Pay No Attention To The Girl Behind The Curtain

Rich Kids Table Lunch Day 3

Lance and Elena with a few other rich kids types were all at their table. thinking on the warning they had been given by the staff. Lance looked around realizing that things had gotten quiet now and some of the fear in the eyes of others had dissipated some of the Scholarship kids. his bothered him to no end. He looked at everyone "Guys we have to lay off for a bit we can push the Scholarship kids at the beach party. let the Staff cool some. So let's not pick too much on them until then." he suggested. Elena smiled at him and took a sip of her drink. "I think Lance is right we still don't know who pulled the fire alarm. I don't think it was one of us probably not someone from either group. The cheer team has to be careful as well I know we have Scholarship people on the team. But we must be discreet or the couch will hang us from the top of the gym. If she hears about it maybe kick us off the team." added Elena they all nodded at what was said as they ate.

The two cheer girls who had made the comment to Rose looked at either other and snickered. "I supposed that means the traitor, Rose, as well." One of them commented. "Well, I guess the beach party isn't too long to wait." The other girl nodded and with a snobbish tone said. "It would be nice if none of them were on the team, though, wouldn't it?"

Melissa sat there with her plate of rice and stir fry vegetables and chicken, more picking at it than actually eating it. Out of all the Chinese food that was actually there; it was all Doug would let her eat. He had made it very clear that he was only allowing it because Lance had bought it and it would look bad if she didn't. He was very clear, though, as to what she was allowed to eat. A not too big plate of stir fry vegetables and chicken. She was supposed to have a salad tonight at the shopping trip and send him a pic to prove to him that was what she was eating.

Lance looked at everyone there "Hay we can all park our cars on the north side of the parking lot at the beach. we check-in and meet up there I have got a catering service to bring in food for us. Elena was nice to get us a DJ So we can start with a bang and show the Scholarship kids how we do things." Lance said looking at everyone eating the take-out Chinees he had ordered and had delivered. Elena put her arms around Lance's neck kissed him on the cheek. "see that was not hard lance." she whispered in his ear.

Upon seeing the way Elena was acting with Lance, Doug squeezed Melissa's arm. She was just grateful it wasn't her wrist that was still sore. He was telling her without words to act more like Elena or pay for it later. She knew what he wanted but her stomach turned a little as he put his arm around her and pulled her in closer. Melissa tensed up then hid it quickly.

One of the cheer girls spoke up. "Melissa, aren't you excited about the beach party? And you two ...such an instant couple...it's cute. Isn't it cute?"

Melissa faked a smile and hid how uncomfortable all of this was making her. "Yeah, it'll be great. Oh, stop...." Thinking to herself that last part wasn't a lie, the cheer girl could really, really stop now.

Lance shook his head "Enough you two let's not fight in front of the Scholarship monkeys." he said softly. "Now back to the beach party is there anything we missed? O! guys and girls looking at one of the girls there bring your surfboards I hear that the Scholarship kids think they can out surf us. We can not let that happen. we need to show them their place below us." lance said. Everyone nodded and gave a little cheer of sorts.

Melissa was asked by one of the cheer girls. "Do you surf?"

Mel was going to answer but Doug jumped in and said. "No, Mel, here is from Seattle, not a lot of surfing there. Right, Mel?" I think I might show her a few things about surfing though while we're there. I heard some of the scholarship students are giving surfing lessons. Don't want the school to see them as more favorable than us because of it."

This was the first Melissa was hearing about Doug giving her surfing lessons and she was certain if she screwed it up, Doug was going to be pissed at her. Still, when the others at the table nodded and agreed with Doug so did Melissa.
