"It’s okay babe, you can always burn it off with sex," Josh Brecker said, giving the infamous double eyebrow raise. He wasn’t Candace’s boyfriend but he called every girl "babe" and guy "dude."

Candace pushed him off the stage. He quickly brushed it off and sat down the bottom of the steps, trying to look like the push never happened.

"FUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!" Alice’s scream was overheard as a soft scream and Tina’s ears picked up the sound. She looked around for the owner of the voice and ended up looking at Bette. She was talking into a banana. Making sure Henry wasn’t watching, Tina started to stare at Bette.

Her mouth moved so eloquently as she talked. Tina couldn’t hear what Bette was saying but she knew it was something funny as Bette’s lips curved into a smile. She was dressed in a cashmere sweater and her hair looked a little unruly but still made her look good.

"Tina!" Henry called out, creating a wind-shield wiper with his arm in front of her.

"Huh?" Tina looked at him and tried to hide her anger.

"You okay baby, you look lost."

"Yeah, just thinking about the football game on Friday. I’m trying to remember the cheers," Tina lied. She had so much practice at lying that you couldn’t tell the difference. She was thinking about her cheers a few minutes ago until Alice yelled.

Henry shrugged and went back to finishing off his piece of pizza.

Alice had her head to the table. She looked pale. Almost like a vampire. Bette had stopped joking around when she saw that Alice was in deep pain. None of them carried medication to ease the pain because it was against school rules. They decided to just shut up and eat. Dana tried to spoonfeed Alice but with her mouth parallel to the floor, it was impossible.

"Dana?" Alice asked, not moving her head from its comfortable position. "Can you carry me to the nurse’s office?"

Bette, Jenny, and Shane watched Dana’s face turn into a tomato. It was like watching a romantic comedy.

"Sure, hang on," Dana said. She threw her garbage away and pulled Alice’s chair back. Alice lifted her head, her hair was all over the place.
