The Taxi Driver

Chapter 9

"Are you sure nothing is happening between the two of you?" Rebecca asked her as she got ready for bed. "I'm sure. We're just friends." She smiled sitting on her bed. "Who did your bow? You suck at it." She told her truthfully. She scoffled and glared at her. She bit her lip. "I mean. Your bow looks amazing." She said. She smiled. "I didn't make it. Ross did." She said. She looked at her. "Really? He did your bow?" Becca asked. She nodded and smiled. "Yup. He's a true artist." She smiled. She raised her eye brow. "Really? Tell me about his art."She said getting comfortable.

They sat there talking about him practically. Rebecca fangirled here and there. But who wouldn't? Her best friend was finally starting to see life. Finally getting over the past. Yeah its alot to take in but everyone has to move on after awhile. She smiled looking at her best friend with sparkles in her eyes. She was finally growing and losing the darkness in her eyes. All thanks to him. Maybe there was more to Ross than she thought to him. She laughed. "Your too into this." She said. "Sorry. I'm just so happy that your happy for once." She said. She looked down. "Thanks Becca." She said. She nodded. "Alright lights out! We need energy tomrrow." She said. She nodded and got up to turn off the light. She smiled and tucked herself in. She turned the light off and got back in her bed. They then slowly drifted to sleep.

"Girls....." Rocky scoffled. She giggled. "We clearly need more time in the bathroom. And with there being 2 bathrooms, we each get a bathroom. No one needs 2 hours to get ready. Especially just their hair." Laura said. He scoffled. " Well Ross is coming over and we plan to hang out so I need to look decent." He rolled his eyes. "ROSS!? Like now!?" She asked looking in the mirror. He looked at her weirded out. "Yeah. We've been over this." He said. "Oh my god! My face is hideous! Rocky move!" She said shoving him out of the bathroom and slamming the door in his face. He scratched his chin. She opened the door. "I love you. Thank you!" She said air blowing a kiss and slamming the door once again. Rebecca walked over. "Again?" She asked. He nodded. "I swear she totally likes him." He rolled his eyes, walking away. She shrugged.

"So tell my bro. What are you into? Besides Laura." Rocky smirked. Ross blushed. "Am not." He lied. "Don't worry. I won't tell. Your secret is safe with me. Even though I'm really bad at keeping them." He said cheekily. His eyes widened as he shrugged.He laughed. "I'm just kidding. Tell me." He said getting comfortable. He fanned himself as he tried to calm his heated face. "Wow. I was joking but you weren't. You are into her!" He shouted. He flushed and tried to cover his face. "Oh my god! You totally are!"He shouted. "Rocky...." He whined. Just then Laura walked in. "Your totally into her! That's so sweet." He said. "Into who?" She asked as she joined them on the couch. Ross looked away blushing and Rocky sealed his lips shut.

"What were we talking about?" Rocky asked. She looked between the two. "How someone was into someone?" She raised her eyebrow. "Are you sure we said someone? I'm pretty sure, we said something was into someone." He asked. She looked at him as if he just said the most dumbest thing ever. If you think about it,it was the most accurate saying ever. She rolled her eyes. "Lets go shoot some goals. Lets go play on the ice." Ross suggested. "But you just got here.And we were talking." She said. Rocky coughed. "Crush! Uh! Crush! Ow! My throat!" He said coughing. They looked at him. "What? Ross yes. It will be a change from.....from...." He trailed as Laura glared at him. "I love you." He smiled. "That's what I thought." She said. Ross laughed. "Alrighty. We're gonna go play hockey." He said getting up. Rocky nodded. "Do you mind if we came along?" She asked. They looked at one another. "Uh...." They said together.

She pouted. Ross gave in but didn't say anything. "Awwe. Look at that face." Rocky said. He looked at her face. "But no. We don't want you getting hurt." He said. "Why would I get hurt? I'm not even playing." She said. "Okay. But your dad said to make sure to bring you back 100% healthy." Rocky said. She glared at him. "I'll be fine. Its only for a little bit. Right?" She asked. He nodded. "Yeah. Just wear a heavy coat." He said. Rocky looked at him and glared. "No. She shouldn't be there in the first place." He said. Ross rolled his eyes. "So the park?" He asked. "No. Hockey. Laura we'll bring you a slushie. See ya! Go go! Run!" Rocky said as the guys dashed out the house. "Idiots." She mumbled. "Heard that." She rolled her eyes.

"No bro. Seriously. Just tell her how you feel. Trust me, she feels the same way." Ross told Rocky. "But then I don't kinda want to make things awkward between us. Plus Mr.Marano has rules."He rolled his eyes. "Which are?" He asked as they set up for a little game of 4 on 4. "Well, I'd get fired for dating any coworker. And I don't want to. I'm with Laura as her guard/friend but I work for her dad. And I started having weird feelings lately when I'm with Rebecca." He told him truthfully. "Do your palms get sweaty?" He asked. "Yes." He replied. "Stomach start to tie up in knots?" He asked. "Gasping for air almost every second feeling like you can't breathe?" He asked. He nodded. "Rocky buddy....You like Rebecca. And possibility that you might even love her." He said. His eyes widened. "Huh? I thought you were a couple." Ross smirked.
