-- CHAPTER FOUR --


**********(Tash's point of view)**********

~* Just a bad case of oppisite sex, have to look to the stars. All we need is a little respect, coz men are from Venus and girls are from Mars! *~ Geri Halliwell

Zac and I had landed at a club and we had been dancing for two hours straight. I had never had so much fun despite I was sweating and using a lot of my precious energy. Zac and I did some mild dirty dancing together, laughing the whole time. Him and I were having the times of our lives at that moment.

"HEY LINDSAY!" Zac yelled over the defaning music.

"YEAH?" I yelled back.

"I'M HUNGRY, LET'S GET FOOD!" He suggested.

"ALRIGHTY THEN," I returned.

We stopped dancing and walked out of the dance floor, outside and into my car. We drove to Wendy's and stood in line to order.

"What do you wanna get?" he asked, pulling out his wallet.

"Oh, I'm not hungry," I answered.

He cocked an eyebrow along with a concerned face. "You sure?" he inquired.

"Yep," I returned.

"Alright," he said, turning around.

It was our turn and Zac ordered a Jr. Bacon Cheesburger and a Coke. He got the food and we found a table for two and sat down. We had a conversation while Zac ate. That burger was tempting, my stomach begged for food while I watched him eat in bliss. I told myself no even though I was deperate to eat.

Zac scooted his chair back and stood up.

"Where ya going?" I asked, a hint of begging him no to leave me in my voice. I mentally kicked myself.

"I'm gonna go get some fries, be right back," he answered, smiling slightly.

I smiled a little and he went in line. I stared at him from across the room, concentrating on how his blond hair shined in the light. His chocolate eyes were fixed on readin the food selection posted on the wall, giving him a concentrated look. His lips looked like they were drying out and he quickly licked them to bring the moisture back. I nearly lost control as I fantasised how those newly wet lips would feel on mine. I snapped out of the trance when he walked forward to order. Which ment I focused on how soft his skin looked.

I woke up to reality when I saw Zac walking to where I was sitting. We smiled at each other as he sat down. He took a couple of fries, dipped them in ketchup, then put them in his mouth. I stared at the fries, my stomach growling. God, they looked good. Stemy hot and yummy, especially with ketchup. I wished I could eat them.

"Want some?" Zac asked suddenly.

I looked up at him looking at my face. His facial expression were waiting for an answer.

"What?" I asked, even though I knew what he was asking.

"Do you want some of my fries?" he asked again.

My stomach growling afected my weak willpower and I answered, "Sure, thanks,"

"No problem," he returned, smiling.

I scooted the box towards me and ate a ketchip covered fry. God, it felt good to have food again. (at lunch I had just had soup which tasted bad anyhow. I don't consider soup food) I was just going to eat one. Okay, maybe two. I ate another one, then ended up eating the whole box. After I finished, I realized I had eaten all of Zac's fries.

"Oh my gosh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to eat them all, I swear!" I apologized.

"No, Lindsay, it's okay! I actually bought that box for you so you'd eat something, chill out." Zac reasured.

I cocked my eyebrow at him. "You didn't have to do that you know," I mentioned.

"Well, I wanted to. Besides, you needed to eat something," her returned.

"But I wasn't hungry," I argued.

"You sure look like you were hungry to me," he noted

"Well, that's becuase, well, awe shut up!"

He laughed and I crossed my arms.

"It's not funny," I snapped.

"Yeah it is," he laughed.

"No it's not!" I argued.

"Whatever. Hey, wanna go to the arcade?"

"Sure, that's cool,"

"Okieday, let's go," Zac and I got up and threw the trash away.

"Don't talk like Jar Jar coz I'm only allowed to talk like that coz I'm Jar Jar," I mentioned.

"No, you're not Jar Jar. You're Jaba the Hut," he joked evily.

I kicked him and snapped, "Shut up!"

He laughed as we walked out the door.

"It's NOT funny Zachary," I snapped.

"Then why am I laughing?" he asked, smiling.

"Because you're an idiot." I insulted.

"If I'm an idiot, then why do I have good comebacks?" he asked smartly.

"You don't, stupid." I mentioned.

"Then why'd you tell me to shut up when I said you were Jaba? Huh? Ms.

'Oh, you don't have good comebaks!'?" he mocked.

"Shut up!" I yelled, kicking him in the butt.

He laughed while I unlocked the door and sat in, putting the keys in. Zac was too busy laughing to pay attention. I backed out, him not noticing.

"See if I drive you anywhere," I snapped, and drove off.

"Hey!" he yelled chasing after the car. I started laughing, still driving.

Zac chased me and my car on the sidewalk as I drove down the street. "C'mon Lindsay! Lemme in! Please!" he begged as I drove.

