Chapter 2: Popeyes Chicken

Chapter 2

Popeyes Chicken!!

"What do you think of this?" Daisy asks me holding up a black tank top that says 'All the cool Girls are Lesbians!'

"I am not a lesbian," I say my eyes widening and a blush forming on my cheeks, Daisy just laughs as she throws the shirt into our shopping cart. This has been happening for the past half and hour, Daisy sees something she likes or finds funny and throws it into the shopping cart no matter what I say. I must admit she is a pretty cool person though and she's funny, besides arrogant and sarcastic.

She throws a pair of skinny jeans, really short shorts, and more funny shirts into the shopping cart, before we head to the register.

"This is going to cost an arm and a leg," I say with wide eyes as we go to the cash register.

"Good thing you have all three of those," She says rolling her eyes.

"250 dollars and eighty-two cents," The cashier says and my mouth falls open.

"Close your mouth," Daisy says "That's so unattractive," I snap my mouth shut as she pulls out a debit card.

"Rebecca and John are going to be mad," I say as we walk out of the store before loading up Daisy's black and purple Camaro.

"No they're not," She says closing the trunk "Where do you want to eat?" She asks sitting in the driver's side starting the car.

"Um, I'm not sure what restaurants you have down here." I say.

She smiles before pulling out of the parking lot "Have you ever had Popeyes?"

"You mean like the cartoon character?" At that her smile grows even wider as she turns up Maroon 5 and speeds out of the parking lot.

"Please tell me that's Popeyes I smell," Zach says walking into the kitchen.

"Yes sir it is," Daisy says popping Zach's hand as he's about to reach into the chicken box "Nu uh, Rachel first," She says getting out a purple glass plate and passing it to me, she nods to the chicken box "Get a piece," She pulls a bottle of red stuff out of the cabinet.

The door swings open and Cody walks in reaching for a piece of chicken like Zach did but Daisy pops him too. He frowns rubbing his hand "What was that for?"

"Rachel's never had Popeyes before," She informs them and they both look at me in shock.

"My goodness," Austin says walking into the kitchen with Rose in tow "How could you not have eaten Popeyes before?" He sits down at the counter across from me "What do you Northerners or whatever you call yourselves eat?"

I shrug "Panera Bread," I grab a leg out of the box.

"She went for the best part," Daisy says excitedly as she pours the red stuff onto my plate "Dip," She instructs with a smile as they all watch me curiously.

I nervously dip my chicken into the red stuff before bringing it to my mouth cautiously. I bite into the chicken just as Jason walks into the room. For a second everything's okay the chicken's fantastic but they're still watching me and my mouth starts to burn.

"Oh my god," I say as Rose passes me a glass of water with an apologetic look.

I chug the water down as they start to laugh, Jason has a sly smile on his face that makes my heart start to beat faster. Daisy turns around to look at him and they exchange a look before everyone starts to dive into the chicken box.
