Jamie slowly pulled her fingers to her lips. The cigarette in her hand was warm and felt soft. She placed it in her lips, and slowly inhaled the sweet vapors. Suddenly she started to heave. The girls around her just sighed and handed her a water bottle. It was like this for everyone. "Take a Drink." commanded Lolly. Her Bleach blonde hair shook as Jamie drank the water hoping for the heaving cough to stop. She slowly stopped coughing and gave a weak smile to the other girls around her. Their was Lolly whose real name was Lolianne, with her mousy brown hair and light green eyes, and Alexandra with her long black hair and tan skin, and lastly Johanna with her naturally Dirty Blond Bob and Clear Pale Skin. They crowded Jamie congratulating her for actually inhaling the smoke. "Your officially in our clique!" Lolly said then she turned to her mirror and started to fix her makeup and hair. "I really in!!!" exclaimed Jamie "After all these months of trials I'm finally in!" "Yep." Alexandra said. "How 'bout be celebrate with a little wine?" she asked. Jamie started to feel her blood run cold. "Uhhh.... I cant ..." Jamie started to say, "WHAT??" Johanna Exclaimed "What are you a chicken? Don't tell me your a chicken Jamie! I don't want to have to kick you out of the club. Just try it Jamie!" She then threw the bottle of wine into Jamie's lap. Jamie was reluctant, but she didn't want to be kicked out. She had just gotten in! "Fine ..." Jamie nervously said. She picked up the bottle. It was nice and cool and she just wanted to place it on her forehead and let it sit there. Alexandra handed her a bottle top opener and Jamie opened the bottle. It fizzed and bubbled for a moment and she pulled it up to her lips. The top was cool and she sipped a small amount. "Is that all your gonna drink?" Asked Lolly. Alexandra then slapped Jamie's back making the poor girl gulp down a large amount and cough as tears came out of her eyes. Once the coughing subsided, she felt dizzy and woozy. "I'm gonna go home girls." said Jamie. She stood up and stumbled out the door. She opened the door to her car and got in and placed the key in the ignition. She pulled the car out of the driveway and drove off, leaving Lolly, Alexandria, and Johanna watching.
