Chapter ten! Not really awesome, but anyway!
Enjoy!
The next morning, I am at the table for the music contest inscription, completing the inscription sheet. Dougie and Harry were really happy to be a pat of the band and Danny and Tom were really happy to participate to this contest. And I was too. Everybody was happy!
I finish to writing down the names of the guys and stop on the next line ''the name of the band''. Damn! We haven't thought about it!
''Hey, Kim! Didn't know you were entering the music competition!'' A voice says beside me. I turn my head to the right and see Amanda, giving her inscription sheet to the girl at the table.
''Oh, ahem, it's not me… It's Danny and Tom… And Dougie and Harry. They are a band, you see?'' I reply.
''That's awesome.'' She smiles. ''And what's the band's name?'' She continues to smile.
Fast, Kim. Fast! A name, a name… I see Tom entering school and walking toward his locker. He's wearing his favourite shirt today, the black one written ''Back To The Future'' on it. Amanda is still waiting for my answer. I look back to Tom's t-shirt, then Amanda.
''Ahem, the- the name of the band is... is... Mar... McFly!'' I finally say.
''McFly? That's... original... I guess.''
''Tom's a big, big fan of Back To The Future, you know! It's his favourite movie.'' I smile nervously.
''He chose the name?''
''With the guys... They all... love Back To The Future.'' I mumbled, then write ''McFly'' on the line and give the sheet to the girl at the table. ''Well, I got to go, now. Good luck, by the way!'' I walk away, nearly running toward my locker. I hear Amanda sighting and walking away with her high heels. I start running toward my lock where Danny, Tom and Dougie are. The girl beside Danny and Tom's locker drop some sheets on the floor and I unfortunately can't stop and step on them. I slip on them and close my eyes, expecting hitting the floor in a few seconds, but hands hold my waist, preventing me from falling. I opened one eyes and see Dougie's face, smiling at me. I start blushing.
''Just in time, I guess.'' He giggles.
''I think so.'' He helps me to get back on my feet and I go to my locker and opened it, hiding my blushing face in my locker.
''Are you okay, Kim?'' Tom asks, leaning on his locker.
''Yes, yes, everything's fine.'' I put my bag on my locker and close my locker door once I feel my face isn't hot and red anymore.
''Why were you running like this?'' Danny asks, crossing his arms on his chest.
''Well, we needed a name for the band... and Amanda came and talked to me and she asked me the name of the band, but... I didn't know we needed a name...'' I loo at my feet, feeling really embarrassed suddenly.
''Kim...'' Danny and Tom said at the same time.
''I kind of... chose the name... Sorry.'' Danny sighs really loudly, whilst Tom simply take a deep breathe and close his eyes.
''What name did you chose?'' He asked, still his eyes closed?
''When she asked me the question, you just entered school and I saw you were wearing your Back to the-''
''That's not the question, Kim.'' Danny cuts me.
''I wrote down McFly... Because of Marty McFly in Back To The Future, I'm so sorry guys, I was panicking.'' I say really fast, with nearly tears in my eyes because I know that they would be mad at me. Tom opens his eyes and looks at Danny who looks at Dougie, who shrugs.
''It's a cool name, I guess. Original, too. Plus, I love Back To The Future, so I don't mind.'' He smiles.
''You are right.'' Tom says. ''That's a cool name.'' He smiles to me.
