Caleb

Running errands is pretty ok I guess. I just gotta pick up my dads meds, a couple of movies and some more things from the store. I could be doing nothing and just wait for eight o'clock to make its way around so I could go to Nikki's with the fellas but that would just take longer I suppose. Not like I could push time forward... or could I. No, no. I'm not gonna do that.

My random thoughts were broken by the sound of my phone going off in the seat beside me. It's Pouge. "Sup man?"

"It's about that surge we felt last night." Was his first response to my greeting.

"I wonder if Tyler felt it."

Pouge sighed over the line, I could hear drills and shit going in the background, he must be getting his Ducati looked at. "Look, I know what you're thinking, but that was way to powerful to have been Reid even with how much he uses. I'm telling you something weird is going on."

I had to give it to him, that power surge we felt last night was way to big to be any of us but I still have my doubts. "Alright I'll-" A shriek came from my passangers seat and I looked over. A fucking Darkling! I was so concerned about it that I didn't notice the log truck until the last minute. I had to use to when the truck hit my car so that it would explode then reshape back on the road without hurting me or the other driver. When I did I turned back to the Darkling but he was gone.

"Caleb? Caleb! What the hell just happened? What was that noise? Caleb?"

I picked up the phone still trying to catch my breath. "Darkling."

"... What?"

"There was a Darkling in my car. I almost died."

"Who the hell would send you a Darkling?"

"I don't know but listen, we'll talk about it later." We both agree and I hang up, even with this new development, I still had shit to do unfortunatly.

Amanda

Is this Ipswich's only store. It's like Walmart had to down grade for a small town, the only things missing are the toy, electronics, and home improvement sections. I just needed a couple of things from the store, I didn't think twice about Kate offering to give me a ride, maybe I should have. Kate was going on and on in my ear about some Brad Pitt movie she had tricked me into seeing, I could care less about Brad Pitt and there are hotter guys out there than him, Sarah who was still upset that I told her off yesterday was acting like I didn't exsist. Not like it bothered me cause I act like she isn't here all the time.

I was looking at the first aid aisle cause I'm a clutz and I need a lot of bandaids, when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I quickly turn around and find another person I've been trying to avoid. Chase. "Hey there Amanda. Funny running into you here."

Did he really just say that? 'Funny running into you here'? What is he some bad 1940's movie? "Hi Chase... yeah just her with Kate and Sarah... pickin up some stuff... going to a movie." I honestly didn't know what to say to this guy.

"I know." That raised a questioning brow. "Oh, Kate invited me." I slowly turn to Kate. She smiles and gives me a thumbs up. I see her game, she's trying to hook me up with Chase, well that's just never gonna happen. I give her the stink eye and turn back to Chase.

"Listen. I don't know-"

"Amanda?" Another voice? Ooh, I know this voice!

"Hi Caleb!" I turn around and see him in all his delicious, tanleyness looking just good enough to eat. Yum. "Hey, what's up?"

"Nothing. Pickin up my moms meds, running some errands and such. You?"

I look at Kate and smirk, I just found my way out of this. "Picking up some stuff, Kate tricked me into going to some crappy Brad Pitt flick."

I heard her yelling 'Hey!' but I paid her no mind really. Caleb chuckled. "You have to be the only girl I know who's not obsessed with Brad Pitt. But, you know if you don't wanna go you could come do errands with me. Might be a little boring but it's better than..." He looked around at Kate then Sarah then Chase. "The movie."

"Sure."

Sarah stepped infront of me into Caleb's face. "I could go too, I've seen this movie like five times."

Caleb looked as if he was trying to figure out her name before stepping around her and pulling me along. "It's ok. You should go, you seem to like it if you've seen it that many times. Anyways, my car only seats two."

Ouch. That would sting if it wasn't funny as hell.

"Let me just pay for this and we're good to go."

