Chapter Twelve:

When Sam got home she went right to the fridge, she needed to know if she had to go to the store for anything.

"Hey mom, I invited some people over for dinner." Sam yelled. "Mom?"

"Sammy, I thought mom told you. She's going out with that guy again." Chad said coming up behind her.

"Oh, alright."

"Sorry, but I'm going out too. You'll have the house to yourself tonight, don't do anything I wouldn't do."

"You're leaving too? So I have to entertain these people myself?" Sam asked finally turning around.

"Yeah, it shouldn't be to bad. Besides you invited them all by yourself."

"Alright fine, go have fun."

"Alright, bye." with that he left.

Sam was now left all alone, she was expecting people over in three hours. She didn't even have anything to feed them, this day was just getting better and better. She finally decided to order some pizza, that could at least get delivered.

She didn't know what kind they liked so she ordered, pepperoni. Everyone loves pepperoni, she went into her room and got dressed. As soon as she was done the door bell rang, it was the pizza guy. She gave him his money and he soon left, she brought it into the kitchen.

As soon as she put it down on the counter, the door bell rang again. It was Mikey and Moe, also some girl she'd never seen before.

"Hey, c'mon in." she said stepping aside and leading them into the living room. "Is there anything you'd like to drink?"

"I'd like a diet root beer, if you have it." the girl said.

"I'll just have the same." Mikey and Moe said in unison.

Sam went into the kitchen and returned with their drinks, she sat down on the couch next to Mikey.

"Sam I'd like you to meet Maritza, she works with me." Moe said introducing the two of them, while scratching.

"Nice to meet you Maritza." Sam said shaking her hand.

"Like wise." she said.

"So, Maritza. That's a cool name."

"Not really, I hate it."

"You should try having Samantha as you're name, it sucks."

"So, where's Chad?" Moe asked.

"He went out with his girlfriend, why are you scratching?"

"My brother gave me poison ivy."

"Actually I gave you're brother the poison ivy, so you'd have to blame me." Sam said shyly.

"So what are we going to have?" Mikey asked trying to change the subject.

"I ordered some pizza, I hope you guys don't mind."

"I love pizza." Maritza said sounding excited.

"Then lets eat." Sam said getting up and leading them into the kitchen.

They all sat down and made small talk, none of them really knowing what to say.

"So, where'd you're mom go?" Mikey asked after about 5 minutes of silence.

"She's out on a date, some rich guy." Sam answered.

"Oh, you don't have a father?" Maritza asked sounding sad.

"It's no big deal, he left when my mom was pregnant with me. I've never known him, so I don't really miss him."

The rest of the time they were eating consisted of, the girls talking to each other and the guys talking to each other. It felt like it was a 3rd grade dance or something. After they were done eating they all went into the living room.

"That was really good, we'll have to do it again sometime." Maritza said sitting down on the couch.

"Yeah, it was fun." Sam agreed.

"As much fun as this is, I've gotta get home. I'll see you guys later." she said getting up. "Moe, aren't you going to drive me home?"

"Yeah, uh Mikey you'll be fine here right?" Moe asked eager about something.

"Yeah, it's only a walk down the street." he answered.

"Alright, we'll have to do this again sometime soon. You two have a good night." Moe said leaving with Maritza.

"You too." Sam and Mikey said in unison.

After Moe and Maritza left, they sat there in silence.

"So, what do you wanna do now?" Sam asked.

"Sleep." he said leaning back and closing his eyes.

Sam sat there, soon Mikey fell asleep. So she turned on the tv, she started watching 'Friends' but fell asleep as well.

Her mom came home at about 11, when she walked through the door she started yelling.

"SAMANTHA LOWENSTEIN, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING???"

Sam woke up and stood up, she wasn't sure what her mother was yelling about.

"What do you mean mom?"

Mikey woke up and looked up at her mother, he had no idea where she came from.

"Don't play dumb with me, you know very well what I'm talking about." her mother said calming down a little bit.

"Mom I honestly don't know what you're talking about, Mikey and I were just sleeping."

Her mother dragged her into her room, all Mikey could hear was muffled yelling. He couldn't make out a single word, the yelling finally stopped and Sam came into the living room.

"I'm sorry Mikey, but my mom wants you to leave." she said.

"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow then." he said heading to the door.

"Tomorrow's Saturday, I've got plans. I'll see you Monday."

She waited for him to leave, then went into her room. She layed down on her bed, and was listening to some heavy metal music. Mikey left and went home, when he opened the front door Moe was standing there.

"Hey, where've you been?" he asked.

"At Sam's, I'm gonna go to bed now." Mikey said going right to his room.

"What were you guys doing?" Moe asked following him.

"Whatever you and Ritza were doing, good night." after Mikey closed the door he smiled to himself.

Moe was left standing there with his mouth hanging open, he knew what him and Maritza did, but he prayed that Mikey hadn't been doing the same thing.
