Lesson 24: Never Misjudge The Trouble A Dumb Blonde A.K.A Alice Can Cause
I immediately walked to my locker, ignoring all the stares I was getting. That's what happened if you rode with Joe Smith to school!
I seriously needed to leave the house earlier.
Anyway, I headed straight to my locker, taking the books I would need for my first class, when I heard someone calling me. I turned around and saw Selena walking towards me.
"Hey." I greeted when she reached me, and she smiled.
"'Sup, bestie?" She said, and we linked arms then started walking to our class. I gave her a weird look.
"Why are you such in a good mood today?" I asked her, and she smiled.
"Remember today we get revenge on Maria for what she did to you!" Selena replied and I nodded, pursing my lips.
"Do we really have to? Do you think we're taking it a bit too far?" I asked, and Selena rolled my eyes.
"Remember what she did to you? Trying to ruin our friendship? That went too far. She deserves everything we're going to do to her." Selena replied, and I nodded and smiled.
But if Selena was right, why did I get a feeling we were punishing the wrong person?
******
It was finally lunch time, and Selena and I were sitting on our usual table, chatting about our revenge.
"I can't wait 'till the video plays in Assembly!" She exclaimed, and I laughed at her eagerness.
"How did you get those photos anyway?" I asked her curiously, taking a bite out of my pizza.
You see, our plan was to play a video of Maria's 'before' and 'after' nose job, which she had. Selena somehow had photos of it, and we made them into a video, which was going to play in Assembly, thanks to Derek's awesome hacking skills.
"Well, before me and Maria became enemies, we were best friends, just like you and me now." Selena explained, and I raised my eyebrows.
"When she was 14, since she'd always hated her nose, she decided she was going to get a nose job. Since her parents are filthy rich, they obviously payed for it and she also told me to take before and after pictures of it, and I kept some." Selena admitted.
"I knew I'd probably need them someday, and the day has come!" She finished, and I clapped.
"But still, she didn't publicly embarrass me, she just threatened me a bit, aren't we taking it to a whole new level? And won't she fight back?" I asked, having second thoughts.
"Amber, of course she'll fight back, and we'll be prepared obviously. That brat deserves a taste of her own medicine for once." Selena growled clenching her fists.
"She must've been bad, huh?" I asked quietly. Selena glanced at me.
"You have no idea." She replied, and we both stood up when the bell rang. We dumped our trash in the bin and headed straight to the Assembly hall, where everyone was.
When we were inside, after pushing out way through the massive crowd, we sat down a row behind from where Maria and Alice were sitting.
Alice caught my eye and smirked then whispered something in Maria's ear. Maria looked at us and laughed out loud, smirking back at us and whispering something in Alice's ear and she cackled loudly.
"Ya know, you two laugh like old ladies, right?" Selena shouted at them, making me laugh and they shut up immediately, glaring at us.
"Ya know your hair looks like a mammal made a nest, had babies in it and they all died? Oh, and you smell like it to!" Maria replied, pinching her nose, and Alice laughed. I saw Selena go a bit red.
"At least she doesn't marinate in perfume!" I retorted, and Selena grinned at me.
"At least I'm not a little faker who pretends to be a good-two shoes but bunks off school with my best friend's brother!" Alice returned, smirking when she saw my wide eyes. Then she did something that really shocked me, and scared me a lot.
She brought out her phone and waved it in my face. On it was a picture of me and Derek kissing. The look on her face said it all.
She was the one who was there; who took the photo.
She smirked one last time, then turned around and carried on chatting with Maria. Meanwhile, I was having a mental breakdown. I turned to Selena.
"Did you see Alice's phone? Did you hear what she said?" I hissed, and Selena shook her head
"Why?" She asked, and gulped.
"We've made a terrible mistake, Selena. Maria wasn't the one who took the photo, in fact, she wasn't involved in anything! It was all Alice!" I exclaimed, and Selena scoffed.
"Puh-lease, that girl is the dumbest blonde I've ever met. How could she come up with something so genius?" Selena asked.
"Okay, look at this number. It is Alice's number!" I said, bringing out my phone and showing Selena.
"Wait a minute." Selena brought out her phone and compared the numbers, since she still had Alice saved as a contact, being too lazy to remove it.
"Oh. My. Gosh." Selena muttered, and started panicking like me.
"Maria will terminate us! She will destroy us! She will ruin us!" Selena cried, and I started biting my nails, something I only did when I was really scared or nervous.
"I had second thoughts about doing this as well! But I kept on telling myself she deserved it, but she doesn't! We have declared war, against her, and it's too late to back up now." Selena exclaimed, shaking her head, and slumping in her seat when the Head master came on to the stage.
"Good afternoon everyone! I have an important announcement to make, but before that, we are going to watch a very important video, sent to us by," He paused and looked at the paper he was holding.
"Mr. Begone." He frowned, but shrugged and smiled again. If we weren't in the situation we were in now, I would've laughed. Mr. Beogne? Really Derek?
"Now, sit back in your seats and enjoy!" He said, and walked off the stage, while everyone was clapping.
"Okay, I know what we have to do. We will move to Australia, get fake identities, pretending to be a married couple, Mr. and Mrs. Begone. Don't worry, I'll be the man." Selena whispered, and I glared at her.
"This isn't funny!" I snapped.
"Okay, let's just hope there will be some technical difficulties or something." Selena suggested, and we both crossed out fingers.
But unfortunately, the video started playing.
"It's over. We're done." Selena whispered, if possible, slumping lower in her eat and covering her face in her hands.
"There are lots of fakes in this school," A voice said started, "But there's that one main girl in the 11th grade, Maria Snow. How is she fake, you ask? Well, two years ago, this same girl had a nose job." Everyone gasped, and the Head Master and the technician were hurriedly typing on the computer connected to the screen, trying to make it stop, but Derek was too good.
"Proof? Here are some before and after photos." And they showed. Selena and I were practically sitting on the floor.
I heard a loud gasp and sat up, then saw it was Maria. She turned around and glared at me, with such hatred that it terrified me. She had tears streaming down her cheeks and her face was red, probably from embarrassment and anger, since everyone in the hall was staring at her and whispering.
"I will finish you." She stated, loud enough for me and Selena to hear. I didn't want to show her I was scared, so I just shifted my gaze to the floor, even though I was terrified beyond capacity.
I looked at Alice, who was eerily calm and still watching the video. She must've seen me staring at her, because she turned around, looked me straight in the eye, and said, loud enough for only me to hear:
"I win." Then slowly smirked at my scared expression and turned around to comfort Maria.
"Can you hear what she's saying?" Selena whispered in a shaky tone, and I listened carefully to what Maria was saying.
"I will terminate them. I will destroy them. I will ruin them." She kept on chanting over and over again, while Alice patted her back.
"I know you will. My work here is done." She muttered the last part, relaxing in her seat. Before I ran out of the hall, I looked at one last person. When Joe and I made eye contact, what he did broke my heart.
He looked straight past me, like I wasn't there.
