Chapter Five: Lie After Lie
Sandy came home. "Am I grounded mum?" she asked.
"No." her mother said, "I think it was good for you to be on your own for one day. But just tell me next time."
"Alright." Sandy lied.
The next day Sandy went to school early. "Why do I feel like Sandra's being so distant lately?"
Stan shrugged & stepped outside, bumping right into… PASHMINA!
"Oh hi Stan." Pashmina said, blushing like crazy, "Do you want to walk with me?"
"Sure." Stan said.
Both of them blushed the whole was to school.

"Are you sure you want to do this Sandy?" Kether asked during lunch.
"I'm sure so quit asking me!" Sandy said.
"What's Sandy doing?" Maxwell asked.
"She's getting a t-" Kether started to say.
"Shirt." Sandy lied.
"That was close." Kether whispered.
"Tell me about it!" Sandy said.
Later on that same day…Sandy was singing American Idiot when Maxwell came up behind her.
"Don't want to be an American I-" Sandy jumped when she saw Maxwell, "Hi."
"Where the heck did you hear Green Day?" Maxwell asked.
"I heard them at K-… um… 'Keith's Special Music For You' the radio station I found while browsing & now I'm totally hooked!" Sandy lied.
Maxwell gave her a suspicious look. "I thought you said that you hated that kind of music."
"I used to. But what can I say? I broadened my horizons." Sandy shrugged, "ButIreallyneedtogobyeMaxwell!" she rushed off.
"Hey rebel," Maxwell said.
Kether rolled his eyes. "Ya loser?" he answered.
"What's wrong with her?" Maxwell asked.
"How am I supposed to know that?" Kether asked.
"You slept with her." Maxwell said.
Kether actually doubled over in laughter. "Honestly you idiot, that's the stupidest accusation that's been made in a long time." He walked off after Sandy.
"HAS EVERYONE GONE INSANE? BASKET CASES!" Maxwell shouted.
"Hey luv," Kether said, "You'd look good with your eyebrow-Dexter walks up-um, dyed!" he finished in a lie.
"Yeah…" Sandy lied, "I, um, agree."
"You two talk about the lamest things." Dexter said & he walked off.
Sandy started laughing.
"What were you going to say?" she asked.
"Pierced." Kether shrugged.
"Good idea…"

"Hey Sands!" Penelope said.
"Ya?" Sandy answered.
"Me, & everyone else in the group is going to The Bronze (A/N: It's a club teens hang out at) tonight. Do you want to come?"
"Is Kether coming?" Sandy said before she could stop herself.
No one said anything.
"Because if he was," Sandy started to say, "I'd be surprised. Maybe we shouldn't mention it to him."
"Oh you think?" said a guy's voice behind that belonged to Kether.
Sandy did turn red. From holding her laughter! "We'll try to make it." Sandy said.
"Where are you going?" Penelope asked.
"I'm going to K-" Sandy started to say, "To kick a$$ at the new video game I have that I promised my mum I would play. And if I don't play it bye tonight, she'll take away 60 bucks."
"I'm going to go S-shopping! I'm redecorating my room!" Kether lied.
"BYE!" the two exclaimed in unison & ran off.
Sandy felt horrible about lying to her friend but Penelope was about the biggest babble fish Sandy had ever seen.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Kether pulled Sandy into his room & kissed her. "God that was hard." He commented, this time, Kylie Minogue was playing.
Sandy jumped onto his bed. "So, do you want to go out tomorrow &, you know, do the stuff we were talking about?" (I'm just trying to keep you in suspense!)
"Sure." Kether agreed.
"So, do you think we should show tonight?" Sandy asked.
"Only one of us. They'll get suspicious if we keep showing up at the same times!" Kether said, "You go."
"Why?" Sandy asked incredulously.
"Because you have friends that will notice if you're gone." Kether said, "So go."
"Kether I l-" Sandy started to say.
"KETHER!" Claudia shouted, "COME HERE!"
