I know I haven't posted here in a long time, but I'm baaack (actually, I was never gone, just taking a break.)! Anyway, you said you wanted more, so here it is!
Background Info: The girls, Rachel, Alexz, Jordan, and Sara, have been at Eastland for 3 months. (You might wanna read TPSIP for more info.)
(((Cafeteria)))
(Mrs. Garrett is in the kitchen. The girls come in. Alexz and Rachel are arguing... as usual.)
A: It wasn't a fair debate!
R: You're just mad because your team lost! And mine won! (Tosses hair.)
MG: (Comes in.) Girls! Can you stop fighting for five minutes?
S: Mrs. Garrett, you don't know what you're asking!
J: Yeah! If Alexz and Rachel didn't fight, it would ruin the pizazz of going to school here! (The phone rings.)
MG: (Shakes her head, laughs, and goes to answer the phone.) Hello, Eastland School! (Pause.) Jo! I haven't talked to in so long! (Pause.) Yes, I'll get her! Hold on a second. (Calls.) Alexz, it's your mom!
A: Really? Okay, I'll get it! (Points at Rachel.) We'll finish this later. (Rachel whimpers and Alexz goes to the phone.) Mom? It's me! Fine. How are-- (Face falls.) That's awful! No, I understand. Yeah. No, it's okay. It was fun while it lasted. Love you, too. 'Bye. (Hangs up and goes back into cafeteria.)
R: Are you gonna hurt me?
A: (Quietly.) No. Could I talk to Mrs. G?
S: Sure.
J: Go ahead.
MG: Girls? Blow. (Points upstairs. The girls leave.) What's wrong?
A: Um... My dad lost his job today and my parents can't afford to send me here anymore. I'm leaving next semester. Back to the Bronx.
MG: Oh, Alexz. You must feel terrible.
A: Yeah, I do.
MG: Let's go home. (Calls upstairs.) Girls!
R: We're coming, Mrs. Garrett!
A: You think we could put off tellin' the girls till I'm more used to it?
MG: Sure.
(((That night -- Girls' Bedroom)))
R: (Brushing her hair.) 990, 991, 992, 993, 994, 995, 996-- (Wrinkles her nose in the mirror.) 997, 998, 999, 1,000.
A: (Looks up from book.) Rachel, can I ask you something?
R: (Starts putting on face cream.) Mmm... What?
A: Do you ever get tired of looking at yourself?
R: (Isn't phased at all.) It's better than looking at you.
S: (Like Nat used to say.) Oooh!
A: Yeah, well, next semester you won't have to.
J: What?
R: (Turns around to face Alexz.) What are you talking about?
A: I'm leaving Eastland next semester.
J: That's awful!
S: We'll miss you!
R: Sara!
S: I thought I should say it and get it over with. I'm not good with goodbye's. Remember how I was when my mom left?
R: Sara, you clung to her leg and refused let go.
S: I rest my case.
I g2g. What do you think so far?
