Ch10: An Intelligent Sexy Hot Piece of Meat, For Me? Yes Please!
"That was a good date," Alex chuckles opening the door for me and I nod awkwardly.
"Yeah," I smile. "It was the best-es."
Best-es?
Oh man, someone just eat me now.
"Okay," he laughs. "I'll see you tomorrow."
"Goodnight," I run up the stairs and quickly into my room.
That was just horrifying. Worst date of my life.
So Alex took me to go get dinner at some restaurant called Betsy's which was actually nice.
Then we grabbed some yogurt at a place called Yogurtland which was also nice.
The only problem, a big problem, was that I couldn't even look at him without getting mad at the fact that he called me a slut.
I know, I know, I said we were okay, but I can't just forget it. Or can I?
No.
I can't.
I can't forget because all that goes through my mind is, maybe they're right?
I did make a bet with three guys and if I lose then I have to have sex with one of them.
Not one guy, but three!
I mean, what type of person does that make me?
Not just that, but I am allowing myself to go on dates with all of them.
Ugh, this is just terrible.
I am terrible.
How did my life get so freaking complicated?
Oh right, the moment Lilo died.
Lilo. Now that I remember her birthday's tomorrow.
That's just fun-fucken-tastic!
I should just go to bed.
Sleeping always seems to make things better.

"Kitten," I hear a voice.
A cat?
I'm dreaming with cats.
"Kitten," I hear the voice again and I open my eyes. As soon as I see the dark figure above me my entire body goes into defense mode. I kick my legs out and throw the stranger across the room.
"Elliana it's me," the voice yells. "It's Vinny."
Vinny?
Kitten.
Oh, that makes sense.
"What are you doing in my room?" I ask getting off my bed.
"I just got home," he explains "and I wanted to ask what is our focus for the research project? "
"You just got home?" I ask looking towards my alarm clock.
1:30 A.M
"Where were you?" I ask shocked.
"What's the focus of our project?" He rolls his eyes.
Why do they refuse to tell me why he's out so late?
"I don't know," I yawn. "We just need an important historical event to present to the class with five educational sources."
"What if we focus on World War 1?" He asks and I shake my head. "Everyone is doing the World Wars."
"War of 1812?" He questions.
Huh, that's not a bad idea.
"Sure," I nod. "We can do the War of 1812."
"Okay," he nods. "I'll find the five educational sources and you put everything in the powerpoint."
"Sounds good," I lay down feeling exhausted.
"Make sure to add cool pictures," he says "and fun slide transitions."
Cool pictures. Fun slide transitions. Got it.
"Let me sleep," I groan throwing the covers over myself.
"Are you, Josh, and Alex okay?" He asks out of the blue.
Ugh, I don't want to talk about it.
I just keep my eyes closed and pretend to already be asleep.
"Yes we are hot Vinny," he mimics my voice making it extremely high pitched.
"I don't talk like that," I open my eyes, an amused smile on my face.
I've never seen Vincent act so childish and goofy.
"By the way Vincent," he continues. "I think you're the sexiest man on the earth."
"I would never say that," I laugh. "You're so full of yourself."
"Goodnight," he answers and even though it's dark in the room I can make out a small smile on his face.
"Goodnight," I say as he walks out the room and I know that I'm not going to be able to sleep.
Curse you devil boy!

