I'm such a dork! Right after I finished the previous chapter I got started on this one... haha! It's on Nate's side this time!! Hope you like it!! Also review!!
NATE'S SIDE of the STORY!!
Man. That girl is nuts. I've never met any one like her! Usually they all think I'm cool, but she's different. Way different. She's kind of cute too, with her temper and all, I mean if not for her character she'd be like any other girl. I know there has got to be some way where I can at least be in the same room as her and not have to feel like I have to run out of her wrath. Sheesh. Well I guess now I have to go find my class rooms. They did give me a map and schedule so I'm not that desperate, I just kind of wanted to look around – with her. Nate! Cut it out! She hates your guts remember?! And why should I like her anyways? She hasn't done anything to make want to get to know her – except the way she's different.
I got through my day at school, not seeing her again, just a bunch of random girls in my classes talking to me, not single guy either, so I went straight home. Even though I got tons of offers to go hang with some crowds (need I mention invites from girls – again) I thought it would be better just settle at home for a little while.
"Hi mom!" I said pleasantly.
"Hey Nate, how was your day?" she asked me.
"Interesting. . ." I replied, but Shanes was sitting on the couch listening and got interested.
"Interesting how?" He asked me.
"Well everything was going fine till this girl, I think her name's Avenue, just decided she hated my guts the moment she saw me! I mean I get up to introduce myself and there she is, staring at me with those eyes of hers! I messed up and everything, I couldn't help it, and then she made fun of me in front of everybody!" I was so confused.
"Aw, sounds like love!" Shane said teasingly.
"No way man, it can't be!" I said.
"Think about it, she has those eyes that pull you in right?"
"Yeah I couldn't stop staring at her when I got up in front of the class."
"Uh-huh! And you messed up you said?"
"Um yeah, I said we're from New Jersey then went 'Go Giants!' It was really embarrassing. And after I said that, she's all like 'what a weirdo!' so the teacher yelled at her and she had to help me with finding my classes, except I said something that made her even more upset and she ditched me." I was rambling now.
"Nate face it! You're in love and you don't know how to handle it!" I blushed. Whoa. I was not in love, and I certainly don't blush over girls.
"Shane, I don't get it."
"Girls are hard to understand at first, but the only way to win her over is let her know that your interested, tell her if she's willing, that you'd like to get to know her. You'll catch on, but in the mean time just try to win her over."
"You should be happy your out of school and aren't in college yet."
"I am. Now go!" Go where? I had hardly any homework because it was my first day. I walked up the stairs to my room. Right out my window was a Billboard of "The Jonas Brothers". She was right. I was full of myself. I had to show her that I wasn't though. – All night I thought of her. And ways to get her.
AVENUE'S SIDE of the STORY
I walked into the office. My dad was there behind his desk, shouting at some guy in the phone.
"Hi dad." I said to him, I smiled too, but he didn't bother to look in my direction. That's okay, he's busy. I walked into the back of the office and saw Frank, dad's employee making copies and drinking coffee. "Hey Frank!" I said.
"Hey Avenue, how was school?" Frank asked.
"Not so good, stupid guy who said stupid things."
"You want to talk about it?"
"No, not really, need any help?"
"Okay sure, how about you finish with the copies, and file the originals."
"Sure thing."
"Oh and could you make some more coffee?" he asked with a smile.
"Sure Mr. Caffeine." I said grinning back. I busily got to work and after an hour Frank came back. "I copied, filed, and made coffee, just the way you like it – black."
"Ha ha. Very funny."
"Just kidding, two creams, two sugars. I even taste tested it for you, pretty sweet."
"Don't get any ideas, you know how addicted I am to that stuff." I laughed. He was too addicted, he had coffee all the time, and got headaches if he didn't have it on a regular basis.
"Yeah I know."
"You know if you're looking for a job, and I'm not here, you should totally take mine." My smile faded.
"Now that's funny, I'm sure that's the first thing my dad has on his mind, hire his daughter."
"Oh come on, he ought to hire you, you know how to run his business better than he does, I've showed you everything I know and more. I've learned a lot, and one of them is that life travels fast, and you'd better hop on the train before it's to late."
"Where'd you get that?"
"Some guy named Mr. Wu, story about a grandfather who wished he could have been there for his son and grandchildren. Section seventy –"
"Three, Children's Fiction, I know."
"See? Perfect for the job."
"I'll think about it." I kept on working till night and dad drove me home. No one talked. He had some more business calls to attend too…
The next day at school. I walked into home room and again saw the same thing as before. All the girls surrounding "Mr. Joke" I sat down in my seat. Wow I was way early. Ten minutes till class started. I really didn't have anything to do and Parker's mom called and said she was sick. I was on my own for now. Or maybe not… I was kind of just sitting there when all of a sudden this guy walks up to my desk. Guess who? None other then Nate Jonas.
"What do want?" I asked annoyed. He put his hands on the desk in front of me and leaned in.
"Look," he whispered, "I'm sorry if we got off on the wrong hand. I didn't mean to offend you. You're right I am a rich kid who face is all over the place."
"You got that right."
"But if you give me another chance, I'd like to get to know you better." He continued. Wow. I pushed him back, because his face was real close to mine, not to mention his body since the desk is not that big.
"Yeah, I don't think so. One of the reasons why I can't stand you is that you think you deserve it all. Well not me. I deserve someone better. And until you can show me that you're not loving the attention, and stop stealing what's mine, then, maybe we can talk." I said pealing his fingers off my desk.
NATE'S SIDE of the STORY
Ouch. That hurt. Gosh I hate Shane. I left the class for two seconds to call him.
"Hey Nate, what's up?" Shane asked.
"What's up is I'm never taking your advice again!"
"Why what happened?"
"She totally thought I was being self centered while hitting on her."
"Oh. Well it worked with Kat."
"Dude! Kat liked you back!"
"True, I'm sorry dude."
"Well sorry isn't going to cut it, if she hated me yesterday she must want to kill me today. What was I thinking taking advice from you?"
"Maybe you should try Jason instead?"
"Maybe." And I hung up on him. I walked back into the class room and was totally annoyed with what I saw. Some guy had come up to Avenue and started flirting with her, she flipped her hair, and smiled. She looked totally cute. Ugh. I hate myself for falling for someone who I can't even talk too. Just then this girl named Brenda came over.
"Hi Nate! I saw what happened! It's too bad, but maybe you should go for someone who really wants you." She clung on my arm.
"Thanks Brenda, but its okay, I can always try again." Her face fell when I said that. But I'm not sorry. I intended to try again. With or without Jason's help I wasn't going to mess up. Again.
AVENUE'S SIDE of the STORY
Nate left out to the hall way pulling out his cell phone. Whatever, I really didn't care about him anymore. Just then this guy Carter came up to me.
"Hey, I saw what you did, it was awesome." He said to me.
"Really? I mean no big deal, I didn't want to hang out with him." I said back, still in my annoyed mood.
"Well if he's bothering you or something call me." He gave me his phone number. Great. "Maybe we can hang out some time." Sure, yeah, whatever. But then I noticed Nate coming back in and decided to play a little. (okay sorry, something is really messed up with my computer and I'm trying to deal with it, but it's a little weird and I had to change my story around… so the next chapter is what she's going to do, but I think you can guess….hope you still like it!!)..
