~ Dee ~

-          Hey Dee!, Karlie said looking at me.

-          Hi Karlie!, I said quietly.

-          Well this is good!, she said trying not to laugh.

-          In a bit over my head I can’t even see my hat., Clay said looking at Dee.

-          Put your hat on the right way and you may see it., Karlie said still smiling.

-          We can explain., I said looking at her as she laughed.

-          Dude I seriously don’t care! Chris  it took you two long enough. I’m going bye!, she said.

-          Bye!?, I said confused.

-          How long you give it till the other’s know?, Clay asked me.

-          Monday they will all know., I said.

-          Oh well! I don’t care., Clay shrugged.

-          Neither do I!, I said smiling.

* Monday Morning *

-          Good morning people!, I said as I sat down with my friends before school started.

-          How you feeling today?, Bek asked trying not to laugh.

-          Hangin in?, Buffy added.

-          Yeah Dee! How are you?, Karlie asked raising her eyebrow.

-          I’m fine., I said confused none of them asked about Clay.

-          What time did you end up going home?, Karlie asked me smiling.

-          Just after you., I said looking at her.

-          Didn’t you leave after me?, Bek asked.

-          Nope!, Karlie said trying not to laugh.

-          What’s going on?, Buffy asked confused.

-          Tell them Dee! For Christ sake! Cause I can’t hold it in for much longer! And you know I can’t!!!, Karlie said looking at me pleading.

-          You haven’t told them?

-          NO!!! Tell them yourselves!, Karlie said.

-          Tell us what?, Bek asked shaking her head.

-          Yeah what’s the GO?!, Buffy asked.

-          Yeah Dee! What is the GO?!, Karlie asked trying not to laugh.

-          Well… um… I…, I started to explain.

-          You?, Buffy asked trying to get it out of me.

-          Clay kissed me while we were talking. And, it kinda didn’t stop. But, Karlie caught us kissing and we decided to give a go at dating and well, so far it’s going ok because its only been two days. But his ex is still calling him and trying to get back together, but he said no, and all this crap

-          I only got two words in that. Clay and Karlie., Bek said.

-          God Dee! Spill your life story while you’re at it!, Karlie said looking at me.

-          Basically you and Clay are a thing?, Buffy asked putting two and two together.

-          Yeah…, I said quietly.

-          FINALLY!, Bek screamed out which made people look at us.

-          Turn around or take a picture, Buffy said looking at people.

-          Never seen anyone get excited before?!, Bek added.

-          Sound monitors., Karlie muttered making us laughed.

* In Physical Education Class *

-          Come on Dee climb!, Bek called out for moral support.

-          Miss I find that making us climb a rope to the ceiling is not making progress., Karlie said to our teacher.

-          That is only because you can’t do it., she said smiling.

-          You’d be surprised!, Bek said laughing.

-          Don’t laugh Miss Baker! You will be next up that rope., our teacher said.

-          This far enough?, I asked getting 3/4 of the way up.

-          Yes that’s fine! But by the end of this semester every one of you will be able to climb that rope. We are working on your strength and flexibility and endurance., our teacher started telling the whole class.

-          I know that health is a good thing Miss but this?!, Buffy asked sighing.

-          Why do you girls always complain?

-          Because it’s in our nature?, Karlie asked trying not to laugh.

-          Alright Karlie! Instead of using your mouth why don’t you use your hands? You’re next., our teacher said pointing to the rope.

-          Up that? Sure!, Karlie asked smiling.

-          Will she do it?, I asked Bek who also was smiling.

-          She can do it!, Bek said looking at Karlie grabbing the rope.

-          Now it’s working your upper body., the teacher explained as Karlie started the climb.

-          OH miss this is hard!, Karlie said sarcastically which was lost on the teacher.

-          Come on Karlie! Are you even trying?, Buffy asked laughing.

-          I got to try? Oh that’s it!, Karlie said climbing up rather fast.

-          Shit!, I said shocked.

-          Is that how it is done?, Karlie asked as she swung from the rope at the very top.

-          Come down Karlie!, the teacher said.

-          How did she do that?, I asked Bek.

-          She climbs up to Ryan’s room a bit., she said as she was stretching.

-          Stop talking girls! Dee try touching your toes., the teacher said.

-          I hate PE!, I said shaking my head.

-          Unless its physical exercise with a male?, Bek asked me smiling.

-          Would you shut up!, I said blushing.

-          She’s all red! It is love!, Bek sung.

-          God!, I sighed.
