Julie walked down her street and went into her mom's shop Gladrags. "Hi mom," she said quickly. Julie ran upstairs into her room. She threw her leather shoulder bag on to her desk and got dressed into her Jags uniform. Grabbing her orange basketball bag, she hopped on her bike and rode to her school.
At the school, she and her team gathered around their coach. "Alright team, the new season is about start. In that case, we need to warm up. Everyone get with a partner and do some one-on-one." Everyone got with a partner, but no one choose Julie. "Hey Julie," T.J. went up to her "Haven't seen you in a while." He smiled. That smile, Julie thought. What did I just think?! "Wanna partner up?" "Sure."
They walked over to an unoccupied hoop. As they played. T.J. noticed Julie wasn;t on her game. "What's wrong, Jules?" he questioned, stopping the ball. She thought for a minute. "Alright, I guess I can tell you. Ivy and I got in a fight last month and hasn't talked to me since." T.J. didn't really know what to say, so he just said oh and passed her the ball. She stared at it for na minute and passed it back. " No, I don't wanna play anymore." T.J. put it down. "Alright, then let's not. Let's leave." Julie looked at him. "Leave? Just cut practice?" "Yea. We'll just get past coach." They snuk out of the gym and got changed into their clothes into the locker. When they met up in the hallway, T.J. asked Julie "What do you wanna do?" "We clud go to that new dinner, JB'S." He nodded "Sounds good."
When they got done eating, talking, and laughing, it was already sunset. T.J. walked Julie home. At the door, Julie turned to T.J. . " Thanks T.J. I really enjoyed myself." She put a piece of her long blonde hair behind her ear. That hair, T.J. thought. "You're welcome. I did too." They stood there for a minute and then T.J. leaned in and kissed Julie by suprise. It wasn't a bad kiss, very innocent. When they pulled away, T.J. said goodnight and walked home. Julie stayed at the door and smiled. T.J. kissed me. Let's let that sink in. Julie sighed. She went in and looked at the calender and circled the date. March 13th, 1982. She went and got in her pjs. Pjs, T.J. , she thought. She snuggled in bed at 10:00. Tomorrow, I'll talk to T.J. and see why he kissed me. Tomorrow.
