Chapter four

Ricky 6. It seems so long ago now that it's hard to remember. I remember calling him Ricky 6 because his last name at the time was Zichs. Also because it sounded cool at that lame age. Looking at him now I can tell that he changed for the better.

He looked a lot healthier now and seemed to look a lot cuter. Besides he had a girlfriend, which left me forever in his dust.

We got to school and I showed him around a bit. I can admit that I was a little embarrassed to be around him after so long. We used to be so close and now it seemed like we would never be like that ever again.

"So where's this girlfriend of yours?" I asked sweetly.

"Oh she's . . . right over there! Hey, Katerina!" he waved and a girl with large full curls came and walked towards us.

She looked so sincere, "Hello my name is Katerina." She smiled gently.

"Hey My name is Andy," and I'd like to shove a stick up your oh so sweet ass. I thought bitterly.

"You must be a friend of Ricky's. I haven't heard anything about you before, I must say. Oh well, I am so happy he came to this school. Come along Ricky I need you to carry my books around for me." She said in such a kind voice.

"Ricky wait I need to talk to you for a sec." Katerina stood there watching me with venom in her eyes, "ALONE!" I said conspicuously. With that said Katerina gracefully walked away. "Ricky how can you like her?" I asked.

"I don't know really. I guess we started talking to each other and after a while we both started liking each other. Please get along with her I really like her." With that said Ricky went to go stand by her side.

I stared at him in the distance walking along side with her. I watched his features carefully before I turned away. After all this time I still felt something. It had to be friendship. But when I see him with Katerina it drives me wild.

"THERE SHE IS!" I turned to see a Doll pointing at me. "That's her she cut off all of Christina's hair. Grab her!"

Before I knew it a bunch of girl drowning in powdery make up and long hair were holding me still and applying make up to my face. I didn't squirm or anything because I wasn't in the mood.

A choppy hair Christina started applying mascara to my face but I didn't even squint.

Christina noticed this, "what's wrong? The little prankster feeling down in the dumps?" she chided.

"Leave me alone." I said lifelessly. To my dismay in the ten minutes I had been at school I had become depressed.

All the Dolls let go of me. And I fell to the floor. I starred at my shoes then stood up, grabbed my bag then went to class to sulk some more.

I know it seems fast and he had only been back for a single day but, I was in love with my child hood best friend and he had a girlfriend.
