Jen sauntered into the kitchen, rubbing her eyes. Tamara was seated there already, and Daphne was just getting to leave, packing an apple and a waterbottle in her backpack.
"Hi Jen, bye Jen. I�m off to work" she told her happily and embraced her friend. "You look horrible. Billy wants to talk to you, by the way. Take care."
Daphne left, and was immediately as she left the house replaced by Dee.
"Hi, all" she exclaimed happily.
Tam and Jen both groaned and rolled their eyes. "Did you get up from your love-nest this early?" Tam asked sarcastically.
"Don�t be annoying. I never complained when you were all mushy and I strongly resent to it that I am half as mushy as you were."
"You did nothing other than complain" Tam replied opening her eyes wide.
"Hey, Tam" Jenny asked while slapping her friends� tigh hurtfully, "Did Daphne just say Billy wanted to see me?"
"He wanted to TALK to ya, love. That she said."
"Why would he want.." Dee started, but Jenny had left the kitchen already to do herself up. Both girls left behind, shook their heads wisely�
Billy hummed some undefined Scottish song to himself while he shaved (Sounds pretty dangerous to me, but anyway) when suddenly Dom walked into the bathroom. The Scot almost shread something off he shouldn�t have and he turned around angry.
"Can�t you knock? You don�t just walk into a bathroom like that! I could have been undressed, too."
"Hmm. So? Is that such an unpleasant sight? Jenny is here to see you. Shall I tell her you�re not there, or in bath or ill?"
Billy frowned. "Neither. I wanted to talk to her."
Dom gave him a confused look. "Why on earth would you want that as you�ve tried to stay away from her as much as possible?"
"Well, it�s like this.." Billy decided not to bother with shaving anymore, but just washed the shaving cream off and then dried his face. "I think to only way to get her off my back, is to hook her up with another guy."
"Who?"
Billy grinned evilly. "That�s the best part yet. Atti."
Dom grinned broadly at that too. "Friend, I like your way of thinking" he said.
They both laughed and in good humour they walked to the living room where Jen was waiting.
"Hi!" she exclaimed and flashed one of THOSE smiles. The Scot smiled back, after all, he wouldn�t have to put up with that for long anymore.
"C�mon, Jenny, let�s go for a walk" he replied while grabbing her arm. The two of them walked outside, watched by Dom.
"So, why I wanted to speak to you, Jenny" Billy started, trying to look past the huge smile she had on her lips "Erm�I guess you heard what happened to us while we were out last week."
"Yeah.. you saved the whole lot. Cool."
"Well I did in fact�no that�s not what I meant, Jenny. I mean I guess you heard Atti kissed this guy but was rejected. And, em, he feels so bad now, really. He�s, er, hurt, you know. So I thought he needed some consoling lady companionship, such as yourself."
"Do you think it�ll help him?" Jenny asked. She was really sweet and didn�t like people being hurt.
"Oh yes. Would you do that?"
"Sure. I�ll be glad to help."
On Billy�s lips, an evil smirk started to form�
* that night *
The girls and lads had gathered in Lij�s house that night for some chatting. But after dinner they had settled behind the telly and were now watching Buffy. Daphne and Atti had just discovered their common interest in Spike and were swooning over him, while Orli wasn�t looking that happy over it. Jenny tried to start a conversation of with Atti, but it wasn�t really coming along as he was too busy with Spike.
"I�m really glad you like him too, Atti" Daphne told him. "The girls always say I�m mad for fancying him."
"Well you do fancy Orlando too" Atti replied with a grin.
"Hey!" Orli exclaimed hurt until Daphne softly kissed his cheek.
"Eh-ew!" Tamara yelled at them.
"You know what�s so weird?" Elijah asked his girlfriend meanwhile, as the others turned their attention back to the telly. "Vampires always bite someone off the opposite sex. I�ve never seen a male vampire suck a man."
"What??!!" 9 voices yelled at his weird comment. Nine?
