Ok, so guys I took over this story from maddy toews 19, and I am hoping that I can make it into an AWESOME story, not that it wasn't already! So chapters 1-6 are the same from maddy toews 19's story, so if you read that version, you can just skip to chapter 7, if I have it up by now. Thanks! :)
Zoл POV
Before I tell you anything, you have to get one thing straight. John is not my boyfriend. He's just my best friend, who's a guy. I mean, I like him a little bit, but I'll never admit it. Wait, I just did…. Uh, moving on.
Anyway, I got up this morning and I knew it was going to be a good day. But I was wrong, I just didn't know it yet. I went into the bathroom to take a shower and get ready for school. You could say that I'm pretty, and I guess I am. I have ocean blue eyes and medium dark brown hair. My hair has natural hilights, which makes it look about 2 shades lighter. As I was putting on my make-up, I noticed that I should wear my hair a different way than usual, to draw attention. I usually wear my hair down, so it hangs a bit past my shoulders. But today felt like a good day, so I braided it instead.
I walked back into my room and I attempted to wake up Avid.
Avid is hands down my best friend, that's a girl. Like me, she is pretty. Her eyes are a dark hazel color, and she has dark, dark black hair. Every day she insists on wearing a different colored hair extension. But it must match her hoddie, or it's the end of the world. She likes to wear her hair long, almost to the beginning of her rib cage.
I absolutely love Avid, but she can be, different. Most girls want to date, and wear pretty girly things. Not Avid. She doesn't care if she dates or not, and she wears all black.
What should I wear today? I thought.
As I thought about it, it comes to me.
I'll wear my red, white, and yellow Nike hightops, my skinny jeans, and my tight fitting Blackhawks shirt.
Some people might say I have a sexy figure, and I embrace it. I wear things that show off my curves, and guys tend to notice, especially John.
When you first look at me, you may think I'm a girly-girl, but I'm far from one. I love sports, and my favorite sport of all is hockey. I LOVE hockey. And, it just so happens that John's dad is Jonathan Toews, the captain of the Blackhawks, my favorite hockey team ever.
When I am dressed and ready to get going for school, I make one last attempt to wake up Avid. To my surprise, I actually got her up.
"Avid! Avid wake up!" I said. "We are going to be late for school, again, if you don't get up now!"
The thing is, John, Avid and I made a promise. We will only go to school if everyone is ready. We walk together every day with no excuses. We usually get there on time, but if we are late, it's 'cause of Avid.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm up" Avid said sleepily.
"OK, now hurry so we're not late."
I left her to get ready and headed downstairs.
My mom was sitting in the living room, reading a book. My mom's name is Mary. She has straight blonde hair and brown eyes, but otherwise, she looks like me.
"Are you guys almost ready to leave?" asked my mom.
"Yes, we're waiting on Avid. Has John called yet?"
"Yes, he called your cell phone."
"K, thanks!"
I went over to my backpack and took my phone out. It said John had called. I dialed his number and waited.
After a moment of waiting, he picked up.
"Hello?"
"Hey John. It's me Zoл."
"Oh, hey. Are you guys ready yet?"
"I am, but I'm-"
"Still waiting for Avid?"
"Yeah. She should be done soon though."
"Good."
There was a slight pause was we ran out of things to say.
"Um, hey Zoл?"
"Yeah?" I replied, my heart skipping a beat.
He better ask me out already! I thought.
"Do you think you would want to-"
Then the line went dead.
"Great! Right when he was going to ask me out too!"
"Who asked you out?" said Avid as she came down the stairs. Today she was wearing her red hair extension and hoodie. "Did John finally ask you out?"
"No," I said sadly. "I think he was going to, but the line cut off before he could!"
"Aww… too bad. Let's get to school so we don't get expelled, again."
Oh, there's one other thing you should know. John, Avid and I have never been able to stay in one school for a full school year. Everything is fine until some bizarre thing happens, and it gets blamed on us, and we get expelled.
"OK, lets go," I said as we headed out the door.
John POV
Before I tell you anything, you have to understand this: Zoл is not my girlfriend. I may want her to be, but she's not, at least yet.
I woke up this morning and had a different feeling about today. Not necessarily a good feeling, but definitely a different one.
I got up and took a shower.
When I got out I put on my normal outfit which is jeans, my Nikes and my dad's shirt.
