TNGOG: Collin Randle Prospective

We dropped the Cade sisters, and Brittany off before we went back to Cola's house.

Nate leaned in towards the front seat as we were parked in front of Cola's house, "Dad is going kill me when he sees my eye."

Cola smiled at her cousin, "Tell him the truth, you were protecting Jewel, and me."

Nate grinned, "That should be alright, it's not like I went looking for a fight."

"I think protecting our girls is always a good reason to fight," I got out of the car, and walked to her side, helping her out as well.

Nate shut the door as he got out of the car, and looked at me, "I am not going in with out Cola."

I looked at Cola, "I'll see you at the track mete tomorrow?"

"Yeah, alright," Cola nodded.

"Nate, you go in before me, I need to talk to Collin," She thought for a moment, then looked at her still nervous cousin

"Go to the porch, just give me a moment with Collin."

"Fine then," He walked off towards the house.

I wrapped my arms around Cola's waist and smiled as I leaned in and kissed her lips. I held her tighter against me wanting to deepened the kiss.

She pulled out of the kiss, and smiled, "That was great," she leaned back in and continued the kiss.

The Next Day

"Cola is great!" I leaned against the fridge as my dad was fixing moms toaster at the table.

"What happened this time?" My dad asked not even looking up at me.

"I kissed her," I was grinning.

"Make sure that's all you do," He grinned as he looked up at me finally.

"Dad, I always carry something with me!" I rolled my eyes, "Not that we'll ever do anything, took her two months to let me kiss her."

"Now I see why you're grinning," Dad shook his head.

I left the kitchen, and went into the living room where mom was sitting, watching her show. "Hey mom."

"No thanks, Collin," Mom looked at me, with a grin, "And you should really stop eating that stuff."

"Sorry," I rolled my eyes, "Hello mom."

"Hello, baby," Mom wrapped her arm around me, "So how was the date with Cola?"

"Went great," I looked at the time, and remembered about the track meat, which was in less then an hour, "Shit I got to get going, the meat is in an hour, I got to get Cola." I kissed my moms cheek as I hurried out of the house, and jumped into my car, heading to the Cola's house.

Cola smiled as she got into the car, "Hey."

""Hey yourself," I pulled her closer to me, and wrapped my arm around her, "How you doing?"

"I am doing alright, you do know just because we are dating, doesn't mean I am going to let you beat me," She looked at me, then watched as we reached the park, where the meat was taking place.

After The Meat

I watched as Cola talked to her uncle, and Randy Jr., I knew it was alright since Coach Pony was part of the conversation.

Randy touched her arm.

Cola was laughing.

They both wave bye to Pony.

'Maybe I should go stand with Cola.'

"Hey, Randle?" Coach grabbed my shoulder, "Can I talk to you?"

"Sure, Coach," I kept a watch on my girlfriend, and Randy Jr. 'Why is he leaning in to her?'

"…and I think if…" Coach is talking.

I nod still watching my girl, 'Why is he touching her hair?'

"…is the slowest…" Coach is waving his stop watch in front of me, "…and your grades are slipping, so…."

"Thanks, Coach," I don't have a clue what coach is talking about.

"You're off the team," Coach pats my back, "At least until you improve your grades."

"I am off the team?" I heard that.

Cola runs up to me, and her uncle, "Hey."

"Your uncle kicked me off the team," I grabbed Cola's hand, "Come on we need to talk."

"Bye Uncle Pony," She glares at me, "That was pretty rude, Collin."

I rolled my eyes as I open the passenger door, "Get in."

"No, not when your in a bad mood," She slams the door shut.

I open the door again, "Get in the car Cola."

"No, I'll get a ride with Uncle Pony, "She looked around, then back at me, when she couldn't spot her uncle, "I'll walk home."

I took her hand, more gently, "I'm sorry, will you please get in the damn car?"

She stared at me for a moment, "If you promise never to act like that again."

I leaned into kiss her, but bit my lip when she backed away, "I promise Cola."

"Okay," She opened the door, and got in.

I did the same, "So, you think you could help me bring my grades up in Literature?"

She shrugged her shoulders, as she stared out the window silently.

I gently rubbed her back, "So you going to ignore me all night long?"

"Yeah," She gave me a side glance, and grinned as she turned and faced me, "But it could be so hard thought, how cute you are and all," she tossed a piece of paper outside the window, and smiled, "Randy gave me his phone number. He is so boring,"

I smiled at her, "Really, maybe I should let him know that you're taken."

She scooted closer to me, resting her head on my shoulder, "Maybe."

'Maybe I'll do just that,' I kissed the top of her head, "We going to Toms party?"

"Yeah," She looked at me, "Tomorrow right?"

"Yeah tomorrow," I smiled at her, "Let's eat."
