"Mother, pick up your damn phone." I muttered under my breath as I hung up my phone. I knew that she was either 'out' or at home passed on the couch with her friends Jim Bean and Jack Daniels. I took a seat on the curb outside the school.
"You need a ride?" I jumped a little bit. I looked up and it was Kurt. I had really just met him today officially, so, why was he being nice? All I could do is nod. "Well, what are you doing sitting there for? Get in the car." He said in a somewhat sarcastic tone. I climbed into his car and he said, "You'll have to give me directions."
This was an opportunity for me. I gave him directions, but, it was to Sam's house. Luckily, I texted her that I was coming over. "Thanks Kurt." I said before starting to get out of the car.
"Wait! I want to say that you did a good job in Glee today. I'm glad we could get another member." I can honestly say that made me smile a bit. I had a feeling that we would also be good friends.
"Thanks." I gave a shy smile before getting out of the car. I waved at him went I reached the front door and walked in. Sam started hounding me with questions.
"How did it go? Who was there? Did you sing? Are you in the club? I need the details!" I laughed and put my hands on her shoulders to keep her from jumping. I laughed and tackled her questions one at a time.
"It went well. There were a couple cheerleaders, a couple football players, mostly people I didn't really know well. I was forced to sing. I made it in!" I exclaimed before jumping a little bit with Sam.
"Whoa, hold it. You said that you mostly knew. Who was there that you knew?"
I paused before giving her an answer. I really hoped that she didn't catch that. "Artie was there." I simply said. I wasn't going to lie to my best friend. Besides, when it came to guys, I know that she had always helped me out.
"Artie? The same guy you've been crushing on for a while? That Artie?" I gave a smile and nodded my head. I could tell that something was going to happen between Artie and I. Then again, I've been wrong before. Sam knew that. She always knew everything about me. "I'm happy for you, Iris. I truly am."
I was glad that she was. That made me happy.