Everyone in the room turned his/her attention to the door where a familiar figure had appeared.
"Sean!" Elijah immediately jumped up and ran over to embrace his mate. "What are you doing here? Why didn�t you at least ring the doorbell?"
"The door was open. But to more serious matters, what on earth were you talking about when I came in? In what kind of madhouse have I ended up this time?"
Elijah looked at him weirdly. "I didn�t say a thing" he answered.
"You said you had never seen "a male vampire suck a man.""
"Oh but I didn�t mean that�" Lij hastily started when he saw his mistake, but it was too late and the whole room laughed at him. When they were done at that (it took some time, alright) Dee approached Sean. "Hi, I�m Dee" she introduced herself. "Since shortly part of the madhouse."
Sean laughed at that and shook her hand. "So you�re the lady Elijah fell for, right? Don�t blame him."
Dee blushed at that and Lij took her hand. "She sure is, Sean" he replied.
The other girls stepped forward too to introduce themselves and Sean told Daphne he pitied her for having to put up with Orli, at which she laughed but he sulked. And that was how they were joined by another crazyman.
The morning after�well rather it was afternoon.
Daphne sat reading the newspaper in the kitchen when suddenly two hands covered her eyes, a sexy voice whispered "Guess who" in her ear and someone kissed her neck.
"Dominic?" she asked with an evil grin.
Orlando stepped away from her. "That�s just so not funny" he accused her hurt and crossed his arms. Daphne folded the newspaper carefully before she got up and put her hands up his shoulders. She softly kissed his unwilling lips.
"Just kidding, baby. I couldn�t resist."
"Well you�re really mean lately."
"Aw, no, it�s just the sarcasm disease. I�m sorry. Shall I make it up to you?" she asked, slipping her hand under his shirt.
"Well�" he replied and finally put his arms around her waist to snog her passionately, umtil someone rudely disturbed them.
"Oh god, can�t go nowhere without running into a happy couple." It was Jenny. As the two embarassed let go of eachother, the blonde rambled on. "What�s this anyway, Daphne? You don�t like public affection at all. You�ve never been like this with any guy."
Daphne blushed furiously and Orlando gave her an amused look, and was about to say something when the kitchen was invaded by five other lads.
"Orlando, you were going to get the girls, not snog your girlfriend!" Sean waved his finger under his younger friend�s nose.
"I was just about to" Orli protested.
"Get us?" Daphne asked curiously.
"Yeah, we�re going to the beach, so hurry up!"
Needless to say it was quite hard to squeeze ten people in three cars with surfboards and the lot. After half an hour everyone was satisfied with the space they had got and they drove off. Fifteen minutes after arrival, they had scared off all other visitors to the beach and had a whole piece to themselves. The girls settled on the beach, as the lads prepared themselves to go surfing.
"Sure you don�t want to try?" Orli asked Daphne, securing his wetsuit.
"Absolutely sure. I am sure it�s very bad for my health."
"You mean you�d get tired" Tamara interfered.
"No I didn�t mean that. I have a legal excuse because I officially have a sunallergy. You are making excuses."
"Don�t argue, children" Dee warned the two, who threw her a look of disgust.
"You feel really parental too?" Sean asked the girl grinning, and she nodded.
"Yeah, really. They argue all the time."
"Oh and you so do not get into trouble" Daphne complained. "I say two weeks ago, I say LAPD and that�s all I am saying."
Both Atti and Sean, uninformed, gave Dee a weird look, and she flashed a smile.
"Can we just go?" Lij interrupted glancing at Daphne angry and she stuck her tongue out to him, but smiled.
"Don�t worry, I still love ya" she whispered to him softly as he passed her by. "I wouldn�t have told."
Lij raised his eyebrows. "Now I know why you date Orli. You�re both extremely weird."
With that, he and the other lads went off to do some active surfing stuff, and the girls were left to themselves to do some lazy beach stuff�
