Hi~
Thanks so much for all the reviews! I've been busy with school lately, so I
haven't been able to update. But I love Labor Day Weekend! Anyway, I hope
these next chapters I write here will pick up the pace a little. I made a
slight change in Bean's age, he's really only supposed to be in 7th grade,
but I'm making him 14, almost 15 in 9th so then the Beans/Danielle thing
isn't so weird. Danielle is supposed to be 16, just in case you wondered.
Its still a little weird, but its better than a 13/16 year old
relationship.
Oh yeah, I don't own Even Stevens, the Superchic[k] song 'I belong to you', or the Nine Days song. I highly recommend you to buy their cd the Maddening Crowd though! It actually came out around 2001 or so, but I still love it. Input and ideas are appreciated!
Thanks~ Ren117
Set to be a month after the lake. ******Danielle******
Beans strolled into the crowded party. The music was booming, making the ground vibrate with the bass. The moderately fast song "257 Weeks" started playing.
"Care to dance?" He asked Danielle.
She put on a mock serious face. "Beansy, I'd love to." She broke into a smile. She wasn't used to calling him by his nickname, but he insisted that she call him that.
Beans pulled her to the center of the dance floor. He loved her smile. Man, did he owe Chris big! He pulled her slightly close, but left her hands free.
'You could be waiting for a day that won't come,
And you could be so much more than you've become.
And I have found my feet 257 weeks,
But you could be waiting for a day that won't come...'
'You could be waiting for your life to begin,
And you could be so much more than you've been.
And I have found my feet 257 weeks,
You could be waiting for your life to begin,
And it's so sad,
You're so good and I'm so bad!'
'But you won't see me wasting the best thing I've ever had.
And it's such a shame,
That I can't tell you anything!
You won't hear me still you endear me now!...'
Beans grabbed Danielle's butt. She playfully glared at him, then replaced his hands on her waist.
He put his hands on her butt again. He loved playing with fire. Danielle laughed, and Beans grinned devilishly.
She moved his hands again. "Quit it!" she said unconvincingly.
Beans moved his hands back, laughing. Danielle took them off, and Beans replaced them again.
Danielle sighed. "I surrender." A smile crept on her face as she in turn placed her hands on his butt.
Man he loved this girl!
The song ended and a slow song started. They stopped suddenly at the change of mood. Beans' hands started to sweat. He looked into her eyes, her beautiful blue eyes. Danielle smiled shyly then sank into him. Her head rest on his shoulder a little awkwardly because of her being slightly taller than him.
'Everybody needs to belong somewhere,
Life can feel so alone without someone who cares,
And when life becomes something just to get through,
That's when I'm glad that I belong to you.'
Danielle leaned against Beans. This was really the first time they'd been close. Sure, she slept next to him, but this was different, it felt more intimate.
She felt so warm, so soft, she smelt so good. They moved slowly back and forth around the dance floor. Just being around her was intoxicating. He loved being around her; she was perfect. He could joke with her, do stupid stuff without her getting mad..., not to mention she was incredibly hot! But it was more than that, he just wanted to hold her forever, keep on dancing for eternity.
*
When she first met him, her older sister Lisa had her best friend Chris and her cousin over, Beans. Back then he was just a chubby little kid with a high voice, but she liked him. He wasn't so high strung like everyone else. A month ago now, Dani became friends with Chris, who set her up with Beans, who was now a slightly strange, tall, skinny, deep-voiced teenager. They had been more like best friends than boyfriend and girlfriend. He hadn't even kissed her yet. It was only now that she wanted more from the relationship.
*
I belong to you,
I belong to you,
You're the one who will never let me down,
Won't let me down,
I belong to you.
The song was leading up to the end. This was his chance. Danielle lifted her head off his shoulder. Beans leaned in to kiss her, then felt a sneeze coming on. Before he could do anything, spit flew all over her. She came out of her daze.
"That is so disgusting!" Danielle began to storm off, then stopped mid- stride.
"Oh no, you are not going to win this one!" She tickled her nose and sneezed all over him in return. She crossed her arms irritably and watched him mop off his face. Beans stood there shocked for a second, then started to crack up. Pretty soon he was laughing uncontrollably. He reached and wiped off Danielle's face with his sleeve.
It was so hard not to laugh, but she was determined to stay mad. It didn't last for very long. She was laughing just as hard after a minute. She wiped a little spit from his face.
"Stop laughing!" She said in between giggles. "You spit all over me!"
"Hey, you spit on me too, and on purpose!" Beans mock protested. People were staring at them now.
"Come on, lets get outta here. I need a shower." She pulled him to the door.
*******
"Do you really need a shower, Dani?" Beans asked her at his apartment door.
"Hm...Maybe." She smiled. He kissed her lightly on the cheek. She shifted so he could get her lips, but he already moved to open the door. She turned away, slightly disappointed.
When Beans and Danielle walked in, Louis was on top of Tawny making out. They didn't notice, or didn't care that they were there. Danielle cleared her throat uncomfortably. Louis and Tawny looked up casually.
"Hey, did you know you could get mono from that?" Beans said slightly amused.
"I think I'll risk it," Louis said, diving in again. Tawny let him kiss her briefly, then pulled away.
"Not infront of them, come on." She lightly pushed him off. Louis followed obediently.
"Here, I'll get you guys something to drink." Louis headed toward the kitchen. Beans followed, leaving Tawny and Danielle to talk.
"You guys are certainly moving fast," Danielle said, laughing uncomfortably. Afterall, wasn't it their first date in a while?
"Do you think I was going to let him try anything?" Tawny smirked. "Yeah right. I was just playing with him. He can't pull anything with me."
Danielle was relieved. "That's good." Nothing was wrong with them being close, but it wasn't exactly her favorite thing to watch her new friends make out.
"What about you and Beans?" Tawny asked.
"What do you mean?"
"You two seemed to be hitting it off at the restaurant. How's it going?"
"Good. I think its working out perfectly." Danielle said truthfully. She just wished he would kiss her. It was kinda weird though. If he really liked her, he would kiss her, right? He did kiss her at the door, but that was only on the cheek. How could she be sure Beans was for real?
"Drinks!" Louis announced, throwing a can of pop at Tawny.
Beans handed Danielle a can of pop, noticing the worried look on her face.
"Something wrong?"
"No, everything's fine." She forced a smile.
"Good," he said, satisfied with her answer.

Well, sorry this chapter was a bit overdue. I made it slightly longer than normal to make up for it. I hoped you liked it. I know it was a little choppy, but tried. I'm also having some trouble with spacing. I know its not the best, but I can't seem to make the spaces between paragraphs bigger, so hang in there. Please R&R!
Thanks Ren117
