**CHAPTER 3** ~ Friends United ~
*Ten minutes later* "How do you use these things anyway?" Sheronica asked confuzed. She flipped the surf board over and back. Aaron let out a simple laugh. "It goes this way" "Here" He gently grabbed it away from Sheronica and flipped it on the right side. Sheronica blinked. "Oooh so that's how it goes" "Yeah" He studied Sheronica. She looked at him weirdly. "What?" He looked like he was thinking and didn't say anything. He finaly noticed the gold locket she was wearing with the letter "A" carved into the middle. Now it was his turn to have the flashback. **flash back** "Hey babe!" Sheronica just stared at him.
"Hey, Aaron! When did you get here?" "Just now" He gave her a quick hug. He looked up at the bright stars overhead. "Turned out to be a nice night, huh?" She nodded. "Is that mine?" she asked. He held on tighter to the box and grinned. "No, it's for the ocean, you think it'll like it?" She rolled her eyes. "Can I have it now?" "In a few minutes" he answered. She sighed noisly and shivered dramaticly. "Jeez, it's cold." Now it was time for Aaron to roll his eyes. "Well it wouldn't have been if you had a jacket on!" He shrugged off his own and wrapped it around her shoulders. They began walking. They ended up sitting on the dock with their legs dangling in the water. "Why do you always give me gifts here?" she wondered loudly. He thought for a moment. "I dunno. The docks just... just our special place, I guess" he said. She smiled. "So... Can I have it now?" "Ok, ok!" He handed her the box and she opened it quickly. "Oh my gosh" "Aaron, it's beautiful!" He gave her a hug and smiled. It was a locket with the letter "A" carved into it. She opened it and it had a picture of them together. "That's funny" she said almost in a whisper. "What?" he questioned. Sheronica took a small paper bag out of her pocket and handed it to Aaron. He tore it open and there laid a locket with the letter "S" carved into it. He as well opened it and it had a picture of them together. **end of flashback** "I know I'm beautiful and everything but.." Sheronica got interrupted. He shook the flashback out of his head. "Where did you get that locket?" He stared at it. She put her hand over her locket and held it with her three fingers. "From a really great guy" Sheronica smiled. He walked so close to her that their noses were touching and looked in her big brown orbs. His eyes grew wide. "Sher... Sheronica Sarah Tim?!" He stepped back. Sheronica smiled at the happiness in Aaron's voice. "That's me" "Oh god.. it's you! I've missed you so much and.." He stopped and gave her a tight hug. "Aaron, Aaron, Aaron", she repeatingly said. "I.. can't.. breathe.." He suddenly stepped back. "Oh! I'm sorry! Are you okay?" She searched for breath. "Yes" Then it grew silent as they stared at eachother. Aaron started making funny faces and Sheronica blinked. "Haha, you blinked.. I win" "No fair! You were making funny faces! So that's cheating" "Since when was that a rule?" "Since now" "Heeey, you made that rule up just now" "Jeez, nothing get's past you Aaron. Does it?" Aaron let out a laugh and so did Sheronica. "Come on, I wanna show you somethin'." Aaron grabbed Sheronica's warm hand and started running across the sand as it tossed at their feet. They made it to the parking lot. Sheronica let him lead her to a turqoise, purple, and white tourbus. He swung open the door. "Ladies first" He gently helped her in. Sheronica smiled at the blonde haired guy infront of her, sleeping at the wheel. Bob Carter. She faced back to Aaron. "Girls second", she said. He made a snobby face. "Hey, I'm not no girl! Girls have cooties" He climbed in and she pushed him out of her way lightly. "Make room for the lady", she said in a british acient. He got on his knees and bowed. "Yes, your maginsty" , he said. Sheronica laughed and then became silent. "I farted" Aaron smiled. Sheronica rolled her eyes. Nothing has changed with Aaron. "NICK!!!!" She ran over to him and gave him a tight hug. "Woah, woah buddy, slow down there" Nick laughed. "Who are you?", he asked. "Yeah, who are you? How'd you get in here?" Aaron joked around as he walked away, dissapearing in his room. "It's Sheronica" "Sheronica?" Nick put on a confuzed face. "Yes" "Sheronica?" "Uh.. yeah" "Sheronica?" "Mmhmm" "Sheronica?" "Shut up", she said. Suddenly a light bulb shined brightly over Nick's head. "Sheronica!!!!" He gave her a tight hug in return. "Wad up girl?" And they talked. Like old times. Together. Nick