*************************************************************************************
I bang my head on the table. Nobody notices. Everybody else is probably asleep too. I stayed up late last night texting Matt. That was after Josie went home of course. She came over around seven and stayed till about ten thirty. We did stalked some little kids, talked, and played semi night games with the neighborhood boys. It was still light out when we were playing, but that probably worked in Josie's favor, cause a sophomore named Nathan kept asking me about her after she left. Hey, shes got more game than I give her credit for.
But before for the chaos of the night games me and Joise went to our favorite talking place, the carousel, or if your Josie, the spinny thingy. We always talk here,when you lay on your back you watch the sky spinning and you have the courage to say anything. I feels like your talking to the sky, the sky always listens, and so does Josie. I lay and watch the sky spin as I tell her about my fail with Jonny.
"I feel like an idiot. I can't even get anyone to go with me to a football game." Did I just say that out loud? This damn carousel, sometimes I say too much under its comfort.
Thats when Josie jumps up to a sitting position. "I know!" I don't have to see her face to know shes beaming at me. "we will get everyone to go! It would be so much fun!"
Everyone, that means Matt too... Maybe.... No, no, and she thinks i'm insane. "And by everyone, you mean?" I ask slowly, trying not to get overly excited myself.
"Oh, I don't know... Who's easy to bribe?"
Okay, now shes thinking clearly."I don't know." I sigh "I usually use force."
"Thats it!" I can imagine a light bulb appearing above her head."I got dirt on Anna and Vera, so I can get them to go, how bout you?"
Realy, if we are using dirt, I can get anyone to go, butI just want one person, "Matt." I say, "I can get Matt to go."
"Oh this is going to be great!" shes practically jumps up and down in her accomplishment. I smile at her giddiness.
Later that night I texted Matt, telling her Josie's brilliant plan. She agreed to come even before I brought up the fact that I had dirt on her, oh and let me tell you I got a lot of it. But damn, she agreed so fast, it took the fun out of it. I pouted and rambled on and on about random topics with her till I fell asleep.
The bell rings and my eyes pop open. I didn't notice they closed. Everyone is leaving for lunch. I jump up and yank my ear buds out. I love science class, they should just change the name to nap class. I bet a lot more people would take it then.
************************************************************************************************************
At lunch we take a final head count on who's coming. Anna and Vera agreed too quickly, specially Vera who kept glaring at Josie. Now I really want to know what Josie has over Vera. Josie seemed satisfied with the amount of people we had recruited, but we were all surprised when Marry said she would be there.
"Seriously?!" Josie demanded with a million watt smile on her face.
"Ya, But me and my mom are working security." Shes pauses and thinks,"So is your mom."
Josie tilts her head and confusion, and then it hits her, "Oh, ya! Thats right! Shedid saysomething about that!"
I face palm. The fact that something like this happens daily is unbelievable. Sometimes I wounder if Josie is actually a blonde.
I turn my atention to the conversation on the other side of the table. I immediately wish I hadn't. Matt is shoving something from Ava's gross looking tray into Petta's mouth.
"Oh, poor Petta!" I sheirk.
Alice looks at me with her cold eye that isn't covered by her jet black hair, and says with an unshifting, serious face , "But, its fun."
I look over at Petta who is bagging me with her eyes to make them stop. "well.." I sigh,"If Alice is having fun....."
"YAY!!!" Matt screams and starts mixing her food on Ava's tray. Ava looks down at her disgusting mess of a lunch, shrugs, and grabs some of Alices food to mix in with it. I think I see Alice smile a evil grin, but my eyes could be playing tricks.
By, the end of lunch Petta looks green and Matt is smiling happily. Isn't my love great?!
***********************************************************************************************************************
Im practically jumping up and down on the car ride to get Matt. I could barley sit through my classes today. At lunch all we talked about was how awesome tonight is going to be. I invited Alice, Ava, and Petta, but Ava and Petta were busy and just the thought of going made Alicesvisible eyego wide in terror. Shes not a crowd person.
So its just me and Matt meeting Josie, Anna, Vera, and Marry there. Me and Matt walk through the gates when someone taps me on the shoulder. I look behind me and see Marry standinga head and a half shorter than me with her arms crossed and a security jacket on.
"You look like a supsious person" she says with a serious face." Im going to have to search you."
I bonk her on the head and tower over her. Does she really think she can be threatening to me? Shes about to protest, but someone calls her name and she pouts back to her post.
Me and Matt sit down on the hill and talk about random things until Josie and her gang find us.
"Well, its about time!" I exclaim.
"Sorry, but we were stopped by Marry on the way in." Josie explains,"She wouldn't let us go through unless we bought her some coco."
It was quite cold tonight. Matt the smart one who showed up with a long sleeved shirt and a sweat shirt gave warm blooded me her signature black and white striped sweat shirt to borrow. It was warm and smelled like her. She slightly blushed when I said that. I had never seen her blush before.
last five minutes in the fourth quarter. Minnetonka was ahead of Edina by fifteen points. Tonight was the first time Minnetonka would win against Edina on our homecoming, the first time Matt came to homecoming, and the first time Matt rested her head on my shoulder.
With a win obvious Josie and everybody went to pester Marry until their ride came. Me and Matt just stayed where we were and I let her doze on my shoulder. Apparently she was playing Zelda all last night and forgot to sleep. How do you forget to sleep?!
