"Oh my gosh, Missy…shut up!" Andie groaned as she clicked around on Sami's lap top. Missy would NOT stop talking about Sami's part and it was driving Andie completely insane!
"I want this to be the perfect night for Sami, excuse me for trying to keep my best friend involved" Missy defended as she propped head up on her arms as she stared at Andie's frustrated profile.
Andie sighed and closed her eyes, "Sorry…it's just…ugh…this whole Chase thing…"
Missy looked sympathetically at her best friend and placed her hand on her back in a comforting matter, "Sweetie, its ok…he has good reason…you know that…"
Andie opened her eyes slowly, "I know…its just…I miss him…the crew…I just…what if all of this 'time apart' becomes permanent…I don't think I can take that Missy…so many things, people have been taken away from me in life…and he…I just don't want to be left hang'n…"
"Oh, sweetie…" Missy cooed softly, as she rubbed small circles on Andie's back, "…usted no vale la pena marcharse...I see the way he looks at you…there is no way he'd ever want to hurt you intentionally…"
Andie kept her face buried in her hands as she leaned on the table, she listened to Missy's words and they made her feel just a little bit better. Chase was everything to her at this point. The one thing that made waking up to broken family and going to a school where everyone looked at her like she was a street rat…worth it.
Everyone snapped their heads towards the door when they heard it open, with the laughter of two overly happy teenagers.
"Morning" Moose greeted everyone, still recovering from his laughing session with Sami.
"Hi" Sami laughed as she placed her work out bag near the door.
"Hi…" Cable replied he was chilling on the floor with Monster, Hair, and Smiles. They were arguing with Kido and Fly about BBoys vs. BGirls controversy.
"What's so hilarious?" Missy grinned, her eyebrow raised as she eyed the couple expectantly.
Moose and Sami looked at each other and busted out laughing. The rest of the crew looked at each other and mumbled things. "Awkward…" was definitely one of them.
"Ok…so…we were turning on Main Street…right?" Moose gasped for air, and Sami wasn't any better.
"…and this idiot…" Sami laughed pointing at Moose, "…decided…decided…"
They were both laughing so hard that no one understood what the heck they were trying to say. The crew just stared at the two like they were alien and awkwardly shifted their eyes to one another.
"Ohhh kay…never mind…" Andie commented and tapped her fingers on the top of the table before she got up.
--
The group worked for the next 2 hours it was about 11:00a.m. now and they were all pretty whipped out. Right then an exhausted Chase burst through the door. All eyes flew to Andie who had an equally exhausted look on her face, but for a different reason.
"Sorry…I'm…late…guys…" Chase breathed as he stood in the open door way. No one said anything they just stared at Andie and waited for her to do something. Taking the cue, Andie lifted her self off the ground and dusted off her sweats. She slowly made her way toward Chase and once she was right in front of him. Chase stared tiredly down at her, by the looks of it he was completely worn. She lightly pushed him out into the hallway and closed the door behind them. The rest of the crew quietly picked up their own conversations.
"Look…I know what you're going to say…but you know what's been going on Andie…" Chase sighed deeply. "If I had a choice you know I'd be here working my butt off for you guys…for you….you know that"
Andie silently lifter her head to look at him, she slowly crossed her arms and sighed, "I know…"
"Do you?" Chase asked as he lifted her chin up which had once again fallen. Chase stared into her eyes desperately trying to reconnect, "You do know that, right?"
Andie stared back for a moment, and just when she really wanted to be angry with Chase…she knew she couldn't. She felt that warmth of protection and trust and she couldn't help but smile, and sigh. Andie nodded.
Chase grinned and bent down to place a simple kiss on Andie's lips before he pulled her into a quick hug. They walked back into the dance studio together and the group couldn't help but notice that they were all smiles.
--
"So…you and Chase fix things?" Moose asked, he and Andie were just chilling by themselves as everyone else was watching a youtube video that Monster found the other day.
