Chapter 4

Summer's POV

I took out my cell phone and dialed up my mom. I had decided to call her and tell her not to pick me up from Dewey's. I wanted to walk, get some thinking done. I started down the street. I was happy and sad at the same time. I was happy because everyone had loved my idea of the dance and was excited for it, but I was upset Freddy walked out on me. At least he did it in a nice way. That's something I like about him, he's a bad boy but not always that mean. Because of that, I needed to ask him out soon. I knew he wanted to ask Marta, but I didn't know if he would turn me down or not. Oh well, I'll just have to find out. I'll call him when I get home.

Freddy's POV

I grabbed my phone and plunked down on my bed. Here goes nothing, I thought to myself. I was just about to dial up Marta when my phone rang. I picked it up.

"Hello?" I asked, wondering who it was, and hoping it wasn't Summer.

"Hey man, it's Zack." Phew!

"Hey dude, what's up?"

"I want your advice on who I should ask to the dance."

"Well it's your decision, but if I was you I would ask Alicia. It's so obvious she likes you."

"I know, but she's pretty rude to some people. She doesn't seem my type. I was kind of thinking of Katie."

"I don't know about Katie, I think she likes Gordon."

"Yeah, you're probably right. So should I ask Alicia?"

"Yeah, then we can hang out at the dance since Marta and Alicia are friends."

"That is if Marta says yes."

"Oh shut up, she will." Our conversation was interrupted by my mom.

"Freddy? Summer is on the phone!" she called from downstairs. Oh no! I went back to Zack.

"Zack? Summer's on the other line!"

"Uh oh! What are you gonna do?"

"Hold on a sec." I set down the phone and called back down to my mom.

"I'm on the other line with Zack!"

"Ok, well call Summer back when you get off."

"I will." After I call Marta, I thought. I went back to Zack.

"You still there Zack? I got to go and call Marta before I have to call Summer back."

"Ok, good luck!"

"Thanks, you too! Bye!"

"Bye."

20 mins later

It was done! Marta had said yes! Now all I had to do was call Summer back, which was not something I was looking forward to doing.
