Hey, thanks for the reviews. They make me smile. I don't own The Covenant, or else I'd be to busy to be write this story. ;) Just kidding, but anyways. I am getting stuck on my story. Let me know. All input is welcome. Anywho, here's chapter ten.

Beth was worried. Tyler had drug her away from spying on Steph four hours ago and took her to his dorm. They sat there watching TV. Tyler had started kissing her neck and whispering in her ear, but she just brushed him away. He looked hurt, but Beth hadn't noticed. She was tense and waiting for her phone to buzz. She didn't think Reid would do anything too bad, but she didn't trust him. Steph was to naïve. She would be sucked into his charms, end up being a one night stand and hate Reid. That would seriously screw things up for Beth and Tyler.

As if reading her mind, Tyler said "Would you calm down? I warned him that if he messed us up, I'd beat his ass for it later. You're going to make your hair fall out if you stay like this. Trust me since you don't trust him. Just give him a chance… please." He looked at her with his incredible eyes and she couldn't help but melt.

"For you, I guess I can." She was sitting on his lap, so she turned her head and kissed him softly. He leaned in more enthusiastically, turning her completely around and running his hands over her back. Then her phone rang. He growled and looked at her, a little exasperated. She gave him the saddest face she could and he leaned back against the headboard, while saying "Go on. I'll just wait here." She snatched up her phone and flipped it open, a little forcefully, because they thought they heard something crack.

"Steph, oh my gosh, where the hell are you," she asked before Steph could say anything.

"Sorry mom. I didn't mean to worry you. I'm with Reid, we're in the dorm. We were actually wondering where you were and what time you'd be home."

"You hoe, you just met him. Today. Like, 12 hours ago."

"Well, from what Reid told me after you left, the circumstances were quite similar with you and Tyler. Is that true?"

"Yeah, but that was different. Tyler isn't a total jackass. Or man whore."

"So, you're telling me not to do the exact thing you did. Nice Beth, really nice." Beth thought for a second. She knew that Steph could take care of herself. She was being a hypocrite, so she replied "Yeah, I guess I am. Forget it though. I'll stay here tonight. Don't get knocked up and don't do anything in my bed or with my stuff."

"You got it buddy." Even over the phone, Beth could her Steph's smile. Tyler took this opportunity to start kissing Beth's neck again.

"I gotta go," she said, and she sounded flustered, because now Tyler's hands started tracing random patterns on her stomach.

"And I'm a hoe, wow. Bye." Steph hung up and Beth threw her phone onto Reid's bed and she looked at Tyler, who was wearing an expression of innocence.

"I'm sorry, did you want something? I don't know if you had noticed, but I was on the phone."

"Well, I had a problem. My girlfriend is gay. She totally ignores me for some chick she made out with earlier. I was just wondering if you knew what to do about it."

"You could try jealousy. I know that my boyfriend would go crazy insane if I was with another guy. Especially if he knew I'd kissed him, and I liked this other guy way more. You wanna try. If it will help your girlfriend notice you, I'll sacrifice my lips for the cause." She leaned in and laid a kiss on his eager mouth.

"I think it would most definitely help if I could do this." He lowered his hands to her t-shirt hem and tugged it up over her head. She did the same to him.

"I think this will most definitely help, although how she could like anyone else when you have a body like this is beyond my comprehension." She ran her hands up his chest and he rippled. She smirked a very Reid like smirk. He leaned in kissed gently on the lips. She sighed and he pulled back.

"What's wrong? I'm sorry," he said.

"No, it's not you. I just, I don't know." She rolled over so she was back to his chest. She looked over at the clock. It read 3:26. "I wanna go out somewhere." He followed her gaze.

"Baby girl, its 3:00 in the morning. Where are you wanting to go?" He smiled as he raised his eyebrows at her.

"I don't know, just out. Wanna go to Wal-Mart? They're always open." She smiled at him.

"Okaaaay. I suppose so, if you want." He looked down at her, his hands resting on her navel. "Are you gonna go dressed like that though," he asked. He laughed as she leaned down and snatched up their forgotten shirts.

"Give it about Ten minutes and I bet I could get Reid and Steph to go."

Beth laughed. "He only needs ten minutes? Can't wait til he knows you feel that way."

"I am NOT gay, but he really is that good. Well, from what girls have said, he is." She stared for a minute, and then busted out laughing again.

"At least I didn't make out with my same gender best friend." That shut her up.

They turned on the TV and waited. 15 minutes later, Tyler called Reid's cell.

"What. Do. You. Want." He said each word as a sentence.

