"That's not how you do it!" Simone yelled as we wrestled on the ground in my backyard, me clutching her hands - keeping her stranded.
"Oh, yeah?" I chuckled. "Then why am I winning?"
"You're cheating, Lila!" she insisted, "Let me go!"
I giggled, enjoying having beaten her, then I let her go.
She jumped to her feet and dusted her pants off. "You're stupid, Lila! I don't like playing with you."
I made an insulted o-shape with my mouth. "We're best friends! Besides, it was your idea!" I pushed her away gently.
"Don't touch me! I'll be your Alpha someday!" she squealed. "You know what, you're uninvited from my birthday party."
She gave me a nasty look and strutted towards my house.
I watched her in anger, seeing my Dad come out, his face pale. I'd never seen him look that bad before.
