(a year after the movie)
chapter one
Kelly walked up the steps of the building where the drill team practice was taking place. It was the end of the first day of a new school year and the other members of the team insisted on having a practice right away to try and improve their routines. She was slightly late so she went into the locker room to get her equipment. No one was in there.
"Late again, maggot?"
Kelly turned around and she saw Brad standing in the doorway. They saluted each other and she smiled.
"Are you calling me maggot? If so, you must be confused!" she replied playfully.
"Hey Kelly, how was your summer?" Brad asked.
"Great, yours?" she asked back.
"It was good. You ready to go in now? We're a little late," Brad said.
"Sure," Kelly replied, and they walked in together.
Kelly, Carla, and Amanda were outside of Kelly's house listening to music. It was the weekend after their first day of school. One of Kelly's favorite songs, Mandy Moore's "Crush", came on and she just couldn't resist. She got up and started to sing and dance.
"I got a crush on you. I hope you feel the way that I do. I get a rush when I'm with you. Ooh, I got a crush on you, a crush on you. Ooh I wish I could tell somebody but.."
She didn't get to finish, because her friends kept on signaling to her to stop. She turned around and there in front of her, silently laughing was Brad!
"Hi Brad!" Kelly hoped she wasn't blushing. She was so embarrassed.
"Hey! I need to see your step dad. Is he here?" He asked.
"Yeah, come on," and she showed him in.
When they were inside, Kelly realized that her stepdad was busy so she told Brad to just wait outside of his office door.
"So, the Welcome Back Dance is coming up. Are you going with anyone?" Brad asked.
"Well I was just going to hang with Carla since her date backed out on her," she answered.
"Oh, cool," he replied.
Was he just going to ask me out? Oh. My. Gosh, she thought.