"Oh shut up, I know you're done. It would have taken more rings then that if you weren't. Me and Beth are going to Wal-Mart. You two wanna come?"

"No."

"Let me talk to Steph." He heard Reid say, 'it's Tyler, he wants to talk to you.'

"Hello?" she sounded confused.

"You wanna go to Wal-Mart with me and Beth?"

"Umm. Hello. It's 4 in the morning. Of course. I'll tell Reid."

He heard her tell him and him say 'dammit. I hate you Tyler.'

"I know. Get dressed and meet us downstairs in about five minutes."

"Kay." He heard the click and smiled at Beth. "Told you so." They got their shoes. On the way down, they stopped by Kate and Sarah's dorm room. They were both up and answered in boy shorts and tank tops. Tyler looked away while Beth asked them. They immediately said yes. They slipped clothes on and then called Caleb and Pogue. They said they'd meet them up there.

Everyone met around the corner from the lobby. When the guard strolled around the other corner, they all ran past laughing. He whipped around, but it was too late. They were almost to Tyler's hummer. They scrambled in and Reid spun out of the parking lot as he came outside. They turned the music up as they rode out of town. Thirty minutes later, they pulled up to a 24-hour Wal-Mart. SUPER CENTER. They immediately spotted Caleb's mustang, seeing as there were maybe twenty cars in the lot. The guys were sitting against the hood waiting. When Tyler pulled up next to them, they smiled.

As everyone was getting out the truck, Pogue asked "How exactly did this happen? Who wanted to come to Wal-Mart this early?"

"Guilty," admitted Beth. "But oh well. Ready to go inside. I've always wondered what they do when everyone leaves." The girls all linked arms and skipped inside. Sarah did her best Sherlock Holmes impersonation and said "Let's go investigate, shall we." The guys followed behind them, laughing at the girls they had picked. But, they wouldn't trade them. Once inside, they stood in the doorway, Reid asked "So what now genius. You got us this far." They all turned to Beth. She blushed and thought for a minute.

Stephani saved her by saying "Why don't we each pair up with someone and then pick a color. We have to fill our buggies up as best as we can with those colored objects.

"And we could meet back here in ten minutes. The one with the most stuff wins," piped in Sarah.

"And, when we get back, we have to push our partner around the store, one lap for each person, with everything we collected," added Beth.

"Yay, a race. Let's draw straws," cheered Kate.

"Anybody got straws," asked Caleb.

"Yep. I always have some. Don't know why though," said Steph.

"We need four," said Reid. When she'd gotten them out, Pogue took out his pocket knife and cut them at odd lengths. He said "There are four sets of matching length straws. When you draw, don't show anyone your straws, we want it to be a surprise. The two that get each pair are together." Sarah drew first, then Reid. Next were Steph and Kate. Then came Tyler and Caleb. Pogue went next, and Beth was last.

"One the count of three, show your straws. One, two, THREE." They all whipped them out. Sarah was paired with Steph. Kate was with Tyler, and Pogue was with Caleb. Beth and Reid both groaned, but Sarah said, "Sorry, fair is fair. Suck it up."

"Fine. But only cause I have to," said Beth.

"Ok. Anyways, the rules are simple. You cant fill your carts up with the same item over and over. They all have to be different. Each one has to be different in a noticeable way. Beth, Reid, you two got the shortest straws, pick your color," said Tyler.

"Black," they both blurted out at the same time.

"Oh look, they agree for once." Everyone laughed at this, even Reid. Sarah/Steph picked red, Kate/Tyler picked yellow, and Caleb/Pogue picked blue. They grabbed shopping carts and all set ten minute timers on at least one group member's phone. They even got a cashier to start them.

"On your mark, get set… GO!" They hit the start button on the phones and took off. (This part's gonna follow Beth/Reid.)

"Go to clothes first," ordered Beth as they ran down an aisle. They shot towards the clothes, and found black right away.

"They grabbed as many different kinds of black shirts as possible. Then they moved on to jeans, and then they did the same with the guys section. Reid was running right past the bras and panties, when Beth grabbed his hoodie.

"Come on. There's plenty in here."

"Ummm, no."

"Wow. You'll snatch a girl's thong off of her, but not off a shelf. I think you're afraid of panties," she taunted, raising her eyebrows with a smirk.

"Hell no. Let's go," he said. But once in there, he did little.

"Just move. It's not going to bite you," she said as she snatched a matching set off of the rack. He started helping when Steph/Sarah ran by with an almost full cart. Reid and Beth were doing good, but they were still a little behind. After that, they ran to the blankets/pillows and threw it all in there. They had three minutes left so they went to find a big black bean bag chair, and they actually found one. Then Beth had an idea.