and Sheronica. Sheronica and Nick. They always found things to talk about. Love, trust, life, singing, and everything. ** flash back** "Hey Nick?" He turned and looked at her. "Yeah Sher?" She wrung her hands together uncertainly. "Well, you know how you’re a guy?" He raised his eyebrows and thought of giving her a sarcastic response but decided to nod instead. "Well, Aaron's still really bummed about his pet dog, Skittle, passing away and he’s just… I dunno, he’s drifting away from me. It’s like he’s not even himself anymore, like he doesn’t enjoy being with me. What do you think I should get him to make him feel better?" Nick sighed and sat next to her on the couch. "Look Sheronica, Aaron's going through something that you and I don’t understand and that’s just the way it is. There’s nothing you can buy to make it up to him. The only thing you can do is be with him and if I knew Aaron a tenth as well as you do, then we both know spending time with you means more to him than anything else. Skittle has been with Aaron since he was born, and you have too." She nodded slowly and he patted her brunette head fondly before standing up and turning around. Sheronica stared at the man who gives her great advice. "Nick?" "Yeah?" He turned back around. "Thanks." He winked at her and walked out. She ran a hand through her long hair thoughtfully. ** end of flash back ** ***CHAPTER 4*** ~ Friends United ~ ~ In Aaron's room ~ "Hmm, hmm" he hummed to himeself as he studied the big poster board laying infront of him on his un-made bed. He scratched the back of his neck. "Something's missing" He searched around his small and messy, yet comftorble room hoping to find the perfect picture to replace the picture of him and Sheronica as babies. He wanted to keep that picture for it meant something special to him. He heard footsteps. "Aaron?" Aaron turned around and looked into the man's half-asleep eyes. "Yeah Dad?" Bob rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and shook his head. "Your Mom wants you on the phone" Sheronica walked up behind Bob. As soon as Aaron saw her, he jumped on his bed and pulled the covers over the board. He heard a crack. Sheronica raised her eyes. "Grrrrr, it's gonna be messed up" he thought. "Okay" He got up and pushed past Bob. He grabbed Sheronica's hand, and continued to walk. She let him lead her to a chair near the phone. "Sit" He pointed to the chair and Sheronica plopped down in it. She put her fingers sideway on her forehead and waved them down. "Yes Sargent butt sir!" She grabbed a penut butter cookie from the coffee table sitting infront of her as Aaron walked to the phone. She stared at the Backstreet Boy poster infront of her. He picked up the phone slowly. "Hello?" ~ At the beach with Emily and Corwin ~ "Emily.. Have you seen Sheronica?" "Emily?" "EMILY?!" "Hunny Bun" "Emily!!!?" He bent down on his knees and gently shook her. "Huh?! What?!" She swung up and accidently punched the breath out of Corwin. He quickly searched for breath. "Who turned off the lights?" Corwin rolled his eyes and took Emily's sunglasses off. "It's about to pour down, have you seen Sheronica? I haven't seen her anywhere" Emily looked around and shrugged. "Well, help me find her!" "You excpect mwah to walk around and find some girl who's been my best friend for four years through good times and bad when it's about to rain and she can just walk home besides us getting wet?" She swung her arms around wildly as Corwin looked at her strangely. "uh.. yes" She blinked. "Okay!" "SHERONICA????!!!!!" They went seperate ways and looked everywhere for about ten minutes. They met back at the surf board shop worried. Emily jumped at the loud thunder. "Did you find her?" he asked. "No.. does it look like I found her?" "No. I found her surf boards. I wonder why she brought both of them out.." He studied them. "Maybe because she thought you were supposed to have two surf boards to surf. I don't know but she doesn't know how to surf." Corwin looked around. Emily laughed quietly as she chose her next words. "Well, if I were her than I would bring two surf boards out too, I mean, she ways a ton and all. She wouldn't beable to fit on one board anyways" She said sarcasticly. "Ha? Ha?" Corwin said. "If you're called her fat, then your fat too. She's just one pound more than you are." Emily snapped her fingers and put her hands on her hips. "Hun, I have no fat. You see this?? You see it? This is ALL beauty. No fat." Corwin rolled his eyes at how his