But i promise the next chapter will be more exciting, im already working on it.Oh and thanks DaBiscuit and Monsterchild for your reviews, i like reviews :)Anyways I'll quit talking now so you can get onto the story...

Sam's POV

I watched Otto sit and pout at his kitchen table. He had called about 8:30 this morning to tell me his problems with Reggie. I was guessing Hailey and Ryan were still asleep since it was now only 9:30 am.

"Dude, I'm bored…" Otto said staring at the wall in front of him. Otto slowly sat up, "Let's go to the Pier…"

I silently got up and followed Otto out to his truck.

"Reg better come back tonight." Otto said as he got in.

"Well it kinda is her choice Otto." I said.

Otto glared at me before starting the truck, "She doesn't need to be hanging out with Lars, and Twist is acting weird lately, so she doesn't need to hang out with him either." I shrugged my shoulders as Otto pulled out of the driveway. "I mean just cause she's older doesn't mean she can hang out with just anyone…" Otto looked at me as if waiting for a reply.

"Maybe she sees something in them that you don't." I commented, hoping I wouldn't have to regret saying that.

"What! What could she possibly see in Lars!" Otto asked angrily. "Sammy, think who we're talking about, this guy used to beat us up for fun."

"But he's changed now." I replied.

"Yeah until he gets what he wants. He's just gonna hurt my sister. Then he's gonna be sorry for ever talking to her." Otto stated.

"Otto…" I started.

"That's my sister Sam, she can't just date anyone. It has to be someone who will be good to her and not use her." Otto kept going.

"Otto." I said.

"What Sam?" Otto finally asked.

I sighed, "Nothing Otto… Nothing…"

Otto sighed and stayed silent. We pulled up to the Pier and parked. As we both walked around the truck a certain girl stood out in the crowd.

"Hey isn't that Danielle Carlson?" Otto asked.

"Yeah." I replied keeping my eyes on her as I felt my face become hot.

Otto got a mischievous grin on his face, "Why don't you go talk to her?" He asked elbowing me in the side.

"Ow, stop." I said pushing his arm away. "She'll never see anything in me."

"Wanna bet?" Otto asked.

"She won't, don't try to get my hopes up." I replied.

"We'll see." Otto started walking towards Danielle at a fast pace.

"Otto… Otto. Otto wait!" I ran to catch up with him.

Otto's POV

"Hey Danielle!" I said walking up to her. I glanced back to see Sam had slowed down alittle, he was trying to walk up casually now.

The short girl turned around looking alittle startled. "Um, hi?" She replied, I noticed her look behind me at Sam and her eyes lit up a little.

Sam walked up beside me, I noticed him taking Danielle in. I couldn't blame him really, I mean she looked good. "You remember me right? Otto Rocket, and my friend Sam Dullard."

Danielle smiled sweetly, "Yeah I know Sam." She hesitated. "And… You're the guy who always has his skateboard with him right? Yeah, and you hang out with Twister Rodriguez. Yes I remember you."

I frowned alittle, I wasn't in the mood to be remembered as the guy who hung out with Twister. "So Danielle… me and Sam here were about to go get something to eat, wanna come with us?" I asked.

Danielle's eyes went straight to Sam, then back to me. She smiled, "Sure."

"Good." I smiled.

We started to walk through the crowd. Danielle shifted so that she could walk next to Sam. I elbowed Sam again, "Talk to her!" I said quietly.

"What?" Danielle looked over.

"Uh…" I coughed. "I think I'm getting sick." I coughed again.

"Oh…" She replied.

"So where are you planning on going to college?" Sam asked Danielle.

I rolled my eyes, what a nerd…

"Oh, I'm not sure. There's so much out there." Danielle replied. "I'm thinking about getting a degree and teaching, I would love to do that. I just can't decide what I want to teach."

Maybe Danielle wasn't so bad for Sam after all. She seemed kinda nerdy too. I stayed in my own thoughts for the next few minutes until I heard Danielle's voice suddenly get louder.

"Josh!" Danielle's face lit up. I quickly looked at Sam who looked a bit pale. Danielle ran over to a guy with light brown hair and blue eyes, she gave him a big hug and he returned it.

"You ok Sammy?" I asked a bit concerned.

Sam looked at me, he swallowed, "Of course… I'm fine." He still looked pale and uneasy though.

Danielle took the guy, Josh, by the wrist and dragged him over. "Sam, Otto, this is my brother Josh." Suddenly Sam's color started coming back to his face. "I hardly get to see him since he lives on the other side of town!" She grinned up at Josh. "This is Otto and this is Sam…" Danielle's voice got quiet as she looked at Sam.

"Oh, Sam. I've heard of you." Josh said teasingly.

"Joshua! Be quiet!" Danielle said turning red as she smacked her brother on the arm.

Josh looked at me, "Hey you look like a pretty cool kid, why don't you come try out that new ride they have with me?" Josh asked winking.

I quickly caught on and agreed. "Alright. Sam, why don't you take Danielle and get something to eat with her?"

Sam looked at Danielle who grinned at him, "Ok, are you ready Danielle?"

Danielle smiled wide, "Sure, lets go!" With that the two walked off into the crowd.

I turned back to Josh who looked at me, "She's head over heels…"

"He's wheels over board…" I said.

Josh looked at me, "Yeah… You're a pretty cool kid…" He said looking me over.

"Thanks, your not so bad yourself." I replied.

Lars POV

"Maybe Ray wouldn't care if I went and packed my stuff now and just stayed here tonight again." Reggie said as she sat on my couch.

"Reg, how are you gonna spend all week with Otto if you can't even face him in your own house?" Twister asked looking up from his skateboard he was working on in a chair not far from her.

"Who said I have to spend all week around Otto? There's going to be plenty of other people around." Reggie replied.

"Reg." Twister said giving Reggie a commanding look.

"Well… She could just spend all her time with me." I added grinning.

Twister rolled his eyes, "Gross, that was not something I wanted to think about."

"Twister!" Reggie cried throwing a pillow at his head.

Twister dodged the pillow and grinned, "What?" Reggie rolled her eyes at him.

"Alright Twist enough." I went around the couch and sat next to Reggie.

"Yeah just don't get all mushy while I'm around." Twister replied as he finished tightening a screw on his board. With that he got up and walked out.

I turned to Reggie and smiled, she was so beautiful. "Mushy? Me? With you? Never." I laughed and then kissed her as she kissed me back.

Reggie snuggled up against me, "I think I could stay here all day."

"Nobody says you have to leave babe." I replied running a hand over her hair.

"I hope not…" Reggie said softly.
