{The Beginning}
I scampered down the hall heading over to the classroom fuming angrily,my head was about to explode in anger. He had gone too far this time.
Mess with me,fine.
Mess with my car, you're dead meat.
Alex is dead meat.
I entered into the classroom to spot Alex sitting across the room with his group of friends and a brunette sitting on his lap.
I hurtled over to where he sat and yanked the brunette away from him.
"What the hell bitch!"The brunette yelled and i tossed her away with the book in my hands and she fell on the floor.
"What the fuck did you do with my car,you fucking retard!"I yelled, grabbing him by his collar.
A sly smirk curled on his face as he stared at me with his sharp piercing eyes.
"Talking about the devil"He said and i trashed him with the book in my hand.
"You mother fucker,do you know what you did?"I yelled angrily.
"Do you smell something Justin?"He asked his dumbass friend who was smirking beside him.
"No, what's smelling?"Justin asked.
"Revenge,sweet revenge"Alex smirked.
"You dimwitted asshole,so this is revenge,do you think this is funny?mess with me fine, mess with my car and I'll use your ass for meatballs"I yelled.
"He-he-hey,stop raising your voice at me, I've done my part, it's called payback,now run along,as you can see i was busy before you came in here"He said, pulling the brunette back on his lap.
"This isn't over Alex, I call the shots here,you called this revenge right? I'll teach you what revenge tastes like"I said and scooted out of the room angrily.
This is just the beginning Alexander Williams, I promise to make you pay for every damn thing you did to my baby.
I trotted back to my car, looking at my poor baby covered in mud and something sticky I couldn't even relate.
I had to trek back home leaving my car in the car wash.
"Hey sweetie, you're back,how was your day?"Mum said, kissing my cheek.
"Terrible,i hate my life mum"I said.
"What happened this time sweetie?"She asked with a concerned look.
"That arrogant stupid dumbass motherfucking-"I was cut off by my mum.
"Olivia Marinette Henderson,what did i say about cursing!"She yelled.
"Sorry mum,i said it in a fit of rage"I apologized.
"It's ok,no cursing from now on"She warned.
"Ok mum"I said.
"Now, politely tell me what happened, in a well mannered and trained speech"She said.
"I'm just so angry and mad right now,one annoying ass...um i mean one boy annoyed me,he messed up my car and made me trek all the way home"I yelled.
"Are you sure he did it or you're just jumping into conclusions,did the person your accusing tell you he's the one behind it?"She asked calmly.
"Yes mum,he agreed to it and i know him to well, he's my biggest enemy, he'll do anything to ruin my life and he called it payback,he said it's revenge for what i did to him"I said.
"And what did you do to him?"She asked.
"I didn't do anything mum, I only exposed him for cheating in calc test and so he did that as payback"I said.
"It's okay sweetheart, I know how you must be feeling right now,but as a well trained and mannered girl,you don't have to take any sort of revenge on him,just let bygones be bygones"She said.
Arguing with my mum right now would be a waste of time, she'll just obviously lecture me about being good to people no matter what they do to me and i really don't feel like hearing any boring lectures.
She obviously doesn't know Alexander Williams,team basketball player and mastermind of evil, he'll do anything to make my life miserable and I'm always waiting for him.
Alex you've messed with the wrong person today all in the name of revenge,you call yourself a player but this time I'll be your coach and I'll be giving you a red card soon.
"Yeah, you're right mum, I should just forget about it, I'll obviously not gain anything in fighting with him" I said, faking a smile.
"That's more like it,good girl,now go up and freshen up while i make lunch" She said.
"Okay mum,is Dad home?" I asked.
"No he went out earlier this morning,he should be on his way by now" She said.
"Ok mum, I'll be in my room"I said, smiling wearily.
"Ok sweetie"She said and i traipsed up to my room.
I plopped down on my bed, staring at the ceiling angrily.
That Alex,what does he even think about himself, he's just an arrogant dickhead with an attitude,he thinks he can ruin my car and get away with it,he has no idea who is up against this time.
I will deal with him in unimaginable ways to such an extent that he will come crawling and begging at my mercy.
