Brent's Tale Continued from Page 58:
It was Monday and Brent had not talked
to Vicky since Saturday night after they dropped her off. She had called him that night and thanked him
for a wonderful time and said she would talk to him, if she got back in time
from her volleyball game on Sunday.
Obviously she had not gotten home in
time, because she had not called.
Brent
walked to his locker; he was in great mood.
He was coming off a great date with a girl he really likes. He opened his locker and there was something
in the top of it. He pulled it out and
it was a red rose with a card attached.
"Sorry for stepping on your
flowers! Love Vicky” Brent smiled,
he was now very content, he thought his life was perfect! He had captured the heart of his best
friend. She too had captured his
heart. The possibilities were endless
and Brent was ecstatic.
The
next week went by like all the others; Brent and Vicky would chat on the phone
and at school and appeared to be happy.
Some of Brent's friends would tell Vicky that she would just dick him
over. He was mad at them but did not show it.
The following weekend was rapidly approaching and Vicky told Brent she
was going to a party with some of her girl friends on Friday night, but maybe
they could go out on Saturday.
Brent
went bowling with his friends that night and smoked some cigarettes. He trusted Vicky, she cared for him, and
there was no worry. The click was
playing pool and Brent was smoking. When
one of the guys made a comment about Vicky going out whoring. Brent blew it off he was very confident in
her. He was really annoyed with the
click and wished O' Riley and Tony had not gone out of town. He needed some new friends.
Vicky
was out with her girlfriends and was kind of annoyed with the crowd she had
taken her out with. They were a group of
high school guys from across town. They
were all wanna be gangsters and thought they were gangsters although they were
all white. They were very rude and loud,
but they were kind of fun. Mostly she
was bored and felt bad that she had not done something with Brent. Well, that was how she felt at first.
She
was talking with Tara when a few new guys showed up. They seemed more normal and seemed to be less
rowdy.
"How
are you ladies tonight, I am Jerry."
One of the guys said.
"Fine." Tara replied.
"Hey
guys, this is Steve." Jerry
introduced his friend.
Vicky
and Steve eyes meet and locked in on one another, then she looked down and her
heart was gone. Steve was medium build
and had long brownish hair. He wore
glasses and dressed pretty smoothly. He
was very nice looking and had a boyish charm to him much like Leonardo
DeCaperia.
"Hi,
I am Vicky." She introduced
herself.
Steve
and Vicky talked the night away. They
parted trading phone numbers and with Vicky falling for him. She went home that night and thought about
Steve.
She got off her bed and was walking around her room when she found a picture
from her sixth grade year. The Picture
was taken at an elementary school function the night she had started dating her
first real elementary school boyfriend.
Or at least the first boy that called her very night and would talk to
her. That boy was Brent Baldwin and then
she remembered him and felt terrible.
How could she possibly forget him?
She was now confused and inquired help from her big sister for help, but
Lisa could not help her. She did not
need advice she needed a way to let Brent off the hook easy and know one could
help her do that.
