A/N: Hope you liked the previous chapter. this one's a bit shorter. Continue to R&R

Ashley walked down the halls. Friday, finally. Only yesterday she found out Sean was going to get it. Now, she didn't see him anywhere. She walked by Emma's locker, but no one was there. She looked through the windows of the MI lab. Only a few kids where in there, none like Sean. Maybe Craig would know but Ashley didn't see him around here either. Ashley continued down the hall and found herself in a conversation with Paige and Hazel.
"So who's all invited?" Hazel asked Paige. "A lot more people! In addition to everyone who was there, J.T.," Paige started.
"J.T.?" Hazel seemed surprised.
"Yeah, and his hot cousin," The two laughed. "Marco, because Spinner was a jerk that day, Sean, Daisy, Sandra,"
"Sean?" Ashley said.
"Yeah, I mean, he's cool, I've talked to him, plus he donated to the Spirit Squad Campaign, he deserves it," Paige said. She then looked over Ashley shoulder. "But I haven't officially invited him so be right-"

"I'll do it," Ashley said. She then ran over to him. He seemed a bit stern. "Sean," Ashley called. Sean kept walking. She then pulled on his shoulder then he turned around.
"What?" He said. Ashley became offended.
"You okay?" She asked.
"Do I look okay?"
"Sean, I heard about those guys and what they want to do," Ashley admitted.
"What? You talked to them?"
"No, they came up to me, I thought I was to get devoured and,"
"Right, like I don't already know," Sean said walking off. Ashley wouldn't give up.
"Sean, wait, maybe we can talk, I've been through some pretty similar stuff," Ashley said. Sean turned to her. "Maybe we could talk sometime," Ashley said.
"What did you really want to tell me because I don't want you to baby me," Sean said.
"Well, Paige wants you to come to her party Saturday-"
"No thanks," He said and walked off again. Ashley watched him disappear into the crowd.

"Hey Hottie, how are you doing today?" Paige walked up to Spinner. Spinner looked at her with a smile.
"Better now," He said. They gave each other a quick kiss.
"So, coming to my party this Saturday: Paige's Encore Party. Everyone's talking about it," Paige bragged. Spinner nodded to himself and looked at Paige who had a slight smile on her face.
"Yeah, I heard some people talking about it," Spinner said.
"Yeah, 'cause it wouldn't be a bash without my honey bear," Paige said showing her sweet face. Spinner grinned.
"You're so cute," Spinner said. Paige giggled to herself. "Hey and how about after the parties over, I could stay after. That would be cool right? Me and you, watch a movie, I mean, your parents won't be home till like 8:00 in the morning, I'ld be gone by then." Spinner suggested. Paige looked at him.
"Maybe, don't be getting any ideas though," Paige, said. Spinner shrugged.
"What kind of ideas would I ever think about?" Spinner joked. Paige giggled a bit. "Anyways, why are you having an encore party?" Spinner curiously asked. Paige thought up something quick.
"Oh, because, Ash's house was a bit smaller then mine, I could fit more people into, that's why I invited more people," Paige lied. Suddenly the bell rung and Spinner looked around like it was new to him. "Oh wow, look at the time, looks like another torture class with Ms. Kwan," Paige said walking into Ms. Kwan's room.

"Ash, you want to come over my house and begin decorating? I have so much to do!" Paige asked.
"Sorry, mom says I have to pay my dues before attending," Ash lied. Paige shook her head.
"Total drag, Kerwin, chores are such a bore but like the party helper I know, you'll be quick and maybe find some time to come over and help," Paige suggested. Ashley huffed.
"If I have time Paige," Ashley shook her head with a smile. Paige chuckled and signaled Hazel it was time to go. Ashley continued down the hall. As she walked she saw Sean walked out the door with his sweat jacket around his waist revealing is white tank top. Ashley was about to follow when she saw the two guys. Walk out after him. Ashley's heart stopped. There were a couple guys behind him too. As they started out the guy with the light hair looked back at her. He smiled a little and continued out the door. After the all disappeared, Ashley ran out the door. She saw them running around the corner each one taller than the other. As she darted towards them, she was pulled back by Toby.
"Ash, c'mon, I thought you were walking home with me and Terri," Toby said. Ashley wanted to still run after the gang, but Toby didn't need to see what might have been happening and he would have followed her. Ashley followed Toby's way to find Terri. Ashley prayed he would be okay.
