I smiled at my very naïve friend. He was Sam and honestly, you don't ever think of him falling in love because he always seems to be the love guru himself. "Sam…it doesn't matter whether or not she totally rejects you. I mean, we both know Kayla way too well. And I personally don't think she'd stoop to the level of leaving you because you like her." I stated softly, afraid of the 'what if' behind what I just said.

"You're right. I know that. But by the way Kayla acted when Zak said that…it just seemed like she really didn't seem too fond of the idea." Sam said shyly.

"Kayla is very good at denial." I said, "And sarcasm…so…maybe what you were reading from what she said was wrong and maybe it's the total opposite?" I suggested, hoping that I was right and that getting Sam's hopes up wasn't something I was going to regret later on.

"True… I'll tell her when the time is right." Sam said.

"There's no better time than the present." I said, winking at him.

Sam rolled his eyes at my cheesy quote, "Yeah well…sometimes the present is always a 'gift'." He said, referencing another quote.

"Well then tomorrow. Go to the park. It's perfect there…" I said, recalling all my memories at that particular park.

"Okay, okay. But right now…" he yawned, "I'm going to sleep. Come on, it's chilly." He said wrapping his arm around my shoulder as we walked quietly back into the house.

I woke up from my peaceful slumber to find Sam and Kayla completely gone. Zak was still asleep and so was Troy, but I managed to get next to Troy last night and his arm must have wrapped around me while I was sleeping because there was no way I was going to be able to release his tight grasp.

"Troy…" I whispered in his ear, lightly kissing him on the cheek to see if maybe that would wake him up.

"Enggh…" he mumbled, taking his left arm and shooing me away.

I couldn't help but laugh at the sounds that Troy was making. "Troy…wake up. It's ten." I said, lightly brushing my lips against him, hoping that a simple, delicate kiss would wake him up this time.

A small smile crept upon his face, "Do that again…" his voice was dripping in the sound of slumber and I couldn't help but giggle.

I kissed forehead and smiled, knowing that Troy wasn't going to be very happy about that. "Gabiii…" he mumbled, "Please? My lips hurt." He said, his eyes still closed, but his lips were pouting.

"Nope. You have to wake up."

"If I weren't awake I wouldn't be talking now would I?" he said, pulling me closer to him and resting his head on top of mine. "Now…please? My lips might fall off any second!" he whined.

"Fine. But only because it's you." I said, moving my head towards him and capturing his lips with mine.

"Mm…" Troy said, finally opening his eyes and giving me this goofy grin like he was the happiest man on earth.

"Mm to you too." I said, smiling, finally getting up and stretching my legs.

"Where's Kayla and Sam?" he said, noticing a sleeping Zak but no sleeping Kayla or Sam.

"I don't know. But I do have a hunch." I smiled, hoping that things were going well and Sam took my advice.

"Is this about last night…?" he said, stretching his arms and getting up as well to stretch his legs.

"That's what I'm assuming."

"Nnngg…sssshhh. It's quiet time." I heard a grumble from Zak.

"Well then…" I laughed, as I grabbed my pillow from the couch and threw it on Zak's head.

I heard a small laugh come from Zak, but his head was in his pillow. He grabbed the pillow on the back of his head and threw it back at me. "Zak! Get up! It's practically 10:15!" I said, lightly kicking him on the side.

"Which means I have another two hours to sleep." He said, stuffing his head further into his pillow as if his life depended on it.

"Fine. Troy, do you have a bucket?"

Troy furrowed his eyebrows, "Why…?"

"So it can hold the water that I need."

"I'm UP!" Zak popped up, glaring at me with his sleepy eyes. "I hope you're happy Ms. Gabriella Montez." He rolled his eyes.

"Where are-"

"The park probably." I said, already knowing his question.

Zak responded with narrowed eyes and then glanced at Troy who shrugged. "Hm. To the park then…" he smiled as he grabbed his clothes and went to the bathroom to change.

"Do you really think that Sam decided to actually talk to Kayla about this?" Troy said, as we continued to walk towards the park.

"I think so." Zak chimed in, "I mean it's not like they're strangers who just started randomly liking each other. They're practically best friends."

"Ahem."

"And Gabriella thinks they are and she knows them like a mother should know her child." Zak said, as we almost reached the park.

I continued to fall in step with the two boys on both sides of me, but I looked up finally once we reached the park. I heard the sound of laughing children, dogs barking, birds chirping, and Sam and Kayla's voices near the tree that I had gone to when I was upset…

"There they are…" Zak mumbled, staring at Sam and Kayla.

I noticed both of their stances. Kayla was leaning against the tree, seemingly trying to look as if she was careless. Sam was somewhat tense by the look of his shoulders and the fact that his hands were in his pocket. "C'mon…let's go somewhere where we don't look like total creepers by staring at two people." Troy mumbled, grabbing my arm and doing one of those weird head things that guys do, to Zak.

We followed Troy towards the opposite side of the park which was near a water fountain, some benches, the playground set, and some more trees. "What do you think they're saying?"

