Chapter 48 (THE END)-2

She looked a little taken back as I pressed the subject, clearly expecting me to just drop it and think nothing of it. Being the good little Barbie she was though, the pearly white smile was back on her lips as she answered me. “Oh just this girl who I used to go to school with. I don’t even know why I remember her to be honest, she wasn’t exactly high up on the social ladder and barely said 4 words in public her entire high school life.” She laughed “That’s what made me realise it couldn’t be you because you clearly are not afraid to speak your mind…” She gestured her head towards the queue, referring to my little outburst a minute ago “…whereas this girl was basically invisible in high school. Wouldn’t say boo to a goose.” I found my teeth clenching together as each word was hitting a little closer and closer to home. I continued to try and look past the paintball gun applied foundation on her face to see if there was any aspect of this girl that would make me recognise her. Her face was familiar, but to be honest I didn’t know if that’s because I knew her or because I have seen so many orange plastic bimbos that they are all starting to look the same. I forced a smile to play along “If the girl really was invisible how come you can remember her to this day?” She clearly had gotten past the fact that I was pushing the subject and had gone into the ‘gossip’ mode that many of her species, the orange whore, go into when provoked. “The only reason I remember her is because of all the rumours that went around about her and my boyfriend. I was dating this guy back then, gorgeous by the way and he was totally mad for me, we were together for a while but there were all these rumours about her having an ‘affair’ with him behind my back.” She shook her head as she air quoted, making it sound like the most ridiculous thing she has ever heard in her life. My eyes almost popped out of my skull as I suddenly realised who this girl was. The name badge that I stupidly didn’t notice a second ago suddenly was screaming at me. Gina. Irony was clearly sitting somewhere watching this whole thing on the telly with a bowl of popcorn and a coke having a good old laugh at this right now. I was away from my agent life and just as I am about to step onto the plane to take me far, far away from this forever, I meet the biggest bitch from my old life. “I mean, I didn’t believe them for a second of course.” Her voice cut through my thoughts. Clearly getting older has not meant this girl has matured. I mean, she was gossiping about me to someone she thought was a complete stranger in the middle of her shift. Age really has had no impact on this girl. I clenched my fist next to me, forgetting just how much this whore got under my skin. I suddenly wished I did have my pocket knife tucked away in my bra. That would have been fun. “Why’s that?” I asked her with a big fake smile. For a brief second she looked at me as if to say ‘do you really have to ask?’ but then she quickly covered it up with her bubbly fake persona. “I mean, i don’t wanna toot my own horn here but back at school I was kinda’the queen bee.” She giggled like a school girl. My eyes snapped to the pen in her blazer pocket which I could use to gank her in at least 26 different ways. “This guy was in the football team, everyone knew that he wouldn’t risk losing the head cheerleader for a girl who wasn’t even on the map. I had nothing to worry about because the guy left her to be with me, he wouldn’t have gotten back with that loser any time soon I can tell you that.” You know I said irony was sitting somewhere watching all of this on the telly? Turns out, irony plays fair because what happened next was definitely in my favour. “I’m not pushing in! We’re all going to get on the plane eventually so chill the fuck out!” I heard a voice from behind me and found a small smirk appear on my lips as I noticed Gina’s eyes also get drawn towards the guy who was currently pushing his way to the front of the queue. “Look I’m trying to get to my girlfriend, if you do not move the hell out of my way I will tell security you’re packing a grenade in that man bag…Yeah, That’s what I though.” I shook my head in amusement as I realised he really did have to make a scene everywhere he went. When he finally managed to reach the front of the queue, he was actually out of breath. “Sorry about that, some people are so inconsiderate.” He shook his head before giving me one of his smirks and placing a small kiss on my lips. “What the hell took so long, you said you needed to pee.” I stated, realising that he had been gone for over 20 minutes. That familiar look was on his face. The look that made him look like a school boy who had been caught doing something he shouldn’t, but was secretly proud of it. “I did need to pee, but when I came out I thought I’d pop into the duty free shop to get a copy of razzl-I mean a copy of The Times to read on the plane.” He quickly corrected himself, but unfortunately for him I knew him too well. The only magazines Jace reads need to have big pictures in them of naked girls to keep his interest for longer than 3 minutes. Razzle had this, The Times however, did not. “And where is this copy of The Times?” I questioned him, playing along. “You see this is why I was late, I got so caught up reading it in the shop that I almost forgot we had a plane to catch.” He said fluently, attempting to pull the corner of his mouth down to stop from laughing. I raised my brow, crossing my arms over my chest and cocking my head giving him a look that told him I wasn’t buying any of this bullshit. He rolled his eyes and sighed “Okay, I found the toy section in the shop and spent the last 15 minutes attempting to do a rubix cube.” I let out a laugh “Now that I believe.”
