A/N Okay fixin something right now. I realize I may have fucked up some of you with where she lives at. The thing is she lives a few houses down the street from Logan. She was late to school that day not because traffic sucked and she lives far away, but because her mom ran some errands before she dropped Alex off. There did that help? Here is mah hockey game chapter. Who's ready for the chapter? I know I am! Well my flash drive kind of janked itself up at first so I had to rewrite it. Hopefully it'll be as good as the original version. I'll let you read now.
Disclaimer: If I owned BTR I'd let you know. For now I only own Alexis, Ke'ilah, Melkam, and a few other things.
Chapter 4
(Jealous Much?)
January 8, 2011
*Alexis POV*
-7:26pm-
Today is the big day. The day of the hockey game. Oh and I found out I can't fake a broken spleen. I tried…I didn't wear the outfit I bought at the mall. I figure wearing a dress to a hockey game is a stupid idea. Ice and dresses…eh, not my thing. I wore a pair of baggy faded blue jeans and a large t-shirt with my name spray painted on the back. I wore electric green and yellow Nike's and I listened to my friends and wear my hair down.
"Lets go Alexis. We have to go pick up Logan and his date." My mom says. Bleh. I grab a black coat and walk out the door behind my mom. The cold winter air bites at my face. It literally stings when the wind blows. We both climb in the car.
"Who is Logan's date anyway?" my mom asks me as she starts the car.
"Ella Richards." I say. My mom crinkles up her nose.
"The one who can't take a joke?" she asks.
"That's the one." I say with a smirk. My mom drives down the street to Logan's crib. Mrs. Joanna was outside waving at us. My mom reaches over and waves out of my window.
"Hey Joanna!" she yells. Thanks mom for announcing to the whole neighborhood our arrival.
"Hi Megan! I'll get the kids!" she yells back. My mom climbs back to her seat. I look out the window and see Ella and Logan walking to the car. I snort and my mom hits my shoulder.
"Be nice Alexis." She whispers. I raise my eyebrows. Nice? Nice! Oh I'll be nice alright. Logan opens the door for Ella and she slides in. I notice her outfit. Let me say this, it took all of my will power not to laugh and/or barf.
She's wearing a low cut pink and white striped shirt which just seemed to show a lot of her boobage. Ella's a size D cup. 'An 8th grader with D cup tits?' You may be asking. Yes. A 'D'. And she flaunts the hell out of it. She has on a rhinestoned blue jean miniskirt and pink furry boots. Her blond hair is down in curls and she had on black eyeliner. As much as I want to say 'She has so much make-up she looks like a raccoon', but no, she doesn't. All she has on is the eyeliner and some pink lip gloss. Oh did I tell you that she is on the high school cheer leading team? Well she is. Assistant captain of the team. Youngest person on the fucking team. Maybe now you understand why I cut her hair when I did.
"Hey Alexis and Ms. Mitchell." Logan says. Alexis? When the fuck did he start calling me by my real name.
"Hi there Ms. Mitchell…Alexis." Ella says with a smile.
"Hello Ella." My mom says. I stay silent and say nothing to the bitch and the traitor. My mom glares at me. I sigh.
"Yeah hi. Whatever." I say quickly. Mom rolls her eyes and drives to the hockey rink.
"Your hair is pretty Alexis." Logan says.
"Yeah thanks. Whatever." I grumble. I stare out the window as my mom drives. Ella and Logan start chatting in the back seat. Their conversations are sickening.
"Your skirt is nice Ella." Logan would say.
"Thanks Logie." She would reply.
"I don't know much about hockey." She would say. He puts his arm around her shoulder.
"Don't worry. You can sit next to me and I'll tell you all about It." he would reply. Finally after a good half an hour we arrived at the rink. I practically jumped out of the car. We got out of the car and my mom stayed in. Logan and Ella walked in ahead of me and then my mom calls me.
"ALEXIS!" she yells. I turn around. She smirks at me before continuing.
"You and Logan would make a way cuter couple." She says. My mouth drops open and my cheeks start burning. It's an awkward feel compared to the cold air.
"Mooooommmmmmmm." I whine. She laughs and then drives away. Oh my gosh. I look around and see that no one saw that…scene. I walk into the building and find all of my friends waiting. The girls and guys had managed to split up into two groups. I walk over to where the girls are. I notice that Gabriella is here. So James is leaving me to go stag? Real nice.
"Hey girls." I say. They all say hi in their own different ways.
"How's it going Gabby?" I ask her.
"Fine. Nice shoes." She says.
"Thanks." I say.
"Damn man. Why didn't you wear the dress?" Ke'ilah asks.
"Hi to you too." I say sarcastically. She smiles. "Its too cold for dresses. I mean that's stupid wearing a dress to an ice rink." I say. My friends start laughing. Ella saunters over to us.
"Hey there girls." She says with a sharks grin. Melkam, Ke'ilah and I mumble hi. Yes they hate her too. Gabriella is the only one who doesn't hate her that much. She has enough sense to be polite.
"Hi. I like your skirt Ella." Gabriella says. Ella twirls around in a circle.