"I'll be back in a second." Kether said.
Sandy sighed.
Kether returned several minutes later & asked, "What is it?"
"Oh, nothing." Sandy said, kissing him.
Maybe moving to LA wasn't that bad an idea… Kether thought. But little did he know what was coming.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Sandy showed up at The Bronze an hour later. "Hey guys!" she said, waving.
"I guess Kether's not showing." Maxwell smirked.
Sandy wanted to yell 'like I wish you wouldn't' but just forced a smile. "I guess not. Do you want to dance Pash?"
"Sure." Pashmina said.
After they had all gone home Sandy called & invited Kether over since her mom wasn't going to be home till late because of a meeting at work.
"Where's Stan?" Kether asking, sitting next to Sandy on the couch & taking out a cigarette & a lighter.
"Don't smoke too many of those things or my mom will wonder why our house smells like smoke!" Sandy warned.
"You could tell her that you set the house on fire." Kether suggested.
"I think that me smoking would go over better." Sandy said.
"You?" Kether asked.
"I couldn't tell her I was still seeing you! The house on fire thing would go over better!" Sandy said.
Kether laughed. "Hey, Sandy, didn't you leave your jacket at The Bronze?" Kether asked.
"Shoot! I have to go get it." Sandy started to get up but the doorbell rang, "That must be my friends, just go up to my room & wait!" she instructed.
Kether rushed up the stairs & jumped into her bedroom right as Sandy opened the door. "Hey guys," she said.
"Sandy, you forgot your-" Kendra started to say.
"I know, my jacket! I was just about to go get it!" Sandy said.
"Well now you don't have to." Jingle said. Him & Kendra were holding hands. They were so cute together! Sandy thought. Both guitar players & singers!
"Do you want to sit down?" Sandy asked. They were her friends! It's not like she could kick them out.
Jingle went to sit down. Right where Kether had put his cigarettes. He got up & said, "What the…"
Without thinking twice she grabbed a cigarette, lit it & put it in her mouth. "Okay, you've found out my dirty little secret. I did it a week ago & I can't quit!" Sandy lied, taking a drag & coughing uncontrollably, "But it is SO unhealthy I will quit now!" she took the cigarette out of her mouth & smashed it under her foot. "But don't tell my mom! Please! I'll never do it again." Sandy begged.
"Okay," Kendra said, "We better go. And I can take this for you…" she reached for the package.
"NO!" Sandy yelled, thinking about Kether's reaction, "What I meant was, I want to be the one to throw it away! Kind of like 'Ah-ha! I have won this battle Mr. Cigarette!'" Sandy said.
"Okay… I'll see you tomorrow Sands." Kendra said.
"Ditto." Jingle said.
"And I will see you & be the same old Sandy! No more smoking for me!" she said, shutting the door behind them. And then started coughing uncontrollably again. She walked into her bedroom & collapsed on her bed, forgetting Kether was there & falling on him!
She jumped off but he pulled her back on, kissing her. But she pulled away soon after to cough again. "You heard everything, didn't you?" she asked.
"I also saw everything. It was a funny show, I couldn't help but watch!" Kether laughed.
"Fine, because now you owe me a lung!" Sandy said, throwing the cigarettes & lighter against him.
Then the two teens looked at each other & fell onto the bed laughing hysterically.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Sandy put on her black heels & her new denim mini-skirt with her cropped off the shoulder pink peasant blouse. She put on a pair of black shades & stepped out front.
As if on queue (which it was) Kether pulled up in a convertible. "Oooh! Nice car!" Sandy squealed.
"Since I haven't been picked up by the police lately my dad bought me a car." Kether said, get in.
With Beyonce Knowles' album blasting over the stereo, the young couple drove to downtown Las Angeles.
When they got there Sandy said, "Where to first?"
"We should probably save the painful stuff for last so you don't act screwy on our fun day out." Kether observed.
"Good point. So you know what we could do…" Sandy said.
