I don't own BTR or any of the characters except, Abby.

Chapter 4- Ihop and Some more Flash Backs

Abby's POV

I woke up on a Saturday morning to get something to eat. I live with my Mom in the apartment 3B. It's 2 apartments down from James's... (starts to think about James)... Oh! Ummmmm... oh yeah, like I said I live in 3B and I am hungry for something to eat, so I got dressed and decided I should ask BTR (or my old best friends) if they wanted to come with me. So I went over to 5B and knocked on the door. Luckily some one opened the door and it was Carlos. He looked so familiar with his hockey helmet on. I smiled and asked him if he and the other guys would like to gets some breakfast.

He said, "Sure I would love to! I mean, WE would love to!" He invited me in and told me to wait while he got the others. Finally all of them were out ready to go with smiles on their faces. Well except for James's, he honestly looked like he needed more sleep. I felt bad for waking them up, well, to late to go back now! Anyway we walked out of the Palm Woods to go to, none other than... Ihop, and I decided to stay back and talk to James's while we were walking.

"Hey James, ummm why do you look like you didn't get any sleep?"I said. "Oh, well it all started when I woke up at midnight to get some milk...(and the rest of the story)" After he was finished with the story he looked a little more awake. "Hey, I'm sorry for waking you up", I said with a apologetic smile. He just smiled back and said, "No problem, at least I get to wake up to your beautiful face." I blushed and he smiled a very attractive smile, if you ask me, and held open the door foor me to Ihop.

James's POV

Ihop tasted good, it was even better that I got to sit by Abby. But of course Carlos sat on the other side of her. But I think she likes me. You know what? This situation with me and Carlos is very familiar...

*Flash Back*

I was walking up to Abby's house, it was Sunday afternoon and I felt good. Me, Abby, and the rest of the boys are 13. We are in 8th grade. We are still best friends, but me and Abby are the closest. Sometimes I wish I had the guts to ask her out. But I don't, but I have a feeling I might have to step up soon because Carlos has been all over her latley. It is driving me insane! I never have alone time with her anymore, if we do it's just for like 10 minutes. So I'm walking towards Abby's house when I see Carlos ringing her doorbell.

I wanted to send him away into a far off place but I couldn't so I just walked up to him and said, "Hey Carlos, What's up?"He turned to me with a surprised smile and said, "Oh, hey James. Nothing, just coming here to hang out with Abby." Well, duuhhh I knew that! Ugh, right now I'm not so fond of him. Soon after we finished our mini conversation Abby answered the door with her regular dimpled smile that I love. I smiled at her and said, "Hey Abby!" Only to find her laughing because me and Carlos said it at the same time. Me and Carlos looked at each other and fake laughed. Well at least I did.

Later that night it was getting really late, me and Carlos we secretly fighting for who is the last one to leave. We both wanted our alone time with Abby. But I had enough! After Abby asked for the third time, "Do you have to get home?" and Carlos said, "No." I lost it. I jumped up and started to yell at Carlos saying, "Stop ruining me and Abby's alone time! Why can't you give us some time by ourselves?" I didn't realize that I was yelling, there was no go back so I just didn't care. The next thing I knew it Carlos jumped up and yelled, "Hey! Stop acting like you're the only one who can hang out with her, I can too!" "I'm not!", I said. "Yeah, you are!"

Sooner or later Abby got up and pushed us apart. She yelled, "STTTOOOOPP! I have had enough! Now shut-up and stop ruining MY time with you guys." We then stopped and Carlos left. I felt bad, but I knew that I really didn't. I just wanted alone time with Abby. But it was, of course, to late to hang out so we said good bye with a hug and I made my way back to my house.

*End of Flash Back*

... Yeah that was annoying. You know what? This girl REALLY reminds me of someone I know, and it's killing me to not figure it out! Hmmmmm...
