Brooke sighed, tucking Alice’s bleach blonde hair behind her ear, “I just wish..that you wouldn’t hide your hair underneath a wig”

Alice smiled and grabbed Brooke’s hand, gently kissing it, saying, “I know, but my hair isn’t normally colored like your’s or Trice’s are. How many people do you know with hair that looks blue?”

“But that what makes it beautiful!” Brooke protested vehemently.

Alice twirled around in circles, bringing Brooke into her arms, “My hair isn’t the problem, is it?”

Brooke crinkled her nose, “It sucks that you can read me like a book”

Alice asked, “What is the problem then, love?”

Brooke turned to look Alice in the eyes, stating, “A week ago I couldn’t hold you like this or..or do things with you because the school said we were natural enemies. Before that stupid drive you and your family funded, I didn’t know that you had feelings beyond that unbelievable kindness. The wild side of you or hell, even the mean side. I just wish we didn’t have to hide it”

“Your popularity does hang in the balance”

“I don’t care! You come first!”

Alice raised her eyebrows, “And where do you come in at?”

“What do you mean?”

“What about you? How do you fell about loosing everything you worked 8 years for? How do you feel?”

“I…I don’t know”

Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.

Brooke doubled over laughing, “You look like a hooker”

Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.

Alice stared wide-eyed at Brooke across from her, unconsciously clenching her skirt.

Brooke spoke first, “Well, I’ve seen my share of weird experiences. I think this tops most of them”

Alice stuttered, “I…It’s not what it looks like! R-really!”

“You mean that your hair isn’t really blue and you don’t dress like a victim of assault? We all have our dirty little secrets, I’m just glad that I know yours”
Alice glared and said, “I have to do this for my parents drive, okay!?”

“Your parents? You mean that Kathryn and Paul Reeves are your parents?”

“Yes! And I would very much appreciate it if you told no one”

“Or else?”

Alice narrowed her eyes, “I will hunt you down and hurt you”

Brooke backed up a step, but stayed there, “Well, I say you can be menacing”

Alice let out a growl and lunged at Brooke's middle section, “I’ll show you menacing!”

As they both fell to the ground, Alice took the incentive to grab Brooke’s hair and tug, earning a shriek and a punch to the stomach. They rolled on the ground, scratching, kicking and punching for a good five minutes before Alice got up and said, “Enough. I’m not going to fight you anymore”

Brooke scowled at her from the ground, “Oh yeah, and why not?”

“Because I don’t really hate you. And I think I would very much like to go back inside and dance with Tucker”

“Well, that makes two of us. Except the Tucker part, I don’t like men much”

“Yes, they can be quite ru-wait, what?”

Brooke gave her a look, “Which part do you need explaining in?”

“You don’t hate me?”

Brooke laughed, “Nope, never had. Kyle started all this anyway, saying that we should be enemies.

Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.

Alice shrieked when a voice behind her said, “You look like a princess, Princess”

She visibly relaxed when she realized it was just Brooke, “I’m supposed to. It’s to meet the Prince of “

“I know, but that dress is amazing, really” Brooke said, coming close enough to be seen in the mirror.

“Thank You” she replied with a small smile.

“It’s also a nice change from the normal hooker clothes you wear at home” Brooke stated, a smirk in place.

“Oh you’re terrible Brooke!” she said, turning around to hit Brooke’s arm. She was alarmed when Brooke flinched, “Oh, I’m sorry! Did I hit you to hard?”

Brooke grimaced, “No just a bruise is all”

Alice narrowed her eyes, “A bruise from who?”

“No one”

“I can tell you’re lying”

Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.

Brooke raised her eyebrow at Alice‘s outfit, “Is your favorite color red?”

Alice grinned, “Actually, no. My favorite color is black”

“Black?”

“Yep. It’s such a dark color, but looks good with anything”

She twirled on the balls of her feet, her skinny jeans

Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.

“Oh my god, your hair is red, and it’s real”

Alice threw back her head and laughed, “I took your advice, but I realized I didn’t like blue hair. And red stands out so well, I love it”

Trice leaned in on the table, “Ooh, and we associate in school like civilized people now?”

Brooke quickly turned her head, “You tell no one, Rabbit”

“Afraid for your popularity?”

Brooke glanced at Alice who was occupying her time with a white butterfly, “No for Alice’s”

Trice clapped her hands, startling the other two occupants of the area, “It is about damn time you two started dating!”

Alice scowled at Trice, “She told you”

Brooke threw her hands up in defense, “I did not”

Trice jumped up and hugged Alice, also kissing each cheek, “No I’m just very perceptive”

Alice blushed, “Was I obvious?”

Brooke let out a whoosh of air when she got up, “Nah I think I made it to obvious”

Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.Line.

“Don’t you confuse the people that work for you?” Brooke asked.

Alice gave her a questioning look, “With what?”

“All the wigs you own, changing them like every day”

“Oh, no. Leah and Charles know all my wigs. They actually buy them for me when they go on trips”
