"AHHHH!"
"Whoa sorry, D told me to come wake up up" Nicks cheeks turned bright red.
"No I'm sorry.You just scared me. It's okay." She put her hand on his arm but pulled it away quickly.
Why'd did she pull away? Did she feel it too? That's right Carter, you're a loser. But don't forget your girlfriend too His smile faded.
"Tell Howie I'll be there in a minute I...uh...gotta brush my hair K?" She smiled at him.
"Sure" Nick walked solemly down the stairs.
"Yo Frack what's wrong?"
"Nothing Kevin. Nothing." Kevin just shrugged his shoulders and let Nick continue.
"Morning everyone"
"Sleep well Becca?" Howie whispered in her ear.
"The best in years" She smiled.
"We're all leavin'. Bye you all. See ya soon" Kevin said before walking out the door.

"Becca ya ready to go?" Claud called from the bottom of the stairs.
"Yeah I'm coming!" The three piled into the car and headed off to the mall.
~~~~~~~~~
"Okay where to first Becca?" Howie asked.
"Ummm...Let's go to Wetseal"
"Let's go!"

After Becca had practicly bought the entire store they went to get lunch.
"Give me some mulah D. I'm going over there." She pointed to Chick-Fil-A.
"K. Me and Claud will meet ya"
"BECCA!" Someone yelled for her. Not quite sure who it was she turned around. Brian montioned for her to join them.
"Hey ya here with D?" AJ asked.
"Yeah"
"Tell um to get their butts over here"
"I will" She giggled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Howie they're here. They all want us to meet them"
Sensing her fear he asked "Are you sure?"
"Yeah it's just...when Nick came in my room this morning I put my hand on his arm and I felt a little more than I had expected. So I pulled away and he got his sad look like he lost his best friend"
"It's okay. He just doesn't understand. You never know. You two could hook up" Becca playfully hit his arm.
"Isn't he taken though?"
"Yeah but obviously they don't feel anything for each other or he wouldn't have reacted like he did"
"I guess you're right"
"Aren't I always?"
"Whatever"
"So why are yall here?" Nick asked as they sat down.
Howie hesitated but Becca answered. "I'm moving in with Howie"
"Oh" Nick replied.
"So are you coming to our rehersal Becca?" Kevin asked.
"Sure, I guess so"
"Great well, see y'all later"
"Bye Rok"
Once they were out of sight Howie asked Becca if she really wanted to go.
"Yeah I'll be fine" So I hope
