Before We Collide...

#8 Goldilocks and the three GOALS!

"And then we went to the movies and..."

I listened to Rebecca rambling on about her "Fantastic" date she had with Jason as we walked towards the front gate of hell...

Some kids were making out against the wall as their friend stood there looking like a third wheel...

Ugh, for crying out loud! Get a room would you!

I looked to my left only to see a freshman looking at me like I lost my mind...

I threw him the "What are you staring at, huh?!" look and he quickly scrambled off.

"What? Do you have a problem? Haven't you seen a girl debating with herself over her stupid life, huh?!" I yelled as he quickly shook his head and looked over his shoulder only to have me staring him down.

Hehe...

"Woah, Grumpy Guss. What's got your panties in a bunch?" Rebecca questions as she waved to her friends on the soccer team.

I know right! She's beautiful and she plays sports, way to boost my
self-esteem!

I sighed. "Sorry,,, I'm not usually this grumpy... it's just, I totally woke up on the right side of the bed, just to have my happy mood trampled on by this awesome thing called Mondays! And my mom wasn't there to feed me pancakes..."

She bit her lip to keep herself from becoming a dying seal. "What?" I asked as she finally burst out laughing and clapping her hands without any noise coming from her mouth.

See....dying seal!

"Y- yo- you just l-look s-s-so funny all grumpy!" I sighed and looked away before she could see the small smile playing on my lips.

What? She's my best friend, her smile's contagious, okay!

"Yay! I made you smile!" I shook my head playfully. "Shut up you goofball." She snickered and went on talking about Jason and their date.

I zoned out and just nodded when I saw her looking at me, to make it seem like I'm listening.

It's been a week since my little... incident, if that's what you would call it, with Damian and I haven't seen him around at school or at home.

His curtains are always shut and his motorbike never at his house. I don't know what happened, the one moment he was kissing me and the next it's like he was there but he also wasn't...

I mean, did I do something wrong that scared him off? Probably, since I always do...

I walked towards my locker to fetch my books and heard Caleb and Jason talking across the hall. They waved over at me and I smiled as I waved back.

Becca gave Jason a hug and Caleb winked at me as he made gagging faces. I laughed and he sent me one of his signature winks.

Where is he? A frown overtook my face...

Suddenly the door burst open revealing the one person I've missed so much!

Shanette Oliver, my other bestie!

You know those over dramatic moments in the movies where the kid bursts through the schooldoor and there's smoke behind her and everybody stops what they're doing to stare at her beauty while a theme song plays in the background?

That's exactly what happened!

She stood there with her blonde locks waving behind her back and her signature hockey stick in her hand, while her shinpads rest on her legs and her uniform fits her slim body perfectly.

"Hockey Lockey's back!"She yelled and Rebecca and I turned so fast, I swear I heard a snap somewhere.

Huh, maybe gotta check that out later...
