Into The Dark - A SOR Fanfic

Chapter 6

                       Tomika's POV

I glance nervously down at my watch. Maybe this is it! Maybe Freddy will come to his senses and realize what he's been missing out on. Ring!!! I jump, drawing everyone's eyes. I smile weakly, and shut my locker. Well here goes nothing. Taking a deep breath I stride up to Freddy's locker.

"Hey Freddy." I wave. "So, what did you want me to help you practice?" Clasping my hands I rock back and forth on my toes, waiting for his answer.

           "Promise you won't tell anyone." Freddy whispers, barley glancing at me. I nod, then realize his head is still in the locker.

            "Yes Freddy, I won't tell anyone." I whisper back. When the last person has left earshot, he turns to me.

             "So, there's this girl I like." He starts.

              "Wait, like, 'like, like'?" I ask, my heart pounding fast. He nods, then looks down the hallway twice.

               "I want to ask her out, but I don't know how to." Freddy says, his gulp audible. I smile giddily.

               "Just bluntly say it!" I say, throwing my arms in the air. "Almost any girl in this school would say yes." He looks at me confused, and I meant ally slap myself. Of course he doesn't like you, you idiot. "I said almost any girl!" I cough, trying to cover for myself. Then the most amazing thing happened.

          "So I've liked you for a long time, and I'm really sure you like me to. I hope you feel the same, but will you go out with me?" Freddy asks, clasping his hands together.

           "Yes!" I scream, flinging my arms around his neck and planting my lips on his. I hear a short gasp, then something hard hitting the floor. I back up and look at Freddy's face. But all I see is surprise, and hurt. "What's wrong Freddy?" I ask, touching his shoulder.

            "I was just practicing! Like I told you." Freddy gulped then looked away from me. Feeling my cheeks turning red I grimace and avert my eyes.

             "I think it would be best if I just left." I hiss. I see Freddy nod and turn back to his locker. And then I run, as fast as I could, but my shoe connects with the thing whoever was watching dropped. Carefully I pick it up, and turn it over in my hands. A cherry red button takes up most the space on the black box. I huff with frustration and chuck it. The button hits the wall, and it beeps. Gulping I close my eyes.

          "Oh come on!" I hear Freddy scream. I twirl quickly to see him standing underneath the roof tile above my locker. He slides his hands through his now covered in slime hair.

           "Summer!" I gasp, and turn to the hallway I was in.
