Taking Me Over


Chapter 18: Mood Eyes

Maureen and Ellen headed back over towards Greg and Jack.

“Um…Hey guys.” Maureen said.
“Hey,” Jack replied staring directly at Ellen.
Greg elbowed him.
“Ok Greg here’s the deal,” Ellen said actually tearing her eyes off of Jack momentarily.
“Wait, before you say anything, I need to tell you something,” He interrupted.
“What’s that?”
“Ok, obviously we’re both interested in other people-”
“Speak for yourself,” she grumbled. Greg gave her a look, “Okay, okay I admit I am a little interested in Ja..er I mean other people too.” She added.
Jack grinned.
“So,” Greg continued, “Why don’t we…you know…break up?”
Ellen look sort of shocked, “You’re breaking up with me?”
“Well…” Greg looked embarrassed, “We both admitted that we aren’t really interested in each other as much…”
”Yeah but still…”
“I didn’t want to hurt your feelings or anything, I still think you’re really fun to be around and all that but can’t we just be friends?” Greg offered.
“Yeah I guess you’re right.”
“So we’re cool?” Greg asked.
“Yeah I guess so.” She gave him a hug.
Maureen walked over to Greg, “So whose this ‘other girl’ you’re interested in hmmmm?”
“Just this really beautiful fan I met at a concert.
She’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.”
“Maureen turned bright red, “Oh really…”

“So Jack…” Ellen trailed off. Well at least it seemed that way to Jack. All he could do was stare into her green eyes and smile to himself at all the cute freckles that were thrown about her face. "Whoa what am I doing?" Jack stopped himself. He wasn’t the type to daydream and fantasize about a girl when she was standing right in front of him.
“…meet anyways?” Ellen finished.
“Huh?” Jack asked shaking his head as he caught the last bit of Ellen’s question.
“I asked where you and Greg met…? Were you listening?”
Uh-oh she looks kind of upset. Girls like it when they know you were listening…Think of something to say, come on think Jack! The last thing I wanna do is make tears come out of those beautiful eyes…That’s it! “I’m sorry,” Jack finally replied, “I was distracted by your beautiful green…” Jack stopped and looked at Ellen’s eyes again. They didn’t look green anymore, “Hey wait a minute. Was it just me, or did your eyes just turn blue?”
Ellen blushed from his compliment, “They might’ve. Everyone tells me I have ‘mood eyes.’ Depending on what kind of mood I’m in, my eyes change colors slightly, like a mood ring.”
“Well what does blue mean?” Jack asked, getting lost in her eyes again.
Ellen blushed an even darker shade of red.
“What?” Jack asked, thinking of how shy and almost vulnerable she looked.
“It…well it means that I’m in a good mood. Or…well my friends always tease me when a guy I like is around because my eyes turn really blue and they say when my eyes turn blue it typically means that I’m…well that I’m in love”
“I’ve never seen bluer eyes in my life.” Jack smiled.
