Chapter 3: Come To Gabi's. Please?

Gabi looked at Ryan's puzzled face. "Uhm…Nevermind, Ryan," she said, then glanced at Rose and Ryan. "Would…would you two like to come in?"

"Sure," Rose and Ryan said in unison.

Gabi led them both inside, to the living room, and she sat down. She put the mail on the table at looked down.

"I'm gonna go to the potty-I mean, bathroom," Ryan said, blushing very lightly. Rose laughed a bit and Gabi just shook her head, laughing on the inside.

Ryan went into the bathroom, and looked in the mirror. "I do not like this hat!" He said quietly. He adjusted the purple hat so it wouldn't fall off, and he took out his phone. First, he called Troy. "Troy? Hey, it's Ryan."

"Oh, hey Ryan," Troy responded, not expecting to hear from Ryan. "What's up?"

"I'm at Gabi's. Come over. She seems like she needs some company."

"Okay…," Troy said, picking up his car keys, which could be heard over the phone. "Call Kelsi. Invite her."

"Okay. See you in a few minutes." Ryan hung up, and called Kelsi. "Hey, Kelsi. It's Ryan."

"Hi, Ryan," Kelsi greeted cheerfully. Her fingers slipped, and hit a few keys on her piano. "Oops! Sorry, Ryan."

Ryan chuckled lightly. "That's alright." He paused. "Hey, come over to Gabriella's. She seems like she needs some company. Call Taylor, and invite her."

"Okay. See you after a few." Kelsi hung up.

A knock came to the bathroom door. "Ryan?" A soft and sweet voice came through the door. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, Gabi."

"You didn't drop your hat in the toilet, did you?" She joked lightly.

"No. Of cour-," Ryan leaned over the toilet to get to the door, and his hat fell in. "Shit."

"Don't jinx yourself," Gabi said, then disappeared.

Ryan pulled his hat out of the toilet, and grabbed a towel. He dried his hat off, and pulled out his phone again. He called Chad.

"Hello?" Chad's voice said.

"Hey, Chad. It's Ryan, you know, the Ice Queen's brother?" Ryan said, more joke than anything.

"Oh yeah…I think I know who you are…You're the one who wears the goofy hats, right?"

Ryan gritted his teeth. "Yes, afro-man." Ryan said.

At this, Chad gritted his teeth. "What do you want?"

"Come to Gabi's. She's lonely. I've invited Troy, Kelsi, and Kelsi's inviting Taylor."

"Fine. Bye."

"By-," Chad had hung up before Ryan could finish his sentence. He grabbed his moist hat, and put it on. He left the bathroom just in time to hear the doorbell ring.
