Dess
I hummed to myself as I walked down the sidewalk. Barefoot, with my dance shoes slung over my shoulder, my bag thumping against my side. I was on my way to Artie's. We'd always walked to school together, since sixth grade, and the last day was no exception.
I reached the door and knocked the knocker. "Artie, it's Dess! C'mon, it's the last day!" I called, my eyes darting across the street. It was still dawn, but we liked getting there early.
"Coming, Dess!"
There was a thump, an "Ow!" and the sound of Marsho whining before his footsteps picked up again. I leaned against the railing on the side of the walkway and stared at the clouds, tinged pink with the sun. My iPod was in already, Crossfade playing, and I shifted my hand as the laces of my dance shoes began to dig in.
The door finally opened, and Artie stepped out, looking a little frazzled. I didn't ask. I clapped him on the shoulder and tilted my head to the sidewalk. He nodded, and then we were walking. I yawned. He handed me a Fig Newton.
Yep, that was us, Dess and Artie, the Ultimate Pair.
