Walking On Air

Homecoming

I swear, Carter wants me to hate him. It really pisses me off. He really pisses me off. We're all sitting in the bleachers of the football field, I was kinda cold because I had forgotten my jacket in my house and my long sleeve was pretty thin. I shivered slightly, and I crossed my arms across my chest. I sat down next to Brandon and pulled out my phone lifting it up, as I opened the app I had always used to take pictures.
"Brandon." I said, smiling. Brandon looked up and smiled also. After taking two pictures, Sterling took my phone and lifted it up for what he claimed was a "squad" photo. I smiled and we took a couple more photos. 
I was about to sit down when someone bumped into me, causing me stumble. Right as I was about to fall, someone grabbed my hand and I looked up. I gained my balance and forcefully removed my hand from Carter's. Of course I was grateful for him saving me from  a couple broken bones, but it had to be him that saved me...
I mumbled a thanks and just sat down. I looked a couple rows over to see this kid Thomas. He was in my French class and we barely talked but he seemed like a really friendly person. I waved him over the moment we had eye contact and he strolled over with a small smile on his face.

"Sup"  I said faking a cool accent and laughing after. Thomas laughed as well.

"Oh you know. Just making sure the world is safe."He joked. I scoffed playfully and rolled my eyes.

"From the Homecoming game?" I questioned. Thomas nodded while shifting on his feet.
"Hey," he started,"a mans got to do what a mans got to do."
"Unless that man is you." I countered with a smile.
"Psh." He said waving me off. He looked over and then back at me," Damn. Hey my friend is here I'll see you later?"
"Definitely." I beamed," Au revior"
Thomas laughed again and walked away.

Soon the game had started and I was just a huge ball of excitement and crazy for the first half.
Our team (The Owls) was in the lead by 6 points. The score was 6-0.

I cheered and cheered until I felt light headed.
When the game ended, the boys and I wandered the area. My mom would be picking Brandon, Sterling and I up at 10. It's 8:57 right now. I sighed and looked at the three boys in front of me, talking casually about whatever. I smiled slightly, the plan was working.

"How about we go get some ice cream?" I offered, using my thumb to point towards Main Street. The high school was just a few minutes away from a Dairy Queen.
"Sounds like a plan lets go."Sterling beamed, already walking in the direction of Main Street.

I rolled my eyes and followed after quickly, Brandon and Carter following after.

I fell behind a little bit, just texting Athena ever few seconds. We were talking about what Halloween costumes we were going to wear. My phone vibrated, signaling I had gotten a text.
Thanks for agreeing to this, things are turning out pretty well.
-Carter(Asshole)
I hurried my pace and bumped into Carter from behind, he stumbled forward and swiftly turned.
"The hell was that for?"He asked, still facing me, but walking backwards.
"You're welcome." I vaguely motioned to my phone.
He nodded and turned back around, talking to Brandon.
What can I say? I'm good at what I do.
I'm just hoping these three won't cause anymore problems for me.

We arrived at Dairy Queen and waited patiently in line. I settled on a small Oreo blizzard while the other three were still deciding.

When it came to our turn, the boys were still deciding and I rolled my eyes, pushing past them.
"Hi."I smiled at the lady,"I would like a small Oreo blizzard please."

"Okay that will be $4.79" she replied, a small shy smile forming on her lips.
I handed her a five dollar bill and told her too keep the change. She handed me the receipt and I thanked her while stepping aside, letting the boys order. I chose a spot for us to all sit and sat down.

It wasn't long before we all were sitting at the booth, calmly eating our blizzards.
I was minding my own business, before I heard a new voice interrupt my thoughts.
"Can I get your number?" A guy who just failed at flirting asked me.
I rolled my eyes and shook my head,"sorry I have a boyfriend."
I leaned over and kissed Brandon on the cheek and looking at the guy and smirking.
Brandon looked up at the guy, playing along with my act.
"You want to rephrase your statement?" He fake threatened.
The guy took a deep breath, thinking hard about what he was going to say.
"You have a very beautiful girlfriend." The guy quickly muttered out, walking away.

I giggled and high-fived Brandon and the other two boys once the creep was out of sight.
My phone buzzed and I looked at it.
"Guys my mom is here."I declared, sliding out of the booth and standing up.
Brandon, Sterling, Carter and I walked out of the Dairy Queen, discarding our empty cups on the way out.
I hugged Carter because I felt happy that this idea worked. We all exchanged goodbyes to Carter and jumped into my mothers car.
"Hi boys."My mom smiled, backing out of the parking lot.
"Hello."
"Hi, Mrs. Axelson."
