Free Fall

Chapter 4

I'm still not sure how I feel about Brandon, but as I said before he definitely doesn't like me the way he sees Giselle. But I really do think I still like him.

At School today, we just about made it. The bell rang when we had arrived, we ran to homeroom just in time I thought. As I was running to class, I bumped into someone.

"Ouch!" I exclaimed. The figure started to laugh, I looked up to find Ryan. I could feel my cheeks turning a bright red.

"I'm going to a party afterschool tomorrow, I was wondering if you could come." Ryan asked me looking hopeful."I'll take you to my house after school." He said shouting, I nodded, getting lost in the crowd. I gave a happy sigh and smiled, I then ran to Science. Brandon had saved me a seat.

" What movie did you want to watch for tonight." he said, I was so confused, my face probably gave it away. "Don't you remember, we were going to watch a movie together tonight?"

"I'm so sorry, I completely forgot, I can't go anymore after school I'm going to Ryan's house" I said feeling really mean, Brandon gave me a sad look and went back to doing the work on the board.

As the day passed, I felt worse and worse for ditching Brandon. After school, Ryan was talking to another jock and signalled me to get in the car.

We talked about anything and everything and he was so sweet.

At his house he introduced me to his big sister Rydel who was so pretty. And his little brother Ross who was 15 and a freshman just like my little sister Harriet. But I strictly tell Harriet never to speak to me at school because I'm a junior.

Ryan's garden is the size of a football pitch and did I mention he has a pool, our pool is tiny compared to mine.

The next day, the doorbell rang. Harriet ran to get it, after sticking her tongue out at me rudely and laughing loudly.

Harriet opened the door and decided to embarrassed me right there and then. "Your too handsome for my sister," She spoke to Ryan, looking up to him.

"Shut up Harriet!" I hissed, really annoyed at my sisters childish behaviour.

"You look really hot," Ryan said, staring at me. Suddenly, my cheeks started to feel a lot hotter than before and my heartbeat quickened. My arch-enemy, the blush, had returned. In the background, Harriet was making horrid vomiting noises so I thumped her in the back, with much force. She screamed loudly, before running and shouting to dad.

"We should go before Little Miss Annoying comes back," Ryan laughed and I agreed wholeheartedly.

When we got to Brad's house, Brandon literally just came out of nowhere and stole my hair bobble. We then ran round the entire house, pushing everything out of the way. That was until, Giselle stopped Brandon and then started screaming at me for being 'immature'. Alice rolled her eyes, while I thought, B*tch please.

Ryan went to join his group, while I spoke to Brandon about how cool this party was. We spoke and spoke and spoke, until music came on and we started to dance together. Giselle watching in the background, giving me the 'step away from my boyfriend you low down dirty vermin'.

It truly was mine and Brandon's first ever dance. He put my hand my waist, while I flung her hands around my neck and we slow danced. As he gazed into my eyes, he slowly put his hand under my chin, closed his eyes and lent forward...

"What are you doing?" I asked, breaking his concentration and the daze he was in.

"Just...checking your okay,"Brandon said opening his eyes. He then started to blush and turned away. I blinked and Giselle started walking towards me.

"Don't you dare ever talk to Brandon again, I can do so much to you, I can ruin your life and turn your sweet little Brandon against you." Giselle laughed tears trickling down my cheeks "I can make you regret the day you were even born." She then briskly walked away.

Brandon came over and asked me what was wrong. I opened my mouth to speak and quickly shut it again. Ryan pushed his way through the crowd, he then put his arms around me.

"I'll take you home." Ryan kindly offered.

"I think I should take her" Brandon said.

"Just leave it Brandon!" Ryan whispered rather loudly pushing past Brandon.

I closed my eyes in Ryan's car wishing this was all a dream.
