HEY ALL!!! This is just a quick little update. I hope all my US readers are enjoying the holiday...me on the other hand I'm stuck up here in snowy Canada (Yes we got more snow and it doesn't seem to be melting) and wishing that our Thanksgiving wasn't so damn early cause I would totally love a holiday right now:) Hope you enjoy!!

"…And he explained everything to us, about him and Tracy in high school and how he didn't even know about Tracy having the baby. Oh and she was the one who kissed him, not the other way around. So now I guess Tracy wants to try and find their son, and that's what I heard them arguing about, my Dad still isn't sure about the whole situation. He feels horrible about me finding out this way but now my parents are totally relieved that we both know everything and I guess Tracy told Naomi last night so watch out she might be on a total rampage…I mean more than she normally is." Annie finished the long explanation and took a swig of her Dr. Pepper.

They sat at a corner table at The Pit, with Nat's curious eyes watching them from behind the counter. Silver had waited at Annie's locker before first period hoping to catch her there so they could talk before class, but her heart began to sink when the bell rang and there was still no sign of Annie. Making her way to first period, late again, she had been utterly surprised at the feel of a soft hand pressing down on her shoulder. We need to talk, wanna skip class and go to The Pit? And there they sat.

"Silver aren't you going to say something?" Annie asked with a worried expression on her face.

"I just can't believe…I mean you must feel so…your parents they must be…Shit Annie I'm absolutely no good at this family stuff. I can never seem to find the right words." Silver whispered casting her eyes down to the table completely mortified at her utter lack of knowledge in this area.

A warm hand reached across the table and covered both of hers. Slowly looking up at Annie Silver couldn't help but smile at the comical look on her face. "Jesus Silver, I don't need you to have the perfect words or any words at all I just need you to be there for me, which by the way you totally were, so extra girlfriend points there…I'm thinking we so need some french fries, its not too early is it?" Annie said in a care free, smiling at the slack jaw expression on the girl sitting across from her.

"Extra girlfriend points? So I guess that means were dating?" Silver asked in a monotone voice, not wanting to show Annie the pure pleasure that was coursing through her body.

"Oh God not if you don't want to be…I mean I just thought that after…" Annie stopped mid sentence when she noticed the look of pure joy on Silver's face. "Ok well after that I'm going to have to deduct you some girlfriend points… that was mean Silver." She said the words but there was a huge smile plastered on her face as she sipped from her Dr. Pepper.

"Well I guess I'm gonna have to make it up to you somehow then." Silver said as she grabbed Annie's hand and began tracing patterns on the inside of her wrist.

"Hmhmm…ummm" Random sounds seemed to be all that Annie was capable of as the feeling of Silver's finger tracing over the sensitive flesh of her wrist sent shock waves through her body.

"Annie Wilson would you like to go out on a date with me this Friday?"

"I'd love to…where are we gonna go?" Annie asked curiosity evident in her voice.

"It's a surprise…so don't even try and figure it out…and I think we should nix the french fries and hightail it back to school before your Dad and my sister have our heads, because together they could make our life at high school miserable, just think about it the principal and guidance councillor using their powers for evil…"

Annie threw some money on the table, grabbed Silver and began pulling her out the door, not even letting her finish her little scenario. When they were both buckled into their seats Annie turned to face Silver; hands clasped together and best puppy dog face on. "Please can I have just one little hint…please?"

Silver looked directly into Annie's eyes, avoiding looking at her completely gorgeous face because that alone would make her cave, and she smiled a very evil smile. "Nope not even one hint…it's a surprise." Silver laughed as she started up the car and made their way back to school.

"Silver I don't do too well with surprises…you know, I like to prepare for things…be ready." Annie said not able to hide the tinge of worry in her voice.

"I know that's exactly why this is going to be so fun."
