Darren came back down stairs. Chord threw the phone on the chair where he had left it and proceeded to look busy

"I forgot my phone" Darren said looking at Chord suspiciously

"Oh yeah? hmm.." Chord said acting like he had no idea what Darren was talking about

Darren took his phone and shot chord a look signing the "I'm looking at you" sign to him

Chord laughed and put his hands up.

"I didn't even realize you left it" chord said

Darren put his phone in his pocket and left to go the studio where everyone would be working on their songs.

In the studio….

Amber was belting out a song in the booth and darren got there just in time to sit in the waiting area and swoon. he wiped away his tears as she belted the last note.

"Perfect" Ali Anders said into the mic. "I think that's a wrap, Amber. Go get some water"

Amber smiled and went out to find Darren sitting there.

"Hey D" Amber said winking at Darren. His stomach did cartwheels.

"Hey umm Amber. you were great. I really love your voice and the way you belted that last note. Oh my god" Darren said grabbing on to his chest.

Amber laughed.

"Thanks D. I'll catch you on set" Amber waved goodbye and started walking out looking for her phone in her purse. She took it off silent to see she had two new voicemails. She dialed it in and listened.

"you have two new voicemails. first voicemail"

"hey gorgeous its Kevin. Listen I got us lunch. tex mex! your fave! I'm waiting for you by your trailer. Don't make a brotha wait"

Amber smiled. she had the greatest friends.

Amber?AMBER!….

Amber's eyes widened. She could not believe what she was hearing. Chord was on the other end of her phone asking for her help.

"kidnapped? oh hell no! what kinda crazy shit is that?" Amber decided she was going to ditch Kevin and find Cory

Cory was running lines with Lea when a very angry Amber walked in.

"Cory! We need to talk!" Amber shouted.

Cory gave her his full attention and Lea got the clue and walked away

"Are you gonna hit me again?" Cory said sadly

"What?" amber said almost shouting. she remembered what Chord said in the voicemail. she was going to play this off.

"I'm not going to hit you silly! I was just wondering if you wanted to do lunch with me?" Amber said batting her eyes

Cory's heart jumped.

"uhh…but I thought that was your thing with Kevin?" Cory asked

Amber really wanted to smack the crap out of Cory

She clenched her teeth

"Yes, but today I want to have lunch with you!" she grabbed on to his arm

"Have you been working out" Amber asked

"Not really" cory responded.

"how bout we go to your house? I'll cook! anything you want!" Amber said.

"but all I have is peanut butter and a bottle of vinegar" Cory said honestly

Amber was screaming inside. This boy would be the death of her.

"okay, so we'll skip lunch. We can play some black ops together" Amber said forcing a smile

"you play? okay!" Cory said excited

"Let me get my car keys" Cory said running for his trailer

amber smacked her head. This was too easy

Cory came back smiling and lead Amber to his car.

The two stayed relatively quiet until they arrived at Cory's house.

Cory had completely forgotten about mission: chord overstreet is in the basement

since he was too fixated on Amber.

Amber walked in with Cory and Cory started opening the door to his basement still completely oblivious.

"You know I'm really happy you came over. I think you're so talented Amber and one of the coolest girls I have ever met" Cory beamed

"thanks cory. you're pretty cool yourself" Amber walked down the steps and she gasped.

There was Chord sitting in front the television eating a full bag of lay's with a 3 liter Diet coke

"holy crap! I forgot about you!" Cory said smacking his forhead

Chord turned around and jumped up, wiping the crumbs off himself.

"Amber! you came!"

Amber hugged him and turned around to look at Cory

"Are you insane? This is some serious "Ransom" shit" amber yelled referencing the gibson movie

"we didn't hurt him! It was only until one of us got a duet with you!" Cory confessed

Amber looked at Chord who shrugged and raised his eyebrows.

"They've fallen off the rocker" Chord said

"Cory, now I know this wasn't only your idea" Amber said

"I will forgive you and Chord and I won'te tell anyone else if you tell me who was involved" Amber said to Cory

Cory fell for her sweetness again

"Kevin! it was his idea!" Cory said

"AND?"Chord said opening his eyes wide

"Mark…Darren, harry and Dianna" Cory said sighing

"DIANNA?" Amber and Chord said in unison

"uh yeah. She's the one who came up with who would watch Chord and when" Cory said

Amber looked at Cory in disbelief

"OH MY GOD! This is some serious 20/20 shit!" Amber said.

"Let's go Chord!" Chord followed her and turned around to look at Cory and stuck out his tongue

"So we can't tell anyone what happened" Chord said to Amber

"what?" Amber said "why not?"

"cuz we're bros. you know we can't rat eachother out "

"You're ridiculous Chord" Amber said

"If this is Ransom, then you're like Mel Gibson" Chord said approving of his analogy

"Except I'm a girl" Amber said walking out of the house

"And you're super hot" chord said

Amber turned around

"What did you say?" amber asked

"And you're super…."

amber smiled…"okayyyy"
