Chapter 10
    The smell of young प्यार in the morning
    You’d all be happy to know that I never buried a certain Meredith Baxter, but I did accidentally hit her during our lovely game of वालीबाल, वॉलीबॉल fifteen times.
    “Hey JONES! Watch it!” She yelled furiously at me.
    “Oh sorry, I didn’t give a had enough smack,” I shrug as I put on my most innocent face.
    Meredith glared at me but कहा nothing more.
    Don’t आप just प्यार the feeling of having the last word? Because I do.
    Today is the दिन that Grey and Beth are going to that car show, I could already tell from Grey’s bright smile and Beth’s nervousness.
    I’ve also noticed that I haven’t been giving आप many tips, which SUP was made for. So I’ll be dropping some of the rules, my rules.
    But sadly I can’t stalk my lovebirds, because right now I’m being stalked as we speak. Remember Talia? Yeah, she’s outside my door, with this pie, a manic smile on her face, she’s yelling my name right now and trying to bust down the door which I bought extra locks just for her.
    Leaving this house meant facing Talia, who would take no for answer and probably follow me to where I was headed. Then I’d get into a huge girl fight, with the hair pulling, and yelling, and doggy hits, just because of her little obsession with Grey. Which is ten times worse than my infatuation with Cal, who on his page is hanging out with Meredith of all people.
    I sighed, I even thought of going out there, tearing Talia down, and running out there before anyone could pin anything on me.
    But there’s something आप should know about Talia, like I told you, she was crazy, deranged. Wonky in the head. I try to take her and I might end up in a body bag.
    Yes, she’s that bad.
    She’s so bad, that sometimes I’m scared of her, I know Grey is a little scared to of her. She’s just so…creepy, like in her smile it says that she’s been looking through आप window (even if आप don’t have one). And her eyes are always wide and fixed on you, concentrated on आप hard, like she’s trying to devour your soul.
    And sometimes she’s freaky with the way she dresses, like last time when I was leaving the house for school she appeared द्वारा my side, wearing the exact same clothes, her hair in the exact same style as mine, accessories exactly as mine, even her backpack and phone. What kind of normal person does that byu accident!
    So I just have to wait, and I’ll probably wither away waiting while Grey and Beth are somewhere doing only God knows what. Do they even know there on a date?
    They are on one, they are!
    I look at the clock with a tortured glance, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13...
    *A whole boat-load-humongous lot और सेकंड्स later*
    I’m staring at my ceiling, I think I’m dead, I haven’t felt so bored, I don’t know if Talia left ,but I can’t go out, too risky.
    So bored!
    A half a सेकंड later my door opens and a flushed Beth enters the room.
    “So?!” I yell, running to her. “How was it?”
    “It was…” She trailed off. “It was…”
    “You can finish the sentence, come on! It was…”
    Beth takes a deep breath. “Awesome.”
    I squeal, “yes!”
    Beth’s eyes narrow in suspicion, but she doesn’t accuse me, like I thought she would. “But now everything’s a bit weird.”
    “Weird? Why would it be weird?” I ask, scrunching my eyebrows.
    “Well…” Beth blushed. “I’ve never thought of Grey like…you know, romantic like. But today…he was so sweet, and he looked cute when he was nervous, and we almost kissed…ugh!”
    “Whoa, whoa, whoa,” I’m holding my hands up, pushing at every whoa. “You almost kissed?”
    Beth nodded, her cheeks getting redder. “At least, I think we were going to. We were talking, and then Grey leaned towards me, we were so close…but then Meredith and Cal appeared and the whole दिन was ruined with them tagging along.”
    “Meredith and Cal?!” I screech.
    Beth nodded her eyes wide as mine’s. “I’m just as shocked, it was like they knew. It was creepy.”
    “Were they on a date?” I asked calmly.
    Beth shrugs, “didn’t look like it, Meredith and Cal barely looked at each other. But we managed to make some excuse to ditch them, than God for that.”
    I gave her a look. “Your verdict?”
    “Otherwise the crashers, it was amazing. But…I     don’t know if I like Grey that way.” Beth played with her fingers.
    “Easy, did आप wish the night with him and आप lasted longer?”
    Beth paused. “A little.”
    “Did आप find yourself looking at him without realizing it?”
    Beth nodded.
    “Did आप blush whenever he was close?”
    Another nod.
    “Did आप want him to किस you?”
    Nod. *Squeal*
    “Do आप want to go on another date?”
    “Yes.”
    “There आप have it, आप like him, and would like to go out again, which means a potential relationship, easy peasy.”
    Beth shook her head. “Not that easy.”
    I cocked my head at her, and that was when I heard Talia’s voice. “Oh हे Mr. Jones, I was wondering if आप can be so kind to let me in, to hang with your daughter?”
    “Back door?” I asked.
    “Back window,” Beth answered, wincing when she heard the door close and Talia’s excited squeal. “But I still didn’t seem to ditch her.”
    I sighed. “Young प्यार and young obsessions, brace yourself bubs, I’m calling the girl’s.”
