Ring Ring

A few seconds later, the doors of the school burst open and a sea of students flowed out.

"I just don't get it, why are you so angry at her?" Matt asked, pulling on his helmet.

"I have no idea who you're talking about" Roxanne replied, doing the same thing.

"Oh, come on. That new girl who looks just like you. Jasmine"

"Can we change the topic?" the blond said irritably, getting on her skateboard. She was about to take off when she heard someone call her. A very annoying someone.

"Hey! Wait up!"

Roxanne scowled and didn't bother to look around but Matt did. He saw Jasmine running towards them.

"I… can't… believe… you…" she panted, hands on her knees. "I've been looking everywhere. You're supposed to help me get around this place"

"Oh, yeah, right, whatever" Roxanne said. She once again started to move when a hand grabbed her wrist.

"Come on, Rox. Don't be so rude" Matt said.

"Matt! You seriously cannot be on her side" Roxanne said.

He sighed. "I'm not. But she's new and it's the right thing to help her"

Jasmine smiled at him. "Thank you. By the way, my name's Jasmine but I think you already know that"

Matt grinned. "Kinda. Matt" he said, extending a hand which Jasmine gratefully took.

Roxanne rolled her eyes. "Fine. But I can't stay long. I've got drag-" There was a brief moment when Jasmine looked at her. "-hunting to do." She smiled nervously.

"What?" Matt asked.

"Never mind" Roxanne said quickly. "Anyway, let's just get this over with. Where's your house supposed to be?"sShe asked Jasmine.

"Just a few blocks from here" she answered. "Let's go"

--

"Wow… this is your house?" Matt said in awe at the mansion he was seeing.

"Um… yeah, I'm sorry if it's a bit too much…" Jasmine said.

"Too much? Are you kidding? I can't believe you live here"

"Me neither" Roxanne muttered. She was, of course, amazed but she'd die first before she'd admit that.

"Wanna come in?" Jasmine offered.

"Sure" Matt said right away.

They looked at Roxanne in time that she was gazing at her watch, bored. Then, her expression changed as her eyes widened.

"Oh my gosh, I'm late!" she exclaimed. "Dad is so going to kill me!" She stared at the two staring at her. "What are you looking at?" She didn't bother to wait for an answer. "Anyway, sorry, can't talk, gotta go, see you tomorrow, bye!" She said it all quite fast and while she was halfway out of sight too.

Jasmine blinked. "What was that all about?"

Matt shrugged. "Beats me. She's always on a hurry for something. Wish I knew what"

"Anyway, let's go in"

"Ok"

And the two went in Jasmine's house together.