Andie sighed, and then shrugged, "I don't know…you know…sometimes I just feel that…he can get me to agree to just about anything just by giving me that smile of his…" Sami groaned, "…gosh I hate him for making me love him so much…"
Moose laughed at Andie's agony. His attention soon turned to Sami who was laughing it up with Kido as they watched whatever was on her laptop screen.
"So…" Andie started, "You and Sami seem to be hitting it off pretty well…"
Moose grinned, "Dude…you have no idea how FUNNY she is…like…"
"I don't want to hear it…whatever it is…I'm sure it's funny…to you two…" Andie laughed as she looked at Sami who was trying desperately understanding what Kido was saying. Andie smiled.
"Yeah, well…last night…" Moose started but was momentarily stopped by Andie.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa…last night?" Andie inquired, she turned her body all the way towards him and waited expectantly.
Moose laughed nervously, "Yeah…uh…I took her out for a pre birthday dinner…no big deal really…"
"OH MY GOSH, MOOSE!" Andie slapped Moose on the arm excitedly.
"OW!" Moose winced in pain, it actually did hurt.
"You SO like her!" Andie whispered excitedly, "I knew it! I knew it! I knew it!"
"No…no…" Moose reasoned, "Look…we're friends…and I'm totally…and completely head over heels for Sophie…I would never do that to her…"
Andie groaned, "Oh…my…gosh….seriously? Look, we're not getting into this…you like Sami…"
"No" Moose denied once more as he looked at Sami. He watched as she nodded at what Kido was saying. Sami caught Moose's eye and shook her head 'No' but Kido didn't notice and kept on saying whatever she was saying. Moose grinned…at times like these he couldn't help but notice how cute she was.
"Come on…you can't very well say you're not attracted to the girl…" Andie whispered, "Serously…"
Moose couldn't deny it; he really couldn't even if he wanted to. He felt comfortable around Sami and she was the farthest thing from ugly.
"She's cute…" Moose choked out, and the he remembered last night. How she made him feel when they danced, the closeness, "…and…oh my gosh…have you seen her eyes…"
"…you like her…" Andie whispered, there was a full out smile on her face, but Moose shook his head. "…oh come on…you noticed her eyes…"
Moose rolled his eyes and sighed, "…we were dancing, she had on eye lash…I got it…noticed her eyes…oh for crying out loud they're brown with gold and green specs….how can I not notice?"
Andie sighed and looked over at Chase who was laughing with Cable. She shook her head and left it at that, she was tired to think about it any further.

"You're still going to Sami's party, right?" Andie asked as she and Chase were driving. Chase was getting ready to drop Andie off at her place so that she could change for the party. Chase nodded.
"Of course…wouldn't want to miss Sami's coming of age party" Chase grinned as he turned a corner. "What's this about a change in dress?"
"Moose's last minute idea…you know he's lucky that I love him and that I actually approve of Sami" Andie laughed.
Chase turned towards Andie, "Moose like Sami?"
"Well, he doesn't know it yet…but yes…" Andie grinned, Chase laughed and shook his head.
Chase felt his phone vibrate and he answered it quickly, "Yo…"
"Hey, Chase, it's Sophie…"
Chase nearly swerved off the road which definitely caught Andies attention.
"What is it?" Andie asked as the shock on Chase's face remained.
"S-Sophie…hi….uhm," Chase stumbled, Andie's eyes widened as Chase continued to talk, "…uh…h-how is L.A.?"
"…it's great…uhm…so…how's Andie?" Sophie seemed nervous, it definitely showed. She wanted something, Chase could tell. After all…he dated her all through sophomore and half of junior year.
"What do you want Sophie?" Chase asked the greetings were done with. He wanted to know what she wanted. His voice came off a bit harsh, but he wanted answers.
"Oh! Uhm…" Sophie stuttered that had definitely caught her off guard, "H-how is uhm, Moose?"
"Shouldn't you know? He's been calling and texting since you've left…figured you had a heart and actually replied…" Chase responded harshly.
Andie was watching Chase carefully and curiously. Obviously they were talking about Moose, and Andie wanted in. She wanted nothing more than to yell at Sophie, yell at her for putting best friend in such a rut.
