Chapter 10
Oh my god! Christina thought. When am I going to get out of here? This is so boring. She turned to look at the clock. ONLY 9 o' CLOCK? I've only been here for a hour! You have got to be kidding me. I swear if my grade and chances to get into a good college were on stake, I would be out of here.
Christina was interrupted in her thoughts when a note landed on her desk in front of her. She looked around to see where the source of the piece of paper came from. She saw Charlie Pace, the hot musician that was in the rock band Driveshaft, smiling at her. They had become friends over the first few days of summer school on common grounds.
She opened the not to read:
Hey, you want to grab a bite after school?
Charlie
Charlie received the note back with an answer in it a couple of minutes after he tossed it to her.
Sure, but I kind of have a job right after school. How bout we grab a bite on the way to where I work, if that's okay with you.
Christina
He turned to smile at her to confirm his answer, which was obvious. He tossed the note back one last time.
Great, it's a date.
Christina looked up at him after she finished reading the note. She saw him smirking at her. She did the one thing anyone would do. She waited until the teacher turned his back on them, then she stuck her tongue out at him.

"I would have never thought that I would like this type of food, but it's really good." Christina said while stuffing her face with spicy foods.
"Well, I guess hours of sitting in a classroom will do that to you." Charlie smiled at the site before him. "You know that stuffing your face with that type of food will burn you taste buds right?" He laughed at the irony. As he finished saying that, she immediately asked for water, her mouth burning.
After Christina gulped down what seemed to have been gallons of water she finally said she had to go.
"Okay, well I should go now," Christina said. "I can't be late. I had fun though. We should do this again sometime."
"Yeah, that would be great." Charlie said looking disappointed that she had to go.

"Okay, I'm here." Christina shouted to her boss over the loud sounds of drills and wrenches. "What should I do?"
"Well, we need you to do some paper work right now, but if you finish I early, you can work with burke on the motorcycles." Her boss, Michael said.
She sped through the paperwork, eager to work on the motorcycles.
"Hey Burke." She greeted him as she approached him. "Which ones are we working on?"
"Christina please call me Preston." Preston said. "You know me well enough."
"Fine then call me Yang, Burke." Christina smirked at him.
"Fine, Yang, we're working on the motorcycles on the right." Preston pointed to the stunning ones on the right. Christina stared at them awe."
"Christina? CHRISTINA." Preston tried to get her attention as he snapped his fingers in front of her face. This told her it wasn't the first time that he tried to get her attention.
"Sorry, what was that?" Christina asked.
Preston sighed, "I just said that the motorcycles we're working on is go up for sale so we have to do really good jobs on them. We have to make sure everything is working properly and things that are not we have to fix and clean them up."
"Would you happen to know who is selling them?" Christina asked.
"Yeah, you can talk to him when he comes to pick them up." Preston told her. "They'll probably go for thousands of dollars, now come on Yang we have work to do."
At times like these, Christina was happy she had saved all the money she received. She had accumulated thousands of dollars over the years.

The first words that came out of her mouth when she was at home were, "Mom, can I buy something? I really want it and it is useful."
"Depends." Susan told her youngest daughter when she came into the kitchen.
"Depends on what?" Christina asked.
"Well, let's see… Depends on if it is dangerous, expensive, and how useful it is."
"Well… It's a motorcycle." Christina told her sheepishly.
"No! No way." Susan told her. "First of all they are so expensive, second of all you'll need to buy insurance, third of all it is not practical and not to mention, it is VERY dangerous."
"But mom-" Christina started whiningly.
"Don't but mom me," Susan said. "I've made my decision and that's final."
"Fine." Christina sighed. She knew she had lost this battle, but she hadn't lost the war yet.
Her next target, her dad. She knew that there was a chance that her mother would cave-in if her father said yes.
Her dad, Andrew, was kind of a push over. He loved his daughters very much and often bought them what they wanted. Of course he some times drew the line.
Christina heard the door of her dad's car slam. She ran to the door to meet him. She didn't want her mother to persuade him to not let her buy the motorcycle.
"Hi daddy!" Christina said smiling innocently.
"Okay, what do you want to buy?" Andrew said looking tired.
"What do you mean, what do I want to buy?" Christina's smile turning into a frown. "What makes you think that I want to buy something?"
"Well, let's see… You're greeting me at the front door, you're cheerful, oh yeah and you're doing what you usually do when you want something? So cough it up, what do you want? Because if you don't you'll have an even smaller chance of getting what you want." Andrew said as if reading from a script.
"Fine, fine you win." Christina gave up. "I want a motorcycle." "Wait, wait before you say anything," Christina said interrupting him before he could start. "Sure it's a little dangerous, but this would mean you don't have to drive me to school anymore, and I have my licenses already. Also I'll pay for it with my own money."
"What did your mother say?"
"Um… Well…"
"I said no." Susan said popping in her head from the kitchen.
"But come on mom." Christina begged. "It'll be so useful. You guys wouldn't have to drive me to school anymore and I'll pay for it."
"Well… I don't know." Andrew said. Christina knew she had to do it. She pulled out the puppy eyes card and it worked like a charm.
"Fine." Andrew said giving up. "At least that would mean I don't have to wake up as early to give you a ride."
"Yes!"
Wow! Other than summer school, this summer is turning out pretty good. Christina thought to herself as she walked up the stairs to her room.

Okay, well this chapter is longer right? The next few chapters and this one will be just a few meanless harmless chapters. Purely set on their summer jobs. Well, this chapter was how I thought Christina got her motorcycle that we saw her drive once or twice in the show.
