Chapter 13: The Book

Rachel looked around as Principal Slade called her up to do the book challenge. Rachel balanced the book easily on her head while running around the track, because the object of the game was to see which grade could balance a large dictionary on their head while going around the track for a mile.

Rachel raced around the track as fast as she could, but still let the book balance on her head. Rachel was sweating, because of how the game tempted her to win so badly. She kept the book stand up easily, because she had a flat head. Just like a table, her mother had said.

She was teased by the twelfth graders who were much slower than her. She ignored them all. They were walking so slowly like no one seemed to care much about them. Only "boos" were heard. No twelfth grader was fast enough to catch up to her speed. Right now, they were about six laps behind!

Kori cheered for her BFF while Gar cheered for his own girlfriend. "GO RACHEL!" They really care for people who care about them. A ball was thrown at Rachel, but she ducked. She loves it when people make things harder for her to compete in. They are competitive, but they are really close to nothing when Rachel was around. Rachel smirked at the booing twelfth graders.

"You guys are not athletic at all!" she shouted to them.

"You are so unfair!" she heard someone yell.

"OMG! She's super horrible!"

"She is never going to make it."

"That girl is too whimsy to make it."

"BOO!"

Rachel didn't care. She was too focused on the finish line.

"See ya suckers!" she called to the twelfth graders. Then, she passed the finish line, and won the book race!

"Good job Friend Rachel! You got a medal like me!" Kori exclaimed.

"I love it when you win babe," Gar whispered. Rachel laughed and pecked him on the lips.

"You always make me laugh."

"Well, you inspired me to make you laugh."

"I love you Gar."

"Is Rachel too romantic again?"

"No I'm not!"

"Oh yes she is!"

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes babe, you do get really romantic from time to time. Well, actually every day. Now, do you want a kiss from me?"

"Yes." Then, she pulled him, and kissed him passionately.

"You are romantic again."

"I know now."

"Oh Rachel, you love my face, do you?"

"No I don't. I love your heart, love, happiness, joy, and humor."

"Really Rachel? Only my personality?"

"Nope."

"I'll win the next round of the rally for you, okay?"

"See? You're generous too! Yah, you say you win, you will win. Monkey see, monkey do."

"Rachel, when have you ever appreciated me?"

"Always."
