We're Home
"Hey Isaac is Taylor home." Joey asked as Isaac answered the Hanson's front door.
"Um no. Do you want to come in."
"Well yea I guess." Joey walked into the living room and sat down on the couch. "So where is everyone."
"Lets see. Taylor went some where with his friend. Zac went with Dad to a doctors appointment and mom took everybody else to the mall."
"So you got the house to yourself."
"Yea. Its nice." Isaac sat down in the recliner. "So is there anything you want to do."
"Not really."
Isaac looked outside the window. It was a warm late sunny summer day. "Do ya wanna go outside and walk in the woods."
"That sounds fine to me."
Joey and Isaac got up and walked outside.
"When do we leave for LA." Joey asked Isaac picking up a long stick.
"I think in 2 weeks. After Labor Day."
"I want to thank you for letting me come with you guys. I have never been to LA. It is so cool getting to play backup with you."
"Hey its our pleasure. You are really cool to be around."
"Its cool to be around you too." Joey sat down on a tree trunk that had fallen. "My life as been so much better ever since I met you guys."
"What do you mean by that." Isaac sat down beside her.
"I mean that I really hated my life. Things were never going right. I hated the people at school. My family was always at me and just about everything else. I was so upset when I found out that we were leaving Atlanta. I didn't want to move. I didn't want to have to start over again." A tear was slowly escaping from her eye.
"Wow I didn't know you had felt that way." Isaac leaned closer to her.
"Yeah I did. But then that day that I ran into Zac. I was so shocked. Then Taylor asked me out. I was like wake me up I am dreaming. But I wasn't. Ever since I have known you guys you have made my life so much happier. I feel better bout myself and I know that people care about me now." Joey looked Isaac in the eyes revealing that she was now crying harder.
"Shhh. Its OK." Isaac put his arm around.
"Isaac. I'm glad I got you as a friend."
"I'm glad I got you as a friend too."
"Hey Zac can I ask you something."
"Sure. What is it Isaac."
"Can I ask you a personal question."
"What kind of personal question." Zac asked with a suspicious look.
"About a girl. About Joey."
"What about Joey." Zac paused. "She's out with Taylor tonight."
"I know. I want to know what you feel about her."
"She's like my bestfriend. I love her." "Did I just say I love her. I can't let him know what I really think even though his my brother."
"You love her." Isaac questioned.
"Yeah. You know." Zac studderd. "As friends. Like I love you."
"Are you sure about that Zac."
"Yes I'm sure. Why are you asking me this. What. Oh no. You don't like her do you."
"No. Well yea kinda. OK so I like her allot. Today we were out talking in the woods she started to tell me about her life in Atlanta. She was crying so I hugged her. Thats when I guess I started to really have feelings for her."
"Oh man. Isaac this is not good."
"I know"
"Ike she is going out with Taylor. I know for a fact that she really cares for him and loves him. And Taylor feels the same why about her."
"I know"
"You are going to have to find a way to get rid of these feelings. It is not going to work with us spending 2 months her."
"I know but I can't. I have liked her ever since I first meet her." Isaac felled back on Zac's bed. "Zac what should I do."
"I don't know." Zac left his room and walked down to the kitchen. "Hey Mom"
Diana was setting at the kitchen drinking a cup of coffee. "Hey Zac. What are you doing."
"Nothing. Mom can I ask you a question."
"Yeah. Sit down. What is it.
Zac sat down across from his mom. " OK you see. There is this guy and he really likes this girl the only problem is that this girl is going out with on of his best friends. What should this guy do."
"Well thats sounds like a complicated situation. Who are this people."
"Oh. They are just friends of mine and the guy asked me for advice and I didn't know what to say."
"Ok. well if this girl really likes the guy she is dating then I think the other guy should accept it and maybe just be friends with this girl and just let things happen naturally."
"Thanks mom that helps allot."
"I hope your friend figures everything out."
"Oh yeah I hope he does too."
"wait zac. Where is Taylor."
"Didn't he tell you he went out with Joey."
"No he didn't. Where did they go."
"Don't know."
"OK you can go now."
"See ya Mom." Zac went back upstairs to find Isaac.
"Hey Ike." Zac walked into Isaac's room. "I think I know what you need to do to get over Joey."
"What is it Zac. I am never going to get over her."
"Isaac yes you are. She is just on little crush out of a million other ones you are going to have. What you have to do is just accept the fact that she is going out with Taylor and thats the way its gonna be. You no they are not gonna stay together forever. They are only 15. You just have to give it time"
"Zac you're right but its gonna be hard."
"You have no idea how hard it is Ike."
