You guys must hate me right now. Heck, even I hate myself. But I'm making up for it, by updating two chapter today!
"EW" CeCe turns around and walks away and goes to her room, leaving Gunther on the couch alone. She opens the door and goes inside. She shuts the door behind her and hits her head on the door. Why did he have to be here? Like she wasn't getting anough talk from Rocky. She sighs knowing that he was here, and would still be the next morning. She walks out the door and heads for the bathroom, to splash some water on her face. She opens the door, when she was hit in the face by someone else. She knew it wasn't Flynn, so that only left Gunther.
"CeCe you okay" he asks her
She rubs her eyes "Yeah, fine" her eyes cleared up and she takes a look at Gunther. He was only in boxers short. "Gunther, why are you half naked?"
"Oh, I sleep with my boxers"
"What no sparkles?"
He smiles "No, I think I'm starting to get a little manly for them"
CeCe laughs at the thought of Gunther being manly. He laughs with her and puts his hand on door frame. CeCe was looking down at his chest when he moved, and realized that he had washboard abs.
"You work out?" she felt a little weird asking that question, but she had to know.
"Well, I do push ups and play basketball, but I really wouldn't call that a workout"
"Well, could you put some shirt on? I can't have my brother walking in the middle of night, and seeing a half naked Gunther in our apartment"
"Sure" he walks past her and goes to the living room. He comes back to her with a different shirt from what he had on when he came to her apartment.
"You packed an extra shirt?"
"Yeah, I never go anywhere without a second one"
"Good" she turns around and heads for the bathroom.
"Hey, CeCe, after you are done in the bathroom, you want to do something?"
CeCe turns around "What kind of things?"
Gunther shrugs "Talk, play, stuff like that"
"Sure" she gives him a smile then turns around and closes the door of the bathroom.
When CeCe finished with the bathroom, she went and joined Gunther in the living room. But she didn't find him on the couch. She found in the kitchen over the stove. She was a little suprise and walked over to him.
"What are you doing?"
He turns in front of her "Making you dinner! I noticed you didn't really like the gulasto that papa had made"
She couldn't agree more "Yeah, a blinking eye in your dinner is not good"
He laughs "Yeah, and that's why I am making you this dinner"
"What kind of dinner?"
"Homemade mozarrella sticks!" he grabs the flour and puts it on the stove.
CeCe started laughing "That's your perfect dinner?"
"No. My perfect dinner will be tomorrow" he grabs her hand "In our picnic"
CeCe started laughing again. She didn't think he was serious for one minute, until he kept a straight face. "You are kidding right?" she asks awkwardly.
He shakes his head "We need to convince my father that we are really dating. I know Tinka will be stalking me for him, so we have to spend as much time together"
CeCe laughs again "You're kidding right?" he didn't respond and CeCe knew that he was not joking. But oh how she wished he was. She couldn't let everyone know she was dating Gunther. She was just doing this favor for him so he wouldn't move, and he never mentioned being together in public. "Gunther we don't need to prove anything to your father. He already thinks were dating, so were good"
"You do not know father. He never believes anything until he has proof. Now, just sit down and wait for the perfect dinner" he takes her hand and makes her sit in the chair. She tried to get up. but he pushed down. "Just stay and enjoy" he goes back to the stove.
He goes in the fridge and takes out a carton of eggs and milk. He sets them aside and grabs the cheese. After he finished taking all of ingredients and placing them on the counter. He takes out 3 eggs out of the carton and mixes the milk with it. He beats the eggs and milk then sets them aside. He grabs the parmesan cheese and grates it into a bowl. He mixes breadcrumbs, salt and Parmesan cheese and sets them aside. He takes out garlic powder and oregano and sprinkles it onto it.
He grabs the mozzarella cheese and takes out a knife. He cuts mozzarella cheese into 1/2 inch strips. As he was cutting them, CeCe came beside him and decided to help him. She grabs cooking oil and heats it in a skillet at a medium heat level.
Gunther dips each cheese stick into the egg and milk, then rolls it in the breadcrumb mixture. For a thicker crust, he re-dip the mozzarella stick in the egg and re-roll in breadcrumbs. CeCe takes the mozzarella sticks and frys each mozzarella stick in the hot oil for 1 minute for each side, until the coating was crispy and light brown. Gunther takes the sticks and drain the sticks on a paper towel. He places the mozzarella sticks on a baking pan and keeps it warm in the oven until it was ready to serve.
After the time dinged, Gunther took them out "Fresh and ready" he places them on the table and starts preparing the sauce. He came back later and set the sauce on the table. She sat down on the table.
"I'm gonna save some for my mom" she takes some and puts it on a plate. She takes the plate to the fridge and goes back and sits with Gunther.
She sits back with Gunther. She takes a stick and was about to eat it when he stopped her.
"Wait! Lets do it together and feed each other"
CeCe laughs "Gunther, your dad is not here'
"Yeah, but in order to pretend to be together, we have to be comfortable around each other" he holds up the stick to CeCe's mouth "CeCe, please"
CeCe hesitates before lifting a stick to his mouth. Gunther counts to three on his hand and they both feed each other. CeCe's eyes grew as she realized how amazing it was.
"This is really good, Gunther"
He takes a bite out of his stick "Of course. I am an amazing cook" he compliments himself
CeCe takes another bite "How did you learn to how to cook?" she puts her stick in the sauce and puts it in her mouth.
He shrugs "I was born with it. Kind of like the way you were born with that smile" he smiles at her and she starts blushing. She didn't know why she was blushing. Maybe it was because this was the only time Gunther was nice or without Tinka by his side.
