Chapter 8: The News

" Sure, what's up?" I ask Carl, he sighs and starts playing with his fingers." I-I um uh... You know what? Never mind, it's not important." He stutters. He looks like he really wants to tell me something, but he's to nervous." How about we play a game?" I ask. He nods," Sure, what game?" He asks, he can be such a little kid sometimes, I love it." Finish the sentence, but we play it my way." I tell him," What's your way?" Carl asks." Every time you guess the sentence wrong you have to tell me a word from what you were going to tell me." I tell him like the little devil I am." O-okay..." Carl stutters, again. I grab my notebook and a pen from my bag. I wright down a sentence, 'Santa Clause is coming to town.' from my favorite Christmas song." Santa Clause is..." I start." Umm... is fake...?" He asks, I shake my head and show him the sentence. He groans and tells me the first word." I..." is all Carl says. I wright that down, and then wright down the next sentence.' Judith is the cutest baby ever.' " Judith is the..." I start," cutest baby ever." He finishes. I pout and nod. I wright another sentence,' My real name is Trista.' I wright, nobody knew my real name, he'll never guess it." My real name is..." I start, he thinks for a moment." Tia...?" He pretty much asks, I shake my head before showing it to him." Like..." Carl continues his sentence with a heavy sigh. I grin an evil grin before writing it down along with my next sentence.' A love song is just an empty promise.' I looked up and started." A love song is..." he thought," just stupid..." he finished uncertain. I shake my head before I show him the sentence." You." He finishes. I wright it down with the other two words and begin reading it.' I like you', wait, he likes me? I mean, he is so sweet, kind, caring, strong, independent, he can be a little shy about something's, and he still sometimes has 'We're still on the outside' exterior. He's absolutely perfect, if you ask me." S-so... y-you know m-my my se-secret now." He stutters, yet again. I'll go for it, I do like him. I lean foreword and kiss him. Carl pulls away and looks into my eyes," Will you be my girlfriend, Tia?" He asks, I smile, lean foreword, and kiss him again. I pull away quickly before answering," How's that for a yes?" I ask, he just leans foreword, and kisses me. He pulls away and answers." Best yes there is." He tells me, I smile and wrap my arms around him.

I start pounding on Enid's door until she answers." What do yo- oh, hey, Tia!" Enid answers. I laugh before I start squealing." Carl asked me out!" I squeal," And you said...?" She asks," Yes!" I yell, she looks so mad now. Oh, wait, she liked Carl... she was going to dump Ron to ask him out... oh crap...
