Chapter 1
"Kaylee, do we have any eggs?" asked Elizabeth. "Nope, I finished them yesterday," her roommate replied. "We need bread, too!" "Okay. So that's milk, tomatoes, lettuce, fruit, Ritz crackers, hamburger patties, hamburger buns, deli meat, eggs, and bread?" Elizabeth said as she checked over her grocery list. "Yeah, I think so." "Cool, I'll be back in a few," she called as she grabbed her purse and walked out the door. Elizabeth got in the car and head for the grocery store right down the street from her L.A. apartment. She found a good parking spot near the door, and grabbed a shopping cart on her way in. Since produce was first thing when she walked in, Elizabeth got lettuce first, then a few tomatoes. She pondered for a second on which fruit to get. Some strawberries, maybe. A watermelon, since they were just coming back in season.... And even though Elizabeth didn't love them, Kaylee always appreciated it when she bought pears, since they were her favorite. The pear display was nearest. A man was standing there. He was tall, young, and had light brown hair. He looked around as Elizabeth pulled her cart up to the display, and Elizabeth saw that he was pretty hot. "Ummm... how do you tell if a pear is ripe?" Elizabeth asked him hopelessly. Ugh. Darn her inability to pick pears. The man looked at her, smiled like he was remembering something happy, and said in the most perfect voice (to Elizabeth, anyway) that she had ever heard, "You check the neck." "Uhhhh...." She was unable to do anything but stare blankly at him. Also, she had no clue what "check the neck" meant. "Here, let me help you." He got a produce bag and handed it to her, then started picking out pears. He put a few down, but put four in her produce bag. "That enough?" "Yep... I don't like pears much. My roommate does though, I'll let her have them." "You know, my band sponsored pears once... I'm kind of sick of them now, though. Whatevs." "You're in a band?" "Yep. Honor Society." Honor Society... it reminded her of a band, but she couldn't remember anything but that. "Well I gotta go," he said. "It was nice meeting you. What's your name?" "Elizabeth." "Cool. I'm Alex."

Chapter 2
The next day, Elizabeth went back to the grocery store, telling Kaylee she had forgotten to get something. She had told Kaylee what had happened, but she didn't care too much, and would think the real reason was weird. Really, she wanted to meet Alex again! First, she lurked around the entrance, then realized she probably looked like a stalker, so moved to the pear display. Wait. He doesn't like pears. Right. Ugh, she thought, I'm so stupid! He just went grocery shopping YESTERDAY! Why would he be here again?! Thinking she could pretend it was what she had forgotten, Elizabeth head to the cereal aisle. She picked up a box of Frosted Flakes and walked towards the checkout. Suddenly, she heard a voice behind her. "Hey." It was the same voice.... It was Alex! "Back so soon?" She turned around. "Hi... um... i just forgot to get cereal yesterday." Then she realized something. "Why are you here again?" "Ummm...," Alex looked around for something to pick up so he could pretend he had come back for it. Realizing it was no use, he said, "Okay... fine. I came back to... to see if you'd be here." "Oh." "Yeah... I'll just... leave." "Wait. No! That's why I came here, too," Elizabeth said, deciding honesty was the best policy in this situation. "Okay.... We should have dinner sometime," said Alex, suddenly completely confident. That was nowhere close to how Elizabeth felt. But she liked him.... Suddenly it was really easy to answer. "Yeah, that'd be great," said Elizabeth, smiling. Her smile is perfect, Alex thought. They exchanged numbers. They each felt like they knew each other now, which was strange, considering they had only had two five-minute conversations before. Either way, it was easy to talk to one another. "So, I'll see you around," said Alex. "Okay, see you!" Wow... that was easy, Elizabeth thought. And almost too fast. Oh well... time to go shopping!

-similiar to the other one, if you would like to be the love interest of one of the other guys, send me a message or post here your name and which guy, and maybe a short description of yourself, just so i can describe you (but if you'd rather not, that's fine too.) -how do you feel about the changing perspectives?

the newest chapter is so cute. (:
i like when stories have changing perspectives because it keeps it interesting and helps you understand the story more by getting in the characters' minds a little bit.

Chapter 3
Mike wondered if Alex had seen that girl at the grocery store again, because he was taking way longer than he should. Of course, it could always just be traffic. Alex had said that he'd met a pretty girl at the grocery store, she seemed nice, and he hoped to meet her again soon. "You were nice to her, right? Did you pretend to care about what she was saying?" Mike had asked. "I did care, Mike. She was cool." "Well, you know what I mean," Mike had said with a laugh. "They like it when you listen." "Yeah, yeah, whatevs...," said Alex, and he drifted off into a daydream. Now, Mike was watching television in sweats on the couch. He flipped the channels and stopped at the Disney Channel. He was just curious. He'd never seen this show before. It was about a girl named Teddy and her family. The baby was cute, but the rest of them were mean to each other. Mike kept watching for a while, but remembered that Alex would be back soon, so he kept his thumb on the channel button. "Bro! Guess what?" yelled Alex as he stepped through the door. "What! What?" Mike jumped as Alex came in and flipped the channel quickly. Alex was too excited to notice that Mike was looking a little guilty. "I've got a date! Tomorrow night! With Elizabeth!" "That's awesome, dude!" "Yeah, I know! Okay Mike, we gotta get you a girlfriend now." said Alex. "She's your girlfriend already?" "Well, not yet... depends how tomorrow goes. But still!" "Whatever you say, Al..." said Mike, getting absorbed in a TV program. "Check it out, Silent Library!" "Uh, I don't think I wanna watch that show," Alex said, and went to his room. Looking through his closet, he found a nice shirt that she would hopefully like... Back in the living room, Mike was thinking about what Alex had said. He did kind of want a girlfriend...

I've already started working on Chapter 4, so that might be up tomorrow, but my concert's tomorrow, so don't be too surprised if it doesn't go up. I'm going to keep writing, but I'm becoming increasingly busier and I won't be able to post up as often.
