"So, Rach, do you want to eat something here? Or would you rather go somewhere else?"
"Here is fine."
While they were deciding what to eat, a teenage girl came bounding over to them.
"Oh my gosh! It's Taylor Hanson!" she squealed.
Taylor winced. He was very glad he had 'switched off' his empathic ability. Well, to everyone except Rachel of course.
"Umm, hi." Taylor said, attempting to get himself and Rachel away.
"Tay-Tay, can I have your autograph?" the girl continued.
Then Taylor spotted something. It was Zac and he was sitting at a table, looking in their direction and cracking up laughing. Taylor was puzzled.
"Umm, yeah sure." He said.
Slowly, Taylor opened up his empathic ability. First he focused on Zac… yes he could… he could feel definite amusement. Obviously he thought what was happening was pretty hilarious. However, Taylor couldn't get anything more than that.
The girl gave him a notebook and a pen.
"What's your name?" Taylor asked, hoping a mob wouldn't start.
Then Taylor started getting suspicious. He focused his empathy on the girl.
"Annie."
Taylor nodded and started writing: 'I hope Rick decides to try and pick you up Ike'. Then he handed the napkin back, trying to hide his smile.
"C'mon Rach." He said.
And so he and Rachel started leaving. Then Taylor heard Isaac laughing in his head.
*Ok, ok caught!* he laughed *And Taylor? It's too late. He already has tried.*
*Sucked in. What happened?*
*I told him I was only interesting in dating chicks.*
Taylor snickered (telepathically of course).
*Yeah, then he started saying he could convert me. I said, 'I seriously hope not'.*
*I take it Zac's just here to watch?*
*Yeah… I was a little worried he'd be bored, but he seems to be amused, wouldn't you say?*
*Heh yeah. Talk to ya later dude*
*See ya*
On that Taylor blocked any further messages from Isaac, so he could enjoy the rest of the day with his girlfriend in peace.
