The Boy Is Mine- by Anneka

"Thats the new boy?!" Natasha said disgusted. "Uh-huh. Problem Tash?" Rochelle grinned. Natasha hesitated and pulled Rochelle and whispered, "He's ugly!" Rochelle smiled at that and said her thoughts out too loud. "Thats good!" Natasha glared at her, curious. "And whats that supposed to mean Rochelle?" she demanded. Rochelle simply shrugged her shoulders and replied, "They're always cute and always become yours and you always hit it off with them, sometimes it's pretty embarrassing you know!" Natasha defended her self straight away. "How could you say that? And gimme one example, please, of me hitting it off with someone!" Rochelle found that very easy to answer. "First there was some nice guy who you dumped flat on his face after seeing David. You two kissed every time you saw each other but only a peck! Then when Michael came you dumped David and flirted like never before, with Michael. Then Ben=85 Oh that was bad! Then when Scott" Rochelle paused. She went through a very hard time trying to get over the fact that Scott was unavailable because of her best friend. Rochelle knew she would never see anyone as gorgeous as Scott Robinson and she knew Natasha would never leave a lovely guy like that unless she was completely stupid, and Rochelle wished she was. Natasha's voice interrupted Rochelle's thoughts. "Why did you suddenly stop? Go on hurry up, lecture me!" "Oh yeah, sorry I was kinda thinking how you always smooch Scott every time you see him. Your lips get worse and more wanting for kisses each boyfriend, and it's so embarrassing!" Natasha burst out laughing and shook her head. Rochelle didn't find it as amusing. Infact she was very unhappy thinking about how much she had wanted Scott. It was the same thing with every new guy, and she always wished it wasn't. She would never forget what happened that month though. "Nothing is embarrassing darling, when you're in love." Natasha said dreamily. Rochelle doubted that, but soon she found out it was true.

The long bell rang and they went to their form rooms. On the way, Supra, the leader of the geeks, pushed past Rochelle and was careful not to push past Natasha because Natasha was really popular and Rochelle = wasn=92t as popular, but she still was very popular. "Look at you stupid geeks. Always off to class before the second bell. I mean get a life. And especially you Jemima! We're in year 11!" Rochelle poked Supra and went back to Natasha. Supra noticed her mistake and tried to apologise but only received, "Can you not bloody understand English! Make like a nuanny and piss OFF!" Supra got the message and ran away. Then Rochelle went back to Natasha who was smiling. "You love doing that you evil thing!" she said. Rochelle put on the face that Natasha did earlier, "Nothing is evil darling, when you're popular enough!" they started giggling and Rochelle stopped instantly as she saw Scott and her heart started beating faster.=20 Scott covered Natasha's eyes with his hands and said with his lovely sweet caring voice, "Guess who?" Natasha seemed impatient and didnt answer. "Will this give you a clue?" Scott said smiling. He reached down to her neck and gently kissed it. Natasha spun around and embraced with Scott. Rochelle turned around, as she didn't like the scene she was seeing. "I love you Scott" she heard Natasha whisper. That sent tears to Rochelle's eyes but the second bell saved her and no one saw her crying. Rochelle noticed that Scott was in a hurry but Natasha's lips stuck on to him like glue! Of course Scott didn't mind. Doesn't that girl have any shame? Rochelle thought, she had to break this little love scene fast so she cried out aloud, "The second bell went years ago Tash! You know how spasticated Ms. Poiuytrew is?" Natasha finally managed to UN-glue her self from Scott. "See you after Registration Hun!" Natasha grinned. Rochelle rolled her eyes and laughed a fake laugh.

They made their way to class and Rochelle kept looking back at Scott and his troubled face. "What's up with Scott, Tash?" Rochelle asked worried. Natasha shrugged, "Who, my man? Troubled?" Natasha laughed, "He asked me who the new boy was! He thinks I might go off with him! Poor love! He's so sweet and gullible and cute!" Rochelle frowned. "He's not gullible is he? He's" it pained Rochelle to say it but she was defending Scott and it was the truth "He's in love, deep love!" Natasha smiled. "Of course! How did I not realise it?" Rochelle was about to say something when she paused as they had just entered the classroom. Then she whispered, "Will y-you ever, like, uh leave him meaning Scott?" Rochelle took a deep breath and slowly let it out waiting for an answer. Natasha looked at the new boy for a while and turned back to Rochelle shaking her head. "Nah! Not for this year any way." She laughed. Rochelle didn't think she could take it and she slipped into her seat. She thinks it's all a game, a joke! I wish she would know how it feels to have no boyfriends. Not everyone is a walking girlfriend-machine! Rochelle thought angrily. She glanced at the new boy and she could tell that he'd been looking at her before. He wasn't that bad to tell the truth, but compared to Scott and Ben of Natasha's boyfriends, he was a bit ugly. He didn't look like someone that had just come out of a magazine but for a normal boy he looked the kind of person you might fancy for quite a while. It was just that her school was full of gorgeous boys.

After registration Rochelle slowly packed her things while Natasha was talking to Dean, one of the most popular guys in the class. Suddenly, Rochelle felt a tap on her shoulder and she jumped a little. She was surprised to see the new boy holding her Homework Diary. She knew she put it in her bag and it seemed the new boy took it out as an excuse to talk to her. "Uh you dropped this," he said uncertain. Rochelle sighed, Typical=92 she thought but she thanked him anyway. That was his chance to say something, "Hey, I'm Danny Carter, nice to meet you." "Rochelle, Hi." Danny smiled and nodded meaning to say okay. Pretty smooth, Rochelle thought to herself. She was feeling a bit better now even though she could tell something was stirring up between them. Of course she wouldn't mind having a boyfriend once in her life but it would be impossible, she realised, when she truly loved Scott. Natasha had finished her conversation with Dean and she went to Rochelle and sighed, "Dean's so obnoxious! Luckily my Scott isn't. He's so perfect for me don't you think?" Rochelle's mood was completely spoilt now. She asked her self that one same question over and over again, why am I her best mate? then Natasha smiled and asked, "That knew boy was talking to you. What's this about?" Rochelle was frowning really hard. "I dropped my book; he picked it up; I said thanks; big deal; does it really matter?" Natasha smiled even more. "I know that's not all of it darling, you and the new boy are on to" "His name is Danny, and I said it's no biggie!" Rochelle shouted. But Natasha went on, "You seem to know his name. I think" Rochelle interrupted angrily, "I don't give a toss what you think, Natasha, I told you so just sod off woman!" Natasha knew she was angry. The complete wrong timing is always when Supra seemed to enter the scene. "How do you know she's angry with you?" Supra squeaked. Natasha tried not to strangle her and calmly said, "Look Supra, sheran away and she called me by my full name, do you hear her saying that often?" Supra thought for a while, "She calls you Tash usually." Supra said. Natasha rolled her eyes and replied, "Um, Supra, I'm kinda aware of that" Supra nodded and went to History, as she couldn't be late. She and Jemima rushed off to class and Natasha sighed, "Where is that girl!" Rochelle took off her crocodile clip and tugged at her tangled hair with her purple Miss Selfridges hairbrush. She was in front of the mirror in the girl's toilets. "If she wasn't alive, I would be the most popular girl in the class! If she wasn't alive I would have Scott!" Rochelle murmured. "Oh my bloody hair is so matted!" She brushed her hair and tugged until a hair came out from its root. "OW!!!" she threw her brush, frustrated and it landed on the mirror.