I hate you Alex Williams,i hate you more than anything.
My hatred for Alex started a year ago, I was just a new transfer student in Brianna's high school,my family had recently moved to America and i was just adjusting to my new life.
I was the popular new girl in school whom everyone adored,all the girls and boys were after me and i became so popular that everyone marvelled at my entrance.
One night during a friend's birthday party,Alex had asked me out saying i should be his girlfriend since i was the school's hottest girl and he was the hottest guy,he said we'll make a great couple and we'll be the talk of the school,but me, being the girl who despised boys after what my ex did to me back in new york,i turned him down in the presence of everyone who was present at the party, I threw the flower he was offering right on his face, I obviously wasn't a fan of hot boys like Alex and definitely not a fan of players like him.
Alex couldn't handle rejection and ever since, he'd made it his goal to make my life a nightmare.
He was my nightmare,is and always will be.
But of course,as the smartass i am, I'd never let him off without a fight.
Bad boys like Alex Williams need Bad girls like me to teach him how the game works, I will definitely keep teaching him in the language he will understand.

"What?"Zoey my best friend, exclaimed.
"You mean he did that!"Jane,my other best friend yelled.
"He messed with the wrong person this time, I will definitely be dealing with him sooner than he expects,Alex doesn't know what he's in for" I said, smirking.
"The nerves of that guy,we need to deal with him" Zoey said.
"Yeah we need to teach him a very big lesson that he'd never forget"Jane said.
"I know girls, we've gotta think of something big this time, something that will leave him speechless"I said.
"Uh huh"Zoey smirked knowingly like she just won a trophy.
"What?" Jane and I asked in unison.
"What does Alex like the most?" She asked.
"I don't know, I'm not his girlfriend"I said.
"Think"She said.
"Himself of course, he's so full of himself" Jane said.
"I know he's proud and arrogant and is always on about how handsome he is,but think of something,what is the one thing he values the most"Zoey said.
"His car?"I asked.
"No"
"His shoes?"Jane asked.
"No"
"His basketball?"I asked.
"Still no"
"His bike?"Jane asked.
"No"
"His face?"I asked.
"You're getting there"She said.
"What's it then,stop the suspense!"Jane blurted.
Zoey had this bad habit of making people guess,she derived joy in it for some reason i can never understand.
"Think"She said.
"What else does he love if not his car, face, shoes abd bike?"Jane asked.
"Good question J"I agreed.
"You both are just so dumb, come on think"Zoey said.
"I'm out of thoughts,nah i give up"Jane said putting up her hands.
"Come on Zoe,cut the suspense already"I said.
"No, I want you both to use your brains and think,whoever gets the answer can have that new black hoodie i bought last Friday"She said.
"Now this is unfair,you know i already asked you for that hoodie and you refused,now you're giving it out as a prize?"I said.
"Yup"She said, popping the 'p'
"Come on Zoe,this is unfair"Jane said.
"I don't care whatever you both say,just think already"She said.
"Ah ha,i got it, his phone,you know he adores it a lot"Jane said.
"Jane!"Zoey and I yelled in unison.
"What?"She asked.
"Why do you always have to give dumbness a new name each time you speak?"Zoey asked.
"What wrong did i say?,i was only stating the obvious"She said in defense.
"Whatever, let's think now" I said.
"I'm out of thoughts"Jane said.
"I got it!"I screamed.
"What?"They both asked.
"The one and only thing Alex loves and boasts about all the time is his hair, he's obviously obsessed with his hair"I said.
"Correct!....finally some brains"Zoey said and we both stared at her.
It was a 'Are you fucking kidding me' kinda stare that bore holes into her skin.
"Ok...sorry, it's just that the answer was so simple and obvious and you guys were finding it difficult to answer"She said.
"Whatever,now what's the plan?"Jane asked.
"I think i have a few great ideas"I smirked, rubbing my hands together.
"And what's that?"Jane asked.
"First of all,we need to get into Alex's locker and get his helmet"I said.
"You know that's impossible, he'll never give us his key"Jane said.
