Hey guys I know I haven't updated in forever but I had a major case of writers block and had no idea where I wanted this story to go. You guys have every reason to hate me but here it is a new chapter of do I or not!
It has been four days since I admitted to myself and my family that I like Madge and I'm positive my face has permentaly turned red. Every time I see them that's all they talk about, well almost all of them.
Rory hasn't said one thing about it since that day which makes me wonder what he is planning on doing. The worst thing he could probably do is one tell Madge but she probably won't believe him and two he could tell Bristle and Thom and I'm praying he doesn't do that. Bristle and Thom work in the mines with me and love any chance they can get to make fun of me and Rory knows that. If he told them the entire seam would know by the end of the day and I would never hear the end of it.
That day as me and katniss walk up to greasy sae's in the hob, I find out that part of my worst nightmare has begun.
"So gale when were you planning on telling me you have a girlfriend? "Says greasy sae, I can hear Katniss and Darius snickering behind me as I groan. "I don't have a girlfriend". Greasy sae grins "well why don't you man up and go tell the girl that you like her "greasy sae winks "I'm sure she will see what a catch you are".
I can't help but roll my eyes at the crazy old lady; I pay for my food and walk home quickly before I meet someone else who knows about my crush on Madge. But once again luck is against me because I meet bristle and Thom the second I walk into the seam, they are both grinning like idiots which can only mean one thing Rory told them about them about Madge. Uh oh this is going to be a long trip home.
"Hey Hawthorne" calls bristle "we just found out some very interesting information from Rory". I groan "what would that be about bristle". They both laugh as they take me over to the slag heap well" says Thom "it involved you and a young lady by the name of Madge and something about a crush". They both start laughing harder when they see the blush starting to form on my face. "I have no idea what you're talking about" I mutter, bristle chuckles "well than why is you're face the same color as a tomato" then Thom grins "if I didn't know better I'd he's blushing".
Bristle gives Thom a mischievous grin "so it's true the great gale Hawthorne has a crush on the mayor's daughter and he must have it bad because he's blushing". I stand up and walk away glaring at both of them. All I can think about is how much trouble Rory is going to be in when I get home.
When I arrive home I'm surprised when as soon as I open the door I run into somebody. When they turn around it takes all my willpower not to turn around and run. The person I ran into was Madge Undersee.
I know its short I'm still trying to work on that but I hope you liked it and if you guys have any idea where you think this story should go please let me know and please review!
