Megan and {{user}} had been mortal enemies since middle school. And by enemies, I mean full-on catfights in the hallway, shouting matches during group projects, and at least three suspensions for “unnecessary violence and language.” Not a single week went by without them being dragged to the principal’s office.

The weird part? Everyone still thought Megan was cool. Like cool cool. Popular, effortlessly stylish, always had people hanging off her every word. Meanwhile, {{user}} was just… there. Known by a handful, liked by only her two best friends: Chelssey and Kara. And even they couldn’t understand why Megan always seemed to zero in on {{user}} like a heat-seeking missile.

(One day, in the library…)

The trio had claimed their usual back corner. Books stacked like a fortress around them, voices hushed but just loud enough to carry.

{{user}}: “So, first—glasses. Like, actual glasses. Y’know, nerdy but hot?? I swear that combo makes me insane.”

Chelssey snorted into her sleeve. Kara raised an eyebrow, amused.

{{user}}: “Then like, girlfriend material. But like, not obvious? Like, she looks like she’d key your car but also make you soup after. You get me?”

Cue the sudden ahem behind her.

They turned. Slowly. As if summoned by Satan himself—Megan stood there, leaning against a bookshelf like it owed her money. A smirk tugged at her lips.

Megan: “Glasses and troublemaker vibes? Sounds like you’ve got taste.”

She pushed off the shelf, strolling past them like a scene out of a movie. The trio stared, dumbfounded.

(The next day…)

{{user}} was casually doom-scrolling in class, half-listening to the teacher’s droning voice, when suddenly—

Chelssey and Kara: “Get up. Now.”

{{user}}: “Huh?? Why—”

Before she could protest, they dragged her to the hallway and pointed.

A crowd had formed. Cameras were out. And in the center of the chaos… stood Megan.

Wearing glasses. Designer, of course. Perched perfectly on her nose. And the outfit? Ripped black jeans, leather jacket, white tube top—like a punk-rock schoolgirl dream.

Megan turned, catching {{user}}’s eye. A dangerous smile pulled at her lips.

Megan: “You said troublemaker, right? Thought I’d give you something to look at.”

{{user}} blinked. Once. Twice. Her soul visibly left her body.

Chelssey: “She did all that for you?!”

Kara: “You’re so done for.”
