At noon that afternoon, me, Abbie and our parents crammed into our little car and drove to the hospital where Andie was staying. It was sort of a surprise. She knew I was coming home, but she didn't know exactly when.

So when we got up to her room, and walked in, she just about screamed. She bolted up in her bed, smiling from ear to ear.

"Fay! You're here!" she yelled, practically jumping out of the hospital bed. I ran to her and gave her a huge hug."I'm so glad you're back!" she continued.

"How are you, Andie? You feeling better?" I asked her, pulling away from the hug to look at her. She didn't look very good. And she shook her head "no".

"I don't feel too good. But it's ok, now that you're here. I'm so glad you're here." she said, hugging me again. I suddenly realized how glad I was that I came home. "But I'm sorry you had to leave just to come see me. Did you get in trouble?" she wondered cutely. I smiled again.

"No, not at all. It's ok, Andie. We actually have two days off, today and tomorrow. I have to leave tomorrow night, though." I told her. She nodded, sitting back down. Then she started coughing again. That was one of the horrible symptons of what she had.

"Did the doctors say when you can come home?" Abbie asked Andie, concerned about her twin. Sometimes they acted like they were one, mostly when one of them was sick. Abbie was scared to death for her sister.

"Next week. They have to start all my medication again." Andie sighed. She hated medicine. And I hated seeing her look so sad and sick.

For the rest of the afternoon, we just talked. The five of us, like a family. Although it was all about me and the tour. Andie got really mad when I started talking about Aaron. I knew she'd do anything to meet him. She even liked him more than Abbie did. That gave me a couple of ideas. I talked about everything that I'd already told my parents and Abbie, but they didn't mind hearing it again. And I brought all the pictures to show Andie too. She looked really happy all afternoon, and I liked that. I liked when she was smiling.

But when it was about 4pm, we decided we should leave so Andie could get some more rest. She didn't mind staying in the hospital alone. She could just go down to the children's room and talk to the other kids. But she didn't want me to leave her today. She almost cried when I said we should. I felt so bad that I couldn't stay with her all night. But I knew that Kent was expecting me.

"Sorry sweetie, I'm going over to Kent's soon, he's waiting for me. I'll come back and be with you all day tomorrow, ok?" I asked her. She nodded sadly.

"Ok, Fay, have fun at Kent's." she finished, and wrapped her arms around my neck. I hugged her back, right before we left her room. I still felt bad, but I knew she'd be ok.

*Ten Minutes Later*

My dad just dropped me off at Kent's on the way home. I got out of the car, after saying goodbye, and ran up to his front door excitedly. He lived with his dad and his little brothers, but usually spent most of his time here, at his best friend Trey's house. Trey was 22, and lived with his girlfriend Ashleigh. Dare and I used to spend alot of time with Trey, Ash and Kent, at Trey's house, a few months ago. So I excited to go there again, and hang out with normal friends, not famous friends, like on tour.

When the door opened, I saw Ashleigh. She shrieked and hugged me tightly.

"Fay!" she yelled, "You look awesome, girl!" Ashleigh was 21, and alot more mature that me. She was really pretty, too.

"Wow, Ash, you too! I haven't seen you in like, a few weeks, huh?" I asked her. We didn't any time for anything for the past few weeks.

"Yeah, I think about a month. Wow, come on in." she said, leading me into the huge house. "Trey and I are actually going out soon, but you and Kenny can hang out." she informed me. I nodded. I couldn't wait to see Trey.

"Fay!" Trey screamed as he ran into the room. I hadn't seen him a long time, either. He was so hot. He was really tall, I mean tall. He was about 6'5. He had dark blond hair, and green eyes. He just has this look to him, he's so gorgeous.

"Trey!" I yelled back, running into his arms. He wrapped his huge arms around me. It felt so good. "You're looking hot, girl... you got yourself a guy yet?" he asked cutely. I just nodded at him. Now where was Kent?

"Hey babe... I missed you!" Kent yelled, running into the room behind Trey. I hugged him hard. He was like one of my best friends, too.

"I missed you too, Kenny!" I replied, looking into his eyes. He had beautiful eyes.

"We should go, guys, my mom is expecting us right away." Trey spoke up, breaking the silence. I grinned.

"Oh my God, are you going to get Aranka? Are you bringing her here?" I screamed.

Aranka was Trey's daughter. Not with Ashleigh though. Aranka is 2-years-old. Her mother died in a car accident when she was only four months old. Barria, Aranka's mother, and Trey were highschool sweethearts. They'd been dating for three years before Barria got pregnant. But they weren't scared. They loved each other. They moved in together when Aranka was born. They were just like a family, and they were Trey and Barria were planning to get married, in the future, even though they weren't engaged. Trey was 20 years old, Barria was 18, and little Aranka was 4 months, when Barria was killed. We were all devestated for months. It took Trey almost a whole year to fully recover. Well, I know he'll never really get over it, he'll always love Barria, forever. But we encouraged him that he should start dating again, because that's what Barria would want him to do. He finally agreed after awhile, and that's when he met Ashleigh. Now they've been going out for about six months, and they are really happy. Aranka lives with them, but spends alot of time with Trey and Barria's parents, her grandparents.

