The Note
Roxanne, and Adam were waiting outside the restaurant for their limo. The night was chilly so she hugged herself. Adam noticed, and put his arm around her. She looked at her watch.
"We're probably past curfew." Roxanne said.
"I hope you don't get into any trouble." she added.
As soon as she said that the limo pulled up. Adam opened the door for her, and they both got in.
"Yea my friend Guy got in trouble for coming late." he said. Roxanne coughed on her spit when she heard this.
"I can only imagine." she said.
"You should come to our game next week." he said.
"I don't think I should." she said. "You know...brother." she added.
"Oh yea." he said. "Well you should atleast meet my friends. You'd like them, and you'd get along with the girls." he said.
She smirked. "I dont know about that." she said. "Why don't you tell me a little about them." she suggested.
"Umm, ok where do I start?" he said. "Our captin is Charlie, he's always been. He's a cool guy, but he can be stubborn at times. There's these two guys called the Bash brothers, they have to be some of the craziest people I've ever met. Guy, and Connie they've been a couple since forever." he said.
"There's really no way to describe them. We just all make a great team, and so far nothing has really seperated us." he said.
She raised her eyebrows, and nodded. "What about your coach?" she asked.
"Oh well he can be strict, and stuff. I do prefer my old one, but what can you do right?" he said.
"Yea.." I said not really understanding.
The limo parked on the side walk next to the school, and they both stepped out.
"Maybe you shouldn't walk me to my room." she said when they were at the front door.
"I meen you shouldn't be any later than you are." she said. He nodded.
"You're right. Well Roxanne I had a lot of fun. You're a cool girl despite what people say." he said.
"What people say?" Roxanne asked.
"Well you know just the jealous ones I guess." he said. "I'll see ya maybe tomorrow." he said kissing her cheek. They both went inside, but ended up going into different directions to their different rooms. She walked down the hall. She repeated.
"People talk about me?" she thought.
It must be in a bad way too the way he said it. Yea that's what they are. Jealous people.
She stopped when she reached her room, and unlocked the door. When she opened it her two friends were reading, and doing homework on their beds.
"Hello ladies! Why are you guys doing homework? There's no school tomorrow." she said twirling into the room, and closing the door.
"We have a big essay exam when we get back remember?" Lori asked.
"So who was the guy tonight?" Alexa said not looking up from her chemistry book.
"Adam Banks." she sang.
"Guessing it went ok?" Alexa said finally looking up.
"Yep. I tried lettuce wraps, they were pretty good." Roxanne said plopping onto her bed.
"Where did you go?" Lori asked leaving her homework to sit, and listen to Roxanne.
"Cafe Des Amis." Roxanne said in her best french accent.
"Ooh la la." Lori said. Roxanne rolled her eyes.
"Do me a favor, and don't do that again." Roxanne said getting up, and taking off her outfit.
"You went to Cafe Des Amis, and all you had were lettuce wraps? Interesting." Alexa asked. Roxanne ignored her comment.
"I have to give you props Roxanne. I don't know what you did to Guy, but he is so over Connie, and so on you." Lori said.
"Yea what exactly did you do?" Alexa asked putting her pencil down.
"Boys...you just have to listen to them that's all. Pretend like they are the only thing that matters." Roxanne said.
"You sound like a guy yourself." Alexa said picking up her pencil, and writing again.
Thank god there's no school today, Roxanne thought. She woke up, and feeling like a fatass from the night before she decided to take a jog. She had been so busy with "other things" that she forgot a lot of the stuff she used to do. She grabbed her sweats, an Old Navy hoodie, and walked out the room looking like a wannabe Rocky. She turned around when she heard a door near her closing.
"Feeling better aren't we?" Connie asked passing her.
Why do we always come out at the same time! Roxanne thought.
"Well now that you ask my back is a little sore," Roxanne said smiling, and walking in theopposite direction. Two guys passed her, but she kept walking till one of them called her out. She turned around slowly.
"Hey um remember me? I'm Adam's friend?" he asked. She didn't realize who it was until she saw the red hair, and then remembered the glasses.
"Oh yea." Roxanne muttered. "This is another one of the hockey guys Goldberg." he said introducing his large friend. Roxanne smiled at them both.
"I never knew Rick could have such a hot sister." Goldberg said.
"Nice to see you guys, but I gotta go." she said turning back around.
"Wait! Do you know where Kayla's room is?" he asked randomly.
"Who?" she said turning around so hard she hurt her neck.
"This girl Kayla. We're supposed to give this to her." Goldberg said pulling out a note.
"But I guess you don't know her." they said about to walk away. She took one giant leap, and she was so close she was breathing on him.
"I know Kayla. Yea yea she's a close friend actually. I'll give it to her." she said. Goldberg pulled out the note again.
"Tell her it's from Guy." She snatched it from her hands.
"Yea I'm uh gonna see her like in ten minutes actually. I'll be sure to give it to her." she said running down the hall. She went down the stairs, and turned into the girls bathroom. She opened the note in a hurry, and read to herself.
'Hey Kayla, I know it's sorta corny that I'm writing you a note. And I apologize I sent it with some weird people. Let's see I think about you almost everyday. Too bad I don't see you as much as I would like. Anyways I've been thinking a alot about what you told me, and you're right. Well you know I like you alot. I love the way you make me feel important. I was wondering if you wanted to go out again. Guy'
Roxanne looked up from the letter with a huge smile on her face.
"Yes!" she screamed through the bathroom. Some girls stopped washing their hands, and looked over at her.
"What?" Roxanne said folding the note, and skipping out the bathroom.
