Author's Note: Thank You all for the reviews. Much appreciated. I'd like to say that I just read 'Different Season's by Stephen King, I read 'Rita Hayworth and The Shankshaw Redemption', Then 'Apt Pupil' and I just finished reading 'The Body' this morning - I know, reading more than four hundred pages in less than a week - I must be pretty bored. Well, in a way I am. Any way's next chapter is up. This chapter is bit more sexilious - but I'm not describing it that much.

----

Ace pulled his Ford 52' up to the front of Juiliette's house, hoping that she'd be home. They were going to go out bowling; Ace had challenged her to try and 'whoop his ass'. He was wearing black jeans and a black t- shirt. He was about to get out of his car when the door opened and out stepped Juiliette, walked in tiptoe. She looked at Ace and put her index finger of her left hand to her lips - signalling him to be quiet.

She was wearing tight, dark blue jeans that were cut half way down her calves, revealing just enough skin to make Ace begin to sweat. Followed by her trademark red sneakers, and on top she was wearing a light blue blouse, with the top two buttons undone, making Ace feel very warm in his. nether regions.

Ace looked slightly confused for a moment, watching Juiliette as she closed the door silently, stepped down the stairs cautiously and then padded her way across to Ace's car.

In a whispered tone she said, "My dad's angry at me, he thinks I'm in my room."

"Why?" Ace whispered back

"There's no booze left, he thinks I drank it."

"Did you?"

"No. I don't like alcohol, I don't want to be a drunk like either of my parents."

"Did Dawn drink it?" Ace asked, both of them were still whispering, Ace sounded amused but shocked.

Juiliette smiled at his question. "She's fifteen for Pete's sake."

"So? And who the hell's Pete?"

She laughed, that melodic laugh that made Ace quiver, "She didn't drink it, my dad probably did, he's just so hung over he can't remember. And there is no Pete. It's an expression."

"Honestly, I don't have to be worried about some guy called Pete stealing my girl?" Ace didn't realise what he had said until he noticed the bewildered expression on Juiliette's face.

"I'm your girl?" She asked, still looking a little dazed.

"Yeah, I mean, if you want to, I mean its okay if you don't, I completely understand, but if you want we could - "

Juiliette cut him off when she gave him a quick peck on the cheek. She felt the bristle on his face, evidence that he hadn't shaved, graze against the smooth skin of her own cheek. She pulled away and looked at him, "Ace, you were blabbering. And, yes, I'd love to."

"Be my girl?" He asked.

"Yes." She answered simply.

Ace's eyes lit up and he immediately pounced on the unsuspecting Juiliette and kissed her more passionately than they'd ever kissed. The palms of Juiliette's hands were on Ace's chest, trying to push him off, when she finally got him off, when their lips finally unlocked she began to laugh. She was still laid on the front seat of the car, Ace hovering over her.

"Get back in your cage Romeo." She said, smiling mischievously. "Or I will seriously consider buying you that leash."

"You know what?" He said, returning his attention to her neck, softly kissing it, gently nibbling. "I don't think I'd mind you getting me a leash and putting me in a cage." Sucking on her collarbone. "Maybe I want you to."

"Ace, stop it." She didn't sound like she wanted him to stop. And the Mighty Lord knew she didn't want for the life of her for him to stop. But he had to, what the hell would she do if her father woke up and decided to take a look out of the front window?

Ace did stop, he did pull away, he looked down at her collarbone and saw a small purple bruise, one that he had left moments ago.

Juiliette sat back up next to Ace. "Can we go now? Not to sound mean or impatient Ace, but my dad's head would explode if he knew I'd been lying to him."

"Would you care if your dad's head exploded? And what lies?"

"Could I tell you while we drive?"

And with that, Ace started the engine and pulled back into the road, heading in the direction of the bowling alley.

"I wouldn't mind my dad's head exploding," Juiliette started, "Hell, I'd rather is head implode." She reached into her pocket and pulled out something that she then used to tie her hair back. "Damn I hate my hair." She said stubbornly as she pulled her hair through the loop a third time.

"Why?"

"It's to long."

