*************

         Right as Max was about to pounce, my phone started to ring. "Oh, would you look at that," I drawled. "Someone's calling me. Excuse me." I smirked and took my phone out. Zoey was calling me. "Whazzup girl?" I answered. "Where have you been!?" she screamed. I winced. "Um,somewhere?" I said. "I was so worried about you!" she said. "Clarisse is here with me practically having a nervous breakdown!" I sighed. "How about-" I started but a shrill screaming cut me off. 

      "Jessa Evergreen!" Clarisse screamed. "Where are you!?" I grimaced. "I'm with Max," I said. I heard a sigh. "You have got to get over here and give us the dirty details!" she said. "Clari?" I said. "Where are you?" I heard a muffled 'hey!' and Zoey was back on the phone. "Come to my house!" she called. "Without Max!" Then she hung up. 

    I looked over at Max with a smug smile. Right then and there, I decided I would take Nikole with me. She would have to take us, because I don't have a car. "Bye, Max," I said, wiggling my fingers in his face. "See ya later!" I pecked his cheek, leaving him standing there, dumbfounded. Then a second later he was running after me, grabbing my shoulder, and whipping me around. "Where do you think you're going?" he asked. I shrugged. "Zoey's," I said. "Nikole's coming with me. Not you." 

   He looked a little hurt and I patted his arm. "Girl's only, sweetie," I cooed. He slapped my hand away. "What's gotten into you?" he asked. I shrugged. "Nikole!" I bellowed really loud. Max winced and I heard a distant thump. I walked to the living room and saw Nikole. Her hair was a mess and her shirt was on backwards. I had the feeling she wasn't wearing a bra. "Reporting for duty, Jes," she said crazily, putting her hand up in a mock salute. I rolled my eyes.

    She had a stupid grin on her face as Patch came up behind her and hugged her from the waist. He kissed the side of her neck and she giggled. "Nick!" I said. I grabbed her hand. "Patch, Max. Do some guy bonding or something. Me and Nick are going to meet some of my friends!" I pulled her to her room with my mouth poen in a stupid smile. Once we were in her room, I grabbed her hands and skipped around, singing, "There's a hundred and four days of summer vacation, but school comes along just to end it! So the annual problem for our generation is finding a good way to spend it..."

    Nikole joined in with me then, and we were singing at the top of our lungs, "Like maybe! Building a rocket, or fighting a mummy, or climbing up the eiffel tower! Discovering something that doesn't exist, or giving a monkey a shower!" We sped up a little at this part: "Finding a dodo bird, painting a continent, or driving our sister insane!" Then someone from the door screamed, "Phineas!" like Candace would. 

    It was Tristan. He joined in. "As you can see there's a whole lot of stuff to do before school starts this fall!" We started to shake our heads and jump up and down. I was rocking out on an air giutar.  "So stick with us 'cause Phineas and Ferb are gonna do it all! So stick with us 'cause Phineas and Ferb are gonna do it all!" Then we waited a beat, staring at each other with wide eyes and huge grins. Then I screamed, "Mom! Phineas and Ferb are making a title sequence!" Nikole did the last guitar riff and we collapsed on the floor.

   "What was that all about?" Tristan asked, standing up. Nikole and I started giggling. "I don't know." she said. "Up, up, up!" I said. "Get dressed! You're going somewhere today!" Nikole looked confused, but didn't question it. "I love Phineas and Ferb," I sighed. "And, cut!" I heard from the doorway. My head snapped to it and Rayne stood there, looking smug.

   "Rayne!" I shouted. "What are you doing with a camera!?" He just smiled innocently at me. "I don't know. Maybe a video of the most wanted mate, the Alpha's daughter, and the Alpha's third hand man on Youtube will get a lot of hits. Especially because it's Phineas and Ferb.." he mused. I tried grabbing at the camera. "Give it here!" I screeched. Nikole, fully dressed, came up behind me and asked, "What's the matter, Jes?" i huffed and said, "He has a video of us!"

