It's been a few days since I had my little fight with Nina and to say that we are on bad terms would be an understatement. I haven't been sitting with my usual group, usually, I stay at least ten meters away from her and her little colony of popular's, which is pretty difficult seen as the corridors are only twenty meters in width, but when there are crowds of rambunctious teenagers galloping around like they're late for every class, that's probably true, it can be quiet a challenge escaping them.
Anyway, so right now I'm in my fourth-period class waiting for the teacher to come, I've been arriving earlier than usual so I'm not spotted by Mariah or anyone of my old groupies, you're probably like 'Why don't you want to be spotted by them?', well to put it short, I really don't want another bitchy fight with Nina or even Liam.
Liam.
My shoulders still hurt from when he shoved them, is he a werewolf or something? I mean, I swear he gave me bigger bruises from his force than when I fell down the stairs and landed on my butt, let me tell you now, never try to go down three flights of step, steep steps, in a cardboard box, 'cause you'll either end up on your butt with a throbbing pain or on your head with a concussion.
Suddenly the door slams open and in comes an enraged Chris Myers. I look up to see him slamming his crunched up fists on my desk, raising my eyebrow in confusion he just stares at me. Thirty seconds later he decides to speak up, "Well, are you going to say anything," yells Chris.
I just look at him in bewilderment, "Explain why you've been ignoring us, Mariah is literally freaking, none of us has seen you in four bloody weeks!" Okay so when I said it's been a few days since Nina and I's scene what I really meant to say was It's been around about twenty-eight days, maybe a bit less.
"Uh..." I mutter, he just slams his hands back down on my table and stares at me with his bright brown eyes, "You know what? Just ignore us we don't care, or need you," mutters a vexed Chris, sadness overwhelms me, did he really mean that? I mean I've only been here for about two months, it's not like I've made a big change to their little clique, "It's not like I've changed your little troop of cliches," I spit with fury, speaking my mind.
"Haven't change? Ha, that's funny because from what I've noticed was that, Nina's gotten bitchier and more protective of herself, Reece basically looks like he's in love, Amelia's a lot less shy, Mariah's even more talkative, Liam looks happier and I finally feel like I have a friend who listens to me!" He whispers with fury, even though the thing about Liam's a total lie I have to say that the rest is very much true, Liam's just his normal jerky self.
I just hum in though.
"Is this your way of telling me to sit with your little popular parade at lunchtime?" I question, "Because yelling at me in front of half a class isn't really the way to go, actually, this is rather off-putting," I state with a scowl, I've never seen Chris show so much emotion over something, he just scoffs and walks away from me. I swear I hear him mutter that he misses me before he walks off.

Ring, a blaring screech is emitted from one of the many school bells telling us that it's time for lunch. I slowly walk into the canteen, I made food at home so I just grabbed the brown paper bag out of my locker before walking into the canteen. It's been a while since I last came in here, I was planning on saying sorry to Mariah but right at this moment I just felt awkward walking to the centre table.
As I near the table I look over at all their faces, none of them is talking except for Chris, he's probably telling them about what happened in class, all of their faces even the ecstatic Riley's face is blank and emotionless.
Wow, did I really affect them this much?
I soon halt right in front of them and cough a little to gain their attention, when they all turn to me they each raise one of their perfectly structured eyebrows, "So little miss Everlie has returned?" spits a very docile looking Amelia, I just cast my eyes down to my shoes, "What is it? You're not welcome here," I hear an irritated Riley disown, "I just wanted to talk to Mariah," I whisper in regret, "You lost that privilege two weeks ago," a hiss emits from Mariah, I just look up to see a glaring, Mariah, Riley and Amelia, a smug-looking Nina and Annabel and A very upset looking Reece and Chris.
Leo and Theo aren't here, probably at basketball practice, and Liam just looks amused, well fuck him too. "Guy's you're being very hypocritical, when I left randomly for three months and came back all of you attacked me with hugs asking if I was okay, now look at you bitching at poor Everlie," Liam chuckles, well I'm glad someone finds this funny.
They all downcast their eyes to their food except for Bastard number one, Liam and Bitch number one, Nina, "Well you're different, she's a fake little twat and unimportant, while you're an important being in this school and is actually our friend," Nina giggles, I just roll my eyes at her.
Jolly crisps, he's your 'friend' only because of his school status.
"Shut your stupid brain up Nina we all know you've threatened half the school about Everlie because you're scared that your 'Miss Queen Bee' status will be given to her," Liam spits back, Nina then proceeds to retract her smirk into a blank face, "Mariah just go talk to her," Chris steps in.
Getting up from her seat I start walking away from the table with Mariah in tow, we reach the outskirts of the cafeteria I turn to face her, immediately I'm pushed into a tight embrace, goodness this girl is strong, "Oh my lord Liv, I thought you had retreated back to your old school!" Mariah gushes.
"Can't...Breath..." I gasp melodramatically, she suddenly lets go of me and apologizes at least fourteen times, "Riah I wouldn't leave without saying goodbye, I've only been hiding from you guys because I really can't risk having another fight with anyone because it draws too much attention towards me," I state, using her nickname Riah, she just nods understanding from where I'm coming from, then we both walk back to eat our lunch.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right now it's about four-fifteen in the afternoon and I have work, fun! no, not really.
