I couldn't think of a better chapter title. This is for relationship developement and laughs.

Chapter 11:

Spending the Day Together

Todd was in his last class of the day, Trigonometry. To make a long story short, he had a D in this class. He just really sucked at math and found the majority of the things they learned pointless. That and he'd fallen asleep and just woke up two minutes ago.

The teacher came over to him and gave him a piece of paper.

"What's this for?" he asked still trying to wake up.

"Detention."

That woke him up. "Detention? For what? I'm Todd Ryan, you can't give me a detention!" he practically shouted.

"I've told you countless times to stop texting in class. Maybe this will make you follow class rules."

"But…but that's not fair! This class is boring anyway! I swear I'll bring my lawyer's in here. They'll sue you for everything you've got!"

"It doesn't work that way," he said through his teeth. Todd probably the most difficult stubborn student he'd ever had and he was now tap dancing on his last nerves. "Keep it up and I'll take the phone."

Todd snorted. "Is that a threat?"

The teacher narrowed his eyes at him. "Consider it a final warning."

The bell rang. Todd stood up and pointed to the teacher. "You won't hear the end of this."

He just rolled his eyes at him but Todd didn't notice.

He picked up his bag and stomped out of the classroom mumbling to himself about these stupid teachers. This day just summed up all of the reason why he hated this school. On top of having to walk all over this place to get to classes and sit around and do actual work, he now had a detention.

He ran into Fianna no his way to his locker. She noticed the mad look on his face. "What are you upset about this time?"

"You say that like I'm always upset about something."

"Well yesterday you were complaining because you did your own laundry." She took his arm. "Seriously, what's wrong?"

"I got a detention."

"Oh no, what did you do?"

"I was texting in class. I don't see why that's so bad. I've got to keep myself entertained somehow, right?"

"I told you before that you're going to get caught. How many detentions have you had so far?"

Todd counted them off in his head. He'd gotten a detention for chewing gum, running in the hallway, talking back to a teacher, etc. "About…eight? Nine? I swear this place is like a jail cell."

Fianna sighed. "Geez Todd. Keep it up and you'll get suspended or something. I don't think that will make your parents any more willing to give you your show back."

Todd sighed but knew she was right. He had tried to stop being so selfish at home so his parents will think of him as a good person but if he did end up getting suspended or even if a teacher called them, it would be over.

Fianna pulled them out of the crowd of students and kissed his lips.

"Is there any way I can skip this detention?"

"As far as I know, if you skip detention they'll just give you another one. I don't know, I've never had a detention."

Todd snickered. "You goody-goody."

"Look, I have better things to do than sit in a classroom with a bunch of delinquents for an hour after school."

"You calling me a delinquent?"

"Yes, but there's a difference because I love you. I'd gladly stay locked in a classroom with you after school."

He smirked and kissed her lips again. "We'd need an air mattress though."

The next morning Todd was on the phone with Fianna. He was walking around the house in his pajamas not trying to go anywhere specific. "What do you want to do today babe?"

"Let's go to lunch…then the park."

"Fine by me."

"But I want you to drive us there."

He raised his eyebrow. "Why?"

"Because you say you know how to drive but you never drive me anywhere."

"You still don't think I can drive?" he said with a smirk.

"Nope."

"Fine then. I'll drive you. I'll prove to you I can drive. You'll see!"

She laughed. "You're so dramatic."

"I'm an actor, what do you want from me?"

"When will you be here?"

"Um…twelve."

"Don't be late."

"I'm never late." He hung up his phone then ran up to his room to get dressed. He ran into Jordan on the way downstairs. "Dad, give Joseph the week off."

Jordan raised his eyebrow very surprised by the request. "Um, okay…why?"

"I'm driving myself."

It was very unlike Todd to say something like that. "But…why?"

Why does it matter, he thought. "Just because. Anyway, Fianna and I are going to lunch. See ya." He went past him and out to the garage. The Ryan's had seven cars including the limo. One of which was broken down and hadn't been used since Todd was twelve. He scanned the garage for a moment then grabbed the keys to the Lamborghini and jumped in.

Once he got to Fianna's house he stopped in her driveway. He went to her door and rang the doorbell. She opened it and tackled him in a big hug. He hugged her back laughing. "Well, someone's all cuddly today."

Fianna kissed his lips. "Would you prefer it if I didn't cuddle with you?"

He shook his head. "No of course not. Continue the cuddling." They hugged each other for a moment.

She looked over at the Lamborghini in the driveway. "Whoa…nice car."

"We just got it waxed a week ago."

They went over and got inside. Todd started the engine and turned on the radio. Fianna watched him intently as he backed out of her driveway. For some reason the idea of Todd driving was amusing to her. As far as she knew, since she met him he never drove himself anywhere so it had been hard to picture him behind the wheel of a car.

Todd noticed her watching him as he drove down her street. "Okay, is this that interesting?"

"I'm sorry. You never drive yourself anywhere, so yeah it is."

"I drive myself places. I'll have you know I drove to Star Bucks the other day and didn't even text while driving," he said proudly.

Fianna laughed. "Good to know you drive safely."

They went to Applebees for lunch. It wasn't half as mortifying as Fresco was and it only came to about twenty dollars. Then they went to the park nearby. They walked hand in hand and Fianna noticed he was wearing his sunglasses. "Take those off Todd, it's not even sunny."

Todd glanced around at all the people surrounding them. "No thanks. Someone's going to see me."

