A Baby For Kydd

•••

The next day at school, she couldn't wait until PE.
She hated having to suffer through the other classes.
She made idle chat with the group during lunch.
Taylor seemed a bit annoyed with Kydd today.
She could hardly sit still in art. She constantly glanced at the clock on the wall.
Finally the bell rang.
She causally stood up and walked to PE with Rumour.
" Excited for PE? "
Rumour's voice sounded riddled with sarcasm.
" No, just waiting for the day to end. Ready for the weekend."
She was a bad liar. Kydd couldn't lie to save her life.
" Uh-huh.. "
Rumour gave a playful bump. Kydd smiled.
" Go get him kid."

As she changed clothes she thought about what she would say to him. Of course that's only if he talked to her first.
She walked into the gymnasium. And causally looked around. She didn't seem him, could he still be in the boys locker room?

He came out, and walked over to the guys side.
After a quick work out the gym teachers threw some basketballs out. A couple of girls sat down on the bleachers.
Kydd grabbed a basketball and started shooting some hoops.
Taylor glared at her from the bleachers as she sat there talking to Maggie.

Rumour joined Kydd and the two played a friendly game of one on one.
She looked over at Cobain.
He was talking to a girl who was popping bubbles with her gum. He was flirting with her.
Kydd felt so confused. Had she read the whole thing all wrong?
Just before she looked away. She saw him kiss the girl.
She blushed and looked away. Taylor could be heard laughing from the bleachers.

As they walked the halls Kydd remained silent.
" Hey, are you okay? "
Rumour's voice startled Her a bit.
" Yes, Im fine.. "
" Do you have any plans for the weekend? "
Kydd shook her head no.
" Well if you want I'll give you my number and if you're cool with it we can go to the mall Saturday? "
After exchanging numbers.
Kydd excused herself to the restroom.
She sat in the stall, partly mad and a bit confused.
Was he playing a game?
Was he doing it to make her a bit jealous? Or was yesterday just a way of him being nice??
She sat there for a bit before getting out.
She shook herself making sure she didn't show how much it affected her.

As she walked back to homeroom she took her seat next to Rumour.
Her mind was still fixated on Cobain.

Even the drive home he was still on her mind by the time she got home. She had mentaly cursed him out four times.
Why was she worrying so much about this jerk?
She tossed her backpack on the floor. And flopped down on her bed.
Ugh! Shake it off girl. She thought to herself. She took out her phone and texted her friends. First Mia, Dylan and lastly she texted Rumour.
She turned her laptop and surfed the web for a bit.
Her phone buzzed. She read text messages from Mia. Begging no demanding that she come back to civilization. Otherwise known as home. She laughed and wrote back : Miss you too.
She texted Her friends well into the night. Before calling it a night she posted a quick picture on instagram.
As she layed in bed and drifted off to bed, she cursed him out one more time..
