Guys, Bands, and Money..

Sammy's POV

I woke up the next morning immediately remembering that Nick totally snaked me. I shook my head, no, I was not going to think about that.

I got ready for school and called Marissa to come pick me up with her father. She said to give them like half an hour, so I went downstairs and was greeted with eggs, bacon and toast. Oh, and orange juice. Bleh.

"Good morning, honey." My mom said cheerfully. I yawned and said good morning back. Rubbing the sleep with my hand on one eye, I sat down as my mom put a plate down of food in front of me.

"Thank you." I said and got up to get the ketchup and lemonade when my mom suddenly put it in my face. Not like she shoved it in my face because she was mad, she just put it in my face to show me that it was there. And I almost hit my forehead on the lemonade gallon. "Thank you, again." I said and sat down, to realize that I didn't have a fork, so I got up again, and almost got stabbed by the fork that my mom was handing me without my realizing.

"Thank you again." I huffed and sat down. But then I realized that I didn't have a cup, but I learned my lesson. Instead, I waited a good 10 seconds and then my mom handed me a cup. I said thank you again and let me tell you, I was sick of those words by then.

I ate quickly, drank 3 cups of lemonade because it was really good and then I stayed in the kitchen talking to my mom for a while.

"So where's dad?" I asked absentmindely. My dad was always leaving at random times. 'Business' trips he liked to call them but I've seen him when he gets home afterward. Didn't really look like a business trip. And he wasn't wearing a suit. And he worked at frigging supermarket.

My mom saw me and sighed. "He's, you know, away again." She said and then turned away so I couldn't see her face. I think she knew about the affairs.

"Mom?" I said trying to get her attention.

"Yeah, honey?" She responded, starting to clean the dishes.

"Do you know about Dad?" I asked, before I could stop myself.

She didn't say anything at first, just continued to clean the dishes. She sighed and sniffled every few times and I had a gut feeling that she knew. That she has known this whole time.

"Mom, why don't you get a divorce? No woman should be treated that way." I told her and that's when she finished doing the dishes. She turned off the water, and wiped her hands on a napkin, then she turned to look at me.

"Samantha, divorce isn't an option. Trust me, it never is. A lot of money goes into divorce, money that we can't afford to lose. And he'll want custody of you-" I cut her off.

"Mom, really? We both know that's bull shark. Divorce is only a few tens, and that's just for their services. And Dad does not want me. Sure, sometimes he acts like he cares, but that's to convince himself that he's a good father." I said.

"We'll talk about this later." She said and walked out of the kitchen. Sigh. I walked into the living room and took out my IPod, flipping through song after song. Finally, I got to one that seemed to fit me well enough right now.

(A/N: A.k.a. Because of you by Kelly Clarkson. I'll post the lyrics in the next chapter that has this song. Wait for it. ;p)

I started singing along to it and when it was done, an LMFAO song came on so me being me, I started dancing and singing like a crazy person.

Yo!

I'm running through these hoes like Drano

I got that devilish flow rock and roll no halo

We party rock yea! that's the crew that I'm repping

On a rise to the top no lead in our zeppelin

Hey!

Party rock is in the house tonight

Everybody just have a good time

And we gonna make you lose your mind

Everybody just have a good time

Let's go

Party rock is in the house tonight

Everybody just have a good time

And we gonna make you lose your mind

We just wanna see you!

Shake that!

Every day I'm shuffling

Shuffling shuffling

Step up fast and be the first girl to make me throw this cash

We get money don't be mad now stop hatin's bad

But then someone tapped me on my shoulder, and I quickly whipped around. My mom, Marissa's dad and Marissa were there laughing at me. I blushed a very deep red and swatted Marissa, taking out my headphones from where they were in my ears.

"What's so funny?" I demanded once they were calm enough.

"You were dancing like a crazy nut." Marissa said bursting into giggles her face red.

"You sing very nice honey." My mom said, smiling at me.

Marissa's dad scoffed. "It was more than nice. Samantha, you sing very very well." He smiled at me.

"Marissa can you sing?" My mom asked her.

"A little." She blushed.

"Why don't you form a band?" Marissa's dad and my mom exclaimed in unison. Marissa and I looked at each other and shrugged.

"Maybe." I said.

"We'll ask the girls." Marissa added.

"Okay, well you guys are gonna be late. Sammy, grab your backpack. Don't forget your phone and remember to shut off your room light." My mom said. I nodded and went upstairs to grab my backpack and my phone that was charging on my windowsill. (A/N: I accidentally typed windshield..)

I checked my text messages and my call archive and found nothing, other than a text from Marissa saying that they'll be there soon. I sighed and Marissa flopped down on the bed.

"Did he text you?" She asked, looking at my expression.

"No." I said stuffing my phone into my backpack.

"He said he would but he didn't?" Marissa asked confused.

"He didn't say that he would, he asked for my number, I gave it to him and told him to text me." I tried to reason. Why was I sticking up for him though? Stupid confuzzled brain.

"He asked for your number. What do you think he was going to do with it?" Marissa asked in a duh tone.

"I don't know. And I don't want to ride the Train of Logic. We'll talk about this later." I said, walking out with Marissa right behind me.

"We'll ask the girls about it." Marissa said and I could tell that she rolled her eyes.

"Mom, can I have ten dollars for after school?" I asked as Marissa and I reached the living room.

"Sure, give me the change if there's any left over." She said, giving me the ten and I rolled my eyes.

"I still don't understand why you say that." I said.

"That money goes into your college fund." She said.

"I thought my money had to go in there." I said trying to outsmart her.

"Samantha, we go over this at least 4 times a week." She said. "I'm giving you the money, so therefore it's yours." She said, and Marissa rolled her eyes at our argument.

"But I have to give back the money, or what's left of it afterward." I responded.

She sighed. "Yeah, but it's your money that I gave you and your not giving it back to me, your giving it to me so that I could put somewhere else." She tried-and failed- to reason with me.

"Okay, sure mom. Let's go with that." I gave her a hug and a kiss. "By mom, see you later." I called as me and Marissa left.

A/N: Okay, here it is. :D And those LMFAO lyrics are from . They're not mine and personally, I think they're wrong. I think it's just me. Do you guys think it's wrong? I mean, just by reading them, I'm like, 'Is that even in the song?' But I just sing the song really fast so I wouldn't know if it's right or wrong. Someone tell me?

And review! I'll update TCF tomorrow and MLBRA on Thursday or Friday.
