~Chapter 13~

"No!  I can't do it!"  Howie shouted as he paced back and forth.
"D it's now or never.  You have to tell her how you feel."  AJ said.
Kevin added, "Yeah.  You never know when she'll find someone she likes."
"Ha!"  Lori laughed from the hot tub.
"What do you mean ha?"  Kevin asked.
"Well it's just that she hasn't been on a date in two years, ever since she got her heart broken by Eric."  Lori answered.  Immediately Amanda slapped Lori on the shoulder.
"Ow~  What did you do that for?"
"You know we're not supposed to say anything about that!"  Amanda shouted.  "You idiot!"
"I'm sorry!  I didn't realize she still would care if we told."  Lori apologized.
"Well forget it cause here she comes."  Kevin pointed out.  They all turned and saw Holly walk off the elevator towards the pool room door.  Everybody left Howie standing alone waiting for Holly.

~Chapter 14~

"Hey Howie."  Holly said as she walked over by him.
"Hi."  Howie said.  "I guess you're wondering why I want to talk to you."
"Well, it would be nice to know."  Holly said as she sat down on the edge of the pool.  "So what do you want to talk to me about?"
Howie sat down next to her.  "Umm...I.....I need some....advice, yeah that's it, some advice."  Howie stuttered.
----------
"Man, D isn't going to tell her."  AJ scowled
"How can you tell?"  Amanda asked.
"Yeah. I mean we can't hear a thing they are saying."  Lori added.
AJ answered, "I just have this feeling."
----------
"Advice?"  Holly asked.  "Advise about what?"
"Well I know this girl and I want to know how to tell her I like her."  Howie answered.
~Great the guys will be mad that I'm not telling her.~  Howie thought.
"Well, you could just tell her out in the open."  Holly said,  "Or you could surprise her.  That's really the only ways I can think of."
"Ok.  Thanks that's just what I wanted to talk about."  Howie said.
"Oh ok."  Holly said as she got in the pool.
"Oh yeah!  A small word of advice, you should tell her that you love her before she walks out of your life."  And with that Holly started to walk off towards the deeper end of the pool.
----------
"Damn it!  He didn't tell her!"  shouted Lori.  She was watching Holly and Howie talking a long with Amanda, Kevin, and AJ.
"She's walking away!  She's walking away!"  Amanda yelled.
"Well D is going to have to say good bye to that relationship."  AJ said.
----------
~Damn!  I should have told her!~  Howie though as he watched Holly walk away.  Howie quickly jumped in the pool and started to run after Holly  shouting, "Holly!  Wait!  Wait!"
Holly stopped where she was and turned around.
"What?"  she asked as Howie ran up to her.
----------
"Look!  I think he is going to tell her!"  Amanda shouted.
"Well duh!  I knew that was going to happen."  AJ said.
"No you didn't!  You said he would have to say bye bye to that relationship!"  Amanda yelled.
"Oh shut up you dumb blond!"  AJ yelled.
"What?!  What did you call me?!"  Amanda screamed.  She then pushed AJ in to the pool, sunglasses and all.
----------
"Holly"  Howie started to say, "I didn't really want advice from you.  Really, I wanted to tell you.....that I love you.  You're the girl that I was talking about.  I fell in love with you as soon as I saw you when you opened that door."
"Howie,"  Holly said.  "I love you too."  And with that Holly and Howie kissed.
Amanda had jumped in after AJ and was now pulling his hair and kicking and punching him.  Kevin quickly came over and pulled Amanda away and Lori just sat on the edge of the pool watching Amanda try to kill AJ.
"You know, they aren't going to stop."  Lori acknowledged  While Kevin was dragging Amanda away he asked,
"What?  Who won't stop?"
Lori pointed to Holly and Howie who were still kissing.
