Chapter 8- Slutty Brownies
Paige's POV
I finish tying my shoe, and stand up leaving the dorm and stretching out my arms. It's six in the morning on Sunday, no one else will be up so I will be able to run in piece. Every Sunday I actually get up at six and go for a run. It calms me, and gets me back into focus for school. Tomorrow I have to tutor Jake as well, I'm gonna need to be calm for that. I jog from my dorm to the horse barn, which is a mile there and back. So two miles. I pass by all of the girl dorms, on my way towards the horses, and once I get to the barn I stop and look out at all the horses. Some are grazing and others are doing nothing. When I decide to head, back I jog again. Three fourths of the way there my shoe comes on tied, so I stop, putting foot up against a tree to retie it. I start up again at slower pace, I look over at the dorms, everything is so peaceful. No lights on, no loud noises. It sounds and looks like it was a calm night. I see the dorm next time mine, and I see the door open. I wonder who else is up there early? When Jake slips out, I stop jogging. He pulls his sweat shirt on and I take a breath, turning up my ipod. God, of course it wasn't a calm night. Jake had to have a girl! I slip over to the other side of the street, no way do I want him to see me. I continue running. I'm now mad, and no where close to calm. But why am I mad?
I thought better of him. But why? It's not like he is going to change for me, why would he since we're aren't even really friends. I wonder who it was.. I know that's Carmen's dorm, I wonder who else is all in there. Then I see the door open again and Wyatt comes out. Oh god Carmen. I role my eyes, and cross the street again. I'm at my dorm, I go inside and shower getting ready for the day. What will I do?
"Thanks for calling." I say to Robbie, as we leave the resturaunt. He called me around two o'clock asking if I would like to go out to eat with him and then practice play lines.
"No problem, so... who's place?" he asks, and I shrug I could careless. "Do you have your book even?" he asks. I nod, pulling it out. "Well, then.. how about mine." I nod sounds good. He pulls in and we go up to his room together, we practice lines for a good two hours and then we lose focus. "Well that was a good practice while it lasted!" he sighs, tossing his book on his desk. I laugh agreeing with him.
"How are you songs coming along?" I ask, wondering if he has practiced them at all. I know I haven't. I only have one song anyways, but I haven't even listened to the recording Mrs. Oliver emailed me.
" I've listened to the recordings, but that's about it. I have a private lessong with her, tomorrow after school so she can work on them with me. I nod that sounds like a good idea. "I love how you say that line introducing yourself to Herc! You do it perfectly." He says.
"Megera, my friends call me Meg, at least they would if I had any friends. So did they give a name along with all those rippling pectorals?" I quote my line. Its the only I have memorized.
"Perfect!" He sighs, and messes up my hair. I get up laughing and going to his bathroom to fix my hair. I come out checking the clock, it's nine now. "What to do on a Sunday night.." He sighs, and I nod. Now what? "Oh I know! I have all the ingrediants for you two make those brownie things, you should make them for me!" He smiles.
"Fine."I say and we head down to the kitchen. I seen this recipe called Slutty Brownies on the web a while ago and decided to make them. They are so good! All you do is take chocolate chip cookie dough, and put it in the bottom of the brownie pan, then put one layer of oreos on it,and then the brownie batter. Cook it for however long the brownie batter calls for and then it's done!
As I spread out the cookiedough, which is the hardest part to do, I listen to Robbie practicing his line. His dorm is kind of dead tonight, everyones trying to get there homework done I'm guessing. I take the package of oreos away from him, scolding him for eating them, and I lay out the oeros one by one. Then I mix up the brownie mix.
