Hey, so first thanks for all the reviews! Second, anyone that ever saw the anime I jus want you guys to know that it's not going to be exact at all, in fact the plot is basically the only thing I'm using. The whole thing with her moving in, and how they fall in love but the whole thing with the main girl becoming a nurse I'm not doing. Just wanted to let you know!

Chapter 4: Interesting discoveries equal blackmail

It's been 2 months since I moved in. Everything is very homy now. Melanie has become like a mother to me, Sammy like the younger brother I've never had, and Brandon….I'm definitely more comfortable around him.

It's only a few weeks until finals, and I'm in big trouble. Whenever I try to study, I always get distracted.

I sat in my room using my textbook at a pillow and watching SNL on tv.

"Stella?" I heard with a knock on my door

"Oh…Ummm…hold on one second!" I called

I quickly turned the tv off and put my textbook in front of me.

"Come in" I called

Melanie entered.

"Hi sweety, just checking in, you've been in here for at least 3 hours straight, don't strain yourself" Melanie said

"Oh…don't worry, I'm just really into studying!" I said

"What are you studying?" She asked looking down

"Oh just a little..trigometry" I said

"Stella…do you mean, trigonometry?" Melanie asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Duh! That's what I said" I said with an embarrassed smile.

Melony smiled

"Why don't you just go ask Brandon for some help? I've been told he's the best in his class" Melanie said

I laughed

"More like a world class jerk" I said

"What do you know, I've been told that too" Melony said

We laughed together

"And besides, he'd never do anything for me" I told her

"He might" Melanie said, an evil glint in her eyes

"Melanie, I know that look" I said

"I'll be right back!" She said with a clap of happiness

She ran out like there was no tomorrow. I could hear her stomping up and down the stairs, as if running away from a predator or something. After a few seconds I heard her scurry back up the stairs and she ran straight to my room. When she entered, she was huffing and there was a small square object in her hands. She was clutching it to her chest, as if it were vital information or something.

"Alright Stella, what I'm about to show you may never, and I mean EVER leave this room to ANYBODY besides Brandon" Melanie said

I put my hand up, intrigued.

"I swear" I said

She took a breath then handed it over to me….it was a photo album.

"A photo album? Melanie I don't get wh…"

"Just open it" Melanie said, a smile playing at her lips.

I shrugged, opening up the fist page. There were pictures of a little girl in the photo album. The little girl wore lots of frilly dresses. I flipped through more of the pages…all of the pictures had the same girl in it.

"Melanie! I thought you said you never had a daughter!" I screamed

"Oh, I didn't. That, my dear Stella, is our fairest Brandon" Melanie said

My mouth shot open, and I couldn't control myself. I started cracking up.

"That's…that's…holy freakin crap!" I screamed falling off my bed, and clutching my stomach in pain as I laughed harder and harder.

"Yup" Melanie said, covering her mouth, holding back laughter

"Why? How? But he's a girl!" I screamed still laughing

Melanie ran over to me and covered my mouth.

"I know, I know. But keep it down! I don't want Sammy to know!" Melanie said

I nodded, getting up.

"Okay, okay, now explain please" I said

"Well, when I was pregnant with Brandon, I was expecting a girl. I made tons of clothing hand made. When he was born, I figured, why waist all of my hard work?" Melanie said

"So you dressed him like a girl?" I asked astounded

"Bingo" Melanie said

"Holy freakin crap" I repeated, my eyes growing wide

"So, if you ever need to…persuade Brandon to do something…" Melanie said sliding a picture over to me

I smiled

"I will guard this with my life" I said

Melanie laughed picking up the photo album and walking to the door.

"Have funnnn" Melanie sang on her way out

I looked down at the picture of cute little Brandina. Oh this is priceless! This is just…wow I'm going to have fun with this.

The next day was Thursday, meaning I only had 2 weeks left until finals.

"Stella, what are you going to do?" Layla asked

The 6 of us were sitting at our lunch table.

"Well, if Bloom could just tutor me.."

"Stella, I would if I could, but I'm already tutoring Layla and Flora" Bloom said apologetically

I sighed

"So what AM I going to do?" I said

Musa put her hand on my shoulder.

"No, come on Stella. You can do this! For Ms. Hudson!" Musa said

I looked up at her.

"Do you have any idea how hard it is to study? Especially now that the next season of Gossip Girl started" I said

They all laughed

"Ill tell you what Stella. What if..what if I do it with you?" Musa said

We all turned to her, our mouths open.

"What? If Stella can do it, why cant I? Tecna, you're my tutor" Musa said

Tecna smiled

"Alright, you got a deal Musa" Tecna said

"Hey wait! I need a tutor!" I screamed

"Sorry Stell, Musa asked first" Tecna said

I banged my head on the table, until suddenly, an idea came to my head.

