~~~~~Next Day~~~~~

      It was like three p.m. and Margaret was at home taking a nap. Zane, Tony, Zander, and Zack were all at the mechanic shop working. Max, Original Cindy, Herbal, and Sketchy were at Jampony working. Logan and Bling were at the penthouse working on an eyes only case. Kendra was at her home doing god knows what with 'Mr. Multiples' (Walter).

            Jason and Willa were back at Zander's place hanging-out and talking--catching up. Jason was telling her about how fun the air-force academy was; he had joined because he wanted to become a pilot. Willa had told him about her and Zander and he couldn't be happier for them. Earlier Willa and Margaret had made plans to at least full-fill some of there summer vacation plans. So later tonight they were gonna go down to Crash and play some pool--more like Willa was gonna help Margaret get better at it.

~~~~~Margaret's Penthouse~~~~~

      There was a knock at the door that woke Margaret up from her sweet slumber. She got up and grunted something underneath her breath and went to open the door. She didn't even bother asking who it was she just opened the door and said.....

Margaret (ticked off from lack of sleep): Can I help--(Stopped dead in her tracks after taking a look see to who it was. Shawn and Amber were standing there looking at her.)Great it's YOU guys. If I remember correctly I thought I told you...no wait BOTH of you to leave Seattle.

Shawn (walking in the penthouse without being invited followed by Amber): Ya you did, but, uh, last time I checked you didn't own this city or anything else in this country so I wouldn't be talking.

Margaret (really pissed off): Ya well that maybe true but last time *I* checked I owned this damn penthouse and as I recall I didn't invite any of you in so why don't you get the HELL OUT! Before I throw you out.

Shawn (angry. walking over to Margaret and grabbing her arm and twisting it, through gritted teeth): You know what don't make threats you can't keep. You little b--

Zack (hearing everything from down the hallway with his hyper-sensitive hearing and walking into the penthouse): HEY! I think she told you to leave.

Shawn (still twisting Margaret's arm and turned to face Zack): Ya and who the hell are you?

Margaret (wrenching her arm free and cutting in before Zack could say anything and in an angry tone): That's Zack he's a friend of mine. Now you know so get the hell out before I call the police!

Shawn (grabbing Amber's arm): This isn't over--

Margaret: Oh who's making the empty threats now?

      As they walked off Zack slammed the door on them. Margaret went to the freezer and grabbed an ice pack--she put it on her arm. Zack walked over to her and asked...

Zack (worry and concern showing on his face): You okay?

Margaret: I'll live but I'm glad you showed up when you did. So what are you doing here anyway?

Zack: Well I took a late lunch break and came here to see if you wanted to have lunch with me?

Margaret (small smile): Thanks but I'm not really hungry. Maybe next time?

Zack: Ya sure.....hey Margaret?

Margaret: Hmm?

Zack: Is that all I am to you--a friend?

Margaret (face emotionless): Ya it is. I thought we decided a long time ago Zack.....we're just friends and nothing more. (She couldn't stand it anymore so she started to leave.) Um Zack shut the door on your way out.

      With that she left, and went to her room. There was a major ache in her heart and hot tears started to sting her eyes but she said to herself, "NO! I won't do this. Tonight is suppose to be a good night, I'm gonna hang with my home gurl. Girls' night out, right? Right."

      So she grabbed a tissue wiped her eyes, went to her closet picked out her outfit for the night, and finally went to take a nice long hot bubble bath.

~~~~~Crash~~~~~

      It was about 7:45 p.m. when Willa arrived at Crash she instinctively went and grabbed the pool table so no one else would take it. Fifteen minutes later Margaret came in and saw Willa at the pool table so she went and they started to shoot some pool. Like an hour later they had played twelve games, each won six games, they went and sat at the bar and grabbed a couple of drinks. While in deep conversation two guys came over and asked them to dance Margaret had accepted. Willa on the other hand declined on the fact that she had a boyfriend so her and the other guy sat at the bar and watched as there two friends got on the dance floor and started to shake there asses.

      So after a couple of hours of laughter, dancing, and fun Margaret and Jamie (the guy) exchanged there phone numbers and made a date for tomorrow night. So the guys left--Willa and Margaret played some more pool and then went home.