"Well...NO!" I snapped then drove faster, leaving him in the dust. I laughed as I looked in the rear view mirrior, seeing Zac standing there, helpless. But, of course, I couldn't leave him there. I pulled over in a nearby parking lot. Zac ran over to the car and hopped in. Before he could say anything, I rubbed in, "Who has the good comenbacks now?"

He looked over at me with a scowl and I laughed. Zac stuck his tounge out me.

"It's about time," he mentioned refering to letting him in.

"You're lucky I even let you in so stuff it before I kick you out and you have to walk back to the dorm," I snapped and started the car.

"You couldn't let me walk, you like me too much to let that happen," Zac mentioned.

"Don't push your luck mister. And, NO, I DON'T like you too much to let that happen," I snapped. (Shit, was I that obvious????)

"Yeah, whatever Lindsay. Just drive," Zac said.

I was quiet and headed in the direction of the arcade. We sat in silence for five minutes straight.

"By the way, I'm sorry for acting like a jerk." Zac apologized quietly.

"It's alright. It was no big deal anyway." I forgave.

"You're not a perfect either you know," Zac noted.

"I know." I said.

A few seconds of silence passed, Zac waiting for something. "So you're not gonna apologize?" he asked.

"Nope." I answered.

He smiled and said, "Somehow, I knew you were gonna say that,"

"You catch on really quick," I replied.

We both laughed and started talking again. We reached the arcade and blew off our quarters for an hour. After that, we got back to my car. I let Zac drive coz he was nice and won me a teddy bear. That and I wasn't admitting that I feeling to tired to drive. Zac was the oppisite, he was completely fired up. And I learned he wasn't too good at driving when he was hyper, coz I think we came pretty damn close to getting a ticket. We finally reached the campus and he parked the car.

The two of us headed to his dorm room. Zac pulled out his keys from his pocket and opened the door. Tasha and Taylor were there sitting on Taylor's bed, talking.

"Sup," Zac greeted as we walked in.

The two turned their heads at us and smiled. I couldn't help but notice Tasha looking at me with a look of fear. I cocked my eyebrow at her. "Am I that ugly that I'm scaring you?" I asked.

"No Lindsay, you're NOT ugly. Why would I be scared of you? No wait, don't answer that, I already know the answer," she returned.

"Ha ha ha, funny. Why were you looking at me weird?" I inquired.

"You look stoned or something," she answered.

"Oh. Well, you would too if you went through HIS driving!" I accused pointing at Zac.

"What? I didn't do anything! I'm innocent, I swear!" Zac claimed dramtically.

"Yeah, we believe that Zac, I'm sure." Taylor insulted.

"I told you to keep your hands off of Lindsay when you were alone!" Tasha joked.

"That's sick Tasha. Besides, I'm not the one who's with Taylor on his bed," I defended.

"No, you were just in the backseat with Zac, that's all," she argued.

"Yeah whatever pervert." I insulted.

Zac turned on the Tv to HBO and The Fifth Element was starting. Zac sat down on his bed that was nest to Taylor's. I wasn't a pervert like Tasha and I sat down on the circle coushin chair, whatever the hell she said it was called. I curled up in it, getting comfortable. I yawned and cuddled my teddy bear, feeling sleepy. It wasn't long before I closed my eyes and was fast asleep.

**********(T.P.O.V)**********

~*"Show me why I need to be here, tell me how to get away. I don't like this new sense of fear. Seeing you just ruined my day."*~Tasha

I watched Lindsay clutch her teddy bear as she fell asleep on the PAPISAN (:P) and then looked over to see Zac watching her do something as simple as breathe.

"Uh Zac?" I cleared my throat.

"Hmm?" He looked up at me. I think he might have been just a TAD bit irritated that I had disturbed him from watching Lindsay. Okay, maybe a LOT irritated.

"What did you two do today?" I crossed my fingers in hopes that he would say that they ate at some point or another.

"Yes Tasha. We ate. And Yes. Lindsay ate." He narrowed his eyes at me.

"Sorry!" If my voice had any more sarcasm in it, it could have been sincere.

"You scare me when you do that!" I announced, meaning that he had understood my silent implying.

"Well, when you hang out with JarJar here," He gestured towards Lindsay, "you have to be able to catch things like that or you will be left in her dust."

I had to laugh. Then I turned to Taylor, letting Zac resume watching his "sleeping beauty".

"Tay, is it okay if Lindsay just stays over here? I need to get back to my room. I have a class tomorrow." I stood up to go, knowing that he would say yes.

"Sure. I have a class anyway. I will probably NEVER get any sleep with these two though." He announced.

