo’s teaching methods were a little strange, but the kids liked it of course.
“Well, are you coming to my party in the summer?” Jinx asked changing the subject. She hoped he would come. He was a lot of fun.
“Yeah, I am. Who else is gonna be there?” he asked Jinx.
“So far, umm . . . . I don’t know. A lot of people. I know that Felicia and Regan can’t come. And Gordon can’t come either. But almost everyone else is gonna be there.” Jinx replied.
“Everyone, as in Neil too?” Kyle gestured toward the little scrawny, nerdy kid sitting in the back of the class. He had a uni-brow and was taking his nasal medication, while he was reading his anime comic book.
“Don’t be so mean!” Jinx said and slapped him. Kyle laughed. “What is taking Mrs. Rillo so long?” she asked, changing the subject once again.
“I don’t know. Maybe she has diarrhea.” Kyle suggested.
“You’re so gross!” Jinx exclaimed with disgust as she slapped him again.
“Wow” Marie, the girl sitting next to Kyle on his other side said. “You come up with the weirdest things to say.” She said, referring to Kyle.
“I know right?” Jinx agreed with her. She liked Marie, she was really nice.
“I know right?” Kyle mimicked her in his over-exaggerated girly voice. Jinx rolled her eyes at him, and so did Marie.
“Kyle, I like your new way of talking” Mrs. Rillo said as she walked into the room, just in time to hear Kyle mimicking Jinx.
“Thank you” Kyle said proudly, then stood up for a little bow. Everyone applauded.
Mrs. Rillo calmed down the class, and asked her usual, “So, did anyone have time to finish their homework last night?” Everyone’s answer was “no”, except for Neil, who always did his work. The rest of the English class went by fast, because they only had to work on one set of questions, having to do with the novel study they were reading as a class. The class would’ve been boring, but Kyle kept it alive, like he always did. Kyle was pretty cool, and Jinx could see why Rebecca liked him so much. Jinx didn’t think of him as anything more than a friend. And if she did, Rebecca would never forgive her. But Jinx had her own crush anyhow. His name was Pierce. He was in her P.E. class. She was glad he was in her P.E. class, because that way she could show off how good she was at volleyball. Jinx even played on his team for a game in P.E. once, and he had told her she played really well. But of course, Pierce was just as good, even better than her. It would be a lot worse if she sucked though.
********************************************************************************************
After English, and Social Studies, it was time for lunch. Jinx was a little anxious for lunch to come around, because she wanted to say hello to her friends, since she had missed saying hi to them in the morning.
She slammed her locker door shut after putting her Social Studies binder away. “Hey beautiful” Kelly said, as she, Rebecca, and Deanna were walking toward Jinx, and Kelly had a big smile on her face. Kelly was always smiling. Kelly had a way of making everyone feel happy, just by being in the same room as them.
“Oh, hey” Jinx said and greeted each of her friends with a hug.
“We missed saying hi to you this morning” Rebecca said, leaning on the locker next to Jinx’s.
“I know, I’m sorry.” Jinx apologized. “I woke up late”
“That’s okay, Deanna told us about it” said Kelly.
“Let’s go to the caf” Jinx said, as she and her friends made their way through the busy hallway towards the cafeteria.
The cafeteria was fairly empty, since most people ate outside on these summer days, or walked to down the street to the McDonalds. Jinx’s mother didn’t like her eating at McDonalds, considering how unhealthy it was. So Jinx and her friends ate at the cafeteria. Well, they didn’t actually eat at the cafeteria. They bought their food there and then went outside to the picnic tables and ate there.
“Move it,” some large, tenth-grade kid behind Kelly in the line to buy food, said impatiently.
“No. Don’t tell me to ‘move it’ ” Kelly said bravely. She has never had a problem with peer pressure, or standing up to bullies. Kelly was outgoing, brave, and courageous. After that, the boy didn’t say anything more. He shut up and moved along.
They bought their lunch; Jinx with her tuna salad, flavoured water and plain yogurt, Rebecca with her chicken burger, granola bar, and Dasani bottled water, Kelly with her Caesar salad, iced tea, and fruit cup, and Deanna with her turkey sandwich, diet A&W Rootbeer, and bag of baked lays potato chips.
They walked outside and grabbed the first clean picnic table the saw and sat down at it. “So how’s Kyle today?” Rebecca asked Jinx, knowing she had English class with him.
“Yeah, he was his usual hilarious self” she replied to Rebecca.
“Speak of the devil,” Kelly said as she looked up and across the courtyard towards Kyle.
“Nobody says that these days Kelly,” said Deanna.
“Whatever” said Kelly, and giggled.
“Ahhhhh, he’s so cute!” squealed Rebecca. “And he just looked over here. Hey, I think he’s gonna come over” a very excited Rebecca said. She was right; Kyle started making his way over to the table of the four best friends. He and his friend Jonathon were holding their Rockstar energy drinks and skateboarding towards them.
“Hey, guys.” Kyle said, to the girls, and then side-glanced at Rebecca. Rebecca blushed. Then Jonathon did a quick head nod, acknowledging the girls also.
“Hi,” Jinx and Kelly said in unison. Rebecca and Deanna smiled. Kyle and Jonathon sat down and chatted for a few minutes, and then they left to meet their other skateboarding friends at McDonalds.
“I almost died just there!” exclaimed Rebecca. “He actually looked at me!” Rebecca’s blue eyes sparkled and danced in the sunlight.
“Relax Bec. He only looked at you,” Deanna said, trying to calm down her friend.
“Awww, come on. Let her be happy,” Kelly said, and then nudged Rebecca and giggled.
The rest of the day went by fairly fast, and before long, Jinx was making her way across the parking lot towards her mothers’ Escalade Hybrid. She wasn’t exactly looking forward to going home, because of her project and all of the hard work that lie ahead of her.
“Hi sweetie,” Samantha said sweetly as Jinx stepped into the car. She set down her Burberry bag and responded to her mothers greeting with a simple “hi”.
Jinx and Samantha drove up the winding driveway to The Canova Estate. Samantha pulled into one of the four garages.

Like I said, doesn’t it suck that its human nature to want what you can’t have? It does. So. I liked this guy. He liked me. He told me he liked me (and a coupla other friends did too) and i told him i liked him. I guess after like i day i was just kinda whatever about liking him…i sorta did…i sorta didn’t…then today i heard my bff and this guy talking and he was like “so if he asked you out what would you say?” she was like, “prolly no but maybe after the mac dance” (the mac dance is this big exclusive awesome dance lol. im very depressed about that too. ill tell why later) he was like oh. then i was like whatcha talking about? and the guy was like oh can i tell her? she was like oh whatever.
he was like (guy i like, ill call him M) likes her. I was like hmmmmm…then later my friend asked my if i liked M, cuz he liked me. HMMMMMMMMMM. Then i was like, well he likes adele (my bff). She was like oh ill ask him. she asked him in another class, then was like, he said he likes adele. UGH!
to make this more complicated, she likes him. to make this even more complicated, I went out with him for a brief period last year. He like all summer. He liked adele about 5 times, me about 7. he has always thought I was hot (he told me) and he thinks adele is cool.
ugh. now that he doesnt like me, i REALLY like him. AHHHHHH.
plus he is sooooo hot. easily the hottest guy in our grade, x like 100. lol.
my depressive note about the mac dance. I am very sad. my friend told me she got me a guest pass, then like a couple days ago she was like, im sorry, i forgot to get you a guest pass!! ugh. and its tomorrow. me and my other bff who was waitlisted for a guess pass are having a sleepover and obsess about how we cant g oto the mac dance and how our crushes dont like us. (her crush doesnt like her either)
