Freddy wasn't excited about walking into school the next day. He was going to have to face Katie, the girl of his dreams, Celeste, the girl that had ruined everything, and the whole school. He walked into Kennedy and braced himself for the horrible day to come. The first person he saw as he walked down the hallway was Celeste. She was looking hot. She knew what she was doing too. By wearing the only outfit in her closet that could stop traffic, she was making Freddy realize what he had given up, and she loved it. Freddy wasn't going to look, if he did he would probably think about that kiss. That kiss didn't mean anything. Katie meant everything. And when he saw Katie walking towards him, he thought that maybe something actually might go right today.
"Hey Kate, I was thinking that maybe.."
She cut him off.
"Look", she said, "I'm not here to make small talk, or to even think about doing anything with you right now. The only reason I'm here is because we have something in common. We have to perform our songs, and I just wanted to tell you that it doesn't matter how many lovey dovey things you write in that song, this has turned into a competition, and my song will win." She looked him up and down. "That's about it. See you around."
And with that she turned and walked away. Freddy, left with his mouth open, could only watch.
That afternoon, Freddy returned home and played songs on his guitar. But he played one wrong chord after another, and thought maybe his drum set would work better at getting rid of some frustration. He knew it was all his fault that Katie was pissed at him, but he did think that he deserved a second chance. It was something that everyone deserved.
"But wait", he thought out loud, " if she wants to make this a competition then she's going to get one. That sappy song of hers will never beat mine. You just wait Katie, you just wait."
