Chapter 14

Logan's POV

"Hey guy's how's it going?" I came to a standstill. That voice. What was it doing here? Everyone that was facing the door already knew who it was. The rest of us, Deuce, Dina, Rocky, and I, had to turn around to see the person to which the voice belonged to.

Unfortunately, I was correct. He stood there with a smile on his face. His hands were in his pockets. I felt the beast inside of me release itself. I can't stand this guy.

"Trevor, what are you doing here?" Tinka asked with disgust. He looked confused at her question. Then his eyes traveled to Rocky. It wasn't until then did I notice that she wasn't as shocked as the rest of us.

"I heard this was the best pizza place in town. I came to check it out." He tried to joke but only managed to get on my nerves. He knew exactly what she meant.

"She means, what are you doing in Chicago jackass." CeCe urged on. For once, I was pleased with the red head.

"Well this is a free country." His slick comments were only making me angrier and angrier. He thinks he can just come here anytime he feels like it. Well he's in my city now.

He continued talking but he had a more serious and slightly confused tone. "I don't know why you guys are acting like this is big news, didn't Rocky tell you?" All eyes fell on Rocky, including my deadly ones.

"What's he talking about?" Ty asked the question that was hanging in the air. Rocky had a look of realization on her face. She whispered something but it was mainly to herself. We all heard her though. "How could I forget?"

We turned back to Trevor. It was obvious that Rocky wasn't gonna spill anything. I hated secrets, mainly ones that were kept from me. But I especially hated the ones that were between Rocky and him.

"If Rocky doesn't want you all to know, I don't think I should say anything." FUCK HIM! (Sorry for the language but Logan REALLY doesn't like Trevor) Now he feels like he should keep her business a secret? So all of a sudden he actually cares about how she feels?

"Answer the question." Ty demanded.

"That day I couldn't make it to laser tag with you guys, as you all know, I had to talk to my parents. My dad's a producer and he said he would be doing a new show in Chicago. He asked me if I wanted to go with him until the show was done. At the time I was with Rocky and I wanted to be with her for as long as I could so I told him yes. I told her about it that night she came over. I'm supposed to start at John Hughes next week. It was too late to change my mind so here I am. " He clapped his hands indicating he was done.

So Rocky knew about this and it didn't cross her mind once to tell us about it? A warning or a heads up would've been nice. Now he's going to our school!

"So your dad is the new producer?" CeCe asked with way too much excitement. We all glared at her.

"What, can't a girl dream of becoming famous?" She's so conceited and only thinks about herself. I wonder why I don't like her.

"It was nice seeing you guys again. I hope we can all put everything behind us." That was something that would never happen. I will NEVER forgive him for what he did to Rocky. Ever.


It was Friday and I told Emma I would wait for her outside after school. We were going to study at her house. I didn't want to go to my place for two reasons. 1) CeCe would make sure she embarrassed me and not give us time to get any work done. 2) I didn't want any chances of running into Rocky while I was there.

I saw Emma walk out with a group of friends. She smiled when she saw me and waved her friends goodbye.

"Did I make you wait too long?" she questioned worryingly. "No, not at all. I just got here." She smiled again. Emma's a happy person. I need a happy person in my life right now.

Since I usually skateboard to school, we had to walk to her house. The good thing though is that Emma only lived a few blocks away. Another great thing about her is that she doesn't like silence so we talked and laughed the whole way there.

I found out that she loved SpongeBob and thought no matter how old she was she would never outgrow him. I thought that was cute. In a friendly way of course. Her favorite movie was Titanic. She cried at the ending every time. She didn't really have a favorite song. She enjoyed all different types of music. And she had one little brother who was twelve.

By the time we got to her place, a big grey two story house, I considered Emma as a new friend.

Her dad was still at work, her brother was still in school but her mom was home. We settled down in the living room.

"I was thinking we should do the plant cell. It's less complex." She stated. I agreed.

We both researched any questions we had and took notes. Her mom made us mini sandwiches and mixed fruit. They're very nice people.

"Emma I'm going to pick your brother up from school. I'll be back in half an hour." Her mom said.

"Okay." Emma replied not taking her eyes off her laptop. We were really getting into this project. About five minutes after her mom left, we finished with all the research. By this pace, we could finish this project in under a week.

