One of the Guys

ThReE

I woke up and got ready for school. I put on my Aeropostale crew neck, ripped jeans, vans, and black beanie.
I went downstairs.
"Morning familia." I grabbed an apple and made a Nutella sandwich for both Cameron and I.

"Jackie!" Mom called.

"I'm coming, I'm coming." she said as she walked downstairs.

"You're taking Rosie to school." mom demanded.

"Can't she walk!?"
I looked at her with a hateful glare.
"Um, no! School is 20 minutes away, walking!"

"You need the excersice." Jackie shrugged.

"And you need a butt, so start doing the squats! Let's go!" I said grabbing my backpack and headed out the door.
I usually take my bike, skateboard, or mom takes me to school but my skateboard broke, my bike has a flat tire, and my mom is going to work early.

I ran to Cameron's house and climbed to he bedroom window. I knocked on it.
I did our secret knocking code.
He opened the window.
"Ready?" I asked.

"Yupp, whose taking us?" He asked.

"Jackie the fattie." I rolled my eyes.

"I call shot gun!" He grabbed his bag and ran downstairs.
I closed his window and climbed down the roof.
"Why do you want shot gun?" I asked Cameron as he came out of his house
"You're sister is hot."

I gave him a disgusted look.
"Eww, Cameron! She's my sister! Blah!"

"Things change!" He hoped in the car
I rolled my eyes.
I got in the back and Jackie looked at Cameron.
"I thought I was just taking you?" Jackie said to me.

"You know Cam and I are BFFLNMW! We go to school together, always!"
I said as Jackie drove.

"What's that? Bbbblahblah?" She questioned.

"Bestfriendsforeverlifenomatterwhat." Cameron said really fast.

"Whatever." she scoffed and dropped us off.
"Bye, dweebs"

"Bye skunk." I said as I jumped out of the car.

"So why do you like her! You never did!" I said.

"I don't like you're sister, I just think she's hot. Anyways, you're sister changed from appearances, she went from braces and pimples to shazam!"

"Eww, let's end this convo now." I said as I opened my locker.
I have this weird feeling inside me when Cam keeps saying that Jackie is hot. I don't like it.
"Gosh I'm hungry!" Cameron whined.

"I made you a Nutella sandwich, I know you hardly eat in the morning and your always hungry." I handed him the sandwich with a Caprisun.

"What will I do with out you." Cameron smiled.

"Ayye!" The boys came from behind us.

"Ayee." I fist pumped all of them.

"Skate night tonight or nah?" Asked Matt.

"I can't." I said. "it's a school night and I have tons of homework and that stupid project from Mr. Wilson."

"It's cus it's free hot dog Monday! Free hotdogs with bacon wrapped around it!" Matt said.

"Just wrap yours around with bacon." said Skate.
We laughed.
Matt punched him on the arm.
We went to class. We had art and I actually love art.
Only half my friends have this class but Cameron has almost all classes with me except for foreign language and he has football when I just have a free period.

"Ok class, we have a project! Yay!" Said Ms. Tomas. "this is a partner project and I will be picking your partner this time"

I looked at Cameron from across the room and we both made sad faces and acted like we will never see each other again.

"Rosie? Are you ok?" Ms. Tomas asked.

"Huh, uh, I'm good." I blushed a little.
She called out the names of the partners.
"Ariana and Cameron." she called out.
I looked at Ariana and she was happy as well with Cameron. Cameron has a huge crush on her. Once again I have that weird feeling.

"Rosie and Marco."
I looked at Marco and smiled. My goodness he is hot.
"Sit down with your. Partner and discuss the project. The project is, both of you and your partner need to build a mini house, the way you would imagine your house or some exotic house, anything. Use your imagination." Ms. Tomas said.

"Sup." Marco said as he sat next to me.

"Hey." I sighed

"Not happy?"

"Why do you ask?"

"You're not partners up with Cameron."

"Maybe, but we should try working with other people, right?"

"Right." Marco agreed.
We talked about the project. the bell rang. Cam and Ariana walked off together out of the classroom.

"He's love strucked." said Nash.

"Why?" I asked.

"He just left with out waiting for us." Nash said.

"So, what if she some kind of mythical witch who blew pink dust on his face and made him follow her and find her interesting?"

"Yeah and the magic unicorn will pick them up to take them to Lala land." said Nash.

"Shut up." I playfully hit his arm.
...
School was over. I was waiting for Cameron at our usual spot.
He was giggling with Ariana and gave her a hug as they went their separate ways.

"I see you and Ariana are getting close" I said.

"She's cool. But you know I've had a crush on her since freshman year." Cameron said as we took the city bus.

"Yeah, lucky you." I said to him.

"Whose your partner?" He asked.

"Marco Stevens ." I said.

"He's cool! He's the homeboy."
My phone interrupted him.
"Hello?" I answered.
it was my mom.
"Ok, bye. My mom wants me to go to Walmart and buy juice, milk, and bananas."

"Let's go" we both smirked.
We got off from the bus and walked to Walmart, our childhood Walmart.
We both took a deep sniff of the store.
"Home sweet home." Cameron smiled.
We both walked to get the items my mom wants. After we just wandered off.
Billy, oh Billy. He was walking around the store until he spot us.

"Well, well. Isn't it Shaggy and Scooby." Billy crossed his arms.

"Why call us that, Billy?" I askd.

"Billy jeans not my love, she's just a girl and she says I am th-" Cameron sang.

"Enough." Billy interrupted Cameron's singing. "Because you two cause trouble, even now! And y'all are 17!"

"We love you too Billy, so because we love each other so much, what about that discount? Huh, huh!?" I elbowed him.

"No discount. Shop and leave, that should be every store's modo. Especially when you two are around.
I've warned Target about you two!" Billy said.

"Aha, really! You love us so much that you brag about us to other stores, you're sweet." Cameron acted flirty and winked.

Billy gave us that "really" face.
"Ready to purchase?" Asked Billy.

"Not until we get that discount." I smirked. "Customer appreciation discount. Number one shoppers of Walmart discount."

Billy took out his walkie talkie. He was calling security. We quickly purchased and the security escorted us out.
"See you soon, Bill! We love you!" We yelled out.
We started to laugh.
That was fun.
