Chapter 21: iMeet a New Friend
Sixteen year old Marie Duke smiled to herself as she casually strolled down the school corridor, heading for her next class.
'Ah well, another day.' She thought to herself.
She was just glad Rachel seemed to have recovered from her break up with Bill and was actually dating again. At that moment however, her thoughts were cut off, by someone bumping into her, making both of them stagger.
"Oh, sorry." He replied quickly.
"It's fine." Marie reassured him quickly.
They both recovered and finally got a proper look at each other. The boy she'd bumped into was around the same age as her, six foot one with an athletic build, dark eyes and dirty blonde hair as well as light skin.
He smiled lightly. "So um..."
Marie started but recovered. "Oh, um, Ah'm Marie Duke."
"Jacob Byrd, my friends call me Jake." He introduced himself.
"Nice to meet ya." Marie replied with a smile.
Realizing they had the same class they began walking together, talking to each other, getting to know each other..
"So, uh..." Marie thought for a moment. "Where ya from?"
Jake smiled casually, replying. "Virginia, you?"
Marie nodded. "Ah'm from 'ere, but ma pop is from Louisiana."
"That explains your accent." He remarked, although not unkindly.
Marie laughed. "Yeah, get dat a lot."
Jake laughed too and they continued chatting, even meeting up with Rachel at lunch, by the end of the day, they were friends.
Heading home from school, Marie couldn't help but smile, still quite happy and somewhat surprised by her new friendship with Jake. Once home her parents immediately noticed her expression.
"Marie?" Her mother began.
Marie grinned "Hey mom."
Sam queried. "What's up, something's got you very cheerful."
"Made a new friend today." Marie remarked.
Bobby had entered at that point and heard her.
"Oh, cool."
Marie grinned and began telling them all about Jake. By the end of it her parents were both smiling, sharing a knowing look.
"He sounds pretty cool." Sam commented.
Marie nodded enthusiastically. "He is."
Sam and Bobby shared a knowing look again, yet at the same time were worried, but still hopeful.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
