the movies with the girls.”
“Oh yeah?” Rob said. “Us, too.”
“Us who?”
“The guys,” Rob laughed. “The team!”
Just then the bell rang, and kids began
dispersing from their circles of friends, and into their classrooms.
“Gotta go,” Rachel said. “See ya later.”
“Have a good day,” Rob said.
The rest of the morning flew by for
Rachel. She couldn’t help but think about Rob in the classes that followed
their conversation. She replayed their conversation, over and over in her head,
and was shocked each time. She couldn’t believe that he still wanted to talk to
her and that he cared enough to ask her weekend plans.
For the first time in the past 36 hours,
Rachel felt like everything would be OK. She’d worried about what it would be
like to see Rob again after everything that had happened, but it turned out to
be totally fine, and Rachel could see the light at the end of the tunnel. Now,
all she had to do was make her parents see the light, and stop blaming her and
punishing her for everything under the sun.
Rachel looked down at her watch: it was
nearing lunchtime. She could feel her stomach pang with hunger, and hear its
growls. She hadn’t had much of an appetite since Wednesday night, and it was
finally catching up to her. She’d never felt so hungry in her entire life.
She couldn’t wait for the bell to ring
so she could meet up with her friends in the cafeteria.
Chapter Ten
As Rachel entered the cafeteria, her
friends were nowhere to be seen. She looked around and then looked down the
hall, but it was empty. She felt like she was going to die she was so hungry.
She entered the cafeteria and sat down at her usual table. She opened up her
brown paper bag and pulled out her PB&J and Arizona Iced Tea. She couldn’t
wait to sink her teeth into her sandwich.
She looked around the cafeteria as she
sat there eating her lunch alone. She hadn’t really spent time looking at all
the tables since the first day of school, but now that she was alone again, she
couldn’t help but watch people.
She saw the jock table, the cheerleader
table, and the nerd table. Everyone was eating and talking. She hoped that the
subject of everyone’s conversation had shifted from the fight to other things.
Just then, Rachel felt her table move.
She felt a jolt, as someone sat down next to her. She looked to her left and
was shocked. It was Arielle— looking as mean and mad as ever.
“Well look what we have here,” Arielle’s
voice rang out. “It looks like the criminal herself is all alone in the
cafeteria.” Arielle paused. “What happened? You don’t have friends anymore?”
she cackled.
“Leave me alone,” Rachel said.
“Keep dreaming darling. I’m on your case
now. First you stole the guy I liked and now this. You really don’t know when
to stop do you?”
“What are you talking about? I didn’t do
anything.”
“Yeah right— if by nothing you mean
taking out the top players of the AHS football team.”
“It wasn’t my fault, Arielle. Now go
away.”
“I’m not going anywhere. I own this school— which you wouldn’t know because you’re the new girl. But you
better learn, because anyone who doesn’t know, messes with the wrong person. I
may look nice, but deep down, I can make your life a living hell.”
Rachel stared at her in shock. She didn’t
know what to say. The two sat there in silence staring at each other for a
minute and then Arielle spoke. “You better watch your back. If you so much as
look the wrong way, you’re dead.”
Arielle slowly got up from the table and
dumped Rachel’s Arizona Iced Tea all over her sandwich. “Have a good day!”
Arielle sneered.
Arielle glared at Rachel as she walked
away from the table and mouthed, “watch it,” as she put her two fingers to her
eyes and pointed back at Rachel.
Rachel sat there, stunned and scared.
Where were her friends when she needed them? She couldn’t believe what had
the movies with the girls.”
