Sarahamanda: Thankyou, yet again! Hope you enjoy this chapter!
Daydreamer - 022: I'm glad you're liking this. And hopefully, Victoria will never become a skank, because skanks are bad :) I do in fact live in Sydney; do you? Did you do the HSC as well? If so, I hope you're going okay! I actually have one exam left - ( I lied.. hehe) , but it's a week or so away, so I'm not thinking about it.. hehe. Anyways, thanks, once again!
Chapter 4: Attraction, or no attraction?
You know, I really have respect for Victoria. She's not like most girls I know, but when she get's with Lilly and Mia, it's amazing. I don't even know why we are sitting with them anyway, but honestly, she transforms into one of them. Girls will be girls, but I guess it's just the fact that she can get on with anyway really. Like for instance, now they are talking about how hot some of the guys here at school are.
"Josh is so hot," says Mia, with a big grin on her face.
"Agreed," says Lilly straight away, her face smiling also.
"Please, please tell me you don't agree with these two," I say to Victoria, who is sitting there thinking.
"I dunno Michael," she laughs. "He is pretty cute. Pity that's the only good thing about him."
"I have to disagree," says Mia, piping up. "Josh is nice."
I raise my eyebrows. "You think that there's some goodness in Josh? Please, what are you on?"
"Nothing," she says defensively. "But really, he's a nice guy."
"Yeah yeah, and the day that happens, I'll be some famous rock star up there with the likes of Kurt Cobain."
At that, Lilly bursts into laughter. "And the day that happens, my TV show will become famous, and everyone will be watching it."
"Hey Lilly, I can handle that I won't become as great as Kurt Cobain. No one ever could. But hey, I can see that no one is ever going to watch you show, after all, who like's to watch crap?"
"Oh your so funny Michael!" she says angrily, and I just laugh.
"Anyways," says Victoria smiling slightly. "What are you three doing tonight?"
"Nothing," I say.
"Mia? Lilly?" asks Victoria.
"Nothing," they say together.
"Well," says Victoria. "My mum and dad are out for the weekend, so I was wondering, did you want to come over after school? We could go for swim, and then watch some movies? Maybe even stay over."
"Sure," smiled Mia. "I'll just have to check with my mum, but it should be okay."
"Cool," said Victoria. "Lilly?"
"Well," said Lilly. "I was going to work on my show, so it depends on what movies we plan to watch."
"Oh don't worry," laughed Victoria. "I have a wide variety, many to your liking."
"Well that settles it then," she said. "What time?"
"Just come over when your ready," said Victoria, as the bell rang for class. "Don't forget your costumes."
"Okay," said Lilly. "Well Mia and I have to go, we've got to talk to Mrs. Gupta about something before Algebra."
"Bye," said Lilly and Mia, and Victoria and I replied back.
"So," said Victoria, turning on me as we headed for Chemistry, "you up for it?"
"I dunno," I said truthfully. "Hanging with you, my younger sister and her best friend could be disastrous, not to mention detrimental to my health."
Victoria laughed. "Come on, I need you there."
"Why?" I asked.
"Because there's only so many soppy films I can go through," she said, and then grinned. "You can be my reason to put Terminator and GOOD films on."
I laughed. "Oh, so I'm just a reason am I? You don't actually want me there though, do you?"
"Of course I do!" she said, hitting me jokingly. "It'll be good to have you there, and besides, I've got to show you my guitar and the drum kit."
"Okay," I smiled. "I'll come. As long as there's no makeup, or anything like that involved."
"Good," she said happily as we took our seats for class. "And no makeup, promised."

In my board shorts I rang the doorbell and waited for Victoria to answer.
"Hey hey, you came!" she laughed, opening the front door.
"Yes," I said slowly, with a smile. "I did."
"Well come in," she said. "Where's Lilly and Mia? Didn't they come with you?"
"No," I said. "Lilly and Mia are taking the limo apparently. Lilly said something about stopping off at the shops first."
"Oh okay," said Victoria. "Well I'll take you on the grand tour."
I looked around, and her house was nice. It was very spacious. Victoria took me around, showing me the kitchen, lounge room, the pool, and finally her bedroom.
"Nice posters," I said, looking at all the various bands covering her walls: Nirvana, PJ Harvey, Queens of the Stone Age etc. The White Stripes seemed to hold the most glory however.
"Thanks," she said, as she searched through her desk. And I thought females were supposed to be clean. Books were strewn everywhere, as was paper and a whole lot of other stuff. Even her computer was covered in notes.
"How are you supposed to study with that mess?" I laughed.
"Very hard," she said back, finally finding what she was looking for. "Ticket's to see The White Stripes!"
"Cool," I smiled. "When is it?"
"In about three weeks," she said. "I'm so happy I've got them. Their show's sell out really quick."
"I can imagine," I reply, then spotting her guitar, and picking it up. "Nice."
"Bring it with you, and follow me."
We headed towards another room and found a drum kit. She took a seat.
"Any song's you know?" she asked.
"Um," I thought, "Smells Like Teen Spirit?"
"Yeah," she said, and as I started playing, she followed along. It was awesome. I so want to start a band.
Lilly and Mia finally arrived with a stack load of food.
"You didn't have to get all this," said Victoria. "I'll give you some money."
"No," said Lilly. "It's on me."
"Well thank you," said Victoria.
Victoria and I headed out to the pool area as Lilly and Mia were getting changed. I couldn't help but look at Victoria as she took her shirt and skirt off and stood there in a bikini. Friend or no friend, boyfriend or no boyfriend, she has a VERY nice body. Turning away from her, I pulled off my shirt and placed it down next to my towel.
"Damn boy," said Victoria laughing, as I headed towards her. "With that chest, you're up there with Josh!"
