************************************Zoey*************************************************
Erik had brought Shaylin to us and she was annoying. She was a nice person and all, she just talked…a lot. Damien and Darius told us about her gift of true sight and luckily Roxanne had a copy of the advance fledgling hand book to lend them. “Ohmigod, I can’t believe Erik messed this up twice, and Shaylin is something,” Roxanne laughed. She was cooking something amazing with the food Stevie Rae and Ant brought back.
“It looks like she’s into Erik,” I said looking over at them. He looked slightly annoyed by her, but I guess he was trying to be polite about it.
“Yeah isn’t it cute,” she smiled. I was surprised Roxanne wasn’t jealous. “It’s not like he’s into her or anything, and well the only reason I had any female friends was because they wanted to get with Erik,” she half smiled.
“That sucks,” I said feeling sorry for her. “Wait how did you know what I was thinking?” I asked her.
“I don’t know, sometimes I just feel really in tuned to your emotions, and well you know how Shaylin is reading colors,” I nodded, “Sometimes when I look at people I feel a song. It’s weird, and I don’t want to freak Erik out anymore. The gold mark thing was hard enough on him. So please don’t say anything to him.”
“I won’t,” I assured her, “It’s weird ‘cause I feel the same about you, not the hearing songs thing, but like I can read you,” I smiled at her.
“It’s cool having a girlfriend to talk to, well, there’s Morgan, but she’s like a sister,” she said and I knew she could tell I was confused. “My friend from the other night, she’s engaged to my asshole, stepbrother Daniel, the one that tried to blackmail me.”
“Oh, that sucks,” I said feeling really bad for being jealous of her and Erik. “I’m happy to be you’re first girlfriend,” I said smiling at her.
“Me too,” she smiled back.
“That smells so good,” Stark said, wedging himself between us.
“It’s done, grab a plate,” she smiled at him.
Roxanne was a really good cook. It was five-star restaurant quality, and she made it look all fancy on everyone’s plate. “Where did you learn to cook like this?” Stark asked.
“When my sister got sick me and my brother did what we could to help out and that meant one of us always made dinner. I got most of my recipes from my mom, and the rest from watching cooking shows and experimenting,” she said smiling at Erik. “Somethings worked out better than others.”
“This is amazing,” Aphrodite said.
“If I weren’t madly in love with Zoey I’d ask you to marry me,” Stark said making her giggle.
“I’m not your type,” she reassured him, and Erik smiled seemingly to himself.
"What do you mean, you’re not only rich and beautiful, but you're talented, funny, and you can cook," he said puzzled. "You're everyone's type."
"There's more to love than that, and my flaws are about as heavily weighted at my perfection"-
"You could say that again," Erik said to his plate as he played with the reminder of his food.
"Um, I hate to be the bearer of bad knows, but we still don't know what Roxanne's marks mean, and why she went through change so fast, or why Erik marked Shaylin red," Damien said bring all of us back to the unresolved issues we were supposed to be going over.
