The Girl They Judged

Chapter Three

Vanessa's POV

"Hey are you even listening to me?" Jelissa questioned, clearly annoyed.

"Sorry, I kind of zoned out." I said cheekily.

"Okay as I was saying there's a new student and people say he's from New York, that's so cool right?" Jelissa exclaimed.

"Why do you care?" I asked her.

"Just saying." She said as she grabbed her phone out of her bag.

It was time for lunch, I was so darn hungry; what am I saying? I'm always hungry.

We're going to sit in the place we used to sit in Junior high? I barely went inside the lunch hall, I used to just eat outside, didn't want Jelissa to go through what I went through. She was very reluctant of letting me eat alone, but then she let go of asking me to come into the lunch hall with her.

Yesterday we both got lunch detention because apparently we were talking.

Well we were but still.

Jelissa walked towards the table, that too where my brother was sitting. She knows that my brother doesn't like her, she doesn't like him either. They both just hate each other for some reason. I chose not to question both of them on why they hate each other so much.

I didn't hate my brother, he was just too stuck up on being popular- what he doesn't get through his thick skull is that nobody cares, once he leaves high school he's gonna have to realise nobody gives a damn.

"Jelissa, don't you like hate my brother?" I queried, she simply sighed and looked at me.

"If Hunter's sitting there, I'll sit there." Jelissa said as she walked towards the table.

Hunter sure was a bubbly guy, what was a guy like him being friends with my brother?

As we approached the table, I received dirty looks from Laura the leader of the Crayola's.

Your probably wondering who in the heck names a group of people Crayola's.

Well I named Laura's fake group which consists of Laura as the head, Layla as second in command and lastly Molly the stupid third in command.

They are named the Crayola's by me personally because they looked like they over used and messed with their makeup.

I don't care about them, sure it was a mean thing to say about them but honestly I don't think anyone would try to say anything nice about their makeup.

Secondly they're attention seeking girls. Laura scares me the most, behind that full face of make up there was a cunning person who fed off fear.

My brother saw me and waved at me, "Hey." He smiled.

At this very moment I was perplexed.

Why was Tyler waving at me? Didn't he throw harsh remarks at me just a few hours back?

I turned to the left to see...

Hunter who's so cute smiling at me.

For goodness sakes he's so cute.

Xavier just looked at me and then looked away.

Perhaps he was a little overwhelmed knowing that I wasn't the same person he knew back in junior year.

As my brother Tyler went to hug me the Crayola's glares had deepened, like b***h why would I like my brother that's incest.

First of all he's hugging me. This has to be some sort of game, or since I've started to gain a lot of attention he's taking advantage of it.

It makes sense really, knowing Tyler he would grab each opportunity to get attention.

"So how was your day?" Tyler said while pulling a chair out for me.

I sat down on the chair as Jelissa mirrored my action.

"It was okay but do you mind saving my seat because I need to get food." I said to Tyler as I glared at Jelissa because she was eating her sandwich happily.

She could've reminded me to bring food.

"Okay." He said taking my seat.

He's probably burning inside, he would've never spoken to me or give me a single glance at school.

I hope nobody takes my seat.

I walked to the line to find Zach waiting for his lunch.

Isn't the Badboy meant to push in or bunk?

"Fancy seeing you here." Zach said nonchalantly.

"Duh doofus of course I'm here, we have school and I want food." I said sarcastically.

"I meant th-" Zach was about to say something but he was cut off.

"Nessa is that you?" I turn around to see Brandon, we used to date but it really wasn't that serious.

"Brandon?" It was quite surprising, why was he here? It makes sense now, he's the new person from New York.

Meanwhile Zach was glaring at Brandon who was glaring at Zach back.

I mean Brandon did cut Zach off.

Brandon is the most inconsiderate childish person ever, I don't even understand why he joined this school.

"I was offered to model here and I was like why not because I knew that you were going to be there too." Brandon said looking at me, so then why did he seem so confused when he saw me. He knew I was going to be here, he clearly knows how I look.

"Vanessa who's this?" Zach asked curiously.

I was about to reply but Brandon said it for me.

"Her ex-boyfriend." Brandon stated bluntly.

There's really no point because he is just my ex.

"Clearly you're her ex, what's there to show off?" Zach asked Brandon who looked confused.

"I dated her, that's something to show off isn't it?" Brandon asked.

"Not really." I said as Brandon frowned.

"Exactly, you're making yourself look like a i***t; not that you're not already." Zach said as Brandon clenched his fists.

