Chapter 26

	After awhile, everyone was getting cold, so they went into 
the lodge. This really anoying girl kept following Taylor around, 
asking him dumb questions. Kristin, Isaac, Kate, & Zac were playing 
pool in teams, Beth was waiting in line to get a pop. Taylor went up 
to Beth.
	"This girl is following me around and it's bugging me so much! 
Hey, will you get me a Dr. Pepper?" Taylor asked as the girl found 
him, again. He gave Beth 75 cents for a pop. 
	"Hey, there you are Taylor! I was looking all over for you!" 
said the girl. 
	"Gol darnit anyways!" Taylor whispered to Beth. 
	Beth started laughing. "Hey, are you two going out?" the girl 
asked them. 
	"Yeah," said Taylor, as Beth gave him a weird look. 
	He gave her a 'play along' look. 
	Beth only said "Yep," and nodded her head. 
	"Oh, ok," said the girls sounding disapointed. 
	Then she left and sat down at a table with her friends. After 
the girl sat down, Zac came over to Taylor & Beth. 
	Hearing what they said, he asked confussed, "Are you two going 
out?" 
	"No, we just have to act like it so that that girl over there 
stops hitting on your brother!" Beth exclaimed. "Darnit all the darnit 
heads!" Beth whispered. "She's looking over here!" Beth continued. 
	That girl kept following Taylor around, asking more dumb 
questions. 
	"Do you think he likes you following him around?" Beth asked 
getting really anoyed with her. 
	"I don't know," the girl said, then went to find her friends 
again. 
	"We have to act like we're talking so if she looks over here 
she won't get the wrong idea," said Beth. 
	"Consentraite...um, um, um, um," was Taylor's reply. "What 
don't I know about you? Ok, what's your favorite bands, song, and 
color?" Taylor asked trying to make conversation. 
	"Six Pence Non the Richer, Jars of Clay, Supertones, No Doubt, 
MXPX, and basically any bands excapt Marilyn Manson or the Spice Girls. 
Sorry Tay, but all the Spice Girls are bi, even Emma," said Beth. 
	"Ew, ok maybe I don't like her anymore," said Taylor. 
	"Um, favorite songs, 'Kiss Me' & 'Am I Easy To Ignore?'. Oh 
yeah! Colors, blue, red, purple, & orange," continued Beth. 
	"Who sings those songs?" asked Taylor. (A.N. That dumb girl 
was still watching them!) 
	"Six Pence," Beth answered. 
	"How do they go?" asked a curious Taylor. 
	"What do you mean, 'How do they go?'" asked a confused Beth. 
	"I mean, sing them," Taylor answered. 
	"Kiss me out of bearded barley, 
	Nightly outbeside the green, green grass,
	Swing, swing, swing the spinning step,
	You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress,
	Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight,
	Lead me out on the moonlit floor,
	Lift your open hand,
	Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
	Silver moons sparkling,
	So kiss me." Beth sang the first part, then continued talking, 
"And the other one goes like this," she said before she started 
singing again, "You and the moon are a beautiful sight to me,
	The stars in your eyes make it really hard to see you,
	A night in the sun is all I really want,
	You and me are the best of both for once,
	Night breaks,
	My heart could not ache anymore,
	Am I that easy to ignore?"
	"Dang, she's coming over here," said Taylor as the girl came 
back over to where Taylor and Beth were sitting. 
	"Hi!" she said. 
	"Leave!" Beth exclaimed. 
	"Are you hinting something?" asked the clueless girl.
	"Beth doesn't hint, she just comes right out and says it," 
replied Isaac as he, Kate, Zac, & Kristin walked over to them. 
	"Fine," said the girl as she got up and left. 
	"Mom said it's time to go," said Zac.
