The Enemy

Phone #

Ch. 4

As soon as the bell rang, I ran out of the classroom to go find Leah. Since I was working on a project with Mark, he had given me his number so I can text him where I lived or vise versa. I ran halfway across the school before I found her. "Guess what!" I screamed as soon as I caught up to her.

"Someone is very happy after getting hit in the face by spaghetti," she replied.

"That's in the past. I'm talking about the present right now," I said trying to keep myself from saying the best news ever.

"Sooo, what are you so excited about because I have no clue."

"Mark and I got paired up for a project where we get to do a love scene but that's not even the best part!" I was talking really fast now but I didn't care.

"Then what's the best part because I'm on the edge of my seat right now!" Leah asked excitedly.

"I got Mark Evans phone number!" I squealed.

"That's awesome ,Katie!" Leah squealed too. She knew it was my dream to get his number ever since he came two years ago. I was and am still really scared to talk to him. I mean he is so cute. How do you talk to a guy who looks like him?

After the next two periods finished, I got out my phone and texted Mark.

Me: Who's house should we go to to work on the project? Yours or mine?

Mark <3: Yours is fine.

Me: Ok. Is 6 good for you?

Mark<3: Ya, that's perfect.

Me: See you then.

Mark <3: I'll be there.

I smiled down at my phone. I can't believe Mark is coming over to my house! That's when I started freaking out. "Mark is coming over to my house!" I yelled in my head," There's so much to do. Where is Luke?!" I looked around for him frantically. What I saw disgusted me. It was Jack "the jerk" Bailey.

"What are you looking at?" he spat the words out like icicles.

"Just your ugly face!" I spat back. Even though Jack wasn't ugly I had to come up with something.

He walked over to his car that was right next to Luke's and opened the door. Just before he got in, he turned around and said," By the way I hope you don't scare away Mark with that rat's nest you call hair." He got into his car, closed the door, and drove away.

As soon as Jack was out of the parking lot, my brother walked to the car. Finally. I got in the car and slammed the door shut (I checked my hair to make sure it was okay). I was seething right now. "What's your problem?" Luke asked.

"Nothing," I replied, "Just drive."

"Okay! Ms. Moody," he said before starting the car. I was quiet the whole ride home just burning inside about what a jerk Jack was. By the time we got home, Jack was forgotten and Mark was remembered.

"Hey, Luke, can you not make a mess of the house? I have someone coming over." I said this while I started cleaning up the house.

"Sure. Who's coming over?" Luke asked raising an eyebrow.

"No one special," I replied obviously lying. I had a lot to do in a short amount of time. Mark is coming over!
