Chapter 14: Chapter 14
Brittany could not sleep. Her mind kept replaying the kiss Seth planted on her neck. It was quick and she was hoping he would at least bite on it softly and... No! she shook the memory from her head. She had been reading too much erotica. No more Harley Quin for me, she thought as she kept her Harley Quin books inside a drawer.
She touched her neck again and a smile crept up her face. How could she stop thinking about it? It was the best feeling ever. She laid on her bed and squirmed around. "Did Cole Sprouse take you out on a date?" Lisa asked and Brittany sat up, "If he did, do you think I'll be here?" "Where would you be?" "Obviously with him, duh!" "Anyways, Damian called and asked if you were okay" Lisa said and Brittany felt guilty. She had left Damian on their date and had gone off with Seth.
"I'm fine" she said nervously and Lisa rested her hand on her hip, "He was worried. He said you just ran off" "It wasn't right, I know and---" "Don't apologize to me missy, call him and apologize. You don't just run off during a date" Lisa said and Brittany pouted, in my defense, he was with Chloe, she thought. "Fine I'll call him. Can you leave now?" Brittany said with an eye roll "Roll your eyes at me again and I'll pluck them off" Lisa said and left.
Brittany took her phone and video-called Damian. He looked casually sexy. No suspenders, just like the convention, no sleeked back hair. It looked like he had just come out of the shower.
"Hey!" she said and he waved, "Hi" he said nonchalantly. "What? You're mad at me?" "How do you expect me to feel when the convention is not over but my date is missing?" he said angrily "Well it's not my fault! You were with that chick, Chloe" "How does me being with Chloe have to do with you disappearing in the middle of the convention? I was seriously worried Bri" "Bri?" she asked and he rolled his eyes, "That's all you got from what I had said?"
"Look I'm sorry for running off. That place was not really my style and some girls were giving me looks" Brittany said. "I'm sorry too. I guess taking a girl like you to a nerd convention wasn't the right thing" "So you admit it was a nerd convention?" she smirked "For your sake, yes" he said with a slight blush creeping up his face. She decided to tease him about it, "Awww... you're cute when you blush" she teased and his face went full blown red.
"Who are you talking to?" a girl asked as she came into Damian's room. She had the same dark brown hair which was almost black but it was in a wolfcut. She was wearing day-glo shorts with a tank top. Who's that? Brittany thought.
"None of your business Elizabeth" Damian sneered and Elizabeth kicked him away with force and he flew. Just how strong was she? "It's Lizzie you dork!" she yelled and looked at Brittany. "You're too cute and hot to be with my brother" she said and Brittany smiled, "Your brother and I are just friends" "Yeah right!" she said sarcastically and Damian got up, "Get out of my room Lizzie!" he yelled.
"Whatever! Mom made pancakes!" she said and was about leaving but she came back, "What's the name?" she asked Brittany "None of your----" Damian was saying but Lizzie punched him, "Shut up asshole!" she said menacingly and smiled at Brittany, "Name?" "Brittany" "Break my brother's heart Brittany and I'll fucking come for you!" Lizzie said and left.
"I'm so sorry about her. She can be----" "Don't worry. It was kinda sweet. Her looking out for her little brother" Brittany crooned "There is nothing sweet about getting beat up everytime" he said as he rubbed the spot Lizzie had punched and she chuckled, "She wasn't what I had imagined". "What did you imagine?" "I know it's stereotyped but umm...since her name was Elizabeth aka Lizzie and you guys are rich considering the fact that your dad is partners with my dad and your glasses are expensive, I imagined her to be like...me!" she finally said and he burst out in laughter.
"And how are you like Bri?" he asked as he took his glasses and was about to put them on but she stopped him, "Don't wear the glasses, they...cover how green and pretty your eyes are" she mumbled and he dropped them, "Oh!" "Now back to your question about how I am like, I know I'm stuck-up, girly, annoying, pretty----" "You're not pretty, you're beautiful" he said and her face flushed. His face reddened as he realized what he had just said.
"Oh stop it!" she giggled with her hands covering her face. He smiled and she removed her hands from her face, "Tell you what! I'll make it up to you tomorrow but it won't be a date. It would be two friends hanging out" she said and his face fell. He did not want to be her friend. That word friend was terrible when Brittany was concerned. "Great!" he said with fake enthusiasm.
