Laila & Tanner

Chapter 3: Laila

Omg! Tanner just talked to me!
"Haylie! Tanner gave me his number!" I squealed.

"Holy crap thats awesome!" Haylie screamed. We held hands and jumped up and down like little girls do. Except we did it way hotter than a little kid. We stopped and walked back to the game. Rider ran up to me in a worried look.

"Are you okay, Laila?" he asked.

Haylie replied "She is fine, Rider."

"No, Im more than fine! Tanner gave me his number! He totally likes me!" I denied.

"Did he ask you out? If he really likes you he would have asked you out." Rider advised me.

"Well, no. He didnt ask me out. But, he gave me his number! Doesnt that mean anything?" I questioned.

"Unless you call him and he askes you on a date then, no. He might just wanna be your friend. Anyways, I dont think hes your type of guy. He'll probably break up with you after a week or so. Maybe you should go out with Carter." Rider suggested.

"No way am I ever going out with Carter! Hes such a dork!.....Did he tell you to say that?" I asked Rider.

"Maybe...but, yeah Carter can be kinda dorky but, he has a great personality and he really likes you." Rider told me.

"I get he likes me. I actually think hes TOO obsessed with me! Like, I get why he likes me. Just look at me! Im also really nice, fun, and helpful. Of course he likes me. But, he isnt what Im looking for in a guy!" I exclaimed.

"What do you look for in a guy then?" Rider wondered.

"I want a guy with blond hair, blue-grey eyes, muscles, loves to come to the beach, is funny, cute, weird, tall,...." I start to explain to Rider.

"So your basically saying Tanner?" Rider defined.

"Well I am in love with him! Ever since grade 4. Hes the best!" I beamed.

" You are kind of obsessed with Tanner arent you?" Rider implied.

"Ish. But not like Carter-Obsessed! I just talk about him all the time, want him all the time, want him to hang out with us all the time......holy shit.....I am Carter-Obsessed with Tanner!" I realized.

"Yeah, you kind of are. Anyways, go get the ball you dumbass!" Rider joked. I slapped him in the face. Thats what he gets for calling Laila Beckham a dumbass! I walk slowly to get the ball to annoy Rider. He may be my best guy friend, but, he can still be annoying. While walking I realized something. I dont wanna be Carter-Obsessed with Tanner. He might not like me for that. I gotta stop being Carter-Obsessed and start being Regular, Teenage Girl-Obsessed. Time to get started....as soon as I get this ball.