I've been working as a part-time model ever since mum forced me to do this modelling clinic, so I've been doing this for about eight years now, but I'm not very famous because I only do this part-time. My mum wants me to be like my half-sister but I want to take over my mothers business, even though it sounds boring I would earn wads of money.
Walking into a large looking office building is always very strange, usually because there will be about thirteen hot guys walking around in nothing but their underwear and sometimes there's even a woman walking around in the laciest looking underwear ever. I work in the lingerie section, so I'm very comfortable with my body and walking around in nothing but underwear.
Sophie's also into the whole part-time modelling thing but she's a fashion model (I sort of am but I have a body for lingerie modelling), so I barely ever see her, I don't really like showing off about this whole model thing so I try to keep it on the down-low.
I walk straight into the women's lounge where we change, do our makeup, talk and relax basically, in the centre of the room I notice that my manager is talking to a few older looking ladies who I've never seen before, they look to be about twenty-two to twenty-four, I shuffle over to them to see what's going on.
"Hey, Laurie who are they?" I question my manager, Laurie then turns around with an enormous grin on her face, "Oh my goodness Liv!" She squeals, she then reaches for my shoulders and shakes them, "I've just landed you a great way of upping your modelling career!" Again she squeals at me, I just roll my eyes at her, "What is it?" I ask in a bored tone, she just laughs at my emotionless face.
"You're going to be modelling a teen clothing line, the cool thing is it's been created by Flo De Forêt," my eyes have now basically fallen out of my face, Flo De Forêt is a top French fashion designer, she is pure talent, amazing, I buy a lot of her clothes.
"OH MY GOD, Thank you so so so so so so so much Laurie!" I yell in total bliss, just because I don't want to be a model I want to be the best in my year and category before I retire and move onto a less sexiest job.
"When? And where is it?" I ask in awe, she just giggles and hands me the program," Here read over this, the fitting times and the showtimes I'll text you but for now you don't have work until the fitting, I just want you to go over your structure and make sure you're getting enough sleep and water, natural beauty is key," she explains, I just nod and give her a quick hug before walking out of the building to my car.

As I read over the program for my up and coming fashion show excitement filled up my stomach making butterfly's wiggle around in my gut. It says that the show will be next week, so it's very close and I'll probably have about three outfits I have to wear. It will be very awkward I'd say especially if I have to talk to anyone, but oh well I'm getting somewhere so that's the that matters.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next couple of days went very slowly but today was finally Friday, I've heard nothing about the fashion show except rumours that are floating around the school and the times and what I should be doing to prep for it from my manager. So that meant eating nothing but salads, doing a lot of exercises and using heaps of beauty night products and morning products.
All of my friends were slowly going back to their normal selves, apart from Nina, she seemed very distant and 'nice', suspicious.
"Hey Ever," Chris greets me as I walk over to the lunch table, no one was here yet apart from Chris and me because we have the same classes and we both got let out to lunch early, "Hey my peasant," I greet back, we've both gotten a lot closer like best friend closeness, "Have you heard about the fashion show happening next Friday?" Chris asks me.
I just nod and sit my bottom on the green, plastic chair next to him, "Yeah, my friend's are actually a part of it," I say, he turns his head to me and gleams with curiosity, he's so cute! Not in that way though.
"Nice, what're their names?" He asks polity, "Uh, Sophie and Lively," I say with a light smile on my face, when I say the name 'Lively' his eyes widen, weird.
"You know Lively?"
I just nod.
"I know her as well!"
I just raise my eyebrow.
"She's all Liam used to talk about"
I slowly nod again.
"Are you going to actually talk or..."
I just shake my head and he frowns, I let a little giggle pass my lips and he scrunches his nose together, have I said how cute this fella is?
Just then I hear a chair scraping the ground, I look up to see Liam sitting down, he and Chris do this weird handshake thing and I just stare at them in amusement for a bit till Liam speaks up, "So...What you are guys talking about?" He said awkwardly, I just smile a bit and Chris goes to answer, "We were talking about the fashion show next week and how Ev knows two of the models," Liam just nods, "Oh yeah, Teen dream or something like that aye," hmm he knows about it.
"Yeah, you going?" I ask, he nods and says "Yeah all the school is, so who do you know in the show? You could get me their numbers or something," I grimace and he winks, gross no way, "Uh...I don't think you'll want to know," I say remembering the last time I spoke of my actual self, I still have sore shoulders, I don't want any other injuries before the show thank you very much.
"Nah just tell me," I gulp and then nod, "Sophie Lynx and Lively Adams," I say quickly, he then drops his smirk and scowls, "Never mind, I don't want to know," I swear this guy's bipolar or something, "I warned you," he just rolls his eyes, Chris noticing the tenseness between us speaks up, "I heard that we get to meet the models, also Ev are going to go?" I nod while thinking about it, technically it's not lying, I will be there just not watching.
With that, the bell goes and I get up and leave.
