Worlds Collide

Chaptet 3

Rory

Paris stormed up to me, I could tell she wasn't happy with me. But then again, when isn't she happy with me.

"Paris." I greeted.

"You just had to do it! You couldn't just let me have it! You had to go and steal the top of our class position from me as well!" She shouted.

"Paris, I have no idea what your talking about." I said, leaning against my locker. This is not how I wanted to start my Thursday.

"Yes you do! You had to go and get a perfect score on that stupid test, and get extra credit. Now I'm not top of the class any more!" She shouted.

I froze. "Wait! I'm top of the class?"

"Yes! What are you Patric on steroids?!"

I ignored Paris and rushed the bulletin board, and froze. I did it. No way. Two years and I finally did it! I rushed outside and pulled my phone out, dialing moms number.

"Hello, Independence Inn, Lorelei speaking."

"I did it! I did it! I did it!!" I said through the phone.

"Rory? What did you do? Did you do something sluty?"

"No! I'm top of my class!"

"What?! That's amazing! Tonight we shall celebrate!!"

"I can't believe it! I thought for sure I wouldn't get there, because I came late and I was behind, but I did it. I got there. Made Paris mad but what's new."

"I know, she's crazy! Now, hurry home! You grab the movies, I'll grab the junk. Should we invite Lucas and Keith?"

"Don't care. You can, but I don't mind. Now, I'm getting on the bus. I'll see you soon, love you bye." I hung up and rushed to catch the bus. School was over and I was ready to celebrate.

Lucas, Keith, mom, and I sat in our living room, eating pizza, Chinese, and Luke's diner. Mom grabbed red vines, mallows, marshmallows, Reece's-cups, and popcorn. We were watching Willy Wonka, then the God Father. Mom and I talked and commented through the whole thing. We even got Lucas and Keith to join in on some parts. It was a nice celebration of beating Paris, and being proud of me.

"How can you guys eat so much?" Keith asked.

"It's a gift." I stated.
"Gifted to us by the gods themselves." Mom added, throwing popcorn in her mouth.
"Oh! Do you smell that?" She said, sitting up straight, her smile wide as she stood and crossed towards the window.

Mom and I locked eyes once the window was open. "I smell snow." We whispered, before I jumped up and grabbed my shoes and jacket.

"How long do we have?" I asked.

"Tonight. It's going to happen tonight." She replied, excitement on her face and in her voice. She grabbed her jacket and shoes, and both of us threw the boys stuff at them. "Come on! We'll miss it if we don't hurry!" She shouted, both of us stood by the door and waited. We heard them shuffling around before they appeared in the foyer. We grabbed their arms and dragged them outside.

"What are we doing out here?" Keith asked, rubbing his hands together and blowing into them.

"Waiting." Mom stated, as we continued to walk around in the snow.

"For what?" Lucas asked.

And as if I'm que, snow started falling. Mom and I latched onto each other and smile up at the sky. "Snow." I whispered.
I turned my head to look at Lucas and smiled brightly. I saw shock in his eyes and face, before he smiled and moved to stand next to me.
And the four of us stood out there and enjoyed the snow.
