Ok, guys, I'm really glad you forgave me!:) I know, but I forgot about the authors note stuff. Plus, I think I wanted the others who saw that chapter to know I didn't mean that. So: Here is the next chapter:
Archie knocked on Theresa's door and waited. There was some shuffling and a thump, then Theresa appeared, looking tired. "Yeah?" She asked, looked at her closely. She had circles under her eyes. "Archie?" Theresa asked. Archie shook his head. "Uh, I wanted to tell you something. Can I come in?" Theresa nodded wearily. She moved and Archie walked in awkwardly.
"Here. Sit." Theresa said, gesturing to a chair that was sitting there.
Archie plopped down. "Theresa, I need your help." He sad.
Theresa knew all this already. It was the same thing Atlanta had said. Then she smiled. "I know you do." She said.
Archie scowled. "I have got to stop putting my words like that!" He said. Theresa laughed.
"With Atlanta?" She asked softly. Archie looked at her, surprised.
"Yeah." He said. "How did you know that?" He asked.
"Oh, a little birdie told me." She said, smiling. "You like her, right?" She asked.
Archie nodded. "I don't know how to tell her." He told Theresa.
The truth was, Archie really did like Atlanta. He loved her face, her eyes, and everything about her. But he couldn't tell At that. He smiled. He once called her At, and she told him if he ever called her that again, he would be in the hospital for two weeks. He never did dare call her that again.
"Archie, you really should tell her. She likes you, ya'know." Theresa told him, still smiling. Archie looked at her. "Really?" He asked.
Theresa nodded. "I saw her face as she said it, she really likes you." Archie didn't know how to take this.
Then he realized she must've been faking it to make Theresa believe she really liked him. He must've looked like he didn't believe it, because Theresa said: "Really, Archie. I've seen how she looks at you. I could see it from the moment you two met." Archie looked at her. And for the first time, Archie began to see hope.
Atlanta knocked on Jay's door. He answered it. "Yeah?" "I have something to tell you..." She walked in and explained everything, all her feeling, just like she knew Archie was over in Theresa's room.
Ok, guys, I just thought I should tell you: I'm known for updating not very often. So for me to have updated three days in a row, that's a rare moment! I'm also known for making really short chapters, so eight hundred words is good for me, lol. Also, I can't type, so I have to use one hand.
Please, please check out my other stories. Have you guys read PJO? What did you think of the cliffy at MoA?
Now, I know this chapter is short. I'm sorry. I have to update my other six stories, so I might not get to this one for a while. I'll try to update again this week, if we're lucky. For some reason, these chapter came easy-Most of the time. I write for the 39 Clues, PJO and the Kane Chronicles. I have just updated my Tratie (Travis/Katie) story for PJO, and there was a kiss!
HG and LMI, I moved the speaking lines like you wanted. I figured I'd rather have people reading this story than have it my way and make you mad. Is this better?
One last thing: Please review and spread word of this story, if you can! And any mistakes I made, please let me know! :)
BYE!
