Chuckie's P.O.V.

"Ha, take that, Finster!" Angelica cheers from the couch as she drops one of my xBox remote controls onto the floor. She lays down, puts her hands behind her head and crosses her legs. "What was that, five wins in a row? I'm not even good at video games!"

I sigh and laugh. We've been studying in my room for about two hours and decided to take a break and play video games. I've never been good at any video games before. "I guess I need some practice." I chuckle and rub the back of my head awkwardly.

She smiles. "I guess so." She then looks over at me sitting on one of the airchairs in my living room. "Look, I like SSX3, but can we play a game with some action, like Black Ops or something?"

"Uhm, no. Sorry, but those games give me anxiety." I awkwardly laugh again.

She shrugs. "What do you wanna do now?"

I think for a second. "Do you want to finish studying?"

She rolls her eyes. "Why would I want to do that?" I shrug. "Okay, fine. Let's go." She says as she gets up from the couch. I get up as well and we go upstairs.

Once we get to my room I leave the door slightly open and sit down in my desk chair as Angelica sits on my bed. "Do you want to finish working on your Global History?"

She nods. "Why not?"

I pick up my binder and look through my notes. "Alright," I start, "what were the nicknames of Camillo Cavour, Giuseppe Garibaldi and Giuseppe Mazzini?" I ask.

She gives me a blank stare. It takes her a couple of seconds before she answers. "Um, Cavour was 'the Brains,' Garibaldi was 'the Sword,' and Mazzini was... 'the Soul?'" I can tell that she's unsure of her answer.

"Yes! You got a question right!" I say a little too quickly. I realize that I have a huge smile on my face and that I'm standing out of happiness for her. She hasn't gotten an answer right since we've started studying.

She has a small smile on her face, but a look of embarassment is present as well. "Thanks." She looks down, but tries to keep the same smile on her face. "I must be pretty dense if you got that excited."

I sit back down. "I'm so sorry, I was just happy for you."

She looks back up. "Thanks." She says again. Her smile turns into a real one, but a small one.

"No problem."

"I'm hungry." Angelica complains. "We've been studying for hours!"

I look at my watch. "Um, Angelica, it's been twenty minutes."

She yawns. "Don't care. I'm hungry."

"Alright, well what do you want?"

"Ice cream."

"I don't have any ice cream, Angelica. Sorry."

"Then let's go get some." She suggests in an obvious tone.

"Where?"

She looks at me. "I don't care. Anywhere that sells ice cream."

"Okay, let's go then."

We get up and go downstairs. I grab one of my brown jackets off of the coat rack and open the front door. I look at Angelica. "Do you need a coat?" I ask her.

She walks outside. A second later she comes back in and nods. "Yup."

I take one of Kimi's light blue jackets and hand it to her. "Here you go."

She takes it and puts it on. "Thanks."

Once we get outside I pull out my keyring and start to look through my collection of keys.

"Can you hurry up?" Angelica asks impatiently after three minutes of me trying to find my key to lock the front door.

"I'm trying!" I say in my defense.

I put a dull silver key into the lock and it turns. "Finally!" Angelica and I cheer in unison. I say it in an excited way, while she says it with a bit of a sarcastic tone of voice.

We then make our way to my car. I go into my driver's seat while Angelica sits in the passenger's seat. We both buckle our seat belts and I start to check all of my mirrors.

"This car is a mess." Angelica says as she takes a look in my backseat.

I nod. "I know. I take Kimi, Tommy, and Phil and Lil to school every day, and they're all pretty messy."

"If this was my car, I wouldn't let them make it into a mess, and if they did, I'd make them clean it."

I laugh. "It's not that big of a deal."

"Wow, you're a pushover."

I stop laughing and look at her. "Huh? No I'm not."

"You kind of are, Chuckie."

I roll my eyes. "Whatever."

I then pull out of my driveway and we make our way to Carvel. We get there and get on line to order. Once we're at the front, Angelica orders. "A small cup of vanilla softserve with gummy bears and whipped cream." She says.

"I'll have a large black and white milkshake with a vanilla float, please." I order.

The woman who's taking our order smiles and nods. "Okay, your name, please."

"Finster." Angelica responds and makes her way to a table.

The cashier nods. "Alright, we'll call you when it's done. Would you like to pay now?"

"Sure." I respond. "How much?"

"Nine."

I pull a ten out of my wallet and hand it to her. She smiles and hands me my change. "Thank you." I say and walk through the crowd to get to Angelica.

As soon as I sit down, I hear my name being called. "Finster." I go over to the front of the store and get me and Angelica's ice cream.

Once I get our things, I once again have to push my way out of the ice cream shop. "Let's go." I say to Angelica as I pass by her. I get outside and it takes her a couple of seconds to get out. "Here you go." I say, handing her the bag with her ice cream.

We get back into my car and make our way back to my house. Angelica takes her ice cream out of the bag and starts to eat.

"Um, Angelica?"

"What?"

"Uh, can you please be careful?"

She laughs a little. "Shut up, Finster."

"Okay."

I see some whipped cream and gummy bears fall off of her ice cream onto my polyester car seat. I facepalm myself. All she does is laugh at me.

Once we get back to my house, she's finished her ice cream and I still have half of my milkshake left. I see that my parent's cars are here.

"Are we gonna finish studying?" I ask her while walking to my front door.

