STARGIRL- Where is WOLFJADE? I thought she was coming an hour ago!
Donnie- I'm sure she'll be here any minute...
WOLFJADE(rushing into the lair, where STARGIRL and Turtles are waiting)- Hi STARGIRL, hi guys...
Raph- Some entry...
STARGIRL- WOLFJADE! Where have you been? You're an hour late! Everyone's waiting!
WOLFJADE- Oh no! l'm late, l'm late...for a very important date!
STARGIRL- No time to say hello; goodbye...
Both- We're late, we're late, WE'RE LATE!
*Burst up laughing
STARGIRL: Well, that was fun, but let's not keep anyone waiting any longer...here's a brand new chapter everyone! Hope you enjoy it, and by all means, feel free to leave your thoughts or ideas by means of review or PM!
WOLFJADE- Yeah...let's get this party started! ^.^
Ella POV~
Well, the rest of the day didn't go too much better- to put it simply, l tried to avoid Brad for the rest of the day, but just because l was good at avoiding him, doesn't mean l could tune out his constant boasting to his friends. Even in the girls restroom stall, l could hear a couple girls badmouthing the "stuck up snob" that refused to hook up with Brad.
Sheesh, the end of the day couldn't come fast enough.
As usual, the library was a safe haven. As l talked to Miss Stevenson, l felt much better. She was kind of like my Grandma- calm, gentle, and willing to listen and offer advice in any way she could.
l think l can fairly say that it was the highlight of my day.
Other than leaving the school grounds for the day. Jewel was very bubbly on the walk home, but that was just as good for me. The more she talked, the less l was required to, which meant l had time to think about the day's events.
Plus l enjoyed seeing my little sister happy.
Getting home meant homework time. While l love my sister, we do have our opposite trends. For instance, l loved a quiet, calm environment while l was doing my homework. Jewel can't focus on anything unless there is some music or noise in the background. l fact, she is the only one in the entire school who is allowed to listen to her ipod while she takes her tests. Though it is funny to see the teachers reaction as they observe her jamming out to math problems.
While Jewel is in the her room, probably wiping out her given homework, l can still hear her humming, despite the fact that her door closed .
Which l smile at. Hey, everyone has their own techniques. As for me, l am finished with everything except science, and l walk over to the dinner table finish it, as l am beginning to fall asleep on the couch. Hey, what can l say? lt's comfortable.
"Okay, lets get science out of the way " l said to myself, as l slide into my seat, open my book, and start writing.
l am gonna take Ms. Stevenson's advice, and see if l can complete enough of the project on my own, that way, l can convince my teacher to let me finish the project by myself. That would be awesome.
l was surprised by a text from an unknown number, as l was on the second to last problem. Which is weird , since Jewel is the only one who texts me, and she is the other room, so she has no reason to.
At first, l was gonna ignore it, thinking maybe Brad had gotten ahold of my number. Unfortunately, l was being tempted by curiosity as my phone kept buzzing for missed alert.
"Why is this so hard to ignore? " I ask myself.
I glanced at my phone and sigh before silencing my phone. I smiled, but before I could do my work again, my phone buzzed again, saying l got another text. Finally giving in, l looked at what the message said, and I smiled wide. l recognized who it was immediately, and it filled me with joy.
Donnie POV-
I glance at my T-phone for the fifth time already. I've been looking at it hopefully for the last five minutes . Trying to formulate all the possible scenarios which would prevent her from instantly answering my text. l had nearly talked myself out of texting her, letting my nervousness get the best me.
Shell, l wish l could figure out why l'm so nervous? She herself gave me her number and told me to call or text her whenever l wanted. As thrilled as l was about that, something inside me was afraid to call her.
I sigh, and before thinking twice about it, l texted her number again, saying 'Hi Ella, it's Donnie'. Hey, maybe she didn't recognize my number.
I feel large amounts of nervous energy wash over me, and worry about over me as i start to regret texting her . I mean she probably has better things to do than to be talking to a giant mutant turtle . But all my fears and doubts fade away as l instantly get a text back
" Hi Donnie, how r u? " she texted me. l feel a smile spread on my face as l type back .
"Gr8! Wondering what ur ^ 2?"
"^.^ l wondered when u would text me. Lol ;D"
'Wait...' l thought to myself '...she's been waiting for me to text her? l can hardly believe l nearly backed out of texting her! I smiled and quickly texted back.
" Hehe ... sorry. Been busy w/ x-tra training and my inventions; how bout u?".
"Seen better days, but life's not too bad ;D. School, homework, TV, and putting thugs in their place ;D "
l chuckled, knowing exactly what she was referring to.
"Lol! :D What r u doing now?" I asked her. l liked texting her, but l really wanted to see her and hang out.
"Homework! Grrr...having trouble on this darn science hard! I think my teachers just hate me XD" She texted me.
I couldn't help but chuckle at her text, but it would have been so much better hearing her say that in person. Though l was having fun even though she isn't here.
'Wait...' I smiled as I realize this is a chance for me to hang out with her. Now the nervousness kicks in again at that thought my body because a nervous wreck as usual . I sigh as i nervously text her back . " Maybe I could help you with your homework ?"
"That would be fantastic...l could really use some help " Ella said.
"Ok, great! When do you want me to come over? " I ask. There was no limiting the amount of joy and excitement inside of me.
"Anytime...sooner the better actually...HOMEWORK SOS! ;D"
Laughing at that, l replied "Lol :D l'll be over in a few minutes".
"Sounds good, I'll be here" she wrote.
"K , see u in few" I typed.
"^.^" was her reply.
With that I grab my Bo-stafff and put it in its holder . Running out of the lair, smiling like a idiot the entire way .
