Stuck In Time

Chapter 6

November finally rolled around and the chilly air officially kicked in. Since today was a Friday, Grace and I figured we would go out for dinner tonight., even though Friday is usually our pizza night. I was pretty excited, since I haven’t forgot about it once today during school! I passed Mack in the halls several times also, and get this-I remember him! He was pretty stoked as well, I could tell with the grin on his face. He was so cute, the way his couple of freckles moved when his eyes lit up...

 

Anyway, as I walked home from school, someone unexpected showed up. And this time I didn’t time recognize him. “Hey” the stranger greeted. “Hey” I greeted back just the same. He laughed. I didn’t find it very funny. 

“You probably don’t know who I am”

“You’re probably right.”

“I’m Luke. I’m from your English class.”

“Ohh right..I think. I’m-”

“Carson” He chuckled. He didn’t say anything after that. 

I kept my eyes on the sidewalk in front of me and glared. “Do you want the homework or something? Because I never wrote it down-”

“Carson’”

“Yes?!” I asked angrily. This kid was getting on my nerves.

“Brian is bad news.” 

“What?”

“Your friend Ally is dating him right? I saw him behind some trees in the back on the school, making out with some random chick. I mean she was pretty hot but...”

That immediatly made me zone out. Brian was cheating on Ally? How could he? They practically seemed in love! Always holding hands and kissing, and..ugh.

But then again, there was something that was biting at the inside of my stomache, some kind of not so good feeling I had about him. He seemed so...player-ish. Like that day at the mall. He was sort of a jerk to me.

But I still can’t even think to see Ally’s face once she finds out! She won’t react well. Then again, who would? Can I even trust Luke? Shouldn’t I see this for myself? Or better yet, talk to Brian, one on one?

I was suddenly jerked to the side, realizing I didn’t hear the rest of Luke’s story. I smiled sheepishly and turned my head back to the road, only to find I had to turn this corner to get to my house. I quickly waved to Luke, running past him and to my home. I heard my name being called over and over, but all I did was giggle.

 

*authors note

I did NOT forget about her problem! This is part of the story. How do u like Carson remembering things? Like her true personality? I will bring it out more during the next few chapters but heres the first bit!

Sorry this is really short! The next chapter is really important so I thought I would publish this. Every story has one of these!
