Fourth period ended and I headed to the front door to meet Erica. I waited about 5 minutes until she finally showed up. "Let’s get going!" I said as I walked out of the front door. Erica followed. We both got in my car a drove to my house. "Wow, you have a gorgeous house!" exclaimed Erica with her grey eyes just starring at my house. "Thanks." I unlocked my door and we walked in. I dropped my keys on the table beside the door and walked to the kitchen. Erica walked slowly behind me with her eyes still wandering around my house. "Do you want something to eat?" I asked trying to snap her back into reality. "No thanks, I’m good for now." I turned on the radio and a song was playing that I had never heard before. Erica immediately started to sing. "So if you your lonely you know I am here waiting for you." Erica kept on singing. Her voice was so strong. "You know this song?" I asked. All I could do was laugh. "Yah, its Franz Ferdinand. They are a German band. The song is called take me out. I want you to take me out. I know I will be leaving here, I know I will be leaving here, I know I will be leaving with you." She just kept on singing. "I love that song." She laughed just as the song ended. "You know you have a really great voice." I said pouring two glasses of Coke. "Yah, everyone says that. When I lived in Colorado I was in a band with a couple of my friends. I played bass and I was the lead singer as well." Explained Erica, she was still smiling. "What kind of music do you listen to?" asked Erica taking a sip of her coke. "I like mostly Hip Hop and R&B. Especially Usher, but I’d like anything I could dance too." "Well, I like Punk-Rock music. Stuff like Blink 182 and Taking Back Sunday." Erica and I kept talking about our lives, just getting to know each other a little bit better. I found out that she moved away from Colorado because her parents got divorced. She lived with her brother and mother. At around 9:00 we realized how late it was and I drove Erica home. She directed me to her house which was a lot different then mine. It was a small bungalow with grey brick and blue doors. From what I saw it was a cute little house. I drove home and went to bed. The next day I spent most of the day with Erica. Nikole and Dasa weren’t really as fond of Erica as I was. Erica had a great sense of humor and she was really great to be around. After school I gave Erica, Nikole and Dasa a ride home. I dropped Erica off first and that’s when the claws came out. "Why do you like her Jayme?" asked Dasa with a very confused look on her face. "Yah Jayme, Dasa is right, Erica is different then we are you seem to be ditching us a lot lately. Take yesterday for example, you left without us and we had to bum a ride off Fiona!" added Nikole. "I like her because she is fun to be around and I’m sorry for not waiting for you, and I will make it up to you somehow." I said trying to win them back. They smiled, "I know how you could make it up to us. Drive us to the party tonight." Suggested Dasa. "Fine I will drive you to the party tonight." I dropped them off at their houses and drove home. I got in took a shower and got ready. I put my jean Capri pants on and a pink halter top with a jean jacket over top. I put my hair up in a ponytail and went downstairs. I didn’t eat anything because I knew I would be eating at the party. At around 6:15 I drove over and picked Dasa and Nikole up, but when I got to Nikki’s house she said she wasn’t feeling well so she decided not to go. So I drove Dasa and myself to Kevin’s parents beach house.
