It all starts out the same. Boy meets girl. Girl meets boy. They laugh. They fall in love. Woop-di-doo for them. Then they get annoyed. They yell. They avoid. They break-up. They never talk again. End of fairytale. And I swore to myself this would never happen to me. But of couse, fate likes to mess with you. His name was Faymen, Faymen Fortune- he was the perfect boyfriend: sweet, sensative and FROM BRAZIL. But then stupid fate dealt me a terrible hand. Jock Goldman "accidentily" sent a rumor around the school via text message saying that I kissed my best friend. Okay, so the rumor was kinda true, but it had been under DRASTIC measures. I mean, it's Ned. ned as in my best friend and next door neighbour since forever. As in FRIEND. Not with the word "boy" in front of it, like many people at Polk used to think. He's awesome- he's always there for me and is sweet (but only when he want's something off me).
Anyhoo, I'm totally phsyced because tomorrow is my first day of 8th grade! ARGGGHHH!!! I am so happy- Ned's been at his uncle's factory all summer hauling lumber, Cookie's been at Compuet Engineering camp and Lisa's been working at the nasal clinic part-time. Don't get me wrong, I was kinda upset when I heard where they could all be going that could possibly compete with my friendship, but I'm kinda happy for Ned. He had to get away from it all for summer, after he found out about Suzie.
Flashback
8.30 am.
Ned rushed up to Moze, breathlessly knocking 6th graders out of his path. "Moze, you'll never guess what I got Suzie!"
Moze looked at him, an amused expression on her face. Knowing Ned, it would be something really cheesy, like a box of chocolates, sweet but kind of weird at the same time. He pulled a small box from inside his jacket pocket.
Moze gasped. "You did NOT buy her a ring!!??" Ned blushed, ducking his head so Moze couldn't see.
"Um, yeah. Too much?"
"Oh, Ned, she'll love it!" Moze gushed.
Ned sighed in relief. "Good. Do you know where she is?"
"Last time I saw her, she was running to iTeacher's room. She said something about getting her books." She said, only looking to see Ned sprint off in the other direction, spin around and realize he was going the wrong way, and head off the iTeacher's room. He finally reached the room and swung open the door, where he saw a shocking sight.
Suzie, with Jock Goldman.
Kissing against the blackboard.
"Suzie?" Ned called tentatively, wanting to just turn and run in the other direction.
They broke apart and looked wildly around. Spotting Ned, Jock sprints past him into the corridor.
"Oh, um, hi Ned. Um, I can explain!" Suzie said, quickly gaining her composure.
Ned just spun around and stormed off in the opposite direction.
End of Flashback
Changing POV
Moze got up off her bed, and logged on to MSN. She heard a "ping!" which told her someone else had logged on. She looked to see it was Ned. Just as she read his name, she felt a strange swooshing feeling at the pit of her stomach.
"What the-?" Moze sat in silence, analyzing her thoughts. It's Ned, so? she asked herself. She clicked on his name and typed a short message.
VolleyMoze says:
Hay Neddy!
TipsterNB says:
Hi Moze.
VolleyMoze says:
What's up?
TipsterNB says:
Nothing. Just getting stuff for tomorrow.
VolleyMoze says:
Mhmm.
TipsterNB says:
This is an intriguing conversation.
VolleyMoze says:
Well, say something.
Moze is sitting in her computer chair, thinking very hard. It never used to be this hard to talk before. We never used to run OUT of things to say?
TipsterNB says:
Fine. Ha- there I said something.
VolleyMoze says:
Haha. You're a regular comedian.
TipsterNB says:
I've got to go, meet you at the stop tomorrow. Duty calls.
VolleyMoze says:
Dishes?
TipsterNB says:
Yup.
They both signed off, and Moze slid onto her bed.
Dream
Moze is sitting on a beach when someone taps her on the shoulder. She turned around.
"Hey Ned."
"Hey, beautiful." he said, as he slid down on the sand next to her.
"What did you just say?" Moze said, confusion on every aspect of her face.
"You heard me."
"I know, but...why?" Moze asked, still very confused.
"It's your dream." He leaned in very slowly...
"ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" Moze sat bolt upright in her bed. Okay, this as seriously getting weird. Ned was her best friend. Friend being the opertive word! And it was going to stay that way.
The Next Day
"Come on, Ned, get your things- you're going to miss the bus!" Mrs Bigby called up the stairs. Ned groaned and dragged himself out of bed. He got ready for school, then slowly trudged off to the bus stop. he spotted Moze against the crowd, and quickly made a bee-line for her. Then he froze. She had definately changed over summer. He was a bit taller now, but only just. Keep walking, or your going to look like a freak, Ned. As he got closer, he couldn't quite put his finger on it, but something was different about her...Good different.
Moze's POV
Wow.
What happened over summer??? He had gotten taller, so much so he was just taller than herself. And, he looked...there was no other word for it: Ripped.
"Um, hi, how was you're summer?" was all she could stammer out. WHAT WAS WRONG WITH HER? It was Ned. Ned-ran-into-girls-room-Ned. Ned-screams-like-a-girl-Ned. Ned, Ned, Ned. NED AS IN YOUR BEST FRIEND/NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR. Snap out of it!!!
Ned's POV
All I could do was grin stupidly. Then all I could say was the first thing that came into my head.
"What, no hug?"
WHY DID YOU SAY THAT??? IDIOT!!! Hold on, it's Moze. Why am I freaking out about how I look in front of Moze??? It's probably some scary after-math of the Suzie episode.
She walked up to me and gave me a brief hug, and that's when it happened. I felt a huge electric shock type thing go through my body, and the hairs on my head stood up. Weird, no?
Changing POV
They both jumped backward, and looked around shiftily. They both were thinking the same thing: Had she/he felt it?
Ned broke the awkward silence/
"Um, you want to-?" he asked, gesturing to the bus door.
Moze waled onto the bus, oce again, thinking very hard. Moze, you are just acting weird because of how he looked, you hadn't seen him all summer. But hold on, why should that even matter?! He's your best friend. You're freaking because of that stupid dream, which was really idiotic, by the way. Because you do not like Ned!!!!! She was so engrossed in her thoughts, she tripped on the second step and, as fate would have it. fell right on top of Ned. They both crashed to the ground, and looked at eachother. They were almost nose to nose, and Moze was staring at him.
"This seems oddly familiar." Ned said with the trace of a smirk, as people around the bus wolf-whistled and laughed. They heard this and quickl jumped off eachother. Moze was bllushing very deeply, and even though you couldn't see it because of that mop, Ned was beet-red.
"Um, I am so sorry!" In truth, she was completely freaking out inside, for as soon as he fell on her, she had had a flashback to the dream.
That is so it, Jennifer Brooke Mozely, you do NOT ahve a thing for Ned. Be on the safe side, and stay away from him at all costs ALL DAY.
