Banking on Your Heart
The rest of that day past without much excitement and Thursday proved better yet. I mean more and more people were getting over the fact that Banks and I are dating. Today is now Friday and the school is a buzz with all the excitement about tonight's dance. Adam comes over again and watches the sunrise. Although I am not sure we really watched much of the sunrise since we ended up kissing more than we weren't.
Adam and I head over to join the Ducks for breakfast. Today Adam and I shock the rest because we don't sit near one another. Adam sits at the other end while Julie and Connie said on either side of me. Linda and Kim are sitting at our table too as is Lorena. Amy has joined our table now too since Fulton asked her out for tonight's dance.
"So Becky what did your mom think of the dress?" Connie asks. I went shopping with the other Duckettes last night to get our dresses for the dance tonight.
"Don't you mean what did her dad say?" Julie jokes.
"Actually Dad loved the dress but Mom was a bit more isn't that a bit too much for Adam to handle." I answer and the group of us laughs causing the guys to turn in our direction. I wave at Adam and he throws me a kiss before they go back to their conversation.
"Really interesting so what did you say to that?" Lorena who had been the one to find the dress for me now asks.
"I simply told her that Dad thought it was great and since he knows Banksie pretty well he could make that call."
"So Coach approved of the dress?" Kim asks.
"Not exactly after Mom pointed out it was Adam that I was going with to the dance." I respond but before they can ask any questions I continue on. "I asked them if this was more revealing than the one I wore Saturday night to the hospital benefit and both agreed it was actually better so they then agreed they thought it was perfect." We all laugh hard at this and again the boys turn to see what is going on.
"So we are going to meet at your house tonight after practice right?" Kim asks me.
"Yeah and then after the dance we are going to the Banks' house for the girls overnight. I was thinking of inviting Erica to join us because I was thinking she might be a good match for either Dwayne or Dean. What do you guys think of that?"
"That sounds great Becky." Amy says.
"I fully agree that she should be hanging out with us." Lorena chimes in.
The others quickly agree so I check my watch. "Hey guys I am going to go ask her right now. I will see you all at lunch alright?"
"Great Becky we will see you then." They all chorus together and once again the group of us break down in giggles.
I wheel over to were Erica is sitting. "Hey Becky!" She greets me as I wheel up.
"Hi Erica. Do you have a moment to talk?" I ask her.
"Sure I always have time for you Becky. Want to walk toward your first class while we talk?" Erica asks.
"That would be good." I tell her and after she says bye to her group she begins wheeling me to my classroom.
"So what is on your mind hun?" She asks me.
"Well I was wondering if maybe tonight you would like to go to an all girls sleep over."
"I would like that but who all will be there?"
"Well it would be the girls from the team and the girlfriends of the guys. Also we have about three moms going to be there but trust me they are very cool women."
"Sure when do you want me there and where exactly is this sleepover taking place?"
"We are going to go from the dance to the Banks' house. You can ride with us if you want." I tell her just as I see Adam approaching the class room.
"Great would love that."
"Oh and if you would like to join us in getting ready at my house we will be getting ready right after practice." I tell her.
"Cool I will meet you there then." She tells me just as Adam reaches us. She smiles at him. "You have a really awesome girlfriend." She says before taking off toward her class.
Adam and I head into class. The morning goes by so fast that I am beginning to wonder if I am still sleeping. At lunch the other girls convince Erica to join us. We talk about who has what accessories we can use to go with our dresses. "Erica, do you have a date to the dance?" Dwayne says in his cute southern drawl.
"Sadly no I don't but it's ok. Any chance you will save me a dance tonight?" She asks him.
Dean chimes in before Dwayne can answer. "I will even if he won't."
"I will save her a dance." Dwayne responds.
"Tell you what you both are on my dance card for the night." She responds with a wink.
We all laugh as Dean and Dwayne begin arguing about who she likes more. Les smiles at Kim and she smiles back knowing what he was about to say. "Guys Erica really likes me the best and don't you forget it. I mean sure I lost Becky to Banksie but I will not lose Erica to either of you goofballs."
"Hey wait a moment I thought you were dating Kim?" Dwayne says.
We laugh again as Les gently smacks himself in the head. "I knew I forgot something."
We continue joking around like always until it is time to head out to class. The rest of the day passes pretty uneventfully until the last period of the day.
Author Note: Erica thanks for the review and yes Dr. Shraker is gone for now but she may make an appearance later in order for her to learn a real lesson. Anyway sorry this chapter was so short everyone but I have just been having some rough times the last few days and actually told a friend I didn't want them as a friend any more but really I do want them as a friend. Ok you didn't need to know all that. I should run and try to write some more. Hugs to all. Joy
