Chapter 3: Missy

Suzie looks up at the minor, "This is where you live?" She asks.

"Yeah, awesome I know. C'mon." Missy leads Suzie inside, it was even nicer on the inside. She thought that her rich her act might have just been that but it was true. Suzie could see herself being friends with her but couldn't understand why she had the attitude she did with no rhyme or reason. If there was a reason she hid it very well, Suzie went with Missy to her room to work more on their project.

"Can I ask you something Missy?"

"What is it?" She asks as she looks through the project papers.

"Why don't you have more people or friends to bring home?" Missy stops at the question and gives her an eyebrow a bit confused. "I mean, you have all these space and you're fun to hang out with, why don't you have more friends? You seem to push people away a lot."

Missy shrugs, "Maybe it's because I don't want to be around people who accept it as much. I'm much different than others."

"What do you mean?"

"I'd rather not discuss it really. Let's just say that I keep a lot to myself, and things have worked out a lot better since then and it would just be better that way."

Suzie understood but still couldn't find a reason for her not to want to still try being close to other people. if it was something earlier than if she wasn't around for it maybe she wanted a friend she could have a clean slate with. "Alright..."

Missy heard the disappointment in her voice and sighed, "Well I guess I could try being nice to someone, just one person."

Suzie smiles, "Okay! And it should also be someone you like and really want to get to know."

"Yeah... I can do that."

They got back to work on their project, Missy goes with Suzie to Volley Ball tryouts for moral support. She was a natural, she was going head to head with Mozely for a full 33 seconds before the ball finally hit the ground on Suzie's side. It was easy to see that both were going to make the team.

"That was fun," Suzie says to Moze.

"Yeah it was." Moze smiles back and goes to form up with the rest of the squad, the teacher tells them all to shower and the results would be up tomorrow.

Missy waits outside of the gym as Suzie comes out, "Ready for lunch?" Suzie asks.

"Yeah, I'll meet you there."

"Okay." Suzie goes on her way as Moze comes out.

"Mozely." Missy gives her a look.

"Oh Missy... Suzie already left if you missed her." She says trying to break free of her normal agrumentative conversations with Missy.

"I just wanted to say, you did really good out there. The one on one you had with Suzie was exciting, I think you'll be great on the team."

Moze was understandable shocked but decided to take the compliment, "Thanks Missy." She walks by Missy and heads on her way to her locker. Missy turns to watch Moze walk away, she places her hand on her own chest and grips then walks the other way toward the lunch room.
