Chapter 13- A New Problem
(Coryn's POV)
'Gill? Seriously? What sort of crappy name is that?' I thought. I nearly burst out laughing. But, I controlled myself at the last second, clearing my throat nonchalantly. I shook his hand back and said, "Nice to meet you."
"Well, you aren't the most gorgeous woman I've ever seen, but I guess you're okay." Gill said, his face devoid of any emotion whatsoever as he checked me out. It was kind of creepy. And what he had just said seriously pissed me off.
"What the hell is wrong with you? That's a horrible thing to say to someone!" I said firmly to him, snatching my hand away from his pale one.
"Wow, someone's got quite the temper. I was only speaking the truth." Gill said, shrugging. He also smiled a bit at the burning look I was giving him. I really had an urge to slap him. "Well, Miss Anger Management Issues, I'll be picking you up tomorrow at around ten o'clock. You'd best be ready by then." Gill said. His overly elegant way of talking and his complete disregard for my apparent feelings towards him was still pissing me off.
"Wait a second, mister! Why the heck would I want to-" the mayor then cut me off by quickly pushing me out the door and closing it behind me. Wow. What a wonderful family. What the heck had just happened? I was so confused.
I stood there in front of their big wooden door for a while, utterly flabbergasted. He'd pick me up at ten tomorrow? For what? The festival? Ewwww. I would rather die than go anywhere with that annoying snob. I rolled my eyes and yelled through the door, "Don't even bother coming to pick me up tomorrow! I'm not going, especially not with the likes of YOU!" Then I walked away.
I stopped for some breakfast at the Brass Bar since the Hamiltons kicked me out before giving me any food. Chase, sadly, wasn't there in the mornings though. I opened the door and the little bell rang. Right when I stepped inside, Kathy, being the super ninja she was, jumped in front of me out of nowhere, scaring the living daylights out of me.
I gasped, trying to catch my breath as I regained my composure. After a couple of seconds, I said,
"Kath, you really need to stop doing that."
"I know, I know." she said, smiling widely. "Anyway, how's it going Coryn? What brings you here today?"
"Everything's going great, and I just came here to eat because the mayor dragged me to town to meet his son." I made a face when I mentioned Gill. Kathy laughed heartily and said,
"Oh my goddess, that's hilarious. I'm guessing you guys didn't exactly hit it off, huh?" She laughed some more. "I don't blame you though! He's a snob of epic proportions.'' she said, nodding sagely.
"Yeah, he is. He's even forcing me to go with him to the Summer Festival tomorrow. But I sure as heck don't wanna go with him!" I said, annoyed.
"Ugh, that's a problem, huh? Why don't you just fake being sick then?" Kathy suggested. I sighed.
"But I want to go. That's the problem here. There's already someone I'm planning on going with!"
Kathy grinned widely, moving her eyebrows up and down. "And who might that be?"
"Kathy, you already know who I'm talking about." I grumbled.
"Do I? I don't recall." Kathy teased.
I pushed her a little. "I wanna go with Chase, dummy." Kathy smiled and held my hand as she jumped up and down.
"Yay! I'm so happy for you guys! Chase told me all about how you guys are dating now. It's so adorable!" she squealed. Then her face darkened a bit. "But I can't believe you didn't tell me right away. What kind of friend are you?!" She mumbled dejectedly, pouting.
"Aw, I'm sorry Kath! I totally forgot. To make it up to you, we can have ice cream sundaes for breakfast and I'll pay for both. Deal?" I said.
"YES! ICE CREAM! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH CORYN!" Kathy squealed, glomping me. And so, we both fell onto the floor.
After Kathy and I finished our heaping sundaes, paid for them, and had a successful burping contest (I won), it was time to get serious.
"So. What are you going to do about this Gill problem?" Kathy asked me.
"I dunno... I just wanna go with my boyfriend! Why must my life be so difficult?" I grumbled, my head lying on the table.
Kathy frowned a little. "That little snob! I mean, I know he's the mayor's son and all, but that doesn't give him the right to boss people around like the freaking Queen of England." she scowled.
"You're right. I think I'll just tell him off and stay inside when he comes to pick me up. I kinda want to slap him too... maybe I can fit it in somewhere." I pondered.
Kathy laughed. "I'd like to see that! That's a great idea." she said.
After talking for a couple more hours about random crap with Kathy, I finally decided that I had to leave. I said bye to Kathy, hugged her and left, smiling and in a great mood. Then I headed to Flute Fields to give Chase his marmalade.
I love having crazy friends. They always know how to make you feel better:) Lol, well, please review! All reviews are loved and accepted and stuff! Even meanish ones! (But I'd rather not get one of those...) Hehe next chapter should be up this weekend! Look out for it! Thanks!
