There they go again with their perfect faces, perfect hair, perfect bodies and perfect lives, I guess. It really makes my heart ache when I see them sauntering around without a care in the world to worry their pretty little heads. If you are wondering who I am talking about, then let me explain. Everyone knows how it works in high school; the various little groups that people often get split up into, whether you really want to or not. Well, somehow during the early days of school I found myself assimilated into the loser group. I guess it had something to do with the fact that I am actually quite clever and therefore a bit of a geek. I don't mind liking geeky stuff, but the territory also comes with certain ignorance towards me from the opposite sex.
Now, let me just confirm that I am indeed a girl and that boys don't seem to be interested in geeky little girls. By little, I mean that I am rather on the short side for my eighteen years of age. I'm not too bad looking, but I am nothing in comparison to the beauties standing before me. I'm not a lesbian, but I can appreciate beauty when I see it and these girls were truly beautiful.
We had referred to them as the bimbos for some time and I think this was more to do with jealousy on our part. I had talked to them on a few brief occasions and they were far from stupid and I could tell that they were really confident. Of course, it's easy being confident when you're absolutely stunning.
There were four of them in total and it was quite amazing how different each of them looked. First there was the total bitch who acted above everyone on the planet, even the other three. Her name was Keisha and she must have been mixed race as her skin had sort of a natural tan leaning towards a darker tone. Her brown hair framed her face and she stood at about a foot and a half taller than me, which wasn't anything to be proud of considering my size. To be honest, her body was perfect from what I had seen of it and she had breasts that I would die for. I noticed her humiliating a few of her fellow students on a number of occasions so I'd always tried to avoid her whenever possible.
Her second in command was Chelsea, also a bitch, but not on the same level as Keisha. She is slightly shorter than her friend and her skin is a bit lighter, but she also has a sort of natural tan. I guess it could be referred to as a sort of an exotic look. It contrasts nicely with her blue eyes and brown highlighted hair. It's a shame that those looks are possessed by such horrible people, or perhaps it's having those looks that has made them so arrogant and ruthless, a most unlikely catch-22. Anyway, I had never really spoken to her as I just figured we wouldn't get along.
Having a British mother and an Indian father had done wonders for the third girl: Sarah. She possessed a curvaceous body and her father's genes had given her a very unique look, which all of the boys pined over. Her cascading brown hair seemed to amplify her facial features and a lot of the girls in school were jealous of how voluminous it always was. She was also the nicest of their group and she didn't have much of an attitude, mostly because she was so beautiful that she didn't need to act horrible to get her way. Her clothing of choice was always a tight top, very short skirt and high heels which showed off her body at all times.
Finally, was Kelly. She was the quiet one of the bunch and also the best looking. She was the only white one of the group, although she obviously liked to sunbathe as her tanned skin made her fit in well with the others. She was a brunette, but I had seen her with blonde hair on a few occasions and both suited her to be completely honest. Her eyes were hazel in colour and she stood a fair bit taller than me, so whenever we bumped into each other she always had to look downwards.
At the start of high school, she was a fairly nice girl, but once she had started to hang around with the others we all noticed a change in her attitude. She wasn't anything like Keisha or Chelsea, but she didn't hide the fact that she knew she was sexy and she always looked down on me and my friends.
It is strange but Kelly actually lives in my street and we used to be friends when we were younger. As we grew up she developed quicker and more favourably than me and we slowly drifted apart. My passions didn't really interest her either, although she did often ask for help with her homework when we were younger, but now she didn't bother. Even though we lived so close we never spoke as we just had nothing in common. She is beautiful and glamorous, whereas I am plain and nerdy.
So, it was completely surprising when one day in school Keisha approached me out of the blue and asked me if I'd like to come to Kelly's surprise 18th birthday party. I felt my face redden when she approached as I was not used to people talking to me and my immediate reaction was to reject her. That was until she informed me that all of my friends would be going,
all
being only three. My friends were Jenny, Emma and Bethany. They were nice girls but all of them were quite plain looking apart from Bethany, who wasn't really blessed in the looks department, poor girl.
