We both stepped out of Xerxes's car. "Sea."-Nothing but shock was in his voice.-"You l-live..h-he-here?!"
My cheeks blushed in embarrassment. "Yeah..." Not because of my family or our living condition. No, I'll never be embarrass about my family, never. I was blue because now Xerxes knew why I wanted the maid job. No seventeen old girl would take a job as a maid. Sure, the wages was high and all. But living in a mansion with 16 guys? Unless you're a slut, you'll actually love that.
His next words sting me the most, "So...this is why you took the job."
I nodded, what can I do?
"Sea."-Pity. Xerxes's words were in pity. I hate those words, plain hate.-"If you needed money, you could just asked me." And now...more pity...
I laughed with fake, "I don't need your pity." My words sounded like I was a bitch. I despise acting like a bitch. I hate having people's pity more, though. "I don't care about money. I just need it to help my family. First comes family, then me, then education." Chill Sea, don't let your blood boil.
"I wasn't doing it out of pity! DAMNIT!" The wooden door of my house slammed opened, Xerxes's and I ignored it though. "If you needed money, I'll give. You don't have to be a maid for us man whores. I care, ok?! I'm sorry if you think I'm doing it out of pity. But trust me, I'm not. Is it my fucking fault care about you?!"
"No, I'm work, trust me...I'm sorry." -I sighed with tiredness.- "I'm so sick and tired of people's pities."
He tight me into a hug, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to higher my voice at you."
"...Xerxes...? Is that you?"
"Stell?" Their dark brown eyes met each others in a spark. Xerxes's eyes was with sadness and guilt. "It's been a while..."
Stell's eyes harden with anger, "Not long enough."

*Ding Dong*
The wooden mansion-like doors opened, revealing a brunette lady at the door. "Hel-Hello?" Her voice was filled with scariness and grieve. She had a model quality and Barbie likeness. Expect, a Barbie that had been used wrongly. The lady had the same black eyes as Luke. The only difference though, her eyes were soft and delicate.
Now, try your best lady voice. "Hello, Mrs. Karam, can we talk about Luke...?"
"L-Luke!" Her body started to shake in fright, why? "Oh, dear..." She held her right hand and began biting her nails. "You HAVE to go, dear. It's not safe...he might come back soon. And-"
"And what...?!" All of a sudden my hands griped on her shoulders. Shaking her, shaking, making her to spit it out. "Please, tell me. I'm sick and tired of not knowing. I NEED to know."
The poor black eyes of hers held sadness. "Danger! He might come back home really soon...You're in danger soon dear, please go. Please, GO!"
I'm loosing my tempter, blood rushing. In my head, I wanted answers. I need my answers, soon, I'm about to lose it. "I WANT TO KNOW!"
There were steps behind me before cold breathing on my neck. The person's lips were close to my ears. Whoever it was, it scared the heck out of Mrs. Karam. "What do you want to know...Little Queen?"

Dylan's POV.
When your, standing in the hall of fame
And the world's gonna know your name
Cause you burn with the brightest flame
And the world's gonna know your name
And you'll be on the walls of the hall of fame
Be a champion, Be a champion, Be a champion, Be a champion
Shit, my phone! Who would call me a time like this? I mean, seriously, it's in the middle of practice! This fucking ass person better have a good reason to call me... "What do you want?!"
There was sounds of 'TSKing' on the other side of the people. "Oh, Dylan...My own baby that I gave birth to. What happened?"
"Well," I began 'thinking', "you became a bitch." I snapped at my own mother, yes, 'mother'.
"Be that way then...You're so not getting your inheritance." My mother's voice was still cold as a snake. Maybe, even turning green from always being with her money husband.
I gave into her, for once. "Fine...what do you what?" Stuck it up Dylan, remember money. Millions.
"Who am I?"
Forcing myself to fake a smile and happy tone. "What do you want, my lovely mother?"
"That's better," Even though I can't see her, I bet she was enjoying this. "Listen to me you little pain in the ass. I'm coming to town soon, you suck up my ass then. Two words: Inheritance Money. Tell your better younger brothers that I'm coming to town." Relax, Dylan... "Remember in order to get part of the money-"
I interrupted her and bit my lip not to curse. "Of course I remember, mother."
Her cold, toneless voice came back to line. "Good. You better show me the best girlfriend, you ever wished for." After that, the call line went dead. SHIT! I threw my cell across the football field. Where the hell am I suppose to get that type of girlfriend?! The one my own 'mother' would like...?!
That's it, maids do everything told.
Even the messed up requests.
"Sea," Luke's voice was low and hollow, "What are you doing here." His word 'here' was pinched and sounded he was trying to hold back.
I took a step away from him, closer to Mrs. Karam. "Just...asking your mom. Ab-About, er-, when we could work together." Man, my lying was getting horrible. I can tell, Luke knew it also.
"Little Queen..." A scowl was growing on his face, a frightening one. He took a step closer and I took one back. "Once again, what do you want to know about." I can tell he was trying to hide his scowl, but it was too late.
"I. Told. You. Already." Bitch mode, was on. "I was just asking your mom when we could work together. And you actually think, I would lie?!" It's kinda weird that I'm only good at lying, if I wanted to sound like a dog. I added a fake gasp, just as an bonus. "You have some nerve...You know what! I'm leaving!" My heels took over my body as I started to 'fake' walk back to the car.
Move along, Sea. "W-...Wait!" There were heavy steps coming my way. I put on a blank expression face before turning around. "Little Queen, I'm...sorry. Just come inside, I'll make it up to you." He gave his right hand onto the side of my back. His hand was pushing me back to the door steps. Mrs. Karam quickly walk away, not to block the door.
Once and for all, I'll find out. Myself.

