*The Next Day*
''Hoags!'' (Sorry, I know this nickname is used a lot but I couldn't think of anything better)
Hoagie turned around and saw Abby running towards him from across the street. (No she is not gonna get hit so get that thought out of your head :P)
''Hey Abby'' Hoagie greeted her as she slowed down to a walk beside him. They started walking in step with each other while they walked to school together again.
''So has anyone come up with a song for the Talent show yet?'' Abby asked.
''Nope, not yet. Everyone came up with a more ideas but none were good enough'' Hoagie answered her as he turned to look at her.
Abby laughed a little, ''You mean nothing was good enough for you amazing talent?'' Abby joked looking back at him.
Hoagie laughed along with her before saying, '' Yea nothing is good enough for THE Hoagie!''
''Hoags I think you have spent way too much time with Tommy'' Abby said giggling a bit.
''THE TOMMY!'' A voice screamed from somewhere.
They both looked around them freaked out a little before shrugging it off and continuing on their way.
''Yea maybe'' Hoagie agreed throwing her a lopsided grin.
They sat in comfortable silence until a memory struck Hoagie's brain.
''Hey Abby?''
''Yea?''
''Can we talk about...'' Hoagie left the sentence hanging in the air as he thought she would understand. She didn't.
''Can we talk about what?'' She asked him looking at him with pure curiousness in her eyes.
''Uh...You know...the kiss...'' Hoagie drifted off again. He could feel his cheeks heating up on his face but at the moment he didn't care. He really did want to talk about it.
When he said that Abby felt her throat clamp up and a blush rise on her face. She tugged the front of her hat down as she tried to hide it. Fortunately, it did.
''Um...what kiss?'' She asked hoping he would get the hint and leave the topic alone. At least for now.
After she had shut her house door, Abby ran up to her room quickly.
As soon as the door to her room was shut she started praising herself for getting enough courage to kiss his cheek. She absolutely loved it, but she did give herself a tough time for it not being his lips.
She might have been ready for that, but definitely wasn't ready for this talk. Not. At. All.
Thankfully, before either of them could utter a word a shout rang out towards them.
''Hey guys!'' Rachel shouted out to them. She ran towards them, followed by Nigel, Wally, and Kuki.
Abby and Hoagie looked up in shock.
They just noticed that they were already at the school. They both thought in their minds that if it wasn't for Rachel they definitely would have walked right past it.
''Oh, Hey!'' Abby said as she walked over to Kuki and Rachel, eager to get out of the awkward conversation she almost had with Hoagie.
She started leading them away from the guys, much to their confusion. But they shrugged it off and took it as ladies' business, well everyone but Hoagie who took it as he did something wrong.
(*With the Girls*)
Abby continued to lead them away from the guys until she thought it was far enough.
Rachel and Kuki turned around with confused looks as Abby finally stopped pushing them.
''What?'' Abby asked trying to act normal and innocent. The other girls just rolled their eyes and continued to stare at her, ''Really what?''
''Abby what the crud was that?'' Kuki asked her breaking the staring match between her and Abby and looked behind her at the guys that were far away from them.
Abby started playing with her hat and said coolly, '' I don't know what you're talking about.''
''Yea right! Now really tell us what's up!'' Rachel commanded her silently, not wanting to attract any unwanted attention.
Abby ignored them and continued to fiddle with her hat. After a few minutes, Kuki reached up to Abby's hands slowly and pulled them down softly.
''Abby please...what's going on?'' Kuki asked her looking at her with her wide violet eyes that were filled to the brim with concern.
Abby sighed and started telling them what happened last night between her and Hoagie. (Read the last chapter to know)
They both listened intently. When she finally told them about the kiss they started squealing with excitement silently. When she finished her story they started bombarding her with questions.
''What was it like?''
''How did it feel?''
''Did you feel anything?''
''How did you get the courage to do it?''
''What's you favorite color?''
''What did he do afterwards?''
''Did he-''
''Guys, shut up!'' Abby whispered/screamed at them making them instantly, ''Now the answers to your questions that I have no idea why I'm answering. It was amazing! It felt kind of magical...I thought I felt a little tingling when I did it...I don't really know...I just did it...dark blue- Wait why the crud did you ask that Kuki? You know my favorite color!''
Kuki shrugged innocently, '' I don't know...I was gonna ask you something else but it's like someone made those words come out of my mouth...''
They both looked at her like she was crazy, '' Girl what the heck does that mean?'' Abby asked her raising a eyebrow.
''I don't- You know what? Just forget it. Now keep telling us about you make out session with Hoagie'' Kuki said smirking when her best friend's face lit up like a fireplace.
'' It wasn't a make out session! It was just a kiss on the cheek!'' Abby exclaimed at Kuki. Weirdly, not getting much notice for the random shout out.
