Authors Note: I've Got A Dark Alley and A Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth by Fall Out Boy (you know I had to do a fob song sooner or later). Thank you to everyone who reviewed! I have decided to continue on with the story. And look at this! Wow! I have updated in less then 3 months! Unlike my other story… : )
Sarah – I probably will do that song later on and thanks for the idea!
Disclaimer: I do NOT own Nancy Drew and her friends. Okay, i just made her sound like Barbie. and i don't own that either. and i dont own the song that i'm using.
They went out once, so what? It didn't mean anything. They were just friends. At least that's what she thought. Bess and George would always try to get her to admit that she liked him. And what if she did? It's not possible that he liked her. Was it?
Well, joke me something awful, just like kisses on the necks of 'best friends'
We're the kids who feel like dead ends
And I want to be known for my hits, not just my misses
I took a shot and didn't even come close
At trust and love and hope
And the poets are just kids who didn't make it
And never had it at all
He liked her. But he would never tell Joe. His excuse for being around her so much, talking about her so much, and wanting to be around her so much? They were just really good friends. Just really really good friends. Sure he liked her, but did she like him? He would be dizzy with that thought every day.
And the record won't stop skipping
And the lies just won't stop slipping
And besides my reputations on the line
We can fake it for the airwaves
Force our smiles, baby, half dead
From comparing myself to everyone else around me
She kept getting calls from her ex. Calls saying "I'm Sorry". Calls saying "I can explain". Her favorite? "She's my cousin. I was just hanging out." Apparently he didn't see her seeing him kissing 'his cousin'. He really sucks at lying. And she can't and won't go back to him. Now that she met Frank. They had some much in common. Whoa. She's been gushing about Frank too much.
Please put the doctor on the phone, because I'm not making any sense.
Blame everyone but me for this mess
And my back has been breaking from this heavy heart
We never seemed so far
I'm hopelessly hopeful
You're just hopeless enough
But we never had it at all
He should call her. Hang out with her. Yeah, that would rock. He liked her eyes. Her sparkling blue eyes. Oh God, he has to stop day dreaming about her. Just has to stop. She's driving him mad. Maybe he will tell her about his feelings. Just maybe. He'd buy her some food, they play at the arcade, and then he will tell her. No! Stop! He's doing again! He's having fantasies about her. If she doesn't like him, he will be so sad.

She's going to delete that jerk's messages. Hmm… what's this? A new message? It better not be from that jerk. Ooooh! Maybe it's from Frank! With that idea, she presses the play button quickly. She listens to the message.
Hey Nan! It's me, Frank. Just wondering if you want to hang out with me tomorrow. Joe and I have no cases so I will be bored. So what do you say? Call me back.
She calls him back and get's his answering machine. Good. She to nervous to talk to him. She accepts the inventation and slams the phone down. She's dancing around the room when Bess and George enter the house. Nancy doesn't notice.
"Nan?" They say at the same time.
"Oh. Uh. Hi?" She says. Okay, this is awkward.
"Why are you dancing?" Bess asks.
"Uh….."
