The Next Dat
🕯🕯🕯

Claudia sat at the kitchen counter reading text with her feet in the chair, bright an early Monday morning. She and Allie were up all night teasing Nova about the girl she had kissed outside of school, and Claudia was now tired. "Hey babes," Pippa smiled, opening the fridge. Claudia smiled and placed her phone on the counter.

"Hey," Claudia replied. She watched Allie come up from basement with Nova and smirked. "Mommy, I think we should have pancakes for breakfast on Saturday. Nova do you think Monte would like to join us?" Claudia teased. Nova blushed and sat beside her, shying away from her Nona.

"Shut up!" She whined. Pippa sensed the playful tension and smirked as she placed three bowls in front of the girls.

"Monte, huh? What's he like?" She asked. Allie smirked and dramatically flipped her hair.

"Well for starters, he has vagina and is quit the bad girl," Allie spilled. Nova gasped and slapped Allie's arm out of embarrassment.

"A girl? Even better," Pippa joked. "Is she nice? Does she play sports? What?" She asked passing out the cereal boxes and milk.

"She's a great kisser!" Claudia butted in. Nova's eyes went wide as she placed her head on the counter. Pippa rose an eyebrow, but saw how uncomfortable her granddaughter was and left it alone. She went to change the subject when AnneMarie came down the stairs. As she appeared in the kitchen, Allie, Claudia and Nova went quiet.

"Good morning, hun," Pippa warmly greeted. AnneMarie rolled her eyes and opened the fridge. She quickly grabbed a bottle of water and glanced at her twin up and down.

"Fat ass," she insulted. Claudia rolled her eyes and dramatically looked her sister up and down.

"At least I can still eat a meal," she hit back. Pippa held up her hands at the girls.

"Breakfast is over. AnneMarie, Nova get in the truck," Pippa demanded. AnneMarie silently walked to the garage as Nova groaned.

"I wasn't even done!" She said, hopping downs and taking the bowl with her. "I guess it's to go now," she muttered, grabbing her bag and continuing to eat as she left. Pippa grabbed her morning coffee and rolled her eyes.

"You two get to school on time!" She warned, leaving out of the kitchen behind Nova. Allie looked up from her phone and nodded.

"If you want us to get Charlotte we have to hurry. Grab your bong and let's go," she said. Allie quickly grabbed her keys from the hook and her weed kit. Claudia placed there bowls in the sink, grabbed her backpack already loaded with her bong and bud, and followed her older sister to her car.

🕯🕯🕯

Allie and her bestie, Martina, sat in the front sharing a joint, while Charlotte and Claudia shared the bong in the back. Charlotte had her legs in Claudia's lap as Claudia played with the hole in her jeans. "I hope Luna (in the picture at the top) fucking says something today. I want to fight. I've been itching to get into it with that bitch," Allie said, pulling into the back of the parking lot.

"Bitch, you know she will. She doesn't think you'll hit her," Martina said. Allie giggled and took another hit before letting Martina finish off the blunt. In the back, Claudia passed the blunt to Charlotte and let out her puff.

"So, why me?" She asked, watching Charlotte take a huge hit. The blonde smiled and handed the bong back.

"I don't know. You didn't seem like everyone else. You don't care about the money or the clout. You like me because of me," Charlotte answered.

"Like I told you last night, we need people who can match our social statuses. Being with someone who doesn't match can cause a lot of issues, ya know," Claudia asked. Charlotte nodded and pulled a Capri-Sun out of her backpack.

"I get it," she smiled taking a sip. "You want some?" She asked, handing the pouch to Claudia.

"Sure. But, it looks like we gotta go," Claudia answered taking a small sip and handing the pouch back. She placed her bong under a blanket in Allie's back seat and grabbed her backpack.

"You sure you wanna be seen with me?" Charlotte asked with a smirk as she grabbed her own bag. Claudia got out of the car with Charlotte not to far behind her and sprayed herself.

"Yeah. Why wouldn't I?" Claudia asked. Charlotte grabbed her hand and shrugged.

"Because being seen with me means everyone will basically know we're a thing," Charlotte said. Claudia looked down at their interlocked fingers and bit her lip.

"We're a thing?" Claudia asked. Charlotte stepped closer to Claudia with her eyes locked.

"If you want to be," she whispered. Claudia could feel Allie and Martina's eyes on the scene and decided to just nod. "Cool," Charlotte giggled walking with Claudia to her first class.

During the 5th block of the day, which was Allie and Martina's Art class, the two were working on a collaborative piece for the art show that was nearing. While trying to talk to the teacher about some elements that the girls wanted to add to their project, a couple of voices in the hall distracted Allie. "Hold on," Allie said. She went to the hall to see Luna and some girl laughing and giggling about, what Allie assumed, was her. "Hey Luna, stop talking shit! Kay, thanks," she yelled down the hall before shutting the classroom door and going back to her teacher.

