(a/n: not a script. I promise.)

 

At 12:15 the next day, the phone in Benji’s room started ringing.

 

“Hello?” answered a drowsy Benji.

 

“Hey. Can I talk to Benji?” asked the voice on the other end.

 

“This is Benji, who’s this?”

 

“Oh hey! It’s Emma. Did I wake you up?”

 

“Yeah but that’s ok. I should be getting up anyways.”

 

“Sorry. Anyways! Are we gonna do something today?”

 

“If you want to. I don’t know what we could do.”

 

“Hmm. Me either.”

 

“I’ll talk to Joel, I’m sure he will know what we can do. You call Roxi; she might have some ideas too.”

 

“Okey dokey! I’ll talk to you later Benj.”

 

“Bye.”

 

They both hung up the phone and Benji walked down the hallway towards his brother’s room as Emma dialed Roxi’s number.

 

“Yo Joel!” Benji called out as he strolled down the hallway. He passed the bathroom and not only did he hear the shower running, he also heard Joel singing.. “She’s so automatic, and it makes me…” he was singing Rancid. Benji waited and listened for a while before knocking on the door. “Dude! You’re singing in the shower!”

 

When he said this, Benji heard Joel drop the shampoo bottle. “BENJI!! I thought you were asleep!” Benji walked away laughing as Joel finished up in the shower.

 

…………………………………………………………………..

 

On the other end of the phone, Emma heard the busy signal so she hung up then dialed Benji’s number again.

 

“Hello?”

 

“Hey Benj. It’s Emma. Roxi’s phone is busy. Talk to Joel?”

 

“Well,” Benji paused, chuckling a little, “ I tried.”

“What’s so funny and what do you mean you ‘tried’?”

 

“I caught him singing in the shower! It was hilarious. I think he’s pissed now!”

 

Emma laughed a little. “So… what are we going to do?”

 

“Hold on. Joel just got out of the shower.”

 

“Kay.”

 

Benji made his way down the hallway once again and met Joel as he was on his way to his own room with a towel wrapped around his waist.

 

“Joel, are you doing anything today?”

 

“Aaron wanted us to come over and check out his new drum set.”

 

“Roxi going?”

 

“Of course!”

 

“Mind if Emma comes?”

 

“Nope.”

 

Benji returned to his room and picked up the phone. “Em. We are all just gonna hang out at Aaron’s. Wanna go?”

 

“Sure, why not?”

 

“Ok. Hold on again. I’m gonna see who’s gonna take us there.” Benji covered the phone and yelled, “JOEL! WHO’S TAKING US THERE?!”

 

From his room Joel yelled back, “JOSH!”

 

Benji uncovered the phone and began to talk to Emma again. “Josh is gonna take us. Wanna come over now?”

 

“No.” Emma said bluntly.

 

“No? Why?” he questioned, somewhat worried.

 

“Dude, you just woke up right?”

 

“Umm… yeah….”

 

“Then you need to take a shower!”

 

“Oh.. right.” Benji replied, relieved.

 

“Kay. Go take a shower Stinky Boy and call me when you are ready.”

 

“Stinky Boy?! How would you know if I stink? Huh?”

 

“Because, you are a boy, and boys stink, so that would make you a stinky boy!”

 

“Well, you’re a stinky girl!!”

 

“No, I’m not. I took a shower and I discovered deodorant! Plus, only gross girls stink!”

 

“I know what deodorant is and I use it! So there!”

 

“Okay whatever! Go take a shower Benji!”

 

“Alrighty, but don’t think about me naked.”

 

“Oh shut up! I’m hanging up now! Toodles!”

 

“Fine. Bye.”

 

When he hung up, Benji grabbed his towel and rushed to the bathroom to take a shower. He wanted to hurry because he was finally going to get to hang out with Emma again.

 

(a/n: if this looks all ‘scriptish’ to you then I am truly sorry! It’s hard writing phone convo’s without a lot of dialogue. Anywhoo! Benji is stinky. Lol! Thank you SOOOO much to those of you who have reviewed my story! It means so much! Also, this is written in pink, because I felt like it! If you have a problem with that then… too bad!)
