~Abs~
Lori and I waited in the bowling alley for Sean, Kelly, Addie and J. We couldn’t wait to see their faces when they saw us. We looked so good! True we kept getting weird looks from people, but we still looked good.
And we had even found cool bowling balls. Lori’s had a big spider on the inside and was a kinda clear green. Mine was blue with cool designs painted all over it.
Addie took care of all the people who looked at us strange. She had brought her slingshot of course and was really good at hiding what she was doing.
“Abs, look over there. Its Ritch, Billie, Scott and some chick.” Lori pointed out. She drew back her slingshot and sent a marble flying at Ritch. We quickly turned around and became very interested in our bowling balls.
~Ritch~
“What is it with all these marbles being thrown at me?” I whined to Billie. All last night I had gotten pegged with marbles and now today too. I began rubbing my arm where I had gotten hit.
“I don’t know. But look it’s Abs and some girl.” Billie pointed to the other side of the bowling alley. Sure enough it was Abs and Lori. And wearing some mighty strange clothes I might add.
“Let’s go say hi!” Scott said. He took off to the other side of the bowling alley and jumped on Abs’ back causing Abs to fall over. Abs hit Scott and then Lori hit Scott. Scott became offended and waved for us to come over.
Billie and I walked over to were Abs and Lori were. “Hey there Ritchie! How’s it going? If I had known you were going to be here I woulda brought my sister.” Lori told me with a smile. “I know how well the two of you get along.”
Billie looked at me strangely. “Her sister!?!?”
~Kelly~
“Addie hurry up! We’re already late as is!” I screamed into her room. “I’m almost ready! Calm down!” She yelled back. I sat down on the couch quite angry with her. We were supposed to be there 10 minutes ago, but noooo Addie had to take her own dear sweet time getting ready. Usually she was pretty fast, but not today.
About five minutes later she waltzed out of her room. I must say I’m not impressed with what she picked out and the amount of time it took. She had on a pair of jeans a bright red t-shirt and a pair of trainers.
“It took you that long to get into that!” I asked her. Addie merely shrugged her shoulders and walked into the kitchen to get her bag.
“Are you ready?” She asked me. “Or do we need to keep Sean waiting some more?” I sent her a look. We then climbed into her car and sped away to the bowling alley.
~Sean~
I was a nervous wreck! Kelly was supposed to be here 15 minutes ago. “Do you think something happened?” I asked Lori.
“No. She’s fine. She’ll be here soon. Kelly’s a big girl. She can handle herself. Now let me get back to my bowling.” Lori said disgustedly. She picked up her ball and threw it down the lane. She got a strike. Abs and her high-fived and did some weird handshake thing then kissed.
“Oh look there they are!” Scott pointed to the door where Kelly and Addie had just walked in. He jumped up and down and ran to get them. He kissed Addie on the cheek and hugged her. Strange though, he brought a girl with him today.
Kelly looked great. I liked her so much. I couldn’t believe she actually liked me back and not one of the other guys. Most girls usually go for one of the other lads before they go for me.
I smiled at her and she smiled back and waved at me. “What?! Why is she here!?” J exclaimed when he saw Addie.
“I’m here to bowl. What does it look like?” Addie told him as she sat down and began lacing up her bowling shoes. “And another thing, I’m gonna kick your arse too.” She stood up and picked up a ball.
“We’ll see about that.” J challenged her. He went and picked up his ball too. “Let the games begin.”
