The Dea d line
Chapter Three | Maci's POV
Cody was standing with his legs still not visible under the dirt and grass of the field, half washed off. It looked like a wash of paint and dirt mixed up like paint. But I ignored it and looked up to his face, which was also painted with dirt.
“I wanted to give you a hug,” He smiled innocently, but then I looked at his arms and football shirt covered in anything you could find in the field. His smile turned into a smirk as he started to run. I spun around, already sprinting before I’d turned the full 180 degrees.
“Cody no,” I screamed as I slid down the hall, yanking the door open and thrusting it shut as I went out.
“Oh yes Maci, don’t you want a hug from your best friend?” He appeared outside behind me.
“Cody! Leave-me-alone! I’ll give you a hug after you get washed,” I shouted, letting the laughter escape me.
“No, I want one now,” I opened the school gate and slammed it behind me.
But Cody, being on the football team, and well... being a boy in general... jumped over the gate. He finally caught up with me and wrapped his arms around me. I tried to wriggle out of his grip but he hugged me tighter. I laughed uncontrollably as he pinned me to the ground, tickling me.
“Co-day get- off,” I screeched.
I then started tickling him and he fell to the pavement beside me, laughing with me. Cody got up and put out his arm to me. I grabbed him by the elbow and pulled myself up. Once I was upright, I took my finger and brushed below my eye to take the tear of laughter from my eye.
“I’ll see you later,” I said, with a stupid smile on my face and a slight giggle through my words.
“Bye Maci,” He did the same, and started walking up to school.
I lifted my bag from the ground and looked along the road for my mum’s car. It didn’t take much looking because my mum was in two cars from where Cody had chased me to. She was watching me with a soft smile and a hand on her heart, but when she saw me, she gestured for me to come to her.
I pecked her on the cheek as soon as I got in, “How are you Love?” She asked me.
“I’m fine, you?” I buckled my seatbelt.
“Good,” She said as we drove off to the shops.
I sang along to the songs on the radio before and after we went to the shops.
“In another life, I would be your girl; we’d keep all our promises, be us against the world!” I sang and swung my head to the beat.
“Help me in with the shopping darling?” Mum asked as she turned the key in the ignition.
“Sure,” I said as I got out of the car, still humming the tune to ‘The One that Got away’.
We got inside and packed away the groceries. I spent the rest of the night on my laptop, on Facebook, Witty and YouTube. I read some of Harry Potter (I’m working through the series for the third time) and then mum and I watched ‘The Goblet of Fire’, my favourite film of the series.
Mum told me, the next morning, that I feel asleep at half ten, when I asked, because I woke up on the sofa with a blanket wrapped around me. I stretched and rubbed my eyes to waken me up. It was Saturday, so I stayed in my pyjamas until about half ten, when the doorbell rang. I slipped on my slippers and waddled up the hall.
I opened the door to see gorgeous eyes staring me in the face. “Hey Cody,” I hugged him automatically.
“Wanna come out a while?” He asked.
“Well... how about I meet you in half an hour at the park?”
“Sure,” He said. “Bye,” And he walked away.
I closed the door and ran down the hall to my room. “I’m going to go out with Cody,” I said to mum while I was in my room, getting changed.
“It’s about time,” she laughed. I rolled my eyes. “I’m going to go outside with Cody,” I sighed.
“I’m only joking with you love,” I knew she was smiling, even though I couldn’t see her.
