My Freshmen Year and Its Secrets

Chapter 3: The Football Game Fumble

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!!!

"FRIIIIICK. Ugh. That stupid alarm. So loud..." I rolled out of bed and stumbled to turn off my alarm clock.

It's the end of my first week of school and I still have a hard time going to school and waking up in the morning. But, today is gonna be an amazing day. Was Friday and Varsity was having their first home football game. I never really watched the game, but I instead talked to my friends behind the bleachers.

Lyle and I are best friends now. We tell each other all our secrets and I trust him with my life. It sucks that he's in Middle school. Adam is another one of my guy friends. He's in middle
School too. Adam and Lyle are both in 8th grade, so I'll see them next year plenty. Adam and I actually had a little bit of a thing during the first few weeks of summer but, it slowly and painfully died.

I stared at the table in the lunch room, tapping my finger to a steady rhythm.

"You guys going to the game tonight? It's home." I asked.

"Who are we playing?" Ryanne questioned.

I shrugged my shoulders. I never knew who we were playing until the game was over.

Anna elbowed me, "I'll go."

I smiled and stood up as the bell rang.

I slammed the passenger side door and zipped up my jacket. It's freezing! School was terrible. Waay too many tests in one day, but that didn't matter now.

I payed for my 5$ ticket and headed behind the bleachers. I found Adam, Miles, Lyle, and Anna almost right away. Lyle was hanging out with a girl named Alice and their band of misfits. Miles was talking to some guys. Anna was by Adam and Adam was munching in some skittles. I had walked over to Adam and grabbed a few skittles from his hand when Chuck walked over to us.

Chuck is, I would guess, 5'4. He's really funny, but he always seems really depressed. I don't like lying, so I'm just gonna say it. He's kinda cute. Pretty blue eyes and his hair mimicking the late Justin Bieber hair. Yah know, before the hair cut.

Adam is probably 5'2. He tells everyone he's 5'4, but he's lying! :) Adam has bright brown eyes that are almost chocolatey and his hair almost matches his eye color. He's so scrawny and his parents own a restaurant downtown. I met him last year in choir, and he's a great friend. Annnnd I really like him...

Anyways, Chuck walked over to Adam and did what I was thinking about doing ever since I got there.

He grabbed the bag of skittles and ran. Fast. No words were said.

Adam blinked and just watched his friend run off with his candy.

I, of course, was laughing my head off, alongside Anna. But then, I realized something. Everyone around us were holding hands, hugging, or kissing someone.

"I WANT A BOYFRIEND!" I screamed. Well, more like squealed. Adam and Anna flinched and scowled at me.

"A little warning next time Katrina. Please." Adam said to me, but I was too busy thinking aloud to hear him.

"Wouldn't it be great to be in a relationship? Just being happy, holding hands, going on dates. I am a princess and it's about dang time my prince step forward! Where is my prince?!" My voice carried around us and almost everyone was staring at me.

Anna looked at me with her sassy face on and stated, "Honey, your Prince Charming left you for Snow White a long time ago."

I raised an eyebrow at her, "Your comebacks have gotten worse, if possible, over summer break." She stuck her tongue out at me, like a five year old.

"For now, I just want to have fun." Adam said. I nodded in agreement.

Later that night, when I had gotten home from the game, I hopped on Facebook to find a new friend request and a new message from a guy that goes to my High School. His name was Ryan. He wasn't in my grade, he was either a Sophomore or a Junior.

Ryan: hey heard u want a bf. I am one of Miles friends maybe we can hang out sometime

I quickly checked out his profile picture to see if I knew him. He didn't look familiar to me. He wasn't that attractive either.

Me: haha i was just thinking out loud but k

Ryan: lol u r cute

Me: thxs

I quickly sent Lyle a text.

Me: i simply don't understand guys

Lyle: lol me neither. why

Me: some guy I don't know is kinda freaking me out

I got another message from Ryan.

Ryan: nah u r hawt not cute

Me: umm thxs

I switched over to Lyle.

Lyle: wait who

Me: this guy named Ryan. I have no clue who he is and he just called me "hawt" lol XD

Lyle: just tell him u r dating someone

Me: m'kay

I went over to Ryan.

Ryan: Np qt ;)
Ryan: u there
Ryan: I think I'm gonna write a rap bout you

Me: um I have a bf already sorry

Ryan: I knew it I knew it was 2 good 2 be true
Ryan: who is he

Crap. I went to text Lyle for advise.

Lyle: well?

Me: not good. he wants to know who I'm dating. what do i say now?!?

Lyle: tell him you r dating me I don't even think he knows me

Me: idk if that's a good idea

Lyle: go ahead. Idc. girlfriend ;) jk but really tell him it's me

Me: ok I guess

I went to tell Ryan the news.

Me: you don't know him

Ryan: who

Me: you don't know him..

Ryan: tell me

Me: Lyle he's in 8th grade

Ryan: dont know him
Ryan: I gtg bye

Me: c ya

I sighed. I texted Lyle thanks then headed off to bed, the busy day I had ran through my mind while I tossed and turned.
