( ( ( chapter 12 ) ) )
Shane’s phone was blowing up from all the texts he was getting that Savannah was hooking up with another guy. He tried calling Savannah but she wouldn’t answer. He tried Ava next but to no avail. How could she do this to him? After the way she’d been acting all day and even last night. Shane knew Savannah wasn’t that drunk when she hooked up with him.
Was this still part of her game with Ava? To find out if Shane was for real or not? He’d already proved to Savannah that he was being honest when he said he liked her, so why was she still playing this game? If Shane wanted to, he could be hooking up with other girls right at this moment, but he chose not to because of Savannah. So why wasn’t she doing that for him?
He was so angry that it was his dad’s weekend. If it was his mom’s, he’d be at that party right now and Savannah wouldn’t be doing that. But of course Heather had to rat him out to his dad, and now Shane is basically on house arrest, which his father tried to call ‘family time.’ More like his father at work, Corinne at a friend’s house, Heather in the living room watching TV and eating not only for herself but the baby she was pregnant with, and Shane in his room.
But something was different this time. Everyone was home and Shane couldn’t figure out why. For a kid in all honor’s classes, it bothered him that he was so confused about everything right now and couldn’t figure anything out. He felt stupid.
“Shane,” Mr. Palmer knocked on his door.
“What?” Shane asked, not looking up from his phone screen. He was trying to check Twitter to see if anyone had posted anything. He thought he found what he was looking for when his father snatched the phone from his hand.
“You need to come downstairs,” he said. “Now.”
“Why? I haven’t done anything wrong,” Shane said, hoping Corinne didn’t tell him that Savannah had slept over last night.
“I know you haven’t. We have some news for you,” he said.
“Oh. Perfect.”
“Knock off the attitude,” he said, walking back downstairs with Shane’s phone.
“Dad, I need that,” Shane said.
“You’ll get it back after Heather and I talk to you. Now we’ve already broke the news to Corinne and she took it very well. We’re hoping you will too,” he said nervously, knowing Shane probably wouldn’t.
Shane braced himself for what he was about to hear. He already endured finding out Heather was pregnant and that his father was marrying her once the baby was born. The way his father proposed it, he knew it would be bad. He was just hoping it wasn’t worse than his first two announcements.
Shane sat down on the leather couch opposite of Heather and his dad. Heather’s long blonde hair, makeup clouded blue eyes, thin pierced nose by a small diamond stud, perfectly shaped eyebrows, and acrylic nails made her seem like she came straight off of Jersey Shore. Now that her body wasn’t hot enough to work at Hooter’s anymore because of her pregnant belly, she was being supported by Mr. Palmer. Shane just thought she was a gold digging leech.
“Shane,” Heather smiled, trying to prepare herself for the blowup Shane was about to have. She had a way of speaking that made everything sound like she was asking a question. “So as you know, I’m six months along now and we’ve been preparing the baby’s room for his or her arrival and we’re all super excited.”
“Okay,” Shane said, not understanding why they were talking to him.
“Well, as it turns out, it’s not just one baby…two months ago, we found out we’re having twins,” she tried to smile.

( ( ( chapter 14 ) ) )
By the time Monday morning strolled around everyone had heard of what happened at the party. Shane overheard people talking about it and that made him feel even worse. Shane sat at his lab table in first period biology but Savannah wasn’t there yet. There were three minutes until the bell rang which would start the school day, and she was usually here way earlier. Shane wondered where she was but didn’t know why. It’s not like he was going to talk to her.
With five seconds to spare, Savannah slipped into the classroom and into her seat. “Hey,” she smiled at him. He ignored her. Savannah took her phone out and texted to Ava under the table.
Savannah: I knew this would happen. He’s not talking to me. He found out and now he hates me.
Ava: Calm down, maybe he’s just in a bad mood?
Savannah: He’s talking to Faye and Jade and all these other people around me. He ignored me when I tried saying hi
Ava: Maybe he didn’t hear you! I’m sure he’s not mad, Sav.
But after the period ended he didn’t try to walk her to her next class. He ignored her in math and in English as well. Things were just as they were before Shane confessed that he liked Savannah, only this was worse. At least when he pretended to hate her he acknowledged her. Now he was acting like she didn’t even exist.
After the bell rang dismissing the English class and ending the day, Savannah tried to get Shane’s attention as he booked it from the classroom. He knew she wanted to talk but he didn’t know what to say to her. If he told her he was upset for getting with Hunter, all she’d say was that they aren’t together, or worse, she’d make a comment that he cheated on her last year with Ava.
Savannah called his name but he kept on walking. She texted him that she wanted to talk but he ignored it. She was getting tired of him being so childish about things like this. After all the pain he’s put her through, what she had done was nothing.
Savannah walked down the hallway to update Mr. Ian on how the tutoring sessions with Ava were going. She checked Twitter as she walked down the hall but looked up from her phone long enough to see a 6’4 freshman in a practice jersey walking out of the locker room. He had seen her too, and it was too late to pretend he didn’t.
“Shane, I’m sorry,” Savannah walked straight up to him.
“It’s alright,” he walked right passed her.
“No, Shane, it’s not,” she said, grabbing his wrist. “Are you mad at me?”
“Why would I be mad?”
“Because I hooked up with Hunter,” she said.
“Oh good, so you know that that was wrong,” he said. “Yet you still did it anyway.”
“Shane, I didn’t think it would be a problem!”
“Why would you think I’d be okay with that??”
“Because-”
“Because you know how much I care about you and you basically led me on?” he answered for her.
“Because we’re just friends!”

