Hey guys! Hope you like this chapter! Wasn't sure! And I'm exited about it so I'll just get right to it!...
I left the hallway, followed a minute later by Zach. I then began to mingle and be the chameleon I was.
I would strike up conversations with people I didn't even know and would act like the high society teen I was supposed to be. All the while I was keeping track of Zach and listening to other people's conversations. Talk about major multitasking!
I was looking for a 'black panther' portrayed by my friend, the bugged COC agent. Mr. Kitchikt would be looking for a 'striking viper'. They thought of very violent names, I almost pitied them for the trouble they will be in when Mr. Striking Viper doesn't get his package.
To bad.
I smiled as I talked to the young boy Macey had been chatting and flirting with earlier. He was a nice boy but he was not nearly my type. I like the dark and secretive boys.
Zach spared me an annoyed glance. My heart throbbed, was that jealously I detected in those dazzling green eyes?
I soon told him good-bye and continued on in my social line. I was so distracted by an interesting conversation about a man buying a black panther and how he could acquire a viper that I didn't realize who had approached me until it was too late.
Bex was standing right in front of me. Fully prepared to strike up a conversation with my mysterious cover.
I quickly indicated to Zach, with my hand behind my back, to the man speaking of the black panther.
I smiled at Bex when she began to exchange pleasantries and swivelled my head to the side.
Zach gave me a nod, telling me he knew what to do, and I relaxed. I didn't relax for long though.
I immediately tensed when my British friend asked, "Who are you?"
I immediately stated my covers name, automatically lapsing into my southern drawl or so I believed, "I'm Tia Venire. Pardon me for not introducing myself." I looked at her, but she didn't seem at all satisfied.
"No, that's not what I meant." She responded, shaking her head.
I asked, actually curious, "Then what did you mean. I honestly do not believe it is at all in fairness to ask a simple question but only retaliate that it is not what you meant. Could I bother you to explain?"
Bex glowered at me for a second and then motioned to Liz and Macey who I had spotted across the room. Uh Oh, I thought, what have I done this time?
She then spoke, "We had that entire conversation in Hindu yet you do not seem Hindu or connected to the Hindu in the least."
My eyebrows flew up as I muttered " Shit." under my breath. This is not good, not good at all.
I motioned for Zach to back me up or get me out of this as a last attempt of escape.
"I'm sorry, I learned Hindu as a child from my aunt who is married to a Hindu man. Hindu is like a second language to me." I lied feebly, checking to make sure I was all English with southern accent.
"I have never met someone from Texas who was connected to a Hindu man. Trust me, I would know." Macey replied as she and Liz came up from behind me.
They immediately flanked Bex and the three of them glared at me.
I sure was in the hot seat know, I thought at an attempt of optimism through humour. It didn't work, not even a bit.
The three girls who were my best friends continued to stare at me. Bex finally opened her mouth and growled, "This is the last time I am going to ask nicely, who are you?"
So how did you like it? I've decided to change the summary but don't worry, I'm not changing the title! Please Review!