She smiled and sipped the fruit smoothie Lisa had dropped. "So what the heck is Bri?" she smirked and he blushed, "Well...i...it's your nickname?" She remembered the nicknames Seth had given her but she shook her head to get his dimple-showing smirking face out of her head. "I kinda like it! Bri! Super Bri punch!" she said as she threw a punch to the air and he laughed.
"Damian pancakes! Lizzie stop eating those!" a voice yelled and Damian got up from his workstation, "I'll see you tomorrow?" "Obviously! I asked you out!" Brittany said in a duh tone and he chuckled, "Good night Bri" then he ended the video-call.
Brittany laid back on her bed. The two things in her head were Seth and Damian. Sure she blushed when Damian said some cheesy words but it wasn't as much as when she was with Seth...by the lake. She remembered the neck kiss Seth had given her and she found herself blushing. Get a grip on yourself! He's not even here! she thought and her conscience purred, "Bet you wanna know how his lips taste" "Bet you're not my real conscience! I mean are you not meant to help me distinguish between good and bad?" she snapped "Now Bri...I think you should think carefully about the non-date you planned with that pussy" "Again with the vulgar language?"
But she knew her conscience was right. Was she really right about having a non-date with Damian? She did like him...but not as much as Seth. "Ugh! That's too much thinking!" she said and covered her face with a pillow.
~~~~~~~
Damian pushed the rim of his glasses up his nose. Although Brittany had said it wasn't a date, he felt like it was which was why he had requested Lizzie to dress him up. She was the one that had chosen clothes for him for the convention.
It was hard because Lizzie could not find any clothes of his size, in his wardrobe. All his clothes were bigger than him and not in a sexy way, more like in a nerdy way. "You need to go shopping!" Lizzie had said after she managed to find him fitting pants and an oversized tee.
"Damian!" someone hollered and he turned and saw Brittany waving at him. She was looking really hot in a dark blue romper with a black belt around her waist. She stopped when she got to him and studied him well then she shook her head, "This won't do!" she said and carefully removed his glasses, "I told you that it hides how pretty your eyes are" she smiled and his face flushed. She grabbed his hand, "Before we go on our non-date, we're going shopping!" she squealed and dragged him.
~~~~~~~
Brittany wore a sun hat on her head and smiled at herself in the mirror, "Flamboyant!" she exclaimed and removed it then she arranged her hair. Damian had been in the dressing stall for a really long time. The dresses he had chosen for himself were...nerdy but not in a sexy way.
The salesgirl handed some clothes to Brittany and she selected a long-sleeved T-shirt with black jeans. The dressing stall opened and Damian came out wearing a checkered button-up shirt and jeans, "Bri, how do you----" "Wear this and save my eyes from the abomination you're wearing" she said as she threw the clothes she had picked for him, to him. He took it and went back inside.
"Can I get a sexy pair of glasses that don't really hide someone's eye colour. Like it shows the green in someone's eyes, probably even highlight the green!" Brittany explained to a very confused girl in white and black uniform with a black waistcoat. "I'll try my best" she said and left.
Brittany tapped her feet impatiently then Damian finally came out. The girls in the store swooned over the hot guy standing in front of the dressing stall in a simple T-shirt and jeans. His pecs were more defined in the shirt and it made them drool.
"Er...how do I look?" Damian asked and Brittany smiled, "Like a snack" her conscience drooled and his face flushed. I said that aloud, didn't I? Brittany thought "Yep! You got no self-control girl!" her conscience said. It's all your fault! she thought. "I didn't know you worked out" she said and he face looked away, "It was something I did at my spare time" "Well you must have had a lot spare time cos you are ripped!" "Er...thank you".
The salesgirl came back with a pair of glasses, "Ma'am, the glasses you---- O. M. G! Who brought out daddy?" she purred as she eyed Damian seductively. Damian's face was tomato red. Brittany scoffed, "Excuse me, that's sexual harassment. He's still a minor! Get someone of your own size!" "I'm sorry ma'am" she apologized and Brittany snatched the glasses from her hands and walked to Damian then she helped him wear it.
