Madison awoke the next morning next to Benji, wearing only the comforter. Benji looked at her and smiled. Tatum knocked on the door. "Madison. Benji. We have to go."
"Oh shit!" Madison whispered, falling out of the bed. Benji went to his closet and got dressed. Madison was still looking for her bag. "Where is it?"
Benji looked around the room. "Did you leave it in the living room... or Tates car?"
"Fuck! It's in the car." Madison put on her clothes from yesterday. She ran from Benji's room to the front door.
"Hey! Where're you going in such a hurry?" Joel asked.
"Uh..." Madison turned slowly. "To Tates car. I left something in it."
"Like your clothes?" Tatum grinned.
"Yea, I just slept in this." Madison tried to sound convincing.
Tatum stood there. "Yea, well you better change. We leave in five minutes."
Madison went to the car and sighed with relief that Tatum didn't say anything. "Do they know? Oh God I hope not." she said to herself.
Benji was sitting on the couch when Madison came back into the room. Benji smiled at her making her blush. Joel looked from his brother to the blushing girl. "What exactly went on while we were gone last night?"
"Nothing." Benji smirked.
Tatum sat in Joels lap. "OK, now I know something happened."
Madison turned bright red and hurridly ran to the bathroom. Benji cleared his throat, "Nothing that concerns you." He told her, going to his bedroom.
Tatum sat back in a huff. "I bet they had sex."
Joel looked at Tatum. "Why do you say that?"
"I don't know. But Maddy was walking funny."
Benji came out of his room the same time Madison came out of the bathroom and colided with her. "I'm sorry babe." He said helping her up.
"I'm fine." She smiled.
Tatum looked at Joel with an 'I told you so' look. "Can we go yet?"
Benji and Madison nodded.

Madison sat in the backseat with Benji. She leaned on his shoulder and entwined her fingers with his. "Where are we going?" She asked.
Joel looked back at them. "Somewhere." He grinned.
Madison sighed. Benji smiled and kissed her forhead. "Joel, just tell us."
"Can't."
"Why not?" Madison complained.
Tatum looked at her in the rear view mirror. "Because I told him if he did he'd be sorry."
"Oooh! No sex for a day." Benji teased.
Tatum stopped the car abruptly at the stop sign causing Benji to hit his head on her seat. "Shut up Benji."
Madison smacked Tatum in the head. "Be nice to him."
Joel sighed and turned on the CD player. It started playing 'Grow up' by Simple Plan. Joel sighed and changed the CD.
"What are you doing Joelseph? I like that CD." Tatum frowned.
Joel smirked and put in New Found Glory. "But you listen to it all the time." He whined.
"Shut up! You sound like an old married couple." Madison said, kicking Joels seat.
Tatum stopped the car infront of Borders book and music store. "You know, I should have left you at home to screw s'more." She said getting out of the car.
Madison sat there wide eyed. "W-- what?"
Joel laughed and followed Tatum inside. Benji hugged Madison close to him. "Wanna do something?"
She looked at him and shrugged. Benji grinned as he leaned in and kissed her. Madison smiled and layed back on the seat with Benji on top of her.
Someone passed by the car. "Oh my God!"
Madison looked and saw Kat and Paul. She blushed and tried to hide under Benji.
Chelsea and Jordan were at the other window. "Madison you little tramp! You've known him all of three days?" Chelsea laughed.
Madison felt her cheeks burning. "Please make them go away." she whispered to Benji.
Benji sat up and glared at Paul out the window. "Go away."
Paul laughed. "No. We're supposed to meet for lunch."
Jenni and Billy walked up to the car. Jenni looked confused then saw Madison sitting in the back of the car hiding her face. "What happened?" She asked.
Jordan tried not to laugh. "Madison and Benji were getting it on in the backseat."
"eeewwww!!!" Jenni grimaced.
Billy started laughing at Jenni. He hugged her from behind and walked into the store with her.
Madison got out of the car and Benji followed. She walked into Borders and bumped into Joel. "Sorry." She looked behind her and saw everyone else coming in behind her. She blushed and walked quickly over to the music.
Joel looked at her strangely and followed her. "What's up Madison?"
"Nothing..." She picked up a Metallica CD and pretended to look at it.
Joel leaned in and whispered to Madison, "You're lip stick is smeared a little." He grinned.
Madison used her sleeve and wiped her mouth. "Thanks..."
"Did they catch you making out with Benji in the car?" He grinned.
Madison blushed, set down the CD and began walking towards the childrens books.
Benji came into the store slowly, scanning the room for Madison. He saw her neer the childrens books and walked over to her. "Hey Madison."
"Hi Benji," She looked around and saw no one within ear shot. "so?"
Benji looked around and shrugged. He took Madison towards the adult book section.
"What are we doing here?" She asked, slightly confused.
Benji grinned and kissed Madison.
"Oh my God!"
Madison pulled away from Benji and snuck off behind a book shelf.
"hello Amanda." Benji said with a hint of anger in his voice.
"We break up and you're with the next tramp you see walking down the street? God Benji you are a loser. I don't know what I saw in you." Amanda stepped closer and made Benji back into the wall. "You know you still want me Benji. I can see it in your eyes."
Tears started to well up in Madisons eyes. She didn't want to be hurt like this again. She watched Amanda's lips get closer to Benji's. She covered her mouth and turned away. She slowly ran to the small coffee shop in the corner of Borders and sat with Tatum.
Benji pushed Amanda away. "I don't want you. I never will. I'm with Madison. You're just a selfish bitch that wanted Joel and used me as a substitute hoping you could come between Joel and Tatum."
"You bastard." She almost growled. She slapped him across the face and walked away from him.
Benji rubbed his cheek and looked around the corner for Madison. "Madison?" He saw her sitting with Tatum. He walked over to them. "Madison what's wrong?"