"I like it."

"You don't have to wash it every morning."

"Touché"

"And the lies are, these times I've been out with you, my dad thinks I've been out with girls."

"You dad thinks you're a lesbian?"

She snort laughed. "No, I mean as friends, he doesn't know I've been going out with you."

"Well, tonight we will be going out with another girl."

"We will?"

"Yeah, her name's Sophie, she's Eyeball's date."

"So it's a double date?"

"Yeah, you don't mind do you?"

"Not at all, I think it would be good to know a girl other than my sister. Trust me there are some topics you just can't talk to fifteen year olds about."

"What topics?"

"Girl stuff."

"What's girl stuff?"

"Girl stuff is girl stuff."

"In other words, you not going to tell me."

"Exactly," Juiliette said as she slid next to Ace in the front seat of his Ford 52'.

Five minutes later they arrived at the bowling alley, 'Castle Rock Pins', crummy name, but not a crummy place. Eyeball and Sophie were already there, the four of them got their shoes, and got the lane in the middle of the commotion that was tournaments that were going on between friends. Ace and Eyeball were having their own tournament against Juiliette and Sophie, who were currently winning by 7 points, indeed they were, whooping Ace's and Eyeball's asses.

Sophie was a curvaceous young lady who was slightly shorter than Juiliette, her long auburn locks reached the middle of the back, and she had medium brown eyes that kept lighting up whenever Eyeball came near her.

But, it was Eyeball's turn to bowl, so Sophie's eyes remained medium brown, the other three watched in anticipation as Eyeball knocked down all ten pins.

Sophie was leaning forward - eager, sitting next to her was Juiliette, legs and arms crossed - tense, next to her was Ace, who was leaning back as if he hadn't a care in the world.

"Strike." Ace said smugly, his head turned to Juiliette. His arm casually relaxed on her shoulders.

"Oh, shut up." Sophie said crossly.

"You evil, yet handsome, fool," Juiliette continued.

"I don't think he's handsome." Sophie stated.

"Well, I do." Juiliette said matter-of-factly.

Ace chuckled in response.

Eyeball picked up the ball from the rack, stepped up to the lane, made his approach and released the ball. The phrase 'show-off' sprung into Ace's and Juiliette's minds, while the phrase 'nice butt' sprung into Sophie's. All the pins scattered to the ground, Eyeball Chambers had once again got a strike. He let out a cry of triumph.

"Your turn, Sophie." Ace said.

"Anyone want a drink?" Eyeball asked.

"Beer." Sophie.

"Coke." Juiliette.

"Beer." Ace.

"Three beers and a coke. Sure we can't persuade you to get drunk with us, Juiliette?" Eyeball asked.

"Positive." She replied.

Sophie stood up and took her ball from the rack, raised the ball to her waist and hesitated. Not quite remembering to start her approach with her left or right foot, so she just started with her left. The ball rolled down the alley, tipped itself towards the gutter, but then went back into the centre and knocked down nine pins.

"Yay!" Sophie cried in excitement. She jumped, making her tight red t- shirt slide up to reveal some of her waist. "All of them except one."

"It's called a nine." Ace said, sneering.

Sophie stuck her tongue out at Ace and picked the ball back up from the rack, bowling and knocked down the remaining pin. "Yay!" she cried once again. "I got all of them."

Ace said as he stood up to take his turn, "It's called a strike."

Sophie sat down next to Juiliette. "Who's winning?" she asked.

Juiliette looked at the score table, "They are."

"By how much?"

"Three."

They both looked up as they heard the clatter of pins dropping to the floor on their alley.

"Make that eleven." Juiliette said as counted how many pins Ace had knocked down.

"Can't believe we're loosing to men, it's so degrading."

"It's not that bad, I mean, at least we're not playing for a prize or anything."

Sophie remained silent, she saw Eyeball come and sit back down from the corner of her eye, she was paying attention to Ace.

Ace, who was just about to release the ball practically dropped it when he heard a female voice cry:

"Juiliette! Put your blouse back on!"