The glasses had a light metal frame with caramel tinted lenses. It really brought out the light green in Damian's eyes. "Wow!" Brittany sighed breathlessly and she held out a mirror for Damian. "Woah!" he said and ran his fingers through his hair "Do you like it?" she asked and he looked at her, "Yeah!" then she turned to the salesgirl, "Bring clothes like the one he's wearing and other clothes that are suitable for a sexy teenage boy. Also bring some headwear, I'd like to decorate my hair" she said and flicked her hair up then the salesgirl left.
"Umm...thanks for...er... standing up for me...when she was er..." Damian stuttered and Brittany smiled, "It's okay! What are friends for?" "By the way do you have money to pay for what you're buying because my parents may be rich, but they don't allow me spend so much" he said and she brought out her dad's credit card, "It's all going on dad's tab!" she smirked. "Won't you get in trouble for that?" "Maybe...maybe not!"
~~~~~~~
After shopping, the two of them went to a restaurant that Brittany thought was familiar but she couldn't just remember when she had been there.
"Umm... Brittany, is there something on my face?" Damian asked as Brittany buttered her scone, "Why do you ask?" "Those girls have been staring at me since we walked in and I think they're glaring at you" he said and she smiled. "Damian, they find you attractive and they're jealous of me cos I'm prettier and I'm with a hot guy!" "They find me attractive? But no one has ever found me attractive" "Wrong!" she said and gulped her tea, "You should really see yourself blushing, you're the cutest thing ever!" she said and he looked away, "Thanks" "You don't have to thank me everytime Damian but you're welcome!" she said and he rubbed his nape, "I have to use the bathroom!" he said and got up then left.
The door of the shop opened and Seth and Zed waltzed in. "Oh my freaking gosh! Is this cafe a place for hot guys because there are three hot guys in this place" a girl squealed "The guy that served us coffee is hot too" another girl said "I think this cafe is my favorite cafe now!" the girls squealed.
"Hey guys!" Zack said as he did a bro handshake with Seth and Zed. "Wassup?" Zed said then he looked around, "This place is pretty packed and it's not even Sunday" he said then he spotted Brittany buttering a bagel. "Dude!" he said as he hit Seth, "Brittany's here" then Seth looked at where Zed's eyes where and saw Brittany nibbling on her bagel. "Oh yeah! She came in with a really hot dude" Zack said as he passed a bagel with the drug inside to Seth.
"She didn't recognize me but she did say I looked familiar" Zack said as he cleaned the counter. "The guy she came with, did he look like a massive jerk and did he come in with a group of boys?" Seth asked and Zack shook his head, "He was wearing glasses and he looked kinda introverted. Oh there he is now!" Zack said and Seth turned and saw Damian smiling at Brittany as he sat down.
Seth clenched his jaw. She's a bigger player than I am, she's fucking with two guys----no make that three if you add that dick, Seth thought. "Zack, I'll have coffee with lots of cream. Black coffee for Zed" Seth said then he looked at Zed, "Get us a table close to Brittany".
There were three girls at the table close to Brittany. "Hey ladies" Zed smirked and the three of them looked up. "Hi!" they squealed "I was wondering if you could lend me your table?" he said as he cocked his head. "You can take my pussy too!" the brunette said and Zed stared at her wide-eyed. "April!" the redhead said as she hit the brunette's arm, "What she's trying to say is take our pussy on this table". "Umm...." Zed tried to find words.
Seth slid a paper across the table to the three girls, "That's my number, now leave if you're down with your coffee" he said. The girls squealed as they got up and left fighting for the paper. "What happened to your flirting?" Seth asked as he and Zed sat down "Taylor threatened me not to flirt with any girl else she'll render me impotent, those were her words".
Damian looked up and saw Seth glaring at him. "I think I know that guy" he whispered to himself and Brittany raised her head, "Which guy?" she asked and turned then her blue eyes jammed Seth's dark ones. She quickly turned back, "What's he doing here?" she asked herself then Zack came over and smiled, "Do you need anything else?"
It finally hit her. They were in the cafe Seth had taken her and she had saved him from those giants and the curly brown-haired waiter with the grey eyes was Zack.
"Zack!" she said and he smiled, "Do you forget faces out of habit or is it a condition?" he asked. "What is Seth doing here?" "It's a cafe, he came to have coffee" "Well yeah, but why is he glaring like that?" she asked as she glanced at Seth again. "I don't know, why don't you ask him? Here he comes!" he said and Brittany turned and saw Seth standing up.
