Golden Boy
chapter
one
Brooklyn
*Flashback Freshman Year*
He stood out to me immediately. The dark hair and dark eyes.
He was tan, a sweet golden brown, that truly showed his spent his
summer outside. His dress shirt sleeves were rolled up to his
elbow. His shirt was black and his tie was was a nice blue. How
had I not seen this guy before? The freshman class wasn't
that big? Did we have a class together and I just never
notice? But how could I not notice him? He was too cute. Suddenly
he looked right at me. Oh no he caught me staring at him. Wait
what was he doing? He broke away from the group of guys he was
with. Was he coming over here? Oh.my.god. he was!
"Hey." He said. His voice was already
deep.
"Hi." I barely squeaked out and actually looked
down and played with the hem of my dress.
"You're Brooklyn right? I think your in my lunch and
science class."
"Yeah I am." Lunch and science. Two times a day and
I had no idea who this guy was. I really have to pay attention
more. Well might as well go the honesty route. "I'm
sorry, I can't remember your name."
"Vinny Carlson."
Vinny? Vinny Carlson? The kid who's absent all the
time?
"Your the kid who the teacher is constantly calling
absent."
He laughed, thank god.
"Yeah. I've been playing a lot of fall baseball
tournaments."
"Ahh your a baseball player."
"Yeah. You like baseball?"
"Yeah."
As soon as I said yeah he was talking a mile a minute, but I
didn't mind. I wanted to hear everything he had to say. He
was telling me all about his summer ball team and all the cool
places they went for tournaments. The dance was going on behind
us. I don't know how many girls spend their freshman
homecoming against a wall chatting with a guy all night but I
didn't have a single complaint. The fast paced music that was
blasting throughout the room slowed down.
"Hey, wanna dance?" Vinny asked holding out a hand
to me. I couldn't think of the right words so I just
took his hand. He led me out to the gym floor where some of the
crowd had dispersed because of the slow song. He slipped his arms
around my waist and brought me close to him. I swear a shiver ran
down my back. After a bit of silent swaying, Vinny spoke
again.
"Man, I should of asked you to be my date. Then I would
have gotten to hold you this close all night and not just for one
slow song."
"You can hold me this close whenever you want." I
smiled at him.
Umm excuse me, who said that cause I know I would never have
the confidence to say that.
"Sounds like a plan to me."
And that's where our relationship began. And throughout
the year everything was perfect. Freshman year was perfect.
****************************
It the first day of school. My first period class is american
government. One of the perks of the first day is being able to
sit wherever you want because most of the teachers don't care
or have more important stuff to talk about. The teacher is okay,
but he's also the baseball coach. From my seat I hear him
say. "Well, well, well. If it isn't the Golden
Boy?"
Oh you gotta be kidding me. It's my senior year now and I
hate baseball. Well actually I hate my high school baseball team.
If we're going to be exact I hate my ex.
I hate the Golden Boy.
