(Kaylens house)
Kaylen snuck back into the house and up the stairs. As soon as she got up the stairs, she turned back around and bounded down them again. She bounced happily into the kitchen. The only people in there were her older brother, Brian, and his girlfriend, Stacey. Her mom and dad were both still at work. She sat down at her normal seat, next to the window, with Brian on her right, and Stacey straight across. Kaylen crossed her fingers and hoped that Stacey wouldn't say anything about Ricky. Is that too much to ask for? She thought.
"Soooo, Kaylen, where's your friend?"
I guess so.
"He had to leave."
"Oh, I'm sorry. So, why was he here, really? I didn't see any project work being done when I was up there."
"He was here to work on the project! But we didn't get anything done because we spent the whole time brainstorming!"
"Oh. Well. Is he coming over again?"
Kaylen sighed. She wasn't going to win this, so she decided to just not talk.
"What, so now you're gonna ignore me?" Stacey asked. Kaylen didn't respond.
"Stace, I think you're annoying her." Brian broke in. Kaylen nodded indignantly.
"Fine." Stacey said reluctantly. Then they all folded their hands and said grace. "Just ooooooone more question???" Stacey pressed. Kaylen decided that she wasn't going to win, and as long as it was just one question, it wouldn't hurt. And besides, if Stacey kept going, Brian would yell at her.
"Fine." Kaylen said. Brian gave her a look as if to say, "I can't believe you're letting her!"
"DO you think he's cute?" Of all the questions Kaylen had come up with in her mind, that was DEFINITELY not the one she had been expecting.
She had never really paid attention before. He was Ricky, the bad boy. Aside from being partnered together on a few projects here and there, she had never really talked to him. She knew it was stereotyping, but she had always thought that just because he dressed different and acted different than her that he was bad. One day hadn't been enough to totally change her views.
"No." Kaylen finally responded.
"Are you suuuuuure?" Stacey persisted.
What happened to her ' just oooooooone' question? Kaylen thought. But then again, when has Stacey asked only ONE question?
"Yes."
"Really...Cuz I thought he was rather cute." Stacey giggled. Then she seemed to realize that she was sitting next to her boyfriend, and said, "But not as cute as my Brian-Boo." She smiled, and Brian smiled back. For a few moments, they seemed to forget that Kaylen was there, and made eyes at each other.
"Ugh, could we please save the mush until AFTER I'm done eating?" Kaylen complained. Though she loved her brother, she hated it when him and Stacey were mushy at the dinner table. And that happened a lot. It wasn't that she thought it was gross, it just reminded her of how boyfriend-less her life had been lately. She had gone out with one guy this year, for a few weeks, but other than that, she had had no luck in the boy department this year. Usually it didn't bother her, but when she saw Brian and Stacey together, it reminded her of all the guys she had liked that hadn't liked her back.
"Okay, okay...time to eat." Brian said.
"Guys," Stacey said to Kaylen. "They can only think of one thing. Food." She giggled, and even though Stacey's jokes were usually stupid, this one had been rather cute, especially considering the look on Brian's face.
"I resent that!" Brian said jokingly. "We think of other things."
"Like...?" Kaylen wondered.
"How wonderful our girlfriends are." Brian replied, more to Stacey than to Kaylen.
Ugh, here we go again Kaylen thought.
The rest of dinner was rather uneventful. Kaylen was surprised that Stacey didn't say anything else about Ricky, but she was definitely not complaining. She only hoped that Stacey wouldn't be there the next day when he came over.