"Oh Kayla…I love you! I loved you from the very first day I saw-"

"SHUT UP!" I whisper-yelled, smacking Troy a little harder than I intended.

"OW!" Troy screamed, rubbing the area on his chest from where I had hit him. "You're such a violent person!" he said, glaring at me.

"And you're loud! Now sssh." I said, whipping my head back towards the scene.

Kayla's eyes had immediately gone wide and her eyebrows were raised. Sam was looking down at the ground, mumbling something and he looked very ashamed of himself. It took all my will not to run up and hug Sam. That boy needs a girl. Now.

"What do you think just h-"

"SH!" I said, smacking Zak this time in the same area I had smacked Troy.

"Gosh! Troy was right!" he said offended by my actions, "You are a violent girl!" he said also rubbing his chest.

"Will you shut your mouth?" I said, glaring at Zak, hoping that he would shut up for a good two minutes.

"Hmm…I could…but-oh my god!" he said, going wide eyed.

I turned around, wondering what he was 'oh my god'-ing about and found that Sam was leaning against Kayla…kissing her! "AWWW!" I said, wanting to jump up and hug the two of them for finally getting together.

"Wow. Who knew." Troy said, smiling.

"I did!" Zak said, but I smacked him once more. "STOP DOING THAT!" he said, yelling which got everyone's attention, including Sam and Kayla.

They both looked over at us and I just smiled at them, giving them both a thumbs-up. Sam responded with a smile, giving me a wink. Kayla just rolled her eyes, but leaned against Sam, hugging him. "Finally!" Zak said, smiling as he just grabbing Troy and I by the arms and dragging us to Sam and Kayla.

As we got closer and closer to them, I couldn't help but noticed how it seemed as if Kayla was glowing. It was like, all she needed was some man's love and obviously, it was Sam's. "Aw guys. I'm so happy for you guys!" I smiled, hugging both of them.

"Thanks Gabs." Sam whispered into my ear as I hugged him.

"Anything for you." I smiled, as I couldn't help but feel as if these last few days couldn't have been any better.

Awwwwww. Okay, that chapter honestly was really fun to write. Anyways, GUESS WHAT? IT'S THANKSGIVING BREAK! Which means: 1) I get a good five days off 2)I get to pig out on Thursday and eat a bunch of turkey! 3) I get to write as much as I want! How amazing is that?

And I apologize that I decided to update this chapter at 1:23AM my time. Heh. I couldn't sleep so I decided to type up a chapter!

I hope that I can update every single day as an apology for me being such a horrible person. I hope this chapter satisfied all you Samayla fans! Thanks to all of you who have been so patient!

Hay its mar-ay: Haha, well it's fine! At least you decided to read the sequel right? And yeah, I totally know what you mean when you say you like it when Troy can be a jerk. It just gives him a really good character development type-thing. (aren't I great with words?) And Jess isn't gone. Trust me. :P And about Carter. I can honestly say this, as the author, that he doesn't have a little crush on Gabriella. But there will be some more drama coming up in the next chapter. Anyways, thanks for checking out the sequel and reviewing! It means a lot!

x-TammieBaybii-x: I'm glad you liked it! I admit, I liked writing these last two chapters .There wasn't any drama except for the Samayla thing and it was all something that I have been kind of experiencing for the last good week. Anyways, I hope that we can chat soon! I'm up for the next five days, so maybe we can chat a bit and catch up? I hope everything is going well on your side of the world! ;) love you!

XxBabiiGurlxX: I'm glad you liked it! And I thought it was pretty darn cute myself! Thanks for reviewing!

Zac is my life: Do you mean impression? Anyways, that is kind of true. A lot of people do have a unique writing style and some are very distinct. And of course you do! All writers want reviewers, so I guess giving them back just shows that you know the feeling! And that's awesome that you do that! And hahahaha. Boys don't ever listen. …do they? I mean, sometimes I think when you tell them something it goes through one ear and out the other. Sheesh! Boys…can't live with em'…and sometimes…you can't live without em'. Hahaha. And I'm glad you liked the Sam and Kayla thing! Thanks for reviewing!

Pumpkinking5: Well I hope that chapter answered all your questions! Anyways, thanks so much for continuing to read and review! It really does mean a lot! Thanks!

Zanessastories1225788: Well I'm sorry you're so busy! I hope you managed to keep up with everything….because trust me, I know the feeling. I feel as if I'm drowning in homework. Anyways, it actually is the 25th. It's this Thursday to be more specific. Anyways, thanks for reviewing and I'm glad that you liked the whole Sam and Kayla relationship thing. And hopefully this chapter was even better!

So wow, only seven reviews that chapter? That saddens me but I know all of you are getting impatient and you are busy. I hope all of you who do celebrate Thanksgiving have an amazing one! (just in case I don't update later on today…) And I will write as much as I possibly can! Anyways, I am very sleep. It is now…1:31 as I finish typing this! …blegh.
