Thanks to all who are reading, I'm writing as fast as I can. Again, Sparklies to all good reviews! In this chapter I'll try to explain the characters personalities a bit more.
Ella's P.O.V.
It was four p.m. and I was sitting on Natalie's bed painting my nails. Black with clear sparkles over it.
She was lying on the floor thinking when her cell phone rang. "You're my obsession, my fetish, my religion."
She picked up the phone. 'Hello? Hi, Bill!" "You gave him your number?" I hissed.
She hardly knew him, what if he was a stalker? She continued talking.
"Yeah. What street do you live on? Oh, okay. 491 Elton street. See ya." "Did you just invite them over?"
I half-yelled.
"Yeah. Both of them." Oh, god. I thought. He's such a pervert, and Bill told Nat that he'd been with that Chrissy girl for a while and was pretty attached.
Ten minutes later we heard a car pull up and footsteps clomping up the stairs.
Tom's P.O.V.
Bill dragged me to Natalie's house with him so it wouldn't look weird. God forbid it seem like he'd been doing something alone with a girl.
We drove up and let ourselves in. I had to hold on to my pants while running up the stairs.
It wasn't hard to know which room was Natalie's, her door had Yu-Ghi-oh cards taped to it.
I stepped in after Bill had said Hi and plopped to the floor by Natalie.
My jaw dropped when I saw Ella sitting on the bed.
The look of annoyance on her face when I walked in spoke volumes.
General P.O.V.
Bill sat on the floor against the wall chattering away with Natalie and trying, unsuccessfully to talk to Ella.
Tom stood awkwardly by the door, silent.
But it did get… less awkward. They talked for a while then went outside to play basketball, boys against girls.(He and Bill won, barely.)
They all got in the car and went to find a movie, returning with Splice.
Ella thought Dren was prettier than the scientist, and by the end of the movie, Natalie was leaning against Bill, tired.
Natalie's P.O.V.
The movie wasn't really scary, but I snuggled up against Bill's shoulder anyway.
At first he looked a little shocked, somewhat awkward but then smiled.
I normally don't think of boys as hugely important, but something about Bill just made me need him.
Bill's P.O.V.
Nat leaned her head on my shoulder and startled me.
Should I be this close to a girl so quick after breaking up with Chance?
She'd been my girlfriend since freshman year and I'd cried myself to sleep when she said she didn't want a long distance relationship, leaving me.
Okay, thank-you for reading this far. And thanks, Chrissy for reviewing. :D
So glad it's summer break, I've got loads more time to write, and this story's coming along well. Once more, Sparklies to all reviewers!
