"Why does school have to last all day?",Lily asked Lana. "You have no idea.",Lana replied to her thinking of the call she knew she was going to get when she got home.The call made by a special someone.She laughed as the bell rang.She gathered her books and walked to her locker. "What are you so happy about?",Lily asked when she realized that Lana had been smiling the whole day.She knew Lana wasn't too giddy about school. "Oh nothing.................",Lana replied smiling even more.Lily looked at her friend in a weird disgust.Both girls put their stuff away and gathered what was important.Then they walked through the main halls of their school.They headed to the main doors and walked with the shining sun beating down on them.Lily departed for her house while Lana rushed home the other way. When Lana got home,she saw her answering machine blinking.She squealed at the site.Then she realized what she was doing and told herself to calm down.She laughed at herself and pressed the recieve button. "Hey hon'!I'm not going to be home-",Lana's mother said through the speaker of the machine.She sighed and knew what she was going to say.She knew shewas going to stay at work longer than usual trying to get that raise she had always wanted and deserved.She sighed when she heard that was the only message given.She looked at the clock and saw it was only 6:00 and that he might be at a rehearsel or something.She groaned and wished she could call him.But she didn't want to waste her time leaving a message on the machine like before.She went to her room and thought of Chris.She thought of all kinds of dates they could go on.Dinner at Russo on the pier,go to a cinema and watch a love story movie,have a moonlit walk on the beach.She stopped whenshe thought of the moonlit walk on the beach. "Ugh!!!!!!!!! I'm turning into a HOPELESS ROMANTIC.",Lana screamed to herself and started to laugh after what she had said.She laid on her bed and thought of more ideas to torture herself with. ********************************************************* "Finally!Home at last!",Chris said as he walked to the phone.He looked at the answering machine and saw the light not blinking.He sighed and picked up the phone.He walked up the stairs to his room.When he got to his room,he saw the picture with him and his ex.He couldn't help the heart ache he felt at that moment.But he pushed it aside and dialed Lana's number.As the phone was ringing,he walked over to the picture and flipped it to it's blank side. ********************************************************* The phone rang and Lana rushed to answer it not even looking at the caller ID. "Hello?",Lana asked.She decided to look at the called ID after she said hello.She saw Chris' number on it and almost shrieked. "Hey,Lan'...........it's Chris.",Chris spoke through the reciever.Lana laughed. "Hey!What's up?" "Nothin really.............you? "Ditto.............so..........." "So.................",Chris said making him feel uncomfortable.Lana felt the same way.She gave up and asked,"You know when you asked me if I wanted to go to the movies.I say yes...........".With this,Chris gave a sigh of relief.He laughed and told her to meet him in FYE at 2:00 pm on Saturday..........the day after tomorrow.She smiled and accepted.He laughed once more and they talked throughout the night. ********************************************************* After,a while Chris told Lana he had to get off .Lana ok-ed him and they both said good night and hung up.Once they had hung up,Chris dialed Greg's number. When Greg picked up,Chris told him to meet him in front of the mall at 11:00 the next day.Greg was too tired to say why so he told Chris ok.They both then hung up. ********************************************************** "Hey,Greg!Wuz up,man?",Chris called out to Greg as he joggedtowards him. "Nothing really...... just kinda beat.Last night,Nicole asked my mom if she could go on dates.In front of me,too!",Greg answered as he walked to the door of the mall. "So......why did you want me to meet you at the mall?",Greg asked as Chris looked at the bouquet of flowers in the flower shop. "Oh right........I called Lana yesterday and we are going on a date on Saturday and I need your help............",Chris said still looking at all the bouquets of flowers. "With what?I'm no expert at dating!I'll probably ruin your date and with a girl like her........that would be the biggest mistake of my entire life .Especially if I ruined it for you,man.",Greg answered as he took Chris' arm and pulled him from going into the Flower shop.Chris laughed and nodded his head. "Maybe I should go ask.....................Matt?",Chris asked.Greg nodded and laughed as they headed towards back towards the main doors.They joked around for little bit before they parted.Greg headed home and Chris headed over to Matt's house. ********************************************************* "Miss Lana!We are in Dreamland are we?What are we dreaming about today?",Ms.Rodriquez asked as Lana finally snapped out of her daydream. "Sorry...............Ms.Rodriquez.",Lana replied to her as she nodded. Then she went on to teach as Lana paid more attention to her history Lesson .Then the bell rang and she gathered her stuff and headed towards the door.She felt a hand touch her shoulder. "Hey Lana!What were you dreaming about?",one of the biggest flirts in the school said as she laughed heading towards the doors that led her to freedom. "Oh....you know the usual,Tyler...............guys and music!",Lana answered as she thought of the only guy on her mind and the only song she could hear was, Someone To Hold Me Tonight.She smiled as he heard Tyler laugh. "Really?Am I in the 'guys' category?"he said laughing even more than before.Lana just shook her head in disgust.He just laughed and put one arm around her.She froze at the touch and slowly pushed his arm away.He looked at her as she pushed his arm off her shoulder.He just slowed his walking pace and then started to chat her up as he walked her home. When they reached the corner before her house,they stopped. "Um...............Thank You for walking home with me.But this is where we are to part.See you tomorrow,Tyler.",Lana said to him as he looked into her eyes. "I never told you this but, you have beautiful eyes.I just can't take MY eyes off of them.Ok.......well.........I guess I'll see you tomorrow. Bye.",Tyler said as he started to walk away.Lana amazed at what he had just said,stood their like a grinning idiot."No wait! I am a grinning idiot!",Lana thought to herself as she giggled and walked to her house. ********************************************************* |
