Operation Eric

Chapter Ten

I leave Lucas in the car, I don't know what is going on but ever since I found out about his sister, everything just feels awkward and just strange. He didn't say anything during breakfast or the car ride home. I am not coming over tomorrow.I will come over after his try outs and then begin to solve this case. How do you solve a case? Crap. I go to my locker and Ashley is standing there and I wave. She has the meanest look I have ever seen. 

"You had me worried sick. I thought something serious was happening. I was going to drive over there but I did not know 'Eric's" address and if I ask someone for it, I am a 'slut'. I am so angry at you. What happended that was crazy romantic?" she finally blurted out as I got close enough. I sigh. And continue to my locker, should I lie? Of course! He trusts me. I will just tell her about the concert and ice cream and Kristen Montgomery screwing everything up. 

"I will tell you tonight, sleep over, please?" I ask her and she nods. I walk away from her and look down at my History book and binder to see our notes from yesterday tucked into it. And i get bumped. I look at the ground and begin to pick up my stuff,

"Oh dude, I am so sorry. I don't know if you remember but I am, um, name is Logan." he says as he picks up my book and rubs his neck with his hand. He is nervous. Why? 

"Oh yeah, I shared fries with you. Yeah it's all good." I say as I smile at him.

He smiles again, "The least I could do is walk you to gym, since I also have gym first period." 

I nod and walk with him and I look up to see Luke. Crap he looks very mad. We walk right by him and to the gym and separate at the locker rooms and i thank him. 

I go into the locker room to hear Kristen taking about how Lucas and her hooked up last night and I showed up and flipped and she thre ice cream at me. Oh God, Help me.

I walk up to her and push her against the lockers, " You and I both know damn well you guys did not hook up because Luke and  left from school to the Fall Out Boy Concert and then to get ice cream but  you followed us into a different town where we got ice cream because you're a desperate whore." I yell in her face. How could she make up a story like that? Saying she hooked up with him is bad enough but that I was jealous? She must be out of her mind. I change for gym as fast as I can and see Logan standing along. I walk over to him. I sigh, "Hey dude." He looks over and smiles at me,

"You okay?" he askes, his smile turning into a frown.

"Yeah just Kristen made up some rumour that she hooked up with Lucas and I was jealous so she threw ice cream at me. When really, Lucas and I yesterday left, and went to a concert and he took me to get ice cream afterwards where she threw her ice cream at me, telling me to 'take her leftovers'." I say very quickly and quietly so no one can hear.

"Well, don't worry about her. She is cleary jealous of that you are hotter than her and she is intimated by you stading up to her. Just don't even let it bother you, that is what she wants. I would know." he replied with a smirk. He would know? I am ready to ask when the coach calls for us at the bleachers. 

"Today's game is volleyball! Girls vs Girls. Guys vs Guys. Winning team of both vs each other. Break up into teams for six." The coach yells, while giving everyone a number. I am in the group of threes. Yes! Ashley. She is great at volleyball. And four other girls we don't know. I hear one girl saying she is on the volleyball team, making three volleyball players. 

*Luke's P.O.V.* 

I am not listening to anything the coach says because I am too busy worrying about Logan and how he walked Shay to class today! I mean I just told him lest than 15 minues ago not to interfere with my relationship and here her goes. I mean he better not tell her! I am in the group of twos with Andrew Summits and Michael Reed. Not too bad but I don't know the rest of these kids. Girls first. First group goes up and Logan sits down next to me.

"What the hell are you doing? Walking my girlfriend to gym! I told you not to interfere!" I say harshly to him.

"HA man, chill. We have to be friends now so when you dump her after banging her, she will come to me for comfort because I actually care." he sneers back at me. I have to ignore him or I will end up beating the shit out of him in the gym. Guys number one are called and he gets up. Thank you. I am about to fall asleep when guys two are called and I get up to hear, " You got this Lucas baby." and I turn to see Shannon sitting next to Kristen Montgomery. Damn. Hell is going to break loose. I wink at her and Kristen yells and stomps off to the locker room. I play to my best, and i feel sweat dripping and we win. Girls three is called as soon as Kristen sits down and I go to take my seat. I watch as Shannon walks down. You can see her curves perfectly in those shorts and that shirt. The way she walks drives me insane, the way her hair sways back and forth when it's in a ponytail. I am so whipped for her. And I do not like her. 

'Yeah, Princess, You beat them!" I yell as Shannon is about to serve the ball. She smiles. She serves perfectly over the net, running to her position. I never knew she was this atheltic. It is amazing. They rotate and she is in the front. Her spikes are amazing. She jumps up and spikes Kristen Montgomery right in the face. Classy. I laugh as everyone gasps. Amazing spike that wins the game. 20-8. She sits down next to me, not feeling the slightest bit guilty. I put my arm around her and she leans in. 

"What was that for?" I ask her. She snorts.

"She thought it was funny to tell everyone you and her hooked up and I was jealous so she spilled ice cream on me so she got what she deserved." She said with a grin.  I smile at her in shock. Gym continues and I watch as the girls three beat all the girls. Left is us and I am determined to go against Shay. See who is better. We win. It's my group against hers and I am nervous. I can't seem to concentrate on the game when she jumps and spikes. Her concetration face is amazing and how competetive she is. They win. Thanks to me and my thoughts. By two points. She smiles at me then sticks her tongue out and i grab her around her waist and spin her and I put her down quickly. I can't get attached. No way. I hope she didn't notice that and become distant with me. We are already sort of distant, ever since she found out about Lacey. I don't think I should pass notes with her today. That was a mistake from yesterday. I shouldn't of brought her over. This isn't going as planned. She sit down next to me again but I don't put my arm around her.