"…see…that's what I wanted to talk about…his texts…are…" Sophie started, "I-I didn't…want…to…lead him on but-"
Chase laughed, which Andie took notice of.
"Oh, you didn't mean to? Well, I guess it was so slippery that night….that you accidentally slipped let your mouth fall on to his that night?" Chase laughed, "Oh…I'm glad that's all straightened out then…"
Andie's eyes widened and she really wanted to know what was going on, on the other end of the phone.
The line was silent for a while, "Look…I just need you…to tell him that I'm sorry things didn't work out…"
"Sorry?" Chase asked, "Right, well…uh…happy for Sophie, you know that your dreams are coming true…but uhm, you're not so famous that I'm willing to handle your dirty work Ms. Donovan…so if you want a message delivered…I suggest you do it yourself…"
Chase waited for a moment, and when Sophie didn't say anything…he hung up.
"I hate her…." Andie said plainly, "Ugh…how could she just…that self centered….ughhhhhhh!"
Chase just continued to drive. He wasn't surprised, he really wasn't. Same old Sophie…she looks out for herself…only for herself…and if you get in her way…oh well.

Sami smoothed down the dress she was wearing. Missy had dropped her self and the dress off about 3 hours after rehearsal was done and Sami was now staring at her self in her mirror.
"You look….adorable!" Missy gushed as she peered over Sami's shoulder and into the mirror. "If only you had…"
"No" Sami said simply as she turned to the side to examine her profile. Missy huffed.
"They're not even that high! I don't see why-"
"Missy…no heels, no…not at all…I refuse…" Sami walked over to her bed and pulled out a pair of black ballet flats from under her bed. She never really wore them, she preferred sneakers, but they were a lot better than heels and they looked brand new. "Done"
Missy gave Sami the once over and then shook her head, "Nope…hair…"
Sami groaned, "Missyyyyyyy…."
"Nope…you won't wear heels…I get to do your hair…sit…." Missy brought over Sami's computer chair, and Sami obliged with a pout on her face.
"…I will give you one thing…this is a gorgeous dress…" Sami commented and Missy ran a brush through her long hair, "I really like the colors…"
"I thought you might like it…" Missy grinned as she got to work.
--
"Ok…you just stay here, and wait for your escort…" Missy instructed as they were inside her house. Sami looked around and took everything in. Her house wasn't small, but it was very congested. There were family pictures EVERYWHERE and Sami wondered if Missy even KNEW half of these people.
"Escort?" Sami asked, "I told Moose I didn't want an escort"
"Yeah, he told me…but we both agreed that we went so far as to throw you a party without your consent…why not go the whole nine yards right?" Missy grinned, "Now wait here…he'll be here any minute…I assure you…you'll love him…he's a cutie…"
Sami didn't want a cutie. She could walk through door by her self. Then she realized that, that meant there would be a whole bunch of people waiting for her outside…they were going to stare at her in her dress, and her hair…at her…now she really didn't want to go…and an escort was going to make it worse…
Missy pulled Sami into her arms and hugged her. When she pulled away she ran her hands softly up and down her arms, "Usted parece hermoso...you're going to be amazing…ok?"
Sami nodded and smiled, she hugged Missy, "Thank you…I know I've been stubborn…but I really love you for doing this for me…"
"¡Ah por favor, este no es ningún trato grande!" Missy waved it off, which made Sami laugh. "…but you're welcome…"
Missy let go of Sami and opened the door, instantly the room was filled with Latin music that was pumping from outside.
"¡Venidos en ... van a hacer este! Let's party! Whoo!" Missy yelled as she started to move her hips to the music, her purple dress moving around her knees, she winked at Sami before she danced outside.
Sami took in a deep breath. She sat down on the couch in the living room and waited for her escort. She spotted a picture over the fireplace that contained people that she definitely recognized. It was the MSA crew…they were in the dance studio and they all sported insanely funny faces. Sami smiled as she took the picture down and stared at it…they seemed to be having an amazing time.
