I meant to post this sooner, but with FF.net being down over Valentines Day
and everything going on in my life at the moment, I was delayed in putting
it up. So for those of you who are still reading this story, I am sorry for
the delay, and will try to get the rest of it up within a couple of days.
Thanks for being so patient with me. I would also once again like to thank
the people who reviewed this story. I am going to try to change the format
on it, so I hope it works out. If not, could someone email me and tell me
what I am doing wrong? My email is Courtberens10@hotmail.com
Chapter 5 We sat there and talked for awhile. "Do you have anywhere you need to be at a certain time?" he asked me. I shook my head. "No. It's a weekend and my friends have nothing planned for this weekend. I don't think anyway. Why?" I asked. "Because I took the rest of the day off work to be here, and we might as well make the best of it. Wanna go see a movie or something?" he asked. I nodded, thinking of something that I had always wanted to do with one of my friends, but never had the money. Well, it was the middle of winter in California, and even though it was warm, the thing I wanted to do wasn't available this time of year. "Let's go bowling." I suggested. He nodded. "Ok. Let's go." he said. So we bowled about 3 games until we ended up either getting tired or hurting our wrists from bowling so much and ended up back at the resturant. Once we had gotten to our cars(which were parked side by side), we stared at each other for what seemed like the longest time. "Well, we both should probably be getting home." David said. I nodded. "It was great meeting you. I think my friend was right, I discovered we have a lot in common." I said. He nodded. "I want to take you somewhere tomorrow. I know you'll like it, it's one of my favorite places. The last time you were there, you were only about 4 or 5 months old, so you wouldn't remember it. But I do." he said. I nodded. "Sounds fun. If I don't have any plans for tomorrow, we'll have to go for it. But I won't be sure until I call Jason and see if the group came up with anything while I was gone." I said, opening the door to my car and getting in. David did the same. "I'll call you tomorrow. And Tommy? Can I tell you something?" he asked. I nodded. "Sure, anything." I said. He smiled. "It was great hanging out with you. I wasn't sure how I would feel hanging out with a 17 year old, but you're pretty cool. And I enjoyed playing the part of the older brother. I'll be taking my role more seriously from now on." he said, winking at me as he got into his car and took out his keys. I laughed. "I bet you will. But I enjoyed playing the part of the annoying kid brother, since kid brothers are supposed to be annoying. And I'll be living up to that role." I said, winking back. He laughed. "I'm sure you will. But it'll be great. And we'll get to do all the things brothers should do." he said. I nodded and checked my watch. "I have to get going. I'll call you soon though, I promise." I told him, even though I didn't want to leave. I was having fun, and I didn't want to go back home because I knew going home would result in me fighting with my parents again, and I hated doing that. But I turned on the engine and waited until David turned out of the driveway, then followed him until we came to seperate streets. We both turned off and went our seperate ways to our houses.
