Chapter 15

*Prod's POV*

When I finally gathered up enough confidence,I walked to Penny's room. She sat up on her bed,watching tv. Her twists were in a ponytail,and she had on some pajama pants and a big shirt. She looked up at me,smiling. "Hey,Penny." I said,smiling. "Hey Prod,what's been up with you the past few days?" She asked,looking at me. I looked down. "T-That's what I came in here for. Look,Penny," I started off,meeting her eyes, "I.... I like you." I said,raising my eyebrows. She looked at me a moment,staying silent a while.

"Is that what this is all about?" She asked,giggling. I nodded. "Prod,I think it's cute that you like me. You didn't have to hide that." She said,kissing my cheek and causing me to blush. I cleared my throat,gaining my cool back. "So.... Do you like me back?" I asked,staring at her with hopeful eyes. She frowned a bit,looking down. "Prod,i'm flattered,really,it's just that-" "Kionte.... I know. Sorry I asked." I stood up,my heart shattered,starting to walk away,but she grabbed the hem of my shirt,looking at me with pleading eyes. "Prod,don't be mad at me. Please,I didn't know you liked me!" She said,forcing me to look at her. I smiled sheepishly,nodding. How could I stay mad at her?

"You're right,sorry." I said,and she hugged me. "Just know that I'm always here,if you need anything." I said,smiling. She nodded. "I always knew you would be there for me Prod." She smiled wide,making my heart flutter. I grinned at her. "I wish I would've told you this before you met Kionte'." I thought,but didnt say aloud. She smiled. "I know what would make you feel better." I raised my eyebrows,watching as she went into her dresser,pulling out two packets. "A facial." She looked at me as I frowned up. "I am not putting that on my face." I told her simply,and she pouted. "Please? Look! It's guaranteed to make your skin 5 times softer! Come on! Please?" She pouted again,and I rolled my eyes. "I said no." I said,looking at her. "I'm not going to stop begging until you say yes." She said flopping on the bed. I sighed. "Fine." She screamed,jumping up. "Yes!" She did a funny little dance,making me giggle. She then opened the packet. "Lay down with your head on the pillow. She instructed,and I did so. She poured the facial mask on her. Hand and started to put it on my face.

"I have to go downstairs. Just stay there and I will be right back." She said after she finished putting the mask on my face. I sighed,feeling the mask starting to stiffen. A few minutes later,she was back as she said. She sat on the bed next to me. "Feeling better?" She asked. I looked at her blankly. "Fine. Worth a try. You can take it off now." She said. I walked over to the mirror,peeling the mask off. I felt my face. "Wow. It's so soft." I said,feeling my cheek. "I knowww,right?" She said,smiling wide. I looked at her from the mirror,admiring the way she looked when she smiled. I just wish she were mine....

*Peyton's POV*

I sweeped the kitchen floor,then walked into the front room,vacuuming. I dusted off the pictures and washed dishes also. After all of that was done,I headed up to my room. I made up the bed nice and neat,and I straightened everything up. I put a load of everyone's clothes in the washer,and went back upstairs to the bathroom to take a shower. Afterwards,I got out,putting on lotion and brushing my hair up into a ponytail. I put on a pair of blue jean shorts and an oversized shirt.

I left the bathroom,finding Ray laid out on my bed and snoring. Grinning,I crept up to him. I grabbed my feather earrings out of my jewelry box,trying not to laugh. I stuck a feather up his nose,wiggling it a bit. He snorted,turning over in his sleep while I laughed silently. I dragged the feather down his face,then he opened his eyes,snatching the feather from my grip. I laughed,and he grinned,pulling me beside him. "Why are you sleep at two pm. on a Saturday?" I asked. "I got tired of waiting on you." He said,smiling. I giggled,flipping on the tv.

"You know what we should do?" He asked,looking at me. I glanced from the tv to him. "What?" I asked. "We should go somewhere. Us and the crew." He said,grinning. "Yes! That way we could all hang out and bond instead of staying in the boring house all day." He laughed. "What do you think we should do?" He asked. I thought for a minute. "Umm..... Picnic in the park? No. Dinner out to eat? N-" "No I like the dinner. Let's do the dinner." He said. I nodded. I got up,going around the house. "Kenyaaa!" I found her sitting on her bed,writing something down. "We scheduled a dinner tonight. We're going out,so be ready around...six." I said. "Do I wear regular clothes?" She asked. I nodded.

Next,I went to Jacob's room and found him and Amaya wrestling over the remote...again. I sighed,snatching the remote from Jacob's hand. "We are going to dinner at six. Be ready,we're going out." I said,sliding the remote under the bed and walking out. Next,I entered Craig's room to find no one. I walked into Chresanto's room to see that he was dancing to suit and tie,looking in the mirror and singing into a brush. I raised my eyebrows,watching as he moonwalked from the mirror to his dresser. I cleared my throat,causing him to jump. "Uh..." He said after a few seconds. "I saw nothing. We're going out at six. Be ready." I said,laughing before walking out. Next,I entered Diggy's room to find him and Kristina sitting down kissing while the tv was playing. I made a disgusted face and cleared my throat. They jumped up,and Diggy smiled shyly while Kristina shot me glares. "We're going somewhere at six,be ready." I said,smiling. Kristina scoffed. "People in this house have no fucking manners." I glared at her,then looked at Diggy. "She can't come." I said simply. "And who are you supposed to be?" She asked. "Peyton Ann Hathorn to be exact." I replied,looking directly into her eyes. "I don't know why you think you're so special. You're nothing but the fucking help." She looked at me,smirking. "Whoa,Kristina. Watch it talking to her like that." Diggy said,looking at her from the corner if his mouth. "Oh no,let her say it Diggy. That bitch has been getting on my nerves since I first seen her. She ain't gon do shit though." I said,looking at her and raising my eyebrows while tilting my head. "Oh,I won't?" She asked,then before I knew it,I felt a sharp pang against my left cheek,and I gasped,touching it. I snatched her hair,dragging her over Diggy onto the ground. I punched her cheek,and she screamed,slapping me again. I pushed her on the floor,getting on top of her and punching her. Diggy tried to get me off of her,but I pushed him back. I snatched her hair,and her head jerked to the side as she pushed me off of her. "Bitch!" I screamed,and punched her right in her eye,and she screamed,holding it. "Don't you ever say no disrespectful shit like that again."I said,grabbing her hair once more before I felt myself being pulled from her by strong arms. Diggy was pulling her to the other side of the room,and I snatched my arms out of Chresanto's grip. "Fuck outta here!" I screamed at her,flipping her off and walking out into the hallway,breathing hard. I saw everyone gaping at the sight in the room,standing in a huddle.

I saw Penny and Craig in the doorway,and I turned to them. "We're going out at six,be ready." I said simply,turning the corner and going to my own room.
