Red, Hot Summer

DAY 4 - Enough is enough!

LOTTIE

As she walked into the bathroom Scarlett and Priya were both in the shower in Bobby. He looked a mixture of delighted and terrified at having the two girls in there with him. Priya would eat him alive if she really did make a move on him. Lottie couldn't get her own move she'd made on Gary out of her head. He hadn't pushed her away but then he'd jumped into bed with Marisol and put the moves on her straight after. And Hannah? What was she going to think when she saw what Lottie had done? She was so angry at herself! What if Rocco found out? She'd given him a handjob in bed as she'd felt so guilty for kissing someone else behind his back. But these other girls saw nothing wrong with throwing themselves at everyone else's partners several times a day. It wouldn't surprise her if Scarlett and Priya worked their way through all the guys before the Summer was out. Marisol didn't seem much better. At least Hope understood what coupling up meant. She couldn't watch them any longer and stormed off to the dressing room to get ready for the evening where she found Hope doing Marisol's hair.

"There you are! I was just saying I think we should go all out tonight, really glam up!" Hope said. "Will you do my makeup, Lottie?"

"Of course I will!" Lottie said. "Let's go out out."

Priya and Scarlett walked in wrapped in large, fluffy pink towels. "Ladies, I was just saying, let's really go for it tonight, it's the first night in our new couples, well one of us kept our man, but let's really dress up! I want Noah's jaw to drop when he sees me tonight!"

She wasn't the only one who wanted to make Noah's jaw drop, as Priya and Scarlett started pulling outfits out and trying them on, Lottie giving them the side-eye as they stood chatting in skimpy underwear. Scarlett settled on a bright red bodycon dress whilst Priya went for a skintight jumpsuit.

"I'd take Hope's advice on this," Lottie laughed at Scarlett. "That's not really screaming glam!"

"Well I LOVE this look," Priya told her, "Scarlett in scarlet!"

"You're going to steal a thousand hearts in that," Marisol told her.

"As if that's not her intention, both of them actually," Lottie said rolling her eyes as Priya looked at her outraged. 

"If you want to say something, spit it out," Priya said bluntly. "Don't bitch under your breath."

"Oh I'm not. I said it. You and her," she said, pointing at Scarlett. Lottie turned and walked across the room to grab her hairbrush.

"No, not going to happen this time. Don't bitch at us and then just walk off!" Priya said, raising her voice.

Lottie put down the brush and turned to face Priya. The room fell silent and Hope looked on excitedly. 

"Walk off? Since when do I do that? I've always been totally honest about how I feel about you!" Lottie snapped.

"Right. You'be been making catty comments about me from the moment I arrived and today, it's been non stop! You're so childish!" Priya said.

"I'm 24!" Lottie replied, pouting and folding her arms.

"Then act like it! My 14 year old cousin is more mature than you!" Priya replied.

"Priya's right, you're bang out of order Lottie. Priya's done nothing to deserve the way you've treated her," Scarlett chipped in, defending her new friend. "We're all sick of it, it's boring now. We get it, you're jealous of her!" Priya squeezed her hand appreciatively. 

"I knew you'd have my back," she said to her.

"Well of course she's going to side with you. She's just as bad as you are. Hannah and I saw your true colours the moment you arrived. I mean you stole Ibrahim from me the moment you could!" Lottie said. "Have we all forgotten that?"
