003 - Player

[ This Is Basically A Filler Chapter, NGL :/ ]

Maybe I should go to the arcade after school. That'll make me less bored right?

Then I can be the best player!!

...That's not funny.

"So, arcade?" Paige asks me.

"I'm already the video game master so you can tag along if you like." I tease, nudging her. She cackles and puts her hands behind her head. "We'll see sista. We'll see..."

We come walking up to the school, and close enough to catch the glance of two people in the only car currently in the parking lot.

Steve and Nancy.

In the distance, we hear a loud car motor. Getting closer. It sounds like it's racing, a sports car maybe. Tires screech and hiss, getting louder every second it gets closer.

"Do you hear that?" I ask her. She nods her head, furrowing her eyebrows. "Yeah, no shit. Hunny."

I laugh, turning around and so does Paige. Steve's eyes widen with worry just as we leave his gaze.

"GIRLS LOOK OUT!!"

Me and Paige quickly jump out of the way, just as a blue sports car drives by. It revs every five seconds before turning into a park. Me and Paige cough from the dust rising from the surface of the gravel road.

"N/n, N/n, quick...come on." Steve hushes.

I continue to cough, gagging on the dust, and Steve helps me to my feet, while Nancy helps Paige up. Steve pats just above my back to help my coughing cease and Nancy tries to talk to Paige.

"Are you choking? Are you choking?"

You're...a fucking idiot.

"Are you okay?" Steve asks me seriously. His eyes warm with concern, which I see out the corner of my eye Nancy glares at me for. I nod my head silently, taking in silent breaths.

The four of us turn to the sports car. It's a blue Chevrolet Camaro. With a black stripe on the side. The label plate is even blue, with the word 'California' above the six letters and numbers.

A girl with ginger hair looks uncomfortable as she gets out of the car. Grabbing her skateboard from the back seat. She seems to be a new kid, around Mike or Will's age.

"Who the hell tried to run us over, imma cut him." Paige grumbles.

"Don't. Not worth it, seriously." Steve narks at her. The supposed driver takes one step out after opening the door. With blue jeans and black boots. A blue denim jacket-

Billy.

"Fuck he's hot." Paige says, biting her lip. I whack her arm and she giggles. This giggle catches Billy's attention. He smirks, that smug bitch ass face winks before walking away.

"He's got an ass, too."

"PAIGE!"

"He nearly ran you two over and you're gonna comment on his ass?" Nancy exclaims shocked.
