Hey guys, I had planned on updating yesterday, but I was really busy with some last minute University stuff, but I've finished that, so I made sure to update today. I really hope you like it!
Chapter 10 -
Alexis walked up to Harley's front door, knocking a couple times. She hadnt seen him since he came to dinner at her place, and she wasn't going to tell him, but she kind of worried about him. She was about to knock again when the door opened, and a very sleepy looking Josiah answered the door.
"What?" He asked, yawning a little, "You know people are trying to sleep, right?"
"Uh, is Harley here?" She asked slowly, looking around to make sure she had the right house.
"Yeah, I think so." He shrugged, looking at her for a moment before shaking his head, "Right, you want to see him." He nodded a little, looking inside, "Harley! Your girlfriend is here!" He yelled, walking back inside.
Alexis stood outside the door, looking around. She could hear someone mumbling something on the other side of the door, and they didn't sound very happy. She started walking away when the door opened, and Harley walked out, taking a glance at her before walking off the porch.
"Hey," She said, standing in front of him.
"Hey," He sighed, looking around, "What are you doing here?"
"I wanted to see you. I haven't gotten to talk to you since dinner."
"Yeah, I've been busy."
"too busy to text?"
He shrugged.
"What's been going on?"
"Just stuff."
"That's it? Stuff?"
"Yeah, sorry. I just have to get to work, I'll see you later, yeah?"
She sighed a little, "Yeah, see you."
Casey walked towards the dock. He was supposed to meet Sarah a couple minutes before, but she was running late. He sat on the edge of the dock, looking around. He had spent most of the day before at the Jail with his dad. For someone he had never met, they hit it off pretty well. They just talked and talked, and one of the guards had to tell them visiting hours was over, but ended up letting him stay a little longer.
All his life he wondered why he liked Surfing, and sports so much, turns out he got that from his dad. He got a lot of stuff from his dad. He couldn't wait to tell Sarah about it. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have gone to see him.
He looked around, frowning a little when he saw Sarah talking to the guy they had seen a couple days before. He looked mad, and she looked kind of scared. Casey stood up, walking over to where they were standing. Sarah looked at him out of the corner of her eye, before looking back at the guy.
"Sarah? are you okay?" Casey asked.
"She's fine, mate. We're just having a little chat." The guy said, waving his hand at Casey.
"I think I was talking to Sarah. And I'm not your mate."
"Casey, leave it." Sarah shook her head, looking down.
"Who the hell are you?"
"A friend of Sarahs." The guy shrugged.
"Well, I'm her boyfriend, and I think you should leave her alone now."
"Casey." Sarah sighed.
"No, he's right, Sarah." The guy nodded, "Maybe me and you should have a chat."
"Mitchell, just leave him alone."
"How about you just get lost." Casey said, shoving him away.
Mitchel looked back and forth between Sarah and casey before shaking his, "You're going to regret that." He nodded, walking away.
Casey looked around at Sarah when she started walking the other way, "Sarah, are you okay?" He asked, grabbing her arm.
"I was fine before you came over there."
"Really, because you looked pretty freaked out to me."
"I was fine." She shook her head, looking down.
"Who was that?" He asked, looking around to see where he went, "Was that the same Mitchell you were talking about at the gym?"
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Sarah, come on. I thought you were going to talk to me."
"Not about this, Casey." She sighed, "How was everything yesterday."
Casey exhaled, looking around, "It was good. I went to see my dad."
"Seriously?" She smiled a little, "What did he say? What did you say? Was he happy to see you? What did your mum say when you asked her?"
Casey laughed a little, "We just talked about life, and school, and work...and you."
"Me? Why me?"
"Because I told about you, and how amazing and beautiful you are."
"You're so weird." She shook her head, "So, he was happy to see you?"
"Yeah, he was kind of surprised, like he even said he didn't think I was going to visit him." He nodded a little, "And I'm going to see him again tomorrow."
"Thats awesome," She smiled, "I told you he would want to see you, didn't I?"
"Yeah, you did." He smiled back, bumping her arm a little as they walked down the dock, "What did you do yesterday?"
