Alright, it's only been, what, two days and already I'm updating. I had the best idea ever, and just had to write it down. Well, then writing it down sort of turned into something more…and well, yeah. So, in case you were wondering, even though you probably weren't, the title and all the chapter names are Beatles songs, in my feeble attempt to unite two things that I love. Well, here's something new for you guys!

Tommy invited me over to his house after school today. Alone.

I mean, if he really doesn't see why the others think there is something going on between us, then he is stupider than Angelica. Because really? Who does that? Invites one of their best FEMALE friends over, all alone, without any parental supervision, I mean. Alright, this is what happened:

So I was walking to school this morning with Phil, Lil, Tommy, and Dil on our way to get Kimi and Chuckie. We were talking about how Tommy had randomly hooked up with this girl on the cheerleading squad, Sydney Brussels, and how when Tommy left without asking her out she cried.

"That is so mean, Tommy! Why would you do that?" I groaned, disappointed beyond belief. What the hell was the matter with him? "I mean, what if Brad Owens or somebody like that did that to me?"

"I'd beat his ass," Phil muttered from the other side of the side walk. Everyone turned to look at him. "What?" he asked, shrugging, "was that one for Tommy?"

Tommy rolled his eyes at Phil and turned back to me. "See, that's the thing. Something like that could never happen to you, because you're too smart. Sydney? That girl don't got a thing going for her besides her looks. But, Scar, you've got it all."

It was quiet for a second, and then Lil said, "What if it happened to me?"

"Wouldn't." Tommy stated simply and confidently.

"Kimi," Phil tried, looking over Lil to see Tommy's expression.

Tommy shook his head. "Never."

"How do you know though?" I asked, keeping my well-trained eyes on his and not on his pecs (which were once again very much showing through the tee he had on).

Tommy laughed rather bitterly. "I've been with a lot of girls." Something about the way he said this, all indifferently, gave me the chills.

"Okay…Angelica!" Lil grinned, knowing he'd be stuck.

Tommy bit his lip. "Yeah…yeah, Angelica is one of them. But I wouldn't beat anyone's ass for her."

We all laughed, shaking our heads and not having the heart to agree. Sometimes Angelica could be okay. Sometimes….

"What about Suzie?" I asked, just to hear him speak again. I was seriously thinking that he might be the one I was in love with.

Tommy didn't say anything, his mouth forming a tight line. Phil and I exchanged a look over Lil's head. What the hell?

"Um, she's too smart, too?" Phil attempted, raising one eyebrow in a way that was quite sexy, I must say.

"Duh." Tommy grunted, maybe a little too forcefully. Lil bit her lip, side-glancing at me. Tommy always had something to say.

That was when he asked me. Well, okay, maybe he didn't exactly ask me alone, but he might as well have. "So, guys, you're coming over to help me make my new movie, right?" He looked at us expectantly, all cheery once again. That was so weird.

"Actually, no I have soccer practice," Lil said a little bit uneasily. She looked kind of nervous at the sudden topic change.

"Phil?"

Phil reached one arm back behind his head, making a funny face. "Sorry, dude, I gotta finish a song. Didn't I already tell you this? I'm so close and-"

Tommy cut him off. "Scarlett?"

"Huh?"

"Are you coming?" he asked slowly, as though talking to a little kid.

That's when I realized. Of course Tommy knew Lil had soccer practice, Lil ALWAYS has soccer practice. And duh, Tommy is actually the type of friend who listens. So obviously he knew about Phil's stupid song. And he had never mentioned anything about Chuckie and Kimi coming.

"What's the point, nobody can act but me and Dil, unless you want your parents in it." I gave him a sweetly sarcastic smile.

"Uh, actually my parents are taking Dil to a gumball convention or something, so none of them will be home."

Phil and Lil's eyebrows shot up in sync, but Phil kept his head straight ahead while Lil turned her head and stared directly at me. Great. Thanks, Lil.

"Oh. Sure I will, I guess." I muttered uncomfortably, scratching my nose. Tommy grinned at me, then walked up the Finster's front walkway to ring the doorbell that signaled our arrival to Chuckie and Kimi.

Lil immediately turned to face me. "So it sounds to me like you've decided then." Phil, upon hearing this, joined our circle.

"Decided what?" he inquired, jumping in easily.

"No, actually, not at all." I said, ignoring him. "I can't be sure yet. I strongly suspect it, but no, I haven't decided."

Lil nodded wisely, but Phil asked again, hotly this time, "What have you not decided?!"

"None of your business!" I snapped him in the old, childish way I always used to whenever Phil was prying. And Phil was usually prying.

Phil put his hands up in surrender, but Lil snorted. "Actually it is totally his business, Scar."

I shot her a look, which she returned, but didn't say anything else, seeing as at just that moment Tommy, Kimi, and Chuckie joined our conversation told we had to go if we planned to make it to school by first period.

And now, can I tell you, I honestly cannot wait for school to end.

That was chapter two, please please R&R, because any author knows how much that it means to us! Next chapter isn't going to be from Scarlett's perspective, so read up and tell me what you think!
