"Hey, here's your cotton candy." Mrs. Karam and my head lifted to see Luke. He was hold a blue and pink cotton candy in both of his hands. Luke quickly gave me the blue one, "Here. I know you hate the color pink." I rushed a "Thanks" and pigged into the sweet cotton candy.
A embarrassing moan escaped from my lips. Stupid cotton candy, look what you did! "What can I do to make it up to you, Luke?"
Luke had pleading glint in his eyes, "Go on a date with me on the 20th."
I know I'm fighting fire with fire, and sooner-or-later will be burnt. If this is what it takes to get an answer, I'll do it. Only one reason: I'm way top stubborn to listen to instructions.
"Sure, sounds like a plan."
Chapter 22
I'm so screwed and I know it. What the hell, just door bell the doors. Just do it, Sea, it's not that bad. They'll just yell and shout at you, then murder you. My fingers tremble as I ringed the door bells. Is it me, or the regular 'Ding Dong' was like a scream saying, "RUN! You're dead if they open the doors!" Look at that...the doors opened. Saying in front of the doors was Alvin, who had a amused look on his face. "Well, look that that, the rat's back." Oh, he's definitely on my invisible 'I have to murder' list.
My mind took over my mouth, once again. "Oh, shut up and stop blocking the doors."
Alvin's eyes narrow, "You better watch your mouth here! I'm in charge of you, and you have to obey to me."
What was Dylan's rules to be a maid here...? Well, look at that, I forgot. So that means I don't have obey to that rule. "Do I look like I give a stinking crap?!" I shoved him, so he won't block the doors. "I said MOVE and that means to getting out of my fucking way!" Alvin is pissing me out, as in Dylan pissing me out.
He fell to the floors, HA! A slight cocky 'HMPH' escaped his mouth, "The rat turned into a cat." Your line had just slipped Alvin, I hate cats!
You know what I did....I kicked him on the balls. He screamed with pain. "I HATE CATS!"
Someone interrupted me, "And I hate maids that don't listen to me." That voice...shit to the shit, Dylan. His blue eyes were darker, way darker, and he looked like he could kill someone. The someone meaning me. "You know what this means...?"
I shook my head, "You're going to let me off the hook?"
"No..." He took a step closer to me, closer, and closer. "Punishment." Dylan took his hand on my chin and kissed me. Wait...what? AGAIN?! The kiss only lasted for 7 seconds. Then moved his face away, leaving me speechless. How was that a punishment?! "Got any plans on November 20th?"
I nodded my head slowly. My date with Luke, but why would I say that? "Y-Yeah..."
"Oh, too bad." Dylan said straightly and started to walk away. "Cancel them and go on a date with me." With that he left me alone, with Alvin still on the floor.
My head turned onto Alvin on the bare tiles. "You didn't see anything...Did you?"
"What do you think?!"

