Athena threw Sarah a wicked grin, saying "Hey, Sarah. What's up?"
I finished rubbing my eyes and looked at Sarah. "Still taking bullshit from those cheerleaders?"
"Yeah, but I'm handling it," Sarah said. Behind her, I could see the two cheerleaders that had been hounding her when I originally saw her approaching us. They looked mad, but they weren't bothering us. I was so glad that Sarah was one of our friends. The Goth girl looked intimidating, with all of her piercings and tattoos, not to mention her mohawk hairdo. She was a true goth punk girl. Today, she was dressed in all black leather and fishnets. She was a total bitch. But she was our bitch. It certainly gave the cheerleaders, not to mention anyone else, second thoughts about tormenting us.
"So, what are you planning to do today?" Athena asked Sarah. It was common knowledge that Sarah usually skipped school, but seeing that she was there with them, maybe she actually intended on attending today.
