OK guys here's chapter 7! i'm so sorry for the long wait, iv just been busy.. and lazy.

CH7

It was a warm day in coast valley and the high school had just let their students out of their classes for lunch.

When Diego got to the cafeteria he looked around to try and see if the herd or the football team was there. He found the latter first. Diego walked over to the teams table and took a seat next to Soto who was telling some funny story to a couple of cheerleaders who had huddled around him.

"Hey bro, what's up" Diego asked his older cousin

"I was just sharing a story with these lovely ladies" Soto said, not turning his gaze away from the girls in front of him.

'Lovely ladies?' Diego had to raise an eyebrow at that. Soto would never show such chivalry unless he was trying to get with a girl. Diego got out his sandwich and was about to take a bite when...

"OMG, like, hi Diego!" Diego was then tackled in a hug by one of the cheerleaders, almost falling off the bench he was sitting on. He looked up at the girl who had just jumped on him. She had long straight blond hair, a perky face, and brown eyes with an over hyper glint.

"Hey Hanna" he said trying to pry himself from her grip.

"Hey so I was wondering," she said sitting on the table in front of Diego "are you doing anything this weekend?"

"I have football practice Saturday night. Why?" Diego asked.

"Well I was wondering if you would like to hang out some time" she said, reaching out and brushing back his hair.

"Like a date or what?" Diego asked.

"Of course a date silly what else."

Diego rolled his eyes at her "Eh, sure why not, I'm free Saturday morning" he said drinking a sip of his soda.

"Cool, so can you pick me up around 1:00?"

" Yeah whatever" Diego waved her off. 'Why am I doing this exactly' he thought to himself, as Hanna turned back to her pack of cheerleaders

"So Soto, what are you doing this weekend?" Diego asked his cousin, who didn't answer. "Soto, buddy?" He heaved his hand in front of him, but noticed that he was staring at someone, so Diego followed his gaze. He was looking at Shira who was with the rest of the Pirates on the other side of the cafeteria, and Diego couldn't blame him for staring. She was wearing a black off the shoulder T-shirt and a pair of cut off denim shorts that showed off her leg. Diego rolled his eyes at his (seemingly) lovestruck cousin, before slapping him on the side of the face

"OW! What the fuck was that for?!" Soto said to his cousin, as he rubbed his sore cheek.

"Dude, you keep staring at her like that and it's only going to end up two ways." Diego said as he held up two fingers "One: you fall completely in love with the chick, or Two: she claws your eyes out"

Soto brushed off his cousins warning and Diego rolled his eyes at him.


It was about 2:00 and Diego was now at the mall with Hanna, and waiting for her to get out off a store that she had been taking way too long in.

'No more dates with this girl' Diego thought to himself as he leaned against a gate behind him. Just then he heard someone yelling around the corner.

"STOP! THIEF!" Fallowed by the sounds of two sets of footsteps.

Diego leaned forward to try and get a look at what was going on, but was smacked into by someone and fell onto the floor.

"Watch where you're going you-" Diego stopped mid sentence as he looked up at the person who had fallen to the ground with him. A girl with black hair and piercing blue eyes was staring at him "Shira? What are you.." Diego looked down at her hands, which were covered in black gloves, that were holding two sparkling necklaces and three rings. "What the hell, are you're stealing?!"

Shira looked around her wildly, panic running over her usually calm gaze. "Listen Diego, please just let me go. Just this one time! I can pay you back if you can buy me some time!" she hissed at him, pleadingly.

Diego looked over his shoulder to see if anyone was watching. He knew what it was like to be in a gang, and what the consequences were like if you couldn't carry out a task. "Ok fine, but just this once!" He whispered to her as he helped her to her feet and pushed her into a run. Just then a chubby security guard ran around the corner. Diego casually stuck out his foot, and the guard tripped, face planting onto the tile floor.

"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry! Are you ok sir?" Diego asked with fake innocence, making a big show of brushing off the guard.

"I'm fine kid, just let me go!" The guard barked at him. Diego looked up to try and see where Shira was, only to not be able to find her anywhere. He quickly let the guard go, who ran in the direction he had been going.

Diego shook his head, 'Why did I let her go exactly? She was committing a crime!" he thought to himself. Just then he felt a tap on his shoulder.

"Um... What was that?" Diego whirled around, and ended up face to face with Hanna.

"What was what?" Diego said sheepishly.

"Don't act stupid, I saw you let that girl get away! Is she your girlfriend or something?" Hanna asked, putting her hand on her hip.

"What? NO! She… she spit in my eye.. and I accidentally let her go." Diego lied.

"I dont believe you" Hanna said, pointing a finger at him. "Just take me home, now!"

Diego let out a frustrated sigh. "Fine, whatever.." And then they left.
