A dog barked as Tammy walked by. She had begun her journey home just ten minutes before. She opened the front door to a pale blue house. She closed the door behind her and headed up to her room. She tossed her backpack across the room and flipped on her computer. Just then the phone rang. Tammy jumped and turned to look at the phone.
"H-hello?" – Tammy
"Hi Tammy." It was Kailie.
"Oh, it's you," - Tammy
"Well sorry, didn't mean to disappoint you."- Kailie
"No, I thought it was JC." - Tammy
"Wait a minute, you mean to tell me that you are expecting a call from JC? Thee JC Chasez?" Kailie asked in disbelief.
"Uh, yea he is supposed to call for this project that we have to do together." - Tammy
"Ohhh." - Kailie
"Yea." - Tammy
"Well then I better go, don't wanna clog up the phone line. I'll talk to you online. Later." Kailie
"Bye." She hung up the phone and turned to her computer. She signed on to AIM (an instant messaging system by AOL). Kailie IMed her.
kAiLiEgUrL: hi hi
Matrix GirLie: Howdy
kAiLiEgUrL: well I was just asking.
kAiLiEgUrL: man, you are sooooo lucky
Matrix GirLie: why?
kAiLiEgUrL: you get to do a project for a whole week with one of the hottest guys in school. I heard he was gunna be the King for the Olympic games and everyone knows you are going to be the queen....
Matrix GirLie: I can hardly call that luck, the last thing I need is to be paired up with some pretty boy jock whose head is probably full of air anyway, aaaaaand haylee is gunna end up being the queen. God knows what that is going to do for her already over sized ego.
kAiLiEgUrL: if haylee gets it I will kill her for you.
Matrix GirLie: I don't care if she gets it. Ms. P is gunna pick her anyway cuz haylee sucks up to her 24/7 aaand she is on steroids.
Matrix GirLie: hey maybe she will overdose and blow up....
kAiLiEgUrL: but I thought you were Ms. P's favorite
Matrix GirLie: well apparently not, I figure that people shouldn't like me because I kiss their feet everyday. I have been slacking off in PE lately to see what Ms. P would do and oddly enough my thesis was right.
kAiLiEgUrL: I hope she does blow up.
Tammy heard the front door close. Her mom was home. Aaron followed his mother through the door. Tammy walked out of her room and downstairs to where her mom was.
"I'm gunna order pizza OK?" – Tammy
"Sure," her mom replied exhaustedly. She went back up stairs to her room. She sat in her office chair and twirled around toward the phone. Her hand was not three inches above it when it rang. She picked it up slowly placed it next to her ear.
"Hello?" There was a soft tremble in her voice.
"Hi, may I please speak to Tammy?" She swallowed hard.
"Yes, this is she." - Tammy
"Oh hi, this is JC from school." - JC
"Hi." –Tammy. There was a moment of deafening silence.
"OK, so how are we going to work on the project? Should we meet at someone's house?" –JC. It almost sounded as if he was reading out loud.
"Yea sure, whatever is fine." –Tammy. She could hear a slightly deep voice on the other end trying to conceal his presence.
" Um ok, how about tomorrow at my house? Chris is gunna come with his partner too if that is ok." -JC
"Uhh, sure, fine with me. How do I get to your house?" - Tammy
"I think we are all going to walk over together. So I will find you find you after school." - JC
"Ok, what time do you think we will be done?" - Tammy
"6 or 6:30 most likely." - JC
"Ok that's fine." - Tammy
"Ok then, I guess I will see you tomorrow." - JC
"Ok, bye." - Tammy
"Later." Tammy forgot about ordering the pizza after she hung up. She also forgot about Kailie who had signed off because she had been neglected. Though after a while of thinking she became hungry and called Papa John's Pizza Place.
