I origianly started writing Biscotti in a thrid person then I changed my mind I guess thats why the first paragraph seems off I didn't really do much to change it.

I probably should have explained a little more about my last shot.

These people are sort of like reincarnations of our current Levi cast but done by me. Alek is a little sheltered boy who met Newkirk in class at the college they attend. Dr. Barlow is one of Deryn's professors. Volger is Alek's legal guardian. Alek is a little sheltered.

Deryn, Lilit, Jaspert, and Newkirk are all friends. Jaspert is still Deryn's brother. A lot of things will be the same as the books just with a modern-Cassidy twist.

Jaspert and Newkirk share an apartment

Deryn and Lilit share an apartment

Alek lives with Volger in a penthouse apartment Alek hasn't met Dr. Barlow yet.

If you have anymore questions you can either leave them in a review or if you already sent your review and then thought of your question you can PM me.

I sunk into the couch. Lilit had flung herself into the chair by the door and was furiously texting her iphone making clicking noises almost as fast as I thought it could.

"When's Alek going to get here?" I yelled at Newkirk who was making something in the kitchen.

"I don't know. He not my bloody boyfriend," He yelled back. I glared at the archway to the kitchen but Newkirk was out of my sight.

"He's not my boyfriend," I yelled.

"Yeah Newkirk there having problems getting out of the friend zone, keep up dude," Lilit told Newkirk without her eyes leaving the screen of her phone her fingers never stopped tapping either.

"You all need to shut up," I told the both of them. The bathroom door opened behind me.

"Woah Der and Lil are here," Jaspert said from the bathroom. I twisted my torso to look at him and saw he was just wearing a towel. I bent my head down shielding my eyes.

"Jaspert go put some clothes on," I yelped burring my face in the green fabric of the couch. It smelt very bad. I heard Jaspert walk across around the other ride of the couch and go into his bedroom.

The knocking interrupted the lull of Lilit's texting. The prim and perfect knocking belonged to Alek. I hopped over the edge of the couch to answer the door.

"Hey," I greeted him. He smiled at me. I opened the door to let him in. I went back to sitting on the couch. Alek put his coat on the coat rack and joined me on the couch.

"Hey Aleeeek," Newkirk greeted Alek stretching the 'e' sound in his name out. Did Newkirk think that was cool. The absence of Lilit's clicking caused me to look over at her. Lil had moved so that she was sitting with her legs curled up underneath her and she was biting her lip.

"Hey Newkirk, my Dad's coming to town. Do you want to go to the dinner with me?" Lilit asked using every ounce of innocence she had in her body to make Newkirk say yes. It really irritated me the way she played with him like this.

"Ah Alek and I are going to get coffee," I said the words rushing out of my mouth. I jumped up and Alek followed me.

"Okay," Newkirk murmured.

{LINEBREAK}

In the lobby area of Jaspert and Newkirk's apartment Alek turned to me.

"Isn't Lilit a lesbian?" Alek asked me. The confusion was evident on his face and in his body language.

"Yeah but her father doesn't know that," I told him. I was pretty sure that Zaven wouldn't have any problems with having a lesbian for a daughter but Lilit seemed to think other wise.

"Why hasn't she told him?" Alek asked. Ah the sheltered innocent boy.

"She's scared. One of her first girlfriends told her some horror story about when she told her parents," I told him "I've meet Zaven and I don't think that he would have a problem with Lilit. I'm pretty sure that he would fully support her but her view is twisted,"

"Oh," Alek said he nodded his blonde head.

Something seems off about this. I don't know what though :(. Anyway I was thinking of starting a different story to put all of my 21st century that are in this universe in. But I dunno. Also have you seen the art reveal for this month. Its over on io9. Scott links to it on his website.

Can anyone guess how I picked the title of this *Hint: its in my favorites*

Anyway I am almost to 50 reviews. So my 60th reviewer will get a request done by me *cricket chirping*. So yeah….
