 REMEMBER ALL THOSE TIMES WHENwe laughed and cried. i'll always be there for you - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - these were one of those nights where danni just had to breathe in the fresh air. she loved the smell of water on grass, the way dirt squished through her toes, and how the dark sky illuminated the glow of the stars. it was almost like a fairytale. she smiled as she drove her car through the park. her car had been her dad's. it was a beat up white 1975 cadillac eldorado. even though she wasn't a big fan of getting attached to things, this car was hers. it was the only thing she really clung onto. she even had a name for it- which might seem a bit cliche, but it was true. she called it the 'super fly'. it was actually starting to rust, the hood was. she didn't mind the looks of it. seriously. anyways, it was a stick shift and her dad told her that most people didn't know how to drive one, so she didn't have to worry about someone stealing it. she took a deep breath, loving the sound that her super fly made. the seats were worn down, but it made it that much more homey. danni put her hand into her blond hair, smiling. she hadn't felt this free since... since, well, she couldn't remember a time.
growing up, she and her brothers lived in a boat house. it had been an amazing experience and really, she never forgot it. something about the water attracted danni and it was mostly because she lived on water for a couple years. she glanced outside, watching the sprinklers go off onto the grass. she yearned to dance in the mud, but she resisted. it would look ridiculous and really, she couldn't afford to get her gray dress messy. she usually did anything to look good and this temptation was just one of them. the dress costed a fortune and she didn't even want to go into how she got the money. she could virtually rob a bank if she wanted to. of course, she'd have to ditch the laptop and most likely be caught, but still. possibilities were in the air. she smirked at the thought. she might have to do something like one day though. it'd be fun.
danni got to the parking lot that was near a couple of picnic benches. it was almost twelve at night, but curfews weren't something that she really followed. if she was found here, she could be expelled. ah, it didn't matter. she was fine for the time being. she stopped the car engine and took out a sandwich from her backpack. she skipped lunch 'cause she was doing something on her laptop. she got out of the car and sat on the top of the hood. lucky for her the sprinklers were only going off in back of her. it must've done this patch of grass by now. danni took her red high heels off and leaned back on the front windows. she put her legs on in front of her and stared out into the open skies. sometimes she wished that she could go back in time, looking out to the stars, without a care in the world.

REMEMBER ALL THOSE TIMES WHENwe laughed and cried. i'll always be there for you - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - the cool midnight breeze was starting to get cool, but danni didn't care at all. she hadn't brought a jacket or anything- simply because it wouldn't match with what she wearing at the moment. when it came to coordination, color was very important. she took some lip gloss out of her bag and applied it on. something about lipstick wasn't too appealing to her and it often took attention away from a good outfit. she smiled at her results, knowing she had to look perfect at every moment. sometimes looking good, in her case, was an obsession. she didn't care who or what it was, it had to be just right. danni rested her barefeet on the headlights and stared up at the sky. times like these were rare and she knew that she had to take it all in before going back to the school. it wasn't even school, really. it was for people who had problems. almost like an insane asylum for minors. what fun, she sarcastically thought and rolled her eyes. of course. of all places, her mom and dad chose this 'school' to send her to. what were they- stupid? the advertisement must've looked that good. she knew they'd never send her here if they knew what was going on. whatever. danni didn't want to care. she didn't need her family. of course, that was what she was trying to convince herself of. her hazel eyes flicked down. if there was one thing she wanted, it was a distraction. thinking of these sappy things were starting to get to her.
it was almost as if fate heard her plea for help when she heard her name... well, kinda. the last time she heard someone call her 'daniel' was... wow, it was that long ago? must've been at least ten years ago. time was going by fast! danni used to be a tomboy- which was now hard to believe, but if you really tried, it wasn't too difficult. that was where she got her spunky attitude. she used to want to be one of the boys. be part of their group. she thought all the girls were too prissy, playing with their barbies and waiting around for their ken. she hadn't wanted to be part 'that fun'. she loved hanging out with the tough guys and well, it had been fun for a while. she even had been on a T-ball team when she was in the second grade. the first time she got a home run was a complete accident. danni had hit it, nearly knocking the pitcher out cold, ran to third base, to second, to first, then home. they counted it either way. it was supposed to be a friendly game.
his voice... it still rang out to her. she used to love the way his voice was naturally a bit softer. she couldn't believe that it might be him. would it be? he was the only one who called her daniel- as if she were one of the guys still. her past started flashing certain scenes. preschool. making a huge mess with glue and glitter. the teachers left the two in the room for only a minute and the next thing they knew, glitter and glue were everywhere. first grade. danni had gotten into a fight with mollie brown for teasing her best friend. second grade. everyone thought she had the cooties and he was the only one who would dare to even go close to her. third grade. a huge lake party and he saved her from drowning. fourth grade. danni had a huge crush on him and had no idea how to hide those feelings. fifth grade. it was his birthday the day they had to move. well, happy eleventh birthday. all the scenes slowly faded away and she was frozen, not knowing what to do.
there was only one person who knew all those scenes. sidney saunders. she was speechless for a moment. finally, she somehow got her voice back. "saun-," she started in a hoarse tone before clearing her throat. "saunders?" danni asked, when her speech was back to normal. when she was younger, she called people by their last names and for her, she never got over the fact his name was sidney, not saunders. oh well. some habits were hard to break. she turned back, only to see that it really was him. his eyes were still friendly brown and his hair had grown out a little more. that reminded her of the time she convinced him to let her cut his hair for him. he wore regular clothes, but it was still a huge difference from his fifth grade self. "is that really you?" she asked, breathlessly. she wasn't sure it was him, but it was only because she never thought she'd ever see him again. tag . "saunders"

