*Tommy's POV*
I woke up monday morning, excited yet, nervous. I really wanted to be the student director of the school play. That would look really good on my resumes when I apply to film school. These little home projects will look good too, but something that gets me publicly recognized in the school will look even better. When I made my way outside I saw Lil in the drivers side of the car, I smiled I loved the days when she drove. It was just me and her in the car for at east a little while, and I could act like she was my girlfriend. "Hey" I said getting in the car and giving her a kiss. "Hi" she replied, "Today is the day" she smiled. "What do you mean?" I asked confused, "I think we should tell everyone that we are boyfriend and girl friend, I mean now that we have gone on a date and everything... I think it's time" She replied.
"Sounds great to me, we can say it once everyone is in the car" I beamed. I couldn't be happier, "you know I am one of the two they are considering for the student director position of the school play" I told Lil. "Really!? That is amazing, do you know who you are up against for the spot?" She asked. "Savannah Shane, we both have to do a lot of stuff to get the part I guess whoever does a better job get it" I replied. "That is great, but didn't you cast her as the female lead in the movie?" She asked "I don't know I'm stuck between her and Susie" I shrugged that wasn't a big deal right now. When we pulled into the Finster's quick, before they came out we kissed. "Hi guys" said Chuckie, "Hey you guys... can we pick up Jace on the way? His motorcycle is in the shop" She asked looking at her phone, he must have been texting her. "Yeah" Lil said shaking her head yes.
I liked Jace, he was a nice guy. He didn't live far from us either so we wouldn't have to go out of the way to get him. Kimi smiled and typed away at her phone, we then went back over to the Deville's, once Phil was in the car we were going to say what we needed to the only one that would really be upset is Phil. I mean Kimi already knew, and Chuckie wasn't effected very much by this. So when Phil got in the car sitting my Chuckie leaving him in the middle, "Hey, we're picking up Jace on the way" Lil told him, "So I'm going to slip up the middle seat up here for him to sit. So just move up here so he can sit with Kimi, Phil". He sighed he didn't seem to like Jace so much. "Okay..." I said as Lil started down the road.
"Lil and I have something, we need to say". Everyone looked attentively towards us but I don't think Kimi was paying much attention, she already knew though it wasn't a big deal to her. "We, are dating... You know boyfriend, girlfriend" I said nervously with a smile. "I already knew that" Phil said laughing, I knew he didn't approve very much but at least he wasn't yelling. "I mean did you really think I didn't suspect when you just went to the Java Lava for five hours?" He continued to laugh. I then held Lil's hand and now I didn't have to ever let go.
We got over to, Jace's in no time. He came out and Phil sat with us in the front. You could tell he was uncomfortable, which made me feel bad but we would all get used to this. Jace kissed Kimi, and said hi to us all. Asking Chuckie about his eagle scout project, me about the movie and the play, Lil about soccer, and Phil he tried to talk to Phil but he was not interested. I don't know why Phil doesn't seem to like Jace, everyone else does he is really nice and cool to everyone. When we got to school we all went our separate directions, the day felt like a bler of nervousness. When the time finally came for me to go to the play. I walked in to the auditorium and saw just Ms. Tish, sitting on the stage looking at papers and humming. She was a quirky woman, in her late twenties. She had strawberry blonde hair and was about six feet five inches tall. Her hair today was just messy, under a bandanna, she wore a long brown skirt a baggy icky shade of green sweater, she was also bare foot. She always was so that didn't surprise me.
"Ms. Tish?" I said as I walked on to the stage. "Oh, hello Thomas!" She said excitedly a huge smile on her face. "Hi" I replied, "how are you?" She asked "I'm very good" I smiled "What do you want me to do for you?" I asked. "Well Savannah came down around two... so all the set up his done" She was deep in thought. " Well you could go get the audition list and put it on the table I don't think she did that, then go get a drink and the auditions will begin!" She sounded excited. "You know we are doing one of my favorites this year!" She exclaimed in an instant. "Really?" I asked "Yes, it's Beauty and the Beast. It truly is my favorite Disney movie" She beamed. She was known as the nicest teacher in the school. Then some day she is so sweet you need dentures after a conversation with her, I have also heard though that she becomes evil personified as the date of the play approaches.
"I like it too" I lied a bearly knew the story of Beauty and the Beast. She smiled, that was a good thing to say. I walked off and found the list of the people auditioning and put it on the table. When I went to buy a soda from the vending machine I saw Savannah sipping a diet coke on a bench next to the machine. "Pickles" She greeted, "Hi Savannah, I guess you heard we are in competition" I tried to smile. I put a dollar and fifty cents in the machine and got a grape crush and sat next to her. I opened up the bottle and took a sip, "I want this to be fair Savannah" I said. "Me too, Pickles. You don't understand though, I'm a senior this is my last chance to get this job. I have applied every year since I was a sophomore and just made it this far this year. I'm not going with out a fight. I need this for college, if I don't get it soon then it won't even matter" She side. "There is nothing you can do to make me just hand over the position" She said getting up.
I wasn't asking her to hand it over I was asking her not to sabotage, but whatever interpret it how you want. I got up and made my way to auditions, the first day we were to watch them together and make decisions as a team. Then the next was my turn to do it on my own, and the third day was for Savannah was to do it on her own. We sat down at the table in front of the Stage. The first person came in it was a girl, I think she was a freshman, "Name?" I asked quickly before Savannah did. "Annie" She smiled, "Role?" Savannah asked "Belle" She replied, "Start by singing" I said. She went in to a very mediocre rendition of the song Belle. We decided that if the girl wasn't good enough at singing we wouldn't ask her to run lines. We then asked her to leave. It went on like that me and Savannah got pretty competitive, I really hoped I would get the job. Lil was waiting for me by her car, Kimi was in the back seat. "Hey, boyfriend"She smiled, "Hey, Girlfriend" I replied. That sounded really corny but it didn't matter, I kissed her. "Ready?" She asked "yeah" I said and opened the driver side door for her, it was the least I could do since she was driving.
Sorry about the boring chapter. I was really tired this week and this was the best I could do. Review and if you want to still tell me your thoughts on Jace, Thanks!
