okay guys, i'm back. sorry i took so long to update... WARNING for language in this one
Over the next couple chapters, things are gunna start to pick up and get intresting i guess. so sorry its been kinda slow, but i just needed to get to a certain point before my main idea could launch. i kinda like this chapter, another Ash and Zack moment by the way, adn Ashlyn and Brittany.
BTW, lots of Drama! so lets do this :P
.~.
The afternoon sun was blinding as I watched the football players finish their death crawls and head into the locker rooms. Britany was suddenly next to me, looking down into her lap. "I know you know..."
I sighed and sat up more, glancing away "Know what?"
"That I'm a dolphin."
I looked back at her, a little shocked "What?"
"Ya know. A dolphin is a gay shark. I'm gay."
"Oh... yeah I guess."
"Well, I know Avery told me to avoid you, but I just want to know how you fell about me being lebanese."
"I dunno. It's just kinda weird, knowing that it's possible you like me... in that way"
She stood up, straightened her skirt, and turned her body back to me "I guess I understand. But if it counts, I have a girlfriend, and I don't like you in that way." Brittany gave a small wave and walked down the bleachers. Some of the jocks were just starting to exit the locker rooms and move the equipment into the field house. I still didn't see Todd come out yet, so I pulled out a copy of "The Hunger Games" and finished where I had left off.
I was so interested in my book that I didn't even notice the shaking of the bleachers as somone climbed the steps and sat next to me.
"Didn't really think you to be a reader"
I looked up from the chapter and saw Zack sitting next to me, eyeing the book in my hand "What do you mean?"
"Well, usually the pretty, popular, cheerleaders aren't that smart. Or don't show it, atleast. They don't really want people to think they're geeks or something."
"So becasue I read I'm a geek?" I exhaled as I dogeared the page and closed it, slipping the book into my bag.
"No! You're fine. It's cool that you aren't a total didtz like most of the other cheerios." He quickly backtracked. Zack looked up at me and smiled slightly, "You're actually kinda cute with your glasses"
My eyes widened and I hurridly took them off. I forgot that I was wearing them. I blushed slightly realizing that he said I was cute. I looked away from his beatiful green eyes and swept my view across the field. I suddenly remembered why I was still here. "Hey are you guys done with practice?" He nodded his head once, looking down, blushing as well. Or was that just because he'd been running at practice? "Do you know where Todd went? I swear just a few minutes ago he was standing right there." I pointed down onto the field where Coach Beiste was picking up carelessly dropped shoulder pads.
"Yeah, I think I saw him go behind the feild house about fifteen minutes ago."
"Ugh, come on. Help me find him." I sighed as I stood up and walked down the bleachers. Zack followed behind, his cleates smaking against the cold metal noisily. As we crossed the field, I took notice that Lindsey was gone. Courtney was still flirting with the blonde headed quaterback with a huge mouth. I rolled my eyes and continued towards the feild house, my suspicions and worries getting worse as I came closer. What if he was smoking with those troublesome guys that Avery sometimes dates? Or dealing drugs? Or-
"Holy shit" I gasped as I came around the corner of the field house, seeing Lindsey pressed up against the white concrete wall with Todd ontop of her, shoving his tounge down her throat. His football jersey was on the ground. I stared in shock as Lindsey rubbed her hands down his chest. The trance broke when her hands went lower, fumbling with his belt.
"Todd!" I yelled. They instantly broke apart, his face turned a pale white and his blue eyes widened. I rushed over there and picked up his shirt, throwing it at him and crossing my arms as he scrambled to pull it over his head "What the hell are you doing?" I fumed, throwing my arms in the air "I've been waiting for half an hour, just to find out that you've been back here the whole time, making out with this slut!"
Zack chuckled slighty behind me and I turned for a second to glare at him, you're not helping. I turned back and pointed in the direction of the parkinglot. "Go get in the fucking car and wait for me" I hissed. He sighed, stole a pleading glance at Lindsey, and jogged away. I looked at her. She just stood there, arms crossed and leaning against the building with a smirk across her face. I really wanted to wipe that smile off her face with a hard, stinging bitch-slap, but knew she would go crying to Principle Figgins. So instead I stepped to her threatingly and spoke in a poisonous voice no louder than a whisper "I don't care who you flirt with, or makeout with, but stay the hell away from my brother"
She simply rolled her eyes and muttered a "whatever" before slipping away and slinking off towards the field to flirt with the other guys. She could seduce whoever she wanted, I didn't care, just as long as she stayed away from Todd. When I looked back at Zack, I could have burst out laughing if I wasn't so pissed at the moment. He was staring at me, green eyes bulging, and mouth slightly opened. He was shocked, almost scared, of my bitch mode. "Sorry you had to see that" I mumbled, walking at a fast pace away from the scene and towards the parking lot, where Todd better be.
