"-that's what I was thinking. So what do you think?" Lucy asks Simon.

"Great." Simon answers

"So which one then?" Lucy asks

"Yea, me too."

"SIMON!" Lucy explains

"What?" Simon asks confused.

"Your not listening to me. That's what" Lucy snaps

"Sure I am" Simon defends himself

"Then what did I say?" (Simon looks blank) "What's with you Simon?"

"You wouldn't get it"

"Try me" Lucy challenges


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


"124, 126, 128- ow!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to run into you." Simon says

"It's all right I was looking for my locker." The girl explains smiling

"I'm Simon Camden" Simon introduces himself.

"Amanda." The pretty brunette answers

"So I take it your new here?"

"Yea, I just moved here from New York."

"That's pretty far. Why Glenoak?"

"My mother got transferred, so we packed up and moved to the other side of the country." Amanda answers brightly

"You seem to be taking it well."

"Well actually I'm looking like I'm taking it well, I hate it here, but….it's seeming to look better."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


"So that's it? A new girl moves here, and you think your in love with her, so you can't listen to me for a second?" Lucy yells

"I told you, you wouldn't understand." Simon replies and leaves the kitchen.

*********************

"Simon, listen I'm sorry about what happened yesterday I didn't mean to yell." Lucy apologizes

"It's ok" Simon says

"OK so who is this girl?" Lucy asks

"Right there." Simon points

"Her?"

"Yea."

"I know her, I was talking to her yesterday at lunch. I didn't know she was the same Amanda though."

Amanda turns around and starts heading towards Simon and Lucy, she looks up and notices them. "Hi Simon! Hi Lucy!"

"Hi Amanda, I didn't know you knew my brother."

"Simon is your brother? I didn't know that."

"Yea, so you look…."

"Lost, I am, I can't believe I keep losing my way here, my old school was so much bigger."

"It's ok it takes a while to get used to it." Lucy smiles "I'll show you OK?"

"Yea thanks, I'll see you later Simon."

"Bye Amanda." Simon calls

*******************

"So you just said ok?" Lucy asks as she and Amanda go in the back door.

"Yea." Amanda laughs

"That's so funny, I wouldn't be able to of kept a straight face." Lucy exclaims

"Hi Luce, what's so funny." Annie asks

"Oh hi mom, this is Amanda, she just moved here. She was telling me about a time when she was swimming and a lifeguard jumped into save her but was just trying to get her number and when he told her she just said ok." Lucy explains

"Yea and I could barely keep from laughing." Amanda adds

"I could imagine" Annie laughs "You two hungry?"

"Yea." They both answer

"Hi mom, hi Lucy hi…Amanda?" Simon asks from the doorway.

Amanda turns around "Hi Simon, come on sit down."

"I will, just, Lucy can I talk to you a minute?"

"Sure, I'll be right back." Lucy says

"Oh I just remembered I didn't buy any meat for tonight's dinner, I'll be back tell the kids where I went, oh and would you like to stay?" Annie asks

"Sure I just have to tell my mom."

"OK the kids will show you where the phone is when they get back." Annie hurries out the door.

Just as the door shuts Ruthie comes in. "Who are you?" She asks

"Amanda."

"Hi Amanda, I'm Ruthie."

"Hi Ruthie."

"Hey your the girl my brother likes. I heard him telling his friend yesterday on the phone. And I know everything that happens in this house." Ruthie adds

"Really? I didn't know that."

"So are you Lucy's friend too?"

"Yea, you really do know everything huh?"

"Yes like I said."

"I can see that now, want some cookies?"

Ruthie smiles "I thought you'd never ask"

A few minutes later Lucy and Simon come back in to hear the end the Ruthie's and Amanda's conversation.

"So Mary is in New York now. Does she live where you used to?"

"No, you said Buffalo, I lived in Manhattan."

"Oh OK. So anyway that's where Mary is, Matt lives at his own apartment but he his here so much he should just move back, Lucy and Simon live here of course and twins do of course cause they're babies. Oh and Robbie lives here too, but he isn't family but now he kind of is family."

"Wow you have a big family."

"Yes, how many people are in your family. 4, I have two older brothers."

"You mean five, you forgot your dad."

"Well my dad doesn't live with us. I haven't seen in long time." Amanda explains

"Oh OK,So your the baby like I used to be?"

"Yes."

"How old are they?"

"My brother's are 18 and 20."

"How old are you?"

"16."

"Matt is 23 and Mary is 19 and Robbie is 20 and Lucy is 17 and Simon is almost 16,Sam and David are just babies, are you and Simon in the same grade?"

"Yes."

"Well I am 10, to bad you don't have a younger brother, or sister."

"Ruthie, now that your done finding out Amanda's life story why don't you leave?" Simon asks pointedly

"Why? I like her. She likes me too, oh and she knows you like her." Ruthie smiles

Simon glares at her. "Oh maybe I should go now." Ruthie gets up and hurries upstairs.

"Where's my mom?" Lucy asks

"She went to go get something for dinner. She also said to show me the phone so I can ask my mom if I can stay here for dinner."

"The phone is over there, and I should go do some homework." Lucy says

"Thanks bye Lucy." Amanda goes over to the phone "Hi…. mom? I'm going to stay over a friends house for dinner ok? Thanks. Yea I'll be home early, no it isn't far. OK. Bye"

"So you can stay?" Simon asks

"Yes I can, my mom probably doesn't feel like cooking anyway."

"So you only live with your mom?"

"Yup, my mom wasn't working for a while, then we moved to New York cause she got a good job there, but she got transferred out here. Which is better cause my brothers live out here."

"So everything worked out good."

"Yup."

"Have you seen your brothers then?"

"Actually no, we only got here like 3 days ago, we've been so busy, and we don't know where they live out here. One of them is at college."

"Hello, I'm home!" Eric says coming into the house, he notices Amanda "Hi I don't think we've met."

"Dad this is Amanda she just moved here from New York."

"Nice to meet you Amanda"

"You too." She smiles.

"I'm home, hi Eric, Amanda are you staying for dinner?" Annie asks

"Yea, I'm allowed."

"That's great, why don't you and Simon go watch some T.V.?" Annie suggests

"Yea, come on Simon grabs her hand."

*****************

Robbie walks into the house. "Hey guys" He stops and sniffs

"Is something wrong?" Eric asks slowly

"Are you wearing perfume? Mrs. Camden?"

"No not today Robbie."

Lucy comes down the stairs and grabs a book off the counter, "What?" She asks Robbie

"Are you wearing perfume?" He asks

"No, but this is my friends shirt, it may be her perfume." She answers confused.

"Maybe" He answers

"It may be Simon's friend." Annie suggests

"How come you want to know anyway?" Eric asks

"Oh, someone I knew wears that stuff all the time, I know that smell anywhere. Oh well I'm have to get some stuff done. Call me when dinner's ready?"

"Sure" Annie calls after Robbie as he goes up the stairs.

"That was a little weird…right?" Eric asks

"Yes, it was weird but I have no time for that I have to cook." Annie says
