Thread: ~¤ Curse of Loyalty ¤~ ( MissClover X theStig )

Lakota came to school the next day sporting a baggy white sweater with tiny little holes in it that allowed you to barely see that she was wearing a black t-shirt underneath with some band artwork on it. But it was hard to make out what the band was or the artwork for that matter. Her thin legs were covered by black acid washed skinny jeans that disappeared down into her white Doc Martins with black laces. Her wavy hair was pulled back into a low side ponytail, pulling all her hair down over her left shoulder. She carried a beige messenger bag with several pockets and compartments over her right shoulder and held her hand over the top of it. As she walked through the locker court she noticed Clayton talking to Valerie but didn't think too much about it. She tried to smile at him, but he was too occupied to notice, so she just kept moving. She couldn't approach him at school anyhow. It was part of the rules he laid out for her. She got to her shared locker. Since she was a sophomore, she had to share a locker, unlike the seniors who had their own. She opened it and grabbed her book for her upcoming class, Physics. She was a rather smart girl when it came to academics, but not so much in common sense. Just as she was about to close her locker, her best friend and locker mate grabbed the door, stopping her. Hey! Wait a second, I need to grab my English book. Kelsey was a little disorganized and got the top part of the locker, it was easier for her to just toss in her books, whereas Lakota had the small bottom part where how she positioned her books mattered. Kelsey reached in past her and pulled out her English book, several of her other books falling out. Her math book in particular taking a direct hit to Lakota's toe. Lakota yelped out and jumped back pulling her foot back, Ooow! Kelsey! She whined, bending down to help pick up some of the books. This wouldn't happen if you put them in right! She stood up and handed over the books she picked up only to watch them get thrown back in and the door slammed. Lakota knew when she opened the locker again, they would just fall back out. She sighed and rolled her eyes a little. Once again her advice fell on deaf ears. Kelsey started to walk with Lakota since their classes were practically in the same direction. So, you'll never guess what I overheard just a couple minutes ago... Lakota looked to her and attempted to make a guess, That we are going to get school uniforms? Kelsey winced and shook her head, No way! She skipped ahead a bit and turned to face her as she walked backwards, I'll give you a guess... It has to do with the dance coming up. Lakota racked her brain for possible things that Kelsey might have overheard. That they are going to have a renaissance themed dance?! Her voice got a little excited that the idea that she would get to dress up how she enjoyed. She knew that they were debating over that or an Under the Sea theme. Perhaps they came to a decision. Kelsey shook her head and fell back beside Lakota and began to walk normally. Clayton asked Valerie to go and she agreed... I guess after the game Friday they hooked up at the bowling alley. She grinned, loving gossip. Can you believe it! It's like a match made in heaven. Lakota stopped suddenly at the news and when Kelsey only when on about them being a match made in heaven she snapped, No! Clayton isn't like her! She cupped her mouth, realizing she probably shouldn't have said anything. I uh.. I mean, he probably isn't.. uhm.. you know.. into girls like that. Kelsey looked at her funny and pulled her to the side of the hallway. You have a thing for him, don't you? She asked, her smile fading to that of disappointment. She knew Lakota would never get the chance to be with Clayton. He didn't go for the outcasts. It was social suicide. Lakota shrugged, trying to play it off. It's not a big thing or anything. She looked down and bit the corner of her lower lip. It was obvious. Oh my god... She finally put two and two together, figuring it out. That way you look at him in the hallways... You've got a crush on him! Right then the bell rang. I've got to go. She rushed off and headed to her physics class. She was red with embarrassment and anger even. She wasn't going to stand for this... Clayton was hers.
