The 'Enemies' DISCONTINUED

Chapter 3: You? Again?

Chapter 3: You? Again?

After seriously roasting the Blue Bullets, we found a bench and sat down, still cheering.

"OMG you guys, we should have a celebration party!" Ally cheered.

"Where would we have it?" Alicia asked.

"We could have it at my place," I suggested.

"Totally!!" Sarah grinned.

"So, give me an hour and a half to get it ready," I said.

"Alright, we'll be over at seven," the others said. With that, we all split up and went to our apartments to get ready.

🌙 🌙 🌙

As I walk back to my apartment, I noticed someone familiar. It was the N-Zap '89 guy! I smirk and sashay over to him.

"Sooo..." I start, dragging my 'so', "You live here?" I finish.

He replies without looking up, "Yeah, what's it to you?" He finishes unlocking his apartment then glances up. I see his eyes light up in recognition. "Oh, it's you!" he smiles. I grin back. "Nice job at the battle. You guys had amazing strategies," he says praisingly. I can't help but glow at the compliment.

"Thanks! That wasn't really my best gun, but you're really talented with your N-Zap '89," I reply. His grin grows until it spreads from ear to ear. I can't help but notice his fangs. I lean forward and crane my neck to look into his apartment. He, however, leans sideways to block my view. I stick out my bottom lip and pout.

"Hey, I wanna see your apartment!" I fake whine.

"So then ask," he jokes. "Don't just stick your head inside!" he laughs.

I sigh and my bangs fall into my face. "Fiiine.. can I see your apartment?" I ask cutely, giving him puppy dog eyes. He does a wide sweeping gesture with his arm, inviting me in.

"Welcome to my humble abode," he says. I glance in and my eyes widen in wonder. It's just like mine, except cooler! It's obvious he has a lot of money.

"Is that the Inkpad 10?!" I gasp. He laughs and nods. I rush over and grab it. I turn it on and see that he has lots of texts.

"Popular, huh?" I murmur. I read the texts.

Hey Drew, ready to crash the girl's party?

Man, I can't believe we lost to those losers!

They're so annoying!

Do you think that Clarissa--

I'm cut off from reading his texts from him grabbing it out of my hands.

He laughs nervously and says, "It's not that different from the Inkpad 9..." I shrug it off and explore the rest of his apartment. I wander into his room. He has a huge bed! I decide to jump on it and laugh.

"Don't do that, you're in outdoor clothes!" he laughed, pulling me off. I laugh as well before moving on. I look in every nook and cranny, wanting to see everything. After this, I can report back to my team! I'm about to announce that I've seen everything when I see the curtain shift a bit from a breeze. Yet, that makes no sense, since we're indoors. I walk over and draw the curtains back.

"You have a balcony?!" I cry. I open the glass door and step outside. The sun is setting and I pull out my iSquid 6.

"Yeah, I'm almost always outside," he responds.

I snap several pics then come up with an idea.

"Come here," I beckon. His eyebrows pull together before he walks over.
