Hey Guys I'm back! Did you miss me? :)

I know some of you think that it wasn't much of a break since a lot of other FF writers take well over a week or two to update, but I really like updating and carrying on my stories, and also reading your reviews:) So that's why I try to update quickly:D

Anyway I have planned how I want the story to go, so I won't waffle on (I love saying that... Waffle on... hahaha) Trying to think of where i'm taking it.

Sorry for not doing anyone else's POV'S in the other chapter but I find it easier writing in Claire's.

As always I hope you enjoy the chapter:)

DISCLAIMER: Rachel Caine own's all.

Chapter 15

SHANE'S POV:

"Are you gonna ask her or are you gonna be a chicken?" Lee asked me. Me, Michael and Lee were sat on the couch playing Lee's new zombie game, which I had forgotten the name of. Lee and Michael were currently playing. It was co-op so they played as a team, which was lucky for Michael because Lee is epic at video games.

"What?" I asked confused. Ask who, what?

"Claire. Are you gonna ask her out or not?"

"Ohh... umm... I don't know..."

"Is it because..." He didn't finish his sentence because Michael was in the room.

"No!" The fact that she was a vampire didn't bother me. Honestly I thought it was awesome. A little creepy, but still awesome. I'm glad she doesn't drink blood straight from the source, or drink from humans. Everything about Claire was awesome, and beautiful. I wasn't sure about asking her because I don't think she feels the same way, that I do about her. I don't like rejection.

"What?" Michael asks.

"He means... the goth thing" I lied. It sounded like a pretty good cover up.

"Oh... well I think you should. She's cool as a goth and plus if it does bother you, I think it is just a phase. She's not wearing black lipstick and stuff as much anymore"

"Alright" I began, but I had an idea "If... you ask Eve"

"What?" Michael said and looked at me. Just then a zombie bit his character "Fuck!" Michael then paused the game and turned to face me again. "Ask Eve?" He questioned. I smiled evily.

"Stop lying Michael, we all know you like her... Well except Eve"

"I never said I didn't... and she doesn't like me so what's the point? Just get laughed at and standing there like an idiot? No thanks, man"

"Oh fuck off Mike!" Lee said while laughing "Like she'd say no! Have you taken a look at yourself lately? Your a fucking musican! Girls dig that! Your a chic magnet! I've seen how everyone looks at you when you walk into a room!" He said between his laughs.

"What? Girl's don't look at me"

"Yes they do!" I told him "God, how do you not notice?"

"I-I... I just... I just thought it was because I was with the populars so they felt threatened" He replied really confused. Man he was clueless.

"Threatened? Of you? Please! Your like a carebear! They all love you! They just don't understand why you hang around with us! Your too nice!"

"I'm not a carebear!" He said annoyed.

"Look carebear" Lee said "I mean Mike, If you somehow get the courage which I know you have somewhere, then ask Eve out. We all know you want to. All then Shane will. Which he obviously wants to. And I know they will both say yes. So then you both have your girls and everyone's happy. Yay" I was about to agree when we heard a voice boom from the front door.

"SUP LADIES!" Man. Why did Liam have to come home? He entered the livingroom with a smirk "Hey Collins, I heard you dumped Mon. What the hell is wrong with you? Fell for a goth? God your a pussy!" He laughed. I got up and went over to him and punched him in the jaw. He wasn't excepting it and fell to the door. He might be bigger then me, but in no way is he stronger.

"I've been wanting to do that since we first met. I chucked Mon because she's a bitch, and it's none of your fucking business if I like Claire. Now piss off upstairs before I really hurt you!". He looked surprised and got to his feet.

"Whatever dick" he said casually and went upstairs.

CLAIRE'S POV:

Me, Eve and Alice went upstairs to my room when the skanks finally stopped attacking me. I fell on my bed and grabbed the remote for the stereo which was at the end of the bed. I turned on the power and pressed play. "Crush Crush Crush" by Paramore started playing. They were my favourite band, As you can probably tell.

"God I swear, I really wanted to pull Monica's head off!" Eve moaned as she sat on my spinny chair. Alice sat at the head of the bed.

"Well she's already like a barbie doll, so it kinda makes sense" I replied.

"They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies, you little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies, you little spies" I sung.

"If she's not carefully, invites will be sent out for her funeral" Alice finally spoke. I laughed and soon they both joined me. Thank God we were happy again. I didn't like it when Alice was in a mood, she brought me down.

"Do you think Michael likes me?" Eve asked when we our laughter died down. We looked at her with wide eyes.

"Of course!" Alice said like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Which it kind of was.

"Eve, it's obvious. He looks at you like he want's to marry you or something!" I added.

"Really?" Eve asked shocked.

"Duh!" Me and Al said at the same thing.

"If you want to play it like a game
Well come on, come on let's play
Cause I'd rather wasted my life pretending
Then have to forget you for one whole minute" I sung again. It was a habit. If there's a good song playing I have to sing.

"I ever knew" Eve said looking at her clasped hands like they had the answers to the world.

"Sweetie, if I know anything, it's boys. And I can say for certain, he like's you" Alice told her.

"But... why doesn't he ask me?"

"Boy's mind's are a complex thing. We could study them for years and still not understand them. Men..." She began.

"... Are from Mars" I finished smiling.

"Yep!" She smiled at me like she was a teacher and I was a pupil which answered correctly.

"I wish I was a Marshan" (Don't know how you spell it) Eve said with a sigh. We all laughed again.

I know it seems like nothing is happening but I'm building up to the good stuff! Sorry it's taking a while!

R&R!
