I- Iowa
I was born in Iowa. Not the most fascinating of places, but a lot of interesting people like me come out of it! I was on the plane, staring out the window. My mom was ranting about how I was too old to be carrying a puppet around. I wanted to tell her Rex wasn't a puppet, but that would only make things worse. We landed in Des Moines, and drove about 30 minutes out to my hometown.
"Robbie! So good to see you!" My grandma said, kissing my cheek. (No, not mamaw who lives in L.A., my other one)
"You too grandma," I smiled. My family was so embarrassing.
"Robbie! I wanna play with your puppet!" My twin 5 year old cousins Sheri and Lisa tugged on my shirt.
"He's not a puppet," I tried explaining.
"A doll?" Sheri said innocently. I decided a doll was worse.
"Actually, yes. He is a puppet."
"Can I play with him?" Lisa asked. I sighed. They were gentle girls.
"Sure."
They squealed happily and I took a walk in the nature trail by my grandma's house. One thing I loved about Iowa was the nature. All green. I walked past corn fields and the pastures. Some people say Iowa's boring, but I beg to differ.
J- Jolly Ranchers
Everyone likes Jolly Ranchers except me. But I hate a lot of things so it doesn't matter. For someone who hates Jolly Ranchers, I find myself going to the store for them a lot. Reason why: they have mysterious effects on Cat. They're like Cat's drug. When she's upset, they cheer her up. When she's hyper, they calm her down. When she's hungry, they fill her up. It's crazy how much she loves them. But she only likes red ones, so I have to pick through packages of them. For someone who doesn't have a lot of tolerance for most people, I sure have a lot for Cat.
"JADDEE. JADE JADE JADE JADE JADDEE!" I heard Cat scream and I snapped out of my train of thought.
"So what do you think?" Asked Beck, who had his arm around me. We were at the lunch table and they were talking about something.
"About what?"
"Jade. Why could you possibly be thinking about that was important enough to ignore us?" Tori whined.
"None of your business," I snapped.
"One time, my brother said he had to do business in my room, so I let him, and he pooped all over the floor! It was gross!" Cat squealed. "You know what else is gross?" Cat asked, giving us a serious look. "Tomatoes. They're all like, hi, I'm red and I look like a giant cherry but I have gross little seeds and I taste bad." She started an uncontrollable fit of laughter. I rolled my eyes and reached in my bag for my emergency stock of Jolly Ranchers.
K- Klutzy
"Trina! We're going to be late!" I called up the stairs to my diva of a sister.
"Hold on! I have to finish with this Mediterranean mouthwash and it takes one minute to rid of any germs in your mouth for a clean and clear singing voice! "She called down. I rolled my eyes. I walked around our kitchen, and decided to put away the dishes. I stacked 7 plates, 4 bowls, and a bunch of cups and started my slow walk over to the cabinets. Almost there, 5 more steps! I carefully walked, not wanting to drop the dishes.
"TORAYY!" Trina screamed.
I jumped up and dishes flew up and landed with a crash on the floor. The glass shattered in many tiny pieces and I sighed.
"What was that?" Trina asked, coming down the stairs. She stared at the mess and sat on the couch. "I'll be sitting here! Tell me when you're done cleaning!" She said and she put her earplugs in her ear. I sighed.
"Can you help me so we make it to school on time?" I asked.
"Nope. Your own fault that you're a klutz."
I sighed and started picking up the glass. I glanced at the clock. 8:20. Great. School starts in 10 minutes and it's a 10 minute drive.
L- Love
I'm the only one who sees it. No one else. I don't get it, but whatever. The "gang" as Tori likes calling us, Me, Jade, Cat, Andre, and Robbie, and Tori are the best friends in the world, and I seem to be the only one that knows why. We're all in love with each other.
If you think about it, you could pair any girl in our gang with any guy in our gang, and it would find a way to be a good matched couple. Even the strange seeming ones. Like Jade and Robbie. But it could work. I mean, Jade's a deep person, and she likes people who can't overpower her. Robbie. She likes quirky people that she can explore. Robbie. It would work.
But even though we're interchangeable, we all only have one soul mate. The one person that you're perfect with. Me and Jade, Tori and Andre, and Cat and Robbie. Again, I seem to be the only person that's figured it out, but they'll catch along.
Weelll, you like? If you don't like my selections for letters, gimme some suggestions! Ha, I'll tell you the letters that have been claimed already.
S- for sisters (Tori&Trina) Korversauce's idea!
Q- for quiet(Beck) Spongeboblover101's idea!
And of course, A-L
But that's it! You have most of the last half of the alphabet! I like your suggestions, and you receive credit in the story!
Thanks!