Band-Aids - $2.59

Chocolate bar - $1.07

Sarah's face when Caleb blew her off - FUCKING PRICELESS

The drive to where ever Caleb was taking me was so relaxing, way better than seeing some stupid ass movie with a stupid ass girl and a creepy ass guy... oh and Kate. He had the top down on his car and the wind flowing through my hair made me feel so good that I threw my hands up in the air and gave a little yell.

Caleb laughed at my goofyness. "Happy, huh?"

"Yes!" I squeel. "Thank you for getting me the hell out of there. Kate tried to set me up with Chase."

I saw his eyebrow quirk and he gave me a little look from the side of his eye. "Well don't worry about it Kate likes to meddle. She probably thinks you need somebody, as usual."

"Doesn't matter." I shrug. "Because I have somebody." I smiled at him and once he realized i was talking about him he smiled back at me.

We pulled up to this house that looked kind of old but well taken care of. Surrounded by trees and green lush grass made it look beautiful, if you slapped a little paint on it. Caleb got out of the drivers seat and was telling me to stay there. The door shut and a horribly loud 'BANG' went out across the silent sky. I let out a scream and ducked down in the seat with my hands protecting my head. "Gorman! Gorman, it's me!"

Caleb held his hands up in the air with the bag of meds in one hand. "Whose that with you?" a man yelled from what I think was the house. I couldn't see anything through the open door but blackness and the barrell of a shotgun.

"This is my friend Amanda! She's gonna stay in the car!"

He gave me the wait sign and walked slowly into the house. What else could I do but sit in the car and wait? A minute went by when I felt something crawl on my arm. Thinking that it was just a hair I shook my arm, not paying it much attention. Until I feel a painful prick on my wrist. I quickly looked down and saw a small spider sitting on where the pain has come from, I flick it away and hold my wrist. There was a teeny-tiny, bright red mark on the inside of my wrist where the spider bit me and I rubbed it to soothe the pain, it was like I had been stabbed by a hot needle.

"What's the matter?"

I jumped at the sound of Calebs voice and threw my hand over my heart as he jumped back into the car. "A uh... a baby spider must of fell out of a tree and it crawled onto my wrist and bit me."

"Let me see." I held out my wrist and let him inspect it, his cool hands made the fire stop and the pain go away. "It doesn't look like it's to serious. There are no poisonous anything around here so you're ok." He brought my wrist close to his face and put a kiss on it. He was so cute it made me smile. "Let's hang till it's time to go to Nikki's, ok?"

What could I say about Nikki's? It's the kids place to hang out. It's actually the only place to hang out in Ipswich. But I don't mind I'm not into big places anyways and it was a dark smokey bar like place, so I dig it pretty good. The only ones of the group that were there was Caleb, Reid, Tyler and myself. Pogo-Stick is gonna be here any minute and Kate and Sarah were going to drive up with Chase.

Chase. Creepy dude.

I shivered when I thought about him. Earlier that day I caught him staring at me a little harder than the ordinary person should but I tried to brush it off. I mean the guy was new just like me he was probably trying to remember my face or something. Caleb felt my shiver at the thought of Chase. He looked over to me and asked if I was ok, I gave him a smile and a kiss his cheek for being concerned about me. He didn't know what it was for but I don't exactly think he cared either.

Tyler and Reid left to go con some poor chump out his trust fund money and Caleb went to get us a nibble to eat and I was left alone. Then Kate-Bear and The Thing walked in with Chase. I waved them over after I sat my giant purse in Caleb's seat that no one would take it. "Hey how was the movie?" I ask as Kate hugs me from across the table.

"It was great!" She squeals. "Two whole minutes of shirtless Brad Pitt. Mmm! Could it get any hotter?"

"A whole night of shirtless boyfriend?" came Pouge's reply as he walked past Kate and planted a kiss on her cheek. She gave me a look and wiggled her eyebrows, she was just trying to get under his skin, which I didn't really agree with. If you're with someone who loves you as much as Pouge does, why in the world would you want to make him jealouse. I didn't really much understand Kate's way of thinking so I shook my head at her disapprovingly and she just rolled her eyes at me like my oppinion was stupid. "Hey Panda." Pouge mussed my hair.

