Play your part, Hailey. Come on.
I placed a hand on my hip as I looked at him. I let a little of my cool girl character slip to help me with the act. "Got a problem with that?"
The guy suddenly cleared his throat and shook his head. "Uh...no. Sorry. It's just an...unusual name." He said. "My name is Romeo."
...Romeo? Like in Romeo and Juliet?
Wow. And he had the audacity about questioning the name Waldo.
"Nice to meet you, R-Romeo." I nodded as I tried to keep a cool face even though I badly wanted to laugh. It's hard not to say his name without laughing. But I have to keep it all in.

"Mom, why am I here?" I asked. Today after school, my mother texted me to come to her office along with the Pandorgriffs.After the contract has been signed yesterday I thought for sure that my job here was done, but nooo!She just has to call me here.Sure we don't have classes today since the teachers have a seminar or something, but that doesn't mean that she can just take that little happiness of mine and call me here.Boo!My mother only frowned. "I asked you yesterday to help with the preparation for the fashion show and you agreed, but clearly you were not listening." She was handing me clothes that were supposed to be the ones that The Pandrogriffs were about to showcase.

"Hailey, I promise we can pull this off." Said Sophie with a sweet and honest smile on her face. "We just need someone to teach us." She then gave me a hopeful look as did the rest of them.Well, almost because Gabrielle was too busy looking away and cursing under his breath.I rubbed the back of my neck as I heaved a sigh. "This was not part of our deal, but if it means that you will be able to fulfill then alright. I'll help." I said defeatedly while the rest of them cheered in glee."Hailey, do you have any experience walking on fashion shows?" Kevin asked.At that question, I averted my gaze. "A long time ago." I answered shortly before returning my gaze at them. "Alright. Stand back and watch the pro." I started forward and headed to the back of the stage wher
The School's Cool Girl Chapter 23 Stuck In Traffic
Joining the fashion show was never ever on my bucket list or life goals. Believe me. I don't want to join any fashion show again.But who was I to refuse? With my mother's dazzled eyes and the nonstop persuasiveness of her workers, I was left with no choice but to enter.Not as Hailey though(thank goodness) but as the witch named Felisha Hughes. You know, the cursed pink wig?Yeah. That's her.And since the purpose of me becoming Felisha is to hide my identity, the only people who knows about my secret is my parents, Kaila, some trusted employees, and of course the student councils.Days and weeks have passed. The rehearsals, diet, and fitting almost consumed all of my scheduled free time especially since I have to shar

"FELISHA!!" Sophie screamed. Her voice laced with excitement that mirrored her beaming face.Her entrance was so sudden that one of the stylists jumped and bumped me from the back making me shove the lipstick into my open mouth. I quickly coughed and pulled the lipstick out only to find out in sheer horror that the tip was gone and I was feeling something stuck in my throat.I began to choke, which caught the attention of everyone in the room but they did nothing to help.Well, save for the panic shouts and screams.Kaila took that perfect time when she entered the room. "What's with all the loud noise?" She asked and her eyes landed on me- coughing and holding my neck - before it landed on the empty lipstick on my hand. "You did not just -" She shook her head and

A bunch of different brands showed off their own style for the school look and have their own unique signature look. Some were really freaking damn awesome while some were just plain weird. Models after models - male and female - entered the stage. As a new company brand starts, a host will be there to announce the name, and immediately, a screen would pop out and show the photoshoots in different scenes of the models and their outfits.Finally, it was our turn."And now, the last brand will showcase their own unique style. Ladies and gentlemen; the Collin Couture!" Our brand name was called. The crowd cheered when they heard my mom's clothing line.The first batch of models went out. Strutting and posing at blazing cameras at the center stage just like we rehearsed. Smiling and looking proud and beautiful. An

My eyes nearly fell from their sockets when I heard the names. "Is Emma Watson there too?""I think so!!""Girl, outta my way. I'm gonna take a sneak peek." I moved to pass her and ran as quick as my heels could get me without tripping to the entrance.Gabrielle was there as he was ready to take his turn to walk. He saw me coming and frowned. "Get back. It's not your turn yet." He said. Gabrielle wears the cool look with a plain white V-neck shirt, a mint green leather material jacket, blue pants, and neon green and blue shoes."I wanna see Percy, Harry, and Hermione!!" I was probably talking nonsense to him when I called Logan, Daniel, and Emma for their famous role names."I don't know who they are but back out for now. You

