As soon as Colleen left the classroom, the gossiping started.
“She’s so dramatic, like she has the body of a 10 year old, puberty ain’t hitting her flat sss until she’s 21” said Carly,
Lucy giggled and covered her mouth with her hand “for real, like she’s such a baby, did you like see her outfit today it totally looks like her mom picked it out”
Ricky felt weird about Lucy and Carly mocking Colleen, whenever he or his friends were making fun of Colin it would be to his face and it would be a joke, but to criticise her body and clothes when she wasn’t here felt weird.
Carly noticed Ricky’s silence “so Nicki what’s ya thoughts on Colleen’s period”
Ricky wanted to stand up for Colleen but he also didn’t want to raise suspicion “she might just be a late bloomer”
Lucy smirked “she better hope puberty catches her because having your titties still in a training bra at 14 is tragic”
Lucy and Carly started snicking while Ricky sat awkwardly.
Eventually they both stopped laughing but their insults won’t over yet, they noticed a girl sitting in a front row called Tracy Lang had gotten a short hair cut and was wearing masculine clothes.
“Oh my god look at the state of Tracy” said Lucy.
Carly stuck her head up to get a look at Tracy “pfft look at that hair, she totally looks like a dude”
“And that white tank top, totally makes her look like a wife beater” said Lucy.
Carly smirked “but the worst part is that yellow bra is like totally visible, what a slut”
Lucy shock her head “the worst part are those dirty ass sneakers, like ew can’t you afford a new pair”
Ricky felt awful having to listen to his “friends” bully people.
Lucy nudged Ricky’s arm “Nicki what do you think is the worst part of her clothes”
Ricky couldn’t bring himself to insult her “I think her clothes are… fine”
“Fine? She’s dressed like a total tomboy slut”said Carly.
“Well you ain’t dressed the most feminine today, you have a sporty look to you” said Ricky in a passive aggressive tone.
“Well actually, I’m dressed like this because well… I’m kinda meeting up with someone at lunch” said Carly.
Lucy’s eyes lit up “oh my goddd, you have to give us every detail, who and what are you doing?”
Carly smiled, she was glad Lucy asked her so she can brag about it “me and Thomas freaking Cook are meeting up for lunch to play basketball”
Lucy was super excited “girl I’m so happy for you, he’s so perfect”
“He’s tall, dark and handsome, literally perfection” said Carly.
“Congats” said Ricky awkwardly as he didn’t know what to say.
Before their conversation on Thomas Cook could go further, Colleen returned.
When Colleen came into the clsssroom she looked sad, she sat on her chair without saying a word.
Lucy noticed her sadness and silence “girl, what’s the matter”
Colleen sighed “well I didn’t get my period but that’s not the worst when I looked in the mirror, I noticed I was ugly and my outfit looked dumb”
Immediately Lucy and Carly started rubbing her shoulders and bring overly nice to her”
“No Colleen, you’re so beautiful and you’re outfit is so cute” said Lucy.
“Yeah Colleen you rock that outfit plus don’t worry about periods because they suck, trust me” said Carly.
Colleen smiled “aw I love you girls”
Ricky felt sick, the girls were just insulting Colleen’s clothes behind her back but are complicating them in her face.
“Now Colleen, did you see anything interesting while you’re were away”
Colleen giggled “well you know Mia Hampton (the girls nodded) well she was in the stall next to me and I think she doing a pregnancy test”
Lucy and Carly gasped “that slut” said Lucy.
“Well I think I know who the dad is” said Carly.
Lucy and Colleen gasped “oh my god, tell us immediately” said Lucy.
“So like two weeks ago at one of Marcus’ house parties, I accidentally walked in on her and Dean Baker having sex”
“This is why I love gossiping with you gals, I learn so much” said Colleen.
Ricky felt the complete opposite, he hated the last couple of minutes.
