Chapter 16: Bad News

The next week, Matt and the band got onto the plane for their first concert. For Caleb and Eric, it was exciting to go up north more exciting for Caleb then Eric but still, they are excited. For Matt however, it was as exciting as getting the chickenpox. Of all the places he had to return to and it had to be near his collage which meant he would most likely see Mindy there. For him, this would be a nightmare and both he and Will knew it. Of all the times that he would be to far from Will and it had to be now. Matt knew he had to do this though. He has his band, he needed a good job so that Will wouldn't have to work if she didn't want to, this is something that he has always wanted, and he had to think of his future with Will. So to him, the pluses outweighed the negatives by a long shot but still, Mindy isn't a person that he wanted to see. The three waved goodbye to everyone and got on the plane.

From outside Will could only think of one thing and that thing is Mindy. She felt bad for Matt since he may end up seeing her again but she wasn't about to ruin this gig that the three got because of some girl. Will could do one thing and think positive. 'He may not even see her.' Will kept waving even though the three had gotten onto the plane already and so they couldn't see each other.

When the Plane started moving, Eric and Caleb could see Matt thinking and didn't bother him. Matt being in a deep thought about the weekend but mostly about Mindy. When he first got into collage, Mindy had been a pain but he never really hated her before.

Flashback

Matt walked into the collage and looked around for his class. He still had another three hours but he never wanted to be late and so he memorized where all his classes were. He had been looking around for a while when he bumped into Mindy. "Look where your go-ing. I'm so sorry." Mindy started off cruel but calmed down when she saw Matt.

"It's alright; it's partly my fault to." Matt apologized.

"No it's not; I was the one that wasn't looking." Matt finally got up off the ground and got a good look at Mindy though he didn't know her at that time. She is dressed very poorly to say the least. She had been wearing super short shorts and her shirt is extremely tight, not to mention that it revealed way too much, and her bra was showing. Matt wanted to look away but he didn't want to be rude and so he looked at her face directly. "Hi, I'm Mindy."

"I'm Matt." Matt was about to continue when she moved closer to him.

"So you want to go out sometime Matt?" Mindy asked seductively making Matt uncomfortable.

"I have a girlfriend, so thanks but no thanks." Matt said as mean but also as gently as possible which was very hard to do.

"Forget her and let's go. She won't ever know."

End Flashback

Matt was shaken out of his thoughts by the pilot. Then another thought popped into his head.

Flashback

Mindy came up Matt nicely and asked him if he could sign this petition for the animal shelter. The old shelter nearby was being threatened to be torn down and Matt did want to help. "Sure Mindy, I'll sign." Matt grabbed the pin and signed the petition.

End Flashback

'And to think that that was the only nice thing she has ever done.' Matt thought and then turned his attention to his band.

Back in Heatherfield, the girls had all planned on goingto the water park ever since they found that the boys wouldn't be at home. After dropping the boys off at the airport, the girls went straight to the water park. When they arrived, they changed and split up, sort of. Will and Irma went to the biggest slide there and the other three went to the second biggest slide. Irma and Will almost reached the top of the rollercoaster like slide and Will spoke up. "Hey Irma, you want to speed the ride up?"

'Yes I would like to but I'm not going to. I'm surprised you would even ask miss responsibility.' Irma thought to Will as she went down.

'I'm surprised you're not up for it miss fun all the time.' Will shot back.

'Touché.' Irma thought.

The other three had reached the top of their slide when Taranee asked a question. "Hay Lin, you want to speed up the slide a bit." Taranee got a shocked look from Cornelia but got no reaction from Hay Lin. "Hay Lin, hello; Earth to Hay Lin." Taranee said to the air guardian.

Hay Lin shot back to Taranee. "Shush." Hay Lin held her hand to her ear before she got on to the slide and so she let other go before them.

In the distance, two people were whispering. "Nerissa, be paitiant. We can't get to them right now even if we wanted to."

"Phobos, let's just grab them and make a scene. I could care less about what they do, I just want the guardians dead." Nerissa complained.

"Oh yes Nerissa, let's make a scene, expose ourselves to the guardians, or even better, get the cops on us and let the news get around letting the girls families know letting the leader guardians husband figure it out and your son as well which will let my sister get involved." Phobos whispered without taking a pause. "One wrong move Nerissa and everything falls apart. The guardians have to many allies and though most are weak, the guardians, your son and my sister are more then we can handle. We can't rush in as much as I would like to. I have learned a lot and rushing in won't do us any good."

Back with the three guardians, Hay Lin turned to Taranee and Cornelia. "Girls, let's get off the slide, we need to get to Will." Before the others could even protest, Hay Lin was already halfway through the crowd.

Will and Irma had just got t the snack bar for a drink when Hay Lin came rushing up to them with Taranee and Cornelia ten feet behind her. "Hay Lin, what's the rush?" Will asked.

After catching her breath, Hay Lin spoke up. "Will, Phobos and Nerissa are here and they are looking for us." Hay Lin said getting a small pause and then a laugh from Will. "Will, I'm not joking about this. They are out to kill you Will as well as us and this time Phobos is playing it smart. They are trying to get us alone so they can pick us off one by one without giving themselves away." Hay Lin said unhappy that Will laughed at her before.

"Ok, we take a back way home and we stay together. For now however, let's enjoy ourselves and meet back here when we are ready to leave." Everyone nodded and went there separate ways and Will apologized to Hay Lin.

That night in the northern part of the state, Matt and the band had just finished playing and got backstage. Matt is relieved to be back here because Mindy won't be and he never did see her so being backstage is a bonus. He had just entered his dressing room and saw someone sitting in his chair. "Hello?" Matt then wished he hadn't said anything or even entered his dressing room.

"Matt Olson, long time no see." Mindy said with a smile.

"Mindy, what are you doing here?" Matt asked trying to sound happy but failed.

Mindy ignored the tone in his voice and smiled. "So Matt, how are you?

"I'm happily married so now you can't get to me so you may as well leave unless your just here for an autograph." Matt said smugly but it quickly went away when he saw Mindy smile evily.

"Then I think it's time to show you this." Mindy pulled out a piece of paper and gave it to Matt to read. "I got this signature from you when you supposedly signed the animal shelter petition."

Matt took the paper and started reading. 'I Matt Olson agree that if I am married and I am not going to be having a child or had child before reading this I am to be divorced and married to Mindy Johnson. If I don't agree to this, I am to be put to death.'

"This can't be legal Mindy." Matt yelled as he shoved the paper back in her arms.

"True, this would never have become legal but I had some tricks up my sleeve and so therefore it is legal." Mindy said smiling. "You now belong to me Matt Olson."

A/N: So I hope that these last two chapters could make up for the wait. Thanks for the reviews and please continue to review and read.