"Check please!" she shouted to Zack but he didn't move. Brittany took out her purse and dropped a neat 100 dollar bill on the table then she dragged Damian and left, bumping into Seth's shoulder in the process.
"Zed you're paying! Hurry up!" Seth said as he followed Brittany out of the cafe. Unfortunately for him but fortunately for Brittany, she was in her car already and she was driving off. "Shit! Zed I'm taking your car. I'll text you the address of wherever I'll be. You can ride my motorcycle!" Seth shouted and he entered Zed's truck and trailed behind Brittany.
~~~~~~~
"Phew! We should be safe now!" Brittany said as she cleaned her face with her handkerchief. "Here" Damian said as he handed vanilla ice cream on a cone to her then he sat down with his own ice cream. "Why did we leave anyways?" Damian asked "I...I felt claustrophobic in that place" Brittany lied. They had escaped to a park and had lost Seth...or so they thought.
"Can you move your fat head? I can't see anything" Seth said as he pushed Zed's head. "Well it's your fault for hiding in a bush" "I can't walk up to them. Brittany would probably escape again" "If she escapes, you'll follow her because you're jealous" Zed said and Seth pointed at himself, "Me, jealous? No! I'm just curious to see how the date with the nerd would go. Brittany is not my type by the way". "Keep telling yourself that!" Zed smirked. Seth leaned back, "Your fat head can occupy the whole space. I'm not spying again!" he said as he folded his arms.
"Suit yourself! Look they're holding hands!" Zed said and Seth immediately pushed his head and looked through the hole in the bush. Brittany and Damian were not far from each other. They had a reasonable distance between them.
"Dickhead!" Seth said as he smacked Zed's head. "You said you weren't jealous" Zed laughed and Seth rolled his eyes. "When did you start liking her?" he asked and Seth thought about the first time they met; at her car. She was fucking annoying and he really hated her when she pinked his motorcycle but then she was also his comfort angel, Hope.
"You really like her" Zed observed "No I don't!" Seth protested and Zed smirked, "Then why are you smiling as you're thinking about her?" Seth's smile immediately dropped, "I'm not smiling" "But you are thinking about her" Zed teased and Seth crawled away, "Go fuck yourself!" he said as Zed laughed.
"I have to use the bathroom, hold this!" Brittany said as she handed her ice cream to Damian then she left.
~~~~~~~
"I hate public bathrooms. They are so---- Arrgghh!" Brittany was complaining before she was dragged by someone. The person quickly put his hand over her mouth.
Goodbye nails and lashes I'm yet to wear, goodbye clothes, shoes and bags I'm yet to buy, goodbye concealer I'm yet to use, goodbye---- "Oh would you stop your nonsense! You're not even putting your family first!" her conscience scolded her then she heard someone laughing.
She opened her eyes and saw Seth laughing with his hand still over her mouth. She removed his hand, "Are you deranged?" "Why was your face like that?" he laughed holding his sides "Like what?" "Like you were having an internal conflict" he laughed more and she rolled her eyes, "Well have fun being crazy!" she said and was about to go but he grabbed her wrist, "Are you ignoring me, Brittany?" he asked, his voice low.
It made her remember when he had asked her to fall in love with him and when he had asked her if she would like to know what a makeout session feels like. She shook the thoughts out of her head. She really hated when he called her Brittany. The way he said the name made her legs feel like jelly and she did not like that. They were meant to stand firm and help her run away from him but they became jelly whenever he said her name.
"Why would you say that? Of course I'm not ignoring you" she said as she tried to free herself from his grip. "Then what was that in the cafe?" he asked as he loomed over her. She shifted uncomfortably, there was no where to back up to as her back was already against the wall.
"I felt claustrophobic" she lied as she shifted her gaze from him "Claustrophobic because of me? Do I really take up much of your space?" he asked as he gently placed his hands beside her head. Well you're doing that now, she thought and he smirked. Her face reddened. She had said that aloud.
"You know, I thought that after what happened between us on our little date would change things between us" he pouted. "What happened between us and which date?" she asked and he faked hurt, "That was an arrow to my heart princess. How could you forget?" She also hated when he called her princess, she was a queen for Chrissake.
