What You See Is What You Get
One Step Forward Never Seems to Get You Nowhere
“Fries VS pudding.” Colleen picked up my fries and her pudding.
“Fries all the way! Salty, crispy and a golden potato!” I threw a fry in my mouth.
“Pudding, best as chocolate! Melts in your mouth, yummy and gooey!”
“But ketchup is awesome!” I said holding up the cute mini package of Heinz ketchup.
“Your point?” She asked putting a spoon full of pudding in her mouth.
“Well you simply cannot have pudding with ketchup! Unless you’re Ronnie Alcot.” We both looked at him, he was a nice and funny guy but so gross! We watched in horror as he slid a fry with pudding and mustard on it into his mouth.
“Gross!” Colleen yelled. Then picked up her Orange Juice box, just as her prince charming walked by… causing her to choke and spit it out everywhere!
“What is your obsession with this guy!” I walked to the concession stand and grabbed napkins. When I turned I felt a wave of cold rate down my chest.
“Fuck!” I yelled.
“That’s a good look on you.” It was Baker.
“What the fuck are you talking about!” I yelled in extreme anger. He smirked at me and pointed at my chest. First thing I saw was an empty bottle of Cream Soda. Then came my nightmare! My white Offspring quarter sleeve- MY FAVORITE SHIRT OKAY! Was now drenched with a faded pink STAIN and now,
“Wow! Cool bra.” Snickered Johnny as he walked by eating a hotdog. I swear steam flew out my ears. I quickly grabbed Colleen and ran out of the cafe.
“What did I say?” I faintly heard Johnny ask Zacky as we ran out.
“That stupid, cock, low life, scum bag, player, snot sniffing!” Colleen grabbed my arm as I scrubbed fast and hard trying to get the Cream Soda out of the shirt. Once the scrubbing started… so did the ranting.
“You will burn a whole in this shirt if you don’t quit scrubbing so, CALM DOWN WOMAN!” She ripped the wet shirt from my fingers. I had changed into my Green Day gym shirt.
“I can’t believe I ever liked that spineless-“ My mouth was covered by her doodled filled hand.
“You what?” My eyes scanned the bathroom for something to cover.
“I can’t believe I ever like spineless paper towels?” I tried in a quite voice.
“How come you can get to make fun of me for liking Jimmy but you’ve liked Zacky this whole time!”
“I- no I didn’t!”
“Well then, since when?” She asked me her hands on her hips.
“Um, well…freshman year.” I mumbled. Her face lit up with a grin.
“I so have something on you!” She declared.
“But I don’t like him anymore! So ha!” I pointed at her. She jumped up and pointed back.
“But you did!” I glared.
“Come on.” I grumbled pulling her out of the bathroom. Just as I stuffed my soaking wet shirt in my locker, the beginning of the rest of my life invited me to my undoing.
