"Omg! It's Josh!" Squealed Seirra, as she and her best friend found a table in the year ten area.
Joshua Bridgestone was the footy king of Stonewell High. You know the kind; big, loud, tries to tackle his mates in maths class, has a disgusting mullet.
"Who cares Seirra?" Asked Amanda.
"Oh come on Mandy! Why do you hate him, he's literally like, the hottest boy in year ten!"
"He's a fucking dickhead!" Cried Amanda, flicking her orange plaits behind her shoulders.
Amanda couldn't stand Josh. He was such a nuisance, always bugging people, simply for the heck of it.
"Oh come on, you're just mad he drew a penis on your chair." Seirra argued.
She was mad, but not just about that...
Amanda banged her bag down on the table.
"No! He's, In the immortal words of Lily Evans, An arrogant bullying toe rag!"
"Suit yourself love."

Seirra and Amanda were soon joined by Claudia Fisher, Derek Tyler, Brian Lastlett, Imogen Broome and Axel Jones.
"Derek's in looooove!" Sung Claudia. She was wearing an enormous pair of parrot earrings, and had her fringe tied up like a unicorn horn.
"Shut up!" Cried Derek. He chucked his sandwich at Claudia.
"Your face is redder than my hair!" Snorted Amanda.
"Who's he fallen for this time?" Imogen asked.
Derek seemed to fall for every boy who spoke to him. Derek frequently insisted this wasn't true. He wasn't fooling anyone.
"Michael Clarke!" Claudia yelled.
"Fuck you!" Cried Derek.
"But we're both gay!"
"...Fuck yourself then!"
"Oh I will!"
"Oh my God, shut the fuck up!" Yelled Seirra.
Brian looked at Axel. Axel was lost inside his book. Lord of The Flies.
"We're the only sane ones here."
"Dude, you tried to eat a rock yesterday!" Axel cried.
Just as Brian was about to retort, Camilla, Jennifer and David ran over from the 'popular people' table.
Camilla had light brown hair, but she'd bleached it a while ago. Now she had brown roots.
Jennifer had a long black braid and pale grey eyes. Today she had white acrylic nails on. How incredibly basic.
David had curly brown hair, but it was short so it just sort of sat in waves, instead of actually curling.
"Oi ranga!" Yelled Camilla.
Amanda ignored her. Jennifer stared at Amanda.
"Oh you mean me? I'm not an orangutan, unlike some people. Because you seem to have such bad memories, I'll remind you that my name's Amanda. Amanda Lily White."
"Yeah, whatever, so like, we were like talking to Josh and he's, like, literally, in love with you, like he's gonna, like, ask you out later." Jennifer said.
"Could you say like anymore times?" Asked Claudia, looking at Jennifer as though she were covered in something gross.
Jennifer ignored her.
"So whatcha gonna say bestie?" Asked David. He tried to imitate the stereotypical gay hand-flip, the one that Claudia often did, but he failed miserably.
Amanda blinked several times.
"Can you just leave?" Asked Brian.
Amanda smiled at Brian. Brian smiled back.
"No I'm talking to Amanda!" Cried David.
"Bruh, go away!" Cried Axel.
"That's a bit rude, we were just having a conversation!" Camilla said.
"So, like, whatcha gonna say?" Asked Jennifer.
"Piss off. All three of you!" Cried Seirra.
"Jesus Christ! You're all so fucking rude." Muttered Jennifer. She, Camilla and David strutted back to their table.
"Bitches." Muttered Imogen.

Amanda looked over to the 'popular people' table.
Zoe was sitting in Josh's lap.
Her skirt was definitely shorter than the dress code mandated.
Josh and Zoe got up.
Josh and Henry started play fighting.
After a bit, Henry got sick of Josh and chucked a biscuit at him.
Josh grabbed a bottle of iced coffee.
Maybe he completely misjudged the throw, or maybe it was on purpose.
Either way, the bottle landed on Amanda's head.
The lid came off.
Amanda was soaked in coffee.
Amanda hated coffee, just the smell of it made her feel sick.
She stood stunned for a moment, then...
"FUCK YOU!!! FUCK YOURSELF AND DIE IN A HOLE!" she yelled in Josh's direction.
Everyone at the 'popular people' table laughed.
Nasty Bitches.
She flipped him off.
Then she ran to the girl's bathroom.
Amanda locked herself in a stall.
Tears poured from her eyes.
Someone knocked at the door.
"Mandy?" Asked Seirra's voice.
"I'm fine." Amanda huffed.
"Okay, umm, class starts in a few minutes..." Seirra trailed off.
"Bye Seirra." Said Amanda firmly.
Seirra left.
Amanda phoned her mother.