"Did i ever mention that we're gonna ask him for his key?"I asked.
"Then what?"Zoey asked.
"We are gonna steal, we're gonna steal the key from him"I said.
"That isn't possible,you and i both know he's always with his key, it's stuck to his finger"Jane said.
"Relax girls,let me handle this"I smiled.
"Oh no Liv, you're gonna get us in trouble i know it"Jane said.
"Will you shut up and listen here Jane"Zoey said.
"Hey don't tell me to shut up I'm not your puppet"Jane said.
"Did i ever say you're my puppet? and besides you're too dumb to be my puppet"Zoey said.
"Look Zoe, I'm warning you, I'll....."
"Will you both keep your damn mouths shut and let's focus on the plan here"I said.
"Fine"They both said, folding their arms and frowning.
"Good,now as i was saying, I'll get the key from Alex"I said.
"And how do you plan on doing that?"Zoey asked.
"I think it's time to visit some old pals"I said.
"What is she talking about?"Jane asked.
"She's insane"Zoey said.
"I'm perfectly alright, I have a little surprise coming for Alex"I smirked.
"What's your plan now?"Jane asked.
"Getting the key first,but in order to achieve that i need to see an old pal"I smirked as i got up from my seat.
"Where are you going to?"Zoey asked.
"To see my favorite person"I said.
"Oh no,why do i have a feeling that this has something to do with Mr Benson"Jane said.
"You're right" I smiled, walking out of the classroom where we were as i waddled over to the office i hated visiting the most.
"Hello,my favorite Principal,long time no see"I smiled.
"Ms Henderson,what are you doing here?You didn't show up for detention on Friday,why if i may ask?"He asked.
"Well you see Mr Benson,i was bored of your detention so i went home"I smiled.
"That's it, you've earned yourself a double detention,today and tomorrow,after school you'll stay back for detention"He said.
"Aww,so sweet, that's why i love you so much"I said, pulling his cheeks.
"Mad girl,get out of my office"He yelled.
"See you in detention Mr B"I smirked as i waddled out of the office.
Plan A successful,now I just need to wait for detention.
***
I plodded over to Mr Benson's office, I snuck my head towards the office, making sure no one was watching.
"Are you sure about this Liv?"Jane asked.
"One hundred percent,you both should just keep watch for me,if you hear any movements,alert me at once,use our password"I said.
"Ok,hurry before someone sees you"Zoey said.
"Ok"I said and got into the office which i had stolen the keys from the janitor.
I pussyfooted into the office, heading for his shelf where I knew all the spare keys were kept,i opened the shelf with the master key in my hand and luckily there were a bunch of keys in the shelf.
I searched the shelf looking for Locker 12 key which happened to be Alex's locker.
"Finally"I muttered as i pulled the key out of the shelf, locking it back.
I immediately ran out of the office, locking it and then scampered to where my friends stood waiting for me.
"Did you get it?" Zoey asked.
"Yes,now i need to get to Alex's locker" I said.
"Ok babe, we'll keep watch for you"Jane said and i ran down the hall towards the direction of Alex's locker.
Upon arrival,i inserted the key into the keyhole and then opened the locker which was filled with Alex's pictures, basketball stuffs and other lame things he owned.
I immediately opened my backpack and pulled out the liquid dye in a container. I hung it on the locker and then carefully locked the locker back.
Mission accomplished.
I ran back to where my friends stood waiting for me with nervousness all over their faces.
"How did it go?" Zoey was the first to ask.
"Full proof,mission accomplished,Alex doesn't know what's coming his way"I smirked.
"That's my girl"Zoey said.
"Great job babe!" Jane said and they applauded me.
"Now i have to return this spare key to Mr Benson's office and then the master key back to the janitor" I said.
"Go on, we'll keep watch here for you" Zoey said and i nodded my head in response as i left for the principal's office.
I immediately set the key back in the shelf before leaving the office, heading back to the janitors closet.
I placed the key back in the Janitors locker and snuck out of the room to where my friends were busy waiting for me.
"All good?"Zoey asked and i nodded in response.
"Come on, let's get out of here"Jane said and we left the building.