He turned around and saw Sophie clutching her sides as she watched the ball slide into the gutter. Juiliette was looking very embarrassed with her blouse on, her cheeks becoming a crimson red; she too began to smile as the ball plopped into the gutter. Eyeball was just staring disbelievingly at Sophie.

"You cheater!" He cried at Sophie.

That just made her laugh even harder.

Juiliette stood up and made her way over to the rack, picked up a ball, nudged Ace out of the way; he was still standing there in shock. He finally walked stiffly to the bench and sat down, watching Juiliette gracefully release the ball. Strike.

"Hey guys," Juiliette said as she turned around with a sly grin on her face, "Just to make it fair on you boys. Maybe we should get that lane over there," She suggested. She pointed to the kiddie lane at the far side of the bowling alley, it had bumpers down both sides so that the ball couldn't go down the gutter.

Sophie laughed even harder. Ace still appeared to be in shock, Eyeball just looked annoyed.

"Just take your turn, Avalon." He said unenthusiastically.

So, Juiliette took her turn. Strike. She even celebrated by doing a small victory dance. One that made all four of them laugh.

***

They tournament without a prize came to an end half an hour later, the girls winning by two pins.

It had come down to Juiliette, they were eight pins behind, all she needed was a strike, but instead she got one of the most impossible things - a 7- 10 split. When those two pins were standing at opposite sides of the alley, the little red lines around their neck provoking Juiliette. Sophie had gone pale - Juiliette and Ace didn't know what she'd promised to do for Eyeball if the guy's won. Ace and Eyeball had laughed, both of them knowing it would be impossible for them to win now, the ball would probably go straight down the middle.

But the ball didn't go straight down the middle; it teetered to the left, hit pin number seven. And as the ball disappeared down the back, pin number seven spun to the right and ended up knocking down pin number ten.

The girls had celebrated, the guys looked, well. generally peeved off. And they still were.

"I still say we won. You two cheated." Eyeball argued as they walked across the parking lot.

"How can you cheat at bowling?" Sophie asked.

Eyeball continued to argue. "If you hadn't said Juiliette had taken her shirt off, Ace wouldn't of lost his concentration and dropped the ball.

Ace actually blushed, Eyeball still looked peeved, Sophie was stifling laughter, it was Juiliette who continued the argument.

"Eyeball," she said. "He's a hot-blooded male, I mean, can you blame him," she cupped her breasts. "For wanting to sneak a peek at these puppies."

Ace blushed harder, Eyeball looked shocked, Sophie began to laugh as she slung her arm around Juiliette and they (Sophie and Juiliette) began to walk ahead of Ace and Eyeball.

"Yeah, we won fair and square." Sophie called back to them.

The two girls giggled as they walked away from the dumbfounded men.

"Julie, I think Ace wanted to do more than just sneak a peak." Sophie said when they were a safe distance away.

"Yeah?"

"Sure, I think he wanted a good long stare, memorise every detail." Sophie said inconspicuously.

"Are you calling him a pervert?"

"Yes, but all the Cobras are perverts."

Juiliette smiled, "Even Eyeball?"

"He can be when he chooses to be."

Juiliette laughed, "How long have you two been going out?"

Sophie pondered for a moment, "About four, maybe five months."

"Awe, young love." Juiliette sighed.

"Looks like I'm not the only one."

"Huh?" Said Juiliette surprisingly

"Come on, admit it."

"Admit what?"

"I saw the way you two were looking at each other." Sophie teased.

"This is our third date." Juiliette stated.

"So? Love can happen in seconds."

"Its our third date." Juiliette stated again, a little irritated.

"Okay, calm down, here have a smoke." Sophie offered as she pulled out a pack of Winston's from the pocket of her black jeans.

"No thanks."

"You don't smoke?" Sophie said as she looked at Juiliette in astonishment.

"No, I don't smoke."

"See, Ace, girl talk is no different than guy talk." Eyeball's voice arose from behind them.

"How long have you been standing there?" A nervous Juiliette asked as she turned around to face Ace and Eyeball.

"Why? Did we miss some girl talk?" Inquired Ace.

"Yes, you missed it." Sophie said as she light her cigarette.
