A/N: Thank you simplet 77, itswhatever, booIczu, and Eaglesenior so much for your reviews I loved them. I got crazy sick last night and it doesn't seem to be going away so I've had a lot of time to write. I hope you enjoy this next chapter.
Gorgeous
Chapter 1
Maybe this won't be so bad. The room is nice, the people are nice, and my raging mother is like 300 miles away. This house is incredible. I was worried whether or not we were all going to fit, but when we pulled up all my fears were tossed out the window. Shit, the entire cast or Queer Eye could live here, and their mothers. We're staying with Damara's brother. Damara is Glen's drummer and possibly the hottest chick I've ever seen. Speaking of…
"Knock, knock."
I look up and return Damara's smile. "Hey."
"Can I come in?"
"Yea, of course. I'm sorry it's a little messy and," I begin jumping into full jitter mode, the flush rising to my cheeks. She laughed. Why is she laughing? Do I look like an idiot?
"Spence, you just got here calm down," she said tucking a stray piece of black hair behind her ear. Is it weird that I think even her ears are beautiful?
"Right," I said with a laugh, more at myself than anything, "I must sound like an idiot."
"A little bit," she said with a smile, "but maybe it's just jet lag. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that dinner's ready, but you look exhausted so if you just wanna crash I'm sure everyone will understand."
"No," I said shaking my head fervently, "No, I'll be down in a second. Just let me clean myself up a little."
"Okay."
As she closed the door behind her I practically collapsed into myself letting out all the air I had been holding in. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Way to look like a moron Spencer. Well, dinner time, and my time to redeem myself.
"Baby sis," Glen announced as I walked into the kitchen, "nice of you to join us."
The kitchen was a blur of movement. Glen was bringing plates out into what I assumed was the dining room. Damara was pouring what looked like coke into several stylish glasses. Several people were stirring things on the stove, while others were preparing salad and other side dishes. I stood there knowing I must look retarded.
"Is there anything I can do?" I finally managed to get out.
"No, you're a little too late to help, but way to offer. Real thoughtful of you," Glen said sarcastically as he returned to the kitchen to grab some napkins.
"No babe," Damara said kindly, "everything's set, come on in and sit down."
"Okay," I said dumbly and followed her into the dining room where eight other people were settling down to eat.
"Hey everyone, this is Spencer, Glen's little sister," Damara said taking a seat and patting the one next to her offering it to me. I didn't object and quickly took it giving a small smile and a wave to the people at the table.
"This is, Calix, Damian, Alayla," she began the introductions. These faces I knew. They were all members of Glen's band. Calix was the guitarist, Damian played the bass, and Alayla was their manager or something like that. Now onto the people that I didn't recognize, "that's Aiden, my brother, Tallia, my sister, and then Kyla, Aiden's boyfriend."
"I'm sorry what?" the raven haired girl asked angrily.
"Oh my bad, I mean girlfriend," Damara replied snidely. Okay, so mental note, they don't like each other.
"Wow, do you all live here?"
Kayla answered me first, "No, I live with my sister like a block away from here."
"Yea," Aiden chimed in, "and I live with her, my girlfriend," he shot at Damara who merely shrugged.
The meal continued with small talk and everyone getting to know one another. I tried to soak everything in. They were all very good looking people. Calix and Damian both had blonde hair, but Calix was slightly taller and more built than Damian. Alayla had gorgeous red hair and searching grey eyes. Tallia looked exactly like Damara, maybe they were twins? The only difference I could see was that Damara had dyed her tips an icy blue. She looked a lot better too, her eyes, her lips…
"See something you like?"
I jumped as Damara whispered into my ear, "I…I."
"So, we've all agreed we're going to Grey's?" Aiden asked as he began to clear the table.
"What?" I said eager to change the subject and ignore the feelings Damara's breath against my ear gave me.
"We're going clubbing!" Glen said excitedly.
"I'm going to go call some people and invite them," Kyla said as she pulled out her cell phone and began dialing.
Okay Spencer, get yourself together. This is not like you, you are not a nervous person you are an "Yea I know I make you hot person" so start acting like it. You are going to go out tonight, and you are going to look great, and you are going to make a move on Damara or forever hate yourself for being a complete coward.
