      SnowAngel:

      omg, that is so not true! i can’t believe kristin said that!

      zoegirl:

      it wasn’t in a malicious way. it was just an observation.

      SnowAngel:

      friends aren’t supposed to make “observations” like that.

      zoegirl:

      ok, time out. forget i mentioned it, all right?

      SnowAngel:

      no, it’s not all right. what she said was completely rude!

      zoegirl:

      we’re changing subjects now

      SnowAngel:

      says who?

      zoegirl:

      i passed jana in the hall, and if i’m not mistaken, she actually *smiled* at me. isn’t that bizarre? i keep expecting to find pig’s blood on my locker or something, as payback for the whole Boo Boo Bear thing, and instead she smiles at me?

      SnowAngel:

      no comment. i’m still annoyed with kristin.

      zoegirl:

      is it possible that what terri said to her—compliments of me—actually made her change her evil ways?

      SnowAngel:

      no. a spade is a spade is a spade—which AGAIN is why i’m surprised that kristin would act so uncool, cuz until now i didn’t think she WAS a spade.

      zoegirl:

      okaaaay, time to change the subject

      zoegirl:

      will you go to planned parenthood with me? i’ve called and made an appointment for tomorrow afternoon.

      SnowAngel:

      whoa *jerks back in shock* didn’t see that one coming!

      zoegirl:

      it’s just that i’m pretty sure doug and i are gonna have sex, and i’m pretty sure it’s gonna be sooner rather than later. i feel bad that i’ve made him wait this long!

      SnowAngel:

      he’s been AT SEA, zoe. not a whole lot you could do from across the ocean.

      zoegirl:

      and when we do, i don’t wanna be unprepared. i told the lady at planned parenthood that i wanna go on the pill, and she said i have to come in and talk to a counselor.

      SnowAngel:

      why the pill? why not condoms?

      zoegirl:

      well, because doug’s a virgin just like i am, so disease-wise, we’re both safe. i’ve thought about it, and the pill’s the right choice for me.

      SnowAngel:

      you could do the patch, u know. that’s what my aunt sadie uses.

      zoegirl:

      have you seen it?

      SnowAngel:

      it’s just this brown plastic-y thing. it looks like a band-aid.

      zoegirl:

      i’m gonna go with the pill.

      zoegirl:

      will you come with me?

      SnowAngel:

      of course

      SnowAngel:

      does doug know?

      zoegirl:

      no, i’m going to surprise him

      zoegirl:

      hey! you should go on the pill too, for when you and logan decide to go for it!

      SnowAngel:

      i don’t think so

      zoegirl:

      why not? don’t you want to?

      SnowAngel:

      of course i do, just … there’s no need to rush things. sometimes the wait makes it all the better.

      zoegirl:

      you’re right, you’re right, i don’t mean to pressure you. i guess i’m just so happy that i’m in love, and i want you and logan to be that happy 2. i mean, you already are, of course. you know what i’m saying.

      zoegirl:

      if only maddie would find someone!

      SnowAngel:

      is she coming to planned parenthood with us?

      zoegirl:

      no, she promised to help her brother move out of their parents’ house. can you believe mark and his girlfriend are finally getting a place of their own?

      SnowAngel:

      it’s taken long enuff

      SnowAngel:

      how’s pelt-woman doing, anyway? hairy as ever?

      zoegirl:

      hairy as ever, or so i assume. maddie still doesn’t call her by her real name, if that tells you anything.

      SnowAngel:

      do we even know her real name?

      zoegirl:

      i don’t remember. do you?

      zoegirl:

      omg, how horrible!

      SnowAngel:

      well, she probably doesn’t know our names either. we’re just “maddie’s little friends.”

      zoegirl:

      maddie’s little friends who are off to planned parenthood …

      SnowAngel:

      ppl have no idea, do they? that we’re growing up.

      zoegirl:

      but *we* know … and one of these days they’ll figure it out.

      SnowAngel:

      just hopefully not until after graduation. *wink, wink*

      Thu, Feb 9, 9:11 PM E.S.T.

      mad maddie:

      there is nothing—nothing, i tell you—worse than itchy toes.

      SnowAngel:

      except for itchy palms. HATE itchy palms.

      mad maddie:

      toes r worse. the itch is on the knuckle part, and it’s driving me nuts.

      mad maddie:

      but i actually didn’t text to tell you that. i texted to tell you about vincent. i went to his house today and found him LOOKING AT PORN ON THE INTERNET!

      SnowAngel:

      ewww!

      mad maddie:

      i strolled into his room and there it was, up on the screen. i was like, DEAR JESUS, SAVE THIS BOY!