"Well it was short and kinda chaste so maybe you won't remember" he said and his eyes flicked down to her neck. He still remembered the spot he had kissed. "Remember what?" she was playing dumb. Maybe that would frustrate him and he'll let her go.
"Don't worry, I'll leave a mark so you can remember" he smirked and his lips descended on her neck. Her ears and cheeks could basically be sold as overripe tomatoes. He kissed a spot then he licked it. "Se...Seth what...are y...you doing?" she stuttered. He smirked against her neck and slowly bit the spot he had licked. A moan escaped her lips. "Seth..." he removed one of his hands from the wall and used it to cup her face. Brittany quickly used her hand to cover mouth to stop the moans from coming out. He sucked in the spot for a long time before he continued biting. Brittany would have fallen down if she wasn't pressed sandwiched between the wall and Seth.
"Why don't you ditch suspenders boy and come with me?" he whispered and she tried to steady her breathing, "If I ditch him again, I'll have to ask him out again because it's not...ah!" she moaned and he smirked, "We wouldn't want that, would we?" he asked and kissed the bruise forming.
Seth raised his head from her neck and ran his thumb on the reddish bruise on her neck then he kissed her cheek. He smirked when he saw her face; her ears and cheeks were flushed and there were tears in her eyes but he knew they weren't tears of pain.
"Red is a really good colour on you" he said as he moved back. She removed her hand from her mouth and hit him, "What's wrong with you?" "You enjoyed it" "No I did not!" "Your cheeks say otherwise" he said and she slapped her hands on her cheeks, "No they don't!" "Whatever helps you sleep at night" he said and turned to leave "Definitely not you!" she said as she removed her back from the wall. He turned back and smirked, "If you were with me on a bed sweetheart, sleep would not be on your mind. In fact, I'll make you forget everything, your mind will be completely blank!" her face heated up as those words left his mouth.
"See red is perfect on you!" he smirked and walked away but then he came back, "Oh yeah! Vanilla smells good in you too" he smiled, not smirked, and left.
Brittany dashed into the bathroom again and looked at her neck in the mirror. The bruise stared back at her. "Oh my God! I left my concealer in my car" she sighed and gently touched it. She smiled when she remembered Seth's lips had touched her neck. Her fingers trailed up to her lips and she massaged them gently. How would his lips feel like? she thought smilingly then she caught herself. No! No! No, no, no! We did not enjoy what just happened! "Speak for yourself" her conscience said. "When are you ever on my side?" she asked with her hands on her hips. "I was on your side when you ditched that pussy for Seth" "I still wonder where you got such foul language from" she said and left the bathroom.
She quickly put her hand over the hickey, disadvantages of having short hair and not wearing hair extensions, she thought and went to meet Damian.
"Hi!" she said and he looked up, "Took you long enough. Your ice cream was melting so I licked it" he said and she flicked his arm, "You bully! You're buying me another one!" she said as he got up and followed her to the ice cream stand.
She did not know when she subconsciously dropped her hand from her neck to collect the ice cream. "Did a huge mosquito bite you?" Damian asked as he touched the hickey and she quickly covered it with her hand, "I... I'm allergic to the water in the bathroom and I used it to touch my neck so maybe I'm reacting to it" she lied as she avoided his eyes. "Whatever you say!" Damian said and they started walking towards her car.
Brittany was glad that Damian was naive and thought the hickey was a mosquito bite because she wouldn't have been able to explain how she got it. She heaved a sigh of relief as he entered the car.
Damian watched Brittany cover the hickey with her concealer. Of course he knew it was a hickey, he was a teenager, though shy but still a teenager. He also knew who had given it to her. Seth. Brittany was gone for a long time, so he had gone to see if she was okay and when he had gotten there, he saw her pressed against the wall with Seth's head on her neck. From her moans, he knew she was enjoying it and it pained him.
The bad boy always got the girl. Why couldn't he get the girl? He thought him and Brittany were having a connection. She had asked him to ask her out on a date. But maybe she just saw him as a friend. He remembered what Brittany had said to Maddie; "...girls like me end up with nerds". That was the only strong of hope he had. That Brittany would indeed follow the 'Opposites attracts' and fall for him.
