asked. See you know whats the sad thing about my house. The only bathroom we have is the master bathroom in James room. So you have to go in his room to go to the bathroom or bathe. Since I was nice enough to give James the Master bedroom while I slept in the other room. "yeah!" He said. I opened the door. He was sitting at his desk. "Watcha Doin?" I asked walking over to him. I leaned over his hsoulder. He was drawing which I knew was natural. "Working on My comic!" He said dully. I nodded. I placed my hands on his shoulders. "Cool." I said scanning the room. For a guy like James he was quite clean and oraganize. His room was painted red with the back wall black. His red walls though all had Black lighting bolts on them that he designed. A few posters of bands that to me freaked me out with there weird make-up and Spiky clothing. His bed had black and grey sheets and covering. He had a desk a dresser and a walk in closet that had all of his famous black clothing in it. "Well I'm going to take a shower." I said leaving him and going to the bathroom. It was a big bathroom. It had a hottub bath. A huge shower that had glass doors. It had a double sink and it was all white and gold. I knew for a fact that James hated the bathroom. Another problem we both had was the shower doors were see through. As you can see how that doesn't make life any easier. I stripped off my clothing adn hopped in. The shower was hot and relaxing. The warm water soothed my aching back perfectly. I lost track off time when I heard a banging on the door. "Hey don't use up all the hot water I still need to take a shower and you've been in there for thirty minutes get out!" James shouted. I moaned and turned off the water.

*James*
The next day after school me and Amanda were cleaning up the house a bit before movie night. We had movie night One friday night every month. "Hey James are you coming shopping with me?" Amanda asked while she put her long blound hair in a pony tail. "Why do you need to go shopping?" I asked. "Becuase we need snacks and drinks for tonight!" She said examining herself in the mirror,Uhgg Girls! I thought. "No I don't liked to be stared at by adults and be judged!" I said admitting the truth. "Please I don't wanna go by myself!" She said. I rolled my eyes. "Fine but I get to drive your car!" I said smirking. She folded her arms across her chest. "Fine but I get control over thr radio!" She said as she grabbed her keys. I sighed and followed her outside. Her covertable top was open and her necklaces hung from her rear view mirror. I shook my head and hopped in the front seat of the drivers side. As we drove on the road Amanda wouldn't stop looking at herslef in the mirror. It was straight down annoying. "Please if you wouldn't mind stop doing that it's distracting!" I said at the stop light. She stucked her tonuge out on me and turned up the music. Thanks for the memories played by fall out boy. Once she realized what song was on she turned up the volume even louder and sang along. She started moving her along and sang everysingle word. She had a good voice I could tell you that but I figured she already knew. After the song was over she whinned. "Awe that's a good swong!" She said in her baby voice I smiled and rolled my eyes as we pulled into the walmart parking lot. We hopped out of the car and walked inside. The stares were already happening. Amanda grabbed the collar of my shirt and dragged me along up and down the iles. She picked out candy, chips, soda, popcorn, and and her special drink Propel. That was her drink. If she bought it and it was in the house no one else was aloud to have except her. She was like addicted to it and she drank it constantly. We made our way to the check out. The stares blazed at us. I rolled my eyes knowing this would happen. An old couple stared me with such horror they ran out of line and to another check out lane.
I shook my head and frowned. "How do you do this I don't like being stared at!" Amanda whispered in my ear which made me shiver. The cashier stared at me with even more fear than the old couple. She looked like she was in her midtwenties. She didn't look at us at all as she scanned our items. Once she was done. She looked up at me. She gave us the amount but when she did her voice broke in the middle. Plus if it wasn't worse she was shaking. "Really am I that scary?!" I Asked as we pulled in the driveway. Amanda stepped out of the car and burst into laughter. "Did you see that old couple!!" She shouted laughing so hard she might as well explode. I shook my head and grabbed the grocerie bags and head inside. We set all the stuff on the counter and went upstairs to change. Once she was ready it was already nine o'clock. She was wearing a pair of skinny jeans and a grey spagettie strapped tank top. Her hair was let down. I change into a piar of lose blue jeans and a kiss T-shirt that happened to be my favorite T. It was already the middle of the movie. Me and Amanda got the couch while Kara and Daivd sat in the loveseat and Snake laid on his stomache His elbows holding his gave up like pillars staring at the screen. Kara and David were into the movie cause they kept shoving handfuls of popcorn in there mouth every few seconds. I looked around the living room. Candy scattered the floor. Our coffe table was sticky with soda, the place was destroyed. It always was though on movie night. After the movie was over David got up and turned on the light. I looked down to find Amanda's head resting peacefully on my lap. I didn't even know how she got there. I froze. Kara put two hands over her mouth to stop the laughter. Snake couldn't stop smirking and Daivd shook his head and rolled his eyes. "I"m going to go take a smoke!" Daivd said exiting the room. I was still staring at Amanda in my lap. She moaned and tunred her head the other way. I moaned to becuase she was now facing my crotch. Oh please God make sure she doesn't wake up I thought. "I have to get a picture of this!" Kara said searching her pockets for her cell phone. "No! Don't!' I said. She pouted but excepted that that wasn't a good Idea."Hey dude just saying you might wanna tape her mouth so that she doesn't go and suck your Junior!" Snake said as he burst into laughter. "Shut the Hell up!" I snapped. After I told them to get out I was still stuck on the couch with Amanda.
I couldn't carry her up the stairs so I descide to sleep on the floot next to the couch. I took a couch pillow and replace my lap with it. I pushed the coffe table away and made a pad on the floor. I tuned off the lights and went to sleep. I woke up with something heavy on top of me. It was Amanda. She was sleeping soundly on top of me! Her head snuggle against my chest and her amrs rapped around my neck. I Froze in place.
She moaned then snuggled closer to my chest. Her body felt tiny to mine. I had no idea why something in the back of my head kept saying you like it. Cause I don't it's not right. God Damn It Amanda what are you doing!! No wonder why she has a big bed, because if she had a skinny one she fall of. Then I wouldn't be there to coushion her fall. I turned my body sideways so we were both laying on our sides. Her blound hair covered the side of her face. My mind had no control over my body no longer. My hand gently brushed away her hair away from her cheek. I felt her wamr breath on my neck and it made me shiver from it. I gently unwound her arms from my neck and got up quickly. I had to get up before things got out of hand, or worse. Amanda waking up. God she probably blow. I instanly felt cold without Amanda by my side.
*Later That Day*
We were just driving back from our band gig. It was just me and Daivid. We already dropped of Kara and Snake so the drive home would be slience. I just pulled up at Davids apratment. He opened the car door. He got out but didn't shut the door and stood there staring at me. "You like Amanda!" and with him saying those words he slammed the car door and ran to the front door of his apartment. "What?!?" I shouted to myself. I rolled my eyes and drove away mad at Daivd for saying such a thing. People like me and Amanda don't mix. It's impossiable. She's... Well you know, girly, popular, preppy, the happy go lucky girl. As for me the Dark, carless, loner, emo, depressed boy. Boy am I confused. When I got home, the lights were off and not a sound to be heard. As I walked into the kitchen, I flicked on the lights and set my keys on the counter. There was a note from Amanda. "Gonna be at the studio for a couple more hours, have to help the juniors and little kids" I read. I sighed. Great! Just great.
