Okay, for some reason every time I tried to write another chapter of one of my other stories, I failed miserably. So now I have made peace with delivering this chapter a little early! We will say it is because my birthday is this month (giggles). Anyway, I got a comment asking if I did this stuff in high school. Well, to be honest, no, only 98% of it. Anyway, I will now present chapter five.
It was early; too early for them, anyway. The clock read: "11:15". May, Misty and Dawn knew how to party hard and were now found buried in random places in May's room. May was on the ground; she had chips surrounding her body with a few rebellious ones in her hair. She had also fallen asleep with one hand clutching the remote and the other clutching an open soda can. Misty had found her way to the bed along with a bag of Skittles and a melted half-pint of ice cream. Dawn had crashed in May's chair full of stuffed animals; she was wearing her cute, heart pajama top with her jeans! Her head lay oddly on the edge of the chair with her frizzled, blue hair now holding only one golden clip.
"Time to wake up; I am only giving you two minutes to be decent," someone yelled. All three girls' eyes shot open as they busily ran around the room hiding food, changing clothes, and straightening up. "Time!" the voice echoed again. The door flung open as the girl pranced into the room.
"Vanessa!" all three girls cheered. Vanessa stood in the middle of the room dressed to go out. She wore a red, spaghetti top shirt with a black one underneath, a pair of dark faded denim jeans, and a black pair of arm warmers that read "rock". Her shoulder-length black hair was perfectly combed and her hazel eyes brimmed with excitement. Dawn ran up and hugged their friend as they all sat in a circle on the ground.
"How did you know to come here?" May asked. All of the girls looked at Vanessa who smiled back. In fact, they had all been smiling they missed their old friend, Vanessa.
"Well, I got your message on MySpace about how you wished I would come, Dawn," Vanessa said. She took her iPod Touch out, tapping on the screen. "So, I wrote you back but you didn't answer. I called your house and your mom told me… Sorry I missed the sleepover part," Vanessa added. She then held out her iPod, showing her reply to Dawn's e-mail for proof.
"You are here now, so we can just make up for it," Misty said. She began to smile brightly. "So, what do you girls want to do today?" All three girls shrugged in response and studied one another. "Well, we could go rock climbing…" Vanessa jumped to her feet, nodding enthusiastically.
"Yes, rock climbing, let's go!" Vanessa cheered. Dawn and May groaned. Vanessa turned to them with a pleading look on her face. "Oh, come on; you guys don't have to put up with me that often. Please?" She stuck her bottom lip out farther, creating a sad, pouting expression.
"Oh, fine," Dawn groaned. She then took her toothpaste and toothbrush out of her bag and proceeded to the bathroom. "For the record, I never said I was climbing," Dawn pouted. She shut the bathroom door behind her.
"Same old Dawn," Vanessa chuckled. "Why don't you just go ahead and join the cheerleading team? You would fit in great," Vanessa taunted. "You know, the whole 'we don't need books, because of our great looks' club?" Dawn growled as she opened the door and glared. All the other girls just laughed as they continued to get ready for the day.
"It is about time," Vanessa sighed. She looked over at the clock again. It now read: "1:20" and the girls were just finished preparing to go. "Can I drive your car, May?" Vanessa asked. She once again put on her sad face and May rolled her eyes.
"No way, now let's go!" May yelled. She then grabbed the keys and headed out the door. The girls drove along while listening to "The Academy Is…". "Did Dawn tell you about how Ash, Drew and Paul decided to cheat off of us?" May asked.
"Oh yeah, she did tell me a little about that. So what did you three decide to do?" Vanessa asked. She leaned from the back seat and turned down the radio. All three girls kept their eyes to the front, avoiding Vanessa's questioned. "Oh, so you three sold out, huh? Good for you!"
"What?" Misty asked. She looked back at Vanessa from the passenger's seat. Vanessa shrugged and smiled.
"You guys needed a little fun, you know?" Vanessa said as they pulled into the rock climbing plaza. "Oh, this rock climbing place…" Vanessa trailed off. She gave a knowing smirk to Misty who blushed. "Doesn't Ash have a job here?"
"Maybe," Misty whispered. She pushed the door open and held it for everyone to walk through. When they got up to the counter, Ash smiled at them.
"Wow, didn't expect to see you guys here," Ash said. He picked out a pencil and picked up the notepad. "So, what will it be?" he asked. He then made a gesture toward the sign. There were two options; you could either pay by the hour or per session.
"Um, two sessions, please," Misty said. She made her way to the front of the group, while making sure to smile at Ash. Ash smiled back and they stared as if they were in some kind of trance. May cleared her throat, gaining Ash and Misty's attention. Ash blushed slightly and motioned for the group to follow. The girls began to apply the safety gear until someone called them.
"You called?" All four girls turned around to see Paul and Drew standing behind them. Dawn flushed nervously.
"Oh, yeah, I was going to tell you that we would take your deal," Dawn stuttered nervously. Paul looked the group over and rolled his eyes once he got to Vanessa.
"Are you planning on attacking me again?" he asked. He raised one eyebrow. His tone was harsh, but Vanessa chose to ignore him. Paul then turned his attention back to Dawn. "You called too early." Dawn blushed again as Paul sat down at the table. "Do you have the work with you?" May smiled.
"Yeah, my book bag is in the car," she said as she picked up her keys and began to head to the door. "And you are sure we will be able to get into the party?" May questioned. Drew sighed but nodded. May soon came back with the fifty question quiz. "Here," she said, sighing. "Now, how will we get in tonight?" she asked. Drew smirked as he began to jot down the answers.
"You'll see; just meet us outside at 9:30," he said. Drew then handed back the quiz and he, Paul and Ash disappeared.
Okay, that is it. My Beta told me to make it longer, so I did. Ha, see? I am so awesome. But don't expect it to always be this long… I might do another long one the eve of my birthday, though… Hum, we will see. Anyway, thanks for reading. I would love it if you would review. Bye! Oh and by the way, for those of you that don't know Vanessa is my OC from New Bark High!