"You ready to get out there?" A voice asked from behind, Sami jumped a little but was quick enough that she caught the picture before it hit the floor. She put it back on the fireplace.
Moose laughed, "That was smoothe"
Sami blushed momentarily, but a sarcastic look overtook her features, "Psh…whatever…shouldn't you be out there?"
Moose chuckled, "Uh…well, I can't really go out there unless I have the birthday girl on my arm…."
Sami's eyes widened, "Nuh uh! You're my escort? Since when?"
"Since I couldn't find anyone else I approved of…not to mention someone who looked good in black and yellow..." Moose did a quick spin to show off his outfit. He wore a bright yellow dress shirt, which was left untucked with a black tie. He wore black, loose, dress skinnies with black dress shoes. He looked pretty sharp. "Oh yeah, what now?"
Sami shook her head and rolled her eyes, "So…this is a…black and yellow event?" she asked motioning to her dress.
Moose thought about it, "Hm…you'll see…shall we?"
Sami grinned and nodded her head she walked over to Moose who had his hand held out and took. Moose grasped her hand in his and unintentionally interlaced their fingers. Moose's heart jumped a little bit, and he waited for Sami's reaction and he hoped that she wasn't freaked out by it. Eventually, very slowly…Sami's fingers relaxed around his' and Moose let out a breath of relief.
"Let's do this" Moose smiled without looking at Sami. Which she was glad because her cheeks were filled with heat; she took a deep breath as Moose led her through the back door and into her pary.
"WHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" Someone hollered. A round of applause was sounded as Sami and Moose entered.
"Happy birthday Sami!"
"Whoooooo!!!!"
"YOU GO GIRL! YOU LOOK SO PRETTYYY!"
Sami laughed at the last one because there was no doubt in her mind that, that was Cable and Monster. Moose led her down the porch stairs and walked her out toward the dance floor in the middle of the yard. On the way…people she didn't even know greeted her and wished her a spicy sixteen.
"Ladies and gents…the birthday girl!" Cable announced from his spot behind the DJ table. Another around of applause and hollers were sounded.
Sami looked around…everything was covered in purple, red, black, and yellow.
"Oh my gosh…" Sami grinned, and everything was spinning. She realized that she and Moose were already on the dance floor and he was now spinning her. They swayed side to side as 'Moondance' Sami's new favorite song by Michael Buble was played. "You did all of this?"
"Well…I had Missy make some last minute changes…" Moose replied as he looked around at all of the decorations, "…she wasn't happy that she had to return your original dress... nor was she happy about returning all of the decorations, but….she did it…"
"I hope she didn't pay too much for this dress…" Sami looked down at her all yellow, with black floral designs dress, "…and I hope she didn't go through too much trouble…"
Moose laughed, "Sam, tonight's your night…try not to over think everything…and don't worry…Missy's cousin owns one of the small boutiques in town…she gets everything for free…and the decorations weren't that big of a deal…"
Sami laughed as well and nodded, she just started to hum along with Michael Buble.
"Who are all of these people?" Sami asked as she looked around at all of the guests that she most definitely did not recognize.
"Well…just a few friends who were looking for something to do on a Saturday night…some are from school…" Moose explained, "…can't have a party with like ten people…it just won't do…."
As the song ended, everyone clapped for her and Moose. The song changed and 'Boom Boom Pow' by Black Eyed Peas began to play and everyone was on the dance floor. Sami and Moose made their way over to the snack table where Andie and Chase greeted them.
"Hey!" Andie smiled, she was wearing a very pretty red sun dress. She hugged Sami, "You look gorgeous!"
"Thank you…so do you!" Sami grinned, "Hi Chase"
"Happy birthday Sami" Chase said as he gave her a hug.
"Don't you look sharp" Sami noted. Chase was dressed in black dress skinnies, with a lavender button up dress shirt that was untucked.
"Thank you" Chase laughed as he shook Moose's hand. "Nice spread bro"
"Ah…this was all Missy…" Moose grinned as he took a cup full of punch.
