“What are you doing tonight?” I asked, dawdling with Ceirra after school so I wouldn’t have to go to the locker room just yet.
She shrugged, “I don’t know. You?”
I grinned, “Well, I have practice… and then I’m taking this really great girl out to dinner.”
She stared at me, confusion and hurt crossing her face. I sighed, “I was talking about you silly.”
“Oh,” she blushed.
“Are you free too? Or will your parents not be ok with it?”
She made a face, “My mom might mind, but I doubt my dad will give a shit since I havn’t seen him since I was 8.”
ouch. “Oh, my bad. Sorry,” I blushed. Sometimes it’s so easy to forget how many people have broken families.
She shrugged, “It’s ok. I’ll… call you tonight maybe… If I can… Mom probably does want to talk a bit. She’s big on the whole Mother-daughter thing.” she chuckled.
“Ok,” I sighed, I really couldn’t put off the locker room any longer, “See you tommorrow then.”
“Bye,” she waved and left.
Great. Here we go.

The day passed fairly uneventfully. You know, aside from the incredulous stares and insulting questions that seemed to come…

About the author
Dreamer
Current location? Most likely, I'm lost :)
I came up with the penname Dreamer from a fantasy story I used to tell my friends. ‘Dreamer’ was a character based off of me that could make characters in books and movies come to life. Yeah, I know, I wish.
