THANKS FOR ALL THE REVIEWS! AND FAVS! AND FOLLOWS! :) Didn't expect to get more than 5 so... yeah, happy person coming through here.
I'll be going outstation later for quite a while, so I thought of posting chapter 1 before I leave. So... here it is! P.s. this chapter is probably a little bit boring. My bad. REmember to review?
Chapter 1
Katie's P.o.v.
The news spread like wildfire throughout Goode High. It seems like everyone that was there when the game was announced yesterday has told practically the whole school.
Katie was pretending to be confident and happy when her friends said they'll be betting for her to win, but truth be told, she was nervous. She didn't knew the news would spread so fast and she hasn't told Daniel, her real boyfriend yet! What if he breaks up with her because she didn't tell him yesterday about the game?
It was kinda her fault that no one knows she has a boyfriend. She told Daniel to keep their relationship secret, even from their friends. So, She can't exactly blame Selena and Piper for coming up with a game that would maybe hurt her relationship with Daniel.
Katie saw Daniel alone at his locker. He has dirty blond hair that matched with his Amber colored eyes. He was lean and a little bit muscular as he plays for the swimming team like Percy. He wore a plain yellow T-shirt that has the words I am limited edition and a ripped patterned jeans. To Katie, he is limited edition - He's sweet, and kind, and sporty- oh shut up.
Katie tried to muster up the courage to tell him about the 'trying to make the other person like you' game, as she had named it.
Don't doubt him Katie. He'll understand. Just go to him and pretend that you don't know the news has spread and tell him about the games! Easy as ABC. She thought to herself.
What if he breaks up with me? Her other side thought.
Nah, he won't . I think.
And before she can think twice, her legs moved towards Daniel.
She tapped his shoulder. And when he turned back, Travis just decided to pop into the picture.
" HEY! DANIEL! " Travis skipped to them cheerfully.
" Hey Travis! Anything? You came the same time Katie here did. " Said Daniel, smiling to Katie then to Travis.
Katie tried using some sign languages to Travis to tell him to shut up. But, unfortunately, he either didn't get the message, or he decided to ignore her.
" Yeah, did you hear about the 'final showdown' game between me and Katie-kat? "
Daniel look confused, then turned to Katie who face-palmed.
" Nope. What is it? Chess again? "
" More fun than that. Anyway, Everyone knows I'm better at chess than Katie-kat here. I-"
" YOU ONLY BEAT ME ONCE IN CHESS. THE REST WERE STALEMATES. "Katie interrupted.
" -ts the dating game! " said Travis cheerfully, ignoring more sign languages Katie was giving, and continued on. " The rules of the game is simple, while following a slip of paper of 'what to do's' , do some tricks to make the opposite love you. And the person who falls in love first, loses. Easy right?"
Daniel looked at Katie, who smiled an apologetic and nervous smile at him. Then he turned back to Travis and smiled too.
" Well, I sure hope Katie wins then. " He said, then Katie looked up. " I mean, It'll be so fun seeing you in LOVE Travis! "
" Hey! " Travis fake pouted. Then turned around as Connor called him over. " I gotta go, see you at lunch Daniel! "
And he went away. Katie added Travis' bad timing onto her imaginary list of why she will never love him.
" Hey, why didn't you tell me? " Daniel asked her. Katie tried to decipher the look in his eyes. Is he feeling hurt? Jealous? Angry? But she couldn't.
" I was about to. Until that idiot popped in. " Grumbled Katie.
" Hey, this won't disturb our relationship right? I'm betting for you to win this Katie. " He said, smiling. And Katie was feeling like the luckiest person on earth to have such an understanding boyfriend.
And she hugged him and gave him a peck on the cheeks.
" I was so worried you would take this the wrong way Daniel! "
" Well, you need to have more trust in me then . "
" So, no hard feelings? "
" Nope. See you at lunch later? Usual place. "
" Sure! "
When he left, Katie felt relieved.
Told you Katie. You were just worrying for no reason.
