Sorry for about two weeks without an update! I was waiting for a few more reviews but I guess it won't happen with Chapter 8, so I might as well post a new one!
CHAPTER 9
"Seeiah, will you marry me?" Jevonte asked, with the ring gleaming from the box as he held it up to Seeiah.
Seeiah was in shock. Nobody had ever loved her before; she had always been the black sheep of her family because, as you know, she's very weird. Even her own mother would tell her, "Fuck off, bitch!" when Seeiah would complain about her afro being too big, etc.
Jevonte waited patiently as Seeiah just stared at the little box. "So, are you gonna answer me, sweet thang?" He asked happily, throwing a dreadlock out of his face.
"I can't...I can't marry you...no." Seeiah said immediately, not making eye contact with Jevonte.
Jevonte didn't look shocked; he remained calm. He asked Seeiah slowly, "Why?"
"JEVONTE I CAN'T! I can't marry you, not now. I'm still young and don't want to settle down yet. Besides, we've only known each other for a fucking WEEK, man. And besides, I am a blossoming SSX competitor and I'm sure I'll be asked to be in the third season of the circuit. There's no way I could balance my extremely good career with yours and have this marriage work. Whoo! I rule!" Seeiah replied, looking up at Jevonte and giving a smile.
Not pleased with this outcome, Jevonte stood up from his kneel and took the ring out of the box. He put the ring in his pocket and threw the box at Seeiah, the box hitting Seeiah's cheek. She shrieked in pain as the box fell to the hotel carpet. "You fucking bitch! I can't believe you would reject ME! I had to cough up so much dough for this damn ring and you don't even care! Fine, ya know what? NEVER speak to me again, you selfish bitch! I never want to see you again, I have to go to the pawn shop before it closes and see if I can get some money for this ring. Go to hell, Seeiah." Jevonte said, enraged. Before Seeiah could reply, Jevonte stormed out of the room and slammed the door, leaving Seeiah on the floor.
Suddenly, Seeiah burst into tears on the carpet and spread herself out and started pounding on the floor. Zoe walked by the room in the hallway, seeing Jevonte storm out, and put her ear up against the door. "Damn, bitch is ALWAYS crying! Ugh, it looks like I'll have to be the sane one around here, as usual. Gonna spread some more bullshit advice, haha." Zoe said to herself with a smirk, and knocked at the door.
"I said I didn't want any!" Seeiah yelled from inside, between sobs. Zoe raised her eyebrows and laughed, confused. She pulled on the doorknob and let herself into the room, seeing Seeiah sprawled on the ground between the two beds.
"Seeiah, what's wrong? Did you and Jevonte get in a fight?" Zoe asked, helping Seeiah get up off of the floor.
Nodding, Seeiah wiped some of the tears from her eyes. "Yeah, he's gone. He asked me to marry him and I said no. He got all crazy and shit and just left, like it was that simple. And now I can never talk to him again..." She said, sighing.
"It's ok, everything will be fine. We'll be gone in a couple of days and you'll forget all about him. Everything will be back to racing and losing in Showoffs to Mac and Kaori. For you, anyways. Just kidding! Here, let's go to the lobby and I'll make you some tea." Zoe replied, as she grabbed Seeiah as the two of them left the room, with Seeiah popping a slight smile as they went into the hallway and closed the door.
Marisol was coming into the hallway and she saw Zoe and Seeiah walking towards the lobby. The two girls didn't make eye contact with Marisol, and Marisol's face slumped. She knew that Zoe was comforting Seeiah about something. "That's MY job! I can't let myself be replaced with that stupid white girl. I have to take action and get my best friend back." Marisol said to herself, sighing as she saw Zoe and Seeiah disappear from her sight.

The next morning, JP was sleeping soundly in his room. Luther had went to get an early breakfast or two, and had left the door open also in his rush. Elise was strutting by, with Eddie still sleeping in her room. She saw the open door and decided to wander in.
Seeing JP sound asleep in his bed, she leaned over him and kissed him on the cheek. But JP still was sleeping. She kissed him on the lips this time and backed away, waiting for him to stir. But he didn't. She said, "Fuck this." and she slapped him. JP immediately perked up from the bed and leaned forward. "What the hell was that?!" He asked, confused.
"Good morning, Arsenault. How the hell are ya? Tired? Tough shit. We got some bitches to kill! Get your best eyeshadow on and meet me down in the lobby in twenty minutes. If you're not there by then, I'm gonna be pissed. Don't mess with me." Elise said, smirking. She smiled at JP and then started to walk out of the room.
But she turned around and went back to JP in his bed, and kissed him again. They started to make out for a minute, until they heard a gasp from the open doorway. "What is going on in here?" They heard a voice say from the open door. Elise and JP stopped and turned around quickly to see Kaori standing in the doorway.
"Why were you just kissing each other?!" Kaori questioned them, scratching her head and smiling. Elise shook her head.
"Hell no, Kaori. We were kissing, yes. And you are to tell no one about what you just saw us doing. Not Mac-cun, not Brodi-san, not anyone. You pull that shit and I'll send your little ass back to China in three seconds flat, you got me?" Elise said powerfully, walking over to Kaori and slamming the door so nobody could hear the three of them.
Kaori shuttered for a moment and said, "Japan...not China, Elise-san. And I will not tell anyone...but why is it a secret?"
"It just has to be. Thank you for being trustworthy, madame. Have a nice day." JP said, getting out of his bed and standing next to Elise. Elise gave an evil smile, Kaori did her trademark wave and exited the room, giving them both strange looks as she closed the door.
"Honestly though, that little bitch better not breathe a word of this to anyone...nobody can know that I'm attracted to YOU, it'll ruin my reputation. Besides, we got some killing to do. Twenty minutes in the lobby. See you there." Elise said, not looking at JP and leaving the room.

Ten minutes later after this had happened, Derek was bringing up a coffee from the nearby café across the street for Marisol when he ran into Seeiah.
"Seeiah! Just the person I wanted to see." He exclaimed, throwing Seeiah a smile.
Seeiah raised her eyebrows. "Me? I thought you hated me. I don't have the time or the mood to deal with your shit today anyway, Derek. This conversation is over." She answered him, and began to walk away.
"Wait! No! Come back...I want to apologize." Derek yelled, a little nervously.
Psymon, who just emerged from his room and walked by, laughed and said, "Apologizing? Haha, what a loser! Oh, that reminds me...I still need to earn $900 to pay for those doors. Gotta win us some races, Mr. Tattoo!"
Derek looked at him strangely and just didn't say anything. Seeiah had just absorbed what Derek had said to her, so she zipped around and walked right over to him in the middle of the hallway.
"YOU want to apologize to ME? What's the catch, white boy?" Seeiah questioned him, tapping her platform shoes against the floor (the shoes made her taller than him).
Nodding, Derek replied, "Yeah. I was an asshole to you for no reason and it's not right of me to act like that anymore. I lied about Marisol being your friend out of pity, too. I only did that so I could have her all to myself and that's not right. She needs you as much as she needs me, so I take full responsibility for everything that has happened. Can you...forgive me for being such a jackass this whole time?"
Seeiah cracked a smile. "Hmmm..."
