"Chapter Three"
"YOU WHAT?" Paige freaked out as Hazel began to laugh. "What's so funny?"
"You are so gullible!" Hazel giggled. "All Jimmy and I did was talk all night. Then, we came up with this plan."
"..." Paige just gave her a dirty look.
"Oh c'mon Paige!" Hazel put her arm around her friend. "It was all in good fun."
"You just wait," Pagie threatened with an evil grin. "I'll get you back."
"Hah!" Hazel smiled. "You just try."
-
Meanwhile Dylan was talking on his cell phone in his room. "You're where? ... That's not too far from here... I don't really know how Marco would feel about that ... Well, I can give you a ride, but I'm gunna bring Marco ... How do I know if you're gunna try something? ... Look, do you want a ride or not? ... Fine! I'll be there in an hour... Bye!" Dylan hung his cell phone up and turned to Marco who was sleeping peacefully. Dylan nudged Marco to wake him up. He had no luck. 'I'll just go and drop Tom off and come right back!' He thought to himself as he got some clothes on and left the cabin.
-
Paige ran into Spinner's room. "Honeybee! Wake up!" Paige demanded as Spinner rolled over. "I have to talk to you." She ordered.
Spinner opened his eyes and mumbled, "Just five more minutes please."
"Just wake up!" Paige ordered.
Spinner managed to get himself to sit up, "What?"
"We have to pull a prank," Paige said.
"On who?" Spinner became interested.
"On Hazel and Jimmy," Paige smirked.
"Why?" Spinner questioned.
"Don't worry about that Honeybee. We just have to."
"Okay but what?"
They sat there consulting pranks to pull.
-
About an hour later Dylan pulled up to a red-ish motel where Tom was waiting. Tom jumped in the car and looked at Dylan. "Thanks for coming to get me."
"No problem," Dylan replied as he backed out and got on the road again. "Where am I taking you now?"
"I just need you to take me into the next town. My Aunt and Uncle live there." Tom replied.
"Who dropped you off here?" Dylan asked.
"My friend who was going up this way." Tom replied as he looked down at Dylan's hand. He motioned his hand towards Dylan.
Dylan moved his hand quickly, "What the hell are you doing?"
"Sorry," Tom just stared at his lap.
About 45 minutes later, Dylan had made it into the next town.
"Turn here," Tom demanded as Dylan turned the corner and proceeded into a small neighborhood. "It's that red house up there." Dylan continued to drive until he made it to a huge red house with blue trim. He pulled into the driveway and stopped the car. "Thanks Dylan."
"No problem Tom," Dylan smiled. Tom hesitated for a second then quickly leaned in to kiss Dylan. This caught Dylan off gaurd. Dylan's eyes grew wide as Tom tried to kiss him. Dylan pushed Tom off of him. "What's your problem."
"Dylan, I'm sorry, It's just that..." Tom started.
"...It's just that you don't want me to be with Marco!" Dylan yelled.
"I'ts not that I don't want you... Okay yes it is. I had you first!" Tom yelled.
"Not really. We never even dated eachother." Dylan said.
"We almost did!" Tom freaked. "Until that Marco came along."
"Don't make it seem like Marco stole me." Dylan yelled. "It's not my fault I love him!"
"Y.. you love him?" Tom questioned.
"Y...Yah! I do love him. So back off." Dylan demanded. Tom jumped out of the car and went into the house. Dylan backed out of the driveway and began to drive back to the lake.
-
Marco finally woke up to find Dylan not there. He looked around but could not find him anywhere. He finally went into Spinner's room where he found Paige and Spinner.
"Morning Marco," Paige smiled.
"Morning," Marco sat down. "Have you seen Dylan?"
"He said he had to go pick up Tom and drop him off somewhere." Paige replied.
"T...Tom?" Marco's face became sad.
"Dude, don't worry," Spinner reassured. "Tom is not competition. Besides Dylan is already with you."
"Yah," Paige smiled. "Dylan would not do that to you. Take it from someone who lives with him."
"To get your mind off it, why don't you help us?" Spinner smiled.
"Yah!" Paige grinned. "Help us prank Hazel and Jimmy."
Marco sighed, "If you insist. What's the prank?"
"We are gunna...."
-
Marco ran inside and went right to Hazel and Jimmy. "Jimmy, Hazel, Spinner is hurt!"
"What?" They both yelled aloud.
"Spinner was showing off for Paige by jumping off the rock and trying to dive into the lake. But he hit his head on a rock and now he's bleeding and unconcious." Marco screamed.
"Oh my God!" Jimmy yelled. "Let's go!" They ran outside and up to the beach area where Spinner laid in the sand with Paige by his side crying. "Is he alright?"
"I d... don't know," Paige sobbed. "He's bleeding badly and he's out cold."
"Is he breathing?" Hazel asked as Jimmy knelt down to find out. Spinner was breathing.