''Sure it wasn't now continue'' Rachel smirking Kuki's way as they continued to tease Abby.
(*With the Guys*)
''Hey Hoagie! What's up?'' Wally asked him coming up to him and fist-bumping him. They hadn't noticed the awkward tension when they walked up.
Hoagie didn't hear him as he was to caught up in his thoughts.
'What was wrong with her? I just wanted to know why she kissed my cheek...It's not like I didn't like it or anything, I loved it! Maybe it was something I said...' Hoagie thought guiltily. He didn't want her mad at him.
''Hoagie!'' Wally finally screamed in his ear getting bored with snapping his fingers in front of his face.
Hoagie almost jumped out of his skin when he did that. He turned and glared at said blond person while rubbing his poor temporary deafened ear.
''What the heck Wally? You practically blew out my ear drums!'' Hoagie shouted
at him, punching him in the shoulder.
''Well sorry Hoagie!'' Wally shouted back sarcastically, '' I was just trying to get you out of lala land!''
''Well you didn't need to deafen me for that!'' Hoagie grumbled out.
''Fine sorry'' Wally said hiding his eyes beneath his bangs to roll his eyes.
''Anyway Hoagie what's wrong with Abby?'' Nigel asked after the annoying quarrel with his friends was over, ''She looked nervous or something.''
Hoagie's eyes widened and he looked over at Abby to see her looking at Kuki like she was crazy.
''Um..Nothing'' Hoagie answered looking back at Nigel.
''Yea sure'' Nigel said sarcastically while rolling his eyes, ''Really, what's up?''
''Well I asked her a question'' Hoagie said avoiding eye contact with both boys.
''What did you ask her?'' Wally asked coming into the conversation. (I'll apologize now instead of at the end of the chapter. I am sorry if anyone has been OCC or will be later on)
''Well I asked her about last night...'' Hoagie trailed off before giving in and telling them the whole story.
After he was done both Wally and Nigel had knowing smirks, but still had shocked, widened eyes.
''Way to go man! That's awesome!'' Wally said patting Hoagie on the back who just looked at him weirdly.
''Yes that is quite extraordinary Hoagie'' Nigel said changing his smirk into a happy smile, ''I hope you and Abby have a great relationship!''
Hoagie's eyes widened to the size of saucers.
''What the heck? We're not a couple!'' Hoagie exclaimed in a whisper with a face as red as Clifford the big RED dog. (hehe when I started thinking of red things he popped in my head!)
Wally and Nigel shared a confused glance at each other.
''What do you mean? She kissed you right?'' Nigel asked.
''Yea when a girl kisses you on the lips it means your a couple right? Or wait, is it the other way around? I don't get this romance crud!'' Wally shouted grabbing this hair and yanking it down a little.
''Wally don't pull your hair out'' Nigel said slapping Wally's hands from his head, ''We have already seen you bald once, we don't want to see it again.''
''When the crud have you seen me bald?'' Wally asked him surprised.
''Well there was that one time with the lice, remember?'' Nigel said rubbing a invisible beard on his chin, ''Oh and that one time you came back from the future and you were practically bald.''
''What! That old geezer was me?'' Wally asked while looking at his hand as if to see wrinkles or any other signs of aging.
''Yea it was, I thought we told you that'' Nigel said still rubbing that invisible beard of his.
''No you guys didn't! And that old guy wasn't bald! His hair was thinning!'' Wally said coming to the defense of his future self.
''Wally that's just another way to say your going bald!'' Nigel shouted looking up at him through his dark sunglasses.
''Nuh uh! It is not! What-'' Wally started shouting before he got interrupted from what was like opening a can of jumping beans. ANGRY jumping beans that is.
''Guys shut up! Weren't we talking about my problem!'' Hoagie shouted breaking them apart with his hands before he remembered what they had said, ''And me and Abby aren't dating!''
''But I thought you said she kissed yo-'' Wally started saying before getting interrupted again.
''Yea she did! On the cheek!'' Hoagie said loudly before looking down at his shoes, blushing furiously at the mention of the kissed shared between Abby and himself.
'I wonder what she felt about it...Did she feel a little tingling too?' Hoagie thought hopefully with a goofy smile.
Nigel and Wally didn't seem to notice though as their friend started going off into lala land because they were just standing there with confused faces. Luckily, they didn't have to do anything about it because right then Hoagie shook himself out of his thought himself.
''Anyway, she only kissed me on the cheek not the lips'' Hoagie said before adding his mind, 'Though I would have liked it better if it was on the lips...'
''Okay but it's still good'' Nigel said smiling.
''Yea I guess so'' Hoagie said returning the smile.
