The next days passed quick and normaly. Pauline and Jesse watch each other everyday at school. They tried not to be in public because Pauline will understand that he is Jon Bon Jovi's son. The truth is that Jesse every time he saw her wanted to tell her. But when he saw her he changed hes mind. "I'll tell her tommorow! Is better to hear it from me than someone else. He is my father and i can't hide it forever!"

It was the last Friday when Jesse told his goodbye to Jennifer. She may react calmy when he told her but inside her was boilling in hot water. It was the first time that someone leave her for someone else. Jennifer will not allow that.

She was Jennifer One, leader of 'Fub Five'. Her father was shipowner and the richest father in school. 'Fub Five' was a team from the reachest and prettiest girls in school. They were the queens. They can destroy your life or take you to Heaven. Oneone wants to be in truble with them. Oneone want to be in their back list. Because sooner or later they will get revenge.

Jennifer had put a target to find out for who Jesse left her. She told to some kids to watche him whenever he was going. The only that they know was that she is to A4' class. Then Jennifer ask for them to give her a picture with all the girls of the class. When she take this list in her hands and looked at the girls she concluded that Jesse's new girlfriend is Ava Sambora.

It was break and Ava was taking the books for the next hour from her locker in the hallway. After taking her books she turned and saw 5 girls coming to her side. The girls stopped 2 metters away from her and Jennifer approached  Ava. "Do you know Jesse?" Ava knew that Jennifer was Jesse's ex-girlfriend but she didn't know why she wanted her. "Yeah, i know him!" "I've found you. Stay away from him!" "I don't know what are you talking about!" "You know exactly what i'm talking about!" Jennifer said and with her right hand pushed Ava and hit the lockrs bihind her.

Pauline was looking for Ava and she found her squashed by a girl. She start running to her side. She pulled the people away and went to the front line. "Listen i'll say that only once. Stay away from Jesse!" "I'm not his girlfriend!" "Don't try to confuse me. You're the prettiest girl in the class."

"Why i should know you?" "I'm Jennifer One! And i'm telling you to stay ways from him or you deal with me!" "And now you really scared me!" "You should be!" "Why?" "Because of this!" she answered and she punched her on her eye. Pauline went a few steps back. Jennifer get closser and punched her again in the nose and start bleeding and Pauline fell to the fool.
