Chapter 1: The First Kiss
Mike sighed as he slunk away from the cabin.
"I can't keep this up forever! Zoey is going to find out eventually…" Mike sighed again and pulled his hand through his dark hair. "Maybe a quick swim will clear my head. Chester and Svetlana are so irritating…they get in the way of everything!" Mike kicked a pebble into the stream as his face cringed into a scowl. Relaxing his arms, he slowly slipped his shirt over his head and jumped into the stream. Taking a deep relaxing breath, Mike sank down into the calm cool waters.
Suddenly, Mike gasped for breath and held his head in his hands. His hair suddenly slicked back and his face was now a promiscuous, mischievous smirk. He rose up from under the water and swished his hair back and forth sending water droplets flying everywhere.
"Alright! Vito is back in town loosa's!" He laughed evilly. Slowly walking out of the stream, Vito pulled up his drenched soggy jeans and collapsed onto a rock to get some sun. "Time to keep up my hot tan, for da ladies." Vito slipped on some shining aviators and settled down for a nap on the wide flat rock.
About 15 minutes later, Vito opened his left eye as he heard rustling in the bushes. He shut his left eye again and sighed in annoyance.
"Look pal, if you think you are gonna sneak up on a tough guy like the Vito you's got anotha thing comin'!" Vito relaxed and attempted to continue his nap.
"Mike? Is zhat you?" Rosie stepped out of the bush and looked quizzically at Vito. Her red highlighted hair bounced in the bright sun. She didn't know Mike very well yet, she actually just came to catch a tan and some private time.
"Ey! Get the name right toots, its Vito." Vito reached his buff arms up behind his head still not opening his eyes.
"Oh…" Rosie was pretty sure his name was Mike, but she played along. "Uh…zhen Monsieur Vito may I ask what you are doing 'ere?" She tried to keep her dark brown eyes off his bare torso, but her efforts were a complete failure.
"I'm just catching a few rays, but dat would be none-o-your business if you know what I'm sayin'." Vito still wouldn't look at her, he simply lowered his eyebrows in annoyance at Rosie disrupting his nap. "Who are you anyways and why you all up in my business eh?"
"Je'mappelle Rosie Lu."
"Ja-ma-whatta?"
"Ug…my name is Rosie Lu." Rosie rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"Rosie who?" Vito still wasn't paying attention. Rosie bit her lip in anger. She stomped over to Vito and ripped off his sunglasses. He instantly opened his eyes and sat up straight. Rosie jumped back just in time before he hit her face; now their noses were just a few inches apart. Vito's eyes widened. His gelled back hair bounced as he gasped in admiration. "Woah Baby…"
"Rosie Lu…short for Rosanne Louise." Rosie was blushing almost as red as her highlights as she smiled at the shirtless boy. "Enchante Monsieur Vito." She reached out her hand delicately, inviting him to kiss her soft pink gloves. Vito's eyes never left hers as he leaned in deviously.
"The pleasure is all mine, hot stuff." He grasped her hand and pulled it so it rested on top of his bicep while his other arm slunk around her hips. He raised his eyebrows at her and leaned in closer with a gleaming smile plastered on his face. Rosie smiled flirtatiously and licked her teeth invitingly while growling like a cat.
Pouncing on his chance, Vito's eyes gleamed as he attacked. Vito suddenly pushed his lips into Rosie's forcefully while closing his eyes dreamily. Rosie was shocked at first, but her romantic nature kicked in and she returned his affection full force. Vito's tongue gently caressed Rosie's bottom lip as she nibbled on his top lip. With movement as fluid as a snake, Vito's arm climbed up Rosie's shirt as their make out session intensified. Rosie nuzzled up to his bare chest with a small flirty giggle of delight. She traced his pecks with her soft gloved fingers. Finally, Vito was the one who broke away to take a deep breath. Their eyes never left each other.
