"Girl talk"

Tanya and Kat where enjoying a relaxing afternoon together after school. The girls are delightfully enjoying each other's company as they were engaging into some much needed girl time with one another.

"Hey Tanya so finish telling about what happened with your date with Adam," Kat said taking a seat next her best friend on her couch.

"Thanks for the drink," Tanya said reaching for it and taking a quick sip.

"Well…on with it," Kat said nudging her.

Tanya seen the anticipation was killing her best friend, and she didn't want to keep her in suspense any longer.

"Adam and I went to a movie, and we just went out to dinner, and then he walked me back home."

"And?"

"And what?"

"Nothing else…happened?" she asked peering intensely at Tanya.

"No…" Tanya said shaking her head.

"Really?"

"Kat, I'm serious,"

"No…kiss?"

"No…kiss…it was just our first date remember," Tanya said reminding her.

"Some people kiss on their first dates," Kat replied.

"Well, Adam and I aren't those other people…and besides we're still best friends first so this whole dating thing is something that the both of us need some time to get into the groove of it."

"But, you wouldn't oppose if he did try and kiss you right?" Tanya felt her face grow a bit warm.

"Well…no…" she said trailing off.

"Maybe he just too shy and too afraid to do so…after all Adam is a really quiet and shy person."

Kat seemed to hit the nail right on the head, Tanya thought, as she was thinking the exact same thing.

"I think so too…he did seem a bit nervous."

"I totally understand how you feel Tommy was the same way whenever we went on our first date."

"He did? Did he?"

"While we were out at the movie, he dropped our popcorn, spilled soda all over himself, almost spilled desert on the both of us while were we at dinner," Kat said with laughter.

"Wow…Tommy just…" Tanya said trailing off and laughing.

"Once we made it back to my house after dinner we just stood there for what seemed forever…and then out of the blue he leaned over giving me a quick kiss on the lips, said bye and rushed off. I didn't know exact know what to make of that," Kat said sighing.

"What's to make out of it? You guys had a good time right?"

Kat nodded. "Isn't that all that matters that you finally got to go out with him and that you guys had a good first date?"

"Of course. Don't get me wrong I wasn't trying to say that I didn't enjoy our date by all means I did, it's just that I found it really sweet how incredibly shy Tommy was too during our first date as well."

Tanya nodded; she thought it was interesting too, how incredibly shy both Tommy and Adam were.

"Honesty Kat, it didn't really matter to me, whether or not Adam kissed me after our date. I'm just so happy knowing that we share the same feelings for one another."

"Tanya, seriously you and Adam definitely share one soul, you two really get along well with one another, you both have work incredibly well with each other, sharing all the same classes, and besides you guys look super cute together."

"You really think so?" Tanya asked gushing over her best friend's words.

Kat nodded.

"Yeah, I think so too," Tanya said with laughter.

"Seriously, I really hope he asks me out again…soon."

"Tanya, Adam has been crushing on you for the longest so I have no doubt that he will ask you again…especially seeing how great your first date together went," her best friend said with reassurance.

Tanya peered at Kat; this was the first time she was ever hearing anything about Adam having a crush on her.

"Wait, Kat what did you just say?"

"About what?" Kat asked puzzled.

"You mentioned something about Adam having a crush on me."

"Yeah, what about it?"

"I mean…since when did he have a crush on me?"

"Since like forever," Kat answered bluntly.

"What heck does that mean?"

"Tanya, Adam has had crush on since you joined the team."

"No, way!" Tanya said totally not believing what she just heard.

"Yes, way." Kat said nodding.

"C'mon Kat…don't be silly…" she said trailing off.

"I'm not I'm being totally serious."

"How do figure that he's had a crush on me since then?"

"Well, he volunteered to give you martial arts lessons, he made sure that you shared all the classes together, giving you those personal tours of Angel Grove…"

"None of that justifies…Adam having a crush on me, isn't that things that people do when their friends are new to town?" Tanya asked interrupting Kat.

"Hold, on you didn't let me finish."

"Sorry…continue," Tanya said folding her arms.

"That time whenever you said your ex-Shawn was trying to cheat on one of his upcoming test, but he had a change of heart and you guys were inside the study hall, preparing him for the test…"

"Yes…what about that?" Tanya said leaning in closer to Kat not understanding were she was going with this.

"As I was heading to the dance studio I just so happened to be passing by, and guess who I seen standing outside of study hall?"