"Hey, hey, hey…birthday girl…" It was Monster. He had a grin on his face, arms out stretched as he came towards Sami who was about to willing accept his hug, but Moose intercepted and shook Monster's hand.
"Hey man, what's good, bro?" Moose grinned as he patted Monster's back. Monster shook his head at Moose with a knowing smirk.
"Happy birthday Sami" Cable was way too quick for Moose to intercept that one, and had Sami already wrapped up in his arms. "Oh…you look so pretty…"
"Thank you" Sami's voice muffled against his chest.
Moose watched as Cable's hand rubbed slow circled on Sami's lower back. Cable looked up and smirked at Moose and Monster. Moose glared as Cable gave Sami one more good squeeze before he let her go.
"You have fun at your party" Cable let his hands slowly trace down Sami's arms. Sami nodded and smiled completely oblivious to everything going on.
Cable walked past Monster and Moose and stuck his tongue out before he made his way back over to his DJ set up.
"Really…does anyone respect the 'dibs' rule?" Monster whispered as he walked over to where Cable was.
Andie and Chase looked at Moose with skeptical and curious looks. Moose rolled his eyes before he grabbed Sami's hand and led her else where. Sometimes he really could not stand his friends.
--
"Shawty got low…low…low…low..low..low..low..low…!" Missy, Andie, Sami, Kido, and Fly screamed as they danced together in the middle of the dance floor. There were so many people around them and the party was getting hotter! Sami really couldn't believe that all of this really was for her!
"Shake it Sami!" Missy cheered as Sami moved her hips to the music. She was having a blast! The thing she really couldn't understand…was that she felt so comfortable right now. She openly shaking her hips with her inspirations…it was insane!
"Whoooooo!" Andie cheered against the music as she too swung her hips to the flowing music.
"Get it girlll!!!" Fly laughed as she started to rock it back and forth.
"Get it…get it…get it…" Kido shouted in her heavy accent, which everyone laughed at because it sounded so random.
Sami threw her hands up in the air and continued to move her body the music. She wasn't even thinking anymore she was just having fun. She was being the yellow in the big black mystery that some people liked to call her life.
She got a donk! She got a donk! She got a donk!
"Whooooo!!!!" Everyone whooped as the song changed, and everyone started dancing again.
"Sami! Show us what you got babe, get it!" Missy and Andie whooped as Sami started waving in the middle of the dance floor. She shook her hips a little bit, and then went into some basic krumping making their own little group cheer.
"She got a donkkkkk!" Andie yelled as she cheered Sami on. Sami motioned for Andie to join her, and her and Andie krumped towards each other getting a big round of cheers from the rest of the girls.
"Whooo! Shake it!!!" Missy laughed as she swung her hips to the beat.
Eventually Andie and Sami stopped and started laughing. Andie pulled Sami in for a loose hug, before she turned around with her arm around Sam's shoulder and she yelled, "WHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
The guys soon joined the party and started dancing along with the girls. Cable shook his butt in the air making everyone laugh.
"Whoo! Cable's got a donk!" Missy laughed as she continued to dance along with everyone else. Sami laughed as she watched her friends goof off, and she really couldn't believe she could actually call them that…they were her friends…
"Hey" She heard someone say, and a hand on her forearm. Sami quickly turned her head to see Moose staring down at her…he smiled and guided her out of the hot crowd. He interlaced their fingers again, this time with more confidence since he figured it was ok. He led Sami over to the porch where it was quieter.
"Where's Sami?" Missy asked as she finally realized her friend was gone. She looked at Andie who was staring somewhere else.
"Where do you think?" Andie asked a smirk on her face as she and Missy stared at Sami and Moose on the porch holding hands. Missy raised her eyebrows.
"Well, damn…yo hasta la vista...get it Moose" Missy snapped, as Andie laughed and lightly pushed her best friend.
--
"So…are you enjoying your party?" Moose asked as he played with Sami's hand.
