"Guys I'm Serious!" Sonya said into her cell phone. She was talking to Kuki, Rachel, Abby, and Fanny. She didn't even notice the Guys, which included Lee, Nigel, Wally (Kuki's boyfriend), Hoagie and Patton were following her trying to get her attention. Wally got annoyed.
"Sonya!" Wally yelled. She spun around.
"I've got to go." Sonya said and she quickly hung up. "How much did you here?" She asked tentatively.
"Just that last part?" Nigel replied as if it were a question. She nodded. "What's going on? You girls have been acting weird lately." Nigel remarked.
"A bet..." Sonya said, staring at her feet.
"What kind of bet?" Wally ventured.
"Well," Sonya said, looking back up. "We started a bet. We can't talk to our crushes except for Kuki, who is dating her crush." She said looking down, blushing fiercely.
"Who does Fanny like?" asked Patton. Sonya looked up, still blushing, but now smiling.
"Can't say. I've got to go, though." And with that she hurried off.
"They're having that sleep over tonight, right?" asked Hoagie.
"Yeah at Abby's." replied Wally, rubbing his chin.
"Who wants to spy on the girls?" Nigel shouted?
"Sure." The boys rang out in chorus.
Later
"Ok Sonya, truth or dare." asked Fanny, a devilish smile playing at her lips.
"Truth," Sonya answered.
"How bad is your crush on Lee?"
The boys had planted a bug so they could hear everything. They all smirked at the question, except for Lee.
"So much I can't describe it." Sonya said with a broad smile on her face. "So Rachel, how bad do like Nigel?" Sonya said, making sure to add a dreamy effect to his name.
"Pretty much the same as you, Abby."
"Abby agrees with me." Sonya smirked.
"So Fanny how's life without talking to Patton." Kuki asked.
"You know its torture." Fanny said, a sense of longing in her voice.
"Still, remember, the rules are the guy has to make a move." said Kuki.
"Well that su-" Fanny was cut off by a sound coming from the window. The guys were now trying to get their attention. All the girls got up and jogged to the window.
"What are you doing here?" Rachel asked/yelled as she threw the window open.
"We-, well…" Lee stammered. Tapping on the window had been a spur of the moment decision. They hadn't thought of what they would do after that. "We saw someone down here looking into your window, and we came over from Hoagie's." said Lee.
"Then why is Wally's truck in front of my house." asked Abby, looking at Wally's dark blue pick-up.
"Well we drove over." Said Wally with a satisfied look on his face.
"From across the street?"
"We had baseball bats in the back." said Wally, losing his smug expression.
"Can we see them?" Fanny asked, starting to enjoy seeing the boys squirm.
"Uh, um... Okay." Wally turned around and headed for his truck, the other boys in tow.
"Dude." whispered Patton
"What?" Wally asked, annoyed that he had gotten himself in this situation. "Look, just get something that looks like a baseball bat." The boys were unaware that the girls had closed the window and gone out the back door to sneak around the front.
"Here," Wally said, handing Patton a lead pipe from the back of his cab.
"If it takes you that long to get a bat, we'd never be safe." said Fanny. The boys spun around. Nigel got ready to give an excuse. "Oh yeah here's your bug." Fanny added. And with that, all their hopes and dreams died... and pride... if they had had any to begin with.
"Look... Patton wanted to know if Fanny had a crush on him." Wally said rushing his words and ran up to Kuki and hugged her. That got the girls to burst out laughing, except for Fanny who was blushing.
"Abby suggest we go inside."
"Patton don't kill him ok he's still Kuki's boyfriend." Sony pleaded looking at Kuki , a confused, almost pleading look in her eyes. Kuki shook her head. "Your being mean today Kuki." Sonya crossed her arms and stormed past her, getting the girls to giggle.
"Bye." Kuki called out, taking off after the others.
"Well that failed." Wally said, Patton glaring at him. Wally shrugged, got in his truck, and took off to his house.
Next day
"Lee is still outside." Sonya said, her head twisted around, looking out the window. "Make him go away." Sonya whined to anyone that was listening and fell sideways so her head was in Kuki's lap. They were sitting on the couch her friends had concern in their eyes.
"Hang on." Kuki replied getting up, causing Sonya to fall to the ground. She glared at Kuki, but Kuki took no notice as she headed to the front door. All the girls fought over a seat that gave them a good view from the window and watched Kuki approach Lee.
"Hey Kuki."Lee smiled, as though he did this every day.
"What are you doing here?" Kuki demanded.
Lee looked at Sonya who had slowly marched out of the front door to stand beside Kuki. "Because I'm in love with Sonya." He said, with not a trace of embarrassment.
"Please tell me that counts." begged Sonya. She hoped it did.
"I say that counts" Fanny whispered to the other girls, but Sonya waited for Kuki to nod before she threw her arms around Lee, tears streaming down her face. Kuki rolled her eyes, laughing, and went back inside.
