An Old Friendship Rekindles

'Katie? Earth to Katie,' Summer said. Katie was still standing there, not moving, but staring off into space. Did Freddy really just kiss her? She thought it might have been some weird daydream...no, he definitely kissed her.

'Oh,' Katie, snapping back to reality, 'yea, umm, sorry, claustrophobic,' she lied. She back down with Summer, and noticed that every time she looked over at Freddy, he would blush and look away. Once in a while he would give her his famous Jone's Smirk, and then look away.

The game of truth or dare went on for about another 10 minutes. Then everyone decided to get back to dancing and having a good time. Katie was dancing, yet still thinking about the kiss Freddy gave to her. She saw him across the room dancing with another girl that Katie was friends with. Wow...Freddy Jones kissed me...does that mean he likes me? No, he doesn't, look at the way he's dancing with Michelle. We're only friends. But why did he kiss me?...she thought to herself.

Katie decided to not think about it and concentrate on the great time she was having. All of a sudden, she sees someone out of the corner of her eye. It's Eric! No, wait, it's isn't possible...IT IS! ERIC! Eric moved last year before 10th grade, what is he doing here?

Flashback

It was Eric's last day in town before he moved. He was sitting next to Katie on her front porch. She was crying her eyes out. Eric was leaving...not just to another town, but another state! Across the country! He was leaving New Jersey and going to California! Eric had been Katie's boyfriend and the love of her life since the beginning of 8th grade...and he was leaving.

'I'm sorry Posh, I have to leave, I don't have a choice,' Eric said as he tried to comfort her by hugging her.

'I know, but I can't stand it, Eric. I can't believe in 12 hours you're going to be on a plane flying to another part of the country.'

'I will write you everyday, but, I think we shouldn't try a long distance relationship,' Eric said in a weak voice.

Katie pulled away from him, tears still slowing down her face, stained by her mascara, 'What do you mean?'

'I don't want you to have to be alone here and think you can't go out with anyone, you need to move on.' He said, 'but remember Katie Brown, I will always love you.'

End Flashback

Eric saw Katie and walked over to her, giving her a big hug. Everyone knew Eric and were great friends with him. Katie hugged him back as tight as she could before he said, 'Hey Posh, it's good to see you, but can I have my neck back please, I mean, I do need some oxygen.'

'OH MY GOD, ERIC, YOUR BACK!' Katie squealed, 'and how long are you here for?'

'Yes I'm back, and it's for good. My dad was retransferred back to Horace Green. I'm back Katie,' Eric said with a big smile on his face. Everyone came over to greet him, except for Freddy. Freddy had always been jealous of Eric. He had always had a crush on Katie, but didn't tell anyone except Zack and Summer, and he knew that they wouldn't tell anyone or they would get his fist in their jaw. Now that Eric was back, Was Katie going to hook up with Eric again?

'REALLY? Where's your new house?' Katie asked, hoping it was somewhere close.

'Down the street, actually, it's my old house.'

'NO WAY!' Katie screamed and hugged him again, 'Well, since you're here anyways, come on, let's dance.'

Katie and Eric danced the rest of the night. Freddy was seriously pissed about that.

How can he think he can just come back in here after a year and take Katie away from me? She's my best friend, and I want her...wow, I actually admit it to myself, I want Katie...

Later that night, after everyone went home, Katie put on her PJ's, crawled into bed and had the best dreams she had ever had before. Eric was back, could he still want a relationship with her? Wait...what about Freddy? What if Freddy really did want to go out w/ her? She really like Freddy, but, did she want him over Eric?

After the party, Freddy went home and got into bed. He couldn't stop thinking about the kiss in the closet, and how could Katie act like that after he just kissed her? Sure, Eric, the love of her life is back, but that doesn't mean she can just blow him off! Well, he was dancing with Michelle every time Katie looked over at him. But he and Michelle are just friends...there was nothing there! The only person he wanted was Katie Brown.