''Okay come on let's go catch up with the girls before school starts'' Nigel stated turning around and heading towards the direction of the laughing girls.
''Yea come on Hoagie'' Wally agreed before following behind Nigel.
''Okay I will'' Hoagie said but he couldn't help but keep wondering.
'I wonder what they're having for lunch in the cafeteria...hopefully chilidogs...If not I brought my own...Wait! I'm supposed to be thinking about Abby!...I wonder if she felt that tingling like I did...'
(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)
Hoagie was walking down towards his class when something horrible happened.
''Hey Hoagieeeeeeesssss...'' A voice purred in his ear. Hoagie jumped and turned around to see who it was. When he saw who it was he tried to turn around and run away, but the person was too fast for him.
''Hoagie! It's been too long!'' The voice shouted pulling him close to the person's chest.
''Emily let me go!'' Hoagie screamed finally squirming out of her arms, ''Are you back already?''
''Yes! After the first day I couldn't take it but my parents wouldn't let me go, so a few days later I knocked them out and drove us home so I can come find you!'' Emily said pouting, trying to get him back in her arms.
Yes, Emily, AKA Hoagie's stalker, is back. She had on one of her usual tight fitting sky blue shirts that practically praised Hoagie and some white skinny jeans with some sky blue heels.
She even had on a pair of Hoagie's goggles that she stole from him in Junior high when they first met.
''Emily...Where are your parents now?'' Hoagie asked cautiously.
Sure, he fought adults for the TND but that doesn't mean he doesn't acre about some of them. He sure would like for someone to know where he was if his kid suddenly knocked him out and drove somewhere.
''There outside in the car'' Emily said with a somewhat flirty voice.
Hoagie had to hold down his lunch when she spoke like that. It sounded weird and wrong to him when she did it.
''Are they okay?'' Hoagie asked, again, cautiously.
''Why do you care? Do you care about them more than me?'' She screamed at him with angry tears in her eyes.
Hoagie was scared. He saw what happened to Wally when the girls got mad at him and he surely didn't want to be him. He had a feeling Emily might be 10x worse.
''No, No, No! I just wanted to see if they were happy about their trip!'' Hoagie lied.
'What a lame excuse! Really? You wanted to see if they liked their trip!' Hoagie thought while mentally smacking himself.
Fortunately for him, Emily seemed to buy it and her tears disappeared, it looked like they were never there.
''Oh Hoagie!'' Emily cried successfully getting her arms around him, much to his annoyance, ''It's adorable for the boyfriend to care about his girlfriend's parents!''
Hoagie tried getting her arms off of him but she had a vise-like grip, ''Emily for the millioneth time, we're not together and we never will be! I'm sorry but I like someone else!'' Hoagie said with a grunt as he pushed on her arms.
Hoagie flew onto the floor when her grip weakened suddenly. He landed on his butt.
Hoagie looked up to see what had got him loose but as soon as he saw Emily's eyes completely regretting it.
Her eyes held a unusual coldness in them. She was staring at him with anger and jealousy.
''Oh right, the Abigail Lincoln girl right?'' She asked with a unusual calm and collected voice that made shivers go down his spine. Not the good ones either.
Hoagie blushed at least 11 different shades of red. He got up off the floor and stood across from her nervously.
''I have no idea what your talking about...'' Hoagie lied quietly stated turning his nervous gaze to his shoes. How the heck did she know he liked Abby?
''Don't lie Hoagie! I've seen the way you stare at her!'' Emily said angrily pointing a accusing finger at him, ''And to think you still like her and we've been dating for two weeks!''
Hoagie blushed. It was both from embarrassment and anger. This girl was really getting on his nerves.
''Emily we are NOT going out!'' Hoagie said glaring at her.
''Fine we're not but I know you want to!'' Emily said putting her arm back down to her sides.
''No I don't!'' Hoagie said getting even more frustrated, ''I'm sorry Emily but I don't like you like that.''
''Fine I'll let you go for now, but I'll be back'' Emily said turning around to leave when the school bell started ringing.
When Emily was just about to get out of the way as to not get squashed by the stampede of students that was about to come when she saw her.
Her as in Abigail Lincoln. As in the Abigail Lincoln who stole her Hoagie. Abby was making her way over to Hoagie, waving at him, but he hasn't seem to notice her yet.
Emily made a evil smile before walking back over to Hoagie.
''Hey Hoagie?'' Emily asked tapping his shoulder with a ''innocent look on her face.
Hoagie rolled his eyes in frustration but turned around to face her anyway, ''What now Emi-''
Too bad for Hoagie when he turned around Emily took that chance to kiss him on the lips, much to his horror.
He darted his eyes to his left when he heard a gasp.
