Steven filed into the building with the others, his skirt gently swishing against his thighs and his folders clasped to his chest. He was so glad that the madness of Dr Gilmore was behind them all, and that life was back on track. That feeling of well being lasted all of five seconds right up until he spied Daria 'Queen Bee' Callow by the stairs, holding court among her adoring fans.
It was just sooo unfair they both had to wear the same outfit, but Stevens did absolutely nothing for his figure, while Darias did wonders for hers. "Ugh, she is, like, such a skank! Why don't the rest of them see it?" He griped acidly. "Could you see anything past those DDD's of hers" a cheery voice from behind answered.
Steven turned to see who had spoken and saw a willowy young man with a friendly smirk on his pink glossy lips. "Hi I'm Justin, I sit at the desk two along from you." He said subtly adjusting a bra-strap "And I'm soo glad to meet someone else who thinks Little Ms Stripper-Tits isn't all that."
Steven shyly smiled back " Um, I'm Steven. And she's been a royal pain in the butt ever since she transferred here." He replied "As soon as she turned up none of the rest of us had a chance. OMG does that, like, make me sound bitter."
"Don't sweat it, your not the first I've heard the 'Daria rant' from. If you want to join us at Lunch I'll let the two of you swap stories" Justin said.
"I don't know, I normally just work through lunch" Steven murmured timidly, trying not to catch Justin eye. As he did so he saw Daria glance his way then turn and whisper into the boy next to hers ear and laugh. "You know what, I think I will" Steven said in a steely little voice.