"I thought you liked it when your fans bowed down to you."

He squeezed her hand. "This is our day Fianna, I don't want anyone to interrupt us. And with all these people around someone is going to see me."

Fianna kind of felt for him at that point. It must have been hell having to worry about people following you all the time. Even for someone like Todd who adored the admiration, it had to get annoying at times. "Don't worry about it so much Todd," she said taking the sunglasses off his face. "Let's just have some fun."

With that they ran over to the swings and claimed them before anyone else could. "Wanna race?" Todd said.

"Of course. I'll win."

"No you won't."

"Don't be so sure."

"My legs are longer, I can swing faster."

"That has nothing to do with it, Todd."

They swung as high as they could without flipping over the top laughing and teasing each other as they did. Fianna actually did end up winning but of course Todd was too stubborn to admit defeat.

"Just admit that I won!" Fianna said.

"No way, it was a tie."

"It was not! I clearly won."

"You couldn't have won."

"But I did!" She stood up. "You know I did you jerk!"

He stood up and leaned close to her face. "Who are you calling a jerk?"

"You!"

He smirked. "Them's fighting words. You'd better run, or else."

Fianna took off running and he chased after her. They ran around the whole park and finally Todd reached out and grabbed her. Then it turned into a game of tag with Fianna "it". Todd was much faster than her though so instead of trying to catch him she managed to corner him and tag him. Then he chased her across the monkey bars (which each of them were much too big for) and down the slides. Finally he grabbed her and they fell into the grass rolling around laughing and tickling each other. There were a bunch of little kids at the park who had been staring at them, but they didn't care. It was nice to act like little kids and run around acting like fools without a care in the world.

They lay side by side in each other's arms trying to catch their breath and still laughing.

"Hey guess what?" Todd said.

"What?"

"I still won."

She rolled her eyes and pushed his arm playfully. "Damn you."

He hugged her tightly. "I love you."

"AHH!" she exclaimed jumping up.

Todd sat up and gave her a strange look. "What's with you? I tell you I love you and then you scream at the top of your lungs."

"No, there was something crawling on me!"

Todd laughed. "You're such a priss."

She put her hands on her hips. "I am not a priss!"

"Yeah you are."

She pointed to him. "Oh my god, what's that?"

"Ah!" Todd exclaimed. "Get it off! Get it off! Get it off!" he yelled brushing himself off frantically.

Fianna fell back laughing. "You call me a priss! You're worse than me!"

Todd tapped her knee with his foot. "Shut up. What, did you think I was afraid? I was just testing you stupid."

She smirked. "Oh sure. If you do this over a fake bug, I wonder what you'd do if it were real."

He lay next to her and kissed her forehead. "Do you think I'd be afraid of a bug or something? That's just ridiculous." They lay there for a moment looking up at the clear sky. Then both their stomachs growled. "What the hell was that?" Todd said.

"Our stomachs. You hungry?"

He nodded as he sat up, then he pulled her up with him. "Let's go back to my house for dinner. I'll cook for you."

"So you really did start learning how to cook?"

"I've made dinner a few times," he said with a shrug. "It's kind of fun," he admitted reluctantly. "I learned how to make chicken alfredo."

"Sweet, I can't wait to try it."

Once they got to Todd's house, they went into the kitchen and made that chicken alfredo this time with Todd's instructions instead of Fianna's. They ate in the dining room with his parents and it was delicious. You wouldn't know it, but Todd was actually an excellent chef whether he wanted to admit it or not.

After dinner Fianna went up to his room that he'd just cleaned the night before. She'd never been in there before. It was about five times the size of her room, it had a huge bay window and a balcony, king sized bed, surround sound stereo, poster's everywhere and of course one of himself, HD flat screen TV, and a keyboard. "Holy crap," she said.

"What?"

"This is the biggest bedroom I've ever seen!"

"It could have been bigger. My parent's just had to have the master bedroom."

"That room is bigger?"

"About twice the size as this."

She looked around in the same way he had when he first came to her house. She stopped at a shelf on the wall full of dozens of CD's, everything from Stevie Wonder to Eminem. "You have a lot of music."

He sat down on his bed. "I'm a musician, what do you expect?"

She came over and sat next to him and rested her head on his shoulder. "You're so lucky."

He lifted her chin to look at him. "I know." They leaned towards each other and kissed passionately. She put her arms around his neck and gripped his shirt and he gripped her hair. Their kisses became deeper and more urgent. He slowly dipped her onto her back and a moan escaped them as he did. His hand trailed down her leg raising goose bumps. Their tongue's danced around each other's mouths. The moment felt perfect. The passion was rising between them. He wondered if she was thinking the same thing he was and wanted to do it.

Hours later both of them were under the cover's sleeping. Todd opened his eyes sleepily and yawned. Fianna was in his arms sleeping soundly. He hugged her close to him and smiled. Usher's song "My Boo" was playing softly on the radio from when they were listening to it before they went to sleep. He ran his hand through Fianna's soft hair then put it under her shirt and twisted her bra strap around his finger as he watched her sleep.

A few minutes later Fianna opened her eyes. He kissed hr forehead. "Hey beautiful."

She smiled. His just-woke-up voice was very sexy. "Hey," she said yawning. "What time is it?"

He looked at the digital clock on the night table. "Eleven forty five."

She sat up. "Eleven forty five! Crap, it's almost midnight, my mother is going to kill me!"

Todd sat up as well. "Put your shoes on then, I'll take you home."

"Okay."
