"Um , I think you got to be smart first to wear that."
Sam playfully smacks Zack on the shoulder. After leaving Khara and Shawn to their 'thing' Zack took Sam to get ice cream, then to the mall. Sam couldn't help but feel proud of herself. She wanted Khara to be with some one. After the break up with Darien, which by the way she still didn't know why they broke up, she knew Khara would feel lonely. She was that type of person,. May seem perfect with out a care in the world, but inside there are things bothering her that no one can fix.
"Hey, I'm hungry, lets go to the food court." Zack says while his eyes lingered on a poor boy who look to be extremely uncomfortable under Zack's gaze.
"But we just had ice cream."
"I know but I want some sold food in me."
"Fine, but you gotta pay for me. I'm using my money on this cute skirt." Sam says while holding a incredibly short skirt.
"fine, let your ass hang out, I don't care."
After paying for the skirt , Sam and Zack leave the store heading to he food court when some one calls out to Sam. Sam turns around only to see Darien.
"Hey Darien, I haven't seen you for a while, how are you?"
"Ok I guess. I mean I miss Khara like crazy but I don't think she will take me back." Darien makes a 'please- tell-me-I-have-another-chance-look' but all Sam does is smile sadly.
"Um, do you by any chance know where she is at the moment?"
"sh-" Zack cuts her off quickly saying,
"No we don't, I think we gotta go. Bye Darien." Zack grabs Sams arm and pulls her away. Knowing the true story between the break up, Zack acting like the big brother, didn't want Darien to go any where near Khara.
"Hey what was that about? Why didn't you want him to know where she is? Why did you have an angry look on your face when he was with us? Huh? Huh? ANSWER the Questions"
Zack sighs heavily and turns to face Sam. Thinking whether or not to tell her wasn't the problem. He knows he shouldn't tell her. Yes, she was Kharas best friend, but she still was a big mouth. Once she knew, the whole state would know about it in a day. Taking another breath he puts an arm around Sams shoulder and begins to sing. It was his way of changing the subject.
"Hey no you don't, tell me--"
You can't stop me I love the world with all its lies
You can't stop me I'm close enough to kiss the sky
keep it to myself keep it to myself
"Zack, tell me! Arg. Please tell me! I wont stop bugging you until you tell me" Sam whined.
Why are you coming out to see the road of last destination I won't look back for the shadows they're growing up to me we're trapped in this song so we leave them to head our salvation Another you another me where's the difference tell it to me
"You know what, I dislike you with a passion." Smiling Zack continues to sing his way to the food court.
"So what do you want to eat?"
"well, I wanna have some of that 'zack-tells-me-what-is-up-wih-Darien-thing'."
"Uh, I heard that that stuff taste like crap." Zack says while trying to change the subject.
"Zack please! Just tell me--" Sam stops in the middle of her sentence when her eyes met the eyes of the cashier guy.
"Hey, what would you like?"
"Uh…." All that when through Sam's head was how hott the guy behind the counter was. Zack had a triumphant smile on. Now Sam would be to distracted by the sexy cashier guy to ask about Darien. The cashier guy who name tag says Will was looking at Sam with confusion and a look that said 'damn she's hott'.
"Um, can I have the uh number seven and a small diet coke?"
"Anything else?"
"Uh, no thank you." Sam wouldn't stop smiling. When the food came she purposely bent down showing her 'cleavage' to the young boy. Smiling, Will asked one more question before Sam walked off with her food, a question Sam was waiting for.
"Hey, what's your name?" Giggling Sam and Will began to talk which ended up with her giving her number to him and vice versa. After that little scene, Sam forgot about Darien and started to talk about Will the whole time.
Kharas eyes widened with disbelief. She stopped responding to Shawns kisses and just laid there. Figuring out that Khara has stopped, Shawn lifted himself to look at Khara.
"Khara…?"
"You lied to me."
"What?"
"You lied to me. How could you? I asked you to tell me the truth and you lied through your teeth!" with out a second she pushed him off and ran out the door. Shawn sat there for a second before realizing the meant that night at the party. He jolted up and ran after her.
It was to late.
He lost her. Right when he went outside he saw no trace of her. He didn't know what to do. He got in his car and decided to just go home and hope she went there.
Khara was so grateful she knew a lot of people. After running out on Shawn, she didn't know where Sam or Zack was, so she aimlessly walked around the area when she saw an old friend of hers. She asked her for a ride and the girl said yes right away. The girl was a middle school friend, Alex. Khara and her weren't the best of friend but close enough. When Alex pulls up in Shawn Parking lot, she gave Khara a questionable look. "uh, staying with some friend while my mom is out of town." Alex nodds and waves after Khara gets out of the car. She opens the door with the spare key Shawns mom gave her before they left. After slamming the door she began to talk to herself.
"ARg! That stupid little ass whole! How could he not tell me that I practically threw my self at him.gosh I'm never drinking ag--" Khara stopped abruptly when she noticed some one starring at her with a mouth full of food.
"Uh…sorry, but either me or you is in the wrong house…"
Shocked as ever, Khara just starred at a man with her mouth slightly open. She couldn't help but notice he looked a lot like Shawn. Same height but he was more built, while Shawn were those guys who hid there muscles under clothes, this guy had muscles no one can ignore. He wasn't like those body builder, but almost. Maybe it was b/c he was barley wearing a shirt. Same face, but his was more mature, whiles Shawn had that boyish look to him. He was the 20 year old version of Shawn.
"Uh, hi…I'm--"
"Gab!"
Khara turns around to see Shawn coming up to them. "Hey man, what you doin here?"
"Oh thought I might see how my lil cuz was doin. And from the looks of it," Gab looks at Khara "your doing pretty good ." Shawn looks at Khara and sees Khara hold back a smile.
"Uh, Gab this is Khara, she is staying here while our moms went on a vacation together, Khara this is my cousin Gabriel." Gab walks up to Khara and takes a hold of her hand, and smoothly kisses her hand.
"Its nice to meet you Khara. " Khara blushes.
After that an awkward silence fallowed. Each person looking at each other hoping some one would talk.
"well this is weird, are we just stare at each other or what? Lest do something to celebrate!"
"celebrate what?"
"well the new friendship with the beautiful girl I just made!" Khara knew right away that she would like this guy. His behavior and his style were the complete opposite from Shawns. Gab was the loud and outspoken when Shawn was quite and to himself. Gab was openly flirty and Shawn just kept his feelings to himself. Gab was basically a prep and Shawn, well how can we explain him? You cant call him emo because he wasn't like that. He was a mix between skater, goth and punk. So when you put the two next to each other its like deciding either to go with the bad, or with the good. Light and dark, Dangerous or safe.
"I say we should go to apple bees!" Gab said happily. He looks at Khara waiting for her to approve or disapprove. When she smiled he garbs her arm and Shawns and walked out together, getting stuck at the door. That why doors where made for one person to go through.
When reaching apple bees, Khara remembers about Shawn. She totally forgot she was mad at him. She was to distracted with gab. He was so fascinating. Just comparing them was a game. The whole time at apple bees Gab and Shawn were talking about music and fighting about which style was better. They tried to add her in but she would just smile and continue to watch . As they were heading out, Khara kept noticing Gab trying to be close to her, or touch her. Not in the perverted way, just a brush of the shoulder ,glide of the hand type of thing.
What she also noticed was that she wasn't the only one noticing it.
