Can You Still Love Me If You Can't See Me Anymore?, chapter 3
I reluctantly ate the ham and tomato sub that my mom had made me, in fact I barely touched it. "Honey you barely touched your sub ,are you sick or something?" My mom asked me.
"No I'm fine."
"I'll have hers if she isn't eating it." Sammy said.
"All yours." I said passing it to him.
I looked at my watch again, it was only two o'clock and it was scorching hot. "Hey mom I think I'm going to go to the swimming poopl a while." I said. "Oh, your dad and Sammy were going to go fishing if you wanted to go with them." I pulled a face at the thought of fish, I hated fish even the big ugly eyes made me want to throw up. "I think I'll pass." I said with a false smile. I ran down the hill for the umpteenth time today and went walked through the indoor area. I didn't plan to go swimming, even looking at all the little kids and thinking how many times they's peed in the pool made feel ill. Oh what the hell it was hot so I thought I'd just put my feet in. The water was warm and almost had an acidic feeling to it. I shuddered and changed my mind. So I just sat in front of the pool gazing blankly in the water humming London calling over and over again as there was a riff in my head. Suddenly I lost my balance and fell in with a scream.
When I reached the surface again I coughed and saw the gang who tripped me up earlier. "Two in a row go Billie!" One of the boys said.
"Having a nice swim?" One of the girls said. She was tall and lanky and had blonde/brown hair and orange ,tanned skin.
"Aww are you having fun with all your little buddies, did you forget your armbands?" The boy who tripped me up earlier said.
"Yes I did actually." I was really pissed off this time. Then I noticed one of the was looking at my chest through my white t-shirt he had dark hair and blue eyes. Good thing I was wearing a bra. "Why are you staring at my chest you sicko?"
One of them nudged him and he came out of his little trance. "She's not worth looking at Tre." The tall girl said.
"Well at least I know when I've been tangod." I retaliated. She looked at me in disgust. "It's okay. Hilary don't listen to her." The other one said.
"Oh I think you should, because I'm giving you a piece of advice." The boys tried to hold back the laughter. The blue eyed girl came over to me "Look here," she said "you don't mess with me, Hilary Vikki or Lianne." She said pointing to the other two. One looked a little like her except she was more wide eyed and had a black hair in a bob and the other had plaited hair with a crimped fringe.
"Says who?" I asked.
"Says me she replied."
"And you are?" I said, the boys sniggered again.
"That's Roxie to you."
"Fair enough Roxie." I said. She gave me a dirty look then walked away followed by the other girls still giving me evil looks. The boys held back.
"Wow you really told her off!" Tre said.
"Well someone had to." I said. He laughed.
"I'm Tre." He said.
"Mike." the blonde one said.
"Billie sai the one who pushed me in blushing slightly, I blushed too.
"ARE YOU GUYS COMING OR WHAT?!" Vikki shouted.
"See ya." Tre and the other both said in unison. Billie looked at me and half smiled I half smiled back.
I watched them walk off, maybe thing might start to look up, I thought to myself.
"No I'm fine."
"I'll have hers if she isn't eating it." Sammy said.