Luckily he was there, sitting in the front seat with his head resting on his arm that was drapped across the car door. Unlike a few minutes ago, he seemed more angry than embarassed. I didn't care though, 'cause I wasfurious as well. The whole ride home he didn't look away from the window and I glared ahead at the road. He didn't move an inch until I parked in the drivway, where he suddenly flew out the car and into the house. I chased after him, leaving my things in the car and rushed into the kitchen where Mom was getting out ingrediants for dinner. Todd was probably locked up in his room.
"Woah, honey what's wrong? You seem angry and- and tense. Do we need to do yoga?" Mom stared at me waiting for an answer. "What? No, I don't need to do yoga-"
"Should you pray about it? We could ask the lord for guidence,"
Great, mom's going godly nut on me. She only does this when someone is stressed out or pissed about something. I sighed as I sat down at the island. "No mom, maybe later. It can't be undone" I shudded slightly at the memory, just thinking about them swapping salivia made me want to barf.
"What do you mean, sweetheart? What happened?"
"I caught Todd... uh, fooling around behind the field house today with Lindsey Martinie"
"We were just kissing!" Todd yelled as he slank into the kitchen, wanting mom to hear his side of the story aswell.
I stood up and scoffed at the thoguht "Making out, more like it, AND she was fucking undressing you!"
"Ashlyn, language!" Mother warned me, "Now Ashlyn, are you telling me that Todd had S-E-X with this girl, Lindsey?"
"Almost did" Todd emphisized shaking his head slightly.
"Todd, son, you're not helping your case." Carl called from the living room, obviously not wanting to get involved.
"Todd Andrew Tora! Adultry outside of marrige is a sin! Have you forgotten everything I have ever taught you?" Mom's voice grew higher with ever word she said. I think she's going into shock.
"No, I just think it's unrealistic..."
"Unrealistic? You know what's unrealistic? How long you're gunna be grounded for!" She yelled throwing the towel that she was wringing in her hands onto the counter.
"What? That's so stupid! I didn't do anything!"
"You would have if I wasn't there to stop you.." I muttered. Todd glared at me before turning his gaze back to mom.
"How long am I gonna be grounded for?"
"For as long as I'm still mad at you. No TV, no video games, no hanging out with friends-"
"Oh, come on Mom! What am I supossed to do? I can't just avoid my friends forever!"
"Ugh, fine. You can hang out on weekends, but you'll have a curfew, 10 o'clock." He was about to complain again when she added "And they can't come over after curfew."
"What the hell? You're being unreasonable!"
"Shut up Toddler. She's just going to add onto to your punishment the more you whine about it." I mused from my seat on the stool. He glared at me with something dark and threatening in his bright blue eyes. I could tell he wanted to say more, but he didn't. He just turned and walked out, punching the doorway as he walked by.
"Thank you, Ashy, for telling me."
"Okay" I sighed and then followed in Todd's direction. Walking up the stairs, I went into my bedroom and layed down on the bed. Pulling out a magazine, I slowly flipped through the pages. It wasn't long until I felt a presence and I looked up at Todd who was standing in my doorway. His sandy blonde hair fell over his eyes so I couldn't see what he was thinking.
"You just had to go and blab to mom"
"Hey, I wasn't the one grinding with that little whore. I'm sure that if you caught me in a similar postion with any guy, you'd tell mom in a split second."
He nodded and tossed his bangs out of his eyes. Suddenly the greyish-blue irises turned brighter. A despicable smirk appeared and a short, dry laugh escaped his throat. "Oh I'll get you back Ash."
"And how will you do that?" I blankly asked, bored with this conversation already. His threats didn't mean anything to me.
"I have my ways. And remember," I glanced up at his glistening eyes, "payback's a bitch."
