New bee!

Alec just drove in and parked his bike when he turned around to give Normal his clipboard. He walked over to the counter but he wasn't looking were he was going, he bumped into a girl.

"Oh, woops! Sorry, I didn't see you there."

"Oh, that's okay, it was my mistake too, wasn't watching were I was going either. Do you work here?" the girl asked

"Uh yea." Alec replied while checking out the girl from top to bottom.

"So, you know where your boss is?" she asked

"Yea, why?"

"I need a job."

"Oh, he should be around here somewhere, I'm sure he'll be out in a minute." Alec said "I'm Alec, by he way"

"I'm Iris" she replied and they shook hands.

Normal finally showed himself with a lot of packages in his hands, he threw one at Alec.

"Whoa! I don't think so boss, I'm done for today!"

"I don't think so mister! You're working overtime for that stunt you pulled last week!"

"Oh, right" Alec had wrecked a bike and now he had to pay for it. He left the bike in the middle of the street for someone to run over. He had a bet going with some guys. One of the guys had to run the bike down with a car and if both wheels would come off he'd get the winnings. Alec got all the money, cause the guy had only managed to bounce one wheel of the bike.

"So what did you do?"

"Oh nothing big." Alec replied, still remembering how the bike flew up in the air.

"Who's this?" Normal asked

"Oh, this is.

Iris interrupted "I'm Iris, I'm looking for a job, was hoping you'd have one for me."

"Wait here, I'll get an application form." And Normal walked away to get it.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to cut you of like that, but I'm perfectly capable of introducing myself." Iris said

"That's okay." Oh man, not another one with a mouth like Max.

Normal came back "Here, fill in this form." He was just about to ask her if she had a bike when she said, "Oh, by the way I have my own bike, so I don't need one from here." And she continued to write.

Alec and Normal exchanged looks. Alec walked away and headed for his locker when Sketchy tapped him on the shoulder.

"Oh, hey man."

"Hey Alec, so who's the new chick?" Sketchy asked

"Oh her, that's Iris."

"She's pretty hot, nice legs!"

"Yea, your right, but she's got a mouth like Max and OC. You say one thing wrong and she's all over you, just like Max." Alec said

"And.?"

"And what? Please tell me you're not gonna ask her out."

"That's not what I meant, well on that other issue I am in fact gonna ask her out, but what I meant was you said like Max and.. OC you forgot to mention her." Said Sketchy

"Oh right, but trust me, you don't wanna go out with her."

"Why not? You and Max get on each others nerves but you guys still hang out." Sketchy replied

"Yeah well, that's different."

"So going out and hanging out is different, well than ever dated Max?"

"What? No, of course not. What gave you that idea?" Alec asked

"Well just seemed like you're talking out of experience and you and Max always hang out so."

"I do have experience, but not with Max, I never dated Max" Alec said

"Who never dated me?" Max asked, she just walked in, just came back from her last run.

"Uhm, Alec." Sketchy replied, answering her question

"Hell NO! Me and Alec? Please."

"Hey, what's so weird about that? Something wrong with me?" He asked, while kinda feeling insulted.

"Well no, but you're.. You're Alec, you now?!" Max said, and turned around.

"I don't see anything wrong with you, I think you look just fine."

Alec and Sketchy turned around to see who said that. It was Iris, she just walked up to them.

"Well than you date him!" Max replied with a little tone of sarcasm in her voice, she turned around while slamming her locker shut.

"Well maybe I will!" she replied

Max looked a bit confused thinking it was OC saying that, "Oh, sorry, I didn't mean that, I thought you were someone else."

"That's okay, I'm new here I'm Iris." She extended her hand to Max while moving a little bit closer to Alec.

"Right" Max said while shaking her hand. There was something weird about this girl. We've met before, but that didn't turn out so well, I think we got into a fight. Oh that's right it happened back at Manticore! So what is she doing here and why is she pretending she doesn't know me?

This isn't that long and not that interesting, I know, but it'll get there (I hope). My head just isn't really in the game right now. I'm kinda busy with school right now, I'm in the middle of a test week right now. I should be studying right now, I know, but I just felt like I should write this. Anyway REVIEW! Ghosty girl
