i whimpered and sniffled wiping my nose on my turtleneck sleeve. "oh god" lisa whispered looking at me. "what?" i acted offended, her golden earrings shining in the dark. "you're crying again" she huffed, "ruins the movie every time" she finished. "well sorry" i whispered sitting up to tuck my shoelace in my shoe. "whatever, i have to pee". she hoisted herself out of the bed of her dads truck and ran off, her skirt flowing in the wind. i tucked a chunk of hair behind my ear and looked back up at the movie being projected on the giant screen. the couple in the car next to me were making out, the tension in the air so thick you could cut it with a knife. i sipped on my soda and layed back against the blanket. the movie was well over, and the goonies was now playing on the screen. lisa hasn't come back yet and my leg was starting to fall asleep so i decided to take a walk. i wandered under the trees kicking up sticks, but kept an eye on the truck to see if lisa has returned to our make shift fort. i turned again to find the bed of the truck empty i turned again to continue my walk when i ran into a figure. the drinks and popcorn they were holding flew in the air and landed on my head. a rush of cold washed over me as the soda ran down my back, i shivered. "oh my god, i'm so sorry" a voice spoke. i tucked my hair behind my ear, "it's totally okay i bumped into-" i looked up to see corey on his knees picking up the soaked trash. "you." he threw the garbage away and walked back to me. "hey, you're margot right?" he smiled. "y-you know me?" i whispered dazed and confused. "yeah, you sat next to me in 6th grade" we're sophomores now. i smiled because he remembered. "yeah" i huffed out, wringing my hair between my fingers. soda dripped out and onto the grass beneath me. "oh, here" he rushed out, gripping the ends of his grey sweatshirt, pulling it over his sandy blonde hair. he handed it to me. "thanks" i shrugged. "corey!" i turned, lala sloatman, the lead cheerleader was leaning against a truck, which i'd assume was corey's. lala and corey are the power couple of ridgemont high. but they're off and on, breaking up and getting back together a month later. it circulated around school that lala cheated on him with the baseball team's left center- ilan mitchell-smith. "coming", he shouted back at her, he began walking. "wait!" i shouted, he turned to face me. "can i give this to you tomorrow?" I asked. "keep it" he smiled walking backwards towards an impatient lala. i turned and began walking to the bathroom, i smiled, clenching my teeth so hard i was sure i cracked a tooth. i went into the bathroom, changed my shirt, wrung out the old one before putting on corey's. i held the soft fabric to my nose, he smelled nice.
