Spencer laughs then walks away. Kyla turns over and opens her eyes to look at me, "Y'all are such girls."

I smile then nod, "Yep."

Kyla moves around in my bed, stretching I assume. "When is Carmen gonna be here?" Kyla asks.

Spencer looks at her phone, "About thirty minutes."

Kyla jumps out of the bed, "Ah! I need atleast an hour and thirty. Y'all suck so bad." Kyla runs to the bathroom while Spencer and I look at each other and smile.

We all do our separate things. Spencer looks on the computer and checks her email, Myspace, etc. because she's already dressed. I go into my mother's room to take a shower because Kyla's in the other shower. We both get out at the same time even though Kyla got in ten minutes before me. She already has her hair and make up done, she's a fast one.

Kyla and I both get dressed which takes us twenty minutes. When we're all done doing everything we look at each other then we hear a honking sound outside. Spencer looks outside from my window and waves at Carmen. Kyla and I look at each other and smile. Spencer turns around to look at us, "What?" she says.

I shake my head and grab my book bag, "Nothing. Let's go." Spencer and Kyla don't really have anything to carry. They left the clothes that they wore here last night in my room. They're both wearing my clothes and they look good.

Spencer, Kyla and I walk out of my house, in that order to get in the car with Carmen. I lock the door then run to the car.

Spencer gets in the front while Kyla and me hop in the back seat. Carmen has the same car I have only in this candy apple red. "Hey." I say to Carmen from the backseat.

She looks in the rear view mirror, "Hey."

Kyla chimes in, "Thanks for taking us."

Carmen drives on then looks at Spencer, "No problem at all."

Spencer looks out the window and I assume she's blushing. She's so innocent.

On the way to school Kyla and I try to get to know Carmen. She's a pretty chill girl, I like her for Spencer. It's not that I don't like Ashley because I do. She reminds me of myself, she challenges me and plus she's hot. But I approve of Carmen… it's actually Ashley I think Spencer's the most worried about.

We arrive at school with ten minutes to spare. Kyla pulls me out of the car with her before Carmen even puts the car in park. "I wanna give them some time alone." Kyla says holding onto my hand while walking in front of me.

"Trying to play match maker, Ky?" I ask letting myself be dragged by her.

She stops in front of my locker, "Nope. They're already matched."

I take my hand back and laugh, "Whatever, Ky." I look at my locker then back at her, "I don't need anything out of my locker."

" I do. I left my economics book in there." she says like I'm suppose to know that.

I roll my eyes, "Well, open it."

"I forgot the combo." she says quietly.

I smile at her because she said it so cute, "Fine, I'll open it… retard."

She smiles big, "I know." I put in my combination to my locker and Kyla continues talking to me, "So... did you meet anyone at work?"

I lost my place so I start over, "Uh, yeah, I met this girl named Erika. She's so cool, well, from what I know about her."

Kyla nods, "How old is she?"

"Only like 19 or 20. I wasn't really caring about her age as long as her body was nice." I say smiling while I open the locker.

Kyla smiles, "Are you going into work today?"

I nod and point at my locker, "Get your books and yeah I have to work today."

Kyla takes a book out of my locker, "How are you getting there?"

I think about it as Kyla shuts the locker, "Um, I don't know, I guess I could ask Glen." I say scrunching up my face.

She looks me in the eye, "I can't believe your mom won't let you drive."

I nod, "Yeah, she sucks."

She starts walking to class and so I follow behind her, "Well, I hope your ride with Glen goes well."

I stop in my tracks and Kyla gives me a weird face, "I'm gonna call Erika."

"For what?"

I smile, "Maybe I can get her to come pick me up on the way to work."

"You don't even know her..." Kyla says weirdly.

"I do know her." I say walking again.

Kyla walks next to me, "You've only known her for eight hours, that's--"

"Chill, Ky, she's not gonna rape me or anything. I know her full name, I know where she works and I know her cell. She's not gonna kill me, chill out." I say laughing at how over protective she is.

Kyla sighs and looks away from me, "I just worry about you sometimes. Since Lily's in the hospital, I expect you to do something you'll regret."

I grab Kyla's arm and stop, "You don't have to protect me. I'm 18, Ky, I think I can make my own decisions." She looks down at her feet then I raise her chin up, "I'm okay. I mean, yeah, it's hard but I have you to help me, right?"

She smiles, "Yeah, I guess you do."

I move my hand away from her, "And you'll be the first to know when I have sex with Erika."I say smiling.

she shakes her head, "No, that's okay. I really don't wanna know that."

I nod, "Because you want me all for yourself, right?" I wink at her.