"I know what I'm going to do" I said, my eyes growing wide

"What?" They all asked

"I'll be right back! I've got a plan!" I screamed getting up

"Wait Stella, you're plans usually back fire. I don't know if this is the BEST idea" Flora said

"Believe me Flo, I got this one!" I screamed.

I began to walk toward the popular kids table.

"What the hell is she doing?" Musa asked, her eyes growing wide

"I think…I think she's going to talk to…" Bloom began

"Brandon" They all said at the same time

I walked over to my new housemate, who sat with all of his friends.

"Alright pretty boy, get up" I said when I saw him

He raised an eyebrow, his friends chuckling a bit.

"Excuse me?" he asked

"You heard me, get up. You're tutoring me" I said, a smile on my face

"Oh no I'm not" Brandon said

"Oh yes you are" I said back

"And what makes you think I'd say yes?" Brandon asked

I smirked, an evil glint in my eye.

I whispered something in his ear. As I talked Brandon's eyes growing wide, and anger filling him.

"You wouldn't" He huffed angrily

"Try me" I said, crossing my arms

His friends began to ooooooo.

"Alright fine! I'll tutor you!" He screamed

Everybody gasped

"Yes! I..I mean..nice doing business with you" I said seriously putting my hand out for a shake

"Just get your books" Brandon huffed as he made his way to the library.

Later after school, I was sitting with Brandon in his room, studying. I took in so much information, I think my brain might explode.

"Come on Stella, no dozing off. What's the answer to this question?" Brandon asked

"Abraham Lincoln?" I said, but it came out as more of a question

"You know, that's kind of funny…considering we're doing Math!" Brandon said, screaming out the last part.

"I'm never going to get this!" I screamed sadly, banging my head inside my book.

"Okay Stella, we're going to break this down in a way you might understand" Brandon said

I looked up at him
"Alright, you buy 987 chocolate bars for 1,150 dollars, with tax.. You're friend Layla decides she wants to spend 200 dollars on chocolate, without tax. How many chocolate bars did she buy?" Brandon asked

I began to think in my head, then took a piece of paper out and began to write on it.

"Let's see, carry the 9, 24…and I get…457 chocolate bars?" I screamed

"YES!" Brandon screamed throwing the book up.

"I did it!" I screamed doing a happy dance

"Any questions?" Brandon asked, still a little hyped up that I got it

"Can we stop for tonight?" I asked happily

"Hell no!" Brandon screamed

I said down sadly

" I was expecting that" I said

"Good, now let's finish the other 27 other problems" Brandon said

I groan loudly, hitting my head on the table.

Suddenly,

Ding, Dong!

The doorbell rang, making Brandon get up to get it.

"Saved by the bell!" I said smiling

I waited a few minutes for him to come back in.

"Yeah you guys, of course we can go into my room!" Brandon screamed loudly, kicking the door nonchalantly

My eyes flew open.

"Oh my god! Oh my god!" I screamed whispered, looking around his room for he guys sat down on a couch, except one got on the bed. When he got on the bed sank in, pushing me into the ground.

"Hey, you guys see that Layla girl today?" The guy on the bed said

"I hear that one Nabu, she is smoking" One of the guys on the couch said

"Please Riven, you got your eyes on that Musa chick. You like bad girls, don't you?" The guy named Nabu said

Oh this is rich! Apparently Nabu and Riven, the football players find Layla and Musa hot! Layla and Musa! My Layla and Musa!

"I think I'll ask her out" Nabu said

"I already called dibs" One guy said

"Sky, can you just keep on one girl. You can take Bloom" Helia said

"Fine, you can have her. I was just gonna mess around with her ayways" Nabu said

That little piece of scum! Oh I'm gonna have a word with him! I punched the bed underneath him, causing him to pop up.

"Woah! Holy crap, what was that!" Nabu said as he was knocked off the bed. It took all my will power not to laugh.

"Massager!" Brandon screamed

"What?" Timmy asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yup, a massager, coach told me to get one so I can play to my greatest extent" Brandon said making it up on the spot

The guys nodded

These guys talked for the next hour about sports, and girls! And I thought I was the stupid one! Jeez, can they be any more girly?

"Let's head out back. Throw the ball around a little" Brandon said

"Good idea. Better get ready for tomorrow's game" Helia said

They all got up, leaving the room. On Nabu's way out, he stepped on my finger! I inwardly screamed. The things I'm going to do to him! Yup, he's definitely on my hit list!

When they were out of sight, I quietly crawled out from under the bed.

"The things I do for that boy" I mumbled, wiping off all the dust from my pants.

Sorry, for the late update, and the short chapter. I really am! Expect another chapter tomorrow or Sunday. Hope you enjoyed!
