Not Easy-Chapter 1
I walked down the halls towards my locker. I needed to find Zach so that we could get back home; Mr. Mosbey needed me and Zach to fill in for a couple waiters at the restaurant. I opened my locker and threw what books I didn't need into the bottom and quickly shut my locker, twisting the combo lock to zero; a habit I had gotten into in freshman year. As I walked down the stairs I noticed her again. She was sitting with her back against the brick wall, singing slightly to herself. From what I could hear she had a beautiful voice. It was nice to know that people shared the same talent as my mom. As I walked towards my car I noticed Zach and Max leaning against the car, kissing. I grimaced.
"Could you guys kiss somewhere else?" I growled as I threw my backpack into the trunk, along with my other books. Max giggled and pulled away from her boyfriend.
"I'll see you later tonight, lover." Max pressed a chaste kiss to her boyfriend's lips and then kissed me on the cheek. "Bye, Cody."
"Bye, Max." I watched her leave and then turned to my brother, "Get in the car." I got into the driver's seat and started the car, waiting for Zach to get in and situated.
"So Max said her father might sell me a nice car." Zach commented as I switched lanes and stepped on the accelerator.
"That's nice." I noticed a red light and slammed on the brakes. "Shit." I took my hands on the wheel and looked through the windshield. I hated this light; it took ten minutes to turn green again. I noticed the girl from biology and watched her. She was walking down the street towards a small store.
"Uh, Cody…the light's green." I snapped out of my reverie and stepped on the gas and took a right turn towards the Tipton Hotel. I pulled into the employing parking lot and stopped the car. I watched as Zach got out, "Dude, what's your problem today. You're all, like," He stopped to make some gestures with his hands, "Twilight zony."
"Nothing just distracted." I shrugged. Zach nodded.
"Alright, man." He grabbed his bag and closed the door. I let my head fall in front of me only to jump suddenly at the sound of a horn. Sure enough I had allowed my head to fall onto the horn. I shook my head and took my keys from the ignition and got out of my car. Locking it, I trudged up the stairs and walked into the lobby.
"Good news, Cody! We don't have to work!" I looked at my twin brother.
"That's great. Now you and Max can go off and do whatever." I walked towards the elevator.
"Wow, Cody, what's wrong with you today? You really are out there." I gave my brother a sideways glance. "Ok, ok I won't ask you about it anymore." We got off at our floor and opened the door to our suite.
"Hi boys, how was your day?" Mom handed us a plate of chocolate cake, each.
"Eh, it was ok." I dropped to the couch and turned on the TV to accompany in my eating of cake.
"It was great. Max and I are going on a date tonight, I gotta go get ready." Mom and I watched as Zach rushed to our room to get ready for his date.
"Cody, sweetie, what's wrong?" Mom sat next to me and looked at me.
"Eh…nothing." I flipped the channel to something a little more interesting. The phone rang and mom got up to get it. She soon came back with the phone pressed to her shoulder.
"Honey, it's for you." She looked down at me with a questioning look. I grabbed the phone with a thank-you, to my mother, before pressing my ear to the receiver.
"Hello?" I answered automatically.
"Cody, this is Mr. Mosbey. You have a visitor, should I send her up or do you want to come down and meet her?" Mr. Mosbey's voice floated through my ears.
"I'll come down. Thanks Mr. Mosbey." I hung up the phone and set my cake on the table. I pulled back on my sweatshirt. "I'll be back in a minute, mom." I opened the door and closed it with a slight slam.
I reached the lobby in a matter of minutes; it was actually a safe haven after being locked in an elevator for five minutes with about five smelly old guys. I walked to the front desk where Mr. Mosbey was conversing with a person with shirt blond hair. "You said I had a visitor, Mr. Mosbey?" I stood to the side of Mr. Mosbey.
"Ah, Cody, yes. Here she is." The person turned around and sure enough it was the girl from biology.
"Uh…Hi, Cody. You dropped your history books in the parking lot. I thought I'd come and give them to you." She held out my books to me.
"Oh, thanks Eve." I smiled and took the books from her. I noticed Mosbey giving me a look, I sighed knowing what he wanted. "Would you like to come up to my suite and get something to drink, maybe I can fish out those biology notes that you needed."
"Sure, if it's not too much." She smiled shyly at me.
"Of course, come on." I led her to the elevator and up to my home.
Later, after Eve had left, I was sitting at the front desk with Mosbey.
"Personally, I think she has a small crush on you, Cody." Mosbey smiled at me.
"That would be weird though." I shrugged and played with a pen.
"I don't know. She's a very pretty girl, and very much like you." Mosbey smiled at me.
"Thanks. See ya." I walked back to the elevator and headed back to my room.