"Adam?"

Kat nodded.

"I didn't stop and say anything to him but it seemed like he was going to head inside, he did have his school books in his hands. I suppose maybe he didn't want too once he seen you and Shawn together."

"Wow, seriously?"

"Yup, and that time whenever you were recruited for the baseball team, the way Adam's face lit up whenever he was talking about how good you were pitching. He was really excited for you."

"I don't know if you saw this, but whenever Shawn came to our table I told him that Adam told us how good you were pitching on the team, Adam got really quiet and looked quite embarrassed."

"What? I didn't notice that at all," Tanya said in awe, she couldn't believe all that she was hearing.

"Of course not, Shawn was your boyfriend at the time, and probably wouldn't have either had I not been looking their way."

Tanya started replaying those days' events in her mind, trying to connect the pieces.

"You know come to think about it, Adam was way more supportive me than my ex was…and I remember him saying how proud he was of me for standing up for myself, I was I was all upset over breaking up with Shawn…and I clearly remember Adam saying that Shawn…didn't'…deserve…me," Tanya said taking in her own words.

Kat peered at Tanya shaking her head.

"But…that still doesn't mean that he was crushing on me."

"Tanya, what about the time you were helping Adam train for that Kung Fu tournament? How much of a coincidence is that Adam just happened to be going up against your ex?"

Tanya opened up her mouth to speak but no words escaped, Kat had a really good point, it did seem really ironic that Adam would be the one going up against her ex.

"It was really interesting at the end of the tournament whenever you, Adam and Shawn were talking and whenever you leaned over to hug Shawn, Adam pulled you away from him…and if I recall I remembering him saying something to you guys."

"Alright…break it up," Tanya said recalling the moment inside her mind.

"That's it," Kat chimed.

Tanya leaned back pressing her body against the softness of the leather couch with her mind going into overdrive trying to recall more moments of the sorts between her and Adam.

"Yeah, there was that time when Adam helped me with my music video; he took away time from his martial arts classes and studying just to help me out…and that time whenever he stayed at my side when I caught the flu."

"He bought you all your homework and your medicine, he stayed with studying till you got caught with all your assignments," Kat added.

Tanya nodded acknowledging and taking in all Kat said.

"You know, that's when I started having deeper feelings for Adam."

"After he'd helped you whenever you were sick?"

"No, after that kung fu tournament."

"Is that so?" Tanya lowered her head, recalling the moment of realization.

"It just sort of felt like after that our friendship went to another level…I mean like we started getting closer…we started hanging out more, I started helping Adam out with some of his martial arts classes, we seem to be around each other more than usual."

"Yeah, you guys were always together, more so than you were before," Kat said.

"But, sometimes I wonder if the attraction has more to do with us spending so much time together…outside our PR duties?"

"No, I don't think so." Kat said shaking head, making it clear that she disagreed with me.

"You don't?"

"No, all of us spend most of our time together, and yet I think I can speak for all when I say despite all the time we spent together it doesn't lead us to being liking one another more than just friends right?"

Tanya carefully took in Kat's words, and they made total and complete sense. "Yeah, you're right about that as much as I enjoy Jason, Rocky and Tommy's company I definitely can't see myself dating any of them."

"Right, I feel the same way about Adam, love him to death but no," Kat said shaking her head.

Tanya and Kat shared a collectively moment of laughter.

"You know Kat, after sitting her talking to you…it just made me realize how crazy I am not to have realized how he felt about me."

"Tanya, you shouldn't think that way…you were dating Shawn, and I don't think Adam even realized early on his feelings for you," Kat said.

"But, still Adam was there for me support me from the beginning…even when my ex was bagging on me giving me a hard time, he was there by my side supporting me…he was there when we broke up…still caring and supporting me, and I didn't even realize all that at the time," Tanya said feeling fed up with her own ineptness of the situation.

"You shouldn't feel that way…you guys are on the same page now and that's all that matters right?" Kat said placing her arm around Tanya's shoulder.

She took in her friend's words, and felt she was right; the important thing was that she and Adam both shared mutual feelings for one another and now they were hopefully going to take their attraction to each would lead to somewhere.

"Hey, I know what will cheer you up," Kat said hoping up to his feet.

"C'mon!" she called extending her hand to Tanya.

"Okay?" Tanya said taking Kat's hands.

