Chapter 1;;
Driving what the would call a “Ford Pony Car” she pulled into the parking lot. More or less it was a 2010 concept car, people pointed and talked about it. She would see them from inside the car, even though they couldn’t see her. She parked on the front row and took a deep breath, and sighed. Slowly she opened the car door, and stepped out. Her style was nothing short of a pair of cargo boots, tight rocker pants and a “AFI” band shirt and a silver jacket, her hair was a dark brown and put up into to pig tails, her skin was a nice tanned color and it really made her look like a rocker. . She shut the car door, that opened outward and up not out like a normal door with keys in her hand she walked to her trunk and opened it. She looked around moving a few things, picking up her bag she shut the trunk. By this time a Green F150 truck pulled up beside her, she walked slowly by as she opened the drivers side door of her car and turned on the cars computer system and shut the door. She turned around, and saw a face and heard the words. “Hello, sweet car. Where did you get it?” a boy from inside the truck said, she looked at him and raised an eyebrow … wondering about him. She gave him a pleasant smile, she had nothing else to offer him, “I bought it from the from the Ford Company, it cost more than what you will ever make in ten years.“ She said to him before she turned to walk away, a scoff could be heard in the car but not from the guy that asked the question but the one driving the green truck. He opened his truck door and closed it and jogged toward her , touching her on her shoulder. “What? Its true, and you know it.“ she said as she looked at him. Yes she was full of it, and she had every right to be that way. He looked at her and shook his head, and took his Fox had off his head and scratched his head and put it back on. “Yea I know its true, but its just plain mean. “He said as he sighed, she looked at him making eye contact. Her mint green eyes met with his won gray ones, there was no exchange of words. She was studying him, and he seemed to be doing the same. “I’m Dakota, I think we got off on the wrong foot.“ She said to him as she offered him her hand, he took it and shook it and held on to it. “Yea I think we did, I’m Mathew. Nice to meet you.“ He said to her, just before he bell had rang. She looked at him, and smiled as she looked down to her hand. She pulled it away and turned around, after she was a few steps away from him. “I’ll see you later?“ she asked, and waited on a reply. He nodded his head and headed back to his truck, while she kept her pace until she made it inside the building. Before she knew it, she was heading off to her car for lunch. She felt a hand on her shoulder, and looked to see. It was Mathew, she smiled as she looked at him. “Where you going for lunch? “he asked her, she looked at him as she stopped walking and him doing the same. He stood in front of her, “Home , I won’t be back for the rest of the week. I have to go to some shows first.“ she said as she looked at him. She could tell that he some how didn’t want her to go, “Oh that’s nice, well here it me up if you need me. “ He said to her as he handed her his number and walked away, she watched him get into his truck and drive away. She stood there and looked at his number, she walked back to her car opening the door. She sat down, and turned on her I-pod to hear the song “Super Man”. It made her scoff to herself, she put in his name and number and set the song “Super Man” as his ring tone. She could tell that song would stand for him, she pulled the car into reverse and headed home. She didn’t have time to play games, she had to get three horses ready for shows and make sure her truck was fine tuned.
