You Can't Have Us Both

Chapter 3

I put my hands on my hips and spoke loud enough for everyone to hear, whose eyes were probably on us by now. "I said-!" I was suddenly cut off by a whistle nearby, it was coach Ashton. Of course, he would be the one to break up this cat fight. Probably so him and Barbie could play in the 'dream house' later.

"Hey! You two break it up!" he turned back and continued checking off the attendance. Ashley turned back and faced me. "I'll make you eat those words hoe." With that she didn't even wait for me to say anything and stalked off and started immediately flirting with a guy. I sat back down and picked my History book back up and mumbled. "Yea, and I'm the hoe."

I had sat there for awhile trying to memorize everything I needed to know when another voice interrupted me. "Hey", his voice was deep and I knew who it was I looked up annoyed to come face to face with a blonde haired brown eyed boy of medium height. I was trying to be nice, he didn't deserve my attitude. "Hi Brant." I bent my head back down to my book.

Suddenly he say next to me and waited. I slightly turned my head impatiently. "Is there something in particular you needed Brant?" He kinda looked away, then up, then down, then back at me. Finally words came out of his mouth.

"Actually...yes. See...there is a party at Ashley's tonight and I already know that your going-" I interrupted him. "How did you know I was going?" "Well," he continued, "Jason was telling us about it, and I was kind of wondering...." I looked at him both eyebrows raised. He started stumbling his words as he got nervous. "If maybe me and party could go to the you! I mean! Damnit!" I sat there for a second and then started laughing.

He looked at me in shock and kind of chuckled too. I finally calmed down and said, "would you like to try that again?" He grinned and nodded, then took a deep breath and said it slowly this time. "Do you want to go to Ashley's party with me?" I thought about it seriously for a minute. I was suppose to be going with Alex and Jason tonight. But surely since Brant asked me so nicely and we are just friend they won't mind. I was still unsure.

"I don't know Brant, I kind of promised Alex and Jason I would go with them." I bit my bottom lip, I didn't want to hurt his feelings. He really was a nice guy. He still had hope in his eyes though. "What of we met up there? How about that?" I thought some more and thought in my head, 'Why not?' so I looked at home and smiled and nodded my head. That brought a bright smile to his face. "Cool!" I'll see you tonight then. He was still grinning as he walked away.

I smiled and shook my head and went back to my book.

*So how do you think Alex and Jason are going to react when they find out that Adalina is going to the party with another guy?*
