Shannon grumbled and said a few inaudible curse words and rolled over. Pulling her blankets over her head. "This is sooo wrong, Shana." She said as she stayed under her blankets. "You don't do this to people. It's too cruel." She said through a yawn.
Shana smiled and continued to shake Shannon's shoulder as she looked around for what to wear. "C'mon. We need to do our video today. We're supposed to finish it either today or tomorrow." She said still looking around.
Finally she gave up on shaking Shannon's shoulder. She had spotted their ice bucket on the stand in between their beds. It was full of ice cold water now. She smiled and picked it up. "Please forgive me." She said as she stared at Shannon who was still under her blankets.
"Forgive you for what?" Shannon asked as she pulled her blankets back.
Taking that as her chance, Shana dumped the freezing water on Shannon.
Shannon gasped loudly and then sputtered a little. She got up slowly and Shana backed away quickly. "I'm not going to retaliate just yet." She said calmly. "But I will." She said as she walked into their bathroom.
Shana laughed as she looked around for clothed to wear that day in the video. 'Hmm,' She thought to herself. 'What to wear? What to wear?' She asked herself as she started digging through her clothes.
Giving up on her own wardrobe. She decided to raid Shannon's. She took Shannon's black V-neck shirt and wore it with her green corduroy pants.
When Shannon walked out and saw Shana's shirt she smiled. "I was meaning to give that back. Someday." She added laughing.
Shana was confused for a moment. "You mean this is my shirt?" She questioned looking down at it.
Shannon nodded. "Yup. I borrowed it a few weeks ago. Actually about over eight weeks ago to be exact."
"Oh gee, thanks." Shana said laughing.
"No problem. Glad I could help." Shannon said as she went over to her wardrobe and chose her outfit for the day. She grabbed the articles of clothing and ran back into the bathroom.
A moment later she stepped out wearing bright orange loose leather pants, with a light jungle green T-shirt over a white long sleeved shirt. She smiled at Shana. "I love this outfit!!" She said excitedly.
Shana laughed. "C'mon freak. We need to hurry up, eat breakfast, and leave."
Shannon shook her head. "Not really all that hungry." She said slowly as she eyed the food that sat on their small table.
Shrugging, Shana replied, "Okay, but if you pass out..." She warned.
"Fine." Shannon said as she grabbed the bagel. Quickly she popped it into the toaster and waited for it to pop back up.
When it did she spread butter on it and started to eat as she walked towards the door. "You coming?" She called over her shoulder. With her mouth full.
Shana grabbed the keys to their room. "I'm right behind ya!" She yelled as they stepped out into the hallway.
"Skyye." Shannon started. "I'm right here. Not on Mars." She explained quietly as Shana locked their door.
Laughing, Shana commented. "Really? I could've sworn you were on Albertane."
Shannon laughed too. "No, that's where your tiny little mind wanders when you think about Taylor. Which is a lot." She added slyly.
Shana slapped her lightly in the arm as they started walking down the stairs. "I don't think about him all the time."
"I didn't say all the time." Shannon corrected her friend. "I just said a lot."
"I don't think about him a lot either." Shana said indignantly.
Shannon nodded her head smiling knowingly. "Yeah. Uh, huh. Sure. I believe you."
Shana pushed Shannon through the doors. They stumbled out in front of the checking counter. The lady behind it smiled at them and they smiled back sheepishly. They pretty much made a small scene and they laughed about it. Attention was one thing that neither f them could live without.
"Zac! Hurry up!" Isaac and Taylor shouted from the living room in their rented house.
"I'm coming! I'm coming!" Zac shouted as he slowly walked down the stairs. "Gosh. Calm down. Relax a little. Breathe." He instructed his older brother's.
Taylor cracked a smile and Isaac fumed a few seconds before he too smiled at Zac. "C'mon. We have to go." Isaac said more calmly as he walked out the front door.
"What took you so long?" Taylor asked Zac as he slid into the passenger's seat.
Zac shrugged. "Mom and Dad were having a slight problem braiding my hair." He said nonchalantly.
"What was wrong with your hair that made them have a slight problem?" Isaac asked as he backed down their driveway.
Smiling, Zac replied, "Well, I think it was all the tangles. But I'm not quite sure."
Taylor and Isaac chuckled and Zac just kept on smiling.
"So what are we doing today?" Zac asked as he leaned towards the front.
Isaac turned his head for a second to look at him and then turned back to the road. "Whatever. I guess. I'm driving, you guys get to choose."
Zac smiled at Taylor. "Anything?" Taylor questioned.
Isaac nodded. "As long as it's not illegal and that I can't go to jail for, yes anything."
"Okay. Then we wanna see Skyye and Izzy." Zac said smiling brightly.
Taylor nodded his head in agreement.
"Their names are Shana and Shannon. Remember? They lied to us?" Isaac said as his grip on the steering wheel tightened.
"Ike, Shannon didn't mean to lie to you. But she had to protect herself and Shana. Don't you understand that?" Taylor asked as he looked at Isaac.
Isaac cast him a sideways glance. "Don't you get it?" He asked. "They lied once, what makes you think they won't lie again?"
Taylor shrugged his shoulders. "I just don't think that they are like that."
"Maybe we don't know what they are like." Isaac said as he turned a corner.
"Then let's get to know them." Zac said speaking up.
Isaac sighed and turned another corner. "Fine." He said as he stopped and turned the engine off. "We're here. Let's get to know them." He said in fake happiness.
Zac rolled his eyes and him and his brother's all got out of the car. They watched quietly as Shana and Shannon listened to a few directions and then followed them when they were told to.
"They're really good." Zac whispered as Shana and Shannon started singing.
"Very good." Taylor commented. He looked at Isaac when Zac looked at him.
Isaac kept his gaze on Shannon and Shana. Then he broke his trance and shrugged his shoulders. "They're okay I guess."
Taylor and Zac looked at each other and rolled their eyes. "Whatever you say, Ike." They said in unison.
Shannon nodded her head at what Tamra was saying signifying that she understood what she was saying.
When they were given the sign Shana and her started to sing again. They started to play in front of the couples that were fighting yesterday. They were clapping their hands and nodding their heads like they were agreeing to what Shana and her was singing.
It took all of Shannon's strength not to roll her eyes. Shana seemed to be having as much trouble concentrating on what she was doing as Shannon was.
After a small break was given someone told them to look up and see if they saw anything out of the ordinary.
Shannon gave them a weird look but she and Shana looked up anyway. Then they saw them. At first you couldn't tell it was them, because they were near the lights. But the lights moved for a moment and Shannon got a good look at them.
She sighed as she turned to Shana. "Ten bucks says that Isaac is still hung up on me lying." She wagered with Shana.
Shana shook her head. "I'm dumb, not stupid. Even I know not to take that bet."
Shannon shrugged her shoulders. "He'd be cool to hang out with again if he wasn't so hung up on me lying to him. I at least told the truth later on." She pointed out.
Shana placed her hand on Shannon's shoulder. "Breathe." She instructed laughing. "Give it time. I'm sure he'll get over it."
"But we don't have a lot of time." Shannon whispered.
They both looked back up at the lights.
