Chapter 19: Plan

The Cheerleader's DareWords: 6208

Amber's POV

"What the hell is she thinking!!??"

When I got home Mandy was already watching a movie in my room. I decided to tell her everything for her to understand Sam's side of the story.

"Yeah.. Sam was just scared you know.. She did what she thought what's right."

"Oh.. and hurting you was right!??"

"No.. Mands, don't be that hard on her. It was a mistake, she knows that.. but she thought it's the right thing to do.. to protect me. I have forgiven her so can you also do that? For me?"

"Ugh. Do I have a choice!? Alright. I believe you.. I believe her. But if she hurt you again.. I swear-"

"Thank you!!" I hugged Mandy to cut her off.

"So what do we do with that fuck boy? What's his name again?" Mandy questioned looking annoyed.

"Shane!? Honestly I don't care.."

"Um, I don't want to sound rude Ambs, But it really can affect the club you know.. we know you and Sam's story.. But how about those people who doesn't? We are still one of the school's organization.. As much as I hate to say this.. We have an image to uphold." Mandy was just being rational. I was so preoccupied about Sam and I. I haven't thought about the severity of what this can cause.

"Oh.. I haven't thought about that.. If this is just about me, I really don't care. But you're right though."

"You and Sam can play along with Shane's game you know.. Until we find a way to get that picture. It's not like he has a sex video scandal of you guys." Mandy added mockingly.

"MANDS!!!!!"

"What!!?? I'm just stating a fact." Mandy laughed even more.

"Jeez, you're unbelievable." If that's the case I have to ignore Sam or even pretend that I hate her. I can't do that can I?

"I don't want Shane to think that he has power to control Sam and I."

"You just have to Ignore Sam.. Act like you don't care. That's it. We can tell this plan to Sam and Sofi at least this time, no one can get hurt."

"Yeah.. I'll talk to Sam tonight.. Do you wan't to stay the night?"

"Nope, uh.. Sofi's parents were on a business trip so... Uhhh.. We kinda plan of having a sleep over in their house.. I just.. Uh.. Want to make sure that uh.. she's safe and I can tell her our plan about.. this thing with Shane and-"

"Oh.., a sleep over huh?" I wiggled my eyebrows to make Mandy even more uncomfortable.

"Stop! Alright! It-it's just a.. Sleepover.. Of course!!!" Mandy can not even hide her embarrassment at the question.

"Yeah right, you say so. Stay SAFE."

"AMBER!!!" Mandy slap my arm and blushed even more.

"What!? Be SAFE.. Going to Sofi's house.. What do you think I'm implying huh?"

"Nothing.. Ugh." Mandy whispered as she get up and fix her things. I laughed at her and throw her some of my pillows."

"You're whipped." I added and giggled.

"Ugh. Just.. Just talk to Sam about the plan.."

"Alright.. Don't worry I won't call you tonight so you wouldn't get interrupted with-"

"Shit Head!!" Mandy threw the pillow back at my face. I chuckled and waved her good bye.

Samantha's POV

RING RING RING RING

"Hey.. I miss youuu.." I answered Amber's call excitingly.

"Me too.. Um.. Sorry Mandy was here awhile ago so I wasn't able to text you immediately.." I suddenly got nervous when Amber mentioned Mandy's name. I hope she doesn't hate me anymore. I hope she didn't convince Amber to stay away from me. I don't want to get in Mandy's bad side especially she's Amber's best friend.

"How was it?"

"Don't worry.. I already explained everything to her. She's not mad anymore.. though.. she was a bit concerned about what other's may think.. Um.. about our club.."

"That's what I thought too.. I don't want to jeopardize your image.. Your'e the President of SKC  and I don't want this mess to affect how people see you.. I'm sor-"

"Hey.. We've been through this right? Also.. Mandy thought of a plan.."

"Which is?" I asked.

"That.. Um.. for the mean time we need to ignore each other.. I mean just in school and as long as Shane's in the area. I don't want to do this.. Because it seems that we are letting Shane control us."

"Oh.."

"No. Don't worry we can find another way to-" I cut Amber off.

"No no no.. It's alright it's a good plan. It's just.. I should've thought about that instead of keeping it from you. God, I'm really stupid am I?" I heard Amber giggled on the other line.

"That's alright babe.. Let's forget about that.." Thank god Amber's very understanding. I can't still believe that she gave me another chance. I wouldn't know what I'll do if I lost this girl.

"So.. are you ready to be ignored?" I can feel the smirk on Amber's lips while she asked those words.

"I'm not.. But I need too.." I wanted to play with Amber so I sounded pretty much sad about the plan. Which I'm really not.

"Hey.. babe.. We just have to pretend.. I can always visit you at home.. Or you can visit me in here.. Don't be sad.. Please?"

"Yeah.." I continued to play sad. I just wanted to hear Amber's soothing voice and sweet talks.

"Awwww babe.. Come on.. If you're not comfortable with that-"

"Noooo I'm just playing with you," I giggled.

"Awww that's unfair.. I thought I made you sad again.. I got worried.."

"You're cute.. I love you." I said and Amber giggled. I just love hearing that from her.

"Oyyieee.. I love you toooo." Amber countered lovingly.

"Oh! So you wouldn't be picking me up tomorrow?" I asked sadly.

"Yeah.. Mandy texted me and Sofi will give you a ride tomorrow. They're having a sleep over tonight.

"Oooohhhhh.. those love birds.."

"Alright.. I'll see you tomorrow. I don't know If I can control myself away from you. Jeez." Amber added sadly.

"Yeah me too.."

"Goodnight Sammy!"

"Goodnight Ambie!"

"Seriously!?? Ambie??"

"What!?? I want it to rhyme.."

"Alright.. I love you. Goodnight."

"Goodnight I love you more. Hugs and kisses."

"..."

"Sam?"

"Yea?"

"Why are you still there?" Amber asked as she giggled.

"Well.. Uhh.. What about you? Why are you still on the line?"

"I'm waiting for you to end the call.."

"God your'e so sweet.."

"Go ahead.."

"No.. You go ahead.."

"Sam.."

"Hmmm?"

"You can now end the call.."

"Haha alright.."

"..."

"Sam!"

"Okay.. Okay.. I'll hit the end button... Bye.. Sweet dreams."

"As long as you're in it. It would be sweet. Bye."

I decided to end the call. Finally I can sleep with a happy heart.
