Wait A Minute, Soulmates? Huh?? {6}

CHAPTER 6

I continued helping Luke out, tutoring him through the whole first page. Then the bell rang.

* * * * * *

I showed Luke around and was basically his tour guide the rest of the day. That gave me a lot of time to study him though. His hair is so brown and curly! It's absolutely adorable, but nothing more. His eyes are startlingly gray, with flecks of blueish if you look hard enough. He's not too pale, but not tanned. There are a few freckles across the bridge of his nose, but they aren't stand-out-ish. Hmm not bad. That's all he'll every be though, "not bad". Average. Kind of cute. Second best. That sort of thing. I can just tell.

He makes me laugh though, so hard a few times that I even snorted - snorting is very embarrassing - causing the teachers to frown at us. He's not boyfriend material for me, but I saw Chenisse blushing lots around him. He'd make a good best friend though. One that can help me unravel the mysteries of the male-mind. Not that I'm really looking for a relationship right now, but I DO need a date to the semi-formal. I think I'm starting to get a bit better. About River I mean. Not so depressed, almost ready to move on. I can still remember that day we went to that middle school dance - wait, is Luke saying something?

"Hello? Abbi?"

"O-oh! Sorry, day dreaming!"

"I said what do we have next? I lost my schedule."

"Oh. Well if you're in my class, history. Although Mrs. Drawst isn't very," I pause trying to find the right word. "Traditional. She prefers stories to textbooks. Which is fine by me, remembering dates and times was never a specialty of mine."

"Ah but I know I'm not taking history this year. So since I won't be with you..?

"Oh! Then you'll be with Chenisse." I said gesturing towards her with my head. "In technology class. A.K.A computer class."

"Just me and you then Blondie." He winked at her. "So what's the teacher like?"

"L-laid back I guess." She kind of stuttered. He smiled back and said 'good, that's how I like it.'

Together, they walked down the hall, turning right to jog upstairs. I smiled, glad they were getting along so well. Maybe.. they COULD be more. It's a possibility. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed.

*RING* {a BLARING ring}*

Oh SHOOT! I'm going to be late! No, that's just the warning bell. If I hurry.. I think i can make it! I fast-walk down the hall, turned left and kept going. When I reached computer class, I breathed a sigh of relief and shuffled into the room. Unfortunately, i had to sit in the very front row in History. Assigned seating, by last name. Suckish right? Well.. if there was one class I had to sit in front in {which there thankfully is, only one} I'm glad it's this one. Oddly enough, history is interesting. Mrs.Drawst makes sure it is.

* * * * * *

"Bye!"

"See ya!"

"Tomorrow morning, front steps, BE THERE!" I said, pretending to be all "serious-like". Luke could see through it though, and he just nodded with an amused twinkle in his eyes.

Me and Chenisse walked to my car together, heads bent together, discussing Luke. Turn out that wasn't her car I saw this morning, her mom drove her to school. Just a coincidence I guess. On the way to her house, she wrote down this list on a napkin (not used, of course) that she found in the front dash of my car.

LUKE

GOOD

-Cute

-Smart (everything except math)

-Nice

-Funny

BAD

-Not good at math

-Kinda short. (Chenisse put that one. SHE is tall. I'M not.)

Not too shabby, huh? That 'good' list is way longer than the 'bad' one.

"Man, you too would be pretty cute together." I said matter-of-fact-ly.

"Stop". She whispered, obviously embarrassed.

"Hey, we're the only ones in this car. We can talk. So you like him then?"

"Maybe." She looked down. "Okay, yeah, a little."

I smiled. We giggled a bit. Then I said "Thanks, I had a good day" just before she got out of the car at her house. "Good day" is code for "River-free thinking day".

That's everything significant in my day.