REMEMBER ALL THOSE TIMES WHENwe laughed and cried. i'll always be there for you - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - just seeing that it was him- it was really him!- made her cheeks flush. she smiled gently at him, even though it seemed completely out of her league to do so. she took a breath, trying to grasp the fact that he was here. this wasn't a dream. danni couldn't help but think that he really grew up. little saunders was now... a rather good looking boy now. she didn't want to think of him that way, but it was true. she had a feeling that he was going through some nostalgic flashbacks too. at least she wasn't alone on that. the sudden chanting rang through her head. sidney and danielle sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g! oh, when was the second grade going to leave her alone? danni knew that when she was in fifth grade, after she had moved, all the pages of her journals started with 'dear saunders, today was a bad day...', 'dear saunders, why did i have to move?', 'dear saunders, you may not know, but i think i really like you...' many of those early pages were doodled with hearts, 'mrs. saunders', and all. she still had those journals, in hope of meeting up with him again and laugh about it, but now, it seemed almost impossibe that this would've happened.
she chuckled along and absorbed the warm tingles that his laugh brought to her body. were those feelings coming back to her? no, they couldn't be. she hardly knew him anymore. she only knew what he had been, what she had been. it wasn't the same as it had once been. she wasn't quite sure about how to act. should she act all tough like how she was in the past? or should she act herself? danni glanced down before turning her gaze back to saunder's face. she wanted this to last forever. she couldn't help feeling glad that it was saunders she experienced everything with. she wasn't sure what he was feeling at the moment, but his brown eyes seemed to say it all. confusion, awkwardness, relief, joy... it was all the things she was feeling too. danni smiled lightly again and shifted her position. "wow," she breathed, watching the small cloud of fog rise from her lips. it was all she said for the moment before asking, "do you wanna sit down?" she was referring to sitting on the hood of her car, but she knew that he would know what she was talking about. there was so much she wanted to say and only the night to say it all.
danni licked her lips, wondering what she should say. they both grew up, really. it had been at least six or seven years since they last saw each other. she wanted the full story of his life. she wanted to know what he felt, how he dealt with his problems. she wanted to know what he was doing her, what had changed. she especially wanted to know how he felt about her, how she felt about him... this was a new chapter of their friendship. danni closed her eyes for a second before flickering her gaze back at him. something about him was different. it wasn't just his looks or the sweet awkwardness, but it was something else. she had a feeling it might have happened after she moved. she decided that she would bring it up later on- once they got over the ice between the two... if that happened. she really did want to know everything about him though. if there was one person she could go back to, know them in and out, give them her full trust, it was absolutely one hundred percent, sidney saunders.
no one was saying anything and it wasn't unexpected. she took a breath before glancing at the bracelets that were on his wrist. something about the middle one sparked a memory in her mind. why did that look so familiar? danni racked through her brain, trying to remember where she had seen it. did he make it? or was it from elementary school? where did it come from? she shook her head as if she was restraining herself from thinking about it anymore. danni licked her lips again, a habit that only showed when she was nervous. he probably would know that though- she did the same when she was younger. "wanna play twenty questions?" she suddenly asked before adding in, "it might get some of the awkwardness away..." leave it to danni to break the silence. tag . saunders

REMEMBER ALL THOSE TIMES WHENwe laughed and cried. i'll always be there for you - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - she smiled when she saw his own smile. he had an incredible smile, which was actually one of the reasons that attracted her to him. she could never keep a straight face around him for long and it felt nice to smile so much around him. he probably wouldn't believe how much cold hearted she ended up being. danni had tried to shut herself away from many of her previous friends. she was trying to take herself out of the family picture too, but in a way, she wasn't that cold as she thought herself to be. she did very much care about her family and her friends. she just hated it when people talked about their family being mean and everything when she had it good. she just wanted to fit in and so trying to hide herself away from nostalgic thoughts were one of those.
he wanted her to start? well, okay. danni took a breath, taking out a candle and some matches out of her bag. well, you never knew when a black out would happen. she came prepared all the time. she lit it up, trying to think of a good questions. technically they had all night to talk about these things, but even then, she was cautious. she quickly lit it and held tightly onto the base of the candle. danni could see the delicate features on saunders' face that was illuminated by the soft glow. she probably knew him a little more than she gave herself credit. she could see that stress had really taken on his years and it was quite worrying on her side. she nodded and bit her tongue before saying, "okay. let's see... tell me- what have i missed over the years? and i want to know everything. not just 'oh you missed nothing really. i haven't changed' simply because i know that you've been through something. you're not very good at hiding things." she didn't mind that she was being too blunt since that was how she had been when she was younger. danni added, "plus, i see it in your eyes." truth showed in eyes all the time. she knew it. how many times had she been caught for lying from when her parents looked in her eyes? it was a cheat, i tell you.
if something really was wrong, danni wanted to know. she wanted to know what she could do to help. saunders had been her best friend and honestly, she had no doubt that he'd always be. unconsciously, her fingers touched her bracelet, the one he had given to her before she moved. she looked him in the eyes, holding a steady gaze. she didn't want him to feel intimidated, but she really did want to know the truth. she'd figure it out whether he wanted to tell her or not. when danni wanted to know something, she'd stop at nothing to know what it was, especially if it was about someone she really cared about. then it was her business. tag . sears
