Debate
Tori walked through the door of the nurse's office and watched from the window as the popular motocross racer slowly walked back to math. She seated herself on the red chair in the little waiting room but decided against it and ran to the library. She began to type the English and saved it to a disk to take home.
When the lunch bell rang, she ran to meet Dustin outside the cafeteria. He always stopped to talk with some friends before he went in. And he liked to let the line die down for food. She leaned against the door and soon after, Dustin appeared in her view. She walked over to him, bag slung over her shoulder, and tapped his shoulder. He turned around and looked at her.
"I thought you went home sick." Dustin stated confused.
"I went to the library to get my English started on. Can you give me a ride to the dance tonight?"
"Uh sure." Dustin answered.
"And no matter what I say, drag me to that stupid dance, okay?"
"Okay, no problems there." Dustin smirked.
"Without touching me or hitting me with any heavy objects." Tori replied.
"Fine."
The two friends went and found Shane seated at a table. Tori flipped open her cell phone and read the message that was signaling earlier. It read: I know you know who I am but I still don't know you. Please meet me for sure under the disco ball at ten. If you don't show, I'll find you one way or another and don't worry about Mel, her hair is brown and yours is blonde, I can't wait to look into those blue eyes of yours and finally know who you are. Love always Broken Soul (Hunter B.)
Tori smiled at the note and replied with a simply 'Be right back' so she could eat with her friends then head off into her own world for a while. Her heart was skipping beats and she felt as though she owed it to the motocross rider to meet him and prove to him that she wasn't that great.
"Hey guys." Shane greeted them.
"Hi, I'm going to have to cut this a bit short, I have a huge English project due tomorrow and if I'm going to the dance, I should finish it." Tori explained.
"Okay, I just wanted lunch and to say that I'm sorry for everything I did to you guys, I mean, leaving just to be popular which isn't all that great now that I've lived it."
"It's totally okay, I mean I would've done the same thing if I were you dude, I just wasn't accepted as one of them." Dustin replied.
"I wouldn't, I hate people who act like something they're not." Tori interrupted.
"So, maybe you'll give me a dance tonight?" Shane asked.
"Sure." Tori smiled.
She walked off and began to talk to 'Broken Soul' even though she knew who he was, it was the name he gave himself and she intended to keep it that way until their meeting. That way he wouldn't think it was unfair if she used Permanent State.
Broken Soul: How's lunch?
Permanent State: You could say it was great or you could say it was good:)
Broken Soul: Hey, do you know 'Diner Girl'?
Permanent State: Quite well:)
Broken Soul: Isn't she cool, I mean, she doesn't care about what anyone says and she's just her own person, are you anything like that?
Permanent State: Yeah, but she cares more than you think
Broken Soul: Yeah?
Permanent State: I was talking to her the other day and she told me that she just wanted to be like an average teen, not having to worry about the bills or having to work all the time, she misses out on a lot, I mean, she was confused about the dance. She's still debating whether or not to go. Hey, if you see her there, will you spare her a dance?
Broken Soul: I was going to anyways
Permanent State: You know, my assumption used to be all popular people were jerks but you're different:)
Broken Soul: I know but I didn't make myself that way, other people did
Permanent State: True, sorry, I got to go, fourth-
Broken Soul: I know, fourth period:)
