The Icee Incident

Chapter 1

Mindy flopped onto her bed and sighed. "My life is so boring." she grumbled. Then her sister Heather came barreling in. "Heather if you dare-!"

Boing!

"Heather! Seriously?" but Heather just laughed. "Get off." Mindy said as she pushed her sister. "Oof." Heather gasped, as she hit the floor. "Niña immadura." Mindy grumbled. Heather glared. Then:

Ohmygosh, ohmygosh, ohmygosh! It's my best friend calling me again! ...

Mindy reached over to her counter, and grabbed her ringing phone. She answered. "Sam."

"It's not just Sam. It's Alex, too." Mindy heard as another call joined. "And Christi!" her other BFF squealed.

"Okay. What do you guys- Heather! Vete! Juega con tus muñecas o algo!" Mindy shouted, as she pulled the phone away from her mouth. Heather stopped nudging her sister, grumbled and went to play with their pet cat.

"Okay. What do you guys want to do? You obviously called me for some reason. And it's been a boring weekend so far." Mindy said.

"Let's go to the mall. Or the movies." suggested Christi. "Well, Insurgent is playing." Alex said. "And there's a shoe discount at Payless!" Christi added. "And I want to buy the new Imagine Dragons album." Sam said. "Mall it is!" Mindy announced.

"Mom i'm going to the mall with Sam, Alex and Christi! I'll be back in a couple of hours!" she shouted from the doorway. "Tienes dinero para el auto bus?" Mindy's mom answered from her place in the living room sofa where she was watching La Voz Kids.

"Sí!" Answered Mindy. She walked out and made her way to the bus stop. As the Albuquerque bus stopped, she payed, and sat down. Then her phone started vibrating again, and I Bet My Life started blaring. "Alex i'm on my way." Mindy said as she picked up.

"Okay. Look all the way to the back." Alex answered. Mindy looked, and there was Alex, smiling with the phone still to her ear. They started laughing, and Mindy waited until the bus stopped before marching over.

"Well. That was weird." Mindy smiled, as she sat down. Alex nodded. They got to the mall, and once they opened the door, Mindy got a power hug from Christi. Sam walked behind them smiling. As soon as Mindy got free, they walked to the Cinemark in the mall.

"Concession time!" Sam jumped, and ran to get popcorn, candy, soda and tons of other junk food. Alex rolled her eyes.

With Sam done getting her concessions, along with everyone elses, they went to the theater. As they all got their concessions from Sam, the lights dimmed, and the previews started.

The four friends walked out, chatting and laughing. But as Mindy walked distractedly, she ran straight into a boy holding a cherry Icee.

Mindy gasped as the cold, red, slush fell down her shirt, and stained it. "That was my favorite shirt..." she said. "Oh i'm so sorry. It's my fault." the boy said. She looked up, and straight into mezmerizing greenish-gray eyes. "No it's my fault. I wasn't looking where I was going. Sorry." Mindy said.

"I'm Damion. Damion Gonzales. Nice to meet you. I think..." He said as he motioned to her now red shirt. She smiled. "Mindy Valenzuela."

"Well, I think we should go get you cleaned up." Christi said, interrupting the two. Mindy wrinkled her nose at the shirt. She nodded. Then they walked to the bathroom.

Damion stared after them. "Well, it seems to me that someone likes someone else." Damion's friend Jake teased. "Shut up man." Damion said as he punched Jake in the arm. He bent down to pick up the Icee cup, but then saw a pair of black flats before him. He internally groaned.

"Hi Damion." Claire Stevenson said in a sickly sweet voice. "Hi Claire..." he said forcing a smile.

"What movie are you watching?" she said twirling her brown hair, her brown eyes glistening. Compared to the emerald green eyes and red hair that Mindy had, Claire looked dull. "Fast and Furious 7." Jake answered.

Her smile wavered. "So am I! I just need to buy my ticket."

Damion raised an eyebrow. Sure Claire he thought. But as they walked in to the theater, Damion couldn't stop thinking about the green eyes and red hair he saw earlier.

Little did he know that Mindy was thinking about the black hair and olive eyes she saw eariler.
