QUICK SUMMARY: Tori and Hunter's ex meet for the first time. Will things start getting ugly?
"Meet The Ex""Man, Hunter's ex is fine!" Shane whispers silently to Dustin and Cam as they watched the high school sweethearts have they're little talk. "I can't believe he broke up with her."
"Uh, correction." Dustin began mocking him. "She broke up with him."
Shane nods his head. "Whatever, dude. She's fine! Just look at those slamming' curves." He looks on and scratches his head. "I wonder what they are talking about."
"Like that's any of your business." Cam splutters out. Shane gives him a funny look as they continued to watch on in curiosity.
"Wow." Natalie giggles, staring at Hunter in disbelief. "It's been awhile and you look great."
He looks down at himself and grins. "Well, thank you. So do you, but much different than before. I hardly recognized you."
She arches her eyebrows. "Oh really?" She looks at him and smirks. "Is that a bad thing?"
"No. No." Hunter chuckles. "You look even more beautiful than the last time I saw you. To be honest."
Natalie looks away in pleased embarrassment. "Thank you, Hunter." There was a sudden awkward of silence. Hunter and Natalie exchanged looks for a while and just smiled. "So..." She clears out her throat. "I see you're having a barbeque." Natalie observed from across the street.
"Oh yeah." Hunter scratches the back of his neck. "Care to join us?" He asks with a smile. "I mean...you're going to need the energy before unpacking and getting comfortable here."
"Yeah!" Shane suddenly jumps in. "You got to try some of my famous chicken barbeque wings." He puts his arm around her. "Oh and I'm Shane by the way."
"And I'm Cam. The intelligent one." He says, standing on the other side of her. Shane rolls his eyes.
Natalie chuckles. "Nice to meet you, both. And yes, I would love to join you all."
"Alright." The guys said in unison.
Meanwhile, from across the street, Marah and Kapri watched on in disgust as the long brown haired woman came walking towards their direction with the guys. "There's something about her that I don't like." The pink head nodded in dismay. "But I can't exactly point it out."
Marah looks on." What are they doing?"
"Obviously giving the girl a free invitation." Kapri stated with an attitude as Tori came walking out of the house.
"Hey." The blonde suddenly stood next to them after coming out from the shower and putting on clean clothes. "What's going on?"
Marah shrug. "New girl in town."
Tori looks straight ahead as the guys came walking towards them with an attractive looking woman by their side. She gazed on and smiles. "Oh yay. It must be her."
Marah and Kapri exchange looks. "Her? What her?"
"Oh...a friend of mine told me that she has a cousin that is looking for a house so I hook her up across from me since no one's living in that place for months now." Tori stated with a nod.
"Oh?" Marah raised an eyebrow. "That's great I guess." She sighs.
Tori gives her an odd look. "What's with the face?"
She pursed her lips and frowns. "Look at her. She's gorgeous and Dustin is drooling all over her from what I'm seeing."
The blonde turns around and chuckles. "Oh my God. You're jealous!"
"Well, so. Aren't you?" She asks.
Tori smiles. "No, of course not and why should I be?" Marah just shrugs. "Look, Dustin really cares about you. I've known him since we were pretty young and he's not stupid as some people think he is. He would never let you go over some pretty face. And I know that because Dustin really loves you. He talks a lot about you and I know how lucky you guys are to have each other. Trust me on this."
Marah bit her lip and smiles at the touching words Tori had just said. It definitely made her feel so much better. "Thanks, girl. You're the best."
"No problem." She winks.
"Hey, Tor." Shane walks up to her with the others behind as the girls all look up. "You don't mind if your new neighbor crash with us right?"
The blonde chuckles, "Of course not."
"Alright." He smiles.
The long brown haired approaches the blonde and smiles. "You must be Tori. I'm Natalie." The two shook hands. "Thanks a lot for helping me out. I'm already loving it here."
She smiles. "You're always welcome."
"Wait a minute." Hunter pauses. "You two know each other?"
Tori nods her head is dismay. "Well no. Not really. She's just related to a friend of mine."
"Oh..." He wrinkles his forehead. "Talk about coincidence."
Tori raised an eyebrow. "Why? Do you guys know each other?"
All the guys exchange looks. "Uh oh." Dustin mumbles silently to himself. This should be interesting, Shane thought.
"Well uhh..." Hunter began stuttering nervously as he rubs his eyes. "Tor, this is my ex, Natalie." He finally says. Marah and Kapri gasp in surprise. "You know...my first girlfriend that you heard about."
"No way!" The pink head blurts out exaggeratedly. Cam nudges her shoulder to shush up. "Oh. Sorry." She hisses. "Go on."
Tori stares at Hunter blankly. "Oh wow." She lets out a small chuckle. "What a surprise."
"Yeah..." He stuffs his hands into his pockets. "Weird huh?"
Natalie exchange looks with them. "What is?" She asks in curiosity.
Hunter smiles as he puts his arm around the blonde's waist. "Tori is my girlfriend. Yesterday was our 6 month anniversary."
Natalie turns her head and stares at the blonde. "Oh. Is that so?" She suddenly felt her heart and high hopes drop.
Tori smiles. "Yeah."
She arches her eyebrows. "Well, I'm glad you found happiness once again, Hunter."
He smiles. "Thank you. We're both happy."
"I can see that." Natalie forced a smile as she watches the couple laugh and touch noses with each other. From behind, Marah notices the cold jealous raged coming from the brown head's devilish eyes as she began to feel a twinge of concern and uncertainty towards Natalie. At that moment, Marah knew the girl was up to something. Is she?