"Where are we going?" Tanya asked as she was being dragged towards the front door.

"Here you ladies go two large tropical smoothies."

"Thanks Emily!" said Kat.

"You looking good Emily," she said.

"Thanks Tanya!" she said twirling in her body-con white and orange sundress and flipping back her golden hair that shined in the afternoon sun.

"No problem and thanks for the drink," Tanya said.

She took a long swig of the smoothie, the sweet freshness immediately cooling and rejuvenating her senses.

"Ah," she called savoring its rich sweet favor.

"Kat this was definitely what I needed."

She smiled at Tanya's words sipping her own smoothie.

"So, how are you ladies doing this afternoon?"

"Doing well," Tanya replied.

"And yourself?" Kat asked.

"I'm doing great."

"That's good to hear…how it has been working out here with Ernie?" asked Kat.

"It's been really awesome, I get to work outside, here on the beach, get to meet tons of great people, and Ernie is like the best boss ever!" Emily chirped.

Kat and Tanya both share laughter at their friend's jovial demeanor.

"Do you guys mind if I take a seat?"

"No, not all," Kat replied pulling out the small beach chair between us.

"Thanks," she said taking the seat.

Emily was looking quite anxious, as if there was something on her mind that she wanted to reveal.

"So, Emily what's up?" Tanya asked.

"Well, I was wondering if you guys had any plans this Sunday?"

"I don't have any," said Kat.

"Neither do I."

"Great, well Ernie gave me eight tickets to the Angel Grove carnival so I was wondering if you guys wanted to go and check it this Sunday?"

"I had no idea the carnival was in town," Tanya said.

"Me neither, "Kat replied.

"Yeah, it just arrived about a week ago, and these tickets that Ernie gave me are V.I.P. We would be getting special access to it before it opens up to the general public."

"Wow that sounds like so much fun…I'm totally in," Tanya said.

"Yeah, count me in too," Kat added.

"Great, hopefully the guys will want to go too," said Emily.

"I can't see why they wouldn't," Kat said.

"Jason's already confirmed that he's going."

"He did?" Tanya asked.

Emily nodded.

"Well, if Jason is going, chances are he mentioned it to the guys then," Kat said.

"Yeah, that's true, he could have done that," Tanya replied.

"Done what?"

"Hey Jason!" Emily said wrapping herself in his arms.

"Hey girl!" he said kissing her.

"What's going on ladies?" Rocky asked taking a seat at our table.

"Emily, can you come help me with something?"

"Guys, I gotta go catch up with you later," Emily said waving to us.

"See you later Jason," she said pressing her lips against his cheek.

"Later," Jason said taking a seat at the table.

"What's up?" Tommy asked taking a seat next to Kat.

"Hey guys," Kat said waving to all our friends.

Tanya turned her attention over to Adam who was still standing. She pulled out the seat next her.

"Thanks," he said with a smile taking the seat next to her.

"How are you sweetie?"

"I'm fine, and yourself?"

"I'm good."

Adam nodded flashing his signature sweet smile. Tanya couldn't help but to feel a sense of easiness and warmth whenever she was around him.

"Hey so did Emily tell you guys about the tickets to the carnival?"

"Yeah, she mentioned to us just now," Tanya answered.

"So what do you ladies think?" Jason asked.

"I would love to go," Kat said glancing in Tommy's direction.

"Yeah, me too," Tommy replied looking back her way.

"Me, too I'm totally up for it," Tanya said peering over at Adam.

"Well, it seems like we have a general consensus that everyone is going," Jason said.

"Yup, looks like it," replied Tommy.

"Hey didn't she say she had eight tickets?" Adam asked.

"Yeah, I think so…why you're asking?"

"There's seven of us going, so that means she has an extra ticket left."

Tanya peered over at Adam not being too sure where he was going with this.

"Do you know if Emily has invited anyone else to go?"

Jason shook his head, "Not that I know of."

Adam turned to Rocky.

"Hey man why don't you invite Jennifer to go?" Rocky seemed to be completely taken aback by Adam's suggestion.

"Oh…yeah…I…will if that's cool with Emily," Rocky said stumbling over his words.

"I think she'll be okay with that," Jason said.

"You think so?"

"Yeah, and if I'm not mistaken I think she may have a class with Jennifer," he added.

"Oh wow…that's great I will be sure to give her a call today then," Rocky said with delight.
