Chapter 5: Hawaiian Pizza

Amanda

She stared into the rectangular picture frame that held one of her most cherished memories. They were all at the beach in California, a trip that Amanda, Mike, and Owen had begged their parents to let them go along. Now Mike's dad was very good with the idea and allowed him to go on the trip, Owen's mom on the other hand… not so much.

Amanda let out a little sigh, just small enough to hear. How she loved this picture. She had worn a cherry red tank top with a pair of shorts on, while Mike had on similar beach attire. A navy shirt with a pair of shorts, his aviator shades, and not to mention his signature necklace. Amanda loved to make fun of the pair of aviators Mike wouldn't dream of parting with. This picture ended up showing a scene of the two, both body's down in the sand with both of their heads propped up smiling into the camera. Now, Owen was furious that his mother didn't allow him to go. That didn't stop her from going to the beach! She just so happened to have been taking the photo! Amanda let out a laugh remembering how angry Owen had been when they got back.

"RING, RING, RING!" Went the annoying ringtone if the Blonde's cell phone.

"Its 11:30 at night, who would be calling me now? " She asked herself.

She glanced down at her cell phone, the screen showed MIKE FUKANAGA.

She grinned. "Of course it's Mike."

Amanda clicked down on the green receive call button.

"Hello?"

"Um… hey Amanda, what's up?" He asked in a stutter.

"Not much Mike, just riding my bike!" She said sarcastically.

If Mike was going to call so late, she was at least going to have a little bit of fun with him!

"Riding your bike? Ha, oh! Yeah your probably a little pissed I called so late right!" He chuckled.

"Nah, but why are you calling so late Mike?"

She listened to the silence on the other side of the phone. Normally when Mike called Owen would be blurting out things into the receiver of his phone, but this wasn't the case. It actually appeared to be very quiet at Mike's house.

"Um… Amanda, I was just uhh… wondering if you !"

"Wait what did you say Mike? All I heard was a bunch of mumbling and maybe the word pizza?" Amanda questioned.

She heard him let out a sigh on the other end of the phone. "The reason I was up so late and decided to call you is because, I was wondering if you wanted to go get some pizza tomorrow? You know, like at the old place we went to go to in California. They just opened one her."

Amanda's heart leapt, she remembered the time she had gone with Mike to that pizza place on the pier. She even remembered what they had ordered, a large pineapple pizza with had, her favorite.

"Do you want to order a pineapple pizza with ham?" She asked smiling.

She knew Mike instantly that she had said yes, and that she had remembered.

"Of course!" He practically shouted. "How does tomorrow at seven sound?"

"Sounds great Mike, see you then!"

And with that she hung up the phone and jumped back on her bed. Pizza tomorrow at seven, just like old times… Then a sudden cringe in her stomach hit her, Cameron…

"Well, it's not exactly a date is it?"

Amanda, fell back on top of her pillow. No, she thought, just some friends going to get a slice of pizza. Or was it just that? Maybe she was going to have to break up with Cameron? She felt in her heart that Mike the one. All the signs showed it, her being jealous when he was with Julie, or when he didn't spend time with her, all the facts were there. She did have feeling for him, and she definitely hoped that tomorrow would go well. She relaxed and drifted off into sleep with a smile still on her face.