"A SHOPPING SPREE!" Sandy shrieked.
"Well I need some new clothes…" Kether said.
"Where do you buy your clothes? Punk America?" Sandy asked.
"No! The store's called Rock America!" Kether said.
Sandy laughed so hard she had to hold onto Kether for breath.
Kether was wearing a black shirt & a red bowtie on the side of his collar. He had his shoulder length black hair combed back in it's usual style & was wearing eyeliner as always. He was wearing leather pants with chains on them.
"You wear more make-up then I do." Sandy said.
Kether rolled his eyes. "I don't wear make-up." He said.
"Then what's this?" Sandy asked, reaching into his pocket & pulling out black nail polish, black eyeliner, & black… lipstick? "What's with the lipstick?" Sandy asked.
"It's for special occasions alright?" Kether snapped.
"Oh my god, my boyfriend wears make-up!" Sandy wailed.
"Boyfriend?" Kether asked, raising his eyebrows.
"Yeah… that's what you are, right?" Sandy asked.
"Yeah, sure." Kether said, putting on the black lipstick.
"You said it was for special occasions." Sandy said.
"It is." Kether said, putting the make-up back in his pocket after replying.
"Then why did you just put it on?"
"You called me boyfriend."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Sandy collapsed into a chair at the mall food court. Kether was carrying six Rock coughpunkcough America bags & one Hot Topic bag & Sandy was carrying two Hot Topic ones, One Macys ones, & four Wet Seal ones.
"Oh man," Sandy said.
"Do you think you've bought enough?" Kether asked.
"You shouldn't be talking Mr. I-spend-four-hours-in-Rock-coughpunkcough-America!" Sandy said.
"It's not my fault they have a lot of cool stuff!" Kether said.
Sandy laughed & sipped her Dr. Pepper.
"Should we go do the painful stuff now?" Kether asked.
"Yeah, I guess." Sandy said.
After the finished their sodas they went over to a body-piercing store. (You might have known what Sandy was going to do all along but I don't know.)
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Kether asked.
"Yes." Sandy said, feeling of her stomach, "I'm sure."
Sandy sat down in the chair & filled out three forms.
She gripped onto the handles of the chairs when the girl was preparing the needles. "Sandy, relax." Kether said, "I've had practically every body part pierced, its ok." He said.
Sandy cringed when the girl stuck the needle through her nose but got all three piercings done with no major trauma.
"Are you okay?" Kether asked, putting his arms around her.
"It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be." Sandy said.
Kether nudged her playfully. "Told you so." He whispered in her ear.
"Is she your girlfriend?" a guy asked as they walked out of the store.
"Yeah, why?" Kether said.
"She's pretty."
"Thanks." Kether & Sandy said simultaneously.
"Where can I get my tattoo?" Sandy asked.
"Over there." Kether said.
Once Sandy had finished more forms the person doing it suggested that she held onto Kether's hand while having it done. "Sandy," Kether said, "I won't lie to you. This hurts."
"How do you…?" Sandy started to ask.
Kether pulled up both sleeves & she saw both arms were tattooed.
"Oh okay." Sandy said.
Sandy would squeeze Kether's hand hard when needles went in her but after several hours, both tattoos were done.
"They look good on you." Said the guy who had done it.
"Thanks." Sandy said, "Can I see?"
Kether held a mirror for her to look. Sandy had a large butterfly on the top of her back in-between her shoulders & she had a heart with a thorn wrapped her around it right above her butt.
"I love it." Sandy admitted.
"Come on," Kether said, "We should get home."
The two teens drove back to Sandy's house but Sandy, exhausted from her trip fell asleep in the car. When they pulled into the driveway, Kether kissed Sandy's check sleepily, leaving a black mark there from the lipstick, & fell asleep also, with his head resting on her shoulder.
"Sleep now," Maxwell, who was walking by on the sidewalk, said evilly, "But you are in for a world of hurt."
