Sorry about not writing in a while!! I feel really bad about it but I'm back :). Please don't kill me... and thanks for the reviews. Sorry about the spelling mistakes :S... I'll get back to my dogs story... yes I know I say that a lot but I will! Well heres chapter 3...

xoxo

"Where are we going??" I yell for about the four-hundredth time.

"You'll see!" Theresa yells getting a little ticked off at me. "Just in joy the ride!"

I slump back into my tiny seat between Archie and Neil.

"Really though, " I whisper to Archie. "Where are we going?"

"Honestly," Archie tells me, squirming in his seat to face me. " I have no sweet clue."

"Yeah, she won't tell us either, " Neil adds in fixing his sunglasses on his face. "The only other people who knows are Jay and Odie, and they seemed pretty excited┘ so it's probably something pointless."

Archie and I laugh at it, because of all the times that they got excited about something and expected us to be excited too but to their disappointment, no one got excited. Wow that's exciting, about all those excited in that paragraphe.

"So, where is Herry and Odie?" I ask calming down from laughing, getting a questioning look in the rear view mirror from Theresa.

"Well Herry is working on his science project at the library," Jay tells us looking out towards his right out the window. "and Odie is getting prepared for what were going to get."

"So were getting something!" Archie yells, busting my ear drums.

"Jay!" Theresa playfully slaps Jay on the arm. "Don't give anything away!"

"Wait!" Neil yells. "Did you say Herry was at a library?"

X0X0

After four thumb wars with Archie, we finally pull into a parking lot. My head immediately snapped up. And this is what I have to say:
OMG!!

"A pet store?" Neil whines, sounding a bit disgusted, making me crinkle my nose at him.

"A PET STORE!!" I shriek, jumping out of the car and running over to Theresa and Jay.

"Yup," Theresa starts, giving Jay a big pearly smile. "I finally convinced Jay to let us get a pet!"

"Well we better get it now before I change my mind..." Jay says opening the doors for everyone to enter.

xoxo

Inside the pet store there ways SOOOO many cute animals. The first thing I saw were the puppies. Which were little collie puppies, and OMG I wanted one SOOO bad.

"Are we getting a puppy?!" I smile at Theresa.

"Nope!" Theresa laughs.

Awww man, and I really wanted a puppy... I go over to the kittens where I meet Archie who is- Wait! What is he doing? OMG. You know that voice that people use when they talk to animals and babies? Well that's how Archie is talking to the kittens! HA! I sneak up behind him.

"Aww, Archie I've never heard you talk like that," I say smirking at him. "I didn't even know you're voice could do that!"

"Um... Er... " Archie says blushing, embarrassed that I heard him.

Haha I'll have to tell Theresa about that, and maybe the rest of the school or the maybe the whole world?

Archie ignores my smirk and looks over at Jay.

"Are we getting a kitten?"

"Nope." Jay says, looking around searching for something.

Ok, what else is here? OH, there are the bunnies! I race over to the rabbits.

"Awwww, how cute are they!" I shriek.

I turn to go ask Jay or Theresa the big question and smack right into Archie's chest, and fall over from the collision.

"Jeeze Archie, ever heard of anything called personal space." I say rubbing my still sore nose. I look up immediately to make sure it was Archie and not Mel. Let's see, dorky purple hair, pale skin, old blue hoody, yep that's Archie!

"Sorry, Atlanta!" He says quickly, helping me up.

"Man Archie, what do you have under you shirt?" I ask, but after realizing what I had just said blushed and I look at Archie to see him blushing too. Man when will these embarrassing moments end with Archie?

"I didn't mean... I mean I meant... Um... ?"

"Ah... I-I know..."

"OK."

Then I saw Theresa walk by. I smile at Archie before running after her.

"Hey, Theresa," I say walking up to her. "Are we getting a rabbit?"

"Nope!" She smiles.

"What are we getting then?" I hear Archie ask her from behind me.

"Something better than a puppy, kitten and bunny!"

"Theresa we don't have room for a horse right?" Archie asks her.

"It's not a horse!" She yells. "Oh Jay has them now, look!"

"Them?" Me and Archie ask and look at each other at the same time.

We look over to see Jay with... OH WOW.

"Say hello to three new members of the team!" He says so happy he could pop, as he pokes at a clear bag with three goldfish in it.

"You got fish?" Archie says crinkling his nose. "Wow, well be out in the car."

We pass Neil talking to a parrot.

"Pretty Bird!"

"No! Pretty Neil!!"

"Pretty bird!"

"NO, PRETTY NEIL!!"

Wow, now that's what I call obsessed.

As we leave for the door, I hear Theresa talking to Jay.

"I thought they would be more excited."

xoxo

"Wow Jay really went out on a limb for us to get fish!" Archie laughs.

"Yeah, and I thought we were gonna get a dog or cat or something..." I say rolling my eyes. "But I guess it's better than nothing."

"There are the happy parents coming now and of course Neil." Archie says as he points over to Theresa, Jay and Neil coming with the fish bag in hand.

"So why did we get fish?" I ask as I move into the middle again to make room for Neil.