"Don't touch the good stuff Pogo-Stix."

Caleb came back with our food and slapped Pouge's hand away from my head as I patted my hair down. "You play with your own hair young man." he said in a playful voice that made Pouge laugh. Apperantly people had been telling him that for a while. "So how's the Cati?"

"It's good. How was your day Kate?" Pouge looked at Kate with suspicion. Of course he knows what she's doing, he's not stupid.

Kate smirked. "Well... Amanda was supposed to come to movie with us but Sarah and Chase kept me in good company."

Pouge snorts and gets up from his chair glaring at Chase. "I bet he did."

Caleb and Pouge ended up going to play some foozeball and Cbase wanted winner so me, Sarah and Kate were left together at the table. How did this happen? I didn't come here to be left with a girl I hate and a girl whose friendship I'm putting into question, I came here for Caleb and he leaves me for a game? No, no. Not happening.

I took a quater out of my pocket and head over to the Jukebox that I saw when I walked in earlier. I'm gonna make this boy pay.

Caleb

"So what's up with you and Amanda?" Chase asked me.

The guy was cool and all but I had noticed that he usually shows up out of nowhere, which is weird, but it's not a crime. I have a feeling that he's got a crush on Amanada but who wouldn't. Pouge laughed at Chase's question. "Don't you know? Caleb is this close to making her his woman." He puts his fingers close together with a little space between them. I heard a new song playing, I Love Rock and Roll or some crappy song like that, didn't really care. I felt someone elbowing my side and looked up from my game with Chase and at Pouge who was pointing at something on the other side of the room. I look up.

There was Amanda rocking that hot ass body to the music like she was the first time we met. Her eyes were locked on me as the music flowed from the Jukebox, she was drawing me in and I had no problem with it. I walked up to her on the dance floor and just like the first night we met I brought her body close to mine and we grinded together. People watched as we danced, staring, guys wishing to be me, girls wishing to be her. "You're turning me on again baby."

She bit her lip and giggled. "You know later," She turned chest to chest and whispered in my ear, "I could get you off."

All I got to do was smirk in response because I heard yelling coming from the pool table and saw Reid and Tyler fighting Aaron and his friend that threw up on him at the party. They all went outside and me and Pouge followed. "Stay here." I called to Amanda. When we got outside Aaron and Reid were arguing over money and sizing each other up. I had to jump in before Reid decked the dumb boy but luckily Nikki came out, with a baseball bat might I add, and broke it up, leaving me, Tyler, Pouge and Reid outside to deal with each other. "What the hell was that all about?"

"Aaron lost a bet, I had it handled." Reid shrugged like it was no big deal. "I made a shot that would be... other wise... impossible."

"You used in public?" I almost yelled. I had to keep my voice down.

Of course Tyler came to the blond boy's rescue. "Hey, Aaron was a sucker for it."

"Don't you idiots get it! You can't just use when ever you want, this shit is addictive!"

Our arguement seemed to get more angry until Reid used to choke me. I will admit it hurt like hell but I used with just as much force and sent him back. He tried to throw an empty keg at me but I threw it right back sending him flying into a wall of class bottles. Reid goes back inside with Tyler not far behind after I acuse him of using in public before, he says he didn't but I didn't believe him. "I think Reid is telling the truth." Pouge says.

"It has to be him. You and me aren't doing it, Tyler's to chicken shit to lie to my face."

"Caleb?" I turn to find Amanda standing in the doorway of Nikki's. "Is everything alright? I saw Reid come in covered with glass I thought something happened."

I walked up to her and put a kiss on her lips, those soft, moist, plump... Ahem, anyways. "Nah babe. Everything's under control." I looked into her beautiful blue eyes and just saw the want in them, a beautiful lust that felt all consuming. "Uh... Pouge, me and Amanda are gonna go to my place."

Pouge looked between me and Amanda before smirking. "Y'all have fun then." He walked pass us and went inside. We walked pass him and headed to my car.

Next chapter is gonna get a little naughty... who the hell am I kidding, it's gonna get straight up filthy yo!