"Mom, can we talk?" I ask placing the phone close to my ear.
"Elliana I'm really busy," she answers and I hear rough movements in the background almost like things are being thrown.
"Did you forget what the day it is?" I ask frustrated "because you're sure acting like it."
"How dare you," she exclaims. "Of course I know what day it is Elliana. How could I forget?...I'm just busy right now."
"You're always busy," I roll my eyes.
"Elliana my life can't stop," she speaks loudly. "Lilo wouldn't want that."
"Stop acting like you know what Lilo would want," I growl. "You don't. You never did because you never listen. You always talk and talk, but not once did you ever stop and actually listen to anything she said. "
"I am done talking with you," she hangs up and I throw my phone at my bed in frustration.
Ugh, how can she be so busy that she won't even take the time to talk to me?
"Shorty," a voice yells and I groan.
"What?" I yell back before grabbing my backpack and running down stairs.
"Pipper's here," he replies pointing his head towards the kitchen and I nod.
I had completely forgotten about the stupid support group.
"Okay," I walk into the kitchen and spot Pipper leaning against one of the cabinets.
"Hey," he grins and I acknowledge him with a nod.
"Hi," I grab a coffee mug and serve myself some coffee.
"What's wrong?" He asks moving closer towards me.
"It's Lilo's birthday is today," I reply while grabbing the creamer and pouring it into my cup.
"Oh," he nods. "I'm so sorry."
"Thanks," I sip my coffee trying my hardest to stop tears from coming. "We should go."
"Kitten," Vincent walks in holding a folder in his hand.
"What's up?" I ask grabbing my keys and shoving them in my pocket looking directly at the ground.
I don't want him to see me upset.
"I have two good sources," he hands me the folder. "I printed them out so we can ask Edwards to double check them."
"Sounds good," I open my backpack and shove the folder inside.
"You good?" he whispers grabbing my arm.
Not really.
"Yeah," I clear my throat. "I have to go."
***
"We have these two sources," I hand them to Ms.Edwards and she opens them quickly scanning through them.
"They're really good Ms.Bair," she grins. "Good job finding these."
"Actually," Vincent walks towards us, standing directly next to me. "I found them."
"Right," Ms. Edwards nods, not believing him.
"I'm not just a hot piece of meat Ms.Edwards," he smirks. "I'm an intelligent sexy hot piece of meat."
Why does he have to be so full himself?
"So our sources are good?" I ask again and she nods glaring at Vincent.
"Yes," she says "just find three more."
"Will do," I reply handing the folder back to Vincent.
"Why are you in such a twist?" He asks making his way with me towards my seat.
"I'm not," I shake my head. "I just had a bad nights sleep that's all."
"Is it Pipper?" He stops me and I look at him confused.
"I am known for stopping sleep," Pipper replies walking past us "but I'm afraid I have nothing to do with this."
Innuendo?
"Elliana?" Vincnet questions glaring at Pipper.
"No," I pull my arm free. "Pipper has nothing to do with it. I just didn't sleep well."
"Whatever," he turns and walks towards his seat. I look around the classroom and notice that everyone is looking at me.
What?
"Why is everyone looking at me?" I whisper at Taylor.
"Cause Vincent cares," she grins sheepishly and I roll my eyes.
"Yeah," I say "he cares about himself."

"Elliana," Mike waves and I smile at him.
"How was the support group?" He asks leaning against my locker.
"It was fine," I shrug. "Why didn't you go?"
"I woke up late," he answers, a worried look on his face. "You okay?"
"Tough day," I open my locker.
"Lilo?" He asks and I frown.
"I didn't mean to intrude," he apologizes and I shake my head.
"It's fine," I answer. "It is Lilo. Today's her birthday."
"That's what has you upset," he speaks taking a deep breath. "It must be tough."
"Yeah," I tell him. "it is tough and sometimes it's too much for me to deal with alone."
And my parents seem to be trying really hard to leave me alone.
"How old was she?" Mike asks and I swallow harshly.
"She was supposed to turn nineteen today," I clear my throat, tears threatening to fall, but I push them back.
"I'm so sorry," Mike pats my shoulder which only makes me feel worse.
"I hate that she makes me upset," I say. "Lilo was always so happy."
"Who's Lilo?" the dreaded voice questions and I turn around to see four people.
The three devil boys and no one other than Van-fucken-essa
A/N: I am back after a really long time so let me just apologize for my long absence. School has just been sooooo time consuming and sometimes I wish I could dedicate more time to this, but with work as well it gets kind of tough.
So I hope you all liked the chapter and this time for real...
I'll update soon.
QOTC: Do you guys like Mike?
