Why hello there! Long time no see eh?
I officially ended school on June 28th and decided to take a brief break :) So therefore, I am back!
This school was very wonderful indeed :) I recieved Honors, Athletic Award, Music Award, Citizenship Awards, Commendable Effort, and the Highest LA average in my grade! Whoopee!
Anyways! Here is the official chapter one of The Dating Game! Hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer: I own nothing!
Katie Gardner sat in fourth period history class listening to the corpse-like voice of Mrs. Huliere. Drumming her fingers along her desk, the teacher finished up her speech.
"And that class was the start of World War II. Any questions, comments or concerns from anyone?" Katie's eyes wandered the room hoping that someone could save them from the next part. A hand shot up in the front of the class and Katie grinned. That savior of a hand belonged to the one and only Brendan Smith, smart funny and charming.
"Oh, yes Mr. Smith?" Mrs. Huliere smiled.
"I was just wondering..." Katie listened to Brendan's honey sweet voice and watched his pink lips move in motion with his words. Sighing, Katie leaned onto her hand and fell deeper into this bliss.
"I hope that answers your question." Mrs. Huliere nodded towards Brendan. Nodding, Brendan quickly jotted down his newfound information. Satisfied, Mrs. Huilere finished her class and allowed the students to chat amongst themselves. Grinning Katie packed up her things and moved over to the desk beside Brendan.
"Hey Brendan!" Katie smiled.
Brendan turned and faced Katie with a genuine smile playing on his lips. "Hiya."
"What'd you think of the lesson today?" Katie quickly asked.
"I thought it was wonderful," Katie nodded pretending to listen to Brendan. All she could notice was his clear blue eyes and shaggy brown hair, and how it fell perfectly in place whenever he ran his hand through it.
Jolting back to reality, Katie nodded enthusiastically. "Yeah, it was a really cool lesson." Brendan grinned and Katie melted inside. The loud ring of the bell echoed through the classroom and students bustled to get out and head on their way to the cafeteria.
"Well okay then, see you later Katie." Brendan waved and headed off to follow his friends.
In utter happiness, Katie skipped over to her good friend Annabeth Chase.
"Hey Annie." Katie greeted the curly blonde teen.
"Oh hi Kates, how was history class?" Annabeth closed her locker and walked in sync with Katie.
"Wonderful."
Looking at Katie, Annabeth raised an eyebrow at her friend. "What happened?"
The brunette looked over at Annabeth and smiled dreamily. "Brendan." She chirped.
Chuckling, Annabeth shook her head. "Well then Katie, my boyfriend is over there. I'll see you later okay?" Giving one last wave, Annabeth headed over to Percy Jackson. Katie smiled as Percy gave his girlfriend a quick kiss. To almost everyone, these two teenagers would have to be one of the cutest couples ever. The school jock and the school genius paired up together. Katie wished she had such a great relationship like her two friends.
Katie walked over to the cafeteria line and grabbed her wallet from her shoulder bag. Lining up, choices were displayed in front of her green eyes. Pizza, burgers, salads and more, apparently today was one of those good days. Picking up a plate of salad, a sandwich and some water, Katie passed over her ten dollar bill to the clerk.
Picking up her tray, Katie headed over to an empty table and took her sandwich. The bench tilted and Katie groaned as the figure scooted next to her.
"Hey Gardner," A voice whispered in her ear.
Glaring Katie turned to the person next to her. "What do you want Stoll?"
"Why do you have to be so harsh Kates?" Travis mocked being hurt while clutching his chest. "That really hurt."
Rolling her eyes, Katie turned back to her lunch. "Seriously, what do you want?"
"You know that thing we were talking about earlier? I was just wondering when that was supposed to start happening." Travis smiled.
The green-eyed girl casually picked up her juice and sipped from it. "Whenever you please, however I do not know how we will start it."
"Well hurry up! My friends are staring at me like I'm crazy." Travis groaned.
Glares were shot towards Travis as Katie munched on the last bits of her salad. "Fine then, we'll talk about this later."
"You are so infuriating! You're smart, just think of something now!" Travis hissed.
Katie scoffed and stood up from her seat. She snatched her lunch tray up and headed towards the garbage can in the middle of the cafeteria. Travis grumbled and followed the brunette.
"Maybe you could figure it out yourself if you're so eager." Katie threw her hands up in the air.
"Do you honestly expect me to do that by myself?"
"Well, considering how big your head is, maybe you could find some sense hidden in all that hair." Katie crossed her arms.
"You're the one who is always bragging about your wonderful grades. I'm pretty sure you could do it by yourself."
By this time, the whole cafeteria had gone quiet and watched in amusement as the two figures bickered back and forth.
"I just don't understand why you can't conjure up a magical solution in your head!" Travis complained.
"Why are you even angry about this?" Katie yelled.
"Why won't you just help me with this?"
"I'm trying to! You just-" Travis rolled his eyes and grabbed Katie's face in his hands. Quickly pressing his lips to hers, Katie gasped. After a second or so, Travis pulled away and smirked at a shocked Katie. Everyone around the room stared in astonishment as Travis chuckled. Coming to her senses Katie moved back from Travis and slapped him right across the face before running out the door.
Clutching his face, Travis ran out after Katie. The students in the room stayed silent as they watched the boy follow the upset girl.
"Gardner?" Travis called through the corridors. Walking down the halls, Travis came upon a girl sitting on the ground, back against the wall breathing heavily.
"Katie?"
"What the hell is wrong with you Travis?" Katie screamed as she stood up. "You are the most irritating person I have ever met!"
Travis stood in front of the enraged girl as she continued yelling in his face. Sighing, Travis grabbed her pale hand and dragged her out into the parking lot. Once they were standing by the outside door, Travis held both of Katie's arms.
"Okay, I'm sorry. That was stupid of me and I really shouldn't have done it."
Katie narrowed her eyes at the boy and sighed. "Whatever."
Grinning, Travis followed Katie back into the school. "At least we have an excuse for our plan!"
"Shut up Stoll."
"Yes ma'am."