"Now all we need are the materials. I don't think we should buy them. Mr. Roberts did say be creative." She said.

"So we should use everyday household items?" I asked. She smiled. "Exactly!"

She took a pin and started labeling all parts of the plant cell.

Cell wall-

Chloroplast-

Cell membrane-

Ribosome's-

Cytoplasm-

Vacuoles-

Golgi Bodies-

Lysosomes-

Nucleus-

Chromatin-

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)-

Mitochondria-

"These are just some of the main parts. We'll work with them." I nodded again in agreement.

"For the cell wall we could use a shoe box." I informed. "And we could use beads for the vacuole…" we each shared ideas of what we could use for each part. We had an idea for everything but the ER.

It started getting late so I told Emma I had to go home. We didn't finish but we got a lot done. She decided to walk me out.

"Thanks for taking the time to come over today." She smiled.

"It's okay. I'll just save cats and feed the world another day." I joked. She laughed. Her laugh reminded me of Rocky's. But it lacked the specialness hers has.

"Well I better get going." I said. She smiled but I think I saw a hint of sadness in her eyes. Just as I was about to leave, she leaned over and kissed me. On the cheek that is. Her face turned red automatically. She waved at me one last time and headed back inside in a hurry.

I just stood there. What just happened? I found myself feeling guilty. I just let another girl kiss me. Even if it was a cheek kiss, it's still a kiss. I know Rocky and I aren't on speaking terms; I still love her though and ONLY her. This didn't feel right.


I ended up at the front of my apartment not knowing how I got there. When I opened the door I saw Rocky and CeCe on the couch.

"Logan where were you? I'm supposed to go on a date with Gunther in half an hour but you never showed up to watch Flynn! I had to call Rocky for backup!"

I was still in a trance which meant fighting with CeCe was not on my mind right now. "Sorry. I'll watch him." I don't think she had time to argue either because she stormed off to her room cursing under her breath.

Rocky was watching TV not paying attention to us. This was my chance. I sat down next to her. She felt the shift of my weight as I sat down. She looked up and smiled. SHE SMILED AT ME! It was a genuine smile too. I sat quietly next to her and stared at the screen. I have no idea about what's going on.

"What are we watching?" I decided to ask.

"We? You want to watch Means Girls 2 with me?" she said this a bit hysterically. I would do anything if it was with her.

"Hey, I have a chick side to me too." She laughed making me smile. I haven't heard her laugh in a while. Her laugh is like a drug to me. I can never get enough of it.

"Okay then. I guess we can talk about how this remake is nowhere near as good as the first one. Sequels usually always suck." Again, I had no idea what she was talking about but I didn't want to end the conversation. So I winged it.

"Yeah I hate sequels. Why can't they keep things a one hit wonder? The original mean girls was classic but this one i-it's a big mess!" her eyebrows rose.

"You have no idea what I'm talking about do you?" "Not a clue." We both burst out laughing. I stopped laughing long before she did and watched her while admiring her beauty. When she realized that I'd stop her cheeks burnt bright red. It was the cutest thing ever. Not in a friendly way.

When the atmosphere around us quieted down, I broke the silence. "Are you okay with him coming to our school." I didn't have to say the name because she knew who I was reffering to. Her smile faded almost making me regret the question.

"Is anyone really okay with it?" She had a point. I know I wasn't. I hated the guy's guts.

She continued talking. "I guess I'll just have to be a big girl and deal with it." She said it jokingly but neither of us thought it was funny. Not when it had to do with that particular guy.

"If you need me I'll be there for you." It almost sounded like a whisper but she heard me. Our eyes met for the shortest second.

"I know. And you're a great friend for that." Okay…not exactly the answer I was looking for but I'll make the best of it. Take things one step at a time.

I almost asked why she didn't tell us about Trevor coming here but when I thought about it I decided not to urge it on. She probably just forgot. She had a lot of things going on so it wasn't really her fault.

CeCe walked out of her room in a dress.

"Okay Rocky, Lay it on me."She did a spin while Rocky examined her closely.

"To be honest I think…you look great!" she ran to hug her and they squealed. What an awkward moment to be a guy right now.

