Everyone looked at Beth. "Wow, she's pretty." Ritchie thought.
"Boy she looks mad." Heidi thought.
"Well is someone going to answer me?" Beth asked impatiently while she stood there with her hands on her hips.
"Um, well you see..." Heidi began, but J cut her off.
"I burnt down your kitchen this weekend and then I tried to get it fixed, but as you can tell a few complications have set in." J explained hoping Beth would buy it.
But Beth had just noticed Ritchie and didn't hear a word J had said. "Hi, I'm Beth." Beth had walked herself right over to Ritchie and introduced herself. Heidi raised her eyebrows and looked at J.
"This could be interesting." She mouthed to him. J nodded his head.
"I'm, I'm..."
"You're Ritchie." Scott gave him.
Ritch smiled appreciatively at Scott. "Yeah, I'm Ritchie."
"It's a pleasure to meet you Ritchie." Beth said suggestively and giggled. Everyone else in the room rolled their eyes.
"Will someone please gag me with a spoon?" Heidi asked as they watched the two flirt.
"Oh shoot! I'm late to pick up Katie." J exclaimed. "Heidi you have a key to my flat so just let yourself in and make yourself at home." J kissed Heidi on the cheek and ran out the door.
"Hey! Where's my kiss?!" Scott exclaimed.
"I'm going to stay with RItchie." Beth announced to Heidi, Scott and Abs.
"um, okay." Heidi said. THings were just getting a little too weird for her liking. Beth then ran into her room to get some things.
"Sorry Heidi, but i'm going to have to let you go." Ritchie came over apologizing. "but i like Beth better. I hope you understand."
"Oh i do." Heidi said very excited on the inside. Finally RItchie was going to be out of her hair. "But can we still be friends?"
"Sure and maybe you'll find a nice lad you can be with." Ritchie acted like he was giving her the worst news in the world by "breaking up" with her.
"Ritchie, I'm ready." Beth said coming out of her room with like seven suitcases (one for each day of the week).
"Alright, let's go. Bye everyone." The two said as they left the flat.
"Finally they're gone." Heidi exclaimed as she shut the door behind them.
"Ahh, Heidi, aren't you sad? You dont' have Ritch anymore to bother you." Abs said as the three went into her room to pack up some stuff for Heidi at J's.
"I want to cry my eyes out." Heidi walked into her closet and pulled a suitcase down off the shelf. "So how would you guys feel about a game of truth or dare?"
