I made my way over to Lucy's science class after last period. Ice cream time! I waited outside the door for her to come out; the teacher must have had a go at her! She looked really pissed. Jared walked by with all his mates saying something about an overreaction; I looked back at the door to see Lucy speeding out the door looking almost drawn to tears.
"Hey, hey, hey! Calm it! What the hell happened in there? Did Mr. Adams have a go at you?" I said as I reached my hand out to stop her. She swung round and launched her fist at my face, but I grabbed it and pushed it out the way. "Hey no violence thanks! I don't feel like whooping your ass today okay?" and she burst into a fit of tears; running off towards the science toilets. I began to get worried as I rushed off after her; what the hell happened in there!
I stopped outside the door and put my ear to the door, crying and whimpering was all to be heard. Slowly I opened the door and tip toed in; the last thing I want is for her to feel the need to try and punch my face again...
"Lucy?" I hissed. The crying ceased and a worn out Lucy immerged from a cubical. She looked a mess! "What happened? Is this about the ice cream? I mean I know I am crafty and all but honestly! It's just an ice cream! I promise I won't get extra toppings!" I said trying to calm the situation down. Lucy giggled then burst into another fit of whimpering and tears.
"No you doughnut! It's not about the freaking ice cream!" I gave a relived 'phew' earning me a giggle from Lucy which was soon over taken by tears that now streamed down her face.
"Well what's wrong with you? Is it ash?" and as his name left my lips, a whimper left hers followed by tears and anger... ohh god! "Okay oh-okay!" I said as she began to lash out; kicking doors and hitting walls, which made her yelp. Making her angrier by the second! I got scared and made an escape to a cubical. After about 2 minutes the anger ceased and crying was all that was to be heard.
"Lucy? Are you ready to tell me what happened?" asked as I opened the door.
"He, he, he did it for a bet..." she said through her hands that where smothered on her face as she bent over the sink.
"What?" I questioned. I couldn't believe what I was hearing! I always respected ash as a person who would took after Lucy and make her happy! I must be hearing things! The ash I new would never do such a horrific thing!
"I said 'he did it for a bet'" she said. Removing her hands from her face and standing up straight to look at me.
"How do you know?" I asked.
"I was in lesson and I took my seat next to him and I was so happy we chatted and laughed and giggled! I so believed that he cared that he was as in to me as I was him!" she said. " but then one of his class mated let it slip that he had a bet with one of his friends that he could get me, easily-" she didn't even Finnish her sentence before I stormed out the bathroom and was so very lucky to find ash walking down the corridor away from me! Thank you lord! I owe you one!
"OH! Ash!" I shouted as I speed walked in his direction. He swung his head round to look for who was shouting for him, he saw me and began to walk a little faster. Ohh guilty consonance already?
And with that I ran catching him by his arm and slung him against the wall.
"So, what's all this about a bet?" I said casually. Casual is always more treating in my opinion.
"Um-"was all he said before he tried an escape. Oh hell no I put my hand on his chest so he couldn't move.
"So how much did you bet?" I asked. Honestly interested, I just wanted to know before I beat the shit out of this guy!
"£10" he said. Wow that's low clearly he needed no encouragement... maybe I should go soft on the guy... naaahh he is such a prick anyway for accepting a bet instead of just doing it!
"Ohh quite low..." I mumbled before I slapped that smug face of his." But hey, if you mess with Lucy you're going to regret it! Girl code! Or best friend code either one! They both say just about the same!" and with that I punched the 'pretty' face of his. He lunges is fist at my face and attempts to punch me back, but fortunately a pulled it out of the way pulling it behind his back, turning it to make him face the wall. With my other hand I grabbed the back of his head and smacked it against the wall.
"hey ash?" I asked sweetly. "if you talk to Lucy, go near Lucy or even breath on her I will do a lot worse than a black eye and a slap, a broken nose and a broken arm... yeah let's just say you've been warned!" I kicked his leg hard, making him fall on the ground. With my foot I kicked him in the crotch, which made him yelp like a little pussy. "Ohh and if I was you I would keep this to yourself, I wouldn't want everyone knowing I got beat up by a girl." I walked away and mumbled ''pussy'' and walked back in the bathroom. Giggling at the thought of me actually getting beat up by a girl... oh how I make myself laugh.
"Sorted, let's go for ice cream!" I said grabbing her hand and making my way out of the bathroom. "What did you do?" she hissed.
"You will see tomorrow!" I said giggling at the thought of ash walking to school broken and battered!
We walked in 'Sasha's scoops' and ordered our ice creams. I had 'Black forest wolf' which is black forest gateau ice-cream with cherries and mini little wolf shaped chocolate pieces and Lucy got 'Dog's dinner', I know it sounds crappy but it's like forest fruity with white, black and milk chocolate chips; freaking awesome flavour!
We sat down and ate our ice cream peacefully. Till Lucy began to sob into her ice cream, for god sake cannot even ice cream moments be sacred form tears!
"Stop it!" I moaned "he isn't worth your tears!"I put my hand on her shoulder, not looking away from my ice cream making her giggle she knew how I felt about 'Black forest wolf' no matter what I was not going to look up and Officially ruin my ice cream moment! But I couldn't help it! And the tear stained face put me of my ice cream!
"Ohh thanks, I only just got to know this beautiful ice cream and here you are making me not want to see our time through to the end! Thanks!" I giggled. She smiled and out of the corner of my eye I could see a couple making out. It was customary for Lucy to look and see if we knew them because that would make some serious gossip!
"Lucy, who are the couple kissing?" I whispered only loud enough for her to hear me. She gave a peek and she immediately froze, she looked back at me with worried eyes, ohh no ash couldn't of picked up some one that fast could she, I mean he... Giggle giggle. I swooped my head down towards the table and glanced over at the couple. OH MY GOD... Jared was sitting with a girl who, after my earlier sight, can only assume is his girlfriend. I sorted the look on my face and looked back at Lucy.
"Hey do you fancy having a sleep over on Friday night?" I asked casually. She looked surprised but agreed, we chatted for a while on what we should do and we settled on whether or not to play truth or dare when we heard a massive fuss being made by the till witch made us look over in astonishment. Jared and his 'girlfriend' were complaining about something to do with a credit card and the price of their ice-cream and saying they had it all wrong!
"Wait you have got to be kidding me! We bought what... 2 ice creams and a coffee and that by my calculations is about £3.50! Not freaking £5!" he shouts. Wow he is so sexy when he is angry we could make such a good team, me and him! I pulled myself together and showed Lucy my disgust for anger problems...
"Anger management or what!" I mumble just low enough for Lucy to hear. Lucy giggles.
"You can talk! You beat up my ex-boyfriend because he bet he could get me easy!" she whispers' giggled I have to admit it does make me sound like a nut case. And with that we decided to make a move. "Let's go!" I say as I stand up and walk up towards the till.
"Did you see his face!" Lucy giggled as we walked home. "He looked so pissed!"
"its weird I mean I have never seen him act so freaky before!" I said hitting a serious note in my concentration on all my memories... I was right every time I ever saw him he was always the cute smiley Jared that would make all his friends laugh and his girlfriends fall for him!