"Studying mostly." She shrugged, looking down as they walked, "Mum's really gotten on me recently about the HSC and the importance of studying." She laughed a little, "Even though for the last couple months, I've done nothing but study, so I don't know."
"Well, maybe you need a study buddy." He smiled.
"What you?" She laughed when he nodded, "Sorry, Casey. but I think you would be too much of a distraction."
"Me? A distraction?" He smiled, leaning in to kiss her, "I think you could use a distraction from all that studying." He nodded, kissing her.
"What do you want to do?"
"How does Pizza sound?"
"Sounds great." She smiled, walking along side him as they walked towards Angelos.
Natalie walked out of her bedroom, pulling her wet hair into a ponytail as she walked into the kitchen where Hayden was sitting on the counter, reading something he had written down. She ignored him, walking to the fridge to grab a water bottle.
"Where were you last night?" Hayden asked, looking up from his notebook.
"Whats it to you?" She asked, closing the refrigerator.
"Nothing, just that Dad was wondering." He shrugged.
"Well, Ash doesn't need to worry, I was just with a friend." She smiled, glancing down at her phone.
Josiah: Morning Sleepy head. :)
Natalie: Sleepy head? Please. Did you just get up? Because I've been up for like, two hours. :)
Josiah: What? Me, just wake up? Pfffft.
Natalie laughed a little, looking up to see Hayden frowning at her. He raised an eyebrow, and looked at her like she was completely insane.
"What?" She rolled her eyes.
"Who are you talking to?"
"None of your business."
"Is it your boyfriend?" He asked, looking back down at his book.
"He's not my boyfriend, you grot."
"Then what is he?" He rolled his eyes.
"None of your business, okay?"
"So, you won't care if I go ask Mum about it?"
"Sure, if you don't mind me asking Ash about the window you broke." She shrugged.
"That was two weeks ago."
"And he still doesn't know, does he?"
"I won't say anything, if you tell me who it is."
"Or you won't say anything at all."
"Fine," He rolled his eyes, jumping off the counter, "Whoa."
"What is it this time?"
"Whats that?" He asked, pointing at her shoulder.
"Whats-" She stopped, grabbing her jacket off the table. She forgot about the tattoo, and wasn't really ready to explain what it was or why she got it, especially not to Hayden, "Nothing." She shook her head, pulling her jacket on.
"You got a tattoo?" His eyes went wide, "Mum's going to freak."
"Yeah, but shes not going to find out, and if she does, I swear, I will make your life miserable, Hayden."
"That was a threat!"
"Damn right it was a threat. So, keep your mouth shut!"
"What's going on?" Denny asked, walking into the kitchen.
"Nothing." Natalie shook her head, pushing Hayden away.
"Natalies got a tattoo!" Hayden yelled, pointing at his half-sister.
"You little sellout!"
"You've got a what?" Denny asked.
"Nothing, he doesn't know what he's talking about." Natalie shook her head, glaring at Hayden before looking back at her Mum.
"You got a tattoo?"
"Yeah," She nodded a little.
"Hayden, go to your room, Your sister and I need to talk."
"No way, I wanna see this." Hayden grinned.
"Hayden, go!"
He shrugged, walking out of the kitchen.
"Where is it?" Denny asked.
"Mum.."
"Show me."
Natalie pulled her jacket off, turning around to show her Mum the tattoo. She already knew she wasn't going to be happy about it, she knew that when she got it, but it was important to her, and she wanted to do it. She turned around, Denny didn't look happy, but she didn't really look mad either.
"Why?"
"What do you-"
"Why did you do this?" She sighed.
"Does it matter? It's already done."
"Of course it matters, Natalie!"
"Because I wanted to. Because, I didn't want to act like Ash was my dad, and forget all about my Dad. I just wanted to have something that I could look at, so I'll never forget about him." She shook her head, "I was going to tell you, I wanted to, but I knew you would react like this, You don't understand."
"Of course I understand."
"No, you don't. If you did, you wouldn't be overreacting about this. It's just a tattoo, Mum."
"It's not the tattoo, Nat. It's what it means."
"Stuff this." She shook her head, grabbing her bag and walking out the front door, not bothering to say where she was going or when she was going to be home.
