A/N: Helloooo peoples! Sorry I'm hyper, I had too much soda! Five cups. All today. LOL, so here's your chapter nine! And this plot (for the next few chapters) was the idea of Capybara! So thank you to him, & thank you to Stitch Phantom for letting me use Shadow! And Kether will be back in a few chapters so don't worry. Also, in this fic, Maxwell's not mental. He's EVIL! Maxwell is seriously evil but you'll just have to wait to the end of this fic to see that. Also, I will probably finish this fic soon so look for updates because there will be a lot so I might not update my other fics. Now after my ridiculous long author's note, on with the story!
Disclaimer: Well, not quite yet.Stitch owns Shadow, & someone owns Hamtaro. I own Kether, Mike, & Amanda & any other O.Cs in this story. NOW on with the story!
Behind The Eyes Of A Juvenile Delinquent by Laura Amanda McConnell
Chapter Nine: The Trouble with Love is…
"Amanda, we heard you the first fifty times!" Sandy said.
Amanda had surely fulfilled her promise to tell Sandy & Pashmina everything about her date. Fifty times.
"And I have another date tomorrow." She said.
"YOU WHAT?" Pashmina yelled.
"Oh, so now I'm interesting!" Amanda asked. Well more really said. Actually… YOU GET THE POINT!
"No way" Sandy shrieked excitedly.
"Why," said Mike's voice from behind Sandy, "Do you always do that when I'm around?"
The three girls laughed. "You lucky I guess." Pashmina smirked.
"So, what's the shriek worthy news?" Mike asked.
"Amanda's got a second date tomorrow!' Pashmina squealed, hugging Amanda.
Mike dropped his Dr. Pepper.
"What?" he asked.
"What's wrong Michel?" Amanda asked, knowing he detested being called by his full name.
"It's Mike, Laura." He answered, knowing she hated being called by her first name.
Amanda rolled her eyes. "Yeah, I have another date tomorrow. And it's Amanda, Mike. Say it with me. A-MAN-DA."
"I would have thought he would have taken one look at you & ran screaming." Mike said.
"Shut up." Amanda, Pashmina, & Sandy all said at the same time.
"They're perfect for each other." Pashmina said, "Just like you & Kether are perfect for each other, Sands."
Sandy was about to answer when she saw Shadow walking down the sidewalk. "Hey guys, I'll be back in a minute, alright?" She didn't wait for an answer & ran to catch up with him.
"HEY! SHADOW!" she yelled.
Ooooohhh...
Oooohhhh ya
Mmmmm
He stopped when he heard his name, wondering who it could possibly be. She ran up next to him. "It's Sandy," she said, out of breath.
Shadow removed his sunglasses & looked at her, realizing how hot she was. It was hard to tell how hot someone was when they have blood dripping off of them!
She was wearing long jeans (like past her feet) with slits on each leg on the bottom, (the slits only came up a little above the ankle) a turtleneck long-sleeved tight red sweater, & a pair of red converse. She had her hair straightened & around her face. Her emerald eyes seemed to sparkle.
Love can be a many splendid
thing
Has another joy you bring
A dozen roses
Diamond
rings
Dreams for sale
And fairy tales
It'll make you hear a
symphony
And you'll just want the world to see
But like a drunk
that makes you blind
It'll fool you every time
He was so busy staring at her that he walked into a tree.
"Oh my god, Shadow! Are you okay?" Sandy asked, rushing to his side.
"Yeah," he said, snapping back to earth, "I'm fine."
Sandy giggled. "What were you looking at anyway?"
"Yo-that… um… dog!" Shadow said.
The trouble with love is
It can
tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
Gets stronger
then your pride
The trouble with love is
It doesn't care how
fast you fall
And you can't refuse the call
See you've got no
say at all
Sandy turned around & looked.
"What dog?" she asked.
"It's gone now." Shadow said.
"Oookay…" Sandy said slowly.
'Great,' Shadow thought, 'Now Sandy thinks I'm an idiot. Wait, why do I care?'
"Shaaadow? Earth to Shadow!" Sandy said, waving her hand in front of his face, causing him to plummet back into reality. "Man, your sure spacing off a lot."
Now I was just a once a fool it's
true
I played the game by all the rules
But now my world's a
deeper blue
I'm sadder but I'm wiser too
I swore I'd never love
again
I swore my heart would never mend
Said love wasn't worth
the pain
But then I hear it call my name
"Sorry." He said, "Hey, why are you talking to me?"
"Well, you did save my eyes." Sandy said.
"Yeah, your beautiful eyes." Shadow said without thinking.
Sandy blushed furiously & so did Shadow after he realized what he just said. "T-t-thanks." Sandy stuttered.
'Peachy.' Shadow thought, 'I like some girl that has this boyfriend that's in New York for the summer. God, I'm going to kill myself or this boyfriend. But she has such pretty eyes. Wait! Snap out of it Shadow! Snap, snap, snap, SNAP!'
The trouble with love is
It can
tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
Gets stronger
then your pride
The trouble with love is
It doesn't care how
fast you fall
And you can't refuse the call
See you've got no
say at all
"So, uh, how's your boyfriend?" Shadow asked.