Sami's heart was pounding and she was finding it incredibly difficult to breathe. Sami stared at the side of Moose's face. His dark curly hair, his huge nose! Haha, but she thought it was adorable. She couldn't see his eyes, but she knew they were chocolate brown and she always thought they were penetrating. It wasn't until he looked up at her that she realized that he had asked her a question.
"Uhm, I'm sorry…what?" Sami asked as she blushed for making her self look like a oogling idiot.
Moose laughed, "How do you like your party so far?"
"Oh!" Sami laughed, "its…amazing…thank you…I can't believe you…did all of this…and…wow…it means SO much…"
"Well, it really is no problem at all" Moose smiled, "I'm just glad I could make your spicy sixteen…spicy…"
Sami laughed, "It's definitely…spicy…I really can't…I don't know what else…would make this…even more…awesome…I just…wow…"
"Really? Well, we still have one more thing for you…" Moose grinned as he gave Sami's hand a squeeze.
"Really, I don't need anything-"
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!"
Sami was cut off by a huge crowd of people singing. When she broke her stare from Moose…everyone who had just been dancing were now standing around a huge birthday cake!
"…HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SAMI! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!"
Sami just sat on the stoop in shock as she stared at the cake on the table. Moose couldn't help but smile at her reaction.
"Come on! Blow out your candles girl!" Andie laughed and motioned for Sami to come over.
"Hey, if you don't want this cake…that's fine…especially since it's my favorite….girl, shoot…déjeme decirle… I don't play…" Missy laughed along with everyone else. Sometimes Missy just spoke for her health.
Eventually Moose pulled her up him self and walked her over to the table with everyone else. She looked around at all of the people staring at her, her friends, and everyone else she did not know. Then she looked down at her cake which was decorated with purple and red floral designs. Sami counted all sixteen of the lit candles on her cake and she just stared at it. All of this really was for her…
"Make a wish Beautiful…" She heard Moose whisper as he squeezed her hand again. She felt her heart skip a beat, but she managed draw in a breath and blow out all sixteen candles.
"Whooo!" Everyone cheered once she was done.
"YESSS! Now let's get some cake…" Missy insisted as she picked up a knife cut into the half yellow, half chocolate cake. "Alright, alright…keep the line moving…Missy wants cake and I'm going to need all of ya'll to tell me what you want, get it, and get out…"
Hair was at the front of the line, and he was grinning, "Hm…I just don't know…I could get some yellow cake…but…I don't know the chocolate cake sounds good….I don't want both because then I'll get fat and you and I both know…that's just not good for the crew if I get fat, and-"
"Hair, I swear I will cut you boy…pick a cake…" Missy waved the knife in front of his face, her eyes threatening.
Hair laughed and threw his hands up in the air in defense, "Yellow…sheeshh…"
Hair got his cake and moved out of the way. He shot Moose and Sami a look that said 'Yikes!'
"Cable, hurry up…what do you want?" Missy asked impatiently.
"Both" Cable replied as he held out his plate for some cake.
Missy gave him a disgusted look, "Dang..fatty…"
"Hey, you're the one over here waving a knife in people's faces cause you want some dang cake" Cable retorted as he got his cake and walked away.
Missy pointed the knife after him, "Llámeme grasa, tirón, no necesito este... Quiero que mi pastel ... yendo a sentarse aquí me llame grasa…I should've cut him with this knife…mess with me and my cake…"
Sami and Moose looked at each other with wide eyes.
"So…uh…you want some cake?" Moose asked teasingly as he looked over at Missy.
"Smiles, I do not have time…get your cake and go!" Missy stated full attitude present.
"Uh…I'm good…" Sami laughed as she looked up at Moose who was smiling back at her.
"…you want to dance?" Moose asked. Sami nodded and he pulled her out to the dance floor.
'They way you love me' by Anthony Evans was playing. Sami looked over to see Cable with his head set on, eating both of his cakes. Sami shook her head smiling.
Moose pulled Sami close to him so that she could rest her head on his chest, and he rested his head on top of hers. They swayed side to side to the music, and they both felt completely content and very comfortable.
