They sat in the principle's office.“She started it,”Cami said.Ofcourse she would say that.“You attacked me.Did you expect me to sit there like some defenceless fool,”Cheryl said angrily.“Heey watch your tone young lady,”the principal said.
“Principal Franklin as you can see, she is the problem.You've known me since I was a baby,I don't get into fights unless I am provoked,”she said.“And by provoked you mean jealous? Principal Franklin you might not have known me since I was a kid.But I have never caused or started a fight since I set foot in this school,”she said. “What was this fight about?”Mr.Franklin asked.Cami was silent.“She attacked my bestfriend this morning and so I was defending her.At lunch break she attacked me.She thought I am the kind of girl whom she can bully around,”Cheryl said.“What?I am a bully? No I am not. Stop throwing accusations my way.Your best friend got me drunk and started kisPeach turned around shocked.She was still holding Cheryl's hand.Hermione took a step forward.Until she was very very close to Peach.Staring right into her eyes.“I said let go,”she said this time slowly.Peach let the girl go.“Wh...what..ar...”she struggled to speak.Hermione smiled.“Good! That's the reaction I expected.Its been so long,”she said.Peach took hold of herself.“Well,this is my school.I own it and you can't..”she said as if that would somehow scare her.Hermione looked at her and smiled.“I don't care what you own.Watch yourself about this daughter because if you ever lay a hand on her,I promise you will not like how I handle you”she said and then turned to say hi to Winter and got into the office with her daughter.“Mum,how comes you know her?”Cami asked.Her mum looked frustrated,still in shock.They followed in with Winter's dad joining few minutes later.__________________________________ She was pacing up a
Cheryl was going to class.Yvette stopped infront of her with Cass closely behind.Yeah there were rumours about these two.“I hear your mum is some rich madame,”she said.“I hear you dad is some corrupt mayor,”Cheryl answered.Yvette smiled.“I love your humour.You should invite me sometime,I'm known to be lovable guest,”she said then walked away. She started to leave.“Hey,I'm sorry,”he said holding her hand. “Don't be,”she said.“No really,I am.I am sorry I didn't defend your friend,for not standing for honesty.I wanna make it up to you and Winter, tonight.Let me take you girls out on a date,”he said.He sounded like he meant it.It was genuine.“It had better be exciting,”she said and started walking away.“Thank youuu.You won't regret it,”he shouted after her. In class Cheryl pretty much avoided contact with Cami as much as she could.She didn't want trouble at all with the girl.“Heeey waiting for that invite princess,”Yvette said
They dropped Winter off first then he drove towards Chery'l house.“Did you mean it?”he asked her.She looked at him blankly.“Those words you told me when you had that fight with my sister,”he clarified. “Yes.I don't say things I don't mean.But they were said out of anger and to be honest you'd taken a low road,”she said.They were silent for a while.“You don't understand.She is my twin sister.And I know she is a handful but trust me Cami is a good person,”he said.She smiled sarcastically.“Yeah right,”she said. “Cass I don't know the first thing about having a twin or all that kind of stuff.But I know for a fact about standing up for the truth.You think if Winter was in the wrong I wouldn't tell her?”she asked.“Yes you do have to tell her.But in all honesty would you go against her in public?”he asked.She was silent.“Exactly.Look I am not a bad person just cause I stuck up for my sister.If we were friends I would have done the
“Good job with that new rich bitch,”Cami told Cass.He rolled his eyes.“So what have you learnt about her so far? Any dirt I can use to blackmail or expose her and make her life miserable?”she asked excitedly sitting on the table.They were at lunch.“No nothing yet,”he said still texting on his phone.She hated when he did this.“Did I do something wrong or what?”she asked.He looked up.“Incase you haven't noticed I have my own stuff going on.Excuse me for not carrying out your plans to destroy somebody you are just jealous and afraid of,”he said and with that he stood up to leave.“Whats this about?You are being edgy with me for no reason.If you had a fight with mum or dad or one of your hoes, don't take it out on me,”she said seeming very hurt.He looked at her.He didn't know why he was particularly irritated with his sister today.“You think everything is always about you? Get off your head Cami.Not everything is about you,”he said then left.She stood tr
Yvette was the mayor's daughter so as expected she came from a posh home.She was at the door to personally welcome everyone."Oh you made it.Damn ice queen,you came dressed to kill,"she said looking her up and down.She had worn a plunging V-neckline that dropped all the way to show enough of her chest.The black bodycon dress went down to her thighs with panels of mesh placed in strategic location to keep the thirsty needing more.She'd won knee length laced shiny black heels."Where are all the servants?"she asked to divert her attention."Not home today.But honey let's take a photo tonight.Even I can't resist you tonight,"she joked.Cheryl smiled at her.She held Winter's hand and they got in.Cami was the first to see them.She rolled her eyes."Girl did you think this was the red carpet?"she mocked."Oh Cami,I don't have time for you tonight.Compliment her girl when she's in style,"she said sweetly."Excuse me,"Winter said uncomfortably and started to walk away.Cami held her hand and
She saw it.Brickley circled a couple of times.That had to catch her attention.The book looked like an old journal.It was a scribbled contract.The name Diana Hernandez was there too.She read through.It seemed Brickley had bribed this Diana lady into selling him or her something.She took a photo of that page.She read a few more pages until the last page where there were writings.There was a phone number there and the words threat and Newvalley High.She took another photo.She looked at the papers on the desk.Copies of a title deed.The school's title deed with two different names on each.She took a photo of that too.She looked at some scribblings on a clean sheet just laying there.Brickley .Ellie Brickley dead.Affair.Coverup for murder of own child. Her hands were shaking.“My God,are you okay?”Cass asked.She jumped.The paper fell down.“I...yeah...I am..I need to leave,”she said still struggling to gain composure.He put th
Hermione was doing some digging.She wanted to find all the dirt on the Brickley's before she could open up cases against them and so far so good.She particularly wanted them to pay for her daughter's death.She had the money now.Jim and Peach could not twist the law not when she could buy justice at any price.She hadn't met Jim yet and that was a good sign.She hoped he would never figure out Cheryl was his.Cheryl had never asked about her dad,ever and she could only hope she never does.She didn't want to have to lie to her.She was very concerned at how close her daughter was becoming to Brickley's son.She wanted to make sure nothing happened between those two,she just didn't know how to make it stop.She didn't know if the Brickley's would use their children to hurt her or her daughter.She didn't want to involve the children at all.Her phone rang.It was her secretary.An appointment had been set yesterday by an anonymous person.The person had arrived
Cass and Cami were arguing.Nobody was in class except the both of them.“Well find somebody else to do this for you,I can't do it,”Cass said.“Why not? Do you want to help me bring her down or not?”She asked.“I have done my investigation and she is really a good person,”he said.“Thats bullshit.Why don't you want to help me.Is this still about dad?”she asked.“No its not.She is my friend.And by doing what you are asking me I'll be hurting her.I love you Cami and I don't want to be in the middle of this when it explodes,”he said.“She is your friend? Wow,I feel betrayed.I am your twin sister,”she said in disbelief.“I...I...I really think I like her.I can't hurt her.I have to stop.I am sorry I won't help you,”he said just as Cheryl and Winter got into class.The atmosphere was tense.“Well you have picked your side.I now see dad's point of view and I side with him.You are just another embarassing looser,”she said. He looked down.Not
