*****LINDA'S POV*****
After I hung up the phone, I slid down the side of my counter and slumped down on my butt. I buried my head in my knees and started to cry. If I was so over Slash, then why do I feel like such an idiot? Why do I feel so stupid right now and regret everything I just said? Why am I not thinking about Jam anymore, but now thinking about how much I still really do like Slash.
I grabbed the phone. I started to call Jam. Maybe if I talked to him again, then maybe I would forget about liking Slash, and really think about liking Jam.
I dialed his number. "Hello?" he answered.
"Hey, its me, Linda."
"Hey what's up?"
"Nothing. So what are you doing today?"
"Nothin. How bout you?"
"Nothing."
"Oh. Well, um.. do you wanna go snowboarding. With me..?"
"Are you asking me out on a date?" I asked, laughing.
"Yeah, I guess."
"Well I guess we could go at umm probably 5. Because the night slopes open up. Those are so stellar!"
"Hey I haven't been to the new night slopes. Sounds cool. I'll come pick you up then at 4:45?"
"Sure. I'll see you then. Bye."
"Wait. Linda.."
"Yeah..?"
"Will you go out with me?"
"I thought you'd never ask."
"Cool. I'll see you then."
****Jam's POV****
She said yes. Omigod. She said YES!!! This is absolutely the best day in my entire life. Omigod! This is so perfect. I gotta call Slash and give him the good news. Now we both got dates for our school dance this year.
I dialed Slash's phone number.
"Hey.." said Slash.
"Hey man. You alright?"
"Not exactly peachy keen if you get what I'm sayin."
"Oh. Well what's wrong?"
"Well. Me and Nan broke up for one. And for two, I just poured my heart out to the person I am really really crushing on and yeah she totally blew me off like I was some piece of crap."
"Oh DANG that sucks really bad. Then I guess I shouldn't tell you. So I'll see you tomarrow."
"No. Tell me."
"I asked Linda out."
"You did WHAT?"
"I asked Linda out. What's so wrong with that?"
"Nothing. Just uhh I thought you didn't like her."
"Well I did. Well I mean I do. I just didn't tell anyone before because it would have just been weird. But I told her earlier today and then like two minutes ago I asked her out."
"Oh. Well what did she say?"
"YES!! Can you believe it?!? She said YES!"
"Hey man I'm happy for you."
"Thanks. See this why we best friends. You don't even care about how crappy your life is and you still are happy for me."
"GEE thanx MAN! For reminding me how crappy it really is..!" he said laughing.
"Well I didn't mean it like that. You know what I mean."
"Yeah I feel ya."
"Hey we are going to the night slopes tonight. You wanna come. I know that my sister is going. And she is kinda feeling you."
"She is?"
"UH YEAH! She has been for umm I don't know the past two years. But you're too stupid to realize it."
"Oh. Well I guess I'll go. She's aight I spose."
"Aight? Dude, if she wasn't my sister I'd hafta say she was hot."
"You are SICK!"
"YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!!"
He was literally falling on the floor laughing now. "Yeah I feel ya. Can you pick me up though. Around 4:45-4:50ish?"
"Sure. I'll see you later."
"Bye."
