Chapter 4- Next Day

The next day, Stephanie wakes up to the sound of her alarm. She gets up, takes a shower, and walks to her closet. "What should I wear today"? Stephanie says to herself. She was so excited to get to school today and a tall blond was the reason for it. She picks out an blue halter top, black skirt-thats not too long and not too short but it showed off her long legs- and black boots. She puts on her makeup and gets ready to leave. She wanted to look extra good for Paul. "Mom!", Stephanie screams downstairs. "Yes sweety?", Linda answers. "Can I hang out with Stacy after school?". "Yes, just as long as you make it back before curfew! replies Linda. "Ok mom!" ,replies Stephanie as she walk down the stairs. Her mom looks at her as she walks downstairs. "Well I see Andrew has somebody looking really special for him today", Linda jokes. Stephanie still hasnt told her parents about what happen between her and Andrew. The reason being is because they were already angry with her, when she began dating him. Mainly her dad, who hated seeing her with an older boy, rather any boy to be honest. They believed he was with her, to get in her pants. Sad thing is they were right. It tooks a month to get her parents to come around. It would really suck to see all that work just to be turned back around on her once they find out they were right. So she finally made the decision to tell her mom half the truth. " Mom, I'm not with Andrew anymore. We just both made the decision we were two different people.", Stephanie says while looking sad. Linda looked at her daughter and was about to hug her when she noticed Steph's face was swollen. She always knew Andrew was no good for Stephanie, but she would be damned, if he hit her! "Sweety, may I ask how your face became swollen?", Linda asked looking her daughter straight in her eyes. Stephanie, threw back by the question, couldnt find te words to say. Her mom was looking at her as if she already had the answer. She tried to play out different lies in her head, but all of them just didnt work for her. As soon as she was about to reveal the truth, a horn honked outside. "Saved by the horn!", Stephanie whispered to herself as she made her way to the door. "Aww, sorry mom, it was really nice talking to you but I have to go. Love you mom!", says Stephanie as she gives Linda a quick peck on the cheek. "Dont think we're done talking about this. Your dad and I will discuss this with you later young lady!", yelled at Stephanie as she was walking out. As Stephanie got in the car with Stacy, She hugged her and kissed her on the cheek. Stacy wiped her cheek and looked at Stephanie strangely. "I know i'm like the bestest friend in the world, but please do not show the love for me like that!", laughed both laughed as they made their way to school.

Paul was up and ready for school. He couldn't wait to see Stephanie today. He felt something good about her he couldnt explain. He just couldnt wait to see that sexy brunette again. "Lets put this Axe to work!", said Paul as he put on his favorite cologne. As he brushed his hair into a slick ponytail, his phone ringed. Thinking it was Stephanie he answered quickly.

Paul- Hey pretty lady!
Melina- Hey Paul, how did you know it was me? And here is me thinking you deleted my number. Who am I kidding? You could never delete me out your phone, head, or life. ( she laughs)
Paul, angrily cursed under his breath as he heard the voice of the most heartless bitch, he has ever came to face with.
Paul- What do you want Melina and why are you calling my phone? WE ARE THROUGH! What part of that did you not get? (He went from excited to pissed in a flash once he heard her voice.)
Melina- Baby, please I know you're angry but you shouldn't be. I still love you Paul and I know you still love me.
Paul- I have every right to be angry you filthy slut! You used me to make Dave jealous! You had me thinking we had something special. I did have feelings for you. Strong feelings and you just ripped them away the moment you went back to him and acted like I never exist. You spread your legs and now look at you! Enjoying the baby Melina. Is Dave even dropping by to see it, or does he even come by at all? Probably only when he wants some of what Melina EAGERLY gives up! (He hears her crying) Listen Melina, Im moving on and trying to forget about all the bull you put me through! So im about to get off this phone before I say something that would hurt your feelings way more then I already have. Bye! (Paul hangs up the phone)
After Paul hangs up the phone he hears his mom screaming that Chris is outside. I meet him outside and dont even talk to him the whole way to school. What once was going to be my greatest day , might just be my worse.