Dylan's POV.
Shit. Shit. Shit. She'll never agree to this...Never.
I hate to admit it, but I need Sea's help. I hate getting people's help even at anything. Asking for help only means your weak. I'm not fucking weak, I've changed. Relax, Dylan, you're the top dog at school. You're not that wimpy kid always being bullied by jackasses. You're not. The past is the past, used to and now you're better.
Don't think about Aria, your first girlfriend that cheated on you....Don't. You are fucking rich, and now you'll be a millionaire. The only thing you need, is Sea's help. Who knew, the girl you thought was only a weakling....You'll need help from her. This universe is fucking as messed up, like your motherfucker. Why are you so scared to ask her?
She's just a maid, your own maid. FUCK. I'm turning into a dumb ass, you're in charge.
Tonight, ask-no-make her be your fake girlfriend.
When your, standing in the hall of fame
And the world's gonna know your name
Cause you burn with the brightest flame
And the world's gonna know your name
And you'll be on the walls of the hall of fame
Be a champion, Be a champion, Be a champion, Be a champion
I tried my best to kept my eyes on the road, while getting my phone. I tapped on the green 'answer' button on the screen. The name title said, 'Mexican Taco-lovin' Dude.' Which a.k.a on my weird nicknames for the guys, was Xerxes. "What do you want, dude?"
"DYLAN." His voice was nervous and worried. "Do you...Do you-"
"Spit it out dude, I'm driving. Do you know what the cops would think about me again?" I questioned him, "They wouldn't think, they'll just lock me up again. Until, you guys bail me out. Fuck...I'm already on their 'Speeders' list with Aiko." If you're on the list, you're in deep shit.
"Shut up, you sound like my dad!" The line went silent for a bit and Xerxes came back. "It's Sea...she went to Luke. Again"
That fucking stubborn ass maid!

Sea's POV.
"Do you want anything...?" Luke asked me as he sat me down to a chair. Damn, his house was gigantic as a mansion. There were white pillars around his entire living room. A 90" inch flat plasma T.V. only took an inch of his living room. Staring at the ceiling was like an endless sky. I could be living in heaven right now. Hell, there was even a chocolate fountain in the middle of the room. "I can get you cotton candy if you want." That's when my ears pierced at the word of 'Cotton Candy.'
"YES...PLEASE."
"Whoa." Luke started, "Calm down Sea. And wipe your mouth, you're drooling." My cheeks redden, I wipe away the waterfall of the sides of my mother. "I'm coming right back..." Was his last words before jogging up the numerous stairs to the kitchen.
The only thing I could heard was breathing breaths. They were uneven and loud. Like breathing though your nose when you're upset. "Miss Shore, you are a very stubborn child." My head turned to Luke's mom, boy, she was PISSED. I gave her a shyly grin and in my head I was thinking, 'Sorry ma'am, it's in my blood.' I didn't say it out loud though, too rude.
She took a quick sigh, "Oh dear...You don't know what's in store for you." Store? For me? I absolutely wanted to shout at her: That's why I'm here! I want my fucking answers!
"Please, Go. Away, far from here, far away from my son." I wanted to know the reason why... Why does everyone hate
