Crazy
Chapter 2
"Laney, where are you going?" A'Lia asked her friend.
"I'm going over to sit by that guy. You see him right there?" Laney asks pointing.
A'Lia looked to see a man looking back at her.
"Ugh. Laney don't go over there; he looks like he's forty years old." She says.
Laney looked closer.
"Eww, your right never mind. That's gross." She says, grabbing some popcorn.
Soon the movie was over, and the girls headed to Applebee's.
"That movie soo sucked. It was nothing like the book. The only thing the same was the damn names. That was a waste of my money and time." Laney says.
"Yea true, and it had so much sex. It was all sex and no plot. That was just dumb." She says, flicking her newly straightened hair behind her.
When her hair was straightened it came all the way to her butt. As she got older her hair went from brown like her mom's, to black like her dad's. She looked just like Melinda with her dad's green eyes. It made guys swoon over her; thinking she was easy because she was pretty. Truth is, A'lia was still a virgin.
"Hello, my name is Josh and I'll be your server. Can I start you off with some drinks?" he asks.
"I'll take an iced tea." Laney says.
"I just want water." A'Lia says.
"Hey I know you." Josh says.
"Yea, who doesn't? With all those newspapers and articles and crap. Who doesn't know nerd girl by now?" A'Lia says sarcastically, rolling her eyes.
"No I'm Josh. I work with your mom. I'm her assistant. She talks about you all the time, she's really proud of you, you know." He says.
"Oh hi. Sorry, I just get sick of people saying 'Hey I know you.' It gets annoying sometimes. Nice to meet you. I'll tell my mom I saw you. I'll be working with you soon; I'm interning with mom starting Monday. I got my papers for it and everything, I can't wait." She says.
"Really? That's great. Cant wait to work with you. Let me go get your drinks." He says and he walks off.
"Good God girl, he is so fine! I mean he is fine, divine and right on time. If being sexy was illegal, he would probably have the death sentence." Laney says.
"Laney, you are crazy." A'Lia says.
"What? You know it's true." She says, giggling.
Josh walks up to the table with the girls drinks.
"Here you go ladies. Are you ready to order?" he asks, showing off his brilliant braces.
"Yes. I'll take a steak with mashed taters and mixed veggies." Laney says.
"I just want this grilled chicken salad." A'Lia says.
"Is that all?" Josh asks.
"Yes that's all." Laney says.
"Okay coming right up ladies." He says and walks away.
"God he is too fine." Laney says.
Soon the food comes out and the girls eat and leave. They see Josh standing by the bus stop.
"Hey Josh, you wanna ride?" A'Lia asks.
"Yea sure. I'll take one." He says and climbs in the back seat.
"Thanks guys. I live around the corner from you A'Lia." He says.
They drive to A'Lia's house and she and Josh get out and go inside the house.
"Mom, you got a visitor." A'Lia calls.
"Really? Who?" Melinda says from the kitchen.
She walks out.
"Josh! Hi, nice to see you. How's Brianne and the baby?" she says hugging him.
"They are doing well. I heard A'Lia is going to be working with us starting Monday." He says.
"Yep. We are throwing a party for her tomorrow. You can come if you want. I want to see that baby." Melinda says.
"Okay Linda. I'll be here. What time?" he asks.
"1:30. See you there. Are you walking?" she asks.
"Yea." He says.
"No your not it's too dark out there. Come on I'll take you home." She says, grabbing her keys.
"Okay Melinda." They walk out and A'Lia goes upstairs to her room and climbs in her bed.
