Dollhouse -Raura

chapter three

              Ah ah ah. Bu bu bu bu,

        I head to last period hearing mumbling from the students around me, but whatever.
      I walk in and take a seat next to some kid I think his name is Gary. I don't know his name but I do know he is the smartest kid in school.
      Also a total jerk. I've only been here two days but I discovered that because he's the smartest kid in school and he thinks he can bully people.
     And when I say people I mean me. "Hey loser," he leans over to whisper in my ear. I scoot my chair away from him but he just scoots closer.
        "Aw what's wrong? You sad because I'm way smarter than you? Cause if you are sorry, I can't help that you are stupid."
You think you're smarter than me with all your bad poetry.
     "Leave me alone, please." "Mhm. I rather not. Why you don't like to told your dumb? What if I told you you're ugly?"
      Suddenly a voice interrupts,"she's not dumb or ugly  Gary." It was the guy from yesterday. Russ? No. Ross. He was sticking up for me.
        "Leave her alone," Ross fired at Gary. "What are you gonna do about it," Gary fired back.
"Oh I'll show you what I'm gonna do," Ross fired back standing up from his chair showing his fist.
The teacher walked in and gasped,"Mr. Lynch! What on earth are you doing?" "He was gonna hit me because I was talking to his girlfriend Ms. Lane," Gary says smirking.
"No, I wasn't. And she's not my girlfriend." "Yes, you were going to hit me." I then felt all eyes on me. Well this is embarrassing.
"I don't care who was going to hit who! I better not see any of that funny business again, got it boys?"
"Yes, ma'am." "Thank you Ross, Gary?" "Yes." "Thank you. Now class open your books to page one-forty-three."
----------------------------------

The bell soon rang and everyone left the classroom. I walked out the door and turned the corner walking to my locker.
"Laura, wait up." I spun around curious to see who was calling me. It was Ross.
I keep walking. "Laura wait up." "What!" "Why are you yelling at me? I just stood up for you i-"
"I didn't need your help okay! You're not my boyfriend! I could of handled it on my own." "Laura you just sat there while he called you dumb and insulted you."
"Maybe I am dumb Ross. Maybe he's right," I say sighing. "He's not right," Ross says stepping closer.
"You're not dumb, and you're not ugly either. You're gorgeous. You're one of the prettiest things I've ever laid eyes on."
I feel my cheeks begin to heat up and I know my cheeks are as red as tomatoes. "Ross I know you don't mean that."
"I do. I meant every word of it," he say caressing my face. Before I could speak he started talking again," do you want maybe go out tonight?"
"You mean like a date," I gulped. "Well," he pauses,"yeah." "Ross you don't wanna go out with me. I have a messed up family and everything."
I take his hand," you wouldn't want to deal with me. Go find a skinny, pretty, rich girl to go out with. You don't want me."
"Yeah I do," he whispers kissing my forehead. "Please Laura go out with me." I thought for a moment," ok. Ok I will."
"If you give me your address I'll pick you up tonight around six?" "O-ok, what should I wear?" "Kinda fancy? You'll look good in anything," he says winking at me.
"Well I'm gonna head home see ya later," I say giving a small wave. "Bye Laura," he says turning away.
I head down the halls praying that my family won't scare him away later. Maybe I should of said I would meet him instead.
Hopefully it all plays out okay. Many thoughts run through my head as I walk home. Part of me wonders if Ross actually likes me and the other wonders if it's just a prank.
I walk in the front door and holler to my family, "I'm home!" I'm shocked to see mom in the kitchen making cookies.
"Mom?" "Oh hi honey, how was school?" She's sober, that means I can talk to her. "It was fine, actually I got asked out by this guy an-" She gasped," is he cute?"
I blushed, "yeah he's pretty cute." "Oh honey I'm so happy for you. Is it tonight?"
"Uh yeah. Hey mom can you promise me you and dad won't fight tonight?" "Yes." "And please no drinking?"
"We'll see." I sighed," ok I'm gonna go rest." I walk up stairs and set the alarm for 4:45. I began to whisper to myself," please let tonight be good."