"Ugh." She groans. "I guess so."

I chuckle and unlock my front door. We get inside and walk over to the staircase to go upstairs. We pass my kitchen to find my parents.

"Angelica, is that you?" My mom asks.

"Yes. Hi, Mrs. Finster." She smiles and waves to my dad, too.

"Are you staying for dinner?" Dad asks.

"No." I answer for her. "She's just here to study."

"Nonsense! Stay for dinner, Angelica. We're having penne alla vodka." Mom explains.

"Okay." Angelica smiles. "I'll stay."

"Great. Dinner will be done in ten minutes. We'll call you when it's ready."

We go over to the living room and sit in our same seats as before. I pick up the television remote and turn the T.V. on to Cartoon Network. Dexter's Laboratory is on.

About fifteen minutes before we hear my dad from the kitchen. "Chuckie, Angelica. Dinner's ready!"

I turn off the television and we go to the kitchen. "Chuckie, can you get Kimi and Phil?" Mom asks. I nod.

I go upstairs and knock on Kimi's door. "Open up."

The door opens immediately and Kimi walks out. Phil comes out shortly after her and I glare at him. He puts his hands up in his defense. It's not that Phil's not one of my best friends, it's just that him dating Kimi makes me feel a little weird around him.

Once we get downstairs Kimi and Phil look a little surprised to see Angelica. Dad sits at the head of the table, mom sits to the left of him, Kimi on the right next to Phil, Angelica next to mom and me next to her.

"So, Angelica..." Kimi starts.

"Yeah?"

"How've you been? We haven't spoken to you in a while." She says, referring to her and the rest of the gang, excluding me, I suppose.

"I'm okay. I made head cheerleader again this year."

Kimi looks back at her plate and nods. "Oh, that's cool."

There's an awkward silence before Angelica speaks again. "What about you two? Are you guys in any sports?"

Kimi shakes her head. "No, I'm not into any kind of physical activities." She laughs.

"I'm into basketball, but I'm not on the school team." Phil explains.

There's another awkward silence. None of us know what to talk about.

"So you two are dating?" Angelica asks Kimi and Phil out of the blue.

"Yup." Phil answers.

Dad starts to choke on his food and cough intensely. "WHAT?!" He manages to yell.

Kimi's eyes pop open. "Haha." She pretends to laugh. "He's kidding!"

Phil catches on and nods. He's laughing his ass off at the sight of my dad choking on his dinner but manages to speak. "Yeah, just joking, Mr. Finster." He continues to laugh.

Mom starts to hit dad on his back until his coughing calms down and he's back to normal. He glares at Phil. "Phillip, please don't joke like that."

Phil chuckles. "Sorry."

We all finish eating and I clear the table with Kimi. "You guys can go watch T.V. in the living room." Kimi says.

They go watch television as Kimi and I continue to clean up. Once we're done we meet them in the living room. They're watching Family Guy.

"Wanna watch a movie?" Kimi suggests.

"Sure." We all answer her in unison.

"Let's watch a comedy." I suggest. They all nod in agreement.

I pick up the remote and look through the On Dremand pay-per-view section. "Let's watch Mean Girls 2." Kimi suggests. "The first one was amazing."

"Me too." Angelica agrees.

Me and Phil look at each other and sigh. "Fine."

AN HOUR AND A HALF LATER.

"That must've been the worst movie that I've ever seen in my life." Phil says.

"Same here. That was a disappointment." Kimi says.

"Jesus Christ, that sucked." Angelica complains, making us laugh. She turns to me. "I have to go home."

"Alright." I say. "I'll drive you." I turn to Kimi. "Lock the door."

We go outside and get in my car. I put the key into the ignition and we leave.

"That was fun." I hear Angelica say.

"Really?"

"Yeah. I haven't spoken to Kimi or Phil in forever."

"I know."

"You're not as lame as everyone makes you seem, you know."

That makes me freeze a little bit. "What do you mean?"

"You're pretty fun to hang out with."

I smile. "Thanks."

We drive for a couple of minutes in silence until we get to her house and I pull into the driveway. "Thanks for driving me home, Finster." She says with a smile.

I awkwardly laugh. "No problem. We should really hang out more often." I know it's kind of a risk to say, but I want to hear her response.

"Yeah, that would be fun." She smiles.

It's around nine, so it's extremely dark out. The only thing lighting our conversation is the lamp posts on her block and her house lights. "I'll see you tomorrow." I say in a quiet voice, looking at her half-lit face.

"See you tomorrow." She repeats with a smile.

The lighting highlights her heart-shaped face, making her look absolutely stunning. It makes her blue eyes look mesmerizing. I feel butterflies in my stomach and beads of sweat on my forehead. Something inside of me is pushing me to make a move. I lean forward quickly, making my way towards her face.

I pull back and smile. I'm now a couple of inches from her lips before she pushes me back. "CHUCKIE, WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?"

I'm confused. "What?"

"WHY WOULD YOU KISS ME?!"

I feel my face turn red. "I-I'm sorry. I thought you wanted to-"

"NO! EW!" She screams before she opens the passenger side door, gets out and slams the door in my face.

I see her run into the front door of her house and slam that as well.

I'm now sat here alone. I feel a tear fall from my left eye, down my cheek. I'm sitting in my car, parked in the driveway of the house of the girl I love, crying alone.

I put my car in reverse and go home.