( ( ( chapter 1 ) ) )
Savannah Grant looked up at Shane Palmer who had just asked her to be his girlfriend and gently held both of his hands, taking a step closer. She thought all she wanted this whole time was this exact moment, but something didn’t feel right. Her bracelets that covered the untold tragedies branding her wrists slid down. She aligned them back in place and remembered why they were there.
She looked to the left and saw her peers from school looking out the windows to see what was going on. She saw the eagerness all over their faces and remembered how just a week ago before they knew Shane liked her, they were ruthless to her, constantly making ‘jokes’ for the sole purpose of tearing her down. These people were not her friends.
She looked back up at Shane, who was clearly nervous that she still hadn’t answered yet. He looked so different for some reason. It wasn’t his chin strap that made him look different or his defined jaw line. His hazel eyes stared at her the same way they did last year when all of this started. He was just so different. They were both so different.
She smiled sadly and dropped his hands, and with tears in her eyes, shook her head no. The kids in the house were shocked that she turned him down, especially Savannah’s best friend, Ava Rivers. All of their hard work- for nothing.
Savannah didn’t know where to go. The party was basically over now even though it was relatively early. If she went back inside everything would just be awkward.
WOOOOOOOOOOOP!!
Red and blue lights came flashing down the street.
“Sh..t! Go!” kids filed out of the house. Savannah had already had five shots- she was clearly drunk and couldn’t run. Shane saw this and went with his first instincts. He picked her up and ran with her the opposite direction that everyone else was heading, running straight passed the cops.
“Are you crazy??” Savannah asked.
“It takes too long for them to turn around. They’re going to keep going straight after the kids who ran towards the woods,” Shane explained.
“Where are we even going?” Savannah asked.
“I’m taking you home,” Shane said. “Don’t worry, you’re safe with me.”
“I can’t go home like this! I was supposed to sleep over Ava’s house.”
“You can sleep over my house if you want,” Shane said, putting Savannah down. They’d gotten far enough from the house that they could be sure the cops wouldn’t find them. They’d reached the center of town and sat down at a table outside of a Starbucks.
“Thanks but I can’t do that,” Savannah said.
“Why not? My mom will be totally fine with it,” Shane said.
“Shane, I don’t want you getting the wrong idea-”
“Savannah, you don’t want to be my girlfriend, I get it. I can take rejection. Let me just try to do something nice for you to make up for everything. It’s honestly the least I could do,” he said.
“Why would you even want to? You don’t have to do anything for me.”
“Because I love you,” he admitted.
Note: hiiiiiiii so I hope you like the first chapter of the third and final story of the Second Best series.
Comment and tell me what you think :) Oh! Also, listen to this song and tell me this does not describe Shane's feelings towards Savannah perfectly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeYGT-4RX1I

( ( ( chapter 15 ) ) )
“Ohhhh sh..t!!!” Aaron Mason, Hunter Sullivan and Eli Thompson laughed as they walked out of the locker room and heard parts of Shane and Savannah’s conversation. “Palmer, she totally just friend zoned you!” Aaron laughed.
Shane shook his head at Savannah and tried to turn around to keep walking but she stopped him again. “Shane, I didn’t friend zone you! You even told me we were just friends,” she said.
“Let’s just talk about this later,” Shane said.
“No, no, don’t worry. Talk about it now,” Eli said. “We were leaving anyway.”
Shane rolled his eyes, annoyed. He wanted to talk about it later because he didn’t know how to respond. He knew he did tell her that, but he didn’t mean he had no feelings for her. The guys had left and Savannah was waiting on a response.
“You’re right, it’s all my fault. When I said we were just friends, I meant that we were really close and you could be comfortable around me and hook up with me and it…”
“Not mean anything?” Savannah finished for him, noticing he realized he was wrong.
“I mean, I guess for you it wouldn’t mean anything. But for me it does, just because I like you so much. But I know you don’t feel the same so I guess I can’t get angry if you’re getting with other guys,” he said. “I’m sorry.”
“No it’s not that it doesn’t mean anything, it does. I like you too but no offense, I don’t trust you. That’s why I thought this ‘just friends’ thing would work. Because I could hook up with you and pretend that everything is okay like it was last year but at the same time I could get with other guys and just have fun,” she said. “I wasn’t trying to hurt you.”
“I know you weren’t. I’m sorry I haven’t given you a reason to trust me again, but if what you said works for you then I respect that. I can’t tell you what you can do and if that makes you happy then I’m alright with it,” he lied.
“Really? Thank you for understanding,” she gave him a hug. Shane could see from behind her Tyler Gates and Blake Matthews coming out of the locker room. They noticed him and Tyler pelvic thrusted as Blake made the sign for ‘get it in.’
Shane ignored them and pulled up from the hug. “So you admit it though, you do kind of like me.”
She laughed and looked down embarrassed, “I hate you.”
“No you don’t,” he kissed her.
“Get it Shane!” Blake ruined the moment.