"Allie, come on," Mr. Brightwell, lazily reprimanded. Allie shrugged and went back to her project. "How do you even know she was talking about you?" The 53 year old man asked. Allie smacked her lips and continued to paint as he walked over and took a seat on a stool next to her.

"Because Brightwell, it's like a sixth sense, I just know," she answered. Martina giggled and shook her head.

"They go back and forth like the Montagues and the Capulets. A blood feud of NOTHING!" She exclaimed. Allie rolled her eyes and ran red paint over Martina's bare arm. "Boi! That was unnecessary," she laughed, getting black paint on Allie's cheek. Brightwell held out his hands to stop the girls, but only ended up with painted thumbs.

"Ladies, please," He whispered. Allie bit her lip as Martina looked innocently at the painting.

"Sorry," they unanimously apologized. The art teacher nodded and went to wash off his hands and tend to other students. As soon as he was out of ear shot the best friends giggled and started to talk about what happened outside of the car.

In the courtyard during lunch, Charlotte introduced Claudia to her friends Lea, Ona, and Danielle.

"Hey guys, this is my girl, Cl-"

"What's up bitch? You change yo outfit and think I don't notice you?" Danielle started as she stood up. Claudia's eyes widened as she held her hands up.

"No! I'm not AnneMarie! Look! Different hair," she said, pulling her hair out of the bun to show the 15 year old that her hair was significantly shorter than her sisters. "I'm Claudia," she said. Danielle licked her teeth and nodded.

"Okay. You're lucky, you almost got your ass beat," Danielle said. Charlotte shook her head and sat down with Claudia in front of her friends.

"Well, that was Dani. That one on her phone is Ona. And the other one is Lea," she said. Claudia smiled at them and was happy to see them smile back.

"Hi, how come I've never seen you before?" Lea asked with a slight accent.

"I usually hang out with my sister, Allie and her friend Martina," Claudia answered. Danielle's eyebrows popped when she heard Allie's name.

"Yo, your sister is the girl with the good shit? Next time you see her, tell her that Dani was looking for her," Danielle said, before pulling out her phone. Claudia nodded and looked to Charlotte.

"Why does she want to beat up my twin? Not like I'm complaining," she asked. Charlotte smirked at Dani.

"Dani, why do you want beat AnneMarie?" Charlotte asked with a half laugh. Dani smacked her lips and flipped her hair.

"Well, you know Trayvon? We was messing around for a while, until found out that your sister was fucking around with him too. But when I asked Tray about it, he told me your sister was telling him a bunch of bullshit to break us up," Dani explained.

"She even told Tray that Dani had gonorrhea and that she was trying spread it," Ona added. Claudia nodded.

"She slept with my ex too, so you can add an extra beating for me too," Claudia said as none other than her sister walked around the corner with the Montoya twins.

"Look, here's your chance," Claudia instigated. Danielle hopped up from her seat and stood in front of AnneMarie.

"Hi bitch," Danielle smiled. AnneMarie rolled her eyes trying to act hard. "What's good? It's you and me," Danielle said.

"You already lost, move on," AnneMarie said. Dani's eyes went wide.

"It's funny how I've lost and you're the one on the ground," she said.

"I'm not—" before AnneMarie could even get her words out Dani slapped her in the face and knocked her to the ground. She started wailing on her, throwing punches to the face as everyone outside crowed around and watched. Claudia and Charlotte pushed to the front with Ona and Lea.

"Oh my god," Claudia whispered with her hand over her mouth. Charlotte couldn't tell if her girlfriend was scared or happy. She had never seen that expression before. Claudia watched as AnneMarie looked over to her, with a look of help. Dani was moving so fast on her that she couldn't even get her breath or from under her.

"Do you want me to call her off? I can," Charlotte asked. Claudia took a deep breath and sighed. She slowly nodded to let Charlotte and Lea run in and grab Danielle off of her sister. "Yo, it's over!" Charlotte said, dragging her friend away. Claudia stared at her sister not sure what to do. Her eye was bruised, her head had a major cut, and it definitely looked like her thumb took a beating from blocking her face. AnneMarie slowly started to get off the ground as everyone disappeared, including the twins. Soon it was just Claudia and AnneMarie feet apart. AnneMarie tried to catch her breath as Claudia slowly shook her head and left her sister on the ground in pain. She caught up with Charlotte and grabbed her hand. "You okay?" She asked. Claudia stayed silent, but nodded.

"Yeah, let's go get Dani cleaned up. She's got my sisters blood on her shirt," Claudia tried to laugh as they headed to the farthest bathroom.

In the bathroom Claudia texted Pippa about what happened as a for warning.

Little did she know, a beating that didn't look to serious was, going to turn into something a little worse, because what would her family be with out the worst possible outcomes.