Paul and his friends meet up in the cafeteria to hang out. Paul notices both of them staring at him so he gives thim a weird look.
Randy and Shawn- Well..
Paul- Well what? ( still angry from the call earlier)
Randy- Whats up with you and the chick?
Paul-Nothing really. just new friends.
Randy- You gonna bang her?
Paul looks at him strangely- I dont know. Im not really planning on it. Why when everytime you, I or Shawn meet a girl, you always asks that! Seriously man you need help.
Randy and Shawn look at eachother, then look back at Paul. -Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed or something because you're really acting like an. hmm, whats the word, OH YEAH ASS!(randy screams)
Paul- I'm the one acting like an ass. Look in the mirror asshole. You are the king of asses!( Paul says angrily)
Shawn- Ok so whats up really? Because I really dont like the way you are acting today! You are really starting to piss both of us off!
Paul- Melina called ( he angrily says)
Shawn- Wow. man that must blow. What did she want?
Paul- Does it matter? That bitch shouldn't even be allowed to breathe the same air as me after what she did. I cant believe she had the nerve to call me and act like nothing ever happened!
Randy- Sorry man! Forget her! She aint nothin. Just focus on your new "friend" she seems cool. Plus she's smokin hot man! (all of them laugh)
Paul- Leave it up to Mr. Whore to put a smile on my face. While the group is laughing and joking around, Stephanie and Stacy walks up to them.

Stacy-Hey guys! Hi Randy (she says in a flirty tone while walking into his open arms)
Randy- Hey baby(Kissing her on the cheek) I've been thinking about you (Stacy blushes)
While Stacy and Randy are flirting, Paul cant help but check Stephanie out.
Paul- You are looking extra sexy today Stephanie! ( she blushes)
Stephanie- Thank you. You're not looking so bad yourself. (they both laugh)
Paul- What about that kiss, we talked about last night?
Steph- What about it? (she says looking at him)
Paul- You looking so sexy today makes me want to lay one on you right now. (Steph blushes even harder)
Stephanie- Well whats stopping you? ( she says laughing)
Paul- Nothing really, I guess. (he laughs)
Stephanie- Then do it! ( she says jokingly but really wanting him to do it)
Not sure whether she's joking or not he leans in anyway. Their lips meet and and they end up in a passionate lip lock. Shawn is looking between his two friends in their love lives, feeling like a third wheel. He feels like hes about to be saved when he sees his other best bud Chris approaching. But that ended when he brought Trish with him.

Chris- Hey Shawn. I see you are alittle bit left out in the romance department. (laughing)
Shawn- Wow really! I didnt notice. (he says sarcastically)
Chris- Well my twin sister's friend wants to meet you. Her name is Maria K. Dont say I never did anything for you! Shawn hugs Chris and Trish, thanks him and goes to meet Maria. Chris pats both Randy's and Paul's shoulders.
Chris- Are you guys going to come up for air? (laughing)

Paul- Hey Chris and Trish! This is Stephanie. (they shake hands) Steph this is my besties and also my cousin Chris and Trish!
Stephanie-nice to meet you guys.
Chris- I can say the same. When did you get a girlfriend Paul?
Paul- (not really knowing what to say) yesterday. when your ex-friend was smacking her around. I had to pull a superman on that asshole and in the process got me a new girl.(kiss Stephanie's cheek/she blushes) and sorry about the silent ride this morning. Something happened, that had me in a pissed off mood.
Chris-Its cool. Well now everybody has somebody, this weekend is group date night!
Randy- I'll be there( Bell rings) But for right now Bye baby and bye asses. Have to get to class. (laughs walking off)
They all just wave him off and start to head for their classes. As Stephanie sees Paul getting his bag off the table, she stops his actions.
Stephanie- Hey Paul. (Paul faces her and says yeah) This may sound dorky but are we going out?
Paul- I dont know. (laughs) If you want to be official, I would love that. But I know you want to take it slow, so we can just be on friend/dating status.
Stephanie- Well maybe I dont want slow anymore. I really liked that kiss and I was wondering maybe we can just date but still be official. I mean, lets go out but get to know eachother while doing it. I really feel happy with you.
Paul- For someone who wanted to take it slow, is already my girlfriend in a day. (they both laugh) But that would be great. Date night, I will be picking you up around 7. Is that ok?
Stephanie-Yeah, totally. (she says smiling) Bye Paul.
Paul-I dont say bye to my girlfriend that way. ( he grabs her and kisses her) But I do run in the hallways to keep myself from being late and I really suggest you doing the same! ( he laughs)
Paul grabs her hand and they both run to their classes hoping not to be late.

Review! :) Longest one yet. lol.
