Clint and Sarah were sitting on the same bench she and Bob had sat on the night before when they had their emotional conversation. Clint had been at the reception after the funeral but didnt see Sarah or Bob. Which made him a little suspicious, but he decided not to bring it up. It would only cause Sarah more stress then she already had, and he didn't want to do that to her.
Both of them now sat just stareing at the fountain. It was an angel holding a heart, and the water was flowing out through the angel's mouth into a little pool of cool crisp water. Sarah watched as the water fell into the pool and the sunlight made a streak across the water. She tried to make sense of everything that had happened that day, and kept asking herself if it had really happened. Could her Aunt----a vivacious, strong person----really be gone? Was it possible? Sarah felt the tears fill her eyes and she quickly shut them, not letting them spill out. She wanted her last night in Paso Robles to be happy and she wanted to be with Clint.
Sar? Clint quietly asked, so quiet that Sarah wasnt sure if he had really said it or not.
Yeah? Sarah whispered. She looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Its okay to cry if you want to, he reassured her. Sarah shook her head, and returned her gaze to the foutain.
Well it really is but if you dont want to then dont, Clint contradicted. There were a few minutes of silence. Sarah didnt know how to describe to Clint the pain she had inside of her. It was a kind of pain that ate away at your sole, and made you feel as if you couldnt go on. She felt she had to explain this to everyone.....except Bob. It was different with Bob, he understood and it almost as if he felt the pain too. She felt very close to Bob. I mean was it normal? Wasn't she supposed to be closer to Clint because she was his girlfriend? Wasn't that the way it was supposed to be? It was too weird for her to try and figure out. She sighed loudly and pressed her index fingers to her temples.
Im sorry I snapped at you, its just I am so frustrated, Clint apologized. Sarah looked at him in disbelief.
Your frustrated? YOUR frustrated?! Sarah angirly stated, she looked at him with confusion as to where his frustration came from. How in the world do you think I feel?? My Aunt just committed suicide!! Sarah began to cry.
Sarah, Im sorry. That was really mean of me to say, I know your under an incredible amount of stress and I totally understand. Im so sorry this happened to you, I wish I could change it, he informed her as he took her hands in his and kissed the tears off her face. Sarah loved the way his lips felt against her cheeks. She began to tentatively kiss him back.
Would you two kindly get a room? Scott screamed from his car. Clint and Sarah broke apart and looked to see where the impolite scream came from.
Scott would you get a life? Dont you have something better to do then spy on other people trying to have a makeout session? Clint shot back. Scott twisted his face in thought.
Umm.....NOPE!! Scott retorted. Clint shot him an angry look, promising revenge.
Anyway the reason I was coming over was to pick Bob and Dave up, Scott told the couple who had now began to walk closer to the car.
Where are you guys going? Sarah asked now interested. All adventures with Scott were fun and she didnt want to miss out.....especialy not tonight.
Burger King. The food at this hotel sucks, Scott said as he watched Bob and Dave close the hotel door and run towards the car.
Can we come? Sarah asked as she grabbed Clints hand and pulled him into the car with her.
Yeah sure! The more the merrier! Scott smiled.
Good, cause I was going to come anyway! Sarah laughed as she buckled her seat belt. Clint sat beside her and held her hand. Sarah smiled at him and began to lean in to kiss him.
Oh, I DO NOT THINK SO!! Dave yelled as he pushed their heads apart. You are NOT having a full blown makeout session while Im in the car! Nope, aint gonna happen!! Dave informed the whole car as well as an old couple that just happened to be walking by their car. The old couple looked into the car with a look of shock.
Dont mind my brother....he has too much stress in his life, Scott laughed stiffly. They watched as the old couple walked away, then Scott smacked Dave on the back of his head.
OUCH!! What the hell was that for?? Dave questioned. Scott rolled his eyes and started the engine. Sarah and Clint had began kissing again.
