Learning to Fall. [04]

"Alright, Bekah. You have to make sure you put the 7 underneath the 21 and the 14. if you don't, then all the division will mess up and it won't come out to a correct answer without a decimal." Leona told Bekah. They had been to this tutoring program for almost two weeks now, and Bekah was learning pretty fast.

Leona and Bekah had actually become really great friends. They got along really good, and they even hung out after tutoring. Going to muesums and such. Yeah, nerdy things. x] They never went over to each others houses or anything, or talked about what happened at home or their family, but always had something interesting to talk about.

"Hey, um, Leona. Will you do me a favor?" Bekah asked.

"Yeah, what is it?"

"Will you go ask my brother if I can have some money for the fair tonight that were going to, I didn't get but like, $15, and I might need some more." Bekah inquired.

"Okay.. but uh, I don't know who your brother is." Leona told her.

"Oh, I didn't tell you, I would've bet on my life I told you the like, third day we meet since he was being a pain." Leona shook her head slighty and continued to listen. "Dang, well. It's Austin, he's only in the office. Thanks! I'm going to the bathroom." Bekah skipped out of the library and down the hall.

'Why did Bekah not tell me earlier! Sheesh! Oh well.' Leona thought in her mind.

Leona knocked on the office door slightly, knowing that only one person was in the office. He came to the door and openned it. He looked at her confused but, with a smirk.

"Yes, Leona?" He asked.

"Your sister wants money for the carnival we're going to tonight since it's Friday." She said with her hands on her hips.

"Yall are going to the carnival?! Awesome! Can I come?" He said putting a puppy-dog look on his face.

"Why would you want to go. Don't you have like, um, I don't know, some girl to attend to?" Leona asked.

"Okay Leona. We need to get one thing straight." He pulled her into the office and shut the door behind them. "Just because you saw that just ONE time, doesn't mean it happens quiet frequently. I'm not who you think I am. Really. Don't judge me like that. Alright?" He said with his arms crossed at his chest. Leona hung her head slightly, knowing she was defeated.

"Okay. I guess I'm sorry. You can go. Just, don't be a pain, got it?"

"Aye-Aye Captain."

===================================

"Leona! Leona! Can ride ride the Ferris Wheel!!" Bekah said tugging at her shirt.

"Yeah. I guess. If your brother is okay with it." She said looking over at Austin.

"Of course I'm fine with it. But only on ONE condition." He looked at Bekah and she was nodding like a mad-man. "If I can ride with Leona."

She quickly turned her head, looking as though she'd get whiplash.

"What?! No! I want to ride it with Bekah!" But as soon as she turned her head back to Bekah, she was already in the chair with some little girl that she must've known from school.

"Oh look, just us two. Let's go." Austin said pulling Leona by her arm. She didn't protest, knowing she really had no other choice but to get annoyed by the unbelieveable sexy, seventeen year old boy.
