Chapter 7

Luther's POV

"That's great, bro! You should go for it! You should probably tell her that you told Ozzie that she's dating Wen or Charlie. So that she can make up something about how they broke up. So Ozzie isn't suspicious, you know? And, also it'll let you start off with a clean slate, no secrets. I figure it's better if you tell her about the Ozzie thing sooner rather than later. Or rather than have her find out herself. Stella seems to be the type of person who can stand her ground and fight back. So it's probably better that way."

"I'll tell her about the whole Ozzie situation. I'm not going to make that mistake," Zeke assured me.

"That's good. So, when are you going to tell her, bro?" I asked.

"Whenever the moment is right," he answered, dreamily.

"Okay," I said, a little weirded out. Zeke never talks like this. "Um, we should probably go back to the others before their think we are plotting or something," I joked.

"Right, right," he said, brushing me off. We headed back over to the group.

"So guys," Zeke began, checking his watch, "It's around 4:00 and Luth and I have to get going. We promised our parents we'd spend quality time with our siblings at least a couple of hours a day. We'll walk you back to the hotel though."

"Thanks," Stella answered, "That would be great."
"I didn't know you had any siblings," Mo stated.

"Yeah, I've got mini-munch…well, Ginger, I guess would be her real name. And, Luther's got a little brother named Roy. Do not get between that kid and his video games, I'm telling you. He gets crazy strong and violent."

"I learned that the hard way," I said. Olivia giggled and I smiled at her.

"Thanks for the warning," Stella said. The others laughed along.

"Well, let's go!" I said. We walked out of Ramps and headed back to the hotel.

Olivia's POV

We were at the hotel now. When we got there, while the others went up, I lingered for a bit. Luther gave me a parting kiss on the cheek and his number so we could plan when we were going to meet up again.

We were all in our rooms. Stella, Mo, and I were in mine and Mo's room again. The boys were in their room.

Stella and Mo were grilling me with questions about Luther.

"Out with it, Olivia!" Mo ordered.

"Out with what?" I asked, coyly.

"Stop kidding around! Tell us what's up between you and Luther!" Stella persisted.

"It's so obvious he has a major crush on you. Plus, at the skate park, you two disappeared off for a while," Mo said.

"He was just…teaching me to skateboard," I answered.

"Ooh," Stella wagged her eyebrows.

"It wasn't like that!" I playfully shoved her, and she fell on the bed laughing.

"I know, I know," Stella said, with as much seriousness as she could muster. "I was just teasing."

"We just want to know what happened!" Mo exclaimed.

"Fine," I answered, surrendering, "Luther asked me to be his girlfriend."

The girls gasped.

"And…I said yes," I finished, checking their reactions. They looked at me, openmouthed, and shocked. The looks of shock were soon replaced by two wide grins.

They began jumping up and down screaming, pulling me along with them.

Suddenly, Mo stopped. "Wait, what about Wen?" We all fell silent.

Wen's POV

Charlie was texting Mo on his phone while I was lying down on my bed watching T.V. Suddenly, the tapping of Charlie's fingers on his cell phone's keypad abruptly stopped.

I looked at him.

"I've got some news," he told me, his face solemn.

"Well, what is it?" I asked, impatiently.

"Olivia's dating Luther."

I felt my heart break into a million pieces. And then, the world went black.

Stella's POV

"Guys! Guys!" I said repeatedly, more impatiently every time.

Olivia and Mo were sitting on Mo's bed talking through the Wen situation. I zoned out halfway through the conversation. And, my mind traveled to…other things. Namely…Zeke.

I'm not the type of girl to fall for a guy I just met. I mean...I'm not Olivia. Just kidding. I've never really cared about boys or dating. To me, they were just sort of…there. Except for Wen and Charlie, they're my friends and I care for them a lot.

But, Zeke was different. And, I really liked him.

I couldn't take it anymore. I needed to tell someone. And, two someones were right here, sitting right in front of me. Finally, Mo broke the conversation with Olivia to look at me after my annoying, "Guys! Guys!"

"What?" Mo said, exasperatedly. "Olivia and I are trying to figure out a crisis here!"

"Well, I'm going through a crisis, too," I told her.

"What is it, Stell?" Olivia asked, moving to sit next to me on her bed, where I was sitting.

"I think I like Zeke."
