Chapter 3 'Male' problems
Bang, and his eyes snapped open. Collin was flat on the floor, holding his head. Regretting that he'd ever opened them, he slowly closed his eyes. "Stanton? Are you okay?" 'No.' "Yeah." Collin said, and becoming brave, Stanton opened one eye, and he saw Collin trying to rise. "Why did you back up like that?" 'Because he doesn't want his body back enough to kiss his little sister.' "There's.an." Stanton opened his other eye, and looked at Collin urgently. Chris pointed his thumb at Collin, and said, "There's a hot follower he's attracted to." "WHAT!?" Stanton shouted, along with Serena, Collin, Derek, and Michael. Chris's eyes widened, as if he just realized what he said. Serena looked up at Collin desperately. "Is that true?" Collin looked over Serena's head at Stanton for help, and he shook his head quickly. Trying to regain composure, Collin shifted, and said, "I don't really understand what Chris is talking about. There's only one new follower as of late, and she's about twelve." Stanton sighed thankfully, but as he tried to suck in air to compensate for his sigh, warm lips crushed his mouth. "Ready?" Jimena asked him. After a moments surprise, he nodded. "I need to speak with Stanton for a minute. You guys too." He added, indicating Derek and Michael. Jimena nodded, and took her Indian purse off the desk, and she followed Serena out. "Where're the others?" Derek asked. "They're in the kitchen. We'll wait for you there." Stanton smiled at Jimena, but when she was out of sight, he whirled around. "Why didn't you tell us you had a date today?" Collin blushed, then scratched the back of his head. "We don't." Stanton's brows pinched, and worry began to stir. "We.wanted to go to a.drugstore." Groaning, Stanton said, "Can't she shop for female products on her own?" The red darkening, Collin said, "Actually.it's.more of a.male product." He looked up, hoping the others would understand. Stanton's eyes widened. "Male," he managed. Everyone knew what he meant, and everyone knew the next problem. "Okay.when is this.?" Removing his hand, Collin cleared his throat, and said, "Well.um.it's not for us." Stanton let out a sigh of relief, but it was caught in his throat when suddenly Collin said, "Serena wanted one." Fear caught in Stanton's throat, and he found himself on the black leather couch, knocked off his feet with surprise. Since when did Serena.? "Why would you get her something like that?" Collin rolled the blue eyes that Stanton longed to get back.
In fact, he wanted everything back. His life, pathetic as it was; his real girlfriend, especially the way she was feeling now; his body; everything. So, Serena was ready. Even though this was no time to be amused, he felt a little smile creep onto his lips. Cassandra would take either Collin, or himself, and Serena had no choice but to take Collin. His smile widened as a plan began to seep into his mind. "I'll go. But whoever's buying is going to be playing double." "Why?" Collin asked. Stanton grinned. "I don't think little Cassandra wants to be pregnant."
