Cheese 'n' Crackers

Chapter 6

I just wanted to say sorry for updating late lately. School is really annoying and tiring. I wanted to say congrats to one of my close friends ;)

lol they know why.

Chapter 6:

I actually dislocated Colton’s shoulder. I barely even touched him.

Lila went to call the nurse as soon as we saw Colton’s shoulder popping out, while I just stood there speechless.

Once the nurse came, I couldn’t look. It had nothing to do with Colton’s shirt being ripped off and having to see his amazing body, but it had to do with his shoulder looking disgusting. The nurse had to put an arm sling to keep the shoulder in place and she had to call his parents too.

Apparently Colton had his shoulder seriously hurt recently, and I punching it did not help the healing process.

I felt super guilty. After the nurse left, I kept apologizing to Colton.

“It’s okay, you didn’t know,” Colton assured me.

“I know, but I shouldn’t have punched you,” my cheeks were all flustered as I spoke, partly because I felt totally embarrassed for going crazy and partly for him still being shirtless.

“Calm down Rose. He’ll be fine,” Lila commented from the bench. She had sat down on the bench after the nurse left and was now enjoying the Colton view.

“Hello?” Colton spoke into his phone. He started walking away from us, as the person on the other end talked. I don’t know who he called, but he looked frustrated as he herd what the other person had to say.

I walked over to Lila and sat down next to her. My guilt was eating me alive.

I just hurt Colton Levine. He’s a model! I hurt a model.

“If I wasn’t taken, I would so go for that,” Lila said as she nodded to Colton.

“How can you think of that when he’s hurt?” I asked.

“Um…he’s shirtless? How can you not think of that?” Lila questioned me.

I looked over at Colton and couldn’t help but agree with Lila. Colton is without a doubt a fine piece of man, but he also had this sort of aura that made me think twice about falling for him. I’ve had this feeling about him all day and couldn’t shake it off. At first I was scared, but now I was just curious.

How had Colton hurt his shoulder? Why did he go from full-time to part-time model? Why is he even a model?

Before I could answer Lila, Colton suddenly pulled his phone away from his face and came towards us. “I need to go already. Where’s the front of the school?” Colton asked sounding frustrated.

“I’ll take you there. I need to leave too,” Lila responded. She stood up and they both started leaving. “Bye Rose,” Lila said as they walked away.

“Bye,” I mumbled more to myself. Too many questions were going through my head about Colton. I needed to get a grip on myself.

I grabbed my things and headed over to one-act play practice. We stayed practically every day and I was already late due to the little “incident”.

***

“Rose!” Feril screamed from the stage. “Where were you girl? You’re late.”

I slowly walked into the theatre and let the door slam behind me. Everyone was looking at me and waiting for an answer.

I looked down at my feet and mumbled, “I dislocated Colton’s shoulder.”

“What?” Feril asked confused. “I didn’t hear you,” she said as she moved to the edge of the stage.