"Well I think it's the best choice," Neil protests. "Because they don't make any noise or mess!"

"Exactly!" Theresa says turning back to us. "The perfect pet, better than a puppy or kitten or bunny!"

"Uh huh..." I say quickly followed by a yawn. "Man I'm tired"

"We are only 15 minutes away from the brownstone." Jay says as we pull out of the parking lot holding the fish bag up to look at his children.

Man I really am tired┘ I'm just gonna rest my eyes... zzzz.

xoxo

"Um... Atlanta?"

"Huh?"

'Were back..."

I open my eyes to see the brownstone. Wow I must have rested my eyes for longer than I thought...

I got out of the car and looked over at Archie. Why is he blushing? Then I hear the excited shriek form Theresa, and follow it into the brownstone. Oh yeah we got fish.

"What are we gonna name them?" I hear Odie ask Theresa and Jay as Neil, Archie and I enter the kitchen.

"Well I think you should get one," Theresa say gesturing towards Odie. "Since you got the tank ready."

"Yup, you can put them in at any time," Odie said happily. "The temperature is perfect for them."

"Great." Jay says as he poured the fish into their new home.

"And I should get one because they wouldn't be here without me!" Theresa says sounding very proud that she convinced Jay to get a fish... " And Jay should get one!"

"Wow, I feel special..." Archie whispers to me with sarcasm.

"I'll name mine, um... how about H20!! Odie laughs like it wa the most funniest thing in the world. "Get it! Because he is in H20!!

Wow that was awful, budy...

"I'll name mine... first mate!" Jay exclaims.

Oh Jay and his boats... sometimes I think that to him his boating magazines give him the same pleasure as naked girls... ew playboy.

"Aww, cute, then I'll name mine sea-men!" Theresa said probably trying to suck up to- wait what did she name that thing??

"Sea-men!!" Archie yells before he cracks up. Me and Neil soon join in.

OMG sea-men! Get it! Like semen! Oh wow, now that's funny!!

"What's so funny about the name sea-men?" Theresa asks when we quiet down, making us bust with laughter again.

Me, Archie and Neil leave a confused Theresa, Jay and Odie.

xoxo

I was in my room doing... homework. Blah. Man who ever invented home work needs to have all the hair on their body shaved off, then cut off their tongue and made eat it! Oh but this is like the worst homework there is... math. Like what the hell? They just won't stop by making us miserable at at school they make us miserable out of school too! And I can't get this math!! It makes no sense! GAAAHHHH!!

"I'M GONNA KILL MYSELF!!"

"Um... Atlanta, do you want me to help?" I look up at the door way to see Archie.

"PLEASE!" I yell at him, ready to grab the pillow in attempt to suffocate myself.

"OK..." He says sitting down. "What subject?"

"Math."

"Oh..." He says as he scans the paper. "This is easy, I got it done in class!"

Oh gee thanks that makes me feel smart... especially since this is Archie we are talking about, the kid who probably wears sandals because he can't tie his shoes.

I cross my arms and pout. I can't really help this it's just a habit, but it always seems to get his attention.

"Here I will show you..." He says and picks the book up.

After we finished my math, something pops into my head.

"Hey Archie, why were you blushing when I woke up?"

"When was this?" He asks me, getting a little nervous.

"When we got back from the pet store..."

"I... well... you sorta... fell asleep on my shoulder."

"Oh... that's why you were blushing?"

"Yeah... Um... Atlanta I have something to tell you..."

"Uh huh."

"Atlanta!! I need to talk to you!!" Theresa screams to me from her room.

"Hold on! What did you want to say Archie?"

"Um... nothing..."

"You sure?"

"Yeah..."

"Ok... thanks for helping me with my math."

I get up and leave, but I wanted to stay... man Theresa why did you have to yell my name I almost thought he was gonna... I dunno...

xoxo

"What?" I ask Theresa as I enter her room.

"Guess what happened?!"

"What?" I ask as I close the door and sit on her bed.

"Ok well, me and Jay were watching the fish and guess what Jay said?"

"What?"

"Well he turned to me and said that getting the fish was an awesome idea, and the he started saying how smart I was and he kept complimenting me and then he said about how beautiful I was!!"

"Really?!"

"YEAH!!"

"What happened after?"

"He seemed almost embarrassed about saying that because right after he started blushing... and then..."

"WHAT?"

"Well Athena got back from the store and walked in and I looked over to say hello to her and when I looked back, Jay was gone..."

"Omg."

"Yeah, well I'm pretty sure he likes me but I still want you to trick Archie into telling you he does."

Aw man that made me think of what had just happened between us...

"Whats wrong?" Theresa asks me because I guess my smile had turned into a frown.

"Well Archie w-"

"DINNERS READY!" Athena yells.

"Tell me later OK?" Theresa says giving me a weak smile.

"Yeah OK..."

Man what is up with all the interruption today?! This sucks...

xoxo

I was crossing my arms when I came downstairs for supper. And Archie seemed sorta shy around me, which made me cross my arms AND pout.

"Herry?" Athena asks. "Could you go up on the roof, were having soup."

xoxo
