Chapter 3

All Grown Up

Summer's POV

Pushing back a lock of her hair, Summer finished writing down the answer to number 38 on her math test. She decided to take a 2 minute break, and glanced around the room.

Tomika was hunched over her test, probably hard at work. Zack was playing the guitar in the air, so he was obviously finished. Freddy had his head laid down on his desk. Gordon had his laptop open, and was taking the test on there. Marco looked confused. Katie was glancing around, her hair swinging every which way. Alicia was mouthing a song. Marta looked uncomfortable, Michelle's seat was empty. (A/N: Any guess where she might be???) Frankie was staring ahead. Eleni had a look of sadness on her face and Billy was drawing.

Summer smiled, and looked back onto her test. 'If Train A went at 24 miles per hour and Train B went at 26, when would they meet?' Summer thought, and shook her head, confused. She wrote down what she thought was the answer, and went on to the last question, 40.

'If Isaac Impost had a gallon of ice, and Sarah Salmon had ΒΌ of quart of salsa, how much did they have together of salsa and ice?' Summer did the math, and wrote down the answer, just as the bell rang.

"Pass your tests up, please," said the math teacher, Mrs. Creech. The class did so, and stood up to leave. They pretty much hated math, as it was the first bell of the day.

"Summer, wait up!" called Katie, running after Summer, her hair flying behind her. Summer turned around, just as Katie caught up with her.

"Did ya here? Dewey's littlest sister is coming to our practice!" Katie exclaimed happily, her brown eyes shining. Summer's mouth formed into a bright smile, and then asked how Katie knew.

"Oh...Zack told me," Katie said, smiling. They laughed, as Zack always told Katie his news first. The girls talked for awhile, until the bell rang for next period. Katie rushed off in the opposite direction Summer went, running to French class, as Summer went to her Spanish. She heard someone calling for her again, and turned around to see Freddy running towards her. Summer then noticed he had a black eye and a bruise on his cheek.

"What happened?" Summer asked as soon as Freddy came up to her. Freddy's cheeks turned a bright red.

"Got in a fight with some high school kids," Freddy muttered. Summer knew that it wasn't true, but didn't press the issue any further.

"Got band practice today?" Freddy asked, clearly changing the subject. Summer nodded.

"Bye, Summer," Freddy said, walking away as Summer walked into Spanish. Summer went to her seat, and sat down, waiting for class to begin.

..................................................................

"Summer! What on EARTH are you WEARING?" exclaimed Alicia at lunch, staring at Summer's outfit. Summer was wearing a yellow, black, red, and blue plaid mini-skirt and a red tank top. On her feet were high heels that were gold.

"Oh, a little something I picked up at Hot Topic," Summer said nonchalantly. Alicia still gaped at her revealing outfit.

"Omigosh! Here comes Freddy!" exclaimed Michelle, who had come out of nowhere. Michelle was right. Freddy was walking over to the girls' table. Michelle jumped up and smiled.

"Hi, Freddy," Michelle greeted flirtatiously, batting her eyelashes. Freddy stared at her strangely.

"Uh, Michelle, do you have something in your eye?" Freddy asked, staring at Michelle. Michelle shook her head, embarrassed, then she stormed out of the lunch room, everyone laughing.

"I didn't know I was so hilarious," Freddy joked. Then he got serious.

"Umm...Tomika..." Freddy stammered, staring at Tomika. Tomika looked up at the sound of her name.

"I need to ask you something..." Freddy's voice trailed off as Tomika stood up, her skirt falling. They walked to the empty side of the cafeteria, everyone watching.

"I wonder what Freddy's asking Tomika?" Katie wondered. Everyone else agreed.

The girls watched as Freddy's cheeks turned red, then pink, then red again, then go back to normal. The girls eyed Tomika as she walked back to the table.

"What'd he ask?" Summer asked, staring into Tomika's eyes. Tomika's mouth made a little smile.

"He asked me out."

TBC? Sorry so short, I'm going by one person per chapter.