girlfriend can be so concieded with herself sometimes. ~ In the Tourbus ~ "Bye.." Aaron hung up the phone with a sad look on his face and walked slowly to the couch with his face towards his feet. He plopped down and ran his hand through his dirty blonde hair. He cupped his face in his hands. Sheronica got up unsurely and slowly walked to the couch. She sat next to him and stared at him for a few seconds. "Aaron.. what happened?" He looked up at her. So beautiful, so sweet, so funny, so willing to help. He had a frown on but no tears in his eyes. Sheronica wasn't surprised, he hardly ever cried. So there they were. Looking at eachother. There was an awkward silence besides for the thundering, and the sound of rain drops pouring down on the tourbus. "Well.. before I met you today, my mom was in labor. Which means.. she was going to have a baby. She was going to have a little boy.. {gulp} I was so happy. I mean, a little brother. I would be a big brother for once." He finaly said breaking the silence and their stare by looking away. He took a deep breath. "She had a miscarrige.." She didn't know what to say. She never knew what to say. Usually Aaron hardly ever was sad around her. Then, the sound of Nick's voice echoed in her ears, 'We both know spending time with you means more to him than anything else...' "Aaron?" She wasn't sure what she was going to say next. Her body felt hot, she was nervous for some reason. Aaron turned his head to look at her. Alot of things she could say ran all in her head. 'Aaron, I'm so so sorry' 'Aaron, I don't know what to say' 'Aaron, I hope she and everyone else feels better' 'Aaron, do you like cheese?' 'Aaron, I'm sorry to hear that.' She didn't know which words to choose. She felt pretty stupid at this time. Oh boy, here she goes. Here goes nothing. "Aaron.. I.. I don't know what to say. But I'm sorry" He just stared at her. Sheronica sighed and looked away. She scooted a little away from him. Now all she could hear was her heart beating loudly in her ears. He blinked. "It's okay.." Aaron put his hand over hers. His golden brown one was so much larger then her own. He smiled at Sheronica's smile that she was trying to hide. "Come over here" He gently pulled her close to him. She laid her head on his chest and he lightly laid his head on her head. Suddenly, Sheronica's head popped up and it hit Aaron's jaw. He clentched it. Sheronica remembered Emily and Corwin. "What's wrong?" "I've gotta go" Aaron shook his head slowly at her answer. He hated how stupid women always said I've gotta go when he gets close to one of them. But what surprised him was that Sheronica was acting this way. They would always climb up in their special tree and huddle so close to eachother. Sheronica always had a way of making everything seem exciting and beautiful. "Why?" "Well, my friends drove me to this beach and I forgot about them. I didn't tell them I was gonna be in here or anything. And it's raining. They probably left me! They probably couldn't find me or something! They would probably tell my Mom and Dad that they couldn't find me! They would probably-" Sheronica spoke as fast as she could. So fast that Aaron had to try and read her lips. "Sheronica! calm down!" Sheronica searched for her breath. "I need to go!" She ran to the door and swung it open. She was getting ready to run through the rain, until she felt someone pull at her arm. She turned around. Aaron. "No, don't go. Please! It's raining, and thundering, and lightning. You don't need to go out there, it's dangerous. And plus, you only have a bikinni on! Hey, you can stay here for tonight and-" He got interrupted. "Hey AC, incase you didn't know, we have to travel to Texas.. tonight. I have a big show there tomorrow!" Nick walked around Aaron and shut the door. It started hailing. The huge pieces of ice thumped loudly against the tourbus. "WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?!" Sheronica yelled over the noise of the hail. "CAN'T WE GO TO THE AIRPORT TOMORROW, EARLY IN THE MORNING? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEAAAAAAAASE?" Aaron begged. They waited for an answer. He stared at Nick with plead in his eyes. He put on his puppy face after a few seconds. Nick crossed his arms and looked out the window while he rolled his eyes. He looked back. "DON'T GIVE ME THAT PUPPY FACE, AARON CARTER!" Aaron put his lip out further and his eyes lower. "I DON'T KNOW. I NEED TO ASK DAD!!!" Nick turned around and walked into a small room. <--Back
