A/N- I don't Own RFR. I own Dana...and no, it's not about me! She may have my name, but she's (Slightly) different from me, so Ha:-p

Chapter 2- Much Better!

11/21/04

Wonder where I went yesterday after mom told me to go out and explore Roscoe? I went shopping. Yep, shopping at little boutiques and it was fun! I like spending my parents' cash on stuff. I got me some new shoes, a cute top, some skirts…lots of jewelry. I'm such a girl.

Well, back to the grind. Today was actually good, really good because Robbie kept talking to me today. It started when I went to my locker and he walked over, being all suave, and cool. I didn't mind it. My hair was down, my skin was clear (for once!), I was wearing the cute red top with my favorite jeans, and I was ready to for anything. Of course, I always feel that way before something real dumb happens. Anyway, I was near my locker, being a complete neat freak and organizing everything, when I heard his voice…oh, what a voice.

"Hey, Dana." He simply said. Simplicity rocks, man.

"Hi, Robbie." I said, trying to act all cool, although it was a lie. I was really freaking out, but I'm smart, I don't let him see it.

"So, what's up?"

"The sky, the roof, my grades, your grades…I hope."

"Oh, don't worry about my grades. They're fine."

"Fine by me. Just saying."

During this exchange, I didn't even look at him. Finally, I moved from my locker so he can see my lovely face.

"Oh, I thought I was talking to your locker all this time."

"Sorry. It's just me. I know you're disappointed."

"No, not really. It's nice to see your face, to be honest." Yep, he was so flirting with me. I'm like, so fly!

"Well, it's nice to see yours, too." Yep, I flirted back. I rock.

"So, what are doing in there, anyway?"

"Making it work for me. I like some order in my life."

"That's cool." This was the turning point, when I started asking about him. I'm curious; I wanted to know about him.

"So, I was wondering what's up with you?"

"Nothing much. Just waiting for the bell to ring…in five minutes." OK, I can make a little more progress, ask him some questions, and hope they work, or stay silent and work on my locker.

"OK. I can help you with that. Anything interesting I should know about you?"

"Whoa, being quite forward, are you?"- He was smirking saying that, and oh, was that cute, too! OK, I'll stop swooning.

"Yes, Robbie. Now answer the question, or I'll cry."

"Fine, don't cry. What's interesting about me? I like indie music, bad jokes, and Torpedo."

"Oh, I know that game! I'm good, man!" I surprised him a lot by saying that.

"Really? We should play a game together, if you're up for it."- Robbie.

"Is that a challenge?"-Me.

"Yes, it is."-Him.
"Fine by me. Just be prepared to lose." –Me. Right about now we were pretty close; not make out close, but close.

"OK, my turn. Anything interesting about you, besides cotton candy and bad movies?" he said, smiling that lovely smile I was falling for. I hate crushes! I went out on a limb this time.

"OK. I'm awesome." OK, not that much of a limb! He got the joke, though.

"Well, I guess I have to take your word for it since we don't each other that well."

"We will, though. I have a feeling we will."

"Fine by me. Well, class is going to start, so…"

"See you later, man!"

We both went off to class, me with a big smile on my face.

I went to class, and learned stuff. Yeah, so exciting. Also, I just realized I have a class with Robbie! I was so busy (sleeping) yesterday, I haven't noticed. We have study hall together. Coolio! Anyway, I went to lunch to hear Miss Parker call my name.

"Parker, I hear you, girl! I'm coming." I yelled back to her, walking over. Guess what? My seat today was right next to…well, you can guess. I sat down and said hello to all who was seated, because I'm cool like that. I looked at Parker who grinned at me. She saw us, then! Note to Self- Tell her thank you! I can't write the whole conversation I had with everyone, but I can say this- Ray thinks I can beat Robbie in Torpedo, Travis beat him a lot, and Lily is already starting bets. Of course, Robbie kept saying he would win. Doubt it! Losing to a girl will suck for him and rock for me!

Now, let's talk about my encounter with Ed and Ted. I was about to walk out of the school after classes let out when I bumped into two people. I'm a human target, I'm learning. Anyway, we all fell and they got up, I got up, no big deal. For them, it kinda was.

"Edward, are you ok?"- Ted

"Yes, Theodore, I am. Are you ok?"- Ed

"Yes, I am. Now, what about the experiment?"-Ted

"It's ok!"-Ed. Then they finally looked at me and asked if I was fine.

"I'm ok, don't worry." I said, looking at the two gentlemen with their little 'experiment', a shoe box in one of their hands. Since I'm quite desperate for friends, I introduced myself.

"I'm Dana. Nice shoebox."

"I'm Ed, and this is my partner, Ted. It's nice of someone to appreciate our genius." Yep, they're brains…like me, only I'm a girl, therefore I'm cute. Anyway, we started talking about the experiment, a little starter radio that could get international stations and I mean…international! They could get Z100 on there! Soon, I realized that they are actually pretty cool dudes, but I'm not super sure. I just met them! We all left school and they invited me to Mickey's. I called my mom on my cell, asked if I could go, and she told me 'Homework first!' Oh, Charlie Brown! I told the boys I'll be there later, and went home, did my work and left here with you. Yep, you're on a field trip. I'm risking my secrets getting found out, but whatever. I'm sly. They will never know! Anyway, I'll have to cut this short, since E and T are singing karaoke. It's funny. Oh, Parker's here…with everyone else. See ya!
