Revenge served Cold
Chapter Three
Soft winds blew through my hair when Trevor opened the door to the school for me. I looked at his smiling face and drew in a deep breath, squaring my shoulders.
"Hey, Nora, you look like you're getting ready to murder someone," Trevor said, placing his hand on my shoulder. "Relax."
I smiled at the irony of that and lifted one eyebrow up at him. Turning my sights on the school, I strutted in, Trevor following suit.
I'd like to say that everything happened in slow motion like it does in the movies, but truthfully it all happened very fast, so fast that I almost didn't get to enjoy it.
Bunches of people were standing around the main hallwall, mostly separated into circles. It seemed as though all the different types of people grouped together, like cliques. I had thought high school didn't really have cliques. It turns out this school would be better than I'd imagined.
As I walked in, each face turned towards me, an exceptional amount of mouths dropping. I smiled, pleased, and kept my head high, walking past the groups of useless douchebags.
Trevor stopped somewhere along the way, but I kept walking until I heard my name called.
"Nora? Holy hell, that is Nora!"
I turned slowly, my brow furrowed. I couldn't tell exactly where it'd come from until a girl with light brown, dreaded hair stepped in front of me. I pursed my lips.
Crossing my arms, I stood there staring at her. "Rose."
"Damn Nora, you've really changed. What the hell did they do to you in California?" she asked, looking me up and down. I scoffed at her, turning to walk the other direction. There was someone standing in front of me and I walked straight into them, our heads colliding.
"Ugh! Can you move?" I said angrily, rubbing my forehead. The girl had bouncy, red hair and she turned around.
"God, watch where you're going, bitc--Nora? Nora Clarke?" the girl said, her eyes widening. My angry stare turned into a smirk.
"Corey Westbrook," I replied. "It's so nice to see you again!" I said sincerely.
She looked at me incredulously. "It's like you're a totally different person!"
Three girls came up behind her, one I didn't know, the other two I remembered as Amber and Taelyn. The third girl looked slightly younger and had long, dark hair. "Nora, I'm sure you remember Amber," Corey said, pointing to a blonde. "And Taelyn, as well," and pointed to the darkskinned girl.
I nodded, smiling pleasantly at them. These b//tches won't know what hit them. "And this here is little Ellie, sort of my prodige," she said, smiling fondly at the dark haired girl. I rolled my eyes.
Trevor came up behind Corey and put his arm around her. My eyes turned glassy. I'd spent tons of time practicing facial expressions so I could hide my emotions. But I could have sworn Trevor was going to be mine.
As I mulled it over, I thought it was a good thing. Something else to add to the long list of revenge--stealing her boyfriend. I smiled inwardly.
"Trev, hey," I said, placing a hand on his collar. "Glad to see we all know each other," I said mischeviously. Corey's blue eyes shot out daggers.
"Hey Nora!" Trevor said cheerfully. "There's a party tonight, kicking off the start of school. You can come if you'd like."
I grinned up at him, grabbing a pen from my bag. Taking his hand, I wrote my number there. "Text me the details later," I said with a wink.
Wild House Parties: Careful girls, you might not want to raise the roof too high tonight, I hear there's a storm brewing and you're bound to catch some rain.
