regain confidence and get over the flu x_x
Chapter Two
(Travis POV)
"Hey Trav, who was that girl you were with?" Robbie asked me with a punch in the arm. "If you don't want her, I'll take her, she was cute. Oh yeah, forgot, you've got Audrey." My eyes narrowed, Robbie was so right. I hated when he was right.
"Robbie, I know I've got Audrey. And I know Charly is a nice kid. But that's it. A nice kid! Okay?" He rolled his eyes as we strolled into Science.
"Of course she is, Trav, of course." He laughed casually as Ray pulled up a chair near us.
"Who's nice? Should I know?" He grinned, hoping to get in on our secret. I held my breath, remembering Buddha's words of wisdom, staying calm, serene. And Robbie and Ray got into their own conversation.
"Robbie, my God! Girls with blonde hair are way better than those red- heads. Sheesh." Ray argued.
"Oh please, you only think that cause Lily has blonde hair! Have you seen Charly? She has red-hair. One word for her, 'wow'." Robbie laughed when he saw my expression. I guess I looked pretty hopeless, baffled. What? Charly wasn't Robbies, but wait, why was I defending her? Not like she was mine either.
"Right. Wow" I mumbled, but obviously someone heard me and I looked up the next second and she was there. The cutest girl, in her own little way. Charly. Pathetically I sighed, but it seemed normal because Audrey was with her.
AUDREY?! With Charly? How did they know each other? Wait. since when was Audrey in my science class. or Charly? My mind buzzed and Audrey gave me a kiss on the forehead.
"Hey Travis! This is Charly, she is new from New York." She laughed, "Get it? New, New York? Heehee, sorry, stupid joke! Anyways, I was told by Waller to give her a little tour, shes really nice. And Travis, get this! She is in your science class, so be nice!" Then with a snicker, "But not too nice! We are going out, you know." She smiled and gave me a hug around the neck and left. I just stared, stunned.
"H-hi Travis! Funny seeing you here!" She was so nervous, obviously flirting, even I could see that. Robbie and Ray mocked my look of surprise behind her back. How I loathe them, yet, they were alright. So, like I was saying. She sat beside me and flipped back her shoulder-length red hair.
That's when I noticed her face. Freckles, cute little dawn-colored freckles. Not like the honking-big ones you see sometimes. Then her eyes. As Robbie said, 'wow'. They were beautiful, a blue one on the right a green one on the left. With specks of yellow, brown, every color. For a second I just watched her get stuff out of that binder.
"Um, Travis?" She softly tapped me and my mind jolted to reality. I had a girlfriend, Charly could stay a friend, for goodness sakes I just met her twenty minutes ago! "Who is the teacher here? Is he mean? I always sucked at science." She looked up at me with her big eyes full of. Full of more things she wanted to say than she could. Full of curiousity, hope, love?
As I told her, I knew I had to get to know her better. Whether Audrey had to know or not.
