Chapter three
She winced as the door creaked open, "damn," she muttered looking up towards the stairs hoping that her housemate didn't wake up. She took her shoes off and picked them up making her way silently towards her bedroom. The lights were off so she had to be careful because she couldn't see where she was going, her heart skipped a beat when she saw someone standing in the end of the hall. Because she was only at the top of the stairs her hand sought out the light switch, standing at end of the hall was the red head from before and a short boy beside him.
Sighing Bellatrix ran a hand over her wary face, her eyes bored into Tala's tediously, he looked surprised before a large grin overcame his face. Blinking the black haired girl walked into her room slamming the door behind her, "stupid people…it's bloody one in the mornin'," she dumped her shoes in the corner of her room not caring that they banged loudly against the floor.
"I'm Tala," the red head was leaning against the door smirking at her as she threw a nightgown on her bed, "I'd never take you as the silky red nightgown type," he watched her amused as she just ignored him, "I'd take that as an invitation to watch you get changed."
"You're a cocky one," Bellatrix muttered as she stared at him with her piercing eyes, "makin' it seem like you're all that, that you could have me. You don't even deserve my respect, I'll give you one for your good looks but other then that, you think you're god's gift to woman. Get fucked." She continued on with her business and began pulling things out of her bag.
"By no one but you," Tala replied easily, Kai shook his head and leaned against the wall outside.
"Sorry love but I believe in abstinence."
Tala gasped, "you don't believe in sex before marriage!"
"Catholic," Bellatrix held out the crucifix around her neck and then walked up to Tala.
"So – so do you go to church every Sunday or something?" Tala asked wide eyed.
"I don't go that far," she quickly pushed Tala out of her room and closed the door. Tala stared at Kai perplexed and then noticed the indigo haired boy sniggering; Kai shrugged and leaned off the wall.
"You should learn to be more polite to the ladies," Ian piped up running his fingers through his messy hair. "Watch and learn," he knocked on the door and when it opened to reveal the slightly taller girl he smiled charmingly. "I'm sorry about my friend; he doesn't know what the word respect means."
"Well…if that's the case then what are you doin' hangin' out with him?" Bellatrix asked crossing her arms over her chest as she studied the boy in front of him. "And how old are you?" she asked raising her eyebrows slightly, "you look like a fifteen year old…"
Ian puffed out his chest angrily and glared at the brown eyed girl, "I am nineteen thankyou very much!" he snapped, "and speak for yourself your only a few inches taller then me."
"Yea…but I'm a girl…I stopped growin' when I was sixteen seventeen, you're what nineteen and you stopped growin' last year…you're still short." She heard Tala sniggering and she then looked at each of them in turn, "you all should be in bed, all in bed and away from my room. I have classes tomorrow." She made sure that they were all gone before Kai returned up the stairs looking relieved; he walked past her though without muttering goodnight and entered the solitude of his room. "Bloody men."
The next morning they were each up by half past six in the morning, Kai being up first. He sat at the table, newspaper in hand and mug of coffee in front of him. "Good mornin'!" he inwardly groaned and pretended to ignore the girl that was still walking around in her red silk nightgown. "I see you're still not goin' to talk to me, be that as it may I am your housemate and frankly you're going to have to talk to me sooner or later." Kai rolled his eyes and took a sip of his coffee.
"Good morning Kai," again he inwardly groaned as he felt the lips of his girlfriend on his cheek. "Good morning I'm Eriol," the green haired girl extended her hand in which Bellatrix shook politely, though she held no resentment to the girl. Eriol's long green hair was tied in a long braid with a red ribbon which matched her red turtleneck. Her silvery eyes shimmered in the early morning but they somewhat darkened at Bellatrix's attire. "Not to be rude but who are you?" she asked looking from her boyfriend to the new girl.
"I'm Bellatrix, his new housemate," Bellatrix replied going back to making a coffee, "would you like some toast or coffee?"
"No thankyou," Eriol sat down beside Kai and snuggled up to him, "Kai, love, what are we doing today?" she asked him.
"Ah…nothing," Kai replied easily as he took another sip of his coke.
"Nothing?"
"I have class."
