TiffanyPhantom: Sorry it took so long with this chapter, we got a little distracted while writing it.
Hey Tom!"
Tom turned to see Ally walking towards him and taking a seat next to him. He smiled at her.
"Hey...Ally..."
Everyone rolled their eyes, after all, love made everyone do stupid things. But they had already seen the effect it had on Tom last night.
"So um...happy valentines day." Tom muttered, not taking his eyes off her.
"Yeah...sure...happy valentines day." Ally smiled. Tiffany rolled her eyes and dug into her breakfast. Hui Hua and Sky chuckled softly.
"So how are you feeling today?" asked Ally in a concerned tone.
"I feel like I was hit by a semi." Tom stated with obvious truth behind his words.
Ally got a glint in her eyes that didn't go unnoticed. "Here, let me make it all better." she said as she leaned towards Tom and kissed him. The kiss then turned into a make-out session with everyone watching.
"UGH! Remind me never to become a hormonal teenager." said Hui Hua in a disgusted tone.
"Too late. You already are one." Danny told her earning a slap on the head
"It's official, I don't understand the fine art of dating." said Tiffany.
Jake smirked "And you never will."
Tom and Ally finally broke out of their make-out session.
"Better?" asked Ally
Tom had a glint in his eyes this time. "Hmmm... I can't tell. Let's try that again." Tom said as he moved in and started making out with Ally again.
They stopped immediately, as they heard a gagging noise in the background. As they turned to their friends, they could see all their horribly
disturbed expressions. Except for…
"AWW!" Deododakes and Insane exclaimed.
"So is this going in the photo album?" Insane asked, snapping a picture of them.
"Or is this gonna go in the 'precious moments' section in your diaries?" Dedodakes asked, pulling out a pen and paper. "I'll help!"
"Um...guys..." Ally started.
"I know, we can just skip right to the wedding!" Insane yelled.
"I'll get the cake!" Dedodakes shouted.
"I'll get the bridesmaids!" Insane exclaimed.
"GUYS! It's alright, Tom and I were just thinking of going out for a while." Ally told them.
"...Aww..." Insane and Dedodakes muttered.
"If you guys wanna live long enough to get your learner's permit, you'll drop the marriage talk!" Tom growled.
"Sadistic jerk." Insane grumbled.
Tom's face brightened. "Why thank you!" he said with a false smile, his voice coated with sarcasm.
"Hey, guys, listen to this..." Tiffany told the gang.
"What's going on?" Ali asked.
"Jake and Sky are gonna be together for a while, we're not sure how long..." Tiffany told them.
"But hold on a second - aren't you upset about Jake leaving as well?" Danny asked.
"Well...yeah...more than...but that's not the point!" Tiffany said. "The point is..."
"Your hair's a dead giveaway?" Hui Hua quoted 'Meet the Robinsons'.
"NO! The point is we have to find some way to give them the time of their lives, and to give Tom and Ally one perfect date." Tiffany said.
"I don't know, we aren't exactly matchmakers extraordinaire." Dixon told her.
"Look, Jake's my angel of light and Sky's one of my best friends. I want to do this for them." Tiffany told the gang, who smirked.
"No problem." Danny said.
"What are you guys talking about?" Tom asked, coming up to his friends. They all looked at him with unnaturally innocent smiles.
"Tom, Ally, come on. We got something to show you." Dixon and Hui Hua said as they pushed them out of the restaurant.
"JAKE, SKY! COME ON COME ON!" Cubby exclaimed as he chased them out as well. Everyone else smiled after seeing how well the distraction worked.
"Fine, I'll go. Just let me do something up in the suite." Tom said once again clutching his aching head.
Dixon and Hui Hua looked at each other before saying "Okay, but we're coming with you."
"Fine. Ally, you can come too." Tom said as they headed for the elevator in the hotel.
They reached Tom/Danny's room (A/N not like that you pervs!) a few minutes later. Ally, Dixon, and Hui Hua watched as Tom bolted for his suitcase and pulled out a bottle of red pills. He went into the kitchen and grabbed a soda before taking a swing of the drink and popping two of the pills in his mouth.
"They're prescription pills to help get rid of a hangover. Unfortunately, alcoholism runs in my family on my mother's side." Tom explained
Ally snickered before saying "Is your mom Irish?"
Tom blushed before muttering "Yes."
Ally, Dixon and Hui Hua burst out laughing that Tom's mom fit the Irish stereotype much to Tom's embarrassment.
"It's not funny. My mom was able to quit drinking and stay sober for 23 years before she picked up a bottle again. She's been more in control of her drinking, but it's still a big problem to my family." Tom said trying to get them to stop laughing.
"Wow dude, your family's messed up" Dixon said
"Don't remind me." Tom muttered, sorrow edging its way into his voice.
"Aww, Tom...you know you're gonna have your friends around you no matter what, right?" Ally asked him, he turned to her.
"Ally, they're my family. I have to deal with them no matter what. It's just so painful to live with someone that you find annoying." Tom told them.
"Tell me about it." Dixon said, glaring at Cubby
"And besides," Tom said grimly, "friends can't replace family, no matter how messed up or insane that family is."
"Tom, your family isn't insane. They're just 'out there'." Ally cooed, trying to make him feel better about his dysfunctional family.
"Now what was it you two wanted to show us?" Tom asked, now staring at Dixon and Hui Hua
"Right this way." said Hui Hua as she led the way.
They were all lead out of the hotel and to the beach, they looked around confused. Tom opened his mouth to talk to Dixon and Hui Hua, who just shushed them.
"What are we doing here?" Jake whispered to Sky, who just shrugged. Ali's head popped up from the water in the distance, watching her friends.
"Alright guys, go." Ali whispered to the water, and then it started to move out towards the sea.
"Hey - look!" Ally exclaimed as she watched two dolphins catapult out of the water, followed by two killer whales. The four animals put on an amazing show for those who were watching.
"Awesome..." Tom muttered.
"And that's only the beginning." Hui Hua grinned.
"You mean there's more of this torture?" Tom said sarcastically. Ali glared at Tom before realizing his potent sarcasm.
"You know, one of these days, that sarcasm will get you killed." Ally whispered into Tom's ear.
Tom just chuckled and whispered back "What do you think I'm trying to do?" with sarcasm again evident in his voice. Ally just rolled her eyes. 'This isn't my idea of a great date, but whatever' Tom thought just as he realized they were distracting him. 'Oh well. They must have a good reason.'