I scan the crowds out of boredom. A dark skinned face stands out. His brown hair contrasts her bright blonde hair.
"Bastard" I mutter. I forget that Matts so close to my mouth.
"Who?" She looks up at me.
"Just a boy."
"Jhonny?"
"How did you-
"I saw them a while ago, I didn't want to upset you though."
"Its alright, I know in the end all guys are bastards." I gasp remembering that Matts dating Connor.
Almost as if reading my mind she says "Don't worry, Connors a complete doosh." Shes now sitting up and looking out at the crowds slowly leaving. And I think I know why shes not meeting my eyes.
"Oh, I bet he can't be that ba-"
"He can, trust me." She pulls her knees up to her chest and wraps her arms around her self. I take off her sweat shirt and wrap it around her. She still doesn't look at me. She doesn't like peopleseeing her cry.
"whats wrong with him?" I ask to get her talking.
"Every thing" she shoots back."He doesn't like me at all. Maybe I should just end it."
"Of course he likes you, I mean-"
"NO HE DOESN'T!"
"how do you kno-"
"I just do okay?"
"how bad can he be?"
"Horrible!"
"How?!"
"Lets just say I would rather be kissing you, than that doosh!" She whips towards me with her eyes wet and full of rage.
"Really?" I ask shyly. It only takes her a moment to realize what she just said and she whips her head away from me. But not before I can see a blush spread crossed her face. Twice in one day. Could it be..... or am I just getting my hopes up.
"seriously! That's how bad it is!" she exclaims still not facing me.
"You know, when you blush its a real turn on for me." I keep my face serious as she whips back around with her eyes wide. Before she can reply my cell phone rings.
"Hello?" I answer with out looking away from Matts eyes.
"Where are you?!" Its my mother, I hadn't realized how late it had gotten. There was practically no one left on the hill. I got up as my mother kept nagging me on the phone. I start walking towards the parking lot with Matt slowly following me.
We were silent the whole way to her house. When we get to her house I was about to say good night when she look up at me for the first time since we were at the field.
Her eyes were no longer sad, the were serious. "I'll text you." she says firmly, letting me know that we weren't done with this conversation. She shuts the door before I can say anything. I get in the car and my phone goes off. Well, that was fast I think as I open my phone to read the message.
Matt: What the hell was that? A turn on?
What can't I have turn ons?
Blushing?
You've never done it before, I like it
perv
whaaa? me?
ya you! so you bi or something
I hesitate before I text back. I don't really know. I haven't ever had feelings like this. But I have loved a boy once, so that disqualifies me for a lesbian.
ya, i guess. u
pansexual
what that again?
I don't really classify people by gender. I more look at people by personality
yet you still went out with a complete bastard... makes perfect sense
Oh shut up, nobodys perfect
I get out of the car and smile at her text. I go strait to my room, turn the lights off and climb up to my loft.
well i know that. im like the walking definition of imperfect.
your perfect to me
Mt heart skips a beat when I read this. I don't really know how to respond, so I just type thanks? your standards must be low
not really their pretty high. i think im going to dump Connor.
why?
i would really like the chance to kiss you
My heart skips as I read it over and over again. This isn't happening. Just yesterday I was fantasizing about her and now she wants to kiss me?! its not like I don't want to kiss her, I mean I really want to kiss her and all, but this is just too easy! Isn't there a catch? Some sorta struggle I have to over come to win her love? Can we really both love each other and that be that? Im so happy, I really don't know why I am questioning this, so I type back. Now I really want to kiss u
why are you always so mushy?
you started this!
oh do you really want to go there ms. turn ons
I laugh. Matt always can turn something serious into a laughing matter.
so.... can i call u my GF? I ask curious to see if she is actually serious.
sure...
I jump up and bang my head on the ceiling. Imp pretty sure this is how a heart attack feels, except I like this feeling in my chest. I jump down from my loft and look at the time. Midnight. Oh well, she should still be up. I quickly dial Josie’s Number.
“Yo" She says, her voice a bit groggy. Maybe I was wrong.
I don't waste any time, "Ohmygodyouwillneverguesswhatjusthappened!!!"
“Hmm?"
I have a hard time believing she understood a single word I just said, but I go on anyway,” Come on! Guess!"
“I don't know." I sense a bit of irritability in her voice. Maybe I did wake her up. Well the last thing I wanted to do is piss her off, so I just tell her. "We are going out!"
Who?!"
I can tell that she is confused. Come on! Do I have to spell it out for her?
She’s the only one that knows I have a crush on Matt.
“Me and Madison! We are officially going out! When she says nothing, I keep on talking. "weweretalkingandshewaslikeConnorsatotaldooshandshewouldratherbekissingmeandthenweweretextingaboutstuffandallandnow She’s my girlfriend!"
It’s a second before Josie responds,"Umm...wow...that’s, that’s great!"
“You really think that?!" I probably should have called her in the morning when she was more awake
”Ya,
Totally! You guys are really cute!"
“Really?"
“ya!" It seems the shock woke her. “Imreallygladyouthinkthatcauseiwasworriedyouweregoonajudgemefornotbeingstraightorsomething.
Well, Idon'tknowmaybeimjustparanoid, or something."
"Don't be! I would never judge you!" Okay, so maybe she can understand me.
“Ya know Jois, your really a great friend."
“I know!"
I lay in bed with both Madison's and Josie’s words in my head. For the first time in a long while I fall asleep with a smile on my face.