    Nikole screamed, a sort of battle scream and dove for Rayne. Rayne made a strangled cry before trying to move out of the way. He failed. Nikole grabbed the camera and flipped to it's memory. Her face had a blank expression on it. "It's not here!" she screeched. "He's hiding it somewhere!" I glared at him and ran up to him, pounding on his back. "Give me the video!" I screamed in his ear.

    He winced and pushed us off him, easilt, like he was swatting a fly. "Hey!" we screeched. He ran from the room, bolting down the steps and out of the house. "Argh!" I slapped my forehead. Then I smiled. No one was going to make me sad. I was on a misson to get Nikole more friends.

    "Hey, Nick!" I screamed up the steps. "Yeah?" she shouted back. "You have to drive; I don't have a car." She nodded. "Just tell me where we're going," she said. I smiled. "I'll tell you where to go."

*************

     We pulled up to Zoey's house in fifteen minutes. Nikole was nervous, I could tell. "Hey," I said, clapping her shoulder. "It's going to be fine. I'll help you. They're gonna love you, I promise." She smiled as we confidently got out of the car. I opened Zoey's door as if I owned the place and screamed, "We're here!" I heard loud footsteps as the ran down the steps. "We?" Clairsse asked.

    I smiled in their faces. "Guys, this is Nikole," I said, gesturing to her. "Nick, this is Clarisse, and Zoey." Nikole stood there awkwardly and said, "Hello." with a little wave. "Well, isn't she just the cutest thing I've ever seen!" Zoey said. "Hey, hun, say something else for us." Nikole looked at me and I nodded, eyes shining. "Nice to meet you," she said. Clarisse and Zoey burts out laughing.

    "Gosh, do you her the way she says 'you'? It's like 'yew'!" Clarisse said. "Nikole, you're so adorable! Where did you find her?" I shrugged and said, "Around." Nikole looked embarrassed. "Call me Nick," she said finally. Clarisse and Zoey pinched one of her cheeks as Zoey said, "And she says 'me' like 'may'. Nick you are as cute as a button!" Nikole looked to me for help.

     "Hey, guys?" I said. "You do know she's our age." The stopped talking for a moment. "Really?" Clarisse asked. I nodded, biting my lip. Zoey's smile brightened. "Well, welcome to the club!" she said. I rose an eyebrow. "And what club is that?" I asked. She giggled. "Ours, of course. Club.. uh," she said and trailed off, looking at Clarisse for help. "Club I'll Think Of Something Later!" she said. I sighed.

    "Am I in the club?" I asked hopefully. They looked at my face then burst out laughing. "No, of course not!" Zoey said. My face fell. I felt like crying. "I mean, what did you think, we would just put you in the club just for being our best friends?" Clarisse added. My bottom lip started to tremble as they giggled. I turned my back on them. Rude.

    "Jes!" Zoey said. "Did you think we were serious?" I spun around to see they were looking at me seriously. "Yeah, you're in the club, don't cry, we love you," Clarisse added. I smiled. "In that case, I'll go get us ice cream!" I said. I skipped happily to the freezer. I grabbed a gallon of cookies and cream ice cream before grabbing four spoons.

     "Look what fell from heaven," I heard. I flipped around to see Micah. I rolled my eyes. "Just leave already, Micah," I said. "Cna't you take a hint? I don't like you in any shape, way, or form." He just smiled. "I'll take that challenge," he said, trying to soud seductive. "Jeez!" I said. "Get away from me!" He tried to touch my arm, but I lashed out on him, punching it. "Ow!" he said. "When did you learn to punch like that?" I just skipped out of the room away from him.

    Right as I was getting back to the girls, Micah came after me. "I wasn't done with you!" he said angrily. "Run!" I screamed. "To Zoey's room!" Nikole looked confused, but Clarisse grabbed her arm and pulled her up the steps. I almost ran into Mrs. Manili. "Oh, hi, Mrs. Manili!" I said quickly. "Look, your psycho son is after me, so if you don't mind..." I ran off hearing her crystal laughter and Micah's screams.
