Spider Quinn 07: Ashes to Ashes - Part 2

Sandi didn’t believe her eyes when she saw Stacy and Quinn approaching. Quinn had her hair in the style Stacy usually wore, and was wearing clothes very similar to those Stacy usually wore. Stacy had her hair in the way that Quinn had been wearing hers after her father’s passing and was wearing clothes almost identical to what Quinn usually wore. “What are you two doing?” she asked with annoyance.

“What?” Quinn asked. “We can’t experiment? Isn’t that part of what the Fashion Club is about?”

“Yeah!” Stacy said, in a slightly confident tone.

Sandi seethed. She was being accommodating to Quinn, really. She then saw Tiffany arrive.


Tiffany knew something was up. She was momentarily confused, then realised that Quinn and Stacy had swapped looks for the day. That was fine with her, although she probably wouldn’t do it herself. She was sure that any of the other’s looks would make her look fat. She looked at Sandi and knew that there was trouble immediately ahead. “What’s going on?” she asked in her usual slow tone.


“Don’t you see?” Sandi asked in response to Tiffany’s question.

“That Quinn’s dressed like Stacy and Stacy like Quinn?” Tiffany asked.

“Yes!” Sandi said.

“No-othing wrong with it, just as there’s no-othing wrong with Quinn’s hair,” Tiffany responded.

‘Very good, Tiffany,’ Quinn thought with a smile. She had initially suggested to Stacy to swap styles for the day as a way to hide bed hair after she had slept in, but from the reactions at school so far, she felt it was a good idea.

“Nothing wrong?” Sandi asked rhetorically. “Nothing wrong? Emergency Fashion Club meeting AT LUNCH!” she then stalked away.

Quinn breathed heavily and looked to Stacy, who was breathing heavily. “Deep breaths, Stacy. We’ll get through this.”

“But!”

“We’ll talk to her together,” Quinn said. “Right, Tiffany.”

“Yes,” Tiffany said without hesitation.

Stacy nodded. “Together.”