Hey whatd I tell you two? Dave said knocking on Clint's head with his fist. Clint didnt respond but instead grabbed the back of Sarahs head and let out a slight moan, just to make Dave mad. Dave in return yelled some profane sentence. Scott started laughing at the whole scene that was playing in their car. Bob just sat by the window stareing at the passing houses, people, and trees. He was deep in thought. He had a problem he was trying to work out in his mind but the answer wasnt working out the way he wanted it to. He sighed loudly but not one person noticed.
About 15 minutes later they were in the parking lot of Burger King. Dave was still yelling at Sarah and Clint, even though they had stopped kissing 10 minutes ago. And Bob was still stareing out the window.
Dave shut up!! Scott screamed at his brother who would not shut his mouth. Dave stopped in mid sentence.
Dave shut up!! Scott screamed at his brother who would not shut his mouth. Dave stopped in mid sentence.
Okay now that Dave has zipped it... Scott eyed his brother. We can go inside and get some real food. The whole gang climbed out of the car and laughing and joking walked to the entrance of the resturant. Then Scott stopped. Everyone stopped talking and looked at him.
Come on Scott, Dave said as he motioned for his brother to follow him. Scott shook his head.
Lets walk through the drive thru! Scott perposed. Clint, Sarah, Bob, and Dave looked at him like he was a mad man standing in the rain.
Why on earth would we do that? Sarah asked Scott, who, she thought, had really gone over the deep end this time.
Because its fun! We have one life to live and Im going to make it worth wild! Scott replied. Sarah laughed.
Okay for laughing at me your coming with me, Scott informed Sarah as he picked her up and carried her caveman style to the drive thru.
Hey! Where are you going with my girlfriend? Clint yelled as he chased Scott and Sarah, who was squealing and kicking. Dave tore into a fit of laughter and followed the others. Thats when Bob remembered that they had a video camera in the back of Scotts car. They always took their video camera everywhere they went just incase something classic happened (such as this!). Bob ran to Scotts car and pulled open the back door. He grabbed the camera and began to chase the others. Bob pressed the record button and yelled at Dave who was jogging infront of him.
Scott put her down! Dave echoed through the parking lot.
DAVE GET OUT OF THE WAY! Bob yelled at his brother as he approached him.
What?! Dave asked his brother.
DAVE GET OUT OF THE WAY! Bob hollered as he grew closer to Dave. Dave looked back and saw what Bob was trying to do and smiled. He stopped and Bob caught up with him. They both stood and taped their brothers and best friend. Scott was just now entering the drive thru with Sarah hung over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. She was screaming and hitting him with her fists and Clint was chaseing them laughing.
Are you getting this? Dave laughed.
Im gettin it! Im gettin it! Bob yelled in excitment.
Scott, put me down! Im serious this is so not funny! Sarah squeaked.
Oh yes it is! Clint chimed in.
Shut up Clint! No one asked for your opinion! Sarah snapped. Clint shut his mouth.
Scott please put me down! Sarah begged Scott, who had tuned her out and was looking at the huge board that displayed the selections of food.
Sarah what would you like to eat? Scott asked, totally ignoring the fact that she was still struggling to free herself of his grasp.
A number five with a coke, Sarah replied calmly. She had an evil idea. She placed her hands on the top of Scotts boxers that were showing slightly because his pants were a size too big. She grasped them and pulled them towards her with all her strength.
SHIT! Scott screamed in pain. He put Sarah down and the pain stopped instantly. Scott picked his wedgie and looked at Sarah who was smiling satasfied.
Language! Clint reminded his brother. Sheila was very picky about keeping their mouths clean, and Scott had a hard time grasping this concept.
Okay you get nothing for dinner, because Im paying!! Now who gets the last laugh? Scott laughed and pointed his finger at Sarah. Sarah just stuck her tounge out at him. Clint walked up behind Sarah and pulled her up as Bob and Dave caught up with the group.
I got EVERYTHING! Even Scott picking his wedgie! Bob panted as he held up the camera.