"I'm not stupid, who are you to say that?" Brandon snapped.

"Before you start s**t it's best if you do some research before speaking to me." Zach said.

"Why would I want to do some research? You're probably some fool that thinks he's cool." Brandon said as Zach simply looked at him.

"Haha, that rhymed." Hunter shouted, everyone turned to look at him.

He blushed before muttering a few incoherent words.

"I see, you're those people; sit down little boy before you regret your words." Zach said as Brandon sighed.

"Or else what?" Brandon asked Zach. I don't understand why he's talking back.

"Or else you'll be in deep shit." Zach simply said.

"Dickhead." Brandon said as he grabbed his food as he started to walk off.

Zach stretched he leg out causing Brandon to fall down, landing flat on the ground.

"s**t, I guess you should've looked your way." Zach feigned a look of shock.

The people around the lunch hall just looked at Brandon, some people were laughing like there's no tomorrow while others just looked at Zach.

Brandon left the lunch hall, he's probably dying of embarrassment; falling in the centre of the lunch hall is just sad, really sad if I say so myself.

"All the guys in the world, and you date him." Zach looked at me.

"We weren't technically that serious, I just wanted to try out dating and he seemed to be around." I said as Zach chuckled.

"You choose the desperate ones I see." Zach commented as he grabbed a sandwich and placed it on his tray.

I grabbed a tray and grabbed a slice of pizza. I can't ever reject pizza.

"He wasn't like that at the time, I realised later that he was really clingy." I said as I grabbed a bottle of water.

"I can tell, want to sit with my friends and I?" Zach asked.

I turned around to find my seat taken by one of the Crayola's, the only seat was near Xavier. I decided to sit with Zach.

"Wait I'll be back, let me just tell Jelissa I'm going to sit with you." I said before walking towards the table where my brother and Jelissa were sitting on.

"Jelissa!" I exclaimed as she looked at me.

"Hey." She said as she looked at my tray of food.

"I see you got your food." She smiles cheekily.

"Next time tell me to bring food." I said as Jelissa took a bite of her sandwich.

"Okay." She said.

"I'm going to sit with Zach and his friends." I said as Jelissa nearly choked on her sandwich.

"You're ditching me?" She gasped dramatically. Then I noticed Hunter listening to our conversation.

"Bye Hunter." I said as he looked at me.

"Byeeeeeee I'll miss you!" Hunter playfully wiped the non-existent tears off his face.

"I'll miss you more!" I said dramatically.

Jelissa simply wiggles her eyebrows as I sighed.

I walked towards the table that Zach was sitting down on, there was four guys other than Zach.

"I have four friends, Damien the guy over there, Blake who's eating pizza right now,Matt who is eye raping Blake's Pizza and lastly Adrian the guy who's silently on his phone" Zach said pointing at each person and not leaving out any detail.

They all looked at me as if I was some stranger, I guess I am to them; they've never seen me around before. Adrian didn't look at me, he was glued to his phone.

Gosh his phone is his life but I would be a hypocrite for saying that because my phone is my life too.

"That's Vanessa." Zach said as I sat down next to him, Adrian was on the side of me; still on his phone, ignoring my presence.

Adrian looked like the type of person who gives zero f***s.

"Hey I'm Blake." Blake said flirtatiously.

"Hey I'm Matt." Matt said winking.

"I'm Damien." Damien said in a husky voice.

Why are they all hot?

Gosh I've never met Zach's friends in my life, were they all hidden?

"Hello, I shall not speak because I have to eat this beautiful pizza as you can see." I said taking a bite of the beautiful pepperoni pizza.

"Jeez girl calm down its just food." Blake said vaguely.

"Just food? Repeat that will ya? Ucciditi, il cibo è una cosa molto seria; imbecille." I exclaimed.

"Huh?" Blake was utterly confused.

"Italian?" I turned around to face Adrian.

"Yup." I said as Adrian simply looked at Blake.

"She said, Kill yourself, food is a very serious matter; you imbecile." Adrian said slowly to Blake.

"That hurts Vanessa." Blake said wiping a non-existent tear. Matt and Damien started to laugh as Blake looked gloomy.

"You speak Italian?" Zach enquired.

"I guess you could say that." I said before taking the last bite of my pizza.

"That makes you ten times more hotter." Matt went straight to the point.

"How do I even answer that?" I chuckled.

"I don't know myself." Matt said as I gave him a weird look.

"I'll see you guys later." I said as I grabbed my lunch tray.