      SnowAngel:

      what is it with guys and porn on the internet? do ALL guys like porn from the internet?

      mad maddie:

      hmm. you want the true answer, or the angela-friendly answer?

      SnowAngel:

      you don’t think logan looks at porn, do you?

      mad maddie:

      no, no, no. of course not.

      SnowAngel:

      that’s the angela-friendly answer, isn’t it?

      SnowAngel:

      oh, nvm

      SnowAngel:

      my new friend andre doesn’t look at porn on the internet, i know he doesn’t.

      mad maddie:

      what, cuz he’s gay you think that? poor innocent angela.

      mad maddie:

      and you don’t have to say “my new friend.” i go to school with andre too.

      SnowAngel:

      yeah, yeah, yeah, but i’m SURE he doesn’t look at porn. at least not the kind that vincent looks at.

      mad maddie:

      well, with vincent, it’s straight-up girl porn, and it’s just who he is. i’m like, “ya gotta love him,” u know?

      SnowAngel:

      “ya gotta love him”??? maddie, PLEASE tell me yr not doing what i think yr doing!

      mad maddie:

      which would be …?

      SnowAngel:

      crushing on vincent! falling for the bad boy!

      mad maddie:

      whoa—me, falling for VINCENT?!

      SnowAngel:

      i personally can’t believe you’re even friends with him, given that he’s so tight with jana. how do you get your head around that?

      mad maddie:

      i don’t. don’t know what the guy sees in her.

      SnowAngel:

      have you asked him?

      mad maddie:

      he says she’s fun to party with. is that a guy response or what?

      mad maddie:

      anywayz, why the inquistion? you have andre, who’s your “new friend.” i have vincent, my spanish class friend. who entertains me.

      SnowAngel:

      and makes you hot.

      mad maddie:

      give me a break. that is not true, angela! and not that it’s any of your beeswax, but he’s got a thing for lila.

      SnowAngel:

      uh, hate to say it, but it’s not like you’ve let that stop you before. chive was totally dating whitney when you guys did your little fuck-buddy thing.

     
    mad maddie:

      i am so not gonna respond to that. ancient history, a.

      mad maddie:

      and “fuck buddy” is hardly the term, since i never even got naked with the guy.

      SnowAngel:

      next thing you know, it’ll be YOU jaunting off to planned parenthood, and i’ll be alone in the corner wearing black, a virgin forever.

      mad maddie:

      save the drama for yo mama. vincent and i are just buds.

      SnowAngel:

      u could look at porn together. and eat popcorn.

      mad maddie:

      and as for being a virgin forever, you’re way more likely to leave the V-club than I am—that is if things with logan are as good as you say.

      SnowAngel:

      shuddup. when and if logan and i have sex is

      mad maddie:

      yessss?

      SnowAngel:

      hold on—mary kate just texted. LOTS of !!!!s.

      mad maddie:

      dum di dum, dum di dum

      mad maddie:

      i’m practicing my typing … abcdefg

      mad maddie:

      STILL practicing my typing … hijklmnop

      SnowAngel:

      ok, now THAT was weird

      mad maddie:

      what?

      SnowAngel:

      maddie, tell me the truth. is something up with zoe? has she been saying things about me to anyone?

      mad maddie:

      what are you talking about?

      SnowAngel:

      according to mary kate, paige said zoe thinks i was FLIRTING with doug at lunch.

      SnowAngel:

      *holds out hands in bewilderment* was i flirting with doug at lunch?

      mad maddie:

      angela, you flirt with every 2-legged male on the planet.

      SnowAngel:

      but it doesn’t MEAN anything. zoe knows that.

      SnowAngel:

      do you think she seriously has a problem with me talking to doug?

      mad maddie:

      yes, she probably thinks yer trying to STEAL HER MAN

      SnowAngel:

      that’s ridiculous!

      SnowAngel:

      omg, i’m gonna txt her and see what’s going on.

      mad maddie:

      angela, i was teasing!

      mad maddie:

      angela?

      mad maddie:

      BUT MY TOES R STILL ITCHING!

      Thu, Feb 9, 9:53 PM E.S.T.

      SnowAngel:

      zo, did u talk to paige jensen at any point today?

      zoegirl:

      i sat in front of her in AP English, but i wouldn’t say we talked. why?

      SnowAngel:

      well, did u say anything to anybody that could have been passed on to paige? like to kristin, maybe?

      zoegirl:

      could you be a little more specific?

      SnowAngel:

      ok, this is stupid, but i’m just gonna say it. i know you think i was hogging doug’s attention today, but do you honestly think i was FLIRTING with him?