"Kether? He's fine." Sandy said, "Do you want to see a picture?"
"Sure." Shadow said. 'Might as well know what the compition looks like. Wait, the what? I do not like Sandy!' Shadow though.
Sandy pulled out a wallet & showed him a picture of her & Kether laying on her bed in their pajamas, eating popcorn & watching a horror movie, The Hills Have Eyes. She had her legs over him & was showing her affection blatantly. Not as bad as Pashmina though.
"Not bad." Shadow said.
"Thanks." Sandy said, "Your not 'bad' either." She added without thinking.
The two both blushed immediately. "I have to go!" Shadow stuttered, running off.
Every time I turn around
I think
I've got it all
My heart keeps callin
And I keep on fallin
Over
and over again
This set story always ends the same
Me standin
in the pouring rain
It seems no matter what I do
It tears my
heart in two
"See you later?" Sandy asked. She got no response. She sat down on a bench & cried. "Way to go Sandy!" she sobbed, "I just screwed things up!" She sobbed uncontrollably causing several onlookers to stop & gawk. She didn't care.
The trouble with love is (the
trouble with love)
It can tear you up inside (it can tear you up
in side)
Make your heart believe a lie (Make your heart believe a
lie)
Gets stronger then your pride
(The trouble with love is)
See your heart its in your soul
(It doesn't care how fast you
fall) You wont remember control (?)
(And you can't refuse the
call)
See you've got no say at all
The trouble with love is
(Oooo...ya)
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe
a lie (the trouble with love..)
"I see… a possible new love. Well look out Shadow, your fate looks grim!" said… Maxwell who was walking past casually.

Sandy walked walking in the mall with Amanda the next day thinking about Shadow when Sandy's rang.
"Hey darling," Sandy said once she found out it was Kether, "What's up?"
"Are you talking to your boyfriend?" Amanda teased her.
"Yes, Mrs. Billie Joe Armstrong." Sandy shot back.
Amanda blushed & shut up.
"Hey," Kether said to Sandy, "Has some hot guy came & swept you off your feet while I've been gone?"
Sandy thought about Shadow & answered, "Hot? Have you gone & turned gay while you've been gone?"
"Answering a question with a question, are you luv?" Kether asked.
Sandy rolled her eyes.
"So what are you doing now?" Kether asked.
"I'm at the mall with Amanda, didn't you hear us?" Sandy asked.
"No, & luv, when aren't you at the mall?" Kether asked.
"Lots of times!"
"Name one."
"There was, uh, that time when… uh… well I was… no never mind… uh…" Sandy tried but then saw Shadow walking towards her, "Hey Kether, I have to go. Bye." She hung up.
"Hey Sandy," Shadow said, "I just wanted to apologize…"
"Yeah, me too." Sandy said, stepping closer to him.
"Oooh! You have two hot boyfriends!" Amanda said, "Maybe I should get a second boyfriend. Gerard Way wouldn't be that bad…"
"AMANDA! SHUT UP!" Sandy yelled.
"Yeah!" Shadow agreed, "Really Amanda. Shut up!"
Amanda just smiled & continued looking through the racks of lingerie.
"Shadow?"
"Yeah?"
"Why are you in Victoria's Secret & why are you buying that frilly nightgown?" Sandy asked.
Shadow blushed. "My sister's birthday is coming up & my mom asked me to pick it up…" he said, "But I'm sorry about yesterday."
"No." Sandy said, "I am." She moved her face close to his.
"Really… I shouldn't have…" he moved closer to her when…
"EWWWWW!" Sandy exclaimed.
"What?" Shadow asked.
"A clown." Sandy said, gripping Shadow's hand, "I'm afraid of clowns."
Shadow blushed but Sandy was too busy watching the clown to notice. "Make sure it doesn't see Me." she whispered.
"Sure." Shadow said, "Look, I'll call you later, okay?"
"Alright, here's my phone number. It's my cell phone so I'll pick it up." Sandy said.
After rejoining Amanda she asked, "Who was that?"
"Shadow Strider." Sandy answered.

"Hey Sandy," Stan said, "Which outfit do you think I should wear for me & Pashy's date?"
"DON'T. TALK. ABOUT. LOVE!" Sandy yelled, whacking her brother repeatedly with a pillow.
"Owwww!" Stan moaned.
"You wouldn't understand." Sandy said, sitting down on her bed.
"Try me." Stan said.
Sandy didn't have time to answer for at that moment Pashmina, who was tired of waiting, came upstairs & backed Stan against the wall & kissed him, wrapping her arms around him. Even though Stan slid his hand up her skirt, Sandy was glad to have a diversion. But still, couldn't they do that in other room. Sandy threw a pillow at them. "QUIT INFECTING MY ROOM WITH YOUR HORNY-NESS DISEASE!" she yelled.
When Stan was finally dressed the two left for their date. "Hey Pashmina, did something happen to Sandy recently? Any guys she likes or something?" he asked.
"No…" Pashmina said, "Well, there's Shadow Strider."
