Ch. 7

Dana stepped into the house taking in all the sights. Josh's house didn't resemble the house she expected. It was nice and tidy and had a scent of strawberries. She could tell that he was getting very annoyed by her antics. She followed him into the kitchen. Inside was an old lady and a middle-aged man. The lady smiled at Dana warmly.

"Hi I am Dana. Nice to meet you." Dana said shyly.

"No nice to meet you Dana. Josh barely brings girls over." the lady said still smiling.

"You must be that new girl Josh has been talking about so much." Mr. Lambert said.

"Oh, he talks about me." Dana said eyeing the blushing teen.

"Yes, he comes home and starts talking about how he li-" Mrs. Lambert was cut off.

"No, I do not. All I said was that she was nice." Josh said before they told her the unspeakable.

"OK. Whatever you say ,Josh." his dad said slyly.

"She's just a friend." Josh said pulling Dana up the stairs.

"Yea. She's just a friend alright." Mr. Lambert mumbled.

--Upstairs: Josh's room--

Josh lead her to his room and shut the door. He laid down on his bed forgetting about the blonde girl standing there. She took this opportunity to take a pillow and beat him, playfully, with it. They soon engaged into a pillow fight. Josh soon overpowered her and had pinned her on the bed. They stayed there in that position for about a minute or two before realizing it.

"My mom." Dana said finally breaking the silence.

"Oh yea. Your phone- I mean mom." Josh said quickly getting off of her.

Dana dialed her number and waited for her mom to respond. When she did Dana gave her Josh's address. After her mom clicked off Dana turned towards Josh.

"So what do we do while we wait?" Dana asked.

"There's movies and there are games over there." he said pointing to where the items were.

Dana went to the movie pile and picked out a movie called 'Princess I'. Josh moaned at her choice and suggested that they should watch 'Escaflowne: The Movie'. They flipped a coin to see which movie they would watch first. Dana picked tails and Josh picked heads. Josh flipped the coin and Dana's movie won. They watched a few minutes of 'Princess I' before getting bored. Then Josh remembered what he was going to tell her.

"Hey ,Dana." Josh called to her patting the seat beside him.

"Hm?" Dana asked taking the seat.

"Well, you know about today and all." Josh said.

"Yea, what about it?" Dana asked.

"The note. I was going to tell you sooner that my girlfriend is really jealous. She's gotten mad at everyone even the guys." Josh said.

"So it was Sara who didn't want me as your friend. Not you?" Dana asked.

"Yea." was all Josh said when Dana stood up.

"C'mon. Let's go downstairs to wait for my mom." Dana said, this time grabbing his hand.

"Alright, alright." he mumbled getting dragged from his room.

--Downstairs: Living Room--

Dana and Josh sat looking out the window for her mom. While waiting they took the time to play 'Soul Calibur' on the PS2. Josh beat her really quick. Then a car pulled into the driveway and Dana walked to the door.

"Josh, we're friends right?" Dana asked opening the door.

"Yea." was all Josh said.

"I had a great time. Bye." Dana said kissing him on the cheek

He didn't answer. He just waved goodbye to her when she was pulling out of his driveway. That reminded him of something. He had to make a phone call to a certain girlfriend. And that call wasn't a friendly one either.

--Pre Finale (A day-3 months afterwards)--

Josh and Sara broke up their final words being 'I would've been better off with that fat and sped kid.' A day later Sara hooked up with two people of whom she didn't know either one's names. Josh liked who ever he wanted without anyone's permission.

Dana and Josh became the best of friend's. A month after Josh's break up Dana and Josh started going out.

Takuya and Zoe started to date openly and ignored any disapproval of them going out. Like there was any.

Koji and Amber continued to see other people. Always ending up to go out with her.

JP ended up passing his class, that was sure to fail him, with flying colors. He also gained enough self-esteem to ask out the prettiest girl in his class who accepted what he had to offer.

Tommy? Tommy moved to a new home and school, which was only a block or so away from his other one.

Koichi basically stayed with the gang and just hung out for a while. He didn't worry about girls much at the time. Although he did have a huge fan club pleading and begging he decided to wait for 'Ms. Right.'

The gang stayed together till the very last day of school. At the end they promised to keep in touch.

Until 3 years later… TBC
