Ok thanks for the reviews. in the last chapter Chelsea and Vaughn shared little bit of a half-kiss I guess.

Chapter 7

Chelsea's eyes widened and quickly got off of Vaughn blushing like mad.

And Vaughn quickly put his on and pulled it over his face hiding his blush. "um…. I ..I'm …so sorry….." Chelsea stuttered and quickly ran for her bathroom. She slam the door and sat on the toilet. She put a hand on her mouth and blushed more as she felt a slight tingling sensation on her lips and cheek. (why am I such a klutz…)

She thought and pictured Vaughn yelling at her and never talking to her again.

She was afraid she would lose her best friend. And she couldn't stand that.

Back in the main room of the house Vaughn sat in bed still holding his hat to his face.

His lips and cheek were tingling and covered in Chelsea's chap stick. He kept thinking about how soft her lips felt and then mentally slapped himself for thinking that.

(what's wrong with me….I shouldn't think that way about her….. That kind of thinking is for her ….boyfriend..) Vaughn sighed a little at that thought. (her boyfriend…) and wondered if he would ever get the guts to tell her…. (but Chelsea is special….. And she has been my best friend other than Denny since I got to this island…)

Flashback

Vaughn was working at the animal shop when a lock broke on the cow pen and they broke out of there fence and ran out to the part of the store where the customer's would be. Vaughn raced around trying to herd them into the backroom when the bell to the door rang. Vaughn's eyes widened had Mirabelle come home already! He ran to the door to see the rancher standing there looking confused as to why there were cows lose in the store. Then he yelled "you ! What are you doing here we are closed today!" Chelsea jumped then yelled back "what are you yelling at me for ! I didn't do anything wrong!" he stared no one had ever yelled back at him before…. Then giving her a stern look calmly asked again. "alright then ….why are you here?" she handed him a brown paper bag. "Mirabelle asked me to bring you your lunch." Vaughn took the bag and tipped his hat as a thanks.

"so why are there baby cows running around in the shop?" she asked. Vaughn sighed and looked at the floor. "it's nothing…" he said Chelsea gave him a look. "Well it sure looks like something to me…" she said. Vaughn finely gave in. "the lock on the cow pen gave out…." Chelsea's expression softened and she grabbed two calf's and walked to Vaughn "then let me help." she said. Vaughn grabbed another calf and lead her to the back room.

After awhile they finely had all the cows in the pen. Chelsea looked at the lock and said "wait here ." and left for a few minuets then came back with a new lock. She handed Vaughn the lock "I got it from gannon." she said and then they fixed the lock. After a wile Mirabelle came home and thanked Chelsea for delivering Vaughn's lunch. When Chelsea walked out the door a hand caught her shoulder. She truned to see Vaughn.

"can I ask you something?" he asked "sure." taking his hand off her shoulder he said "why did you help me today?"

Chelsea smiled and answered "because you needed it. And I help all my friends."

Vaughn just stared. "we… are …friends?" Chelsea smiled "I hope we can be….good friends." Chelsea gave him a smile and left Vaughn standing in the rode.
