"Well don't gripe at ME about it! I've only been here for about 5 seconds!"
Valerie slowly redid the ponytail on the back of Mildreth's head. She slowly inhaled and exhaled; mumbling to herself about birds and butterflies.
Mildreth Edwards had been her best friend since the 4th Grade. They had met whilst Valerie was in the brink of an intense fight with local bully, Drake Henry. Valerie had already landed five crushing blows to Drake's head. Acoording to doctors, one more blow would've been fatal for Drake as it was later revealed that he had a brain tumour. From that day on, Mildreth Edwards had lived in awestruck fear of Valerie DeReasee, and instead chose to acquire a 'friendship' of sorts with her. Valerie was always beautiful; even now as she was dressed down in sweatpants and a pink tank top. She had long dark brown tousled hair, hazel eyes and cream-coloured skin. She was the apple of her parents' eye, loved by all the boys and ALWAYS got her way! Mildreth on the other hand, was a blossoming Asian beauty. She had miles of akwardly long hair, oversized brown eyes and weight that fluctuated more than the economy! They had absolutely NOTHING in common...
"Ouch! Ice Princess-you're pulling my hair out!" Mildreth snatched at her ponytail.
"Hold still! I can't understand, it was supposed to be Rihanna red! You look like the Kool-Aid man threw up all over you!"
"Oh that's really nice, while you on the other hand look like you just stepped out of an ELLE photoshoot!" Mildreth glared angrily up at Valerie.
Valerie strutted towards the floor-length mirror and twisted her body at an angle to stare at her butt.
"You have to admit, my ass looks AMAZING in these jeans! And with my new hair, Joey'll be crawling into my bed tonight."
Mildreth stood up-mouth agape-and simply stared at Valerie. She knew that Valerie was vulgar but this had to me sick..
"Seriously Val? I mean, he's like 21 or sumptin' and plus he's got a beard. A BEARD I tell ya! How could you ever chase a car like that?"
"Oh don't have a cow Mil. You gotta admit, he is kinda hot; for a 21-year-old still stuck in high school. He's got a new car, didja see? A cream Ferrari! The new one they featured on Top Gear with all those fancy buttons and shit!"
"Shut up Val! I'm being serious. You don't know where that cat's been. He could've been with Harper just last night or-"
"Shut your mouth bitch!" Valerie turned and fiercely shoved Mildreth into the mirror. The mirror gave a sharp squeak as a crack surfaced in the right corner where Mildreth's head had hit it. Valerie abruptly let go of Mildreth and watched her drop to the floor. A small trail of blood trickled from Mildreth's ear down to her neck. Valerie intensely held her gaze on Mildreth then turned her attention back to her reflection.
"Nobody tells me what I can and can't do. Oh sweet Millie, you should've known by now..."
One thing Mildreth remembered before falling unconscious, was that Valerie DeReasee ALWAYS got her way...