Harley walked around Angelos, wiping off the counters as he walked around the restaurant. It had been a really slow morning already, and Harley was bored out of his mind. He glanced at the door as Drew walked into the restaurant, taking a seat by the wall. Harley walked over to the table, grabbing him by the shirt and shoving him against the wall.
"Dude, what the hell?" Drew said, frowning a little.
"What's your problem, huh?" Harley asked.
"I'm not the one shoving people up against walls when they didn't do anything wrong."
"You didn't do anything wrong?" He scoffed, "What the hell were you thinking taking my sister into the city."
"She asked if she could go, I thought it was okay."
"So you didn't think you should ask her parents about it? Huh?" He yelled, and would have kept going if Kyle hadnt walked over.
"Hey, hey!" Kyle yelled, pulling Harley away from Drew, "Calm down."
"No, You stay the hell away from my sister." He shook his head, walking out of the restaurant, running into Casey and Sarah.
"What's with him?" Casey asked, looking around at Kyle and Drew.
"Nothing, don't worry about it." Kyle shook his head, walking back behind the bar, leaving Drew leaning against the wall.
"What did you do?"
"Why do you think I did something?" Drew frowned.
"Because you're a riverboy, you're always causing trouble." He shrugged, "So, what did you do?"
"You know just because I live in mangrove river, doesn't mean I'm one of them. I didn't do anything wrong, and I don't get why you and your family thinks I did." He shook his head, walking out of the restaurant.
Sam walked around the dock. He was finally able to get around without his crutches, but still had to wear the knee brace. He leaned against the railing, looking around when he saw Isaac walking up to him.
"Hey mate," Isaac said, not looking straight at him.
"Did you get it?" Sam asked, looking down at the water.
"Yeah," He nodded, pulling a small brown paper sack out of his jacket pocket, and handing it to Sam, "You can't tell anyone where you got this."
"Wasn't planning it, idiot." Sam rolled his eyes, putting the bag in his jacket pocket.
"Pleasure doing business with you." He nodded, walking off as Chloe made her way down the dock.
"Sam? Whats going on?" Chloe asked, sitting on the edge of the railing.
"Nothing, why?" Sam shrugged.
"Why are you always talking to him?" She frowned a little, watching Isaac walk towards the water.
"What's your problem with him?"
"Other then the fact that he's a jerk, who gets everyone in trouble, and cheats off my papers during class, nothing."
"Yeah, well he's my friend so, you need to get over it."
"What's wrong with you lately? You're being a real jerk, Sam."
"Or maybe I was a jerk all along, and you're only just now realizing it."
"No, this isnt you. Why-"
"Maybe I'm just tired of hearing you yapping all the time. Do you even have an off switch?" He rolled his eyes.
"I don't know whats wrong with you, but until you're over it, I can't talk to you." She shook her head, walking away.

REVIEWS:
fanfiction.79: No, Sam's not coping well, but maybe he'll get better soon. I'm glad you liked Casey and Brax's bit, I've been looking forward to writing that part for a while now, and hoped you guys would enjoy it as much as I did writing it. :) Thanks for reading and reviewing!
fanficforyou: Hey, I'm glad you liked it. Maybe she will, but I dont see her Mum going along with that, do you? I've wanted to bring April and Dex back for a while, but didnt know how to until I thought up Josiah. :) Sam is definitely not coping well, takes after his dad in that way, eh? Ricky did take him, but when he was really little. You'll find out why she didnt take him again later on. :) Thanks for reading and reviewing!
frankElza: Thanks! Its totally okay, I'm just glad you got a chance to read it. :) Yeah, Sam's in a bad way right now, and I dont think it's helping him that his parents are paying more attention to Alexis.
Glad you liked Casey and Brax's reunion, I had a lot of fun writing it. I'm trying to fit in a Casey/Brax/Ricky scene, but I havent figured it out yet.
Harley and Bianca are really fun to do as well. Before I started writing it, I had a hard time deciding whether or not I wanted Harley to have any sort of Mum-Son relationship, but I decided that it would be cool since Harley didnt get to meet his Mum. :)
