Secret Promises

Chapter one:

6:00am

Katelyn: -yawns- OH MY GOSH I'M GOING TO BE LATE FOR WORK!!! AHHHHH

*Katelyn fights to get out of bed, quickly getting  dressed. She puts on light blue jeans and her black working polo, along with white and black checkered slide on vans. Passing her window while brushing through her hair she notices a figure in one of the trees just 12 feet away in the distance *

*Slowly opening the window still glaring at the tree to make out the blobby dark figure, she pauses*

Katelyn: TRAVIS!?!...WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING WITH THOSE BINOCULARS!?

*Travis falls out of the tree with a light scream, shaken by how his cover was just blow*

*He stands up quickly to greet Katelyn at the wall just below her second story window*

Travis: Heeey Katelyn, (he says, as he places his hand on the back of his neck nervously) heh...you're looking good today.

*Katelyn launches a shoe at his face, causing him to fall backwards onto the grassy floor outside, a pink stain heats across her face*

Katelyn: TRAVIS! WHY ARE YOU LOOKING THR-...(She sighs, placing her hand on her face.) Never mind. I really don't have time to deal with you right now, I'm going to be late for work!

*Travis sits up off the ground, shaken from having a shoe thrown at his face. Katlyn walks away from the window and out of her room*

*She meets Travis at the front door unexpectedly for some reason, she quickly rolls her eyes in annoyance*

Katelyn- Travis why are you still here!? Do you want to get hit again?!

Travis: C-Can I walk with you?
(he says quietly, with a light smile on his face)

*Katelyn sighs*

Katelyn: No.

*She pushes past him, leaving his on the front porch of her house, his gaze follows her as she walks by*

*Travis screams across the yard*

Travis: PLEASE KATELYN!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

*Katelyn turns to see him on his knees still on her front porch. The thought of his screams waking up the neighborhood was too must of an embarrassment for her to handle*

Katelyn: Fine!...But only if you stop screaming!!!

*Travis stops screaming and his frozenly opened mouth becomes a closed devilish smirk. He walks up to meet her on the sidewalk in front of the house*

Travis: Anything for you Babe, hehehe

*Katelyn slaps him across the face again leaving a second red mark, aside from the red mark the shoe left from being plunged at his face*

Katelyn:Never call me that! And I changed my mind. I can walk to work on my own!...AND IF YOU START SCREAMING AGAIN, I WILL RIP THE VOICE BOX OUT OF YOUR THROAT!

*Travis sighs and places his hand on his cheeks, now burning twice as much as before*

Travis: Ow! (He roughly whispers to himself) Great job Travis, you screwed your chances up again, BUT DAYUM SHE IS HOT WHEN SHE'S BEING FEISTY!  

*He pulls out and drops Dante's book (How To Get The Ladies) on the concrete and watches as Katelyn walks away from him in the distance. Hopelessly, he sits there as the suns finishes its rising course, wondering if he will ever get the girl of his dreams*

*Later that night*

*Katelyn approaches Travis's house, knocking lightly on his front door, but there is no answer. Before she knocks for a second time she shifts quickly looking behind her at the rumbling of bushes...it seemed as though someone was just watching her from behind*

Katelyn: Show yourself or else!

*Katelyn walks over to the now silently still busch, ready to attack. She kicks it, but nothing seems to come out*

Katelyn: (Whispers to herself) Oh...There's nothing here...

Travis: -Hello???

*Katelyn turns around to see Travis at his now opened front door*

Katelyn: Travis??? What took so long for you to open the door???

*Travis starts to sweat, his clothes are all dirty as if he had been rolling in mud, and he has a small pair of binoculars wrapped around his neck, a busch leaf falls off of his hoodie and onto the floor in front of Katelyn*

Travis: UH...I-I was in the....THE SHOWER...YEAH...That's were I was! The whole time!

*Katelyn walks away from the bushes and back up to his front door, giving him a suspicion look. She plucks a leaf off of his dry head of hair.*

Katelyn: Mhm. Okay...

Travis: Heh Heh...Yeah, soooooooo what brings a fine looking lady like you to my front door? Hm?

*Katelyn rolls her eyes and crosses her arms, already feeling agitated at his freshly spoken lies*

Katelyn: I'm only here because I wanted to apologize for earlier; I shouldn't of thrown a shoe at your face or slapped you like that, even though I'm feeling the urge to slap you again right now for whatever just occurred.

*Katlyn gives him a sour face*

*Travis looks down at the ground with a saddened and nervous look gripping his right arm with his left hand*

Travis: W-Well it wasn't your fault, I shouldn't of been...well, you know...

Katelyn: Wow... I'm shocked that you are even saying this to me right now, I'm impressed. (She uncrosses her arms and starts to laugh)

Travis: ...does this mean you'll  finally let me take you out on a date??? (He states excitingly)

Katelyn: NO!...I mean...No, but if you keep acting so gentleman like, then it could be a possibility...In the far far far far far...far future.

*She winks at Travis and starts to walk away*

Travis: Heh, Okay Katelyn, I'll remember that

*he awkwardly winks back, but Katelyn was already facing the other way*

Travis: (whispers to himself) hmmm, maybe if I bring her flowers tomorrow she might give me a chance, I think that's gentlemen like enough...Right?

*He walks back inside deep in thought, now entering his room.He lays on his bed thinking about what his future could be like with Katelyn as his girlfriend, and with that thought, he falls happily asleep*
