A Cool Fall-Chapter 5
Disclaimer: You know I don't own So Weird or the characters.
I only own myself and the comp. I'm sitting at, nothing else! So, please, don't sue me!!!!!!
A BIIIIIG thanks to all the people who posted! Thank you so much! If y'all hadn't given me reviews,
I wouldn't be a happy camper and wouldn't be writing this stuff!!! I'm sorry it takes so long to post, but
school takes up a lot of time. Karate takes up a lot of time. BSF takes up a lot of time. Music takes up
a lot of time! It's VERY hard to squeeze extra time for writing.
Anyway, I apologize for the writing taking so long, but within three weeks, I should be pumping out chapters much
faster and they'll be much better!
On Dancer and Prancer and all you other guys...

That day, Clu and Carey went to the Phillips house and met Jack and Fi out front. They all piled into the van and Jack drove them to the mall. They went to various department stores and stands. Finally, five hours and twenty shopping bags later, they were done. Fi accidentally knocked into an old woman, scattering her bags all over the ground. Clu worked quickly to pick them up while Fi tried to apologize to the old woman who was walking off. The woman walked out of sight and Fi was left sitting at the indoor water fountain. She looked like she was about to cry. Carey saw her and walked over to her.
"Hey Fi!"
She looked at him and said, "Oh. Hi Carey."
"What's up? Why ya cryin'?"
"I just mess everything up! I mean, when I came back, Annie left, and Jack doesn't have her with him now. I can't get the one person I like! Now, I knock some poor, old woman down! Geez, I'm such a screw-up!"
"Fi. Fi! Calm down! Number one, you don't mess EVERYTHING up! I DEFINITELY help!"
Through her tears, she laughed at the statement.
"Second, YOU didn't make Annie leave. Her parents did. Third, you need to cheer up. Maybe you can get him! You never know till you try! Hey, you've got a better chance than me!"
Fi cracked a weak smile and said, "Carey, you are SO corny!"
She pushed him in the shoulder. Fi lookes around the giant room. She saw Clu sitting in the distance. Was he TALKING to himself? NO! He was SINGING to himself! Now, THAT was comedy. She walked over to Clu and tapped him on the shoulder, breaking him out of his trance. "Uh-y-yeah? Oh. Hi Fi! What's up? Your ready to go?"
"Um," she looked strangely at him. "Sure, lemme just get Jack!"
She ran to Jack and told him that they should leave. "Okay sis! But what about the guys?"
"I dunno. They seem cool with it!"
"Okay. Let's go."
The group gathered up and went to the car. Jack fumbled with the keys and they all got in. Once they got back to the Phillips' house, they saw Molly sitting on a rocking chair out on the porch. She got up and said, "Where were you guys? I've been trying to call."
Jack was about to say something when Carey spoke up."Sorry Mrs. P! I decided to take them to the mall. I thought I put a note by the front door!"
She sighed and replied, "Well. All right. Try actually speaking to me next time guys!"
They all walked inside and made themselves lunch. Fi hurried upstairs as soon as her food was made. She ran to her computer and began her day's entry.

Dear Diary,
What's up with me? Nothin' much! I just went to the mall with my Bell of the Ball. Corny, I know, but I don't care! Man, he is so sweet. He just helped me out without even having to ask. I mean, after running into that old woman, I was about to have a nervous breakdown. Carey cheered me up, AS USUAL! Geez, I love him! He's such a boy scout when I need him to be. Gotta love him!
That woman was just really creepy! I mean, we made eye contact right before we bumped into each other, so I KNOW she saw me and knew where she was going.
Clu didn't even have to ask if I needed help. He just gathered my shoppping bags and sat down. It's weird. After he left, Carey became my new best friend instead of Clu. We talked and stuff but weren't real close. I just miss him. He's still really distant even though he's home. He just acts kind of weird, like he's thinking about something really serious. It's kinda cool sometimes, but it kind of weirds me out!
I mean, he used to talk to me but now, he doesn't anymore. All he does is blush, look serious, and fuss with his brother. I wish he would talk to me!-
"FI!"
Fi left her computer and made her way downstairs. "Coming mom!"
When Fi got downstairs, she saw that Ned and Irene had also come over. Everyone was eating appetizers and drinking iced tea or soda in the family room. Fi went into the kitchen, got some iced tea, and joined them. They were all talking like the day before, but Clu and Carey were sitting next to each other with a space by Clu, who had his arm draped around the back of the couch. Fi sat down next to him and put his arm closer to her, draping loosely around her shoulders. He, his brother, and Jack were talking about some new video game. Fi just sat, thinking. Clu turned to her and said, "What do you think, Fi?"
"Huh?"
"What do you think about Drag Racer 2010?"
"Oh. I don't know. I've never really played it."
"Okay. Well, maybe you could come over and try it!"
"All right."
She really didn't want to play some juvenile game. That would be almost as bad as when she was interested in the paranormal. Why had she even liked it, anyway? She couldn't remember. Didn't it have something to do with her father? Oh well, everyone forgets parts of their childhood. Except usually those parts aren't as big as this was! Either way, both the game and her old obsession now seemed childish! But, if playing the game meant some time with Clu, she was game!
It was bad enough that she was sitting right next to him, in his arms, well one of them anyway, close enough to smell his cologne, which was aboslutely intoxicating! Finally, the guys touched on a topic that she knew! The new Lord of the Rings movie. It was supposed to be a pretty good movie! They all talked about how they thought it would be.
Molly eventually went to the kitchen to begin making dinner for seven. Well, it was more like nine since Clu and Carey ate more than anybody else she knew. Talk about pigs! An hour later, everyone piled into the kitchen to eat. Molly, Ned, and Irene were eating at the island while the kids ate at the table. Everyone was digging into spaghetti and garlic bread. Clu got a piece of garlic on his cheek and Fi had to get it off. Clu grinned and blushed sheepishly. "thanks Fi!"
She smiled back and said, "No problem! Glad to be of service!"
The two sat smiling and gazing at each otheruntil Jack cleared his throat."*AHEM!* Hey, space cadets! Earth to Fi and Clu!"
They snapped to attention. Carey kicked Jack in the shin underneath the island's bar. Jack glared at Carey and returned to his dinner.Fi turned to Clu and whispered to him, "Hey, go to my room after dinner. We need to talk!"
Clu nodded and began inhaling his food. Carey tapped him on the shoulder and whispered, "Dude! What's up? You never eat this fast unless there's somethin' wrong!"
Clu stopped, looked at him for a second, and said, "Bro. I think my luck is changing!"
Clu began inhaling his food even faster than before.