Adding even more to his torture, there was Abby with her mouth hanging open in shock.
Abby closed her mouth with a pained, hurt look. She could feel the tears welling up in her eyes but she turned and walked away before he could see them.
Hoagie broke away from the disgusting kiss with Emily and turned to run after her but when he started to look for her she was gone. Not even a sign that she was there at all.
Hoagie turned to face Emily with a angry expression, ''What the heck Emily? Why did you do that?''
Emily made a evil smile again, ''Because I want you all to myself Hoagie.''
''Emily you just ruined any of my chances-'' Hoagie started to say before getting interrupted.
''You don't think that I know that I ruined any of your chances with Abby?'' Emily asked with a roll of her eyes before grinning at him and pecking him on the cheek, ''Bye-Bye Hoagie!''
Hoagie watched her walk away until she got mixed in with all the other students. He started wiping his lips and his cheek with his hand in disgust.
He turned and walked over to a innocent trash can and kicked it with all his might. It left a huge dent mark.
Hoagie kicked it a few more times before leaving to find Abby and apologize.
(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)
Rachel and Kuki were walking down the hallway from their classroom they just left. They had become better friends since Rachel agreed to do the Talent show with them.
''Hey Kuki?'' Rachel asked her as they came up to her locker. They were getting their books for their next class, which they had together.
''Yea?''
''Have you seen Abby lately? I haven't seen her since the beginning of school'' Rachel said grabbing her books from her locker and slamming the door shut.
''No I haven't, I was going to ask you if you've seen her'' Kuki said before a panicky and concerned look came up on her face, ''What if something's happened to her?''
Rachel placed her hands on her new friend's shoulders in a attempt to sooth her friend's fear, it worked.
''Kuki calm down. I don't think anything has happen-''
Before Rachel could finish her sentence a speedy red, white, and blue blur knocked them both to the floor. The blur didn't seem to notice as it continued to run down the hallway, running into occasional people.
Rachel got up off the floor and offered her hand to Kuki to help her. She accepted it gratefully and got up off the floor herself.
Kuki stared off into the direction the blur ran with a thoughtful look.
''Was that Abby?'' Kuki asked to no one in particular before running after her friend, shouting her name in the process. Rachel followed after her as a concerned look adorned her features.
They looked everywhere Abby may have gone before running outside. It didn't take too long to find her then.
They both found Abby outside leaning against the tree they usually met at crying a river. Literally, there was a little river traveling down through the grass.
Kuki came up and wrapped Abby up in a concerned hug. ''What's wrong Abby?''
Abby pulled away from the hug and laid against the trunk of the tree again.
''Nothing...'' Abby said softly, sniffling a little bit. She moved her gaze from their concerned faces down to her hands in her lap.
''Don't lie to us Abby'' Rachel said worriedly, yet sternly, ''Now what's wrong?''
Abby sighed. She knew they wouldn't give up until she told them. ''Hoagie is what's wrong.''
''Okay what did Hoagie do?'' Kuki said quietly before grumbling out angrily, ''It better not be another chili dog-to-hat incident.'' (Yep I know Abby isn't a person who cries over everything, I'm trying to show she cares about that hat deeply, well I hope so)
Abby felt a sad smile tugging at the corner of her lips when she heard Kuki grumble that. She resisted it and took up to sighing instead. Abby sighed again before she began telling them what happened. Both Rachel and Kuki listened intently.
When Abby finished they were both really close to growling. How dare Hoagie do that to her!
Kuki got up and started stomping down the hill, shortly followed by a nervous Abby and a curious Rachel.
''Kuki where are you going?'' Abby asked her as she finally got her to stop by grabbing her arm.
Kuki turned around and her angry expression turned into a sympathetic one.
''Abby, I do care and love Hoagie, like family, but no one should do that to somebody'' Kuki answered sympathetically pulling her arm gently out of her hold.
''Kuki! Calm down! He didn't know I liked him like that and if you go Kuki-crazy he'll know for sure!'' Abby said hoping to stop her.
Before Kuki could argue, Abby also added, '' Please don't. Trust me, I want to hit him myself but he didn't know. So please don't do anything.''
Kuki calmed down a little as she stared at Abby's desperate face. She bit her lip thinking about it before obliging and calming down completely and nodded in agreement.
Abby smiled at her and pulled her and Rachel into a friendly hug. They stayed like that for a few minutes before pulling away, smiling happily.
Kuki giggled as she remembered what Abby said before. ''Do I really go 'Kuki-Crazy' on people when I'm mad?''
Abby laughed along with Rachel before answering her once again giggling friend, '' Yes. Yes you do. You actually scare me sometimes when your mad.''
Kuki laughed and Abby and Rachel joined in with her.
Still laughing they headed towards the school.
