Teasing: Is Zoe Being a Pest?

"Wait! Where are you going?" Nadine called after Athena. "Why are you talking to her?" Zoe asked, walking up from behind Nadine. "You know that bible-thumper hates you." "Don't call her that," Nadine snapped. She hated that term. "What's with you today? And why are you hanging around *these* guys?" Zoe asked, gesturing towards Biff and Jay. "I'm not. They're hanging around *me*. Listen, just leave me alone, okay? We're not friends." Nadine started to walk away, but Zoe caught up with her. "What do you mean by that? Of *course* we're friends. We've been close friends for years." "From *your* point-of-view, maybe. But not *mine*." Nadine looked down at herself again and groaned. If only she could change out of this gothic outfit, maybe she could feel a little more normal. "Just stay away from me."
