A/N: This chapter takes place RIGHT after school, after detention, when Sarah gets home.
When Sarah arrived at home, she saw a very angry Kate Baker standing at the door.
Sarah quickly swallowed air and looked more nervous than she had in her entire life. 'It's not like it's the first detention I've ever gotten…' Sarah thought to herself, she did an overview in her head of other things she had done that week, 'I don't think I've done anything else either…' She thought. She then looked up at her mom, "Hi Mom…" She said, Jake ran up behind her. He got the same expression Sarah had.
Kate looked at Sarah, "Hello Sarah, you can go inside now." She then focused her attention on Jake.
Sarah bolted into the house and went straight up to her room. "Well, at least it wasn't me this time." She said, as she sprawled out on her bed.
The scream of Kate Baker was heard all the way in Sarah's room, "STARTING A FOOD FIGHT! JAKE I'VE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING MORE IDIOTIC IN MY LIFE!" She didn't stop there, "JAKE YOU ARE GROUNDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE! GET TO YOUR ROOM NOW!"
Sarah heard no comment from Jake, just the sound of his feet running to his room. 'Idiot…' She thought to herself as she heard him go by.
Kate then went to the bottom of the stairs, "SARAH!"
Sarah gulped, she walked downstairs, "Yeah Mom?"
"Come sit in the dining room."
Sarah walked into the dining room and sat down at her usual seat.
Kate entered closely behind her, "Now, what is it that you got detention for?"
"Uh… Well… Eric B said something funny, and I laughed. And Ms. Green was already mad, so she was looking for an excuse to give someone detention… And Eric, Eric, and I just happened to be the first ones to laugh, or talk, or anything, so she gave us detention."
"You said Eric twice…"
"It was me, Eric B, and Eric V."
"Okay…"
"Yeah…" Sarah said, moving in the chair, "Can I go back to my room now?"
"Yes."
Sarah jumped up from the chair and ran back upstairs, she went into her room, where her cell phone was ringing. She picked it up, "Hello?"
"Uh.. Is this Sarah?"
"Yeah. Who's this?"
"This is Dominick."
Sarah smiled, "Hey Dominick."
"Hey."
"What's up?"
"I was just wondering, if you can still go to the Zone this weekend. Even after getting detention, I can, because I was smart and didn't tell my parents."
"Damn!" Sarah muttered, "Hang on." She ran back to her mom, "Um.. Mom?"
Kate was cooking dinner, "Yes Sarah?"
"Can I go to the Zone this weekend?"
"Who's going to be there?"
"Me, Cassie, Bridget, Dominick, Eric B, and Eric V."
"How much money?"
"Free. It's the place Jake goes every weekend."
"Oh. Yes, you can go."
Sarah smiled, "Thanks Mom." She went back upstairs, "I can go." She said into the phone.
"Sweet." Dominick said, "I'll be seeing you."
"Yeah. See ya."
Dominick hung up, and Sarah did as well.
Lorraine walked into Sarah's room. "Sarah what have you done with-" She looked at the smile on her younger sister's face, "Who's the guy?" She asked.
"Guy? What guy? Why would I need a guy?"
"I know that smile Sarah. You can't pull a fast one on me."
"Like I'm going to tell you?"
"Sarah…"
"Lorraine…"
Lorraine stuck out her bottom lip, "Please tell me."
"How about no." Sarah said, walking out of her room, and towards Mike's.
Lorraine looked at Sarah's cell phone, and then popped her head out the door. She walked over to Sarah's phone and looked at the caller history. The most recent entry read:
Dominick Andrews
1-438-231-5492
Lorraine smirked as she set Sarah's phone down and went back to her own room.
Meanwhile, Sarah was sitting on Mike's bed, "Come on Mike! Can I please borrow one of your hockey sticks?"
"Sarah!" Mike said, "I need them!"
"All 20?"
"Well… um…" Mike stammered, "Why do you need it?"
"Well, it's a long story…" Sarah began.
