chapter 6
" hello?"
" hey nate. it's dave."
nate, a tall skinny swimmer with spiky blonde hair, groaned and rolled over in his bed, almost pulling of the phone from it's perch on a nightstand beside his bed. " why do you always call so early?" he groaned again.
" uh, nate, it's 4:30 PM."
" oh."
" listen, you know my old girlfriend, laura?"
" how could i not?"
" shut up."
" whatever, just get to the point."
" yeh. you're good with girls, right?"
" i guess so. if you don't count the whole ani thing......"
" how do i get her back?"
" ani?"
dave sighed impatitiantly. " no, laura. are you high or something?"
" nope, just being an ass. just charm her with you lovely smile. i have to go. bye." he hung up, leaving dave staring at the phone with a frown on his face.
slinging her bag over her shoulder, sam hurried down the narrow airplane aisle. somehow, she'd gotten out before trent. she had to get laura away from here fast. stepping off the plane, she scanned the airport. she walked past a few groups of people waiting for their families.
" sam!" she spun around. alex threw his arms around her.
" hey, " she said hugging him quickly before pushing him away and looking to see if laura was there. " where is everyone else?"
" oh. laura's with daniel, at his house. they said they're planning some kind of suprise....uh, cassie, ben, chris, and laura's two friends are hanging out at our house. why? not happy to see me?"
" yeh, i'm happy to see you, but we have to get out of here fast." she grabbed his sleeve and dragged him to the baggage claim area, hoping that trent wouldn't be there.........
" what'd you tell alex we were going to do?" laura asked, climbing out of daniel's jeep and following him up to the front door of his house. he unlocked it and they went inside.
" i told him we had to.....i forgot."
laura grinned. " the phone's ringing."
daniel rolled his eyes. " hello?"
" hey....is laura there?"
" uhh...yeh, sure." he frowned, confused. " it's for you." he handed her the phone.
" hello?"
" laura! my god....it took me forever to get through. it's ty."
" ty?" her face paled. " i thought you were...."
" yeh, i know. i just found out that kris lied to you. " he sighed. " look, we really need to talk...."
" why are you rushing? we've got plenty of time." alex jogged behind sam. he was carrying her huge suitcase and still managing to run.
" no we don't. i didn't want you to freak out in there, but trent was on the plane with me."
" trent?" sam cringed at the sound of his voice.
" yes, come on."
" wait a minute. you're really just going to let him follow you and get to laura? are you kidding me?"
" look alex, trent wasn't anywhere behind us or - "
" sam! he's probably listening to our conversation!" he lowered his voice. " do you see him?"
" yes alex, i see him." she rolled her eyes. " let's go! my god, why don't we just wait here another hour and get ourselves killed!" she exclaimed sarcastically.
" we just have to find a way to lose him..."
" oh my god." laura whispered, pressing the off button on daniel's cordless phone.
" what? who was that."
" my brother." they were silent for a moment.
" your brother."
" yeh.....kris told me he was in europe." she looked dazed, as if she were just waking up.
" c'mon, lets go sit down." daniel gently guided her to a chair. " i didn't know you had a brother." he sat down next to her.
" yeh, not many people do. he's twelve years older than me."
" so he's thirty-one?"
" yeh....he's in this band with a bunch of his friends, i guess. kris told me they were in europe for a few years, that's why he never calls."
" where was he?"
" here."
" in australia?"
" yeh. that's why he called. he wanted to see me."
" are you going to?"
" i don't know."
" are you ok?"
" no....."
