The Difference Between You and Me (GXG)

chapter 33

dakota's p.o.v

to sum up my weekend in one word, it would be boring. i didn't really go anywhere special. kenzie and i had a nice movie day on saturday at her house and then lucy came over sunday. we played games, ate, and did some sexual things. no one is surprised.

and now it's already monday. i'm standing at my locker with my two favorite people in the world. lucy already stopped at her locker quick and now she's standing with me and kenzie. i like that routine better because then the three of us can all stay near kenzie and i's locker.

"dakota?" lucy calls me, causing me to look at her. our eyes meet, and i rest my hand against my locker, waiting for her to talk.

"yeah?" i ask giving her a smile. she almost seems nervous. oh gosh, what is it?

"can i start calling you 'baby'?" she asks coming closer to me. my heart jumps out of my chest for a moment as i just nod, my body getting goosebumps.

"i like that." i tell her. she smiles, wrapping her arms around my neck for a moment and kissing me. i almost put my hand over her ass but i stop myself. i don't want to be one of THOSE people in school.

"i'm glad, baby." she winks as she pulls away and leaves me to keep talking my things out of my locker.

"aww." i hear on the other side of me and lucy and i both glance over. kenzie is leaning against her locker, staring at us. i laugh at her, seeing her puff out her bottom lip. "you two are too soft."

"how's hunter?" i ask, leaning down and grabbing something from the bottom of my locker.

"he's good. i'm seeing him tomorrow i think. hopefully he'll ask me." she says shrugging. i smile at her and nod, hoping he does too. she seems to really like him.

"i'll pray for you." lucy says to kenzie. kenzie gives her a thumbs up, thanking her.

"so um, where is the new student?" kenzie asks out of no where. oh i almost forgot. we haven't seen anyone new walk by yet.

all of a sudden, we all notice everyone staring down the hallway. we do too, and we have a glance of a big group of kids around one person. there is lots of chatter. "wow, they are popular already." i point out.

i then focus on the person walking out of the crowd, making their way down the hallway. once they get close enough for me to see, my eyes widen and i freeze completely. no.

kenzie looks back at me, her face full of shock and fear. i shake my head, putting my back up against the lockers. please no!

"dakota? are you-

i tune lucy's voice out as the person makes their way closer and hears my name. they turn their head, stopping what they were saying to someone random in the halls. our eyes meet, and her jaw drops. oh, my gosh.

"no way. dakota?" she comes closer to me, making me gulp and wipe my hands down on my pants. my palms are dripping with sweat. NO!

"m-molly?" i ask, my voice shaky. she stands in front of me, her eyes traveling down my body and all the way back up.

"hey mackenzie." she waves slightly, leaving kenzie frozen as well. all's she can do it wave back, looking at me in horror.

my middle school girlfriend. molly daze. let me tell you, she looks so different. she used to look so innocent, her hair being so long and thick that she would always keep it down and unbrushed. but she pulled it off. she never wore makeup and she always dressed like me. comfortable and lazy. now, she has a good face of makeup on with high waisted jeans. she has a short ac/dc shirt on with nike air sneakers. wow. what high school can do to you.