      SnowAngel:

      cuz that was a LONG time ago when i somewhat (sorta) threw myself at him, and anyway i would never flirt with him cuz he’s going out with YOU, which i would hope you would know!

      zoegirl:

      what? i *do* know that. when did i say you were flirting with him?!

      SnowAngel:

      and the more i think about it, the more it makes me mad. i don’t wanna go around worrying about every last thing i say or do around him, so if you have a problem with the way i’m acting, would you plz just tell me instead of talking about me behind my back?

      zoegirl:

      angela. STOP.

      zoegirl:

      did paige say i was talking about you behind your back?

      SnowAngel:

      mary kate overheard paige talking to some junior, and paige said that you said i was embarrassing myself with doug, and that i needed to keep my hormones to myself!

      zoegirl:

      ???

      zoegirl:

      i never said ANY of that!

      SnowAngel:

      r u sure?

      zoegirl:

      angela, i just 6 hours ago asked you as my dear friend to go to planned parenthood with me so that one day doug and i can have sex. would i do that if i thought you were flirting with him?

      SnowAngel:

      well, what about kristin? after all, she already told you what a harlot i am!

      zoegirl:

      kristin made *one comment* about how much you talked to him. i shouldn’t have even told you.

      SnowAngel:

      what else aren’t you telling me?

      zoegirl:

      nothing!

      zoegirl:

      *do* you still have a thing for him?

      SnowAngel:

      NO!

      SnowAngel:

      but if you didn’t say any of the things paige says you did …

      SnowAngel:

      i’m confused. why would paige say you did?

      zoegirl:

      i have no idea. call her and ask.

      SnowAngel:

      yeah right. i’ve never even had a class with her. i’m gonna call her up and be like, “oh, btw, why were u talking trash about me?”

      zoegirl:

      then call mary kate and ask *her*. or call kristin. somebody is obviously mixed up.

      zoegirl:

      seriously, angela, i’m a little hurt you would think that of me!

      SnowAngel:

      well I’M a little hurt YOU would think that of ME!

      zoegirl:

      but i didn’t! i *don’t*!!!

      zoegirl:

      listen, i think we better end this convo, ok?!

      SnowAngel:

      zoe, wait!

      zoegirl:

      why, so you can yell at me some more?

      SnowAngel:

      agh. i’m SORRY. i’m sorry, i’m sorry, i’m sorry!

      SnowAngel:

      zo?

      zoegirl:

      i’m here. i just don’t know where this even came from.

      SnowAngel:

      mary kate thought i should know, that’s all.

      zoegirl:

      except there’s nothing TO know. you’re getting worked up over nothing.

      zoegirl:

      remember last semester when you made brownies to cheer me up, after my mom got mad at me for missing the early decision deadline for princeton? only i didn’t *know* that’s why you’d made them, and i didn’t eat any, and you got really pissed?

      SnowAngel:

      i used aunt sadie’s french chocolate. they were the most delicious brownies ever.

      zoegirl:

      you told me to tell you the next time you overreacted about something. well, here i am telling you.

      SnowAngel:

      ok, ok, ok

      zoegirl:

      you need to have faith in me. i love you, and i would never talk about you behind your back. all right?

      SnowAngel:

      except u did—with kristin

      zoegirl:

      ANGELA!

      SnowAngel:

      *baby deep breath. mama deep breath. big daddy deep breath*

      zoegirl:

      um … is this some new kind of therapy?

      SnowAngel:

      yes, i learned it from aunt sadie, who got it from 1 of her friends who teaches pre-school.

      zoegirl:

      and did it work? do you maybe want to tell me that you love me too?

      SnowAngel:

      of COURSE i do. and i’m sorry for freaking. i am.

      SnowAngel:

      *blinks humbly at friend* are we still on for tomorrow?

      zoegirl:

      we better be!

      Thu, Feb 9, 10:20 PM E.S.T.

      SnowAngel:

      hey mads. zoe denied it all, but i called mary kate and she’s SURE that’s what she heard.

      SnowAngel:

      u don’t think zoe’s lying, do u?

      mad maddie:


      i’ve never known zoe to be a liar

      SnowAngel:

      yeah-huh. she lied to her mom when she said she’d apply to princeton early decision, when she never planned to actually do it.

      mad maddie:

      that was zoe being passive-aggressive, not outright lying. and she DID get her application in eventually.

      SnowAngel:

      well, maybe it’s the same thing here. maybe she said something about me in a passive-aggressive sort of way, and it got twisted around.
