Be234therz: lol, You're welcome! Thanks! I liked the ending, and 'Get out, Josh, get out!' LOL I will, I've been sick, and haven't done anything, but I read ur xanga comment, and felt bad, and said to myself, "That's it, you update all of those stories you've taken on, and you do it now!" LOL so I finally did:D Oh, thanks, yeah, Law and order SVU, lol It's been forever since she's been on a TV show or movie, so I had to see it, I don't really care for SVU much, a little 2 risqué for my taste, but the one with her on it was interesting, lol. I knew that, she called herself conehead, so said Rachel, or conehead lol, I love the name Rachel, lol I want to change my name to that sometimes, even since I saw friends for the first time, that became my favorite name, lol sounds funny, my friend Lizzie can balance books on her head and walk she took like etiquette classes when she was really young, lol, so she likes to try that with basketballs, at p.e., and it never works, but it's funny to watch! LOL

JamiePaige101: Thank-you!

The next morning, Drake awoke alone. Drake looked around the seriously messed up room for signs of Amanda, but none, just the clothes she had had on the day before strew about the room. Then he noticed a note sitting on his night stand. In Amanda's pretty hand writing it read:

Drake,

I would have loved to have stayed and discussed where we are and last night, but I have to find a job here, and I think I found the one for me, wish me luck!

Love always,

Amanda

Drake smiled, he loved how she always knew how to answer what he was going to ask, before he had even asked it. He jumped up from the almost torn apart bed, and looked at it, "Wow," he thought.

After he got dressed, he had to try and fix the bedroom, if anyone had walked in, they'd think they'd been robbed. It took him about fifteen minutes to fix it, but he was happy with the result. When he got downstairs, Megan stared at him, and then held up her napkin, so it covered the left side of her face, so she couldn't see Drake, and said, "I can't do it, I can't look at him,"

Then Josh snickered, and said, "Way to go,"

Then his mom and dad exchanged glances, and then Audrey said, "That's enough," then she looked at Megan, "And put your napkin down!" Megan didn't want to, but she did.

Then there was a jingling sound from outside, and then the door opened, and Amanda, who was wearing a black pants suit, and shiny black pumps, stood in the doorway, "Hey," she said cheerfully.

Clunk, clunk, clunk, (A/N: you know the sound high heels make on hardwood? That's what the clunking is supposed to sound like, lol) Amanda walked to the table, and Megan's napkin returned to where it had been before.

Everyone stared at her uneasily, and she began to get confused, and shot Drake a 'What-the-heck-is-going-on?-why-are-they-looking-at-me-like-that?' glance, and he cleared his throat, and said, "Um, hi, did you get the job?"

"Um, I'll tell you in a second, what's going on here?" she said

"Uh…well…."Drake looked at his mom, then at his dad, then at Josh, who was snickering 'til the cows came home, then said, "Can I, talk to you for a second?"

"Please do," she said, as he hastily pulled her out of the dining room and up the stairs.

He shut the door to the guest room behind him, and he sat next to her on the bed.

"O.K., well, my whole family, they…well…remember what I told you about the walls in this place?"
Amanda's eyes got so wide, they might've fallen from her head, "NO!" She said, "No, no, no, no, NO!"

"I really wish we lived elsewhere right now," he said

Amanda had stood up, and was now pacing back and forth, with her hand on her forehead, "This is so embarrassing! Why does this keep happening to me? Have I done something horrible to deserve this? I don't understand, does this house have ANY insulation! Or where they all leaning against the wall listening?"

"Amanda, something tells me that we have no insulation,"
"Great, that's just great."

"So, did you get the job?"

"Oh, yeah."

"You did!"

"Yeah," she said

"That's great!" Drake hugged Amanda, then spun her around, "Wait, what exactly is the job?"

Amanda shook her head, then said, "I work in marketing at Calvin Klein,"

"That's amazing. Have you heard from that Non-H using fellow?"

"Who?"

Drake cleared his throat, then using a fake British accent (A/N: like my Granddad's, lol), "(H)Ello, I'm the realator that's selling you this fabulous apartment,"

"Oh, him, no not yet,"

A/N: TAFN! Bedtime, lol

Regards,

Britannia
