End of an Era

Chapter 3

Addie's POV

 My morning was exactly like every other morning. Katie throwing a rock at my window, then asking if her outfit was okay, then throwing another rock through my window (which this morning, that rock hit my head instead), asking if her new outfit was okay, then meeting downstairs to go to school. When we got to school, we were both greeted by our boyfriends. 

 Katie's POV

Sean put his arm around me as we walked out the door, I loved that Sean and Ben were friends, it worked out perfectly when we double dated cause there was never that one person who feels left out. I never could figure how they were friends though, Sean was a complete jock; basketball, baseball, football player, and Ben was a nerd, don't get me wrong, Ben's awesome but there's no just other word to describe him than nerd. They were polar opposites, yet somehow they manage to be friends. Except when they were fighting about whether Apple or Android was better. Sean and I were both Android fans while Ben and Addie were both Apple fans, the only flaw in an otherwise perfect friendship between me and Addie. We had a lot of couple vs. couple fights about that, I don't know why we care so much. Sean is just perfect except...HE'S A COKE FAN! I know, I know, it's terrible, but I am trying to convert him and make him see how terrible coke is and that pepsi rules the world. Addie and Ben are both pepsi fans too so I guess Sean is the odd man out in that way.

We care alot about those stupid little things that other people don't get, but it works because we're all like, omg Jessie's hair looks really pretty right now, I think she dyed it, wait what was I talking about? Ummm you know what I'm never gonna remember, I'm giving up.

"Hey guess what, I got my acceptance letter to Harvard."

"Are you serious? That's great!"

Sean was fairly smart, the real reason he was accepted into Harvard was because he was a star football, baseball, and basketball player. He got a sports scholarship. I hadn't gotten any acceptance letters yet, of course Harvard always sent theirs out first but now I was scared, what if I didn't get into any of the schools I applied to.

Ben and Addie looked impressed, "Harvard, really? Do you think you'll go there?" Ben asked him.

"Oh definitely not, I still have my heart set on University of Alaska. But I'm feeling pretty good now because if I can get into Harvard then I can get into Alaska, I would never go to Harvard."

"Then why did you apply?"

"Well my dad really wants me to be a lawyer or something like that but that sounds super boring."

Wait, I probably will get into schools, I have better grades than Sean and I'm on the soccer, track, softball(I tried but they would not let a girl onto the baseball team, baseball is way better than softball), and dance team(don't ask, I'm really not sure why I'm on the dance team).

Dangit I forgot what I was talking about again, I really should write this stuff down before I go off topic.

Addie's POV

Wow, Harvard. Pretty impressive, even if Sean's not going there. I have my heart set on NYADA. New York Academy of the Dramatic Arts. My dream. Of course, if I don't get into NYADA, then there's Juilliard. Of course, if I can't get into Juilliard, then there's the New York University. But that would be if all else fails. Which it won't. I've always loved acting and performing. 

"Addie, ADDIE!" Katie practically yelled in my ear, bringing me back into reality and out of my thoughts. 

"What?" I said. 

"You zoned out. It was kinda creepy because we kept on flicking you and pushing you and you didn't do anything" Katie said. I stared at her. 

"Okay so it was just me who did the flicking and pushing" She confessed.

"But you know you still love me" She said. 

"Sad but true" I said, smiling as the four of us, me, Ben, Katie, and Sean, started to walk down the hall to get to our classes. After first period, I met up with Katie in the halls and we both walked to history, since it was our second period. Our history teacher, Mrs. Goode, normally lets us sit wherever we want, but if we talk to much then she separates us. That's what happens to me andd Katie just about everyday. Today, we were talking and playing tic-tac-toe on our notes, then Mrs. Goode put us on opposite ends of the room. Like that made a difference. After we got separated, we began to throw notes at each other. Yes, throw. We both got a rubber band and did that thing where you fold the paper and put it on the rubber band and then let go of the rubber band and it goes flying. I know, a bit confusing, but that's basically one of the main words that describe me and Katie. Once second period ended, we went our separate ways. At lunch, Ben, Sean, Katie, and I sat down at our regular table. After lunch, It was basically the same as our morning. Me and Katie talking in our class, Me and Ben talking in our class, and the few times I actually paid attention in class. With how much talking me and Katie do in class, it's hard to believe we are both straight A students. You'd think we'd F's or D's. After school was over, I met up with Ben and Katie. 

"Hey, I just got an idea" I said, walking up to them. 

"What?" Katie asked. 

"We should go see that new movie tonight!" I said. 

"Oh, that one with that one guy in it?" She asked. 

"Yeah, and it also has that one girl in it!" I said. 

"OMG! I know that movie! We absolutely have to go see it!"

"I know! So can you? Me, you, Sean, and Ben can go"

"Hmm, tonight?"

"Yeah"

"Can't, I'm grounded"

"Since when has that ever stopped you? And what for?"

"You're right let's go to a late showing so I won't be saying I'm going to bed at 7:30. And because I got detention for the fifth time this month"

"Wow"

"Yeah, oh, Kendra's here. Bye!" 

"Bye!" I called. Katie picked up her bag and ran toward her foster mom's car. I turned to Ben to find him staring at me. 

"What?" I asked. 

"Exactly what movie are we seeing tonight?" He asked. I laughed and grabbed his hand. 

"Ehh, you'll find out" I said.