When I say my dad's shirt, I mean he is a famous hockey player on the Chicago Blackhawks, and I have a shirt with his name and number on the back.
My name is Jonathan Toews Jr., and my dad is the original Jonathan Toews. Anyway, when I was ready to go to school, I called Zoл. I had to ask her something, and we needed to get to school.
I picked up my cell phone and dialed Zoл's number. No answer.
"Crap," I said.
I decided to go into the kitchen to eat some breakfast. My dad was sitting at the kitchen table, eating a waffle.
"Hey dad," I said. "Nice game last night."
My dad has short, messy brown hair and brown eyes. He always looks on the bright side of things and can always make you laugh.
"Morning bud. Thanks. You had a great game too."
Like my dad, I'm sporty, and I play hockey, so we usually can find something to talk about.
"Thanks dad. Are there more waffles?"
"Yes, they are in the fridge."
I sat down and started eating my waffles when my cell rang. It was Zoл.
This is it, I thought. This is my shot.
"Hello?" I said.
"Hey John. Its me Zoл." She answered.
"Oh hey. Are you guys ready yet?"
Great, I thought. I meant to ask her out first. Crap!
Her melodic voice replied, "I am, but I'm-"
"Still waiting for Avid?" I broke in.
"Yeah. She should be done soon, though."
There was a moment of silence.
This is my chance! I thought excitedly.
"Um, hey Zoл?"
God that sounded stupid! I thought.
"Yeah?" she answered sounding a bit excited.
That's a good sign! I thought.
"Do you think you would want to-"
Then, of course, my phone had to run out of charge, right at that moment. That really pissed me off.
"Seriously? This thing had a full battery a moment ago!"
Oh well, I thought. Maybe we weren't meant to be together.
Then, I laughed at the stupid thought.
Avid POV
Now, you might think I'm Goth or whatever with what Zoл said, but I'm not. I'm very energetic, and I always look on the bright side of things.
Zoл and I headed out the door to go get John and get to school.
I could tell Zoл was upset about something, but I don't get into these things because I just make things worse. A lot worse.
John was waiting outside his house for us.
John had messy blonde hair that was cut short, like his dad. His eyes were a stormy gray color, that surprise people that just meet him. John was taller than both me and Zoл, but its no surprise when him and his dad play hockey.
"About time you two," said John, with a sad glance towards Zoл.
What's going on? I asked myself.
"Hey, Avid is the one who took forever," Zoл replied.
" It takes time to look this good," I said admiring myself.
"Yeah, well you don't look half as good as Zoл, Avid." Said John with a nervous glance in Zoл's direction.
"Aww… John, you're so sweet!" Zoл said.
Something is going on between them, I thought to myself.
"OK, um… we better get to school," I said, rather awkwardly.
"Uh, yea. Let's go," said Zoл coming out of her trance.
So, we all left and headed for our last day of school, but we didn't know it yet.
I don't remember much from that day.
I remember Dave pissed me off, and the John and Zoл came to calm me down. But when they touched me, the whole classroom exploded.
Then, for about the 10th time, we were expelled from another school.
Later that day, we just stood under the big oak tree that sits outside the school, and thought.
After a moment of thinking John said, "Let's go celebrate!"
Zoл and I couldn't think of anything better to do, so we agreed.
As we were eating, Zoл and John decided to start flirting. I didn't really care at first, but they kept at it for a while.
Finally, I snapped.
"Can you guys stop flirting?" I asked, pretty pissed off. "I feel like a third wheel!"
"Avid, we aren't flirting. Just calm down!" Zoл said with a faint flush in her cheeks.
"Yes because, 'Your pretty good at blowing stuff up' and replying, 'I couldn't have done much better than you,' isn't flirting?" I said nonchalantly sipping my shake. Yes, I used a big word.
I got them, I thought.
"Avid," John started. "I'm sorry. We didn't mean to make you feel-"
"What the [insert curse word] is that?" broke in Zoл, clearly alarmed.
John and I turned around to see what she was talking about.
I was glad that I knew my mythology, because I knew what the monsters were right away.
Coming right at us was a basilisk, three hellhounds, and a pair of emposa.
Then, we did the most heroic thing ever: we ran.
Please review! I want to know what you think! Should I write more? Please be nice