She shakes her head and rolls her eyes, "I'm gonna go to class. I'll see you in second." she hugs me and she smells really nice.

I wrap my arms around her, "See you." she stops hugging me and walks off to her class but not before looking behind herself, at me, to blow me a kiss. I love Kyla. After talking to Kyla I run into Spencer who is holding hands with Carmen... in public. Spencer just looks at me smiling and blushing while Carmen looks at me smiling, too. I look at their hands then back up at Spencer, "So... does this mean y'all are doing the tango?" I say.

Carmen coughs and I laugh, "Um, not that but we're together." Spencer says looking at Carmen then back at me.

I smile and nod, "Good," I look at Carmen, "You hurt her, you're dead, make sense?" I say smiling.

Carmen nods her head slowly, "Yeah." she says slowly.

I narrow my eyes at Carmen and speak seriously, "Don't make me have to kick your ass, kid."

Carmen looks like she's full of fear. Spencer laughs and rubs Carmen's shoulder, "She's just kidding, babe."

Carmen sighs with relief, "Good because she's scary."

I laugh and smile, "I'm just kidding with you but not about the kicking your ass thing... I'll do it."

Spencer shakes her head and smiles at me, "I'm gonna talk to Roxy so I'll see you in second?" Spencer says looking at Carmen and smiling.

Carmen nods, "Yeah, if I don't she'll kick my ass right?" Spencer laughs, "All right, see you second." Carmen kisses Spencer without any warning. And it wasn't a sweet and innocence kiss, it was more like I'm-gonna-suck-off-your-face kiss. They stop sucking face then Carmen waves to Spencer as she walks away.

Spencer watches Carmen walk away as I clear my throat, "Whoo, Spencer!" I say. She looks at me then looks down; cute, "So... she asked you out?" I say sitting on the nearest bench.

Spencer sits next to me, "Yeah, well, actually I asked her out."

My eyebrows shoot up, "Really? Spencer Carlin, I am shocked, absolutely shocked."

She shakes her head then rolls her eyes, "I had to, she..."

"Held a gun up to your head?" I ask jokingly.

Spencer smiles, "No. She was just being so sweet and I--I like her a lot."

I smile, "Well, I'm happy you're happy."

She wraps her arms around me, squeezing the life out of me, "Thank you. I'm glad someone cares about my happiness."

I wrap my arms around her while trying to breath, "Alright, then why are you trying to kill me?"

She lets go of me and smiles, "Sorry."

I put my right hand to my chest and breath in deep and slow, "It's okay. You should be on the wrestling team or something though." I say laughing.

She pushes me playfully, "Shut up."

"Only if you promise not to strangle me again." I say smiling at her. She laughs and stares at me then loses her smile. She sighs, "What's up?"

She looks down at her shoes then up at me, "I keep thinking about Ashley..."

I sigh, "What about her?"

"She's gonna freak out on me when she finds out about me and Carmen."

"Well, she's gonna have to get over it, right?" I say placing my hand on Spencer's hand.

She looks at me, "Yeah, but, I still hate to see her hurt, you know?"

I nod, "Of course you do. And I hate to see you hurt so do what you want to do. Not just because of Ashley, okay?"

Spencer smiles at me, "Okay," she nods, "That's a promise."

The bell rings then Spencer and I stand up, "You better keep it." she nods her head, "Well, I gotta get to class so I'll see you later?" I ask.

She picks up her purse, "Okay, bye." she says walking away from me.

I watch her walk away and smile. She deserves to be happy. But at the same time I wasn't here when Spencer and Ashley were together so who am I to say anything. Kyla says she likes seeing Spencer and Ashley together she said: "They were like the pureness of love and life." Um, I'm sorry but when I think of Ashley, pure doesn't come to mind. Ashley equals lesbian bad girl and Spencer screams pure Catholic but obviously not so much pure if she's lesbian with Ashley. I'm spacing out so I walk in the direction of my class. Gym, yay, Ashley's in that class with me. I wonder if she's even here today, I didn't see her car.

I arrive at the gym and I see Ashley sitting in the bleachers along with everyone else, I assume we don't have to dress out today. I look over at the coach and apparently we have a sub... a pretty cute sub. She looks like she's about 20. Hmm, interesting.

::::::A/N::::::

No Roxy's not gonna hit on the coach... well, maybe, you never know, she has sex appeal, i'd jump in bed with her if she was real lol.

hmm, anyone ever wondered what would happen with Kyla and Roxy? maybe i'm doing a little bit of foreshadowing right now...

thanks for the reviews.
