Role Play Time! discussion

Taylor and Renée were half changed by the time Emilie arrived at the change rooms. "Hurry up!", they cried. "Okay, I'm going, I'm going!", she said flustered. She threw on her shirt and shorts. She hurried after her friends.

"Hey Mr. Hendrix! What are we doing today?", asked Taylor.

"Today we'll be doing soccer. We'll stay inside today, but we'll go outside next time", Mr. Hendrix said as the starting bell rang.

"Oh well. It's not hockey, but soccer is fine too, I guess", said Taylor. Emilie said,"Brayden will be so disappointed!"

Emilie laughed and embarrassed, covered her mouth but she kept laughing. Taylor and Renee turned after saying,"Here" and began laughing at Brayden. Emilie whispered to him, "Go back! Your shirt's on backward!"

Emilie laughed and embarrassed, covered her mouth but she kept laughing. Taylor and Renee turned after saying,"Here" and began laughing at Brayden. Emilie whispered to him, "Go back! Your shirt's on backward!"

Taylor, Emilie, and Renée grinned. Mr. Hendrix began handing out balls to partners. Taylor winked at Renée and said,"Wanna be partners?" Renée smiled and said,"Sure!"

"Uh, um... sure!", Emilie said as she glared at Taylor and Renée. But even though she was kind of mad at her friends, she smiled and her heart did a flip. Taylor and Renée ignored her glare. She didn't scare them. They grabbed a soccer ball from Mr. Hendrix, said thanks, and chose a secluded spot in the gym where Emilie and Brayden could talk and they could listen.

"Are you ready Brayden? I play real soccer in the summer, you know!", called Emilie. Taylor and Renée easily passed the ball back and forth in a straight line. They smiled at each other. They had done this before, countless times.

"Alright, you asked for it!", Emilie called teasingly as she sent a straight and perfect pass towards Brayden.

Renée and Emilie burst out laughing. Taylor managed to keep her composure and just smiled as she neatly trapped the ball that Renée had passed to her. "Brayden! You put your foot on top of the ball!", called Emilie, still laughing.

"Yeah, right! Let me show you", Emilie said as she caught the pass neatly.

"Yep. It's as simple as that", answered Taylor. Emilie glared at her for answering for her, but Taylor just shrugged and passed the ball to Renée.

"Okay, class! We'll start shooting now! Choose another pair of partners, get rid of a ball, and begin shooting against a wall!", bellowed Mr. Hendrix.

"I'll be your partner, Brayden!", called Renée. "Wanna be mine?", asked Emilie to Taylor.

((When? I might not be on in half an hour... It's 11:30 EST here. What time zone do you live in?))

"Hey! It's alright with me! Taylor taught me how to do it properly when she wanted to play soccer when we were seven. She got kind of mad at me when I told her I couldn't play. But then she taught me", Renée said as she grinned at Taylor. Taylor smiled back as she began shooting the ball at the wall with Emilie.

((Oh. Do you live in Vancouver?))

"No problem. I'll cover up your mistakes. Mr. Hendrix won't know", she said as she began kicking the ball.

"I don't think you can... If you do, I think you'll be the first!", teased Emilie as she and Taylor shot the ball at the wall. "Listen up! Join another pair of partners and pass the ball to one another!", Mr. Hendrix called.

"Emilie and I'll start first. Then Emilie will pass it to you, then you will pass it to Renée", Taylor said as she began passing.

((Brayden, right?))

"Come on, what I said wasn't that hard to comprehend was it?", Taylor asked. "Uh, yeah! It was! I didn't get it either!", Emilie exclaimed. "Well I did", Renée said.

((S'okay!))

"Yeah, yeah. Let's see how cheeky you are when we start!", Taylor said as she passed it to Emilie. Emilie passed the ball to Brayden.

"Hey! You're supposed to pass it to me!", cried Renée, indignant. "It was okay, I guess", Taylor said mischievously. Emilie smiled at him.

"Now don't go blaming it on me, Brayden! Renée evidently understood it and so did Emilie!", Taylor said. Renée and Emilie nodded.

Renée glanced at her watch and said,"Hey guys! We've got 5 minutes left, hurry up Brayden!"

Taylor, Emilie, and Renée went into the girl's changing room and begun changing. Renée started talking after an awkward moment and said,"Well Emilie, how are you and Brayden coming along?" Taylor smiled mischievously. "Shush up guys!", Emilie said.

They left the change room and waited out by the Gym doors as they waited for Brayden.

Emilie blushed at him, and said shyly,"I think you always play good" Taylor and Renée winked at each other mischievously and smiled.

"Let's go, Emilie! Don't dawdle behind!", called Taylor as she and Renée rushed off to their lockers. "I'm coming!", Emilie called.

Emilie was feeling nervous as she paced in front of the gym door. She assumed that Braydon was already waiting for her in the gym. Finally she worked up the nerve to push open the door and walk into the gym to find no one.

Emilie gave a huge belly laugh."So there you are. You scared me."

"I thought you said you weren't playing?" Emilie's voice had more of a questioning tone than a statement. She started to panic. He did say that right? Was I supposed to remember?

Emilie dismissed her worries as she grabbed Braydon by the hand and started to lead him away to the field.

Emilie felt relieved. "Oh, ok. So where do you want to sit? I could save seats for us."

They arrived at the school, parked, and headed towards the dance in the gym.

(Hahaha) Lanie was in awe. The room was like a huge dance party, topped off with a giant disco ball. This was so cool.

Lanie stood there awkwardly as Cali and Logan went to dance, waiting for kade to make a move.

Lanie smiled and took it.

Suddenly, the song stopped. A slow song came on and over the mic came a voice "this song is made out to those too lovebirds out in the middle of the dance floor." Logan. What an idiot. Everyone's heads turned to Lanie and kade. Well this was awkward. Lanie stood there and glanced over at kade.

Lanier didn't really know how to waltz or slow dance so she put her arm on his shoulder and decided to wing it. "I hate him." She whispered into kades ear, even though, she was kinda enjoying it.

Lanie cringed "it's fine, it didn't even hurt." "Yes it did" kade retorted. Lanie gave Cali a "do something and change the song this is awkward" look. Cali got it and quickly rushed to the DJ table, switching it to her favorite song, by maroon 5 (wink wink)

Lanie gave Cali a look.

"I'm thirsty" Lanie said, eyes wide, "let's go, uh, get some punch. And do some punching."

Lanie sipped her punish quietly, debating weather or not to pour it on Logan's head.

*punch*
