The blind side of things

its a two way mirror

After school was finally over I skipped to my car

Yes I skipped

Like a little girl who sells brownies from door to door

I loved doing that when I was little

Then when I almost reached my car I dug in my pencil bag for my keys

Not there

I moved my hand to the other side of my pencil bag

Not there

"Damn it" I mumbled

"Skippy" said a voice

I looked back

Whoever called me Skippy was gonna be skipping all the way home

With some broken bones

But it was Jay and he was holding up something

My keys

"How did you...." I started as he walked to me

"You dropped them in science " he said

"Well thanks" I said reaching for the keys

He lifted them up over his head

"Hey" I said

"I'm driving" he said

"What? No I have to take Clar home" I said seeing Clar about to walk away

"Yeah but I can wait till my brother comes" she said as Jay turned to her

"Come on Clar" he said walking to the driver side of some rusted car

"Not mine" I said

Then he moved to the next car

It looked pretty simple and white

"Not mine" I repeated

Then he moved to a blue Mercedes

"I wish" I said

"Then which one" he said

I pointed to my black convertible Corvette and walked towards it

"That's yours?" he said surprised

"Yeah I know not the newest one" I said getting in the back seat

"Did you steal it?" he asked

"No" I said

"Then how did you end up with this" he said

"I just did" I said as I closed the back door

Jay got in the driver side and Clar got in the back with me

Jay started the car and drove to Clar's house

When we reached Clar's house she turned to me

"So um...you gonna pick me up tomorrow?" she asked

"No" said Jay looking in the rearview mirror

"Yes" I said

"We have our project due tomorrow and I don't want you to forget it at your house" Jay said

"I'm still picking you up" I said glaring at Jay

We were gonna talk

And I couldn't wait !!!

"Just call me" Clar said getting out of the car

"Skippy are gonna come sit up here so I don't look like a taxi driver?" Jay said before we pulled away from Clar's house
