Alli
"So, then do you wanna go to the dot or something later?" he asked.
"HEY Alli," Spinner said walking up. "Hey..Jimmy," he also said, uneasily.
"Um hey Spin. So how bout it, Alli?" Jimmy said.
"Sure. Sounds good. But I want to hit the pipe for a bit today first, is that okay?" I answered, totally blowing off Spinner.
"Great. Hey how bout I just meet you at the dot in an hour and a half or something?" Jimmy asked, "oh and your welcome for paying for your admission," he added, laughing.
"Okay THANKS. See you then," I said, laughing, as Jimmy walked away.
After Jimmy walked away, I started to get back to what I was doing. Spinner stopped me. "Look, Alli.."
"What? What do you want Spinner?" I said, showing as much anger as I could.
"I'm sorry! It's complicated." He said.
"That's so stupid. I don't want to hear it."
"Alli, don't be like this. I understand that you're upset, but I didn't think that you liked me like that. If I didn't, I wouldn't have been messing around with Paige," he said, pleadingly.
"And WHAT makes you SOO sure that I like you like that? Hmm?" I said, trying to sound like I didn't like him.
"Well, I just sort of assumed that you did, by the way you reacted.."
"YEAH well you assumed wrong! The only reason I was upset was because I thought we were friends. And you are a two faced LOSER! You talk bad about me to her and talk bad about her to me. I don't ever want to talk to you unless I have to because of soccer business or for school."
"Please, Alli. I.. I.."
"YOU YOU what? What are you trying to say Spinner?" I said, making fun of his stutter.
"Nothing. Nevermind. I didn't think you were going to be such a bitch about it. But whatever. Fine," he said, walking away.
"Spin, WAIT!" I said calling after him.
"My name's Gavin. Only my friends call me Spinner," he said in a low voice, not even turning back to look at me.
Spinner
As I was walking out of the skatepark, the admission's doorman said, "That went smooth."
"Whatever man. Chicks these days," I said, stopping to talk to him.
"My name's Miles," he said.
"Spinner."
"You go to Degrassi?" he asked me.
"Yeah," I said studying him. He had green hair, and an eyebrow piercing, along with a lip ring on the side of his bottom lip. He looked pretty cool. "Do you go there?" I asked him.
"Nah. I graduated last year."
"Oh, that's cool."
"Yeah. Hey well listen, my cousin and her friend go to Degrassi. Do you know Emma Nelson and Manny Santos?" he asked me.
"Yeah. Sure do."
"Well Emma's my cousin. But uh, I know a pretty good way that you could get that girl jealous."
"Who.. Alli?" I asked.
"YEAH!" he said, sarcastically.
"Oh. Well, I don't care about her. I just met her."
"You're such a liar. Anyway, do you wanna hear my plan?"
"Sure," I said, not exactly caring, but still a little interested.
"I heard through the grapevine that my cousin's little friend Manny likes you. I mean, if you're Spinner MASON that is."
I laughed. "Uh yeah."
"Well, maybe you should ask Manny out. 'Cause, she isn't half bad, and that would drive Alli crazy. I mean, if she's feelin' you anyway."
"You know, that might not be a bad idea," I said, half hoping that it would work.
"Here's her digits. Hit her up," he said, casually.
"Sure man," I said pulling out my cell phone. I dialed her number.
"Hello?" said a young girl's voice.
"Is, uh.. Manny there?" I asked.
"This is her. Who's this?" she said, sounding disinterested.
"This is Spinner."
"Spinner? HEY what's up?" she said, sounding like she found a million dollars.
"Nothing. Hey I was wondering if you wanted to go to the Dot today. In say, a half an hour?"
"SURE!" she answered.
"So, then do you wanna go to the dot or something later?" he asked.
"HEY Alli," Spinner said walking up. "Hey..Jimmy," he also said, uneasily.
"Um hey Spin. So how bout it, Alli?" Jimmy said.
