JOCELYN
I bit into my chocolate covered apple and chewed on it as I watched Yuri flirt with girls from school. I rolled my eyes and mocked Ashlyn Marco comment about how strong Yuri is. Yuri wasn't strong as she makes it seem and I was only annoyed because they were filling his ego and I'll have to deal with that when his newbie status grows old and no one care.
Or until he finds a girlfriend and all of them will back off.
I was at the end of the table since I was practically pushed away. I didn't care though, I knew this well happen. Yuri may be popular in school, but he'll be my friend again after. It's just now it's the festival and everyone in the town interested in the new Russian kid.
I was leaning on my arm, my cheek rested on the the palm of my hand as I took another bite. I guess I wasn't being very lady like because Mrs. Valentine and Mrs. James, two of the meanness old ladies in town were staring at me from the food booth with disapproving looks for slouching and not acting like a lady.
Since my mama taught me manner, I leaned up and kept my shoulder straight. I finally got the old bats eyes off me and I just wanted to pick the girls up from their pretty haircut heads and toss them away. I wish it was that easy though.
“Hey.”, I heard someone next to me and I turned my head to see Autumn.
I smiled, “Hey.”, setting the candy apple down on its plastic wrap. I smiled excitedly as I moved a little to give her space to sit down next to me, ''Sit.''
She did and leaned over to look at Yuri, "How's your day going?" she asked as she leaned back to look at me.
I chuckled, ''Fine. Yuri always had admirers and he likes attention. Have to share my friend with everyone.'' I said.
''Oh. How'd you to meet?" she asked.
''Rome in a cafe slash pastry shop. Long story, but ended throwing my drink on him. After we just became friends. Enough on Yuri, who are you here with?" I asked, giving her a teasing grin, "Boyfriend?''
She chuckled and shook her head, ''No, family but being stuck chasing your little brother is no fun.''
''Oh.'' I said. ''Well I'm glad your here, not lonely anymore. We can sit here and point out the cutest guys who walk pass.''
''Has Rome changed you.'' she chuckled and I shrugged my right shoulder.
''Rome has allot of cute guys,'' I said.
YURI
I was getting bored with being tossed around like a doll by these girls. If I wanted to be bored while force to try these games, I could do it with Jocelyn. She wouldn't be saying how great I was doing and acting fake when I missed the three stacks bottles. She would be saying how much I suck and push me away, trying herself.
I felt bad for not being to be with her since we got here. One minute we were together and the next the girls from my classes separated us.
''Okay, okay, if I miss this, I am sorry ladies but I must be going. I can not be spending all my money on one night.'' I said and they all pouted, but agreed. I tossed my arm back and threw it at the bottles, but it barley made it since I didn't try.
''Awe.'' they said in disappointment and I slid my body out of the girls grasp.
I gave them a charming smile, ''I will see you all Monday.''
I turned around and quickly got out there before they could stop me. When I felt it was safe, I slowed down and breathed heavily out my mouth, keeping my eyes for Jocelyn.