I stifled a yawn as I got into my ready position. It was Monday again. A week has passed since the fashion show and this morning we have our gym class. Today is track and field, which requires all the students to run the whole field 5 times. You can see all the long faces in each student under the burning heat of the sun.At least the girls are, but most of the boys seemed keen on showing off as they did stretches and making sure to flex their muscles for the ladies."On the count of three, everyone will run. There will be no walking or jogging. I want to run. If I see you walking then expect that I will deduct it from your grade. You can only rest when you complete the 5 rounds!" Our gym t

"So what is this thing that you guys want to talk about?" I asked as soon I closed the door behind me. As I promised, I headed for the student council room as soon as classes were done.They all looked up at me as soon as I entered. Leo sat on his usual seat behind the table while Sandy, Xander, and Sheen sat on the sofa. Sheen and Xander sat on one while Sandy sat on the other opposite to them. In front of them was a stack of magazines on the coffee table."Have a seat, Miss Collins." Said Leo and motioned for me to take the seat beside Sandy. I made my way to the couch. Sandy still seemed ticked off at me and didn't even bother to say hi like she usually does. I guess she was still bummed about the cafeteria incident.As soon as I was seated, I gave Leo an expectant look. "Well?" I asked. "What is it?"

My first instinct is to run away with Xander. My second instinct is to run towards Vanessa and tackle her. That girl deserves whatever body pain I am planning on inflicting on her. I guess it was not enough for her to ruin me. Now, she wants to drag Xander along too. She obviously needed some much needed drama to put her on the spot again. To what extent is she willing to ruin people’s lives just so she can stay in the spotlight? I have never been so angry at anyone before, but I will deal with my emotions later. My priority right now is Xander. Looking at Xander, I was surprised to see him standing so calmly in front of me. Well, he wasn’t entirely calm. He was shaking, but it wasn’t from fear or anxiety. He looks like he is about to burst out laughing. What is he so excited about? “Xander?” I grab his hand. “Xander, come on. Let’s get you out of here. I will call my dad to pick us up.” Xander’s gaze softens when he turns to me. “Thanks, Hailey.” He kisses my forehead, which
The School's Cool Girl Chapter 82 Unwanted Paparazzi
The big day has arrived, and even though I have complete faith in my mother's design abilities, I can not help but feel nervous. I have seen the design before, but when I look in the mirror, I cannot help but admire the dress. It’s a light lavender dress with a sweetheart neckline and a thin laced strap to keep it in place—my mom knows I was never gifted in the frontal area. The skirt is a flare shape, with the hemline ending perfectly a few centimeters from the floor. Most of the beadwork is at the neckline and waist since the material used for the skirt is chromatic. It shines perfectly on its own. My mother didn’t want me to look too mature so my hair is left in a side loose braid. “Perfect!” My mother enters the dressing room just as I finish clasping dangling earrings in my ears. I shy away from the mirror at how my mother is continuously gushing at me and my outfit. “Darling, you look wonderful! Of course, I expect no less from my daughter, who carries my perfect genes!” “N
The School's Cool Girl Chapter 81 Laying it Out
Preparation for the dance has been going smoothly. Our efforts have come to fruition when everything is finally coming together. I hate every second of the work, but getting to see the final outcome feels somehow rewarding. Speaking of which, while we were still preparing the venue, the others figured out that Xander and I were already dating. I’m pretty sure that was the case when we told them, because their reaction was a robotic surprise, like they hadn’t tried practicing it. “Wow. We totally had no idea.” “Really? We hadn’t noticed.” “Congratulations!” Only Leo had a really genuine reaction from the group, even lightly clapping his hands in celebration. This world needs a lot more Leo—so pure and innocent. The rest of us can just die (I'm kidding!). “See? I told you they’d know.” Xander crosses his arms and pointedly looks toward Sandy. “I bet you already have proofs and created a group chat where only you, Sheen, and Leo are in it to show the photos.” Leo and Sheen exch
The School's Cool Girl Chapter 80 Just A Normal Lunch
Taking a photoshoot with The Pandorgriffs always feels like bliss for me, despite the number of times that we’ve done this before. It seems that I will always be their fan, no matter what. Actually, that’s not the only thing that makes me excited to work with them. It’s also the fact that I get to work with Xander too. It’s only been a day since we started dating, but it seems like I can’t help but feel light and happy whenever we see each other. He keeps meeting my gaze during our turn and giving me secret grins and a wink. If Xander could be an animal, he would definitely be a fox. Sandy, the ever so reigning queen of gossip, managed to catch that Xander and I have been looking at each other all throughout work. This hellhound of a girl literally has been giving us both a look of suspicion and, I swear, I think her nostrils are flaring like she caught the scent of a hot topic. Xander and I haven’t told the others about our relationship yet. We’re not trying to hide it from them
The School's Cool Girl Chapter 79 Is it Hot?
As the school’s cool girl, I have numerous people confessing to me on a daily basis, but having someone that I know confess to me, especially one that I like, is just embarrassing—in a good way. You’d thought that I would jump in glee and throw sparkles and rainbows at everyone’s face out of joy, but nope. Before I could even give my answer, Leo and the others came back. The next day, I was so tired. I could not even sleep just thinking about it. We’re supposed to head to the mall today to buy the materials needed to make the design. Of course, Xander is going to be there. Unexpectedly, I arrived at the meeting place earlier than planned. I’ve got nothing better to do because if I continue to stay at home, I might just keep staring at my reflection and recalling the confession. It was a confession, right? I mean, I am almost certain that it was. Before we parted ways, Xander assured me that he doesn’t need an answer right away and is willing to wait. Actually, I really wanted t

