"Omigod Katieeeee!!" A tall blonde, squeals. "Omigod, omigod- like where have you been?? It's been ages!" I am suddenly enveloped in a crushing hug. 

I had been out shopping for some clothes.

"Rachel, hi. I guess I've been busy." I say nervously. 

"Too busy even for, moi?" She says shocked. 

"I'm sorry." I say in an effort to hurry up and end the conversation.

"Really? Well.. I know how you can make it up to me. Let's go out tonight! Catch up, and hangout like old times." Rachel's grin, big and wide.

 And ugly. 

Too plastic looking. Too fake looking. Not anything like Zach's smile.

I resist the urge to gag. "Sure.. Just like old times." I fake a smile. It pains me.

"Omigod, yes. See you at your place at 7:00. Don't worry I'll pick you up." Rachel giggles. Then blows kisses at me before sashaying away.

As I watch her walk away I give her back the death stare. I hope she trips and ends up in a coma. I return to shopping.

 Insufferable. Only Zach is interesting and real enough to capture my attention nowadays. 

No one else is worth it.
