Okay, not many people reviewed on the last chapter… I get it that I was gone for awhile on vacation, but please don't give up on me! I haven't abandoned this story yet, I promise. Just a lot of drama has been going on and I'm also training for track season, insert a bunch of other stuff you probably don't care about, and yeah… a LOT has been thrown on my plate! I'm really sorry the story's lagging:( School's fast approaching as well, and I'm going to be swamped in homework and practice and acting lessons (long story) so just hang in there with me please! But to the people who DID review or are still reading my story, thank you so much! It really means a lot(:

And to numbah435spiritsong: I know I got the ages mixed up quite a lot, but I was just going off my viewpoint of the movie. And I realized some of the ages were wrong, but it just fit better for the story! Sorry for not getting them all correct!

Lisa was frozen at her older sister's door, her hand balled into a fist poised right next to the chipped wood. One knock and all her answered were revealed. So what was stopping her? Nerves. Her heart was racing and her hands were clammy, and she felt helpless, as if someone was choking her. She hated it. Usually it wasn't her feeling like this, and it was her sister instead. But their roles were flipped. Lisa was always the one to give advice, not ask for it! But here she was in front of Becky's door in the middle of the night, her hand millimeters from the wood, mind whirling, frozen in place. Of all her sisters, she decided Becky would be most accepting and the most knowledgeable when it came to this love stuff. Plus they were only a couple years apart, so it made more sense. And anyways, she was closest to Becky. But what was she doing? Just knock already, she hissed to herself. Why did Jake have such an effect on her? With a final sigh, she made her decision and knocked on the door before she could change her mind.

A couple seconds later, she heard rustling on the other side and a muffled "wha-? from her sister before footsteps and then the door swung open and revealed Becky, eyes bleary and in a long night shirt.

"Lisa?" She asked, obviously confused, her voice raspy from the sleep. This wasn't normal, so Lisa wasn't shocked with the hint of surprise in her voice. "What are you doing?"

Lisa shuffled on the wooden flooring, unable to come up with an explanation. It was as if the words were frozen in her mouth and she couldn't breathe. She couldn't just be like "Oh you know, the usual, wide awake thinking about Jake and whether or not I should ask him out so he can fall in love with me." Lisa wasn't that kind of girl. It was all about school for her. Good grades and scholarships were constantly on her mind, and the pressure from her dad was what fueled her on. She didn't do boys or relationships or anything like that. Heck, she hadn't even had a boyfriend yet. But that didn't bother her; she had schoolwork to worry about.

Becky sighed, sensing she wasn't going to get a response and motioned for her sister to enter. "Come in. But this better be good, waking me up at-" she checking her watch. "2:19 in the morning."

Lisa walked in and sat down on Becky's bed. The door closed with a soft 'click' and Lisa knew there was no going back. Becky moved across the room, kicking a sundress lying messily on the floor out of the way and sat down next to Lisa. She motioned with her hands to explain.

"I think I'm in love with Jake Baker." Lisa blurted out, eyes wide and words rushed. There, she had said it. It was out and she couldn't take it back. Becky's eyes were just as wide as hers and her mouth was open in a little 'o' shape. She closed her mouth, and then opened it again as if to say something, but closing it again, like a fish. Lisa prayed she made the right decision. Maybe she was crazy, and that this was just a phase. That she didn't really like Jake, but instead only thought she did. But she knew that wasn't true. She liked Jake and that was that.

Becky finally opened her mouth again. "Wow," her voice shaky and confused. Lisa felt as if she did something wrong by the sound of Becky's voice, as if liking the boy was a crime. "I-I didn't know… have you, you know, told him yet?"

Lisa shook her head remorsefully. "No. I don't know whether or not he likes me back."

Becky frowned and looked out the window, looking troubled. Lisa watched her sister, waiting for the answer she so badly wanted.

Becky, sensing her sister was watching, turned to her and smiled a really big, almost fake smile. "That's wonderful. I'm glad you found someone to like."

Lisa perked up with her words, her heart soaring and relief flooding through her. So she wasn't crazy after all! She liked a boy and that was that! She felt dizzy and free and giddy all at the same time. "Thank you, Becky! Thank you so much, really. I was so worried that I was sounding crazy and I was just thinking about every single thing that could go wrong and I just panicked and-"

Becky forced a quiet laugh to shut Lisa up. "Congratulations, you like Jake. That's great! Wonderful." She said rather too cheerily to the early hour in the morning. "Are you going to tell him?"

Lisa bit her lip nervously. That was the question that ran through her head the whole evening, the only that kept her away. "I don't know. I honestly don't. Should I tell him? Ask him out on, like, a date or something? He has absolutely no idea, I'm sure of it."

Becky nodded, understanding. But still, Lisa could see something in the back of her eyes, twinkling and ever so present, although hidden. She didn't know what it was, but Becky was adamant on keeping it hidden away from Lisa at all costs. Her eyes were guarded and her mouth was formed into a big grin. It was confusing, but Lisa shrugged it off. It was 2am, of course her sister would be acting different. The poor girl only got a couple hours of sleep.

"So what do you think?" Lisa asked hopefully. Becky paused, her smile quickly diminishing and she took a deep breath. In, and out.

"I think you should ask him out." Becky said finally, flashing her sister a glance that held… envy? Disappointment? Lisa didn't know, but it was gone in a flash and she didn't care; her stomach was doing flips and somersaults! It was decided. She would ask Jake out.

"Oh, you think so? I hope he says yes, I really do want to go out with him. Oh, and if he says yes what will I wear? And how will I ask him? Becky, you'll have to plan everything with me!" Lisa gushed nonstop, feeling as if a weight was lifted off her chest and she could finally breathe again. She was too busy talking that she didn't notice her sister looking out the window, hurt and confusion clear on her features. And that night, Lisa fell asleep soundly for the first time in a quite awhile, her heart still thrumming happily. She was buzzing. She was going to ask Jake out, no matter what happened after.

There you go! It was extremely difficult writing both of the girl's opinions in just Lisa's POV, but I really wanted to show how uncomfortable Becky was in this situation. So I hope I did well enough! You can already guess how confused Becky must be. She has a boyfriend but is starting to grow fond of Jake. But that was the major side plot I wanted to bring out. And it only gets more dramatic from here! And I'm just getting started, I have a whole long summary of the whole entire story from beginning to end, and I know exactly what's going to happen. Tell me what you all think about this plot, do you like it? I really hope so, because it's a lot of fun to write. Review please(:
