HOT yet COLD

Allergy

*VINCENT'S POV*

We were just about done when the girl finally spoke. She said she was working from yesterday morning and had fixed the outside of a ship, it was at the bottom of the ship and it had taken her and this man one and a half hours to do it all. That is why her hair was dripping wet. Then the Captain spoke. "Your mother should be proud of you." He said, but the girl looked away and didn't say anything and it looked like she ignored it on purpose. She looked down and from where I was sitting, I saw that her eyes started forming tears and her bottom lip was quivering slightly. She took an inhale and then she exhaled and said excuse me and walked out of the room quickly. She was out of sight when the Captain said, "Was it something I said to make her angry?" "No you couldn't be the reason she walked off like that Captain." Biff said. I think I knew but I didn't say anything. She walked back into the room and had herself together. "Sorry I had something in my eyes." She said. Well she did have her hands wet and her eyes were wet and her cheeks too but there was no sign that she was crying. "Thank you for helping my son. You make a good actress, miss...," the Captain was saying and then it hit us all that we didn't know the girls name. "Oh I'm sorry I forgot to tell you my name, I'm Lexus Alexi Blades and you are Captain?" she said. So that's her name, suits her too. "I'm Captain Nim." The Captain said. "I couldn't have done it without the help of your crew, Captain Nim." Lexus said to the Captain. "Your last name rings a bell, can I ask you a question." "Yes." "Was it your mother that died in these waters?" it happened again only this time everyone was watching closely. "Yes, it was my mother." She said. "Her name I remember people say it was Vanellaphe Alexi Blades." Captain said to her and she smiled. "Hey is this your phone? It's been vibrating for a while." Biff said holding it out in front of everyone. It was black and it had these sort of pattern on the back cover, it looked good like it was like that when she bought it. "Give it to me," she said coming out of her sadness. She answered it and said, "hi Charles." Someone on the other end said something and she replied angrily, "Why do you care if I call you Charles, it's not like you're my father anymore." Well now, we know whom she's speaking to now. "I'll only call you my father if you divorce that woman you got married to right after mother died." Well she was angry and she looked hot when she was like that.

*OUT OF VINCENT'S POV*

My father was making me angry and I was standing in front of the crew and talking like this, so I had to end the call. "Charles I'm working right now, I'll call you back in my break time, okay." I said that and ended the call. "Okay we need to move the boy to a more comfortable place and... you the cleaning boy can clean this up." I said. I picked up the boy and he felt like he weighed the amount of three stacks of paper but then Vincent came and took the boy out of my hands. "Don't kid yourself." He said in a sharpened voice. I took a step back; frightened he might start growling me. I turned around and went to my room where only I knew I would be alone. The boys had found the food and were cooking up some other sort of things. I started talking to myself. "I hate my life. I hate my step mom and her rapist sons', I. . ." "Hate everyone else too except for me." I spun around embarrassed that someone heard me. "Who are you and what are you doing here?" I asked. "I'm prince of the sea and I'm known as Biff." "Oh so that's your name." "Huh, did you think my name was Vincent and if you did it sounds off." "Nope I thought your name was Beef." I said and picked up my bag and walked out of the room, leaving him standing there and thinking of what I said to him. I was at the door when he came running to me. "Wait! Where are you going?" he asked. "For my break away from you smelly people." When I said that he smelled his under arms and said, "I took a shower so I don't smell, here you smell too." He said bringing his armpit to my face. I pushed his arm away and unlocked the door. "Wait, I'm free, why don't we go down to one of those shops and buy a coffee or something?" "Uhh, no I'm not free and I don't drink coffee at this time in the morning. I have to go." I looked behind him and saw that the Vincent dude was looking at me but when he saw me look he looked away. He had a way of looking at me and when it came to looking at other people, he had a sort of easy look on his face.
