Hey. Here's the next chapter. Don't forget to Review.


"Insult you? Is that why you think I'm here for?" Ash nodded.

"Isn't that why? So you can come and insult me. Tell me you hate me because you didn't get a chance to yesterday."

"Ash." He turned around towards May who had called him. "Maybe you should let her talk."

"If you want me to insult you then … You have your whole life to a jerk so why don't you take a day off so leave me a message when you get back. How about this one. My mom said never to talk to strangers. Since you're really strange, I guess that means I can't talk to you… Sorry I can't think of an insult stupid enough for you. Oh but I forgot you mother dropped you on the floor when you were a baby. So how about this why don't you go outside and play, hide and go 'f' yourself."

"Misty. Don't you think that's a little mean?" Ash asked.

"I'm not mean. You're just a sissy. You always were." Misty turned around and walked away.

"Misty. Can't we talk about this?" Ash asked.

Misty turned around, "No. I tried to talk, Ash and to think…I liked you too." She ran off crying.

"I better talk to her. It's the least I could do." May said to Ash and ran off to follow Misty.

"Boy. Did you mess up?" Brendan said.

"And you didn't."

"Hey I got 2 girls phone numbers today. I think I had a great day today."

"Two huh?" They turned around.

"Sabrina… Hi."

"Told ya, you'd get caught." Ash whispered to him walking away.

"Worry about your own problems okay." He turned around from her to speak to Ash.

"Problem? There's no problem." She touched his shoulder and walked around him still touching him with a gentle hand across his chest. It sent tingles down his spine.

"You are May's best friend aren't you?"

"Hmm."

"Explain." Sabrina glared at Scott and Mike and they walked away.

"What do I need to explain?" Sabrina said flirtatiously. "You should know when a girl is interested."

"I don't see a girl. I see a woman: a sexy hot amazing woman."

"I like what I hear." Sabrina smiled.

"So that means I get a chance to-"

"Maybe… I'm not like other girls, Brendan." Sabrina slowly walked away.

"What makes you different?" Sabrina turned around and smiled.

"When I want something I make sure that I get it and I want you."

"What if I said… I wanted you too… I just didn't know what I say and didn't know how to react to someone like you. So I figure I'd get as close to you as possible."

"By dating May?"

"It sounds stupid I know." Brendan said.

"Hum."

"Hum? I don't know whether I should ask you for your number-"

"How about I save you the trouble?" She gave him a slip of paper. Brendan took the slip of paper.

"What about May?"

"She doesn't have to know. Does she?" Sabrina smirked.


Misty ran into the bathroom crying. She slipped into a corner and didn't bother to get back up. She took out her cell phone and pressed the speed dial number.

"Hello… Misty. What's wrong?"

Misty cried into the phone. "Daddy. Can you pick me up?"

"Ok, Misty. I'll be right there."

"Thank you, daddy."

"I love you, Misty."

"I love you, too, daddy." Misty hung up her cell phone and hugged her knees, cradling herself. She heard the door open. She didn't bother to look up at the girl who just walked in.

"Are you okay, Misty?"

"Do I look okay?" She said. She didn't bother to look up when she heard May who was probably smirking.

"I probably should have guessed that."

"Probably." Misty said.

"What's wrong?"

"I really liked him… Then he just insulted me after spilling out his guts to me yesterday."

"Boys are… unpredictable." May smirked.

"How do you deal with Brendan?" May paused. She didn't expect this conversation to go that way. "I'm sorry… If it's personal-"

"No it's not that. It's just- I don't even know how I deal with Brendan. He's nice and sweet… when he wants to be. He's taking it too fast, that's for sure."

"Too fast?"

"It's just too much. We've barely been together two months. He wants so much from me and I'm not that 'type of girl.' I should break up with him but that'll ruin my rep."

"You shouldn't date anyone based on rep." Misty said, "It ruins the wonders of being in a relationship."

"Yeah. I just 'testing' Brendan."

"Testing him?" Misty smiled. "How?"

"Pulling crazy stunts… like seeing if he wants to just hang out the two of us over being with his friends… I did that earlier."

"He must have failed cause he ended up with his friends." May nodded. "What if he fails all the test?"

"I promised myself if he doesn't pass at least one then I'll break up with him no matter what."

"That's a good idea." Misty said.

"Well it was Drew's idea." May covered her mouth.

"Drew, the new kid… Don't worry I won't tell." Misty said. "You two are friends?"

May nodded her head. "He's actually pretty cool. Why don't you tell me a secret since I told you mine."

"Okay. I liked Ash even since I was in the 2nd grade. He didn't know me then but I liked him ever since. He knocked into me and apologized. I've liked him ever since. Stupid huh?"

"No. I think it's cute." May said. "Did you tell him?"

"What am I supposed to say? Oh I've liked you since the 2nd grade. Do you like me back?"

"What you said was kinda mean?"

"I guess I should probably apologize."

"But I didn't say it wasn't right." May and Misty laughed together. "I might use that one."

"Which one?"

"Go play hide and go 'f' yourself." They both laughed again.

"My sister said that to her boyfriend when she seen him cheating on her." May stopped.

"I'm sorry. Did I say something?" Misty asked.

"… I know this is a weird question to ask… but… how do you know when a guy is cheating on you?"

"Do you think he is?" May nodded. "That's how you know."

The door opened.

"Misty can we talk?"

"Ash, you do this is the girls restroom?"


How'd you like the chapter? It was pretty good.