"Aren't you gonna ask for my opinion?" I smirked at her. She rolled her eyes.

"I would rather burn myself." She answered. I smiled. "Why don't you." She moved forward to attack me but the doorbell rang at the same time. "Saved by the bell." Rocky murmured after she turned to get it.
After Gunther took red away it was only me and Rocky.

"Wait, where's Flynn?" I asked.

"He's in bed. He had a hard day. I guess I'll get going to." She declared. I quickly jumped out of my seat.

"What why? Aren't we gonna finish the movie?" I may have sounded a bit too eager but I was desperate at the moment. She couldn't leave yet.

"I should get some sleep. I need me my 10 hours."

"It's Friday night. People don't go to sleep at 8 o'clock. They stay up and watch cheesy, girly, badly made sequels." She laughed at my little comment.

"You really want to watch this movie don't you?" Not really but that wasn't the answer I was going to give her.

"Yes, I love endings." She thought for a second then sighed. "I guess I can-" before she could finish I grabbed her hand, gently, and sat her down next to me.

Even though she only thought of us as friends for now. I didn't care. I was with the girl loved and that was all that mattered.


CeCe POV

This was my first official date with Gunther so I wanted to look nice. I wore my tight red dress with a cute black jacket. A pair of black lace heels and a few bracelets on my left arm.

We drove to Chez Ponte, an expensive restaurant in the uptown of Chicago. Having a rich boyfriend is nice.

He opened the door and we were lead to our seats. "I've never been here before." I told him.

He smiled. "I had a feeling." There were breadsticks on the table so I took one.

He watched me as I ate it.

"How was it?" he joked just as I took my last bite. "Divine." I answered sounding stuck up. I can't believe I was ever enemies with this guy.

We ordered, or should I say he ordered (I didn't understand the food on the menu), and waited. I wanted to ask him a question that's been begging me since we were in Florida.

"How did you know I liked you?" he didn't seem surprised by the question. Almost like he suspected I was gonna ask it.

"You're an open book CeCe. After years of aggravating you, I learned to read you. You started falling madly in love with me after our ride on the plane to Florida." I laughed.

"Really, madly in love?" he shrugged. "Hey, I'm hard to resist." Before, I would've found it very annoying but now, I realize he speaks the truth.

The lady came back with our food. I don't know how to pronounce what I ate but it was really good.

"You look cute when you chew." He said. I think I blushed. But I don't blush. He's bringing out a whole new side of me.


After dinner we went to the movies. I really wanted to see The Purge. Twelve hours to do any crime and it's legal. I hope they one day allow that. Little scooter would've been the first to go.

"That'll be $24.50." the cashier said. She looked weary and bored. Gunther paid for the movie. Our passes read that we were in room 14. He put his arm around me as we made our way to room 14.

"Hey CeCe. What are you doing here?" I turned at the sound of my name. Uh oh.

It was Frankie and Farah. My detention buddies. Yay.

I quickly slipped Gunther's arm off my shoulder and stepped away from him. I saw him looking confusingly at me but I didn't have time to explain.

"Frankie, Farah! Hey guys!" Why did we have to come here when they were here?

"I told you, I go by The Complication now." Frankie said.

"Why?"

"It's complicated." Farah rolled her eyes and turned to me.

"So are you here with…him?"

I saw Gunther look offended and that almost made me stop what I was about to say. Almost.

"Yeah but we're just waiting for the rest of the group to show up."

I felt a pair of hurt eyes burning through me but I pushed it away and kept my fake smile on for Frankie and Farah.

"Okay, see you around Ce." Frankie clicked his tongue pointing his index and thumb at me. As soon as they were out of earshot I turned back to Gunther.

"I'm sorry I couldn't let-"

"Let them think that you were here with me?"

He was angry and you could tell just by looking at him.

"I'm not ready to let everyone-"

"If you're embarrassed of me CeCe, I don't see the point of being in a relationship with you."

"No, no, no, that's not-"

"You know what forget it. Here give this to someone you actually want to be seen with." He handed me the tickets and walked out of the movie theatre.

I think I just got dumped.

OOOOHHHHH! CeCe, CeCe, CeCe, what are we gonna do with her. Tune in next time. The reality show is coming to town. Review!
