My "normal" life with boys.

Chapter 4

Chapter 4-

No. I didn't go to work. I mean, who in the right mind would go to work to see the exact same boy that walked out of their house the same morning? Definitely not me, that's for sure. I planned on staying home for the rest of the night considering I had no other plans, I might as well.

Just at that moment my phone started vibrating. The screen showed a number I didn't recognise. Who was this calling?

I answered "hello?"

"Hey, um I know I'm probably the last person you want to talk to now but mind if I call around?" Yep, it was fantastic the reason I didn't go to work was to avoid Liam and here he was ringing me? Amazing. "Hey you still there Katie?"

"Yeah I'm here," I didn't want to see him at all, "I don't feel too well sorry Liam it's best you don't call."

"Oh...um, I'm sorry it's just I-I...never mind. I'll see you soon," and with that he hung up. What's his problem?

Anyway, I was getting bored of the whole staying at home idea so I decided to go to the shop, I mean a girl can't be having a lazy day without munch, right? So I put some shoes on and decided to walk I mean, why not?

I arrived at the local corner shop ten or so minutes later, after picking up all the necessities (icecream, chocolate, marshmallows you know the stuff I need) I went to the check out to find the devil himself, Ricky. Who knew he worked here? Not me that's for sure.

I'll just put up my hood and pretend I don't know him. Yeah. That's a great idea, note the sarcasm.

Crap.

I forgot.

I was still I'm pajama bottoms and his jacket.

Oh no.

"Hey that'll be five sixty please."

He didn't recognise me? Thankyou god.

"Yeah here." Great Katie now leave before he says anything. Hide your face and go. And that's exactly what I did.

I sped walked away like there was no tomorrow but it's never that easy is it?

"Hey ma'am?" Great. Not only did he follow me, but he called me ma'am? Who the hell does he think he is? I'm no old lady! I'm a little miss if anything, thankyou very much.

"You forgot this," oh yeah, my keys nice one Katie. Well played. "Are you gunna talk or..?" Just walk away. Do it. My mind begged Ricky to leave, while I stood there hoping he wouldn't recognise me still and at last he left.

"Okay I'm just gunna go," THANK GOD "You should wear that more often by the way," and he walked away. Dammit. I'll just die of embarrassment now shall I?

As soon as I got home I ate all my junk food like I've never eaten before. Praise The Lord for the inventor of smores. I was still a bit caught up in all of my recent drama, the boy I like is sneaking his way into my life and I woke up in the football captains apartment. Wow. Just saying this is like a soap opera to me.

I wonder if Ricky has ever noticed me before? I mean, after all I am on the school's dance squad. That's nothing good though, the football team have never seen us perform before because we always do it at half time of all their games, so it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't know we were even there to be quite honest. I wasn't the best at the dances they chose for the matches mainly because I was more a street dancer. I was the best in my group outside of school. We were called the hounds. Not the best name for a dance group but were all proud to be part of it. Mia, Joe and I are all a hounds so we always go to practise together, we've always loved to street dance, ever since we were all little we would all go every Saturday.

Back then it was easy.

I miss those days.

Anyway I'm losing my thread; there's a football match coming up this Friday and maybe this time it will be different. It's a home game, so that means the boys will sit on the bench during half time. That way they'll see the dance we perform for them. That way Liam will see me dancing. I've been practising so much for this one time he will see me dance and now I have the chance to show off my skills. Maybe he'll like it? Who knows?

I fell asleep that night over thinking the upcoming football match his Friday.

It was 7:30.

I had half an hour to get ready for school. Great, just great.

I had the worlds fastest shower and dried my hair in record quick time, as well as brushing my teeth super quick. My hair for the day would be French plaited so it would stay out of my face. I changed into some pale green skinnies and a white tank top, finishing my look with white converse and a blue jumper. I checked the time to see it was 7:45, I had fifteen minutes to get to school which isn't that bad due to the fact I could get there in ten in my board.

Another thing for you to know about me? I skate board.

Anyway, I grabbed my favourite board and heading out the door only stopping to grab a granola on my way out. As I walked down my path I noticed a familiar car at the end of my drive.

Liam's car to be precise.

'What does he want now?' I thought to my self as I walked up to the car. I knocked on the window and Liam looked up at me, a smile tugging at his lips.

"Hey K-Katie, I was um wondering if you wanted a ride to school?" He stutters? That's new.

"Yeah sure," I replied a little too quickly but hey, I was eager to see what he wanted. I walked around the car and hopped in the passenger seat, popping my skate board in the back. We drove in silence for a few minutes until Liam awkwardly coughed, you could almost tell it was on purpose.

"So..um you ride? I never knew that. It's cool to see a girl skate boarding, because it's more of a boys thing you know?" He stopped, realising what he just said "not that you can't do it, it's just not that girly."

I raised an brow "so I'm not 'girly' enough?" I was offended to be quite honest.

"Ugh..no this isn't coming out right." Liam sighed. I felt bad that I was the reason for that sigh. But hey he called me a boy.

I couldn't stand to see him this aggravated "Liam," he looked up, the look in his eye resembles that of a lost puppy. I continued "I get it, thanks" I gave a weak smile. I didnt even notice we had arrived at school already now. I muttered a quiet 'thanks' and got out of the car. Surprisingly, Liam stayed in the car and kept running his have through his smooth hair. He looked frustrated at the very least to say.

Anyway, another exciting day at school.

I walked to my locker to get my book for mt first lesson, science. That was when I banged into the queen be herself.

yay

"Watch where youre going loser!" she demanded, pushing me.

"oh goody," I thought aloud, as.soon as I realised I spoke my thoughts aloud I slapped my mouth hoping she never heard.

Stacy turned on her heels and glared at me "Excuse me?!" she shouted. I remained silent as she started to draw attention from a few students in the hall. "Just like I thought, you're a pathetic little bitch. Keep out of my way you vermin." she spat.

"Give me a break." this time I spoke up "Stacy do us all a favour and give us all a break. Im fed up of this crap." this wasn't me but I sure was enjoying it.

"You Little bitch!" she screamed and went to slap me. I closed my eyes and embraced for impact but it never came. My eyes fluttered open to see Ricky stood infront of me blocking Stacys slap.

Ricky was guarding me from his girlfriend?