"He's breathing." Jimmy said. "But he may have a concusion."
"NOOOOOOOOOO!" Paige covered her head in her arms and began to laugh.
"What's so funny Paige?" Hazel asked. Spinner and Marco began to laugh also.
"What's going on?" Jimmy questioned.
"Boy you guys are so gullible!" Paige smirked right at Hazel.
"WHA?" Jimmy was confused.
It was then that Dylan drove up and parked at the Cabin. He walked down to the beach, "What's going on?"
"Oh nothing!" Spinner smiled. "Just pranking the prankers."
"What prank?" Jimmy questioned. "I never pulled a prank."
"Uh... Jimmy." Hazel said.
"What?" Jimmy asked.
"Remember last night when we were talking," Hazel said. "I said that I was gunna pull a prank on Paige."
"Yah, but what does that have to do with me?"
"I told them you helped." Hazel smiled.
"Oh..." Jimmy plopped down. "Well that's okay I guess."
"Right so Marco can I talk to you?" Dylan asked.
Marco's face became worried as he agreed. He followed Dylan up to the top of the big rock. "W... what's up?" Marco asked.
"I wanted you to know that I gave Tom a lift to his aunts." Dylan said.
"I know." Marco replied.
"Oh... Who told you?" Dylan asked.
"Paige did." Marco replied.
"Oh, well I have something to tell you." Dylan's became nervous.
"What is it?" Marco asked.
"It started when Tom tried to hold my hand. I jerked away. But when I dropped him off he like totally kissed me. For a second it caught me off gaurd. He got mad and said he still wanted me. But I said... Well all that really doesn't matter," Dylan said.
"It doesn't?" Marco became even more worried.
"I'm just trying to say that..." Dylan began.
"That you what?" Marco questioned.
"That I... I love you!" Dylan let out a large breathe and smiled.
"..." Marco did not know what to say. He didn't even know if he felt the same way.
"Well..." Dylan said. "You don't have to love me back."
"Um... Can I just think for a little while?" Marco asked.
"If you'd like to." Dylan got up and walked away.
'Wow,' Marco thought to himself. 'I've got some major thinkning to do.' Marco sat on the rock thinking.
-
Dylan was laying on his bed in his room when Paige walked in. "Hey bro," Paige smiled and sat down next to him. "What's up."
"Nothing," Dylan sighed.
"What's wrong?" Paige asked.
"Well, It's just that I told Marco that I loved him," Dylan replied.
"You did?" She smiled. "How cute."
"But, I don't think he loves me," Dylan frowned. "I'm afraid I told him too early."
"It's never too early for love," Paige rubbed her brother's shoulder. At that time Marco walked into the room. "I'll leave!" Paige got up and quickly left the room.
Marco sat down by Dylan on the bed. Dylan sat up and turned so he was facing Marco, "Hey Marco." He smiled trying not to show that he was worried.
"I did some thinking," Marco said.
"About what?" Dylan played stupid.
"I've decided that I..." Marco began.
"...That you..." Dylan moved closer to Marco.
"...That I..." Marco was saying as Spinner ran in.
"Guys," he said frantically. "We have to go back home right now!"
"What?" Dylan questioned. "Why?"
"My sis...sister!" Spinner screamed. "She's been hit by a car!"
"Oh my God!" Dylan got up and so did Marco. "Okay! Get your stuff packed and then we'll leave."
"Okay!" Spinner ran out of the room and began to pack. Dylan and Marco grabbed their stuff and packed it. After a while they were all loaded up in the car. Dylan began to drive rapidly. Speeding as fast as he could.
-
After a few hours they were back in town. Dylan drove to the hospital, and as soon as he parked Spinner was gone. He ran inside to find his mother standing there crying. "MOM!" He yelled as he ran up to her.
"Oh Gaven," Mrs. Mason hugged her son.
"Is Kandra all right?" Spinner was worried.
"They say she should be fine." Mrs. Mason said. "But she needs surgery."
"Surgery?" Spinner questioned.
"Yes," Mrs. Mason said. "I will need you home while she's here. I have to work extra shifts to get some money."
"Okay mom," Spinner agreed. The others walked in and sat down in the waiting area.
"Do you think she's okay?" Paige asked.
"I hope so," Dylan replied.
-
Many hours had passed and Paige, Spinner, Hazel, Jimmy, and Mrs. Mason were asleep. Dylan was staring out the huge glass windows while Marco stared at Dylan. "Dylan!" Marco called.
Dylan turned to Marco, "Yah?"
"Come with me," Marco said as he got up and walked out of the building followed by Dylan. They walked a little ways down the side of the hospital. "I need to say what I was going to say earlier."
"Okay," Dylan looked down and then looked back up.
"I... I ..." Marco studdered. "I... feel the... s... same way... as you! I love you too."
