Chapter 26

Uninvited Guests

"Well this sucks, there not home." Lance sighed as he glanced around the empty lair of David and his gang. "I'll just wait till the right moment." He said jumping up into a high tree that shadowed over the hotel. "That was fun" Paul cheered. "Best time ever" Marko added parking his bike. "You two are weird." I thought stepping off the bike. We headed into the hotel and relaxed listening to our new jukebox that Paul had gotten from one of his meals since he'd forgotten to pick up the other one we had found a while back ago. "When are they going to leave her?" Lance whispered to himself as he watched them from the tree. "Guess they learned from last time." He chuckled. "Gosh how many times are you going to win at this?" Paul said slamming his cards down as Marko laughed. Dwayne just shook his head accepting his defeat. "Looks like princess is asleep David" Paul said leaning over the back of the couch. David looked up giving him a harsh look making him back up. "She's just tired" He replied running his fingers through my hair. "Hmm?" I mumbled leaning my head up slightly off his lap. "Did I fall asleep?" "Seems so" David replied patting my head lightly. "What are we to do with Lance?" Paul asked spinning around and around in the stool. "Let's forget about that wannabe till we meet up with him again." David said annoyed that Paul brought the situation up. "Eh alright then" Paul replied standing up and jumping onto the other couch. "How bout some takeout?" He suggested. "I'd like some" Marko said passing out some cards to himself and Dwayne. "Do you want anything Holli?" Paul asked. "Nah I'm fine" I replied sitting up. "David?" "I'm alright at the moment" "Dwayne?" "Why not" He said holding his cards up so Marko couldn't see them. "Alright be back in a bit, anyone care to go with?" "Why not" Marko finally said, seeing David giving him the hint to go with Paul; Dwayne nodded and stood up after seeing the same stare from David. "Have fun boys" I said with a smile and the thought of me and David being alone once again made me wonder what he'd try and do.

Once the three had left David didn't say much, he just flipped through his magazine and stopped at times to ponder about something. I cleared my throat hoping he'd turn his attention to me instead of the stupid book, but he only ignored me making me sigh with grief. After a while of me just sitting there waiting for him to do something I gave up and walked over to the bar. "Where do you think you're going?" David demanded tossing the magazine onto the table then standing up. "Just bored" I replied turning my eyes back to see he had made his way over behind me. "Bored are we?" He laughed slightly as if he disagreed with me. "Now tell me how you are bored?" He asked turning the stool around where I faced him. He was much taller then I even with me sitting on the stool. I loved it when the guy is taller then the girl makes you feel protected and sometimes intimidated, but either way I loved it. "Shall I un-bored you?" David said smirking. "Hmm, I thought you said I was to obey anything you told me?" I teased. "Ah that's right" He laughed. "You got to be kidding me" Lance watched the two kiss. "Seems that's why he didn't want me stealing her from him." He sighed, but laughter quickly replaced it. "Shall I interrupt their little romantic night?" He asked himself. "Hell yes!" He shouted jumping down from the tree landing at the hotel's entrance. "Why hello, am I interrupting something?" Lance laughed as he entered stepping to the side and taking a seat at the bar. David and I parted and stared coldly at Lance who had his arms crossed impatiently. "Why the hell are you back?" I shouted at him pissed that he'd busted in on my moment; and I thought Aunt Lace was a moment killer. "Oh I'm sorry" He said standing up smiling at David who stepped in front of me. "Do use a favor and get the hell out of Santa Carla Lance." David said enraged greatly. "And why would I do that?" He shook his head. "Then I couldn't steal poor Holli here from you, now that wouldn't be fun now would it?" "Lance I swear you lay one hand on her I'll rip you apart!" David shouted.

"Shhh" Ace said as he and Ryona peeked into the hotel from behind a large rock. "There he is" Ryona whispered. "And that's… David?" Ace replied confused. "Look a girl" She said pointing to Holli who was hiding behind a pillar behind David. "I see now" Ace said as they watch Lance and David exchange harsh looks. "He's after her" He said standing up. "What are you doing?" Ryona said pulling on Ace's jeans. "What does it look like, I'm going after Lance." Ryona sighed and stood up beside him. "Alright Lance you're time hiding is up!" Ace shouted running inside Ryona behind him. "Ah why hello" Lance said turning slightly so he could watch both David and Ace. "Come to take me home I bet, Aylen misses his bother so much." He laughed. "Who are they?" I asked stepping out and beside David. "Just a bunch of vamps that need to leave us the hell alone and take this bastard home to L.A." David replied pulling out a cigarette. "Just let them talk, better not get involved just yet." He said taking a draw. I nodded and held onto David's arm as we watched the three argue. "You know exactly why he kicked you out Lance, and now he doesn't care how we take you home dead or alive." Ryona explained giving Lance a smirk as she said dead, that's the way she wanted to bring him home and only that way.