"Man! You're good, toots." Vito smiled down at the smirking Rosie. He tilted her chin up closer to him with his index finger. His breath felt hot and steamy on Rosie's tingling cheeks. "Rosie. Rosie Lu." Vito seemed to roll the name around on his tongue and taste it's flavor. "That's the sexiest name I've ever heard." Rosie teasingly lowered her chin and nibbled on Vito's outstretched finger.
"You aren't too bad yourself, Monsieur Vito." She mumbled throwing him a quick flirty wink and batting her long eyelashes. Just as Vito was about to jump in for round two, he leaned away from Rosie and held his head in his hands.
"Ah, c'mon man. Not right now!" He mumbled angrily while squeezing his eyes shut.
"Vito? Vito are you ok?" Rosie gently rested her hand on his shoulder with concern flooding her wide doe eyes. Vito shot her a painful smile.
"I'll have to snooze-ya later, toots!" Vito gasped for air and suddenly his hair stuck straight up and his devious smirk had vanished. It was now replaced by a blank stare and wide innocent eyes.
"Mike?!" Rosie stared at him in disbelief. "What happened to Vito?"
"Rosie?" Mike rubbed his head in confusion. Suddenly, his face got cherry red as he realized that Rosie's arms were still curled around his naked torso. "Wh-what are you d-doing…Rosie?" Mike raised his arms in a panic and stared down at Rosie in terror.
"Wh-what?" Rosie quickly jumped to her feet and took 4 big steps away from Mike, her face hot with embarrassment. "Y-you uh….you looked like you needed a hug…" She smiled sheepishly at him and giggled nervously.
"A hug?" Mike slowly looked behind him and around the rock. "Hey…where's my shirt?"
*Fizz Confessional*
"I zhink I understand what is going on here…" Rosie tapped her chin with a confused look on her face. "Vito and Mike must share zhe same body! I read about zhis once in an American fiction novel! It's almost like zhere are two Mikes…or is it two Vitos? Eizher way, it is going to be difficult to tell Mike zhat Vito and I…" Rosie stared out the window dreamily. "Zhat Vito and I…" Rosie suddenly snapped her attention back to the camera. Her eyebrows narrowed into a glare. "Ey! You stupid American's have no right to judge our love!" She shoved her hand into the camera and the screen fizzes to black.
*Fizzzzz Another confessional*
"How did Rosie know about Vito? Did he show up at the stream? Oh I hope he didn't say anything weird to Rosie." Mike stared down at his shoes and sighed. "Vito is the worst…he is such a player with the girls! And Rosie seems really fragile…I guess I don't really know her that well, but she seems really sweet and innocent."
"Hey! Mike! Are you gonna be all day in there?" Scott yelled angrily from outside.
"Ug…A little privacy please! Just wait your turn!" Mike glared at the camera. "Scott is such a…" Suddenly, a small piece of wood came flying through the open window. Scot had hurled the oversized splinter to enforce his point.
"I said hurry up, Gap-Tooth!" Mike gasped for breath as the dangerous shard of bark sliced through his shirt, making it fall in strings off his chest. His hair instantly slicked back and Vito hollered out the window.
"You rotten piece of roadkill! How would you like it if old Vito came out there and taught you a lesson that you wouldn't forget, eh?" Scott quickly ran into the woods from the threat. "C'mon ya punk! Get back here and fight the Vito!" Vito leaned back into the confessional with an irritated scowl. "That little punk Scott thinks he's a big tough guy, does he? Well he's got anotha thing comin' to him." Vito made a fist and crushed it into his other palm. Suddenly, he dropped his arms and leaned back against the wall. "I wanna know what Rosie's doin'…that girl is HOT." His face slipped up into a devious smirk and he licked his lips hungrily. "I mean, I tought that I was good, but that girl is ta masta! She is so up my alley, it's crazy talk. She is so devilish and bewitching. It's like she can cast a spell on me, ya know what I'm sayin?" Vito dreamily stared off out the window with his head in his hands. "I'd do anything for that crazy Babe."
*Fizzzzz and we r back*
