Another Story arch has ended, now let the third one, begin! :D

"So...they're together?" Ashley asked, eager to here my news.

"Yep." I smiled.

Ashley jumped up yelling Wohoo!, throwing snow up in the air.

I laughed as she did this and the flakes came tumbling down slowly, gentally and softly.

"Another drama down." Ashley smiled hoping up on the metal fence we sat on.
"Yep, them two should be fine for now." I smiled.

"Yep, wonder what else there is to come..."Ashley thought...

I couldn't help but wonder as well...

"Hey," Smiled Gus walking up to us.

"Hey Gus," Mikey smiled.

"What's up?" I asked as Vince and Gretchen started to kiss.

"Wanna come over to my house tomorrow to watch a movie?" He asked.

"OF COURSE!" cheared Mikey.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot..." Vince went on.

"Forfot what?" I asked really confused.

"It's Gus's birthday tomorrow!" Gretchen smiled.

"Really? Cool, sure, I'll come!" I smiled.

"Great!" Gus smiled.

We then departed as the bell went.

"How's life?" I asked as I throw an apple at Ashley.

She caught it with one hand without looking up at me, her head stuck in a book.
"Fine," She mumbled, munching the apple.

I hopped on the bench beside her.

I noticed something different about her.

"Hey!" I smiled, "You got the coat!"

She wore a black coat we picked out for her.

"Yeeah...I got it," Ashley grumpily said.

"What's freezing you?" I asked as the snow came tumbling down in clumps.
"Nothing, leave me be," Ashley mumbled.

"Okay, what's wrong!" I demanded walking round to face her.

"Nothing, go away!" She ordered, turning away, with the book up higher and hair covering her right side of the face.

I snatched the book out of her hands and chucked it.

"Hey! What's you're prob-" She began to shout at me, but I clappsed my hands over her freezing cold face.

I looked into her one brown eye.
'Something's not right!'

I pushed the hair covering her right eye to be shocked.

"Ashley! What happened!" I gasped.

Ashley's face screwed down. With her hand, she pushed my away.

"Don't. Call. Me. ASHLEY!" She screamed.

Her eye was black, purple, blue and red! It looked bad and it need an ice-pack or frozen meat on it.

"You need something on that." I told her.

"Leave me alone."She grumbled.

"I'm only trying to help."I slowly moved towards her, touching her elow.

"I said, leave, Me, BE!" She hissed, pulling her arm away.

"Wait!" I yelled at her.

"Just go away!" She then ran off. I wasn't sure if she was in tears or not. Probably not, it wasn't her style.

"Wait!" I called out running after her.

'Oh no, I'm not letting her get away this time!'

I ran faster and faster watching the girl with black hair.

'Come on TJ, remember what the little boy taught you when I was really young. Keep going, keep going, just keep going...'

I closed my eyes and pumped my legs harder. When I opened them and I saw Ashley turn a corner.

I turned the corner and hit something hard, knocking me to the ground.

I opened my eyes and looked up to see Gus looking down at me.

"TJ"He exclaimed.

"Gus," I said unexcitedly. He wasn't exactly the person I wanted to see.

"What are you doing down there?" Gus asked.

"It's cosey down here." I sarcastically said.

"Here," Gus rolled his eyes, holding out his hand giving me a hand up.

I reached out and held it with a firm grip.

"Thanks man," I said as I got up.

"No worries, who were you chasing?" Gus asked me, tilting his head suspiciously.

"What?" I asked confused.

"Are you late for something? Are you late for something? Are you meeting up with a girl and late?"

I blushed slightly.

"It's a girl?" Gus asked, smiling at me.

"Yes!" I said. "No! I don't know!" I put my hands to my eyes and rubbed them.

'Cool Teej old boy, just stay calm. It doesn't matter if Gus knows you're chasing after Ashley, even you know Gus will tell everyone and you'll be over.'

"Don't worry, I won't tell, is she hot?" He asked wanting the gossip.

'Don't worry, he said he wouldn't tell...which is just as bad as he'll probably torment you forever and tease you non-stop until you leave school...no worries'

"I don't know," I admitted.

"Does she have curves?" Gus asked.

I blushed. "Uh...all girls have curves...right?"

"Not all I mean, are the curves perfect, in line with each other or is one bigger than the other or are they really small or is she just flat."

"Why are you giving me names of girl's bodies?" I asked folding my arms.

"Because, we're good friends." Gus smiled putting an arm around my shoulder.

"I worry," I said straight after.

"Look, I just want to know what's she's like."
"FINE!" I yelled. "She's small this height with a perfect in line body that matches hers, none too big or too small, she has big and beautiful chocolate brown eyes with olive coloured skin and jet black hair!"
Gus thought for a moment. "Sounds too good to be true. By the description, she's really cute?"

I nodded like a reflex.

'Shoot! You did it TJ.'

"I mean...no...I mean...I don't know."
"You sound in love TJ." Gus grinned.

"I'm leaving." I marched off.

"Hey, remember to come tomorrow!" Gus yelled at me.

"Yeah, yeah." I waved off.

And with the closing chapter...

we sleep once more!
