Sam..Elizabeth was in total shock..She had gotten close to a guy to forget Sam..but..here he was..Could it be..fate?Sam spoke,shocking Elizabeth out of her thoughts, "god.Wakefield.Are you really that desperate?" He asked. "I told you.It's over." He bolted. Leaving Elizabeth standing and staring at the spot he had been sitting moments before.

Sam Burgess

Would anybody just tell me what happened back there?Why was Elizabeth where someone else was supposed to be? Doesn't Liz get that its over? What more is there to it? She and her nutty sister pulled some kind of wacko stunt on me. Then she bails and leaves the country, leaving me there. And she accuses me of cheating on her with her nutter of a sister.

What Jessica did was LOW. Very LOW. So she thinks I'm not good enough for her sister? She's probably right. Elizabeth is the type of girl who needs a Tom Watts or Todd Wilkins, straight As, model students, that kinda crap. She's too good for a SLACKER like me.

Am I really a slacker? I have that whole producing thing...I suppose I'll never really be good enough for her anyway..Just like the old man... I'll never be good enough for him too. This is McDermott's fault anyway, he's the one that forced me into this weird business.

Never trust a guy who lives with a gorgeous girl with nothing happening between them. But Marinda is kind of an air-head... Unlike Elizabeth... Would I stop thinking about that girl already??

I've gotta escape her...and all her messed up stuff. ~*~

Amaryllis tied her long hair back. She was meeting Conner today. He was the owner of the house she and Marinda were staying in.

So far she hadn't been able to see him, in the mornings,she was always out looking for a job,and at night, she always went straight to bed.

But yesterday,she had totally lucked out. When she visited a boutique to see if they were hiring, a magazine owner had seen her and begged her to model for them, it was an easy five hundred dollars.

The door to the kitchen opened and a yawning guy stepped through. "So, this is Amaryllis, huh?" he said, not yet looking at her.

When he did though,he smiled, Amaryllis couldn't help noticing that he was totally gorgeous.

She smiled at him,and her face turned slightly red.

Gorgeous or no gorgeous,this guy was kind of a slob. He was wearing only torn boxer shorts and a wrinkled grey T-shirt.

He looked down. "Oh." He grinned slyly. "I'll go change into something not so uncomfortable for you."

~*~

Conner wanted to hit himself. 'Nice going McDermott.'He said mentally, 'meet a beautiful girl, and give her the impression that you're a total slob.'

Amaryllis was defintely beautiful. Marinda was pretty, blond hair and all, but she didn't really seem to have that much grey matter under that blond head of hers.

He didn't really know this girl well,but she seemed hard working enough.She went out early every single day to look for a job.

According to Marinda,she had finally found one yesterday. She was going to model.

That would definitely be a good thing. She was incredible.

~*~

Sam burst into the kitchen. "McDermott!I'm going to kill you!"He roared.Marinda wasn't home anyway.

Just then he noticed an amazingly pretty girl looking at him, "you're looking for Conner?" she asked.

He nodded sheepishly.

"Well,I don't know whether I should really tell you if you're planning to kill him." She grinned.

He grinned back, "I'm Sam Burgess."

"Amaryllis."

"Great to meet you."

"Same here."

"Well Sam, is this a daily routine?" She asked.

He shook his head, blushing slightly.

"That's too bad.Because if it is, I won't mind." She joked. "It's very refreshing to hear loud sounds early in the morning, I think you shocked me out of my sleep." She smiled.

~*~

Alex wanted to hit himself.It would be HIS birthday in a week.And somehow,he'd made plans with his family and with Jessica.In actual fact,he'd rather spend his birthday with Jessica,but his family expected him to be there.

Maybe he could tell her he got the wrong date..But that wouldn't sound right..How could a person forget their own birthday?

Nor,did he want her to meet his family.His stuck-up parents would probably hate her.

Jessica was like a breath of fresh air to him.

She was beautiful and funny..And a free spirit.

His family would want him to be with a girl who's parents were richer than rich,and was like a doll.

Seen,but never heard.

He'd always listened to his parents,he'd even dated Claudia,a nice,but very boring girl.She was his parents ideal daughter-in-law.

She was pretty, no doubt about that, she had dark brown hair and light,sky blue eyes.

She hardly seemed to talk at all and there was zero chemistry between them.

But he had dated her for several years,to make his parents happy.

They'd even asked him to propose to her!When he heard that,he fled to Sweet Valley,and transferred to Stanford.

He told his parents that he wasn't ready,and wanted to attend Stanford instead of Princeton, because he felt it offered a better education.

Suprisingly,his parents ate it all up.

Maybe they just didn't want to admit that their son was shirking his responsibility by marrying some girl he barely knew.

Now what would he do?

Tell his parents about Jessica? No.

Claudia consitently sent annoying letters about how she missed him,as if he had left for war.

And the letters were totally devoid of any real emotion.

She'd ask how he was doing,say that she missed him and that things were perfect back home.

Somehow,he had a hard time believing her.

He knew his sister was still fighting with his parents.That was definite.

His sister from time to time would send him e-mails.

It seemed that the fighting going on back home was horrible.

She'd moved out and was living by hereself.

Well,he'd have to face it sooner or later.

He sighed.

Alexander Apollonios Vitus was going home.

~*~

Jessica was shopping.

Well,there was nothing wrong with her shopping,except,her thoughts, 'I never thought I'd see a day where I would be so in love.." Jessica thought blissfully.

Jessica was in love. Alex was the best thing that ever happened to her.

He was sweet,gentle,loving and ...perfect.

She got butterflies in her stomache while thinking of him.

And when he touched her, tingles ran up her spine.

It was his birthday in a week,and she was shopping for the perfect dress,and the perfect present.

After all,it wasn't everyday a guy turned twenty-one.

She stopped when she saw it. It was the perfect dress.

It was long,up to her ankles,it would look perfect with a pair of high heel shoes.

It was made of red lycra,it would show off her figure perfectly.

She had to buy it.

She stepped into the store and checked the price tag,trying not to faint.

The dress cost more than her car!

Jessica spent a long time brooding on whether or not to buy the dress.

'Looks like I'll have to get Liz to pitch in.' she thought.

Elizabeth Wakefield

Am I really over Sam? Am I even supposed to be over him? I've been asking myself these questions over and over again.

Sure,it was suprising to see him.After all the tension in the house and all.

But does this mean we're fated to be together?I wouldn't really mind.

I mean,lets just be honest.I'm pretty sure I still love Sam.

In fact,I always will.He's a part of me.Like everybody else I've ever loved.

But do I LOVE him?And does he still feel anything other than hate for me?

Sam Burgess

Reasons to forgive Elizabeth

1)She's pretty. It's undeniable.
2)She's as smart as she is pretty.
3)She's got spunk.
4)It was more her sister's fault.
5)I can't stop thinking about her.
6)I love her.

Reasons NOT to forgive Elizabeth

1)The lack of faith in me.
2)She ran of to ENGLAND
3)I would NEVER go for her replusive sister.How could she think that??
4)It hurt that she thought I would do that to her.
5)I love her.

I can't believe I'm even considering this.I should be going out with that new girl in Conner's house, Amaryllis.She's way cool.

~*~

Amaryllis

Is it okay to go out with your landlord? I want to know,'cuz Conner asked me out.And I said, "Yes."

I'm not sure why I did it. I mean, Spike IS back home..and even though we did break up,should I be going out with another guy this soon?