"So? Skip it," the green haired girl shrugged nonchalantly and stared out of the window into the garden, "oh what do they want now?" he glowered in the direction of two parked cars and a couple of nineteen year olds as they made their way towards the house.
"Good morning!" Tala walked into the kitchen from the foyer entrance and smiled charmingly at Bellatrix.
"Don't you have other people to annoy? How do you get in? Is this breakin' and enterin' because I can call the police," she wagged her spoon at him and then turned around huffily.
"I just love to annoy you and Kai keeps his window unlocked," Tala replied taking a bite into a cookie, "hey guys," he greeted as Tyson and the others walked in through the side door.
"Hey," they said simultaneously, "who are you?" they asked staring at the green haired girl.
"You haven't told your friends about us Kai?" Eriol asked bewildered.
"We never really talk about our personal lives," Kai shrugged and then looked at Ray, "they got our mail mixed up again," he nodded towards the letters on the counter. Ray nodded his head and as he passed Kai he clapped him on the back.
"What are you guys doin' here?" Bellatrix asked sitting opposite Eriol.
"We always come here weekdays," Tyson reached for the cookie jar but ended up glaring at Tala who was trying to keep the jar away from him.
"Was that you on the radio last night Bella?" Max asked searching through the fridge for some food.
"Yea, I was fillin' in for DJ Ness," she soon dumped her empty mug in the sink and made to move out of the kitchen, "I'll be right down, need to get changed."
They stood around awkwardly, Tyson and Max glancing at Eriol, who was snuggled up close to Kai that was still drinking his coffee. Tala and Ray were sending meaningful looks in Kai's direction who was also ignoring them, Hilary was busying herself by making breakfast for Kenny who had been complaining about his hunger in the car. It was an awkward silence though Eriol seemed to not have noticed.
Fed up, Hilary switched the radio on and smiled allowing the booming music to fill the kitchen.
I am back and ready for action! That was Cascada 'Everytime we touch' and this is DJ Ness feeling much better. DJ Trix I know you're listen or you better be – thanks for filling in for me last night, this one's for you Trix.
Bellatrix entered the kitchen fully clothed in a black skirt, black tights and a red jumper, a black scarf wrapped tightly around her neck. Eriol looked up and smiled, "I like your scarf," she said, her hand was clasping tightly onto the collar of Kai's shirt and her eyes glittered in the kitchen light.
"Thanks," Bellatrix made to move towards the pantry but was stopped by Tala. "Move." She gritted out.
"I'm sorry about how we started last night you know, it wasn't all that right of me," he smiled nervously and Bellatrix shrugged.
"Yes it wasn't right of you," Bellatrix mumbled, she shoved past him and opened the pantry door, "anyway I'm goin', early classes and then radio segment, bye!" biting into a biscuit and waved before leaving out of the backdoor.
"Bellatrix wait up!" A burgundy haired boy came running up to her and smiled. "Good morning," he chirruped.
"Good mornin' Johnny…" Bellatrix greeted confused, "shouldn't you be in the booth doin' Michael's show?" she stuck a thumb over her shoulder and took a quick glance in the direction. Johnny and she had been friends since they started at the University and since the last year of high school. They were similar when it came to accents, Johnny was Scottish and Bellatrix just had a somewhat southern accent. Johnny or Knight as some call him had long burgundy hair which he spent hours shaping into a flame; his eyes may seem to look haughty but they were the most beautiful violet that contrasted well with his smooth tan skin.
"Oh naw, I traded with Raul so now I do your segments and he does Michael's."
"Does Miriam know?" She sat down at her usual seat in the lecture hall and took off her gloves.
"Yea Raul told Enrique who called Miriam," Johnny said taking a seat beside her, "so how's everything at home?" he asked seriously, the bright tint that was usually found in his eyes had dulled considerably.
"I moved out a day or two ago, mum wants me home but I told her I'm nineteen and I can do whatever the fuck I want." Bellatrix bumped knuckles with Johnny and relaxed in her uncomfortable seat.
"So do I get the new phone number or address anytime soon?" the Scottish boy asked rather impatiently.
8888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888
Rather lame but it was hard to right because I'm trying to get away from the last concept and a different plot from the last Housemate series. I hope you like the story so far and I want reviews, why don't people review now it totally sucks ass.