"Yes, we're going to get her. But we're taking her out for dinner with some friends... I asked if you two wanted to come, but Kenny, here, said he wanted to stay in with you." Trey laughed. I grinned at Kent.

"Alright, well bring her back later so I can see her, I miss her so much!" I yelled again.

"Of course we will." Ashleigh finished. I hugged them again, before they left the house, leaving me Kent alone.

"So, what should we do?" I asked Kent, looking at him in his eyes again.

"You wanna just go talk?" he asked back. I nodded.

So we went and sat down in the living room, on one of the huge couches. I swear, Trey must be rich. I smiled at Kent again, not really knowing what to say.

"Uh, Dare misses you alot. She was so jealous that I got to come see you and she didn't." I told him, laughing. He cracked a smile.

"Ha, well I'm really glad you're back." he replied. I gave him a weird look, but smiled. "How's Andie? She's gonna be ok?" he asked, changing the subject.

"Yeah, yeah, she'll be fine. Doctors just want to watch over her for awhile." I told him.

"Good, tell her I hope she feels better." he said. I nodded.

"I will." I finished.

We were both silent for what seemed like forever. But it wasn't awkward. It was a nice silence.

"So, does Dare really miss me, or what?" he asked. I was shocked that he'd ask that.

"Of course she does. She's always whining about it." I grinned. He smiled again.

"Oh, well, on the phone it seems like she just wants to say 'hi' and then she's gotta go. It's like she's too busy for me." he said cutely. He didn't sound too sad about that, though.

"No, no... sure, we're busy, but she loves you. She always says she wishes you were with us." I told him.

"Oh... well..." he started, and I knew he wasn't done, "I'm with you now." he finished.

"Yes, yes you are." I replied, and hugged him again. "You know, you're like one of my best friends now. You're so good to Dare, and... you're just awesome." I told him.

"Well you are too. I... I really like you, Fay..." he said. I wasn't sure what he meant by that, so I didn't reply. He was just staring into my eyes. He looked really cute, actually. Suddenly, and unexpectedly, he leaned in close to me and pressed his soft lips against mine. I immediately pulled away and looked at him, disgusted.

"What the hell are you doing?" I screamed, moving further away.

"I-I'm sorry, Fay..." was all he could say. He just stared back at me, as shocked as I was.

"Why the hell did you do that? I have a boyfriend, and you have a girlfriend... oh yeah, she just happens to be my best friend." I yelled, standing up.

"I said I'm sorry, Fay, I didn't mean to. I'm just really lonely and bored here, without her. Who are you going out with?" he asked, changing the subject. I just gave him an angry look, and then looked away. "I'm sorry, please, come on..." he started begging.

"No, I can't...do this... I can't believe you'd do this to Dare, to me!" I yelled, walking away from him.

"Fay!" he screamed, running after me, "I'm sorry, I can't be more sorry. I don't know why I did that. I miss Dare, and, you know, I haven't kissed anyone in almost a week, and it's driving me crazy." he said.

"Oh, so you're using me, is that is?" I turned back to him. He gave me a sad look.

"No! Fay, I mean it, I'm sorry. I'd never cheat on Dare, I love her-" he started, but I cut him off.

"That's hard for me to believe right now." I replied angrily.

"Well, I do. What do you expect from me? I'm 22, and my girlfriend is travelling across the fucking country, without me." he said sadly. I almost gave in then.

"I know, Ken, I know that. But she's having a hard time with it, too. You're not the only one who is suffering from this." I told him. He nodded.

"I know... I'm so sorry... please, forgive me...? And don't tell Dare?" he asked sadly.

"I'll forgive you... but I have to tell Dare. I can't keep anything from her, especially not this." I told him.

"Ok, fine. Now... will you still stay and watch a movie with me?" he asked changing the subject again.

"Yes, but only because I want to see Aranka." I joked with him. He pretended to look sad, but he knew I was just kidding.

*3 hours Later*

Just as the movie (our favorite, Titanic) was ending, the front door opened and Trey and Ash came in. Trey was carrying his daughter. She was so adorable, I freaked out when I saw her. I stayed for awhile longer, talking with Ash and Trey, and playing with Aranka.

Kent drove me home just after 9pm. It was still a little awkward between us, but I was desperately trying to make it not weird. We talked more on the way home. I was actually starting to forget that he kissed me. Maybe I wouldn't tell Dare after all.
