Chapter3:Randa Monroe

About ten minutes after dropping Megan off at her sixth grade classroom,Drake and Josh arrived at school.Just to torment her,Drake and Josh held her hand when they crossed the parking lot,even though Megan even went so far as to bite Drake's hand,even drew blood.

"Great,now she's going to be a vampire!",Josh said,scared,so he let go of her hand.Drake was pressing down on his right hand,with his left,to stop the bleeding.

"Megan,you should really watch what you do!",Josh said,noticing Drake was in a lot of pain.

"Megan,you don't have rabies, do you?",Drake asked,concerned.

"Wow,I'm suprised you know a word that doesn't involve music,or girls.But I guess that's the one you do.",Megan replied,as she walked to her classroom.

Belleview High School was Drake and Josh's domain,which was far more sophisticated that that of Megan's school.Drake thought,but then he saw some kids with a KICK ME sign on their backs.Yeah right.

"Whoa",Drake said as he saw his long-term crush,Randa Monroe walking down the hall,blinded by her beauty.Randa Monroe was absolutely gorgeous.She had drak brown hair,fair skin,with freckles,just like him,but instead of having brown eyes like his,hers were baby blue.Just looking at her made Drake's heart melt.He had known that he'd liked Randa since as long as he could remember.Of course,she was always taken.But not now.Her boyfriend Brock,who she had broken up with last week,was a fool,he thought.How could you cheat on Randa Monroe?I mean,she looked exactly like Marilyn Monroe.Well,when she was Norma Jean that is.It was rumored that she was Marilyn's great-niece.Meaning,Marilyn would have been her father's aunt,her father's father was Marilyn's brother-or so it was said.He didn't really know if it was a fact or not,but what he did know,was that her beauty sent him into a trance.Drake made his way to Randa.No way was he going to pass this opporitunity up.It was a rare occassion when Randa was unoccupied.

"Hey.",Drake casually said as he stood by Randa.

"Hey,I'm sorry,I'm at a loss of words.Do I know you?",Randa asked,very politely.

"Actually,I'm not sure.",Drake replied.

"Wait a second,you're Drake Parker.Right?Yeah you are.Aren't you?",Randa asked.

"Yes I am.",Drake replied,relieved that she knew him.

"Wow,I love your band.I saw you play at The Brew Note last week.And,didn't you play guitar ar the Zero Gravity concert when Devin Malone's hand got broken?",Randa asked.

"Yeah.How'd you know?"

"Well ever since I saw you and your brother at the talent show two years ago,I became a fan.And about Zero Gravity,my dad is best friends with Devin Malone,so we get free tickets and stuff.",Randa replied,not trying to brag,but somehow it seemed like she was,but Drake didn't notice,because like I said,her beauty entranced him.

"That's amazing!",Drake said,already knowing he like Randa,but now he really liked her.

"Well,Zero Gravity is coming this weekend to San Diego,and I happen to have two backstage passes to the show,and since they'res only one of me,I was thinking maybe you'd like to come?",Randa asked,hoping he would say yes,because she secretly had a huge crush on him,like he did her.

"Are you kidding?Man,that would be awesome!I'd love to go."Drake said,in shock that she asked him outmand to see his favorite band perform.

"Great.Glad to hear it.But,since the concert is Saturday night,and this is Wednesday,maybe we can get to know eachother in a date before Saturday?",Randa asked,then bit her lip.That was one of the characteristivs that Drake had noticed of hers.

"Yeah.How about tonight,at the Premiere?Say about 7:30 ish?",Drake asked.

"Cool.That's great.I can't wair.",Randa said,followed by one of her beautiful smiles that made him weak in the knees.Drake had it bad for her.He knew it,and he didn't even really know Randa,although he always liked her.Even as a child,in kindergarten.

"Well,I better get going to my next class.",Randa replied just after the bell rang.

"Yeah me too.",Drake replied.

"Well it was very nice talking to you,and I look forward to tonight,as well as Saturday night.",Randa added.

"It was nice talking to you too,I'll see you tonight at 7:30.",Drake replied.
"See you then,bye.",Randa replied,followed by her blowing him a kiss.

"Bye.",Drake managed to get out,before wondering if what had just happened was a dream.It clearly wasn't though,and Drake was excited about that.
