*** Chapter 13. This is an Addie/Jason & friends chapter. ***
"See ya after school Addie!" Pony called as he headed down the senior hallway.
Waving I stopped at my locker. Spinning the lock I opened the door, pulling books out I noticed an envelope. "What the..." I murmured pulling it out. Addie Mitchell was written on the front.
Setting my book bag on the floor I opened the envelope. The letter read:
Hey Addie,
I wanted to ask if ya would like to toss the pigskin with us during lunch. If so come by the football field. Hope ya join us. Jason
Smiling I folded the note and put it into my bag. Checking my watch I realized that there were only a few minutes until the final morning bell. Shouldering my bag I shut my locker and jogged down the hall. Turning the corner I came face to face with the boys who had jumped me the night before.
"Well, well, well. Look who it is boys." He turned to his buddies. "We're not finished with ya just yet." He added punching me in the face without warning.
Stumbling I braced myself against the lockers. "Let's get out of here. There's a teacher comin'." One kid said frantically.
Without another word the group of boys left. The final bell rang as I reached the classroom. "You're late Miss Mitchell. Do you have a hall pass?" My teacher, Mr. Cooper asked.
"No sir, I don't have a pass." I replied slipping into my seat.
The morning passed quickly. When the lunch bell rang I ran outside to the football field where the guys were waiting.
"Hey Addie, you ok?" Jason asked gesturing to my new bruise. Who hit ya?" He added.
"Ah... I'm ok..." I paused looking for the right words. "Those punks found me in the hall..." I quickly responded. "Don't worry about it guys, ready to play football?" I asked changing the subject.
They all nodded; splitting into teams we tossed a coin and began to play.
*** Sorry about another short chapter. Writer's block, next chapter will hopefully be longer. R&R! ***