She laughs "Shut up" she takes a stick and smothered it in sauce. She saw Gunther still smiling at her. "Gunther stop" she takes a stick and rubs it over Gunther's mouth. Gunther gasps. He takes a stick and rubs it around her mouth. CeCe gasps "Oh it's on". Now all of a sudden they both start grabbing mozzerrella sticks, dipping them, and rubbing it on each other. CeCe quickly grabs 6 sticks and goes behind the couch. She starts throwing them at Gunther, and pretty soon there was a food fight. They were both laughing when a stick hit Gunther and got stuck in his hair.
After they were no more sticks to throw, they stop. The whole kitchen was a mess and so were they.
CeCe was still laughing at the whole thing. She goes over to Gunther and takes out the stick in his hair. "You okay?"
He nods "Fine, you?" she nods too. He looks around the kitchen "Boy, did we make a mess"
"Yeah... but we'll clean it up"
"Right. and then maybe we could do something else" he winks at her.
She laughs "Shut it, Gunther" she pushes him, and he grabs her hand. He holds it. "Gunther stop and help me" she pushes him again but he held her hand firmly. She saw him still smiling at her "Gunther wipe-" she was interrupted with him leaning in front of her and placing his lips on her's. She stayed frozen and hesitated before pushing him off her. She stood there shock, while he looked embarrassed.
He coughs "Um, you can go, I'll clean this place up" he quickly goes to the kitchen without giving her a chance to say anything.
While he ran to the kitchen all theses thoughts came to CeCe's head. She didn't know why he kissed her. It was just a friendly game of food. She did not mean to start anything with him. After, all she was just helping him from moving back. She turns around and gives him one more look, before going to the bathroom, and cleaning the sauce off her.
Stupid, stupid, stupid! Why the heck did I kiss her? Now, she'll think that I was lying about moving and call off the bet. Gunther thinks, as he wipes the sauce off the fridge. He hated himself for what he just did. How in the world did he go from being her enemie, to kissing her in just one day. Damn, this one was killing him. He sighs and hangs his head in shame, thinking about the mistake he just made.
CeCe stood in front of her locker taking out her book for her next class. She hadn't seen Gunther since the accident from last night. He had woke up early and left before she had anything to say to him. But she couldn't blame him. Even she would be embarrasse, if she kissed a boy and he just stood their shocked at him. She might have-
"Hey, CeCe" Rocky said from behind interrupting CeCe from her thoughts. CeCe jumped up from being startled and dropped her books on the ground. "So, how did your night with Gunther went? Did you too cuddle?" she asks with a big smile on her face.
"It went like any other night, Rocky!"
Rocky laughs "Oh, come on, CeCe! Spill me the deets"
CeCe sighs "Well, we talked, made mozzorrella sticks, had a food fight, and then he... kissed me"
Rocky squeels "He did!" she stops "Wait! Gunther kissed you at his parents house, why is it a big deal if he kissed you then"
CeCe bends down and picks up her book "Because we weren't at his parents house. He didn't need to pretend that we were dating." she puts her book in the locker to hold it "I just don't know why he did it"
"Well, duh!" she grabs CeCe and shakes her "He's in love with you". CeCe laughs and Rocky shakes her harder than before. "If he wasn't in love with you, then why he didn't just pick any girl at this school"
"Because I am the only one who would go along with the plan"
Rocky rolls her eyes "You do know that Jenny Lao has a crush on Gunther, don't you?"
"So he doesn't like her. So what?"
Rocky sighs and lets her go "You know, Jealousy is not a good color on you"
CeCe gasps "I look good in every color" she shuts her locker and walks away diva style.
Gunther groaned as his sister rambled in his ear. She kept talking about why did he go and stay with CeCe? Why is he not wearing the same clothes at her? Why is there no sparkles, ya-di-ya-da, and ect. He sighs at her and goes to his locker.
"I just don't understand how all of a sudden you don't wear the same clothes" Gunther didn't reply to her and she started again "Could you not find it in your closet? when he didn't answer again, she gasps "It's CeCe, isn't it? Ever since she became your girlfriend you have been weird."
Gunther sighs "No, it is not CeCe"
"Oh, stop lying. CeCe is changing you, and I don't like it one bit! I bet she calls you-"
"Hey baby!" CeCe interruptes them. She stands behind Gunther and wraps her arm around his waist.
Tinka raised her eyebrows "What are you doing?" she asks CeCe
"Supporting my boyfriend! Duh" she turns her attention to Gunther "So, were still on for that picnic, right?"
Tinka grunts "You two are so-" she turns around and stomps away from them. The minute Tinka was out of their sight, CeCe released herself from Gunther.
Gunther turns and looks at her "What are you doing?"
"I saw you were in trouble, and I helped you. Is that a crime?"
"I just thought, you would be mad at me for last night"
She shakes her head "It was just an accident. And beside, I'm looking forward to that picnic" The bells rings. "Well, see you after school" she turns around and leaves. Gunther watched her leave before turning and heading to his class. While all the kids went to their class, one kid did not. She stayed behind and was listening on CeCe's and Gunther's conversation. The minute they left she took out of glasses and smile.
"Ah hah! I knew there was something up! There is no way they are dating. And I am going to get proof of that"
"Can I get my goggles now?" a kid asks next to her
She sighs and hands him it. "I knew I should have hid a better place! Not my best idea to hide in a school, 20 feets away from my culprits."
Like I said: I will update two chapters. The second one is almost finish.
