After a while of talking outside “2 Scoops,” we decided to go to the CD store to look around. “The new boy band sweeping the country, Dream Street, is overseas, giving them a taste of their variety of songs, and personalities. More news to come!” the entertainment reporter announced in the TV that was hanging over the register. “God, I miss him…” I sighed. “We all do, hun,” Court said as she picked up the Michelle Branch CD.
I got home at about 9:30 and to my surprise, no one was home. So took out my house key and walked into my empty house and hung my little over jacket on the post. All the sudden, the light on the stereo turned on, and “You Are Not Alone” by Michael Jackson started to play. “What the…?” I walked towards the stereo, and I felt someone come behind and put their arms around me. I let out a sigh “I’m so glad you’re home” I said as I turned around and slow danced in the dark. Then he leaned down and we kissed. Just then the lights turned on. “LAUR-“ the person stopped talking. I turned over to see that it was Greg standing by the door with a shocked look on his face. I turned back around to see whom I’d been dancing with. “JIMMY?!?” My jaw dropped. “How did you get into my house?!?” I raised my voice, that’s when Greg knew that I hadn’t exactly planned this out.
(Jimmy and I have a really bad history, we’ve never gotten along; Greg knows all of this. He’s the kind of guy who only goes after you if you’re taken, kind of like the whole “forbidden fruit” thing. He always tries to get some other guys’ girlfriend by being all sweet to her, but then as soon as he gets her, he dumps her. I’m not the kind of girl to do that, and Jimmy KNOWS that. And as soon as he found out about how Greg and I are, for some reason, he’s been more determined than ever…and I can’t figure out why.)
“You left your back door unlocked..” he started. “I keep that unlocked for my little brother when he comes home, NOT for someone to break in. I could so call the cops on you right now for breaking and entering,” I was really starting to get pissed off. “What? You mean, you didn’t LIKE that?” he got that smile on his face; the kind where you KNEW he was up to something. “You’re right Greg, this one knows what she’s doing all right…” he laughed. That’s when Greg lost it. “I SWEAR!” he lunged at Jimmy, totally ready to swing at him at any moment. That’s what I jumped in the way. “GREG! STOP!” I stood in front of Greg. “See, now she wants to protect me,” Jimmy got up and got that annoying smile on his face again. I turned around. “First off..don’t think for one second that I’m trying to ‘save’ you from him..but I know that he’s better than that, and I’m not gonna let him stoop to your level,” Greg had a shocked look on his face; he’d never seen me that open with someone I wasn’t really fond of. Jimmy walked over to me slowly, and I could see Greg beaming him down with his eyes. “I’ll see you around..” he said as he walked out and shut the door behind him.
As soon as the door was shut, I ran over and gave Greg the biggest hug and kiss. “Hey,” he said with a gleaming smile all over his face; even his eyes were sparkling. I backed away and we were just standing there, and he was holding me in his arms again. “HEY!” I gave him another quick hug. “When did you get back?” I pulled his arm and led him over to the couch. “A couple days ago, I came here to surprise you but umm..someone had beat me to it,” he looked down. “I thought it was you and when you came in the door, I uhh, realized that it wasn’t” I laughed.

“So…do you think Greg told Laurie yet?” Frank asked as the other 4 guys, and Claudia shrugged their shoulders.