"It is a nice skirt isn't it? Logan said he likes it too." Ella says. She directs a smirk in my direction. I look away and cross my arms over my chest.
"Don't you think it's a tad bit short?" Melkam asks.
"That's the point. It's a nice skirt for sluts." Ke'ilah mumbles. Everybody snickers. Everyone except Ella. She glares at Ke'ilah.
"Where'd you get those earrings? The Dumpster?" Ella asks. She's talking about Keilah's hoop earrings with a key attached to only one of them. Ke'ilah puts her hands on her hips.
"No, but where'd you get that shirt? From your little sister?" she asks.
"You know, Koala, I think you're jealous of my clothes. And after I'm done with it, do you want these left over's too?" she asks. Ke'ilah's mouth drops open and her eyes get a bit glassy. Oh shit. There is some ish about to go down up in here. Since you don't know, I'll explain what's so bad about her statement. Carlos use to have a huge crush on Ella (pretty much all the guys do/did). Well she kind of used our little Carlos as a puppy. She had him wrapped around her pinky finger. He'd do anything for her. After a while she just like treated him like shit, but of course he didn't care. So she's insinuating that Ke'ilah has her sloppy seconds. Mean right?
"I'm going to go powder my nose." She says. Ella winks at us and then walks away. We are all left there speechless.
"That bitch…" Gabby finally says to end the silence. All of the girls start talking with fury. I tune out and try listening in to the guys' conversation. I hear a bit of it.
"Soo Alexis? Guess you should have hit that when you had the chance huh buddy?" I hear Kendall say.
"What? You're the one who told him to take it slow." Carlos says.
"Oh you're crazy bitch, I didn't say that bitch." Kendall says. He would be the one to use Family Guy analogy. Those guys are fun people. I tune back in with the girls…partially.
"Let's go in. The game is about to start." Melkam says. They all travel to their respective guys. We all walk in and I stay in the back. Logan falls behind and walks next to me.
"What's with the bad mood Alexis?" He asks me. I turn my head to look at him.
"Why are you calling me by my first name all of a sudden?" I ask.
"Ella said girls like it when you call them by their real name." he explains.
"Since when did you start listening to Ella?" I ask irate. I don't know why my mood had gone downhill so fast. Logan seems to think about his answer for a while. He stops me in the middle of the walk way.
"Ella, is just helping me out. You know helping me relieve some tension." He starts. "Yeah anyway she is just being a good friend. And helping me with a favor." He says. Favor huh? I roll my eyes.
"Hey! Hurry up!" James yells at us. We had gotten pretty far behind everyone. We both share a quick glance and then run to catch up. All of us find our seats and sit. Ella had caught up to us by the time we found our seats. I sit smushed between James and Logan. Ella sat on the far end next to Logan. Gabriella sat next James. Then Ke'ilah, then Carlos, then Kendall and Melkam on the end. The game horn sounds and the game begins. This is going to be a long night.
*Gabriella's POV*
-9:56pm-
The game is going great. The guys are like loving it. Every now and then I'd check on Alex. She seems a little in edge tonight and with Ella here she could go off. She got stuck in between James and I and Ella and Logan. Truthfully I'm shocked she kept so quiet through this first half of the game. Ella hasn't done anything too mean of vulgar tonight, and for that I'm glad. What she was doing though was milking being with Logan. She was getting in Alex's head, and I could tell she was loving every minute of it. Right now the game is tied and the opposing team has the puck. The suspense is rising and people are getting restless.
About halfway through the second half of the game though I saw Ella give Alex a sadistic smile. I didn't see what was coming but I'm pretty sure Alex did. As soon as Ella and Alex shared that look Ella turned to Logan.
"Hey Logie. I was wondering…if you wanted to be my boyfriend." She says. All 9 of us went silent dead silent. I saw something in Alex break. Her eyes got glassy and her lip quivered slightly. She shot up out of her seat and stormed out of the stadium. Ella just kept on her smile and watched her leave. Logan jumps out of his seat.
"Dude! What the hell! What was that about? This was not a part of the plan." he yells at Ella. She calmly gets out of her seat.
"Logan babe. What do you mean? This was the plan after all." She says.
"No it wasn't! You were supposed to help me get Alexis to like me! All you've fucking done is push her away from me more!" he yells.
"She's not good enough for you Logan. I mean look at her! She's not woman enough for you Logie bear." She says snaking her arms around his neck. He pushes her off and away from him.
"She is more woman than you will ever be." He says venomously. Damn. I've never heard him talk like this before. He gives her one last glare and runs off to find his girl. You go boy! I turn to James.
"How long do you think it will take before they finally kiss?" I ask.
"A week." He replies.
"I say today."
"You wanna bet?"
"20 bucks on it." I say. I put out my hand. He takes it and shakes it.
"You are so going down." he says.
"We'll see about that." I say.
*Alexis POV*
-10:01pm-
As soon as she looked at me I knew what she was planning. Her eyes said it all. 'I win.' You know…when you go to school with people like her you learn that when they go after someone or something you want, its automatic game over. Time to throw in the towels. Who would say no to a fucking cheerleader? At first I figured she's bluffing. Just trying to get into my head you know. Once she said it aloud though, I cracked. I couldn't be there when he answered. I couldn't watch them be together any longer. So I ran.