She was having her own fun, as the week went by. She showed her best, trying not to get hurt really. Taking her own breaks here and there she enjoyed herself as she had a party in the town of Oklahoma City. She set her stallion up for his race , and he won. She came back with one race win, and second and third and showing. She took a deep breathe for she had forgotten all about calling him. She took a deep breath and looked at her phone, as she flipped threw the numbers. She dialed up his number and well, somebody answered the phone. “Hello?“ the voice asked, it was kind of sketchy like. “I’m sorry I must have the wrong number.“ she said as she almost hit the end button but the voice spoke again “Are you Dakota? “the voice asked, but now she could tell it was female. She took a deep breath and sighed, something told her not everything was alright. “Yea I’m Dakota, is Mathew alright?“ she asked, as she stood there looking into space almost. “Not really, he got into a car accident. He heard his phone ring, and he thought it was you that was calling him and he just kind of lost control.“ the female voice said, she sounded like she was going to cry. Some how Dakota felt like she was about to cry as well, “Is he alright? May I know who I’m speaking to?“ she asked into the phone, really she was scared for somebody she had only talked two like twice.“ I’m his mother Alexis, and he is alright from what the doctors are saying.“ the voice on the other side of the phone said. “I hope he get’s better, I guess I’ll let you go.“ Dakota said as she looked around , trying to find something to keep her mind off of him. “He wants you to come by, I’ll text you the address and room number. Just stop by when you can.“ Alexis said simply, before she hung up the phone. She looked around, wondering why in the world did she not call him sooner. In a way she felt like it was her own fault, she moved inside the house sitting her bag in the living room. She moved into her bed room, and took a shower. Moving slowly she came into the living room and sat down, and looked at her phone. She started at the number, and took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She could see his face, picture it perfect and now for all she knew it could be different. She sighed as she picked up her phone and took her laptop out of her bag, and moved outside and towards her car. She plugged the computer up, to the jack in the car and started it. She was driving her sweet little “Ford Pony Car” , she drove slowly to where she was told to go. She had the song “Super man” playing loud in the car, she opened the door and stepped out into the pavement. It was raining by now in the city, she moved swiftly down the halls and up to the floor where his room was. She stood there in front of the door, for she could hear voices from inside. She knocked on the door, “Come in.“ Alexis said from inside the room, she opened the door slowly and gave a light smile. “You must be Dakota, am I right?“ a lady asked, Dakota could tell this was his mother. She shook her head yes, and looked at him. He was sleeping really, he had broken his arm. It was apparent to her for she could see the cast, she sat down in a chair and looked around. Two kids from school where there also , she didn’t know their names. She really just looked at Mathew, her mind was running things threw it. She was trying to figure out how or why it happened, she shook her head and looked down. She stood up and turned and walked towards the door, “Where are you going? “ Asked Alexis as she watched. All eyes in that room where on her, she glanced back to even see Mathew looking at her. “I just can’t. “she said as opened the door and closed it. She felt like she was going to cry, but why she didn’t understand it. Why did she need him, she hadn’t had anybody in six years almost seven. She moved swiftly away from this place, and back home. Tacking up her stallion, and going for a ride. She sighed as it made her feel free, the wind going threw her hair. She sighed as she took a deep breathe, she looked at the sun set. Wondering if this was true, was this happening? Maybe she would come around when the week started again, she sighed as she un-tacked the stallion and put him up and groomed and fed all of the horses. Moving inside she sat down on her bed, and cried her self to sleep in a way. She wore nothing but her regular rocker clothing as she went to school the next day, she saw the pointing and the talking. She stood there alone outside waiting for the bell to ring so she could get back to the last half of school. She had it, for she heard somebody say her name and put it with Mathews. She turned around and looked at them, “Excuse me don’t talk about somebody when they can hear you its not nice. “ she snapped at them, many of the girls looked at her. We where just--“ one of them managed to say before Dakota spoke again. “I don’t care, “I’m tired of everybody talking about me.“ she said as she looked at them, she dropped her books on the ground and walked off and to her car. She had it really, with a small town school life. She felt a hand on her shoulder and turned around, it was the guy that was in the hospital room with Mathew. “Can I talk to you?“ he asked as he looked at her, she gave him a weird look. She nodded her head and wiped her eyes anyways, she walked with him stood there and looked at him. “I over heard you.“ he said as he watched her, she looked at him wondering what he was getting at. “I’m tired of it, I have seen it all day long… people pointing.. I can’t take it.“ she said as she let out her breath and looked at him. He looked at her, as she had started to cry. He put his arms around her, and she almost pulled away. She was used to be left crying, “You’ll be alright, I promise. I think they will stop after today.“ he said as he patted her on the back, she looked at him with a funny smile. “Why?“ she asked, her voice was quite sketchy really. He looked at her and had a smile on his face, “Mathew’s coming back to school tomorrow, he was kind of upset when you left.“ he said as he looked at her, she laughed and shook her head. “I don’t know why, but I feel like its my fault.“ she said as she looked at the ground and to the other people. The bell rang, “Come on let’s get back to class, sometimes that happens.“ he said as he patted her shoulder and turned with her. He picked up her books, and helped he to class. Really she was doing much better but who knew what was really planned for them. She made a couple of friends during that day, but still she was really distant from them. She really wished she could get out of this place once and for all, but she knew she needed to stay in a stable place or that would put her in a home.