I was a bit suspicious with Keisha's offer as I saw no reason why I would be invited. However, I had noticed that my friends had been hanging around the bimbos a lot recently, even though they always treated them like shit. Perhaps if I went to the party I would get to hang around with them too and therefore become popular through association. I wouldn't mind being on the end of occasionally hurtful remarks from them if it meant that a few boys showed an interest. I decided that I would go.
Keisha informed me that the party would be at Kelly's house as they had already run it by her mother. Apparently, her mother had agreed to go visit her sister for a few days so that Kelly could party and have a good time. This seemed pretty nice of her mother, but I remembered that she was always pleasant with me so it was probably true.
The day of the party arrived and upon setting foot outside Kelly's house, I noticed that there was a note on the door. It said that everyone was hiding inside ready to surprise Kelly, so I should bring the note inside and lock the door, then find somewhere to hide in the living room. I took the note and followed the instructions, then made my way through the door into the room.
As soon as I entered Kelly's living room I knew that something was not right. I hadn't been lied to, my friends were at the party but they were all kneeling on the floor, each one next to a different girl and no one was hiding at all. Jenny was kneeling beside Keisha who was sitting comfortably on a chair. To her right, Chelsea and Sarah were sitting on the sofa, with Emily and Bethany kneeling at their feet. Jenny and Emma were sitting facing away from the girls, whereas Bethany was kneeling right in front of Sarah facing towards her.
All three of my friends had their eyes directed towards the floor and I quickly realised that Sarah had her bare feet resting in Bethany's lap. I also noticed that Chelsea was casually running her fingers through Emma's hair, grasping it between them and playing with it absent-mindedly. It all looked very weird to me, particularly as Emma was just sitting there not reacting at all. Meanwhile, Bethany was delicately rubbing Sarah's feet which distracted me from noticing that all of the seated girls were staring intently towards me.
There was a real tension in the air and I could feel myself struggling to cope with the situation. I had pictured the party to be a lot busier allowing me to just blend into the background. However, there were only six other girls there, half of which I knew really didn't like me. Also, the way in which my friends were acting was really freaking me out. It was as if they were all submissive to the bimbos. I knew that they'd been spending some time with them, but it had never crossed my mind that the bitches had been taking advantage of their eagerness to please.
"Well, it looks like Kelly's present has arrived," said Keisha, breaking the silence while grinning from ear to ear.
Her words confused me as I hadn't bothered to bring a present and I really didn't know what she was talking about. Also, Kelly was nowhere in sight which was strange since it was her party. The obvious giggling of the two sat on the sofa didn't make me feel any better either. None of my friends bothered to react to what Keisha had said and I didn't take this as a good sign.
I was startled from my daydream when Chelsea casually snapped her fingers, resulting in an immediate response from Emma. I watched in astonishment as my friend turned around on her knees, removed Chelsea's shoes and began kneading the soles of her feet.
Chelsea couldn't stop herself from grinning as she nestled back into the sofa while Emma was forced to rub her sweaty feet. "Hmmm, that feels nice, good girl," she said while closing her eyes and obviously enjoying Emma's fingers as they worked away.
I really couldn't stand that bitch and she had such an arrogant look on her face that I wanted so much to wipe off. Here was my good friend belittling herself for her satisfaction. It wasn't that she had her kneeling rubbing her feet that bothered me, it was the humiliating way in which she had just snapped her fingers and Emma obeyed immediately. This confused me; it seemed as if she had been trained by Chelsea. I decided that I didn't care who was there, I had to say something.
"Emma! Why are you letting her boss you around?" I heard myself shouting and I was quite pleasantly surprised that I had found the courage to speak up. I may not have been the largest or most assertive of girls, but I had no intention of watching my friends being treated like shit.
"Go on, doggy, tell her," said Chelsea in a snotty tone.
"Because it is my job to make sure that Miss Chelsea is always comfortable, it is what she deserves and I am happy to please her," explained Emma, which made absolutely no sense to me.
I stood glued to the spot, repeatedly attempting to say something but not being able to find the words. Meanwhile, Chelsea stared straight at me enjoying my anxiety, and the sight before me wasn't helping me regain any composure. Sarah and Chelsea were sitting comfortably while my two friends were kneeling massaging their feet like a couple of servants.
"Emma, I don't understand what's going on," I muttered.
