( chapter twelve )

"babe who are you looking for?" blane huffed as he sat next to blonde. her eyes were wandering around the building looking for the boys she nicely invited. "i invited a couple more friends, i don't know if they're coming though," she spoke lightly showing her boyfriend a small smile before returning her eyes to the entrance. "i can't wait to beat you bitches," elowen smiled cheekily as she tied the strings of her bowling shoes before getting up. "we'll see about that owen" dallas retorted, placing his phone on the table they reserved. the group of friends continued small talk and placed bets on who would place the highest and lowest.

madeleine started giving up, coming to terms that they were indeed not showing up. she turned over towards her boyfriend who was coming back from the cash register, making eye contact with him she patted the open space next to her. "actually babe, i accidentally bought an extra lane," he mumbled. "well can't you get a refund?" she asked, not trying to make a situation about the ordeal, "no its fine, who's down for a one on one with the one and only" blane replied bringing up his finger guns. "well i-" madeleine attempted to offer but valentina quickly cut her off. "i'm down trotskey" "you okay with that babe?" blane asked his girlfriend, who only nodded with a small smile. 'they're going to be two lanes down whats the big deal' she thought to herself as she watched them walk away.

"hey mads, i think your friends are here," dallas smiled shooting a look towards the entrance. madeleine's face turned to a smile as she noticed the blonde who tutored her looking around the building. "you invited them?" elliot's eyebrows furrowed looking over at his sister who was picking up her bag and beginning to walk towards them. "play nice, okay?" she smiled towards elliot and dallas before making her over completely.

"you guys came wow, umm well our section is over there, the shoes are over here, and food court is by the restrooms" she smiled pointing to the places around the building making sure they knew. "i've been to a bowling alley before, my skull isn't thick," reece mumbled, before walking to the lanes that were preoccupied by the group. "he's always a dick, don't worry about it sugar," blake shot a reassuring smirk as they walked towards the girls' group. george only smiled at his cousin as he walked behind the two taller boys.

reece hated to admit he actually wanted to see what madeleine and her friends were like out of school. he was tying his bowling shoes when he heard a break of laughter coming from a couple rows down. he turned his head and saw blane and valentina engulfed in each others arms, and watching as their hands slid the ball down the alley. "showing her how to bowl huh?" reece snarked at madeleine who was looking at the two as well. she only pulled the hair away from her face and looked away. "hey reece right? i'm elliot and this is dallas!" the boy nudged at dallas to pay attention, reece smiled awkwardly and introduced george and blake, even though elliot knew george and a tiny bit of reece from that one phone call, they pretended to just be meeting for the first time.

"didn't expect to see me outside of school or your bedroom huh princess?" blake whispered to delilah as she drank the soda from her cup. she coughed a but before turning towards him, "you're very full of yourself aren't you richardson" she whispered back diverting her eyes away from him to not make it obvious. he smiled in response and stood up for his turn. the group continued in a sort of silence, that was almost uncomfortable to say the least. they got along quite respectablely but it was hard for them to find something in common to talk about.

although they were madeleine's guest she couldn't help ignore them to stare at her boyfriend and one of her friends part taking in whatever it was they were doing. "you don't seem like the intimidated type at school," reece said as he made his way across from madeleine in the booth. "well we aren't at school are we?" she mumbled as she brought down the plastic cup she was holding with a slam. the plastic cup spilled the water over the girls hand and a little over the boys as well. "fuck i'm sorry," she rushed as her eyes darted towards the boys' wet hand.

he brought the napkin out from the machine on their table and dried his hands. the girl sat in shock as he grabbed her hand and wiped them clean as well with the spare napkin. "thanks reece," she stated making sure to meet his eyes when she said it. "about time i get a thanks from you," he mumbled causing the girl to roll her eyes. she pushes her way out of the booth as she smiled she picks her hand up to flip him off walking away backwards. the laugh erupted in his mouth unexpectedly and he only rolled his eyes at the thought of her.