Andie, Chase, and Missy watched from a far. Andie was completely awe stricken, Chase was intrigued, and Missy…was…going to town on cake. But of course she was also awe stricken.
Moose sighed deeply, and Sami's head moved with his chest as it inflated and deflated. She laughed.
"What's so funny?" Moose asked quietly as they continued to dance along with all the other couples on the dance floor.
Sami laughed quietly again, "Nothing…"
"So…was tonight as 'horrible' as you thought it would be…?" Moose asked quietly as they swayed.
Sami smiled, "No…I never thought it would be…I just like making things difficult for you…"
Sami's head moved with Moose's chest as he laughed at what she had said.
"Oh, well, glad to know that you love to give me a hard time…" Moose laughed.
"Gosh…this still doesn't even feel real…" Sami commented as she thought about everything that has happened to her since she moved to Baltimore.
"Mmm…what do you mean?" Moose asked his face scrunched up in confusion.
"I mean…being here…with you guys…it's just…" Sami sighed, "…I came to Baltimore hoping to at least get to see you guys perform…live…you know? And, here I am…hanging out with you guys…you guys accepting me, letting me into your crew….throwing me a party….even you and me chilling like we do…dude, this is wild…"
Sami felt the vibration of Moose's laughter as they continued to dance.
"Sometimes Sami…it's like you don't even see yourself…" Moose laughed.
"What do you mean?" Sami asked curiously.
"Gosh, you've got to be the chillest chick in Baltimore…you're easy to be around…you're fun to be around… you're funny… you've got mad talent and skill…there's no reason why anyone wouldn't want to be around you…." Moose explained, "Now us…we're loud, obnoxious…and we make people move their seats away from us in restaurants…we're lucky that you even agreed to hang out with us…"
"Really?" Sami asked, that was so completely heart warming. She wanted to cry, but she didn't.
"Yeah, I mean…with out you…I'd be bored to death…waiting for something to do until MSA rehearsals started…" Moose laughed, "…and we'd probably be sulking right now…worrying our heads off about the stupid BAA crew…you're like our mini savior Sami…"
Sami smiled to her self. She saved the MSA crew. She didn't know what else to feel except pure joy.
--
For the next half hour, Moose and Sami slow danced to every song. They question why every song was a slow song, because they really didn't care. They were just enjoying the moment, and come to think of it…I don't think they even realized that songs were even changing.
"Missy….I'm tired of playing slow songs…and everyone's left already….why are we even still here?" Cable complained. Missy and Andie were staring at Sami and Moose as they slow danced.
"Shut up Cable!" Andie whisper yelled, not once taking her eyes off of the couple.
"Gosh, I know right? So freaking annoying…bolso de ducha, call me fat…" Missy mumbled under her breath as Cable changed the song.
'I'll never break your heart' by Sylvia started to play and Moose and Sophie were basically just moving side now. There was no swaying. Just moving side to side.
Sami yawned, which made the rumbling of laughter in Moose's chest go off again.
"Sleepy?" Moose chuckled.
Smi shook her head, "No…." She yawned again as they continued to dance.
Moose couldn't help but think about how incredibly cute she was right now.
They continued to dance until Moose felt Sami stop moving, he pulled away slightly and found Sami sleeping. He laughed quietly before gently waking her up.
"Hey…let's get you home…" Moose laughed. Sami stirred a little and nodded her head. Moose guided Sami off of the dance floor and looked at the rest of the crew, "Someone really needs to go to bed…"
Sami could barely keep her eyes open, and she wasn't even listening to what Moose was saying at this point. It had to be like 3:00 in the morning by now. She wasn't coherent at all, and the next thing she knew she was in Chase's car, in the back seat with Moose. His arm was around her and she was sound asleep on his chest.
The car ride to Sami's house was quiet. Mostly because Chase and Andie didn't want to say anything just in case Sami really was awake.
Moose lightly stroked Sami's long hair as they drove her home. Once they arrived at her house, he gently shook her.
Moose spoke into Sami's hair and whispered softly, "Hey…Beautiful…wake up…."
