Three's a Crowd
Note: there's some harsh language in here because Brad's in his last year and older kids tend to swear more… also, I don't know if all the facts are straight because I don't know everything there is to know about the show! Sorry if something's wrong!!!
As Brad wandered down the hallway on his spare, he wondered about semi-formal next month. For the past two years he'd gone to the dressed-up event with blond bimbos, which wasn't so bad, because then he wouldn't have to talk much to them and they were always really hot. He whistled through his teeth and wondered vaguely where his friends were. Spence and Travis were probably in the gym shooting hoops, Jenny and Derek were probably out in their car, making out, and Terry was probably up on the hill with the rest of the druggies, smokin' up. He sighed. Life was very boring and he still couldn't think of anyone to bring to semi. As he passed the office, he caught sight of a flash of blond hair and stopped, backing up a few steps to check the girl out. She was petite with shoulder length blond hair and a green messenger bag slung across a shoulder.
As she turned, he caught sight of piercing green eyes and lips that naturally curved into a smile. She caught sight of him staring and held his gaze for a second before blushing and looking away.
When she got to the door, he flashed his best smile. "Hi. I'm Brad Taylor. Need a guide for the school?"
She shook her head, her lips curving even more upward into a real smile. "No, I had the guided tour last week from the vice principal but thanks for the offer anyway, Brad Taylor. See you around."
"See you," he repeated, watching her walk away down the hall. "Holy shit."
"What's up my man?" Spencer Karn asked, knocking into Brad as he stood outside the cafeteria. "You look like you just got hit by a fuckin' transport."
"Hell yeah. You heard of the new girl?" It was three days later and he still hadn't talked to her. She always seemed to just slip out of his grasp.
"What new girl?" Spence leaned up against the wall and stuck out his foot to trip a freshman.
"Small, blond hair, green eyes, killer smile, body to die for…" Brad said. He almost sighed in contentment but caught himself just in time.
"Oh, yeah, Nicole Smith. She's decent. But you do know she's your brother's age, right?"
"What?" Brad turned his head sharply to stare at Spence's expressionless face.
"Yeah, Randy's age. Still hot though. Not that bad. So, you found a date for semi yet?"
"Nah, not yet." He ran a hand through his blond hair and rubbed the back of his neck absentmindedly.
"Fuck, man, I know a hundred girls that would kill to go with you. Just pick up some skank and take her. You'll enjoy it, I promise."
"It's my last year though, Spence. I want to go with someone other than some blond bimbo skank that's already been around the whole school…"
"Yeah, I guess… so what're you going to do? Go for this new girl? Nicole Smith?"
Brad shrugged, a smile playing on his lips. "Maybe. So tell the guys to stay the hell away from her. Got me?"
Spence nodded. "Don't worry. Nobody but nobody would mess with your territory…how you gonna get her, though? She's always surrounded by new friends that just want to be her friend to either get some or be cool by hangin' with her."
"I'm going to get some inside info…" He grinned wickedly.
