Chapter. 1 *Damn parental blocking crap!*
* Ely And Nick Point Of veiw *

Ely and Nicholas had been friends for almost 10 years. They met when they were about 6 years old. They did everything together. When he was in the nurses office for eating too much paste you could guarantee she would be right up there with him. Or the time in 4th grade when she scraped her knee he was the one to comfort her. They were like salt and pepper, you couldn't find one with out the other.

"Ely, dear, time to come in and eat" her mother called.

"I'll be right there!"she called back.

"Aww man! I was whipping ya too!" Nicholas complained.

"Nicky man, you couldn't beat me if your life depended on it, Basket ball's my sport!"she teased.

"One day, I'll show you who's boss"he laughed.

"Night!"she called running up to her door.

"Night!"He replied and walked across the yard to his house. Nicholas opened his door and entered the empty house. "Ok, Nick what to do?"he thought as he dropped his ball and walked to the kitchen. "Yes pizza, score!!!"he exclaimed. He pulled the box out of the fridge and grabbed a Doctor Pepper, and walked over to the couch. He grabbed the remote and flipped threw the channels. "Hmmm....no parents...."he said slyly with a mouthful of pizza. He quickly pressed in the numbers "DAMN parental blocking crap!!!" He then decided to watch some Nickelodeon. "Salute your shorts!"he said silently.

Ely finished eating and walked up to her room.

"Oh Ely, before I forget, Anna called, she wants you to call her back."

"Ok, thanks mom"She replied and walked into her room. She picked up her phone and dialed the #.

"Hello?"

"Hey Anna, whatcha up to?",

"Nothing really just kicken it with the guys, you should come by."

"Ok, I'll be over in a sec, can I bring Nicky?"she asked.

"Yeah, Nicks a cutie, go ahead."

"Uhh, ok!"

"Talk to ya soon."

"C~Ya"

Ely ran down the hall and into her bathroom. She washed her face and put on her make up. "Mom, I'm gonna go to Anna's, I'll be back later!"

"Ok, be back before 10!"

"Don't worry! Bye!"she said and ran out the door. She quickly threw her hair up into a loose pony as she approached Nicky's door. "Knock, knock"

"Hey, come in...."he said opening the door for her.

"No, I just came by to ask you if you wanted to come with me to Anna's?"

"Anna? The hot one?"

"I don't know, do you want to come or not?"she asked a little fidgety.

"Chill, yeah I'll come, hold on."

"K"

Nick ran up to his room and threw on his black hooded sweatshirt and quickly put some gel threw his hair. He ran back down the stairs and out the door.

"Whoa, who are you trying to impress?"she asked a little shocked by his actions.

"No one, what are you talking about?"he asked as the two walked down the street.

"When did you start caring about the way you look?"

"I always have."

"Uh huh, whatever, It's because of Anna isn't it?"she asked with a hint of annoyance in her voice.

"Chill, what's your prob Ell?"

"Nothing, i just think your trying to hard."

"Your jealous aren't you?"

"No Nick! Why would I be jealous."

"Because your not the only girl in my life."

"Hahaha, yeah right!"she laughed as they walked up to Anna's house.

As on signal Anna flew open the door. "Hey chicky, hey Nicky!" she geeted, and gave them a hug.

"Hey girl!"

"Hey Anna,"Nick smiled.

Anna smiled back and led them into the living room where, Kyle, some other guy, and Jarred were at.

"Yo Nick where ya been dawg," Kyle greeted.

"Ehh, here and there, ya know how it is."

Ely laughed at Nick, it was funny when he was around Kyle and Jarred. He acted totally different from the way he was with her.

"What's so funny?" Kyle asked flashing her a small grin.

"Oh nothing, nothing at all," she smirked. Nick threw her an annoyed glance and continued to chat with Jarred.

Ely walked over to the new guy and sat down. "How's it going?" she laughed.

"Good, you?"

"Oh just peachy keene, so what might your name be?"

"El leave the poor guy alone," Jarred interrupted.

"Oh be quiet, your just jealous, I'll talk to ‘you' later!"she laughed, and forwarded her attention back to the new guy.

"My name is Brian, and yours?"

"Ely, well it's nice to meet you Brian. God I just love your accent, where are you from?"

"Lexington, Kentucky, I just moved here."

"Oh, why?"

"Well my cuz wanted me to come down and be in this harmony group."

"Oh? You can sing?"

"Yeah, pretty well actually."

"Sing something for us."

"No, I couldn't possibly," he replied as his cheeks turned a flush pink.

"Oh come on, if you ever plan on making it big, you'll have to learn to sing infront of people. Nick can sing too, hey Nick sing with him."

"Nahh that's ok."

"Come on Nick, you always sing for me at home"she pleaded. Nick's face became red and he glared at her.

"Ok, or not."

"That's ok, I need to be going soon anyway."Brian added, as he got up from the recliner.

"It was nice meeting you Brian," Ely called as Anna walked him to the door.

"So Bri, you gonna call me? Or did my friends scare you away."

"Haha, no I'll call ya, tonight." he said and gave her a kiss on the cheek and left. Anna returned to the room to find Jarred and Kyle sitting there imitating.

"Ohhh, I'm from kentucky, Ya'll wanna come over for some KFC?"Jarred laughed almost rolling around on the ground in hysterics.

"Yo dick wad, take the dick out of your ass and grow up."

"Bu..buttt......"

"Just shut the hell up! Damn you guy's are pathetic."

"Who invited him anyway?" Kyle retorted.

"I did, you better watch it Kyle, your walking a fine line with me!" she warned.

"...What I do?" He asked getting up and walking over to her.

"Just shut up" she said pushing him onto the couch.

"Yo, where'd Nick and El go?" Jarred asked.

"There in the kitchen getten it on!!" Kyle laughed.

"I heard that!!!!" Ely said as she walked back into the living room with Nick and a few drinks.

After an hour or so Nick and Ely left Anna's.

"What did ya think of Brian?" Nick asked curiously.

"He's a hottie!"she laughed as they approached their driveways.

"That's good to know, well night El, see ya tomorrow." he waved bye, as each of them walked up their separate drive ways and into their house.
