Wow, 13 chapters! I never thought that this story would last this long! So this one takes place directly after chapter 11, hope you like it, enjoy:D ( Parts of it are sort of lame, so bare with me)
" Wow that was interesting" Archie said as he pulled away from Theresa, looking around nervously.
" Do you think it worked?" Theresa asked hesitantly.
" I have a feeling it did"
" Why?" Theresa asked, as she followed Archie's gaze, turning around and coming face to face with a very confused Jay.
" Theresa?" he questioned, a serious look across his face.
" Uh, hey Jay, how you feeling?"
" Um, really confused. What just happened?"
" What do you mean?" Theresa responded, trying to sound innocent.
" I'm pretty sure you know what I mean."
" Oh that, it's kinda a long story. Wait where's Atlanta?" Theresa asked as she looked around trying to find her. Thankful that she was able to change the direction of the conversation. She wasn't in the mood for explaining things.
" She sorta ran off once she saw you guys…" Jay responded still trying to figure out the whole situation.
" I'll go find her!" Archie instantly volunteered as he ran off before anyone could stop him
" I gotta go. I've got a major headache" Jay responded as he rubbed his temples.
" I should probably go too. There are some things I've gotta work out" Theresa added,
" You coming Odie?" Theresa said as she turned towards him.
" No, I think Sarah and I are going to go find Archie, I have a feeling he's gonna need some help"
" You're probably right. Atlanta's a handful." Theresa stopped and turned around, " And Odie, be carefull" she said as she shot him a knowing look.
" Don't worry I will"
Back at the Brownstone, Jay sat at his desk, trying to figure out why things had gone so wrong. He was conflicted. Why had he told Theresa that he only wanted to be friends? He certainly knew that he liked her way more than that. It had taken all his will power not to kill Archie when he saw him kissing her. He was supposed to be the fearless leader, yet he couldn't even work up the courage to tell Theresa he loved her. Why was he such a fool? His thoughts were interrupted as he heard a knock on his door.
" Come in"
" Hey, um, can I talk to you about something" Theresa asked as she stepped inside his room.
" Wait, can I go first?" Jay responded.
" Sure"
"I've been thinking, well a lot, about us…"
" Okay…"
" And I , I", Jay paused and looked longingly at Theresa. He couldn't control himself anymore and walked up to her, pulling her close to him, kissing her passionately. Kissing him back, Theresa realized. This was where she belonged, in Jay's arms, no one else's. They were a perfect match and no one could break them apart, not even Cronus.
" So…does this mean we're more than just friends?" Theresa questioned, eyes glittering as she gazed at Jay. Jay chuckled and place his lips against Theresa's once more.
" I'll take that as a yes" she happily replied as she pulled away, " hey, wanna go to the movies?" she asked, the idea suddenly popping into her head.
" Which movie?"
" I don't know if that really matters…" The sly redhead replied before walking away seductively, swinging her hips. Jay watched, captivated by her beauty, before chasing after her. Yes, he thought, fools could have their good days too.
"Atlanta, wait up!" Archie called into the darkness towards the figure running in the distance.
" Why should I?" The figure shouted back.
" Because, I love you" Archie managed to stutter as he stopped to catch his breath. Atlanta stopped and stood motionless.
" Atlanta?" Archie called out.
" Archie…I" she muttered.
" You what?"
" I don't get you Archie. One minute you're swapping spit with Theresa and the next you're telling me you love me. What the hell is your problem?"
" I only did that to get you back. Back to loving me and being the bad ass chick that I fell in love with"
" You know what else is bad ass?" Atlanta questioned as she moved towards Archie,
" This", she said as she kicked him in the groin and ran off. Archie growled with pain. Hearing laughter, Archie stood up and looked around.
" Odie, it's not funny" he called out.
" How'd you know it was me?" Odie questioned as he appeared with Sarah at his side.
" That thing" Archie said as he pointed at Odie's hair, " I can even see it in the dark"
" Funny, so where did Atlanta go? " Odie asked concern laced in his voice.
" She ran off again"
" Then go chase her lover boy!" Odie said as he patted Archie on the back. As Archie ran off, Odie turned to Sarah.
" I know who you are, Eudora"
" How?"
" I'm a genius, you think I can't figure out how to make a mind reading device?"
" Oh, so I guess you know what I did?"
" Yah, what are you gonna do now? Now that I kinda ruined your plans?"
" I don't know. I guess I have to leave. I think I made a big mistake, I'm sorry, I guess. And Cronus will probably be after me now…"
" You don't have to run from Cronus. I can explain everything to the others, they'll understand"
" Odie, I can't let you do that. I have to leave. There's no other option." Sarah delicately reached up and grabbed the flower from her hair, handing it to Odie, before disappearing into the shadows once more.
