After class Moze ran to her locker and quickly got out her books.
"Hey Moze." Ned greeted.
"Oh hey Ned." She said feeling weak.
"Why did you run from you'r locker this morning?" Ned asked.
"I just remembered I was late for...something." Moze stammered.
Ned raised an eye brow.
"Speaking of running gotta go again cya." Moze quickly smashed her sentence together and ran off to 3 period.
Ned shrugged and made a confused look.
Cookie walked up to Ned dancing.
"What happened to you?" Ned asked.
"Oh just alittle something I did for the dance. The ladies have been all over me Ned! I'm cool." He said.
"Hey do you know if Moze is okay?" Ned asked.
"What do you mean?" Cookie asked.
"Well she keeps running out on me. Like she has some crazy exscuse she late for something." Ned said concerned.
"She could be seeing her sick aunt." Cookie said.
Ned wacked Cookie.
"Be seriouse man. Let the old Cookie talk." Ned said crossing his arms.
"Sorry, Um. Maybe she really is late for something." Cookie said.
"How can she be late for class when we take the same home room?" Ned asked.
"Well the school dance is up. Usually when she means like that. She's searching for a date and has no time to talk." Cookie said. "Like you want to get the last rasberry pie!"
Ned gave him a "That's a stupid answere" stare.
"Hey you asked and I gave you my answere. Who knows, maybe she'll seeya tomorrow. Now if you don't mind I gotta go attract more georgeous women." Cookie said in a smooth voice.
Ned made a weird look.
"Here are some tips for a friend."
Tip 1: Try talking to your friend seeing if she/he is ok. Get down to the reason.
Tip 2: Try spending more time with that person so she can exsplaine more about the topic.
Tip3: Let he/she know you care.
Ned ran after Moze. He twirled her around to see him.
"Where are you going? Woodshop doesn't start for like 10 minutes. You'r not gonna be late." Ned said.
"Oh yes I will! I'm helping out and I gotta be there before everyone eles!" Moze said moving her feet.
Claire and Lisa were under the steps again.
"Come on Moze either this! Or a swirl with some toilet paper on top!" Lisa cried. Claire was silent and watched them work.
"Well if there's really anything wrong Moze you know you can tell me. We're friends right?" Ned asked.
Moze was silent.
"Right..friends. Just, friends." Moze said.
Moze looked into Ned's Blue bright eyes.
"Come on Moze!" Lisa said. She snorted.
Moze held Ned's hands and just when there noses touched the bell rang.
"Oh, I'm gonna be late like I said! Cya!" Moze said.
Ned watched her walk away.
"Oh Moze...!" Lisa cried.
"She was very close.." Claire said.
As Moze walked to her class she kept thinking to herself.
"I could have done it and it would all be over.." Moz said to herself.
She held on tight to her books and ran into woodshop.
