What the hell was that? I'm not a toddler. God...

Jackie looks at me weirdly, "Are you okay?"

Great. Now look what you did. Just say I have a cold or something.

I told you. She makes me feel funny...of course I'm going to act weird.

"Sorry, I'm not feeling too good today," I tell her, trying to act normal by getting all cozy with Jace.
I'm never what I like
I'm double sided
And I just can't hide
I kind of like it
When I make you cry
'Cause I'm twisted up, twisted up

Better.

She nods, "Kay. Well, I gotta go set up. See you there?" She smiles.

Tell her yeah. Duh.

I mentally roll my eyes, I knew that.

"Yeah," I smile, "See ya."

She nods and walks off again, trying to catch up with her sister. In heels.

Yeah...You're horrible at this. I mutter.

Oh shush. I'm trying.

Jace lets go of me and shakes his head, leading the way again.

We start walking again and enter the school, Jackie at the bar making drinks and people dancing and everything. Trevor sees me and I swear mentally.

Uh...Hide behind Jace or something. Do whatever you can to get away from that guy. Go to Jackie. She'll punch his face off if he tries anything. It's happened before.

I duck behind Jace and wrap my arms around him, making he and Rayah look like the couple they are.

"Walk to Jackie," I whisper, "Rayah's orders."

He goes ahead and walks over to the bar.

Ugh. Being so close to him is horrible. He smells like chlorine.

My arms - or Nic's - wrapped around Jace, he walks over to the bar where Jackie is. She smiles at us, resting her arms on the counter. "Can I get you something?"

Water.

I smile politely and ask for a water, Jace ordering the same.

They call for the speeches and I sigh, Go on stage. It's time. Then you can go back to your nervous self around Jackie.

I flash a smile at her and leave Jace and everyone, back in heels, to go up on stage. That Trevor kid is there, smiling at us.

Ugh. So creepy.

Yeah, I know.

Trevor starts out, talking about how we won the war and all that crap, and then it's my turn to speak, everyone staring at me.

Alright, do your magic.

I clear my throat and take a deep breath, smiling. I finish up about the war and junk before starting the talk on graduation.

Question: what happened to the whole valedictorian thing? 'Cause, no offense, you don't seem like that.

Your annoying me, just talk. I mutter, clearly annoyed.

Surround yourself with people who are serious about being writers, and who will tell you, ‘Hey—you can do better than this.’ Who will be critical of your work, but also supportive. And who will not be competitive in a negative way.