Zac snorted loudly. "Taylor, if you REALLY want to go sleep over there, be my guest." Zac laughed obnoxiously.

I could have strangled that fool. But Lindsay's evil ways scared me away from doing that. If I did, I could wake up tomorrow with some "creative writing" on my face. Goatees were not my style. Taylor was blushing like crazy. I pondered that for a minute.

"Well, you can stay over in Linz and my room if ya want. I'm sure she won't mind. I mean, she's got her little greek God over here. She won't care.And Zac will never know the difference." I shot Zac a glare, DARING him to say something.

He didn't though. I must have scared him. I smiled to myself and waited for Taylor to answer. I turned to look at him but he was already standing at the door, tapping his foot impatiently.

"Taylor, you never get this excited to sleep when Tasha isn't here." Zac was DETERMINED to be a butt.

I could have shot Zac and Lindsay both. Zac for being an asswipe and Lindsay for being just like him. I contemplated beating the living shit out of Zac but decided against it. If Hanson was gonna make a come back, they had to have a drummer. There was Mackie though......

I decided to go ahead and kill Zac. Unfortunately, Lindasy decided to roll off the papisan....and right into Zac's lap. The look on his face left me laughing too hard to kill him. Something of surprise and overjoyment would be the expression. I just turned and walked out of the door and towards my room with Taylor following.

As soon as I passed through my door after unlocking it, a wave of exhaust washed over me and I stumbled to my bed.

I threw myself on it and with a short, "G'night Tay." I fell asleep.

My shoes were still on and I was on top of the blanket but I was too tired to even care.

Fortunately for me, Lindsay would probably sleep in longer than me and never even know that Taylor had stayed in our room. Dreams soon took over and I spent the night envisioning flying over clouds.

Odd eh?

**********(L.P.O.V.)**********

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" I screamed as I shot up from my lying position. I breathed heavily and wiped away the sweat from my brow. I had just had the WORST nightmare in my whole lifetime.

I had watched my sister die, then went into a hospital room to find my Mother being murfered by cancer cells. Then I was in a bathroom and I threw up my heart and died. Yes, I had just spent three hours in sleeping hell.

I decided to get a drink of water. I pulled my covers off of me and walked to where the bathroom was. It was hard to see in the dark.

"Ouch!" I mumbled after I walked into a wall that I thought was the bathroom.

"Oh, here it is. I knew that," I whispered when I saw the bathroom door.

I opened it and turned on the night light. I was suprised to find the seat up. My eyes became the size of golfballs. OH MY GOD! WAS TASHA EVEN A GIRL?! Then it hit me. This wasn't my dorm room. Dammit, Tahsa left me in here! That pervert, she must have thought it was funny to leave me alone in a dark room with Zac, the pervert! I turned off the nightlight, opened the door, stormed out of the boys' dorm room, walked fastly to mine, went inside, and layed down in my own bed.

Hmm, this is funny. The bed was warmer than usual. It also didn't feel like a bed. I turned over and saw that I was lying on top of Taylor. I let out a blood curdling scream in shock.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Taylor yelled as he shot up.

"YOU PERVERT! GET THE HELL OUT OF MY BED!" I screamed, pushing him off and onto the floor.

"But-" he started.

"GET OUT! GET OUT! GET OUT! GET OUT!" I schrieked, picking up by the back of his shirt and shoving him out the door. I slammed it behind me and stormed back over to my bed. Tahsa had waken up.

"Lindsay-" she started.

"YOU'RE SICK TAHSA! SICK, SICK, SICK!" I accused loudly.

"Lindsay, I came here coz I need to sleep in my own bed, Taylor didn''t want to sleep in the same room as you-"

"Oh, so you just brought him over here so he could sleep with you?! You're a nasty little freak you know that?! And you left me there like it was SO hilarious that Zac and I were alone! You shoulda brought me here and we wouldn't be having this argument!"

"Lindsay-"

"Yes, I DO raise hell when I'm pissed off, you don't have to tell me. And no, I had PMS three weeks ago. Don't talk to me, I'm going to sleep now. Sweet dreams pervert!"

I layed in bed, pulling my covers over me. I put me pillow over my head, signaling that I wanted to be left alone. I can't believe she did that. And then I began to wonder if she had figured me out. She probably had, and then she blabbed it over to dumb and dumber. Gee, I can really trust her with a secret. I didn't care though, no one can stop me from what I was doing. It's my body, not theirs. If they can't respect that, then I don't consider them my friends. And I could easily get a dorm room for myself.

I closed my eyes and pushed my angered thoughts to the back of my mind. I'd get my revenge on Tasha soon. If she can't respect my secrets, then I won't respect hers. I feel alseep planning my revenge.
