"Oh. My. God. Shut your fucking face. How have you not seen 'Mean Girls '????" Screams Alice from the bed. Currently we are all sitting on the bed in the guest toom, deciding on what movie to watch next. So far we have seen 'Pitch Perfect ' , '27 Dresses ', and 'DUFF '. All my favorite movies, and all (coincidentally) my friends ' too. Oh, it 's also about 2 a.m.

"Sorry, honestly I just never got the chance. Camden 's friends were over , or my friends and I were doing something else. We just never got around to it." Lauren defends herself.

"Well we are about to change that! Everyone has to see 'Mean Girls ' for crying out loud!!" Kya argues, before shoving popcorn in her mouth. She looks like one of those monkeys at the zoo, that …show more content…

I sit through 97 minutes of a movie I have seen about 40 thousand times. Except I still end up marveling at how Cady was just accepted into 'The Plastics '. Why can 't all schools be like that? Every school has popular people. And every school has the people no one wants to sit with. Watching Janis explain to Cady about all the cliques, I could see in my head who would go to each table at my school. I know that 's sad, but it 's true. Seeing Cady change for a guy is also realistic. It is completely wrong, and every girl would say 'don 't change for some guy ', but we all do. At some point in our life, we do something for a guy, whether we are aware of it or not. Although, I think my favorite part of the movie, was when they played pranks. That might be a cliché, but honestly, I love that part. To watch Janis, Cady, and Damien all come up with and pull pranks without the principle seeing is just mind blowing sometimes. Kids at my school do that once in a while, but, they are going legit here. At least Cady knew who she was by the end of her year. I still don 't know who I am. I 'm a high school Senior, I get good grades, I 'm athletic, I have never been in love, I want to be a pharmacist. That 's all me. Do …show more content…

"Oh." Is about all I could manage. Even that came out strangled. I 'm really hoping she didn 't hear that I sounded like I was a smoker.

"You ok Mack?" She tries to get a better look at my face through the darkness.

" Yeah yeah, um, sorry I was zoning out a bit. You said Pikewood?" I respond, dazed. I shake my head a vit, trying to get some thoughts out of my head. I can 't have visions of what would happen to them, swimming around in my head like that.

"Yeah, we went to Pikewood, but we know a lot of people at Kentucky Falls. Well, Camden does. I just know the sluts he brings home, watching them run out of his room the next morning." She shrugs and runs back to the screen slightly. I did catch her side glance at me.

"Huh. Well, you 're welcome to hang with us. How long have you been in Kentucky Falls, and Pikewood?" I had about a billion questions spilling from my head, but I didn 't want it to sound like an interrogation.

"We started at Pike for freshman year, but our dad got a new job in Marksville. Except then my parents got divorced and my mom got remarried. So we moved back here because she never quit her job here. It was only 2 towns away so, she just left early in the morning. So we actually know
