When Two Different World's Collide

Chapter 1: James

I waved my hand at him. "Yeah yeah I know."

"Aw we love both of you," exclaimed Ike, throwing his arms around our shoulders. James easily shrugged him off. "We still down for the diner today?"

"Of course. We've been doing this since the beginning of the year Ike," I told him, shrugging his arm off myself.

"I know beautiful but I ask only to make sure you're going," he retorted, throwing a wink my way.

I smiled, feeling the heat rise to my face. Luckily you couldn't really ever tell when I blushed since I was pretty tan. "Corny."

"Only for you sweetheart."

James rolled his eyes. "Can you not flirt with the love of my life in front of me?"

My heart beat faster but I ignored it. "Love of your life? I thought it was Sarah?" I teased.

Sarah was his first date. James was her first ever date also. On that lovely date, she got so nervous she puked on James. Being the nice guy he is, told her it wasn't a big deal even though he was disgusted that he even got puked on. Who wouldn't? Sarah was mortified though. She never really talked to James again. I did feel bad for her. She was a really nice person.

It was his turn to glare at me, while Ike laughed. "Oh fuck you Marcella." Everybody knew the story.

"James Language." Mr.Hunt doesn't care for much but as a formality as a teacher he gets onto us for cursing and such.

"Sorry," James said, making a sheepish face.

"Hey! If I haven't tapped that, you aren't allowed either," Ike exclaimed.

Ike was a good friend of mine but James just tolerated him. There are times Ike really pushes his buttons. So his flirting is all good fun. It irritated James we knew that much. Ike is also the only person who knows I like James.

"Shut it Ike. No one is touching my girl," James said, turning in his chair, giving Ike a peeved look. "Stop talking about her like that."

"I can speak for myself you know?"

"Not against horny guys like Ike."

"I'm not horny. I'm just attracted to Marcella," Ike defended himself, looking offended. I laughed. Ike was something else.

"Right," James said.

The bell finally rang, making us stand up and leave.

James turned, "Bye Mr.Hunt! Have a great weekend."

Mr.Hunt looked up at James amused. "Thank you James. See you Monday," he said, smiling and shaking his head at the same time.

I laughed. "Kiss ass."

"I think you mean ass kisser," Ike corrected, throwing his arm around my shoulder once again.

I didn't mind Ike doing the things he does. I knew who his crush was, he knew mine.

James shrugged. "I am. I'll admit that."

"So you admit you're an ass?" Ike asked.

"Shut it Ike."

Ikr smirked down at me. I shook my head, laughing.

We walked to our lockers seeing as that was our last class of the day and it's Friday. Our Fridays consisted of going to the diner after school when we didn't have football games to go to as Ike had asked to make sure and then going to my house for movies.

"You're giving me a ride right?" I asked, changing out books I did and didn't need. Ike waited patiently for us since he never goes to his locker, carrying everything in his backpack through out the day.
