Chapter 7
Ginger's POV
It had now been a month and our attempts at separating Luther and Teddy were futile. They were almost inseparable. I mean, it would work for about five minutes. But then, after that, it was as if nothing ever happened. This is the most aggravating thing ever.
My plans always work. I always manage to torment. Always. This is truly a new experience for me. This is madness! I truly believe that the world is going crazy.
Roy and Gabe, well they are the perfect minions that you could ask for. Well, not minions, per say, I just enjoy calling them that. They follow orders which I enjoy immensely. Gabe tries to talk back a lot, but it's all right. It just makes him more like-able for me.
However, Roy gets so easily distracted that it's nerve-wracking. Ooh…Zombies! Ooh…video games…blah.
Ugh. I walked up to Gabe's front door and knocked.
Mrs. Duncan opened the door. Seeing me, she smiled, "Ginger, sweetie. It's nice to see you again, come on in."
"Thank you, Mrs. Duncan."
"Sweetie, you've been coming over every day for almost a month now. I think you can call me Amy."
"All right," I flashed another smile at her, "Amy, may I see Gabe?"
"That's better," she said.
I followed her into the living room. I sat down on the couch and began to watch A.N.T. Farm which happened to be on. Halfway through the episode, Gabe came down.
"Hey, Ginger!"
"Hey, Gabe," I answered.
He sat down beside me. As routine, we waited for Teddy to leave so we could follow.
"Bye mom!" Teddy called.
"Bye, have fun!" Mrs. Duncan…I mean, Amy, called back.
Perfect timing.
"Let's go," I whispered to Gabe.
Teddy's POV
I loved Gilroy; I truly did. Luther, Zeke, and I were about as inseparable as we were before I left. Luther and I, especially; but, it was always that way, even when we were younger.
It had been a month, and now everything was routine. Normally, Luther and I would meet up and hang out. Then, Zeke would join us later and we would head to Ramps to skateboard.
I headed up to Ramps, holding my skateboard and helmet. I saw Zeke and Luther already there. I ran the rest of the way, eager to catch up.
"Hey guys!" I said, fastening my helmet.
"Hey Teddy," Luther replied.
"Hey," Zeke said, as well.
I got on my board and we skateboarded for a couple hours.
When we were finished, we all headed to Zeke's house.
We headed to his room. Zeke's computer pinged as we entered the room. Zeke went over to his computer and saw that Stella was requesting a chat.
"Do you guys mind if I accept? You don't have to leave or anything," Zeke asked us.
"No problem," I replied.
"You're fine. Go ahead, bro," Luther agreed.
Zeke clicked the mouse and Stella appeared on the screen.
"Hi Zeke," she said.
"Hey Stells," Zeke replied.
"Oh, hi Luther…and Teddy…I'm assuming," Stella added, noticing us.
"Yeah, it's Teddy," I answered.
"You know, you really do look a lot like Olivia," Stella said.
"Yeah," I replied.
"Hey, Zeke, do you mind if the rest of the band joins me in this conversation?" Stella asked.
"No," Zeke replied.
"Guys," Stella called to the side of the screen, "Come join me."
I watched as they filed in. Charlie slid into a chair by Stella and Mo sat next to him. Wen and Olivia came into the screen holding hands coming to sit by Stella again. I could feel Luther tense beside me, so I took his hand and squeezed gently. I knew he was over the breakup, but he couldn't help but be a little jealous.
He smiled back at me gratefully, squeezing my hand back in response.
"It's like looking into a mirror!" Olivia quipped, looking at me.
"Oh hi, I'm Teddy," I replied.
"Olivia, but I guess you know that," she answered, smiling.
"Yeah, I'm a huge fan. I love all your music."
"That's great," Wen said, smiling at Olivia.
I looked at Wen and Luther beside me. I began to laugh, "You and Luther look so much alike, as well."
It was hard to tell, but it looked like Wen's smile faltered a little bit, "Yeah," he agreed.
"So…" Zeke began, "What's up?"
"Well, we had some news to give you. Mo and Charlie, want to do the honors?" Stella asked, turning to them.
"Sure," Mo answered.
"Yeah," Charlie agreed.
"We're coming back to Gilroy!" they chorused.
"What? Really?" Zeke exclaimed.
"That's great!" Luther added.
"When?" I asked.
"Next week," Mo answered, "On Monday."
"We're giving a thank you concert at Don's Donuts on Friday, but we're staying for two weeks; Monday through the next Friday!" Stella exclaimed.
"It'll be so great to see you guys again," Zeke said.
"And, it'll be great to meet you all in person," I added.
"Yup, we are all so excited," Stella said.
Wen went off screen for a few minutes while we continued our conversation. He came back on, "Guys we have to go prepare for the concert tonight," he told them.
Stella made a sad face, "Sorry we got to go now. But, we'll see you next week!"
"Bye!" I exclaimed.
"See you," Luther added.
"Bye," Zeke said, softly.
Stella gave him one last parting smile and exited the chat.
Zeke turned to us, "So, Lemonade Mouth is coming next week!"
"That's so exciting," I said, "I love them so much!"
I began to sing,
"Somebody, Somebody, yeah
Somehow, Someday
Someway, Somebody"
"Wow Teddy," Luther commented, "I didn't know you could sing."
I blushed, "I can't, really. Not as well as Olivia, or anything."
"No," Zeke protested, "You sound almost exactly like her."
"Really?" I asked.
They nodded.
That was Chapter 7. I hoped you all enjoyed it! Please read and review. Sorry for skipping ahead a month, I felt that if I kept going day by day, I would never finish. And, it would basically end up being the same routine. So, I figured it would be okay to skip ahead. And now, Lemonade Mouth is coming into the story more…Yay! Again, please review!
