Chapter 2:
Ann walked down the stairs to Logan's room. His room was on the bottom floor of the same building she was in, but she had never been to his room…alone. She could feel flutters in her stomach, and hesitated before knocking on his door. To her surprise the door almost swung open and standing there was Logan himself; smiling. Ann couldn't help but return the smile.
"C'mon in." the attractive boy in the doorway told her. The blonde smiled and nodded her head. "Want some popcorn?" He asked, closing the door behind her.
"Umm… sure if ya got any." Ann replied turning around to face him.
"Of course I do." He told her with a wink, and pointed to the futon. "Take a seat. It'll only take a few minutes."
As Ann was snuggling up to the new man in her life, things weren't going so well for Rachael and her's across campus.
"Why must you always twist everything I say?" Rachael yelled at the man.
"Twist? I only repeat how it sounds, Rachael." Cameron replied stepping towards her some. "But quiet down, there's no reason to scream."
"I don't sound mean, rude, or inconsiderate like you always make my 'demands' seem. I just want you to actually make some time and act like you care."
"That wasn't time under the bleacher's last Friday?"
Rachael rolled her eyes, "Yea, time when you were getting a little something. We can't even go to the movies anymore."
"That's not my fault. You're the one who gets to loud."
"How can you not see the point I'm making?"
"Because I already know that you like it. Otherwise you wouldn't always come back for more." Cameron told her. "What more is there?"
Rachael looked at him quizzically. Could he really have just asked that? A light sigh escaped her lips, as she thought, he wasn't it. "I think we're done, Cam."
"What? Done? Just like that? Now that you've had your way, you're just going to flit over to some other guy?"
"There's nothing left to us. You just stated that"
"So who's next, Bitch? Jason, he your new hero?"
"Eww. No, he's totally not my type, Asshole. And neither are you. Goodbye." She told him, shutting the door on his face. Outside she took a deep breath of fresh air before taking the first couple steps to her Chevy. It took her a few minutes to feel the tears on her face that had fallen from hazel green eyes.
Ann gently shut the door behind her, not wanting to wake anyone up at the early hour of 4 in the morning. She quickly began walking down the hall, until that is she was stopped in her tracks from running into a solid form. And no it wasn't a door,
"Ann, what are you doing up this early?" Jason asked.
Ann tucked a blonde strand of hair behind her ear, as a light blush light her cheeks. Her light blue eyes meet his brown ones. At that moment she swore she couldn't breathe, but that had to be nerves from being caught not on her floor at an odd hour by someone she knew.
"I…was just going back to bed."
He looked amused, "On the first floor?"
Her blush deepened, "No, not here."
"Well, have a good rest of your night." He told her as he slipped past her. "Oh and I'm having a game night tonight if Rachael and you want to come by."
"Oh ok sure." Ann told him before continuing down the hall and up the stairs.
When Ann finally got to her room she took a quick breath before carefully unlocking the door and opening it slowly. As she began to change from her new pair of jeans and pink tank that had a v-neck black shirt over, she heard a sniffle. Her head popped up and she turned to look over to Rachael's bed to find a book and small light in the girls hands.
"Oh, Rachael, I didn't realize you were up. You ok?"
Rachael moved the book to look at Ann, "I'll be fine. Just disappointed."
"Oh, dear I'm sorry that it didn't work out between you and Cam. You seemed to have come to terms with it already earlier though. What did he do?" Ann asked as she stepped over to the other side of the room.
"It's not him. She was not suppose to be with him. The whole story is ruined! Who's suppose to be with Andy? He can't just die." She replied holding up the book again. "And Ann?"
"Oh, but yes?" Ann answered surprised and slightly confused. Rachael was reading what looked like a romance novel. Not one Ann herself had read. The two had slightly different tastes.
"I love you, dear, but can you please get some pants on again." Rachael told her smiling.
"Oh." Ann replied with a laugh and headed back to her closet. "Right, I'll get on that. Oh and Jason said he's having a game night tonight that we could go to."
"Wait, I thought you were with Logan, not Jason."
"I was with Logan."
"Uh-huh."
"I ran into Jason in the hall." Explained Ann with a light blush returning. "So how did things with Cameron go?"
"Well, we are officially not a couple anymore."
"Oh, well I'm sorry that's hard."
"The Goddamn Asshole called me a bitch!"
"Oh my, he's totally gonna pay for that one."
"And accused me of hooking up with Jason next?"
"Are you?" Ann asked curiously.
"No! Never! Jeez, Ann I thought you knew me better than that."
"You've never stopped when there's an attractive male before."
"No, but he's just oddly not my type. Nor is he interested, but YOU just called him attractive."
"Cause he is. In his own way."
"Coming from the girl who was just with Logan Donner!"
"Hey, I never said I was ditching one for the other. And I can still comment that men are attractive. Doesn't mean anything."
"Right, of course not." Rachael replied rolling her eyes.
"So, who's next?"
"I'm not conquering the world or making cookies, Ann."
Ann shrugged, "Usually there's just another in tow already."