I walked into my history class and noticed that Eve was sitting in the back. She wasn't in my class, was she? I sat down in my assigned seat, which happened to be next to hers.
"Hey Eve. I didn't know you're in this class!" I grinned at her. She smiled weakly back at me.
"I just transferred." She offered.
"I see." I watched as other students began filing in and filling the seats. Max and Zach came in, holding hands and laughing over some joke. Zach sat next to me.
"Hey, little bro! What's up?" He smiled.
"I only just saw you forty five minutes ago." I said blankly.
"Alright." Zach turned and began conversing with Max again. I saw Tapeworm come and in front of Max. We nodded to each other in acknowledgment. I looked over to Eve, her head was down, pencil in hand, and was leaving marks on the paper in front of her. I could not figure out if it was a drawing or writing. However my curiosity was not peaked and decided to let it alone.
Sitting in the back of class, passing notes with Eve, was actually quite amusing. We got caught several times, but continued none the less. I found that she had a great sense of humor; she was a musician and spent as much time as possible away from her home. It was quite interesting. The most interesting thing of all was when I found myself inviting her over to go over the history notes for the test, next class. She smiled over at me and agreed to it. On the side of the paper I found her cell phone number and as the teacher assigned us the class work I put the number in my own cell phone, giving her my number.
I watched her put my number in her cell phone, a small smile gracing her lips. It was nice to see her smile; she had such a pretty one. I looked over at Zach and noticed that he, Max and Tapeworm were watching us. Max had a smile on her face, Tapeworm: a confused look. Zach had such a perplexed look, on his face that I had to fight back the urge to laugh. I quickly turned back to my work and opened my large history book.
As class let out I held back with Eve. After she finished talking to the teacher we walked the halls together.
"Where do you want to meet after school?" I looked over at her.
"How about the stairs. I see you go down them everyday." I saw her cheeks take on a slightly pink color.
"Alright. I'll see you later." I waved and walked down a different hall, towards my locker.
"So, Cody, who's she?" I closed my locker to find Zach leaning, casually, against the next one.
"She's a girl, incase you haven't noticed." I glared and walked out into the parking lot.
"I noticed she's a girl. I also noticed that you seem to be with her a lot. She's in English, she's in Bio, and now she's in History! What's next, free hour!" Zach's hands were making wild motions.
Sure enough she was in free hour with us. However, she quickly left and headed for the music wing. I was slightly tempted to follow. I was looking for an excuse to go when I remembered the Max practiced her singing during free hour. Zach really didn't like accompanying her down the music wing and always found some reason as to why he couldn't go. I walked over to Max.
"Hey, Max. Would you like me to walk you down to the music hall?" I asked innocently.
"Sure! Thanks Cody. Zach is never around when I head down. He's in the bathroom or helping Tapeworm with something." Max began walking and I sped up to follow her. We soon reached the class room. Max peaked in. "Oh! She's here already. Maybe I'll get to listen to her." Max grabbed my arm and pulled me into the door that was close to the door I thought she would go in.
"Max?" I looked at her but was quickly shushed.
"Shh. Listen." She nodded through the window. Eve was in there! She was on the piano. I watched as she took a breath and began to sing. I was entranced immediately. I was disappointed when the song ended, but she had ended it on such a beautiful note.
"Can't she see us?" I looked over to Max.
"One sided window, bud. We can see her, but she can't see us. Come on." She grabbed me and dragged me out of the room. "Thanks for walking me down here, Cody." Max smiled.
"No problem." I smiled back and walked down the hall to put my English books away in my locker.
"Eve!" I hustled up to the blonde.
"There you are; I was looking for you. I was afraid you'd forgotten!" She smiled gently at me.
"Yeah well, I almost forgot myself." I smiled shyly and scratched at the back of my head. I felt my stomach lift as I heard her giggle.
"Come on, you, we need to get studying." I nodded and led her to my car. She whistled at the sight of it. "Nice car, Cody Martin." I opened the door and held it open as she daintily stepped in. I was about to back out when someone knocked on my window. I rolled it down to find Zach. He was angry…about something.
"Do you mind explaining to me why you're leaving, without me?" He glared me down.
"Zach, my dear older brother by ten minutes, may I remind you that your girlfriend has a car who has and will offer you a ride when you need it. I suggest you go take her up on one of the many offers you have received. I have things to do and do not need you being you every minute of the day." I began rolling up my window, "I bid you good bye." I could not roll up my window any longer, so I put the car into reverse and backed out of the parking space before putting the car into drive and driving forward, speeding towards home.
"My, that was interesting." I gave Eve a sideways glanced, and grinned.
"With him, life is never dull, I can tell you that much."
well you see that purple-ish button down at your left hand corner. I want you to press it and tell me what you think! Please and thank you!
