THE LOVE HOUSE

CHAPTER 9

Ellie's POV

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

You would think that would be my alarm clock, right? Well, no. That is my idiot friend pretending to be my alarm clock.

I groan and force my eyelids to open like a locksmith would pry open a locked car. I flutter my eyes a couple times, and wipe away the sleep from my eyes. There stands Sophie looking..well like Sophie.

"I don't think it's normal for people to break into someone's house and start mimicking an alarm clock."

"Well I'm not normal; I thought you'd figure that out by now. AND HEY! I am not just a person I am your friend, therefore, I am permitted to break into your house." She states with her arms crossed and her weight leaning slightly to the right.

"Alarmclock?" I ask, still not understanding the point of the beeping.

"Oh. Well I came here to give you a ride to school and you were still sleeping...."

"I woke up late!!" I realize.

I immediately start getting dressed, not worrying about makeup or doing my hair. I grab my things and make it to Sophie's car where she is waiting on me.

We manage to get to school just in time for the bell that signals that school is about to start. I make my way to first period waving my farewell to Sophie.

I walk into the room and immediately see Damen hanging out with all the popular people. I walk to my seat and start getting out the binder for the class.

Damen says something and immediately all kinds of high pitched (and completely fake) laughing erupts from the girls.

Remind me why I am friends with Damen.

He totally ignored me all class period. This guy confuses me so much! One second he is being a gentleman and completely interested in me, and the next second he is flirting with some easy slutbag.

When it's time for lunch I make my way to the table. Sophie and Josh are already sitting and eating. I sit next to Sophie and across from Josh, who greets me with a smile.

"What you guys talking about?" I ask.

They both look like they were caught in the act, and I start getting a little suspicious.

"Okaaaay..? So y'all were talking about...silence. That's great. I hate silence. To me it just makes things a little suspicious, but you know I'm no gen-"

"We were talking about fneugvrubuibsdfksjfhurb."

"What? Sophie that made no sense." I say rolling my eyes.

"We were just saying that youanddamenwouldbereallycutetogether."

"Ok guys. This is kind of pathetic. Speak right!"

"We were saying that you and Damen would make a really cute couple.." Josh finally says just as Josey makes it to the table.

"Yeah. I think you two would be cute too." He says.

I roll my eyes at their idioticness. "Guys. I don't like Damen. He is a total man W and I am not going to be one of those stupid girls who think they can change him." I say matter-of-factly.

Immediately Josey starts laughing. "Ellie, whore isn't that much of a bad word. You can say it."

"I'd rather not." I say.

I pick up my banana and start eating it and try to ignore the wiggling of Josey's eyebrows. Why are bananas such an awkward food?

"Ellie. Don't underestimate yourself. I think if Damen were to change for anyone, it would be for you."

I laugh, amused. "Soaps. Don't overestimate me. Damen is a man..whore" I wince. "and I can't change that."

"I am not!" I immediately choke on my banana as Damen takes the seat left of me.

"Uh oh guys. Ellie's a choker." Belts out Josey. The whole group starts laughing about my banana incident while I just sit there and stare at my feet.

"So you think I am a man whore." Damen says as we make our way to fourth period.

"...mayebe..?"

He just keeps walking silentely.

"Come on! You can't blame me. You undress every girl you walk past with your eyes!"

"It's natural. I think every guy does it." He says defensively.

I roll my eyes. "Poor excuse."

"Would you like me to stop?" He asks skeptically.

Yes, I would love that. "I'd like you to do whatever your little heart desires. If you want to undress every slut that passes with your eyes, go right ahead. I'm not stopping you."

"Oh." He starts looking at his feet, and he kind of sounded a little disappointed.

THIS IS WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT!! Does he want me to care if he is interested in other girls? This is one of those times I almost think he likes me. ALMOST.

"Do you want me to care?" I whisper, not thinking he would hear, but apparently he did.

He stops walking, making me stop with him. He looks at me almost...like he was going to say yes. But then again, I don't know.

Then he just starts walking again. I was about to say something, but then we walked through the door to fourth period and I really didn't think that this conversation needed an audience.

Does Damen Valentine like me?

Damen's POV

She thinks I'm a man whore! She. Thinks. I'm. A. MANWHORE.

SHE THIKS I'M A FUCKING MAN WHORE!!!

That's pretty much all I thought about all day since lunch. I know I have had sex with a lot of girls, and sure, I undress a lot of them. Oh screw it.

"I'M A MAN WHORE!" I yell into the parking lot of the school. Everyone looks at me like I have two noses, but I ignore them and just get into the car and slam the door.

I'm gonna make her change her mind.
