Robbie POV
It's been a few weeks since I kissed her. Cat Valentine, the most beautiful and wonderfully amazing girl in the world. I guess it's pretty obvious that I like her, and I KISSED HER for goodness sake, but she still doesn't look at me. She's never brought it up once and treats me the same way as she did before. It's like she's completely forgotten, or just wrote it off as unimportant.
What have I ever done to deserve this? Okay, I'll admit, I'm not the coolest guy in the world, not even close. But she should at least acknowledge my feelings, right? Tell me how she feels. But, I guess running away was her answer. She just ran away, and took my heart with her.
I think I'm slowly getting it back, but it still hurts seeing her everyday at school, knowing she'll never see me as more than a friend. At least the kiss didn't mess up our friendship, I should be grateful for that at least.
"Robbie!"
Speak of the devil.
Cat came running up to me, wearing a cute white dress with flowery designs all over it, her red velvet hair falling over her shoulders as she looked up to me and smiled.
"Class is about to start! C'mon, we have to hurry!" She said as she grabbed my hand, practically dragging me to Sikowitz's class. Her hands are so small and soft, I can't help but feel myself blush a little.
We made it just in time, right as the bells chimed signaling for class to start. There were only two seats open, right in the front, and they were right next to each other. Today must be my lucky day!
"Alright, CLASS!" Sikowitz sauntered to the stage, coconut in hand, and dramatically turned to face his students. "Let us begin! I want you to… pair up! Once you have your partner, I will hand you a script, and you will perform it for the class in exactly one week. GO!"
He immediately sat down on the chair behind him and began sipping the coconut in his hand, eyeing his students intently.
I turn to Cat. "So… want to be my partner?"
"Okay!" She beamed at me. "I'll tell Sikowitz!"
She jumped up, and walked up to Sikowitz, where he grabbed two scripts from the top of pile next to him and handed it to her. She started to read it as she came back towards our seats, her brow furrowed in confusion.
"What's it about?" I ask, as she hands me my script. She doesn't answer as we both skim through the pages. Wow. So apparently I'm a businessman who cheats on his wife (Cat), and after she finds out she poisons him, then strangles him until he dies. Dark stuff. This is much better suited for Jade.
I look up to see what Cat thinks of the whole thing, and she's smiling at me.
"I never get to do anything like this! This will be fun!" She giggled. What a funny girl.
We start practicing our lines but class goes by quickly, and the bell chimes once more. Everyone turns to pick up their backpacks to go to their second class of the day, hustling out the door.
"Hey Cat," she's still next to me and turns around. "Do you want to practice more after school? We can drive to my place, and maybe grab some ice cream on the way."
She gasps. "Thank you, Robbie! That sounds wonderful!" She giggles. "I'll see you at lunch!" She turns and waves goodbye.
Needless to say, the rest of the day was uneventful. It wasn't until lunch that things got interesting. After I got my burrito from the Grub Truck, I made my way to our usual table to see Tori and Jade fighting. Again.
"It's not funny!" Tori groaned.
"Oh, yes it is." Jade was grinning from ear to ear.
"What's going on?" I asked as I set my food down next to Andre.
"Well, the lovebirds here," Jade motioned to Tori and Beck, "got a script in Sikowitz with two male roles. So Beck is now dating a man-child."
"I am not a man-child!" Tori snapped at her.
"C'mon, guys, settle down." Poor Beck. Having to deal with his ex and his current girlfriend on a daily basis must be exhausting.
"At least Andre and I have roles that fit our gender." Jade mumbled. More to herself than anything else, but it was still loud enough to make Tori upset.
Apparently Jade and Andre are playing a down-on-his-luck fisherman and his nagging wife. Thankfully Cat showed up before Jade and Tori could start fighting again, but by then we were just talking about homework for classes.
After lunch the minutes inched by, and I was so anxious during my last class that when the bell rang, I practically flew out the door to meet Cat at her locker. It was a few minutes before I saw her make her way towards me. I waved and she smiled, skipping over to me.
"Hey Cat. You ready?"
"Just a minute, let me get something out of my locker!"
She opened her backpack and arranged her books, pulling some out and putting some in. After she zipped up her bag, she slammed her locker shut and linked her arm in mine.
"Ready!" She chirped.
As we made our way to the parking lot, she hummed a tune and its melody made its way to my ears, making me grin.
Today is gonna be a good day.