" Sooooooooo, when are you guys gonna start the game? " Percy asked Katie and Travis who were sitting together on the lunch table.
" Yeah, when? " Selena asked, excitement clear in her eyes.
" Today? " Travis replied, but it came out more like a question.
" It would be so awkward. " Katie muttered to herself.
" We planned to go for Ice-cream after school. " Travis said while eating his hamburger.
" You mean, YOU planned to go for Ice-cream with me after school. You didn't even ask me! "
" Well, I'm supposed to be your boyfriend, so I decide, right? "
Katie noticed that Daniel looked a little hurt when he said that and decided to ... erm... defend him?
" YOU ARE NOT MY BOYFRIEND! I would feel so sorry for the person who actually falls in love with you. "
" We're supposed to date, so you're supposed to 'fall in love' with me. In case you forgotten,it's written on the slip of paper! So, yeah, you're basically feeling sorry for yourself. "
Katie just sighed in frustration and defeat and took a big bite out of her hot dog. She muttered something like, " I am.."
" You guys are off to a bad start. " Annabeth noticed .
" You're stating the obvious Wise girl. " Percy said cheekily.
" Whatever! " came the reply and she nudged him playfully.
Percy and Annabeth started dating a few months back when Percy accidentally leaked out that he loves her when fighting with her. Irony much?
" Kitttttyy cat ~! " sang Travis cheerfully while heading down to her direction.
" What? " Katie asked while locking her locker.
" School's over."
" Uh huh. Point? "
" Ice-cream. "
" Oh. "
" Maybe I should call you forgetful lil' kitty. "
" That's the worst name you came up with. "
" Okay, that's your new name. "
" Hey! " Katie exclaimed while Travis was slowly walking out of the school.
" You coming? "
" Fine. " She said while walking out of the school too.
Katie decided to really try to play this game, no matter how awkward it is. The faster this game ends, the better. And her boyfriend is being patient and understanding with her. What more can she ask for? She tried to flirt with Travis. But It kinda ended badly.
" So, what's your hobby? " She asked Travis while trying to bat her eyelashes. Remember, TRYING.
" Er... Katie, what's wrong with your eyes? "
" What's wrong with my eyes?! " She asked, a little too loudly cause she was a little shocked by his reply. Don't all girls in movies use this way to flirt?
" Your eyes look like a mosquito went in and kept twitching ."
After that, Katie stop 'batting' her eyelashes.
The walk with Travis to the ice-cream shop seemed like a thousand years.
He kept talking nonsense that Katie just tuned out.
When they finally reached the ice-cream shop, Travis bought a green tea plus chocolate plus corn flavored ice-cream, saying it tastes nice, and bought one for Katie too.
Katie didn't dare to eat it. I mean, who eats green tea, chocolate and corn flavored ice-creams together? yucks.
So, she just stared at it while Travis was licking his. After a while, Travis decided to start a conversation.
" You know, Ice-creams are meant for eating. "
" I know that. "
" Not for admiring."
" I know that too."
" Well, then why are you staring at the ice-cream I just bought for you?"
" It looks disgusting ."
" Looks can be deceiving. Just lick it."
Katie rolled her eyes and licked a drop that was about to fall. And to her amazement, it's quite good. Unfortunately, for some reason, after she licked the ice-cream, the whole thing fell on travis' shoes.
" THE SHOES WERE NEW! " He mocked anger.
" erm... Sorry? "
He didn't reply, instead, he 'accidentally' dropped his ice-cream on Katie's shoes while grinning.
" Apology accepted. "
"TRAVIS? " Katie's face was turning a little bit red in anger. She apparently isn't mocking anger. She WAS angry.
" Y-yes? " His voice came out more like a squeak .
" You're SO dead. "
With that said, Travis got up on his feet and ran while being chased by an angry Katie Gardner.
Told you guys this chapter is boring. My bad, needed to write about her real bf and how their simple 'date' went wrong. The next chapter would probably be more interesting. Will post a new chapter when I come back from Taiwan. YAY!