Yes, I know running doesn't solve any problems, but it sure as hell gave me some time to think and cry. I ran to the girls' bathroom and slid down against the wall onto the floor. It's disgusting in here and I don't care. With like 30 minutes left of the game the whole bathroom is completely empty. Perfect place to be alone. I sat there and I cried with my face in my hands. I don't know why I was crying. It doesn't even make sense to me either. I hear yelling outside of the bathroom, and I try to silence my crying.
"Alexis? Alexis! Where are you?" I hear. I recognize the voice as Logan's. The yelling gets closer. A sob escapes my mouth and the yelling stops. "Alexis? Are you in there?" he asks.
"No." I squeak out. "Go away Logan." I say. I sniffle and wipe my nose on the back of my jacket sleeve. "Go back to your g-girlfriend!" I yell. I suddenly have a strong hate for that word.
"…" silence for a few seconds. "Zandy, I'm coming in." he says finally. The door to the bathroom opens and Logan walks in. He stops at the door and just looks at me for a little while. I sniffle and turn my head away. He finally comes over and sits next to me. We stay there awkwardly for a while until he wraps his arm around me comfortingly. I tense up. He drops his arms back to his sides.
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you go back with…her?" I say with a sniffle. He laughs a short laugh.
"I don't like her." He says simply. I turn my head to face him.
"What?"
"You heard me. I said I don't like her. I never liked her."
"…Why'd you bring her then?"
"I told you. She was supposed to be helping me. I asked for her help to get some girl to like me. She kind of screwed that up though. She told me that if we make her jealous she'd come running to me. She told me to do a lot of stuff to get her to like me, but I think the girl hates me now." he says.
"No one can hate you Logan. You're way to sweet." I say. He smiles slightly. "So. You were having Ella help you get a girl?"
"Yeah, pretty much." He says with a smile. So it's not Ella that he likes but some other girl.
"Oh…who is she?" I ask childishly. I pout along with it. He wraps his arms back around me, and I relax.
"You'll know soon enough. I'm going to kiss her, but she doesn't know yet." he says.
"Oh." I say. I sit there for a few seconds then I sigh. "Um. We better get back in there before the game ends." I say.
"Yeah. Let's go back." He agrees. He stands up and holds out his hand. I take it and he helps me up. I wipe my face on the other sleeve of my jacket. The one without the snot over it. Ew. That's gross. We walk back to our seats and Ella is still there.
"AND MINNESOTA WILD HAS THE PUCK. NUMBER 34 IS RUSHING THE NET...AND…SCORE! THE MINNESOTA WILD TAKES HOME THE GAME!" The announcer yells.
Everyone jumps out of their seats and yells. Kendall, hockey freak that he is, was doing the most shouting. I turn to face Logan.
"We won!" I shout. I turn to face the ice again and throw my arms in the air. Yeah yeah! I feel a peck on my cheek. I stop shouting and face Logan. He's wincing.
"Don't hit me too hard." He says. I tilt my head to the side.
"You missed." I say. He stands straight again.
"I missed…what do you mean I-" I cut him off and put my index finger against his lips.
"Shh. You talk too much. Let me show you." I whisper with a smile like plastered on my face. I grab the front of his shirt and crush our lips together. Can I say that this may be the best first kiss in the history of first kisses? I put my arms around his neck, and his end up around my waist. I hear cheering in one ear and screaming in the other. I know its Ella screaming and I smirk about that fact. I flick her off with my arms still around Logan's neck. She storms off and I mentally do a dance. Logan and I break apart.
"Oh yeah bitch! Give me my money." I hear. I turn around to see James handing Gabriella a 20 dollar bill.
"Ugh! You guys couldn't have waited till next week to make out." He complains.
"Shut up and give me the money Jamie." Gabby says. I laugh. Ke'ilah practically tackles me. She squeezes me in a hug.
"I knew it! Ha! Ha! Ha!" she yells. I wriggle my way out as she starts shouting about her being right. We all walk out of the stadium to the front where our parents should be waiting. I link Logan's fingers in mine. He squeezes my hand lightly and a smile creeps on my face. I wonder how Ella got home. Is it mean that I don't give a rat's ass? She is going to be so pissed when I go back to school.
Right now though, Ella can't ruin this. I won this round and I'm going to milk it as long as possible. Logan leans down and kisses my cheek again. A blush splays across my cheeks and a few of my friends wolf whistle. Today has been a pretty good day…
A/N How'd you like it? I don't know anything about hockey so don't flame me about that. I'm not really a hockey nut. I've watched 5 minutes of a game on T.V. oh and I think this is the last chapter of this story. Since I'm not in eighth grade anymore I can really remember what happened over the year. I know it sucks but I ended it on a good note right! And I want to start writing my other stories. So I hope you guys enjoyed this short story. Remember to review. REVIEW! OH If I can think of anything I might put up another few chapters. Just maybe but as of now it over. Give me some epic ideas and I'll add some more. Ideas anyone?
~Love,
I'm Adorkable~
