Chapter 5: Inside Natalie
Natalie wished that she could, for once, get the guy, especially this guy, because she thought she was in love. Natalie cried herself to sleep that night. She dreamed of a wedding, with lots of red roses and a big three-tiered white wedding cake with plenty of pink frosting flowers, and lots of family and friends, dancing and chatting happily. Natalie figured it was her own wedding that she was dreaming about, the guy at the end of the aisle was Greg, but instead of seeing herself strolling down the aisle in that white dress, she saw Ally. ..........................................................................................
It was twelve-thirty in the afternoon and Natalie still hadn't woken up from her subtle nightmare. She finally awoke to the sound of her mother's gentle yet firm voice. "Honey, its time to wake up." The thirteen year old girl turned toward her mother and stared, then looked at the digital clock next to her hotel bed. Twelve-thirty?! How could it already be twelve thirty? My hair is a mess, and I only have thirty minutes to get ready! I don't even have......... The thoughts flew through Natalie's head. She dashed out of the bed and into the bathroom of their small suite to get ready for the pool party. This day had to go perfectly if Natalie wanted to win Greg over. She shuttered as she remembered what happened last time she wanted things to go perfectly with a guy.
..............FLASHBACK..........
Natalie was walking down one of the many boring hallways of Thomas Jefferson Middle School, when she saw something that gave the hallway a radiance: Josh Winston, the class hottie. Josh was a guy she had liked for a few weeks and she decided that someway, somehow, she would get him to notice her. For days Natalie and her best friend , Hannah, the most popular girl in school, planned the perfect way for Natalie to walk, smile, and look cool all at the same time. This was one thing that was truly hard for Natalie to accomplish. What drove her to do these silly walking and smiling lessons is that maybe, she would get a smile from Josh, and that smile would lead to talking to him. All she wanted was to get a flash of those perfect white teeth of Josh's and she would be floating on a cloud. When Hannah decided that Natalie had mastered the art of walking and smiling, they made a plan. Natalie had 2nd period Art in the East wing of the 6th grade building and Josh had 1st period Art in the same place, meaning they would almost have to pass each other in the hallway, meaning that Natalie could use her newly learned "skills" to get her a quick display of those twinkling teeth and maybe a short conversation. Hannah decided that the sooner they did it the better, so the plan was for the next morning.
The morning of her "walk-and-smile" Natalie wore her favorite outfit, a light blue shirt with her sister's band name, Lotus, on it, a distressed jean mini-skirt, and black converse sneakers. Her dark brown hair was up in two buns at the top of her head with black chopsticks through both of them. Personally, she thought she looked great. She felt great too, she was confident, and she was definitely ready to impress Josh. First period seemed to last forever, right now Natalie didn't care about converting fractions to percentages, she just wanted to talk to Josh. Finally the eternity that they call first period math was over, and Natalie walked to Art. She ran into an eager Hannah on the way there, so she decided to let her walk with her in her moment of glory. Then, Natalie and Hannah saw him, Josh was standing right there! Natalie was walking over to him looking especially cool, when she tripped over her own foot. HER OWN FOOT! Thankfully she caught herself before she fell completely on her face but as she looked up she found a laughing Josh. "Nice going, Klutz." Josh laughed hysterically and rolled his eyes. Hannah ran over to console Natalie, but she had already started to bawl. ........................End Flashback.....................
Natalie shivered. That was not happening again. Natalie slipped on her green and white plaid bikini, put her hair into French Braids, put on her green flip flops and was ready to go, and this time she was not screwing it up.