I rarely get into serious situations that I give a damn about. Right now, I badly wish that I was in one of those situations so I could just laugh and ignore it. I guess I have not gotten my luck as Hailey May Collins working yet because the situation in question involves Xander and the others. “You guys are going to disband?” My tongue felt heavy when I said it. I knew what I heard, but I still could not believe it. “Can you tell me why?” “It’s not exactly a secret, but I assure you that it was a mutual agreement on everyone’s part.” Xander looks uncomfortable, making me wish that I hadn’t asked the question in the first place. “I’m sorry. You don’t have to answer my question if you are feeling uncomfortable.” I hastily added and avoided his gaze. As much as I am dying to know their reasons, I should still respect their privacy. Xander’s chortle comes as a surprise to me. I stare at him, wondering what it is that he finds so amusing. Currently, I feel a little conflicted about
The School's Cool Girl Chapter 77 Mulling Over
The very next day, I was humming as I headed to the student council room after taking my special exams—I’m not going to talk about how well or poorly I did. It doesn’t matter. I feel like I have accumulated enough points to graduate anyway.I met Sandy at the door, and I gave her the brightest mischievous grin that I could muster. Sandy just smiled at me in return before heading inside the council room. I still have the blackmail photo of her and Sheen on their secret date that I am dying to show her. Because my exams are finally out of the way, I have no choice but to participate in my student council duties. I don’t mind doing it these days, and my old self would laugh at me if I admitted it out loud, but hey, I am here to have fun with Sandy. It’s payback for all the teasing that she put me through. “Hey, Sandy.” I smile, heading over to her and plastering on a smile. Sandy gives me a perplexed look. She’s probably wondering why I wasn’t hostile with her today. “Good day to you,
The School's Cool Girl Chapter 76 Blackmail Photos
“Do you think that they are on a secret date?” “I—” “I think so too. It’s very suspicious.” “Hailey—” “Do you want to secretly take photos of them for future blackmail purposes? I know I would.” I cheerfully as I continue to snap pictures of Sheen and Sandy buying tickets for a random romance movie. “You’re already taking photos of them. What’s even the point of you asking me about it?” I can feel Xander’s tiredness as a sigh escapes him. I believe that his exhaustion comes from him constantly trying to tell me against stalking them, but all his words simply go from one ear to the other. “Let’s go!” I drag him along after the couple finished buying tickets. “Where to?” “To buy some tickets. We’re watching the movie.” “Why?” “...That’s because the movie looks interesting.” Xander gives me a long stare. “You’re still going to spy on them in the cinema, are you?” “...No…?” The words left my lips in a drag, making it sound suspicious. “I mean, I am really interested in watchin
The School's Cool Girl Chapter 75 Taco Place
I wasn’t aware that my mother called Xander and promised to sponsor our attire for the dance. Knowing how I would have reacted, I guess I can understand why my mother kept it a secret in the first place. Still, it would have been better if she had at least given me a hint. Xander and I are sitting not too far from each other. None of us are even speaking. I am sitting casually and bouncing my legs nervously while thinking of ways to strike up a conversation. From how Xander is busy scrolling through his phone, I don’t even know if he would like to talk to me. It’s always been difficult to read Xander’s mood, so I decided to risk it and converse with him. “The weather is nice.” I start. “It’s raining heavily outside, Hailey.” He responded without looking up from his phone. Well, so much for an icebreaker. I should try another approach. “I didn’t know that you were coming.” “I thought your mother told you that I would be coming for the fitting.” This time, Xander did look up. I c
