.::Sink Relation[ships]::.

You won't be leaving my arms ever I promise you that Even if you want me to let go, Honey Even if you say the things that make me want to lose you... I LOVE chiodos. :]

Ella listened to Sanger’s voice blasting from the amp and felt the vibrations from her bass. Joel’s drumming could make her go deaf and Evan’s guitar was phenomenal. Mandy, Evan’s girlfriend was sitting on the couch listening to it all with Ray. Ray was tapping his toes and Mandy was smiling like a fool.

            Ella brushed her purple and brown hair out of her face when the song ended. Her heart was beating really fast and it felt like her blood was rushing one hundred miles an hour in her body. She loved it. She really wanted to do this forever.

“Ella, hello, you zoned out on us again.” said Joel waving his drumstick in front of her face.

“Sorry, I was just thinking. So what do you guys think?”

“I really like him, I mean it. I really like it.” said Mandy smiling at Evan.

“I think it’s pretty good, just the bridge needs some work.” said Ray. He was like the band’s go to guy. He always helped them in improving their songs. He helped them out with their equipment and booked them shows. He was almost like a manger but more of a close friend.

“What do you mean the bridge needs work, it was perfect!” said Mandy emphasizing the word perfect.

“You mean he’s perfect.” said Sanger with a smirk on his face. Mandy began blushing like crazy.

“Well, I was thinking maybe they could work some keyboard into. Create kind of a techno rock sound.” said Ray.

“Sounds like a great idea.” said Ella smiling at him.

“And of course she agrees.” said Sanger once more making a smart comment.

“Sanger, you better stop that.” said Mandy punching him lightly in the arm.

“Ouch, Ella punch her in the nose!”

“No, I like her I’m not going to punch her.”

“Yeah you will.”

“No, I won’t.”

“Yes.”

“No.”

“Yes!”

“No!”

“Q-tips!”

“Cotton balls!” said Ella whacking him in the back of the head.

“You were suppose to hit her.” whined Sanger.

“Just shut up.” said Evan wrapping his arms around Mandy.

“At least one of us can make a relationship work.” said Ella.

If only you knew. Thought Evan.

“Mandy, I really need to tell you something and I know you’re going to get mad and probably hate me.” He started.

“Let’s go outside.” said Mandy walking out the door.

“I, um, well, I met this girl at Blockbusters and she asked me out. I said yes but I was going to tell her that I had a girlfriend.”

“Well, I have no problem as long as she’s just a friend like Ella.” She said grabbing his hand.

“Well, I went on the date yesterday and we went to the Dinner Diner. We talked and at the end when I was going to tell her about you, she, um, she kissed me.” by now Evan’s heart was racing.

“She kissed you.” Mandy whispered. Evan could see the unshed tears forming in her eyes.

“I’m never going to see her again I promise. I didn’t know that that was going to happen and I shouldn’t have let her go that far. I really like what we have and I don’t want to mess it up.” He said taking her hands again.

“Well, guess what you just did.” she said storming towards her car.

“Mandy wait I’m sorry. Please come back.” He said running after her. “Mandy, wait, I love you.” he said stopping. Mandy turned around.

“If you loved me, I would have to come first. I should have been the first word out of your mouth on your date with that, er, I can’t think. I’m going to go home and I will call you later and talk to you when my mind’s cleared.” she said getting in the car and racing down the street.

            Evan walked back inside. His eyes were tearing up. Yes, Evan was crying.

“Evan what’s wrong?” Ella said running up to him and hugging him.

“I think we broke up.” he said whipping away his tears.

“I know it hurts, I mean you have been dating her for two years now.”

“Two amazing years, and I being my stupid self threw it away.” he said sitting down on the couch.

“We’re here for you. She’ll probably come around and take you back. What did you do?” said Ray sitting down next to him.

            All of them stayed with Evan that night. Evan told them the whole story and Ella even called Mandy to find out how she was doing. Both of them were a wreck, but they finally got Evan to laugh by putting in Scary Movie 3.

            After about two hours everyone was asleep except Ella and Ray.

“I’m hungry.” said Ella getting up and stepping over the sleeping bodies on the floor. She made her way to the kitchen with Ray following slowly behind her.

“I have chocolate or vanilla.”

“I’ll take chocolate.”

“But that’s the one I wanted.” whined Ella.

“Fine, I’ll take vanilla.”

“No, you’re the guest and you wanted chocolate.” she said smearing ice cream on Ray’s face.

“Ah, cold.” whined Ray.

“Oh, suck it up. Hey!” said Ella as Ray smeared ice cream on her face.

“See it is cold.” he said washing the ice cream off his face and grabbing a spoon. She turned around to find Ray smirking at her.

“What?” she said confused. She then understood what Ray was smirking about when she felt something cool run down her face. “You little muffin! You put ice cream in my hair!” she said running into the bathroom to look at herself in the mirror.

“I’m sorry, please forgive me. I just couldn’t resist.” he said like a little kid.

“Well, resist this.” said Ella spraying Ray with the shower faucet. Ray squealed a little. “Say mercy!! Say it!!”

“Fine, mercy.” he said.

“Hehe, you’re soaked.” she said.

“Well, now you are too.” he said hugging her.

“Aw thanks Ray.” she said sarcastically.

“What are you two fighting about?” said a sleepy Sanger as he walked into the kitchen. His hair was all messed up and it was sticking out all over the place. Ella laughed at this.

“I need to go wash the ice cream out of my hair.” said Ella leaving the room.

“Oh, ice cream where?!?” Sanger rushed into the kitchen and started gulping the ice cream down. “Ouchy, I have a brain freeze. Ray, kiss it and make it better.” he whined.

“I’m sorry Sanger, but I don’t swing that way.” Sanger mumbled something inaudible in response to this.

            Ella finally finished washing her hair and decided that since it was now five in the morning that she should go grab breakfast.

“Sanger, do you want to get breakfast with me?” said Ella grabbing Sanger by the arm and pulling him out the door.

“Fine, but you have to drive.”

“Okay, you know I would be on the road if my parents would buy me a car. I want my own car, I mean I have my license but what’s the point in having it if you can’t drive.” rambled Ella as she drove to Krispy Kreme to get donuts. Sanger had fallen back asleep as Ella went inside to get the glazed morsels.

“Sanger, wake up. We’re at my house.” said Ella shaking him awake.

“What? Oh, yeah. I thought you were going to rape me.”

“Um, Sanger, you can’t rape the willing.” she said smirking back at him.

“And who says I’m willing?” he said smirking back.

“Your face.” she said running inside.

“Wait! What!” Sanger looked at himself in the car mirror. Rape me was written on his face with sharpie. “Ella! I’m going to eat you and the scrumptious donuts.” said Sager running into the house.

“Sorry, SG, but we ate them all.” said Evan licking his fingers.

“Off to school!” said Ella grinning at Sanger and walking past him.

“SG, I never knew you were that desperate to get a girlfriend.” said Ray patting his back as he walked past him.
