Heyy guys!!! I felt like being nice so here is a new chappie for my new story!!!

~laffinalot~

Running was a new thing for me.

Everyone, everyone knew I hated to run.

Even if my life depended on it.

But now, I didn't care.

I ran like a demon from hell was chasing me.

Running like this was exhilarating.

Almost fun.

Key word: almost

The major problem was my purse.

It kept going EVERYWHERE.

Swinging left, then right.

But finally, I was there.

I had made it to the coffee place quicker than I expected.

I slowed down to a casual walk and tried to fix the mess I called my hair.

I'm sure I looked a hot mess when I just wanted to look hot.

I opened the shop door and the little dinging bell went off.

I glanced around the place.

Only a couple people here tonight.

An old couple sitting in the corner, silently bickering about coffee types.

A teenage girl sitting in the middle of a big booth with a big purse to match.

A old man half-asleep over his....

Whoa! Wait up...

Teenage girl...

plus...

a big booth...

equals...

a party!!!

Ehmagawd!

I froze right in front of the door.

No. Effing. Way.

There was absolutely no way boys were seeing me looking like this.

I recovered from my temporary paralysis and dropped my bag on the corner booth, my favorite.

I took a deep breath and timidly walked up to the girl in the big booth.

"Um, excuse me? Do you have a mirror I can borrow?" I asked. I widened my brown eyes to show I meant no harm to her.

"Oh! Sure! Hold on a sec..." the girl said, going through her purse.

I silently rated the girl in my head.

Even with the glasses, the girl was a total ten.

Her wavy brown hair was gorgeous and fell just below her shoulders.

I could see that her skirt was cut by herself but it was cute and toe-dally heartfelt DIY.

Her shirt was one that you would see plastered all over magazines and modeled by everyone. It was deep, rich dark blue and it fit her well. Toe-dally ah-dorable.

"Aha! Found it! Here ya go." She said, a genuine smile on her face. She handed me that mirror and I raised it up.

I gasped.

I looked hideous!

My mascara had gone over my cheeks and made me look like Queen Panda of the Jungle Forest.

I scoffed at my reflection and took a tissue out of my purse. I wiped under my eyes and then tossed the tissue.

I took my hair from the bun and shook it.

It fell down my back in curly waves. I fluffed it and then checked my reflection one last time.

Other than the Bloodshot Eyes of Horror, I looked okay.

"Thanks... um, sorry what was your name?" I said. I handed her back the mirror and she stuffed it back into her purse.

"My name is Maddie. Nice to meet you." She stuck out her hand and I shook it. "I think I've seen you here before. For the talent night?"

"Oh yeah!" I exclaimed. Once a month, the DJ, who came on the weekends, threw a talent contest and whoever won got this awesome gift card and a surprise gift.

"You won last time, didn't you?" Maddie asked.

I looked down at my feet and blushed.

"Yeah. I was the dancer?" I said.

"Oh right! I think they said your name was...um..." Her forehead was furrowed in concentration. "They said your name was...Allie Rivera?"

"Close but it's really Alicia, not Allie. But...you can call me Leesh." I said. I knew giving her Massie's nickname for me was big, like I was betraying her.

But I didn't care.

"Okay. Leesh." She said, giving me a wide smile.

"Hey Maddie, are they here yet?" a male voice called out.

I almost dropped my jaw in shock.

The hottest male specimen, well probably, was standing in right front of me.

Please don't be her boyfriend, please, please, please... I silently pleaded with the Love Gods.

"Oh! Hey Cody. Um, Cody this is my new friend, Alicia. Alicia, this is my brother, Cody."

I sighed in relief.

Her brother.

Thank Gawd.

"Oh. Alicia. Okay. So Maddie, when are they coming?" Cody said.

His voice was as smooth as silk.

I could be wrapped in it all day.

EHMAGAWD!?!?!?

Did I really just think that?

Reviews would be loved!!!
