The Queen B* and the Homecoming King

by Crista McHugh

  The utter realization that things couldn’t be more perfect than they were now.

  I’d been hard.

  I’d been cruel.

  I’d been and maybe still was the Queen B*.

  But thanks to my very own Prince Charming, I’d been pushed into becoming something more than the stereotypical mean girl. I discovered that sometimes compassion takes more strength than justice and that I could still earn respect while being soft. I learned to see things from the perspective of others and think about the consequences before acting.

  And in the end, I lost my heart to the most wonderful guy imaginable.

  Of course, once the song ended, I opened my eyes to find Sanchez checking out Summer’s enhanced cleavage. “Maybe I should tell him they’re fake.”

  I took a step toward them, but Brett pulled me back and held me close. “I thought you were going to be nice to my friends.”

  “I said try.”

  “Let me help you try harder,” he murmured before kissing me one more time and putting my Queen B* thoughts on hold.

  For now.
