A MONTH LATER....
" your coming to the game tonight right?" Cami said turning to max as her and max walked to the lockers.
"yea...wouldn't miss it" max said slightly smiling at her.
"good deal...and afterwards were all going out to get ice cream" Cami said starting to walk off
"wait..we?" max said, looking a little confused.
"yea..me..you ..Priscilla ..and Jordan" Cami said looking at her. max rolled her eyes
"come on max...Jordan is like...Priscilla best stud friend...you cant have Priscilla without Jordan..their like a package..you know that..and together we make a group...minds well get used to it...your going to be seeing alot of her this softball season" Cami said giving her a "im sorry" look.
"great" max said, fake smile on her face as she stopped, at her locker.
"see ya tonight ok" Cami yelled back
"yea..sure thing" max said opening her locker.
"pick you up at five?" Priscilla said coming up behind her.
"yea..thats fine "max said looking back at her before turning back to her locker.
"hey..did you see which way Cami went" Priscilla asked.
"uh...that way" max said pointing to the right.
"thanks" Priscilla said running off down the hall. Max looked up watching Priscilla before placing her books in her locker. for once they didnt have any homework this weekend. she headed for the door.
Walking in her house, she went upstairs, in her room and turned the radio on. max danced around a little lip singing before heading back downstairs and into the kitchen. Walking to the frig she grabbed a monster energy and headed back up the stairs to get ready.
She sat there on her bed a moment, thinking about Harley, she picked up her cell.
one ring, two....three....four...five...."WATS up, this is ya girl Harley, leave me a message afta the beep".
max closed her cell. "hmm..wonder were she is..oh well" max sighed getting up and headed to her closet.She stood there a moment trying to decide what to wear. this seemed familiar. she thought back to when she was trying to find something to go to the movies with Harley with. good times. She finally decided softball jersey and bluejeans. that would do just as good as anything else she thought to herself as she walked into the bathroom to survey herself in the mirror. She turned her head one way, then another, played with her hair a little into she decided it would do and walked downstairs. Coming into the living room, she sat down on the couch, turning on the TV and realizing she had yet another hour before the game. rolling her eyes she flipped through the channels laying down on the couch. Loud knocks at the door sent her sitting up, she must have fallen asleep.
"god i was starting to think you'd died on me" Priscilla said. " you ready?"
"uh..yea..just let me get my things" max said running upstairs she grabbed her cell,and bag, making a quick stop at the bathroom to check her hair. perfect. she walked back down the stairs.
"ok lets go" she said walking past Priscilla.
"so..you and Jordan...yall are cool right?" Priscilla asked on the way.
"what?...oh yea...sure" max said looking out the window.
silence for a moment
"you talked to Harley any?"
"i tried calling her when i got home, still no answer."
"huh..she must still be at work" Priscilla said.
"yea..must be" max said continuing to look out the window. Driving into the school, they found a spot to park and walked to the field
"hey!" Jordan said coming up, her and Priscilla doing there usual hand shake. max just crossed her arms and stood there.
"hey" Jordan said leaning over and slightly pinched max on the arm. max jumped and looked over at Jordan.
"dont touch me" max said as she walked off toward the field.
her and Priscilla both looked at each other.
"whats with her?" Jordan asked
"uh..shes still...sensitive about the whole...yea"
"ah..my bad" Jordan said, as her and Priscilla started walking toward the field. Max made Jordan sit on the other side of Priscilla. as far as she was concerned she didnt even want to see her.
"COME ON CAMI!..LETS GO!" max yelled as Cami ran from second onto third and back to base scoring and putting them now five point ahead the other team. yelling and screaming as max, Priscilla and Jordan all stood up cheering as Cami went back to the dugout.
"ill be back" max said sliding past Priscilla. her and Cami always went to the consetion stand after her turn was up. like a tradition. it was something they always done.
"good run" max said hugging Cami as she came out of the dugout.
"thanks..i see yall made it" Cami said looking up at the bleachers, waving at Priscilla.
"of course" max said, they headed for the consecion stand, max happened to look up, stopping in her tracks.
"max?..whats wrong?" Cami asked looking back realizing she had stopped.
max just stood there starring off infront of her. A group of girls walking away from the bathroom, one very familiar face in them. Harley
"max"
"uh..yea...im..fine" max said looking down, she continued walking. Cami by her side. so thats why she wouldn't answer her phone. max thought as Cami got there drink. she was to busy out with ...other people. max watched to see if maybe, one of them was harleys new girlfriend. all they did was sit at a table and talk and laugh, none of them holding hands or kissing. a relief fell over max.
"here" Cami said interrupting her thoughts as she handed her a power aid.
"thanks" max said as they headed back to the bleachers.
"just imagine..if we win this one..your going with me to every travel game this summer" Cami said, putting her arm around maxs shoulder.
"sounds fun" max said looking up as she smiled back at Cami.
"just trying to keep you busy..since..
"i know" max said, they stopped at the end of the bleachers.
"well..see you after the game..wish me luck" Cami said. looking up at the bleachers waving once again at Jordan and Priscilla.
max looked up, starring at them, then back down at Cami
"much luck bestie" max said
Cami smiled and headed back toward the dugout. max stood there a moment before walking back up the bleachers.
"hows Cami" Priscilla said as max said back down.
"shes good, excited about how the games going"
"so..uh..you'll never guess who i saw, walking around " Priscilla said leaning down and whispering in maxs ear.
"who?" max said slightly turning.
"Harley....with a few other chicks" Priscilla said.
"yea..i saw that" max said watching the game.
"well did you say something to her"
"Priscilla..if she cant even answer her cell when i call..shes obviously not ready to talk to me yet"
they sat there a moment watching the game.
"yea..i guess your right" Priscilla said, sitting there before leaning over and talking to Jordan.
max started to call Harley again once they got to the ice cream place, shed already gotten hers, it didnt take her forever to decide which flavor to get like it did the others. but sitting there she decided against it.
"congrats again on winning" she said to Cami as her and Priscilla sat down, they got a banana split and decided to share it.
"thanks bestie" Cami said, turning and throwing ice cream in Priscilla face. which in turn started a ice cream fight.
Once back home max walked upstairs and into her room. laying down on her bed she grabbed her phone, opening it to see if she had any missed called. none. sighing she lay there a moment before trying to call Harley once more.
one ring....two...three. ..four. oh whats the use.
"hello?"
" ha.harley?"
"hey"
"uh..hi" max said sitting up, it had been a while since shed hear her voice. god she missed it. "hows...hows work"
"im working full time now"
"really?...thats...thats good"
"yea...been really busy"
"i can imagine"
"how are things with you?"
"there...good.."your such a lier max
silence
"i hate to cut this short...i have got to go to bed...im exhausted"
"yyea..yea...its ok"
"talk to you later then?"
"yea"
"sweet dreams"
"you to" max said closing her cell. she sat there a moment before cutting off her lamp and going to sleep.
