Massie was in the mall. She was meeting up with Claire. She made her way to the little coffee shop by the food court. Claire was sitting in an empty table. She was wearing plaid pants and a black top. Massie took a seat and Claire took a sip of her latte. Massie sighed as she sat down.
"What's wrong?" Claire asked as she set her hot steaming cup down.
"Ugh!" Massie whined. "I just want to pull my hair out. Alicia's cousin, Nina, is in town and she's soooo irritating. She's like all over Derrick its sooo disturbing."
"Jealous?" Claire asked. Massie placed her elbows on the table and pushed back her brown hair. "No."
"Really?" Claire asked surprised. "Don't you like him?"
"Well, I don't know. In fact, after thinking about it, his horrible past is enough to not like him" Massie said and played with the sleeve of her black jacket.
"What? The girls?" Claire asked. Massie nodded and Claire continued. "He hasn't even been with any girl since well, you've came to Briarwood."
Since then? Massie nearly choked as she thought. Uh? Then why are you all over Nina? She asked herself?
Claire's phone started ringing she pulled out her phone from her jacket pocket. It was a new text. She read it silently. While, Massie day-dreamed.
Why? Can't I just tell you I think Nina isn't right for you? Why do I feel so attracted to you? Massie's thoughts ran off and she didn't notice Claire snapping her fingers. When Massie finally tuned back, she stared at Claire. "Yes?"
"Mass, I gotta go. That was Layne and the Geography team is gonna have an emergency meeting." Claire explained. Massie nodded. "Sure, go ahead."
Massie and Claire both got up made their way out of the coffee shop. Once they, made it out, the two girls went their separate ways. Massie got in her car and drove to the one place she felt at peace, The Westchester Park.
Massie found a parking spot and made her way through the park. She just loved feeling the New York air. Massie walked on the beautiful tiled pathway that led throughout the whole park. The grass was greener than ever and the trees so beautiful. It was a perfect sunny afternoon. Massie walked to her favorite place, the parks main fountain. It was huge the size of a normal sized bedroom it was blue and sprayed water. Massie loved watching the water catch the sunlight it always had a rainbow reflection and the water seemed to be sparkling.
Massie walked up to it and could only hear the sound of water falling. She traced a tile with her finger. But, what Massie didn't know was that Derrick himself was at the very same fountain. Only he was at the back while Massie stayed at the front.
The fountain was large and round and Massie decided to take a walk around it just as derrick did too. Both were only a few feet apart but, they couldn't catch up to each other considering they were both walking slow and the hugeness of the fountain.
Massie slowly walked and thought to herself. What is this feeling?
So, did Derrick, What happens if I never get the courage to ask you out? He asked himself.
Why do look at me the way you do?
Nina is soooo hot. But, Massie is so different. She's everything I wanted in a girlfriend. Everything a person could wish for in a friend. But, when I saw Nina I felt something. Derrick explained to himself. The two were still walking but, not knowing they weren't alone. Derrick finally came to a stop but, Massie kept walking.
She was so close to seeing him but, Derrick's phone vibrated. He pulled it out and read the message from Nina.
Nina: Where R U? Meet me at The Rivera's. =)
Derrick sighed and walked away, just as Massie got closer to where he was. Massie finally, got there to nothing. But, something sparkly caught her eye. It was a black ipod. That shined from the sun. Massie walked up to it and turned it on she browsed through the music list and all her favorite songs were there.
The ipod even had "anthem of our dying day by the story of the year, which was weird. That's a really old song. Massie went through the playlist it had a ton of rock music. Weird. Very. Massie placed the ipod in her pocket. She'll find the owner. She needed too.
Same taste in music maybe whoever owns this is like, my musical soul mate. Maybe this person can help me get over Derrick and Massie was positive this wasn't a girl's ipod. For the fact that, the ipod in the back "property of a guy's empty soul" why would a girl do that?
Short chapter? Sorry. I just wanted to update like, today, before I get super busy with track and field. Ugh! But, I will update like, almost everyday. =)
And to xox kbjv xox, thanks for the suggestion. You're like a total mind reader cause that's exactly what's going to happen in the next chapter or the chapter after that. =)
So, once again, suggestions are very welcome. And a review would be nice. =)