You what?! Sarah was very angry now. Not only was that event not funny it was embarrassing! And Bob had it all on tape, and she KNEW he would use it as blackmale.
GUYS! Well settle this later. Right now we need to order our food, Scott advised.
Two number fives with cokes and three number fours with two orange sodas and one dr. pepper, Dave rattled off. He knew the order by heart, after all they always went to Burger King!
Thats sad Dave. Now can officially say that you have no life, Bob joked. Dave frowned at him and flipped him off.
Okay everyone stand where you would sit in my car, Scott instructed. Dave stood next to Scott and Bob, Sarah, and Clint stood in a row behind Scott. They slowly walked (with their knees bent to make it look like they were sitting) to the intercom.
Hi, welcome to Burger King. May I take your order? a tired voice asked. Everyone turned to Dave for the order and he sighed.
Two number fives with cokes and three number fours with two orange sodas and one dr. pepper, Dave ordered.
Will that be all?
Yuppers! Bob answered smiling.
Okay thatll be $14.95 at the next window. Have a nice day, the girl talked into her small microphone that was hooked to her ear.
Thank you! Sarah called as they began to walk again.
Paige rubbed her temples with her fingers, trying to rid herself of the pounding headache that had taken over her entire skull. She had been working since three oclock and was tired of rude adults, impatient children, and snobby, stuck up teenagers. She sighed and looked out the window. Thats when she spotted them. Five teenagers walking through a drive thru.
Oh man, this is not my night, Paige moaned.
Aw dude! I love that song! Clint stated referring to the song Ghetto Superstar, playing from some car in the distant parking lot. He began to shake his head and show off his dance skills......which were surprisingly good.
Scott turn it up! he sang as he began fake playing his base.
Clint I cant turn it up, was Scotts reply.
Why? Clint asked as he continued to play his pretend base.
DUH......WERE NOT IN A CAR STUPID! Scott reminded his dense brother.
Oh yeah. Clints face fell as he realized the cold reality of not being able to play his song loud. Well that SUCKS! he yelled into the parking lot.
And you say I have no life, Dave laughed into Bobs ear.
Shut up Dave! You know you have no life, Clint shot back.
At least Im not a loser, Dave mumbled.
I AM NOT A LOSER! Clint denied.
Would both of you shut up! Bob yelled. Your giving me a headache.
They walked up to the window and Scott looked at the girl behind the register. She had strawberry blonde hair, dim blue eyes, and a very unhappy face. Paige looked back at the strange, idiot that had just walked through the drive thru. He had brown hair with blotches of blonde in the front to his shoulders, blue eyes, and a nice build. She thought he looked familiar but she couldn't put her finger on it.
What do you think your doing? Paige asked and she moved the microphone from her mouth.
Getting our food, Scott proudly stated. Paige rolled her eyes.
Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to go inside and reorder your food, Paige sighed.
Why? That would be stupid! Scott laughed.
Look, this is a DRIVE THRU not a walk thru. CARS drive through here, you know big vehicles, four wheels.....vroom vroom? Paige informed him as she pretended to drive a car. Scott laughed and shook his head.
Yes, I know what cars are.
Good. Now, Im going to have to ask you to leave and go inside to order your food, like normal civilized people, Paige practically yelled. She was growing tired of Scott very very fast.
Not happening, Clint replied joining in on the fun. It was too much for him to resist. Paige glared at the boy standing next to the one she was previously speaking with.
Fine, she sighed. Ill get you your food. With that she turned and walked further into the fast food restaurant. Five minutes later she emerged again with their food.
Here ya go, enjoy, Paige said flatly as she handed them their food.
Thanks, and sorry we ruined your day, Scott apologized and flashed her his sexy smile that made every girls heart melt. Paige found herself blown away by his smile. He's cute, she thought.
Just as Scott, Clint, Sarah, Bob and Dave were about to leave the window there was a loud honk and screeching of tires. The five teens watched in horror as a huge blue tour bus came their way.