That night I kept thinking about one word: Date. What would a 17 year old girl do if she went on a date? Be happy and excited would be a answer. But what if the girl had to choose from two? I seriously need to quit this job soon, too bad I'm enjoying it. I could hear a loud sounds of thunder boomed from outside. I wasn't scared but my door magically opening, made me want to pee. The darkness in my room wouldn't let me see in the dark. My mind was telling me just to stay in bed.
"Sea...are you awake?" A bright and tiny mob of blonde hair was the only thing I could see.
"Yeah."
My vision finally merge out the person, Carter. "Can I sleep with you tonight? I'm scarred." I nodded to Carter and he quickly wobbled to my bed. The bed was pretty high, causing Carter jumping to the top. Once on my bed, he pulled the bed covers over him. "I'm sorry, I couldn't find my teddy anywhere and I'm scarred of thunder."
I sleepy grin at him, "It's okay kiddo, I can be your thunder buddy tonight." My head was thinking about the movie Ted when I said that.
"Nighty night, thunder buddy." Carter's eyes fell closed shut as he hugging me. How can a 6 six year old be this this adorable?! "Oh, and I love that movie also."
"Oh, too bad." Dylan said straightly and started to walk away. "Cancel them and go on a date with me."
That event was stuck on my mind...Date. There has to be a reason why he's asking me out. Well, not really asking me out, more like ordering and forcing to go. Why? On the entire Earth, no guy like him would go out with a girl like me..
There's a reason and I just know it.
I was still asleep till I felt something heavy on my stomach. My eyes opened to a small leg on my tummy, Carter's leg. Carter looked adorable...even if he was about to fall off the bed. First I, no I didn't kick Carter off of me. Too mean...I simply adjusted his fragile body but to a wide side of my bed. I won't let a fall kid fall off a stinking bed. Carter's leg finally came back to his side, man, it was heavy! There was a light knock on my door and it opened.
"Hey, Sea have you see-" James paused his talking and his eyes landed on Carter. "Dylan, I found your younger twin!"
Dylan came right back and slack the back of James's head. Causing James to pat his head and whine like a little kid. "Shut up, James, he's still sleeping."
"MEANIE."
Oooo the death look, Dylan's very own death look. That made James to shut his trap...wow. Dylan walked over to my bed and pick-up Carter in his arms. Carter manage to look peaceful, even if there was his loud mouth cousin. I swear, I thought Dylan mouthed something just for me. Oh well...Still Carter in his arms and went to settle him back to his room. James was the one to shut the door behind him but he stayed in my room.
"So..." He began talking and took a seat on my bed. As he sat the bed fall to his weight, since he was bigger than me. "I heard you're going on a date with Dylan."
Jeez, not this story again. "Please, don't remind me."
James's did a quick chuckle and a cute one in fact. "You aren't like the other girls, Sea. You're really-special and in a good way."
"Why-" I did a lady-like gesture, my hand on my chin. "-I'm the one and only, Mr. Hartford."
A second later his head was staring on my carpet, blue carpet. I could only see James's built back since he was facing the other way. "What I would do, to be Dylan right now..." James's voice was low but still could be heard. I was still confused about that, what about Dylan? Something told me something was wrong, very...different. He got back up and the bed came back to even. Before James's close the door he said something, "You might want to change soon." A grin was on his face. "Unless, you want 15 guys and a little kid to see you only wearing a see-through tank top."
I looked down to my top, "Great."

Before I could go to school, I had to do my regular maid chores. How fun... "Need help?" My head raise to see James's staring down at me. "Cute maid uniform, it fits you." I forgot to said, it turns out the 'Punishment' was to make me wear a maid uniform while cleaning. Thank you so much Aiko, Kev, and Xerxes.
They 'personally' picked out these 3 different maid uniforms. I feel like a little girl going to Halloween and not in a good way. The main color was black and a hint of a white apron looking middle. The arm sleeves we some-what in the middle, to cover the top of my shoulder. A cute red bow was on my neck while two other white bows were on the arms. Besides how cute the maid uniform looked, I hated it.
"No, it's fine."
James ignored my answer and started to help cleaning the floor. "Sea, I gotta tell you something."
"Hmmm..."
In a broad voice James said, "I'll never give up on you. Once and for all I'll make you mine, and you'll be begging for me." A paused for a second, "Even if it takes betting Dylan, I'll do it. Sea, you're the one I want and Dylan's only standing in the way." In my life, I knew this boy was not joking.
"Ok," I stand up to feel like the higher person, "good luck with that. I'm hard to fall for a guy."
BINGO! A LIE!

-At School, English Class-
"Hey Lukey!" Luke instantly made a face at my nickname for him. His arms were crossed, acting like a little brat.
His face finally soften, "Ready for our date tomorrow?" Oh...great, he had to bring that up.
"Er-" I couldn't speak, it felt like the guilt was adding in my throat. "Well..."
"Well?!" Luke had a stern look on his face, not like Dylan stern look. No, Luke's face had anger written all over it. Unlike Dylan, who would still have a soft expression in his stern look. Luke had nothing soft on his face, only madness. It scared the heck out of me. His regular black eyes got darker, really dark as midnight.
