Laura was having a mental break down. Mean while, with Ross..
Ross: can you and Kelsey stop sucking faces?
He threw a cushion at the couple.
Ryland: ok. Just because you broke up with your girlfriend, doesn't mean I can't have fun with mine.
It really sucked for ross. Because he still loved her.
He loved her so much and he didn't really understand why she would do it.
He didn't want to believe it, but he believed it was the truth.
Ryland:...Laura Marano...never thought of her as a cheater.
Neither did Ross.
Kelsey: Laura Marano?
Kelsey didn't go to their school. She went to Stansville
Ross: you know her?
Kelsey: yeah. She used to go to Stansville......we were best friends until she had to leave because of some issues.
Ryland: on...well, she used to date Ross.
Kelsey: no way...she cheated on you?
Ross: yeah...she did.
Kelsey: no way. She did not...Laura was never like that....I remember her being the sweetest.
Ryland: uh...are we talking about the same Laura?
Kelsey: yeah. Laura Marano, right?...short, cute, dorky....?
Ross: nah. It's not the same Laura.
Kelsey: yeah, that one!
She got up, and pointed at a picture of Ross and Laura that Ross had hung up on long time ago.
Kelsey: that's Laura! Oh my god. I can't wait to see her again.
Kelsey was transferring schools. She had some problems with their physics teacher, and she was nearly a victim of sexual assault.
Kelsey: there's no way she could've cheated on you.
Ross: I saw the proof with my eyes.
Kelsey: but was the sweetest....unless she changed?
.............
Laura: sorry.
She muttered after bumping into a tall guy.
She picked up her books, and finally turned to face him.
He looked really familiar to her...but in a very bad way.
Laura: no way..
???: Laura, oh my god.
He smiled.
Laura:...Derek?
That was the name!
Derek. The guy that made her life a living hell back at Stansville.
Laura: what are you doing here?
Derek: I go here now...pretty sick school.
No.
She thought to her self. This was the guy constantly bullied her, every single day.
Her life was hell because of this guy.
He was the reason she had to leave.
Derek: puberty did you well.
He smirked, as he checked her out.
Laura: get away from me--
Derek: wait.
He grabbed her arm.
Derek: you know....I can always get what I want right?
Laura: you mean, you could always get what you wanted!
Derek: oooh! New Laura has mouth. Me likey.
She was absolutely furious. All the bad memories started coming back. The name calling, the humiliating, the everything.
It made her mad to realise how weak she was, and she couldn't do anything about it.
But she knew that would change. Derek couldn't just show up, and it would be just like the old times. Where she would just let him get away with anything.
Laura: this is my school.
Derek watched as she walked away. And he was SHOCKED.
When did Laura ever get so much confidence?
..........
Derek has been observing her all day.
He was really shocked at how much Laura changed.
She was DROP dead gorgeous. And everything just kinda went her way.
She went from being literally, the BIGGEST loser, to THIS.
But all that didn't really matter to him.
Laura: I really wanna talk to Ross.
Ariana: forget about Ross, Laura!...he's not worth it at all. He was supposed to trust you, and clearly didn't.
Hollie: if you didn't cheat on him, then why does he think you did?
Laura: I don't know....
Ross didn't want to think about Laura.
He acted like he didn't care...or at least didn't show it at school.
Ross: so what where are we hanging today.
"AHHHHHH!!!"
A loud scream filled the cafeteria coming from Laura's table.
Ross and the guys wanted to know what was going on.
Laura: oh my god! Kelsey!
Kelsey: Laura!
......
Laura: oh...my god!
Kelsey: I haven't seen you in like what?..2, 3 years?
They hugged. Kelsey and Laura used to be best friends before. Like...even closer that she was with anyone here.
Laura: guys, this is Kelsey. Kelsey...these are my friends Hollie, Chanel, and Ariana.
Kelsey: oooh...I see my replacements.
She joked.
Laura: we are still best friends. Like...I can't believe you go to school her now!
They both squealed.
Chanel and Ariana didn't really like the new guest. They looked at her with disgust, mostly because she was beautiful, and they were jealous.
Ariana: welcome to our group, Kelsey.
She fake smiled.
Ariana: I think you'll fit in very well.
They were talking for hours. They didn't even go to their next class.
Laura and Kelsey had so much to catch up on.
Kelsey: and then can you believe that Jason Made Tiffany do it?
Stansville was crazy.
Kelsey: glad I finally left that place.
Ariana and Chanel ended up wondering some where else to skip class, while Hollie went to her geometry.
Kelsey: so...I was at my boyfriends house yesterday--
Laura: you have a boyfriend!?
Kelsey: yeah...his name is Ryland....I was there, and I over heard him and his brother talking about you.
Laura:...what?
Kelsey: yeah. His brother Ross said you cheated on him.
She looked at Laura in disbelief, while Laura sighed.
Laura: you're dating Ryland Lynch...
She paused.
Laura: and I never cheated on Ross.
Kelsey: you didn't?
Laura: of course I didn't.
She didn't really want to talk about Ross. Cause it hurt to think about..
She never did anything, and he broke her heart.
Laura: Derek is here too?
She tried to change the subject.
Kelsey: I thought I saw someone that looked like Derek...damn it.
Derek Wood.
Kelsey: to think I left Stansville just to come back to Derek Wood...the worst guy in the world.
Laura: yeah...but it's not gonna be like the way it was at Stansville. So don't worry about him.
Kelsey:.......what do you mean?
Laura: I mean that here, I never have to worry about bullies any more.
Yeah...cause you're the bully.
Kelsey: but now, Derek is here...
Laura: Derek can go fuck off...this is my school. And Derek can't touch me here....trust me.
Kelsey: oh....then that's good.