Sami stirred a little, and sighed deeply which made Moose laugh because she really did look adorable when she was sleepy.
"Hey…come on…you're home…" Moose whispered. Chase got out and opened the back door and helped Moose get Sami out. "Thanks man…"
Moose walked Sami up to her porch, and Chase and Andie watched curiously as Moose gave Sami a long hug and waited until she was inside her house. Then he jogged back to the car, and jumped back into the back seat.
"Hey guys…thanks for driving Sami home…great turn out, huh?" Moose asked cheerfully as he re buckled himself.
Chase pulled away from Sami's house and started up the street and towards Moose's house.
"Moose…." Andie sighed, she shook her head, "You…so…like her…"
"What?" Moose asked, "Please, that's ridiculous!"
"Dude, you were the only ones on the dance floor…forty five minutes after the party ended!" Chase exclaimed he looked at Moose through his rearview mirror.
"Oh my gosh…we like to dance…so what?" Moose asked as he looked out of Chase's tinted windows.
Andie groaned, "Oh my gosh…you're like…oblivious…to everything…it's insane!"
"No I am not!" Moose defended himself from the backseat, "Besides…I still have Sophie…"
Chase drew in a deep breath and looked at Andie who just shook her head and sighed. Chase decided to ignore that last part.
"Dude, you're defensive…protective…and possessive…" Chase added.
"Oh, not to mention you won't shut up about her!" Andie threw in.
"Oh my gosh! What are you talking about? Where the heck is this coming from?" Moose exclaimed he was utterly confused about everything that they were throwing at him.
"We were seriously talking about how Sarah was telling me that the economy was failing…and some how we ended up discussing Sami and her mom in New York City!" Andie exclaimed.
"Ok, in my defense…when you said failing it reminded me of when Sami told me that her and her mom was there to see the empire state building falling…" Moose explained his situation.
"oh my gosh…" Andie sighed in frustration.
"Oh and how am I…all of those things that Chase said?" Moose asked.
"Dude, you won't leave her alone for two seconds!" Chase exclaimed, "You're like a freaking puppy that will not get off her leg!"
"OHHH COME ONNNN!" Moose exclaimed, "You've GOT to be KIDDING me!"
"No, I'm not…seriously, can't give the girl like a minute to freaking breathe?" Chase explained.
"Have you seen the way the guys look at her? I mean really, I have to be there to keep them off her!" Moose defended his case once again.
"Which brings us to the protective part" Chase commented as he turned a corner.
"Yeah, she can have other guy friends too you know…" Andie said as she looked out of her own window.
"Ok, well…have you really seen the way Cable, Hair, and Monster look at her? They're seniors! They don't need to be looking at her….though Monster did date that freshman last year…but then again…she was the only one who didn't have bend down just to be able to see eye to eye with him…am I right? Give me some!" Moose held his hand out toward Chase who completely ignored and declined his hand. Moose silently reclined back in his seat.
"Ok and what about Smiles? Yesterday, all he was doing was talking to Sami about her mixes…one second I see you on the other side of the studio, and two seconds later you're like right next to her…arm around her…" Andie stated.
"Ok, first off…Smiles needs to watch where the heck his hands go…" Moose mumbled under his breath. Chase pulled up to Moose's house.
"Oh my gosh, he was typing something on her laptop and his hand just happened to graze her hand!" Andie exclaimed.
"Yeah, well…he was a bit too close to her chest, I mean really….you don't have to lean over her…ask her to move!" Moose ranted out loud.
"OH MY GOSH!" Andie exclaimed, "Moose, out of the car! Freaking psycho in denial…"
Moose rolled his eyes and got out of the car. "Night Andie…night Chase…" Moose smiled with fake niceness coloring his voice.
"Night Moose" Andie copied his tone. Moose shut the door and walked up toward his door step.
Chase laughed as he pulled away from Moose's house.
"That boy…." Andie slumped further into her seat and covered her forehead with her hand and sighed. Chase shook his head and chuckled as he headed toward Andie's house.
