Chapter 17


Isaac stared in awe at this beautiful girl. He just couldn't get enough of her. She was funny, she was nice, she was everything he had hoped. He also loved how she just spoke her mind. I could fall in love with this girl.

"Um, Isaac. Just a little advice. It's not very attractive when you are VISIBLY drooling over a girl." Taylor whispered.

Isaac gave him a look. "Shut up, Taylor. Your just jealous."

"Jealous? Of you?" He started laughing hysterically.

"You just wish you were as fine and handsome as me."

"Yeah. Every night I pray that I can look like a monkey."

"Well at least I don't get mistaken for a girl all the time. When was the last time a guy hit on you? Last night?"

"When was the last time ANYONE hit on you?" Taylor started laughing even harder.

Isaac's face grew dark red. "Taylor you are really starting to piss me off. If you don't quit it right now I will....I'll....."

"You'll what?"

"I'll show Kate" He paused dramatically.".......the tape."

"What tape?" Taylor asked.

"Don't play dumb. You know what I'm talking about. The Tape "

Taylor stopped laughing and gasped. "You wouldn't dare."

"Oh yes I would."

"I'll hide it."

"Oh don't worry I'll find it. I'm sure pretty little Kate would just LOVE to see the tape."

Taylor glared at Isaac. Isaac glared back. They stared hard at each other.

"Um, guys, I'm sure you're having fun, but I found my luggage, and as nice as this airport is, I'd really like to see the rest of Tulsa." Jade remarked interrupting them.

Isaac turned away and smiled at Jade. "Let me help you, those look heavy." He picked up her two suitcases. Taylor stuck his tounge out at him as he passed. Isaac gave him a look back. Together the four teens began wallking out of Tulsa International.

Taylor fingered the small picture in his hands. "The Tape". He wished he could destroy it but it had Grandma's and Gramp's 50th anniversary, along with Avery's and Mackie's baptisms on it and his mother would not alow it. His own mother! Surely she should know the horror and humiliation this tape could bring forth to one poor innocent boy if it was not destroyed immediately. But did Mother Hanson care? Nooooo. To Taylor it was an act of betrayal.

"Isaac, you won't EVER find "the tape". I'll see to it!" With that Taylor took off. Off to the one place Isaac would never search.

Zac and Amber trekked through the woods. "Zac, where are we going?" She asked. She stopped walking and bent over, hands on knees. "It's so hot!"

"There's all these old trails and forts back here. They're really cool. I wanna show you." Zac stopped and wiped sweat from his forhead.

"But why do we have our bathing suits on?"

"Because, you'll see. Now come on! Chop, chop."

Amber stood up. "Chop, chop?"

Zac sighed. 'Ya know, whatever."

Amber started running ahead. "Come on Zac! I'll race you! "Chop Chop!"" She started laughing as she took off down the trail.

"Hey!" Zac took off after her, running as fast as he could, grinning as he passed her. "I won!" He yelled.

"No fair!"

Zac stopped. "No fair? I won, fair and square."

Amber stopped beside him. "Nope. Not true."

"Not true? How?"

"Cuz I said so!" Amber grabbed him around the neck and tackled him to the ground. He rolled over and pinned hr under him.

Panting he said, "Ya know, Amber, you really shouldn't pick fights you can't win."

"Ya know, Zac, you really shouldn't look so cute when you're hot or I might just kiss you." She leaned up and kissed him on the lips. Then pulled away and smiled. Zac blushed.

"Come on, let's get going." He stood up and pulled Amber up beside him. They started walking down the path in silence.

Zac broke the silence a little later. "How come you always kiss me?"

"Duh Zac, cuz I like you."

"Oh."

"What? You don't want me to kiss you?" Amber teased.

"I didn't say that."

"I think you did. Okay fine no more kisses for Zac. I'll just have to give some to Taylor from now on."

"No. Your kisses are for me!" Zac grabbed Amber's arm and pulled her to him, pressing his lips to hers.

Amber looked up at him. "Does this mean you like me too?"

Zac nodded. "Yeah."

"Good." They smiled at each other and began walking through the woods again. Each thinking their own thoughts.
