Playing Games -On Hold-

Easy Times

                                                                  Ricki's POV

                         "Hey guys! What's up?" I say, while walking up to my friends.

             "We were just talking about the most recent abduction, " says Jace, "You know they keep getting closer to here."

"Yeah, it's kind of scary, what if the guy comes here soon?" I say to Jace.

                     There has been a chain of kidnappings all around South Dakota.  None of the kids have gotten home yet.  The first abduction was in Sioux Falls, about two months ago.  The police haven't found any bodies yet, so they are hoping maybe, just maybe that they are still alive.  The first ones that were taken were Dani Wells and Ally Moon.  Ally was seventeen just like my girl friend, Kate.  Dani was eightteen like me.  It honestly scares the hell out of me.

                             Jace replies with, " How do you know it's a guy Ricki?  It could be some messed up chick.

                    "I know it's a guy because only a guy could take two people at a time.  And plus the fact that people usually fight back when somebody tries to take them, unless of course you are too stupid to do that.  That's what I think anyway, wouldn't you?"

"Well, yeah, I guess so.  I didn't think about it that way."  was Jace's reply.

      "Anyways, on a different and happier note, do you think we are going to win the game tonight?" I asked, talking to everybody this time.  As a reply I get a chorus of 'Oh hell yes!' and 'well duh', I have learned my football team is very confident when it comes to game time.

 And then Robert says sarcasticly, "Yeah, I think we have a pretty good chance."

              "Ok, I'm going to go find Kate, I'll see you guys later." I say and then walk off.

                                                                   Kate's POV

                  "So, what should we do this weekend?" I ask my best friend, Dez. 

"We could go to the movies, I heard that Dark Shadows is playing, and it's supposed to be really funny." 

"Ok, sounds good." I pause seeing Ricki weaving through a group of students.

                When he is finally next to me he leans down and kisses me on the cheek.  It's just a small gesture but it makes my insides go all weird, it feels like electricity is going through my whole body.

                I look up at him and for the thousandth time I realize how amazingly perfect he is.  He has short brown hair,  his muscular body, and the most beautiful blue eyees I have ever seen.  He is always sweet, polite, and caring.  My parents love him, and so do I.

               "Hey baby, how are you today?" he asks me. 

           "I'm fine, how are you?"

             "I'm absolutely terrific!  I can't wait for the game tonight, you're going, right?" he says. 

            "Yes, of course!  I wouldn't miss it for the world."

                   Friday night football games are the high light of my week.  The victory parties are amazing, and trust me there is usually always a victory for our team.

                 Tonights game is against the Night Hawks.  We won last time we played against them, so it's kind of expected this time. 

                 "Good, because it sould be an awesome game." he says, interupting my thoughts.

                  He leans down to kiss me again, but this time on the lips.  He doesn't pull away, and niether do I.  I don't want him to.  When he kisses me I feel a shock, and then warmth washes over my whole body.  These are the moments that I live for, when his lips are on mine. 

                  Dez clears her throat, letting us know she is still there.  I pull away, feeling my cheeks start to blush.  And then I say, "We have to get to class, see you later Ricki." blowing him a kiss as we walk away. 

                "What in the world was that all about?  I mean you guys are cute and all, but seeing that every day is kind of getting annoying." Dez says. 

             "I'm sorry, but I don't know, he makes me feel amazing, and plus he is an amazing kisser." I explain.

                   I know I shouldn't be telling her this because she likes Ricki, just like pretty much every other girl in this school.  What suprises me is that out of every other girl that wanted to be with him, he chose me.

                      I don't think of myself as the prettiest girl in school, but I also know that I am not ugly.  I don't  want people to think I'm a stuck up bitch, so I am nice to everybody in school.  I have bright blond hair, blue eyes, I am kind of tall, and I guess my body is sort of good looking.  I just know I'm not the best he could have had.

                   When we get to english we sit down, right as the bell rings.  The teacher tells all of us to take our seats.

                   The english teachers name is Mrs. Lochie.  She is my least favorite teacher in the school.  She is a short, old woman that wears too much make- up.  She gets on my nerves,  besides the fact that she teaches my worst subject, she always gets right in your face so she knows for sure that you are listening to her, and her breath always smells like coffee.  It's gross.

                      This class bores me to death, so I take out a piece of paper, fold it in half and write, 'This class is like torture'  and then I pass it to Dez.  She reads it and then quickly writes something, and passes it back.  When I read it I have to hold back my laughter, it says, 'No actually I think I would prefer the torture to this, it would be a lot less painful, or at least that's what I think anyways.' 

                       That's all we do all period, is pass notes back and fouth, until the end of class.  It's ok though because I never pay attention during this class anyways, so it's not like it would have made much of a difference.  At the end of class we have about three pages filled with notes about random things.

                       When I walk out of class Ricki is standing by the door waiting for me, like always, so he can walk me to my locker and then to my next class. 

                   "Hey beautiful." he says, making me blush. 

               We start walking down the hall, as I say, "So, I think that we should revisit our scene this morning, that Dez so rudely interrupted, what do you think?"

                "I think that is a perfect idea." he says, stopping at my locker.  He pushes me up against the lockers, and presses his lips onto mine. I'm overcome by the most amazing feeling when the bell rings. 

                 Ricki pulls away and says,"Oh shit we're late for class, do you need anything from your locker, or are you ready for your next class?"

                        "I'm ready, lets go, and I plan to finish this after school, so be ready" I say.

                    We are walking to math when he says," I wouldn't miss it for the world." he gives me a very cheesy smile, that always makes me laugh. We are at my class now, he gives me a quick kiss and then heads off to his class.
