Chapter 3: Jealous Much?

Maybeck's POV:

After Willa's performance, no one could find her for, like, ten minutes. We were looking everywhere. Finally, I saw her…Talking to a guy.

I slowly crept away from the group, not wanting anyone (especially Philby) too see the spectacle happening across the room. If that happened, all hell would break loose. Not good.

As I got closer, Willa saw me. "Maybeck!" she sounded really excited and really confused. "Were you guys looking for me? Sorry, I bumped into Jeremy here-" she gestured to the broad-shouldered guy next to her and he gave a small smile and a salute-type wave. "-and I guess things got a little sidetracked from there"

I looked from her to Jeremy and back. I repeated the action multiple times, dazed and confused, while we stood there in awkward silence. "Well." I started, my normal cool guy personality back on. "The others are going crazy looking for you, so we should probably head back." I started pulling her towards the others, away from Jeremy.

Of coarse, HE had to ruin it. "Wait? The other DHIs? Really? Can I meet them?" I seriously didn't like this Jeremy guy, something about him. He suddenly got all sweet and innocent as he faced Willa. "I mean, if that's okay with you." Stupid Jeremy, moving in on my best friend's (unofficial) girl! (Woah! Was that Maybeck talking there? I lost my cool for a second. It's a scary thought, I know.)

Willa looked over at the other keepers, caution in her eyes. She then looked at me with a face that asked me my opinion.

I knew this guy wasn't going to give up, so I just shrugged and said "Sure, whatever just, be cool." That earned an eye roll from Willa.

We started towards the others. Jess looked up at us joyfully, then got confused when she saw Jeremy walking behind us.

She spoke. "So, guys, hey. Uh, Willa! Great job on stage! Quick little question, uh, who's this?" she finished by pointing to Jeremy. I had the feeling everyone else wanted to know the answer to that question as well.

As Willa started introducing Jeremy to everyone, I noticed Philby examining Willa and Jeremy's behavior. He looked at me for guidance , but I just shrugged and shook my head. How the hell was I supposed to know what happened with those two before I got there?

Charlene's POV:

Jeremy decided to walk back to our suite with us. Jess could barely take her eyes off him. Who could blame her? He was HOT! (Snap out of it Charlie! You HAVE a boyfriend! Did I just say that out loud? Oh, crap.) Ignore that last part, please. Thank you.

Anyway, Finn and Jeremy were immediately friends, but Maybeck and Philby seemed to steer away from him on the walk across the ship.

I could understand Philby's dislike, what with the whole Willa-crush thing, but Maybeck? This guy had over-confidence written all over him. Why wasn't Maybeck as quick to become this guy's friend? Great. That's just what we need, another mystery in our lives.

After an awkward time of only Willa and Finn talking to Jeremy, we made it to our suite. Jeremy said bye to us, though I have a suspicion it was mostly geared towards Willa, and pushed his way past the very annoyed pair of Maybeck and Philby. He walked down the hall and disappeared through a door. Does this mean his suite's just down the hall? That could be both a good thing and a bad thing.

We went inside, everyone was exhausted and decided to go straight to bed. The other girls and I trudged off to the master bedroom we all shared while the boys took their respected spots on couches and chairs.

"Good night, world" I said to myself, and with that, I fell into a dreamless sleep, half expecting to wake up in Disneyworld, back in Florida. Sadly, I knew that that wasn't going to happen.

Finn's POV:

I woke up at two o'clock in the morning and had to pee. (Aren't I sophisticated?)

I was walking towards the bathroom when I heard voices coming from the master bedroom.

I heard Amanda's voice first. "So, Willa. What's up with Jeremy? He's cute, huh?"

Willa, obviously annoyed, had probably been getting these questions all night. "Yeah, I guess. Can we please talk tomorrow? I say we follow in Charlie's footsteps and GO TO SLEEP!"

I heard another voice. Jess. "So you admit he's cute, but do you admit that he's totally smoking hot gorgeous?!" Little too much excitement there.

Willa ended the conversation there, or tried to. "Guys! You know VERY WELL that I DON'T like Jeremy that way! Good Night!"

Jess wasn't done. "Hey! All I'm saying is there was a perfectly nice slab of man right in front of you. I wouldn't be surprised if you wanted to-"

Willa saw where that was going and stopped it before it was too late. "I SAID GOOD NIGHT!" she shouted.

I silently laughed as I traveled the rest of the way to the bathroom.

Typical Jess.

Ok so yesterday I forgot to mention that KINGDOM KEEPERS 6 CAME OUT! YAY!

Also, I wrote this chapter at 11:00 last night and I was texting my friends at the same time and I was really tired, so this chapter is not very good. It's pretty much a filler chapter. I promise there is better stuff to come!

And for anyone wondering who my favorite character is, it's Willa. I made her less of the innocent girl she was in the first few books.

DPHPLOVER101 guessed Philby because he didn't have his little 'attitude' and I really didn't notice that until now, so thanks.

I DID, however, change the rating from K+ to T cuz I'm paranoid like that.
