Chapter Two
"Hey Sophie honey, when is Lee's next game?" Ask Jamie Lyn as I climbed into her silver convertible placing my Louis Vouiton Speedy at my feet.
"Monday, they're playing against Highercroft so it'll be a tough game." I said as I slipped on my Chanel Sunglasses.
"Is he training tonight?" She said slipping on her D&G Sunglasses and pulling out of my drive heading to Trisha's to pick up her and Mel.
"I don't know, he didn't say so." I sat back looking up as the sun shone down on us.
"Text him."
"He's not."
"Perfect!"
"Am I missing something Jamie Lyn?" I said lifting my sunglasses slightly.
"Come on Sophie, you're his sister. I can't tell you because you'll tell him, I know how close you two are. Plus you never say anything about what you and Derek get up to." She smiled knowing she'd proven a point as she pulled into Trisha's drive.
"You know that's different, there's nothing to tell! Plus there is no me and Derek...really. It's not like we're dating." This was true, we weren't dating so there was no us. But deep down, I wish there was.
"So get moving and ask him out!" And with that Trisha and Mel climbed into the car.
"Hey Girlies!" Said Jamie Lyn as she set off towards school.
"Hey Jamie Lyn, hey Sophie, you both look stunning as usual!" Trisha said cheerfully as she handed me a Peppermint Mocha and Jamie Lyn a Chocolate Chip Latte. Trisha did this ever morning, her mum owns Café De Luxe which has the most delicious Lattes, Cappucinos, Mochas, EVER!
"Hola Chicas, ¿Cómos es usted?" Giggled Mel, she loves Spanish.
"Right, what are you girls doing tonight, Sophie?" She smiled mysteriously.
"Erm..." Being the newest member was difficult, I was new to being them, I was different.
"I'm going shopping with Brandon, then we're watching a movie at mine so I'm taken." Trisha but in. Jamie Lyn gave her a dirty look.
"I was asking Sophie." Snapped Jamie Lyn. "Well, Sophie?"
"I don't know yet, depends."
"On what?"
"Well."
By the pause Jamie Lyn gathered what I was saying and quickly shot a look at Mel.
"What about you Mel?"
"I don't know either, depends what Jay's doing. The boys aren't training tonight are they?" I shook my head as Jamie Lyn continued to drive and Mel and Trisha flicked through the latest issue of Vogue in the back of the convertible.
As we arrived at school we all climbed out of the car, out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of Derek smiling my way, Jamie Lyn looked at me. Derek was alone. She smiled knowingly and rushed the girls into the toilets and Derek came over.
"Hey Soph."
"Hey Derek," I said turning to face him, leaning against the car slightly.
"Look, I've been meaning to ask you for a while but..."
I smiled at him. "But?"
"Well, how would you like to be my girlfriend?"
Finally! My heart skipped a beat as he asked the question.
"I'd love to." That wasn't too keen was it?
"Cool, want to come over tonight, we could watch a movie?"
I nodded and he smiled walking off I head into the toilets to join the girls. Jamie Lyn was first to notice me.
"Spill missy." She said as she leant against the sinks.
Lucky for me the school bell rang just as she finished the sentence. Phew!
School flew by and as I was heading to Jamie Lyn's car to meet the girls Derek caught me.
"Soph!" I recognised his voice in an instant, stopped walking and turned round.
"Hey Derek." I smiled as he stood close.
He smiled back at me. "Want to go straight to mine now?"
"Sure," He slipped his hand into mine and we head to the car. Usually I'd be really comfortable around Derek, completely myself. But it was different now.