"Go to the bike stuff. If we are racing, I want a helmet." He just laughed, but pushed the cart towards the bikes. She grabbed a shiny black one. With that accomplished they raced back as the cashier called out over the speakers "Ten minutes are up. Back to doors!" She watched as the four carts all came skidding from different directions. Once back, her and three other employees checked the carts. Reid and Beth had the most, then Caleb, then Steph, then Tyler.

"I have a much better idea than both push," panted Kate, clutching her side. "Why don't Sarah, Steph, and I go with one of the other guys and let them push us around twice. They're stronger."

"I. pant. Agree," said Beth. The guys looked at each other.

"Most definitely."

"Sure."

"Bring it on Baby Boy."

"I'm game."

"Ok then," said the female cashier, Amber, "ladies, into your chariots. Kate climbed in Caleb's while smiling at Pogue. "Sorry, I just think he's faster than you. I still love you." He laughed as Sarah climbed in his and Steph got in Tyler's as Reid helped Beth into his because of her size. She jammed her helmet on, causing laughter from everyone. "Safety first," she said with a smile.

"Ok guys. Twice around the edge of the store and back here. First one wins. Pretty easy. On your mark, get set, GO! The guys all took off, but Reid was slowest.

"Let me know when they start to slow down a little," he said. She nodded and watched carefully. Sure enough, halfway through the first lap, they were all slowing sown some. "They're going slower," she called over her shoulder. He smiled. "Excellent." Once they were finishing the first lap, Reid picked up speed. He passed the first corner before the others were halfway there. Getting closer to the stacked paper towels, she yelled, "Get in a little. I have an idea." He did as commanded and she took off her helmet. She grabbed one strap tightly, and as they were just passing them, she slung her arm out and sent them all flying across the track.

"Nice. I didn't think you'd play dirty." She could see him starting to slow down.

"We're almost there. Keep going." His arms started shaking a little, but he just went the same speed. When the finish line was in sight, Beth looked back.

"They're right behind us. Run Reid." She cheered him on and could see the others doing the same. The guys were almost neck and neck now, and all the girls were laughing. However, with a sudden burst of speed, Reid shoved the cart once and hopped on that little bar directly below the handle. They crossed through the "finish line" (toilet paper hung by the cashier) and won the race.

"Yes, you did it Reid. YAY! She turned around as he dug his heel into the thick carpet to stop. She hugged him around the neck and smiled. He lifted her up and out. They looked. Next to come was Tyler, then Pogue, then Caleb.

Pogue laughed. "Yep, he's really faster. Thanks for the confidence." They all climbed of the carts. Reid slung his arm over Beth's shoulder with a smile. "WE WON!" Beth laughed as she sank down to the carpet, taking Reid with her. She noticed he was still shaking. "Can we get some water?"

"Caleb got a bottle out off the cooling shelves and came back. "Anything for the winner." Reid drank the whole bottle in about thirty seconds. "Another please." He drank this one more slowly, only half a bottle now. As they got back up, Tyler gave the cashier a ten. "Keep the change. I don't feel like to much hassle tonight. She opened her register and put the change in as Tyler put his wallet away. They all got up walked to the doors. Once outside, Beth got a running start, then did round offs, cart wheels, and front flips to the hummer. The girls all cheered, and the guys wolf whistled and cat called. She turned around and bowed. "Thank you, thank you. It was nothing." They all laughed as they made their way to the car. Once there, Sarah and Kate said they'd crash at Caleb's with him and Pogue. Reid, Steph, Tyler, and Beth climbed in after waving good bye. The two guys got up front while the girls fell asleep on each others shoulders. Back at Spencer, the guys each took a girl and carried them bridal style to the elevator, then stood them up against their chests. Once on their floors, Reid called "Night," over his shoulder as he carried Steph to her dorm. Tyler just grunted and went to his door. His eyes flashed black and the door opened. He gently laid Beth down, and then bent over her. He kissed her eyelids, then lips. She opened her eyes sleepily, watching as he went to her feet and slid the shoes off. Then he undid the button on her jeans and pulled them off, trailing his hand as he went. She lifted up as he lifted her shirt off. He then grabbed one of his tees and slipped it over her head. He then stripped down to his boxer's and lifted the blankets, laying them on her and sliding under them himself. She rolled over into his arms and smiled. She kissed his chest once before closing her eyes and falling asleep as he stroked her hair and kissed her forehead.

Lame chapter, I know. I was bored though. I also wanted Beth to be nicer to Reid and vice versa. Anywho, review. I love hearing from you guys. TTFN. loves ya. Bye-bye
