All day at work the only thing Maddie could concentrate on was the clock. After she had looked at it for a third time to only discover that it had been two minutes since the last time she looked she decided it was time to actually get to work.
"You okay Maddie? I mean you look a little distracted." Toby asked as he watched his quiet worker glance at the clock only to be disappointed.
"Oh yeah, I'm fine Toby. I've just got someplace to go after work that's all."
"Really? Where are you going?"
"Just to a friend's house, it's not that big of a deal."
"If it's not that big of a deal than why do you keep staring at the clock?"
"I don't know just anxious to leave I guess."
"Would this friend you're visiting happen to be new to town and just happened to call in sick today?" Toby asked with a knowing smile spreading across his face.
"Maybe, but it's not that big of a deal. I mean we are just friends." Maddie replied blushing and trying to avoid Toby's gaze at all costs.
"Well what time do you have to be over at "your friend's" house?"
"Umm, I told him I'd be there at four."
"Well it's already 3:30. The place is kind of dead today, why don't you just leave now?"
"Really? Are you serious Toby? Thanks." Madison replied shocked and excited gave Toby a hug, which he wasn't prepared for, and ran out the door.
"No problem, just be ready to work at any time I need you next!" Toby yelled after her and turned back to stack the records. After a minute Madison was running back into the store and headed for the back room.
"Back so soon?" Toby asked laughing.
"Yeah, I forgot our jackets in the back." She explained racing towards the door again with her jacket in her hand as she slid Nick's on. Toby laughed as he noticed which jacket she had put on as she raced out the door once again.
On her way over to Nick's house she noticed her mistake and quickly took his jacket off and slid into her own. As she headed towards Nick's house she noticed a figure standing by his door as he stood in the door way. When Madison walked closer towards the house she recognized the figure as Leelee and she froze. 'What is Leelee doing here? I thought Nick didn't like her!' Madison wondered as she stood where she was watching the two interact.
"Leelee? What are you doing here?" Nick asked shocked as he opened the door to see the annoying blond girl standing on his door step.
"A little birdie told me you weren't feeling well so I decided to come over and keep you company. Maybe give you some of my own special treatment." She replied as she tried to sneak past him into the house only to have his arm block the entrance.
"Listen Leelee that's really nice of you, which confuses me, but I've already got some company coming over and I'd much prefer their company than yours."
"Who could be coming over?" she asked shocked at his response.
"Well Madison should be coming over soon so if you could just get on your way that would be great."
"Madison? That shy little girl with the bad shoes! What could you possibly ever seen in her that I don't have?"
"Well for one thing she's one of the kindest people I've ever met. She is loyal to her friends and will do anything for them. She's beautiful inside and out. She doesn't need anything to show her beauty she has a natural beauty that is all her own. She's amazing. And that's just a few things that she has more than you."
"I don't need to be treated like this!"
"Well then leave, because I don't like you the way you like me and I'm not going to."
Unfortunately for both Nick and Madison Leelee had noticed Madison frozen in the driveway and decided to use it to her advantage. She leaned in, kissed Nick and turned around and left, leaving Nick standing there in shock.
As Madison saw the kiss she threw his jacket to the ground and ran. Nick never noticed Madison running down the street or his jacket sitting on the ground in the driveway, maybe if he had he would've run after her, but for now all he could do was stand there wondering what had just happened.
You know the deal…….review please….I know it sucks haha!
