My Clique (Episode #5)

Stacey's heart beat faster than it ever had before. She knew she should run to class immediatly to escape human embarrassment but something in Jessica's face made her want to stay. "So......am I?" she asked again, almost in a whisper. Sally gave a small smile. "Yup," was all she said. Stacey grinned so hard that her cheeks began to burn. "Really?!" Jessica and Amy actually smiled they gave her a hug. "Of course you are, Stace. You're one of us now." "So does that me i can-"
"But," said Sally, "There's one other thing you need to do. You'll need to get a DATE for Jessica's party. He needs to be someone cool, okay?" Stacey's face fell but she tried not to show it. "But i don't know any boys!"
Jessica smiled. "Then you'd better start 'bird' watching," she said with a smile.

Stacey was sitting on her swing trying to watch boys before school started. She slipped on her over sized sun glasses and slicked on some lip gloss. Looking out of the corner of her eye at a boy,she saw that he was talking to three girls. Too flirty, she thought. She kept looking. Then her eyes settled on one boy. He was sitting underneath a tree with his nose in a book. He had long wavy blond hair. As she stared at him, he looked up at his book and his gaze met hers. He smiled at her and she blushed so hard that he grinned. Suddenly the bell rang, and they both stood up at the same time. The boy walked over to her as she gathered her stuff. "Hi," he said. "Hi," she said back giggling. "I'm Jared. What's your name?"
"I'm Stacey." she said.
Jared smiled at again and bean to walk her to her classroom.
"Where are you sitting at lunch?" Sally asked Stacey. Stacey added a carton of milk to her tray. "I'm sitting with this boy i met. And-" "What's his name?" Sally asked as she sat down at a table. "Jared and he's SO cute!"
"Wait! Jared?" Sally said dropping her fork onto the floor. Just then Jessica and Amy sauntered over wearing identical outfits; just two different colors (an extra large sweatshirt, tight black jeans, and high heels). Jessica had her hair tied back from her face while Amy left her hair down. "Heyyy!" they cried. "Stace," Amy said, "Have you found any cute boys yet?"
"Jessica, she found Jared!" Sally blurted. Jessica and Amy's eyes widened so wide that they looked like they were going to pop out of their head. "What, is there anything wrong with him?" Stacey asked opening her milk carton, forgetting her lunch with Jared. "Stacey," Amy said. "That's Jessica's ex-boyfriend.