( ( ( chapter 29 ) ) )
“It’s a boy and girl?” Shane asked excitedly. Shane was surprised by his own reaction. He’d never cared enough to know the gender of the babies. But now that they’re finally here, he felt completely different.
Savannah followed him into the room where Heather was holding a little baby boy in a blue blanket in her left arm and a little baby girl in a pink blanket in the other.
“What are their names?” Shane asked.
“We’ve decided your brother’s name is Grayson Chase, but we haven’t picked out a name for your sister yet,” Heather said. “We figured we’d let you name her.”
“I can name her?” Shane asked, shocked.
“But you have to make sure it sounds good with her middle name,” Heather said.
“What’s her middle name?”
“Savannah,” Heather smiled.
“What?” Savannah asked excitedly. “You named her after me??”
“You’re the reason I didn’t have her in the living room!” Heather laughed. “It’s because of you that professional doctors could actually deliver her in a safe and healthy way and I owe it to you that both of my babies were born like that. So thank you.”
“What are you going to name her?” Savannah asked Shane eagerly.
“Well, I’ve always liked the name Jordan for a girl,” he said.
“Aww! Jordan Savannah! That’s so pretty, I love that! Don’t you, honey?” Heather asked Mr. Palmer.
Shane looked at his father nervously, wondering if he would be okay with her name. After a moment Mr. Palmer smiled and said, “That’s a beautiful name.”
Shane held his brother and sister and felt an immediate connection to both to both of them. He couldn’t wait to teach Grayson how to play football, play video games and pick up girls. And he couldn’t wait to protect Jordan the same way he did with Corinne, even though she’d hate it, and beat up all the guys who’d make her cry. He knew of course that at first it would be tough with two newborns in the house, but he couldn’t believe that for the longest time he didn’t want these kids.
Shane held Jordan and Savannah held Grayson as Mr. Palmer took a picture for them. Shane put it on Instagram, getting over 200 likes. Mr. Palmer had really took a liking to Savannah, just as Heather had. Shane was so afraid they would hate her just because they knew he liked her, but he was pleasantly surprised when they invited her to the wedding that was six months away in July.
But Shane’s happy moment was ruined within seconds with a text from Ava: What the f..ck are you doing with her? You said you would never talk to her again. You’re so full of sh..t.

( ( ( chapter 11 ) ) )
The clink of Ava’s and Savannah’s shot glasses being toasted rang throughout the ears of everyone in the party. That, and the sound of 40 or 50 teenagers going wild in Scarlett’s house, downing beer after beer, gulping shot after shot, passing joint after joint.
Ava and Savannah promised each other they’d drink the same amount tonight- four shots just to get tipsy. Ava looked around the crowded basement, trying to find someone.
“I think Ryan’s playing pong right now with the soccer team,” Savannah told her. “He should probably be done soon.”
“Forget Ryan,” Ava laughed. “I’m looking for a guy for you! I’m trying to see who’s tall enough.”
Savannah knew Ava would be able to help her hook up with a really hot, popular guy because she had connections to everyone. She just wasn’t sure how Shane would take it. But if one thing was obvious, it was that he had to know they were just friends.
“Oh my God, got him!” Ava squealed. “Hunter Sullivan!”
“Stop,” Savannah’s jaw dropped. “You could get him to hook up with me?”
“Yes! We were friends when I went out with Blake and he’d always flirt with me and I’d just tease him because I could. He’s such a sweetheart,” Ava said.
“What are you going to say?” Savannah asked.
“Just come with me. If he turns you down, we’ll pretend we were drunk and didn’t know what we were doing,” Ava said. Savannah laughed and followed her over to the 6’3” muscular linebacker with dark curly hair and flirty green eyes.
“Hunter, hey!” Ava walked over to him, placing her small, delicate hand on the junior’s muscular arm.
“Hey! What’s good?” he asked and then redirected his attention to Savannah. “Savannah,” he nodded his head approvingly.
“You having a good time?” Ava flirted, taking the beer from his hand and taking a sip.
“Yeah, I’m having a great time,” he smiled and took his drink back. “Are you?”
“Yeah, but it would be better if I could find Ryan,” Ava laughed.
“Oh yeah, I heard you guys are hooking up now,” he said.
“From who? I’ve hooked up with him once!” Ava laughed at how fast rumors got spread about her. “But I mean, I just wish my best friend could be hooking up with someone, you know?”
“What about Palmer?” Hunter asked Savannah.
“No,” Savannah smiled. “He’s my best friend.”
“But see, Savannah’s really tall so I’m trying to find her a taller guy and you know who I was thinking?” Ava raised both eyebrows and smiled softly with her lips slightly pursed.
“I mean, I’m definitely down,” Hunter laughed. He took Savannah by the hand and started walking with her. Savannah turned over her shoulder and smiled to her friend, so unaware of the mess she’d just gotten herself into that would last for months.
