I grab my stuff and head to my car. I can't wait for him to text me.

One month! Fisher waited one freakin' month to text me! And its 11:36 at night! What the hell took him so long!
Fisher- Heyy babe, I've been working on my swing;)
I don't know who he thinks he is, thinking that he can wait a whole month before texting me and expect me to message him back right away, because I'm not going to. I talked to Alex about him and she said he is a player. So no, I'm not going to be tricked into his game. I am not that desperate.
Me- Hey, and that doesn't mean it has gotten any better;)
Shit. Why did I text him. Well I'm not going to text him again and thats that.
Fisher- I'll be at the cage next Saturday if you wanna see for yourself;)
Me- We'll see;)
Damn it Sarah! Stop texting him!
Fisher- See you then;)
Nope I'm not going to do it. I put my phone on my night stand and get back to my useless algebra homework. I won't even use this shit! It is not like I'm going to be on a softball field and need the algebraic expression to know how to stretch my calf muscle. I shake my head and close my book and set it on the ground. I get under my blankets and cuddle my body pillow. A bright light flashes in front of my face. I squint as my eyes and try to see what the light is. Of courses its my phone. I can hardly see but it says "New message from Tyler" Why now guys?! You had all day to text me but midnight seems to be the best time.
Tyler- Hey, I know you're probably asleep but its my birthday this Saturday and I was hoping you would come to my party? You can bring a friend if you want to...
I can't go, that would crush Alex. Well, maybe she could be my plus one? I'll talk to her this week. I check the time again. 12:06. Shit its Monday already. I turn off my phone so no ones else can reach me and go to bed.

"Sarah Lee Ann Waters! It's eight o'clock! You have five minutes to get ready and get your ass to school or you'll be late!" I slowly open my eyes and reach for my phone. It won't turn on. Shit! I turned it off last night! I rush to my closet and grab a pair of jeans and a gray hoodie, no shirt today, then to my dresser and grab underwear and a bra. I race to my bathroom and change as fast as I can. I put my hair in a messy ponny tail and brush my teeth. I go to my room and grab my phone and my vans. I am running so fast I almost face-plant down the stairs. I grab my keys off the counter and race to my Jeep.

I didn't roll down the windows. I didn't turn on my music. I drove to school quickly but quietly. My mind was taken over by thoughts of the guys in my life. Should I go to Tyler's party with Alex or the the cage to see Fisher. This is crazy. Not one but two guys like me! Although one is off limits, because of Alex, it has kind of made me want him more. Just as that thought crosses my mind I get to my spot and park.

I start up the steps when I see Alex running at me. I fight the ugre to run away from her knowing good and well its going to hurt when we collide. I shut my eyes and put up my hands bracing for her attack. "Sarrrrrahhhhh!!!" She hits me and wraps her arms around me picking me up and spinning me in a circle. I feel like I'm going to be sick "Oh my god! Sarah!!" I start to feel light headed. "Alex-I-can't-breath" Comes out just small of a whisper. My feet barely touch the floor and I open my eyes. Alex is holding my bicepts with big bug eyes and mouth open breathing heavily. "Im sorry, but Sarah, Guess what?!" She squeezes my arms making it difficult to think. "Ummm, you've been working out?" I say trying not to laugh. "No! Well yes, but no! My team! Coach Rogger put us in a tournment! Tonight be play against Spring Water high, Thursday we play West Bridge Private high school and if we bet both teams we'll go to the championship!" "That's awesome Alex! I know y'all are going to win, after all y'all have an amazing captain." I wink at her as I say the last word. She let's go of my arms, that will probably have brushes tomorrow and does a fake hair flip because she has a pony tail on and says "I know right! But you have to promise me something!" She leans in closer. "What would that be?" She had the biggest grin on her face which kind of scared me. "If we make it to the championship, you have to come! Pleasee!" Alex brings up her hands as if he was going to pray, closes her eyes and marches in place quickly. "Please-please-please-please-please" As funny as she looks, I grab her shoulders to stop her. "Okay, okay! Yes Alex, I would love to come to your championship game!" She opens her eyes and smiles from ear to ear. "Sweet! I'll let you know!" She hugs me and races off. "Alex! Wait!" I yell. "I have something to ask you" I say to myself. I hope I can catch her later.
