      "Sooo...Ellie. Where's your car?" I smirk. Car?? You mean motorbike??
"No way. You drive a motorcycle? I've got one too. That's what I rode to school. Ooouuu! Come on I know this really cool deserted road we can race on! You down?" I shrug.
     "Great tag me." Ok. I put the board and marker back in my bag. I put my earphone back over my ear and hopped on my bike. I saw his bike pull  up next to mine and I give him a nod. At that he takes off and I follow.
***
     "This is it. Race junction. Welcome." I take a look at the long stretch and smile taking off my helmet. I take off my backpack and pull out my board.
     " Sign language is fine you know. I'll understand enough." I nod.
' It's beautiful. I'm impressed.' I sign.
" Yeah I found it yesterday." I raised an eyebrow.
' And so how do you know it's deserted?'
" It's obvious. Look, just trust me ok? I promise to never hurt you or let anything else hurt you deal?" I nod. I don't know why, but I did. I trust him. He's like me.
"Alright. Ready?" I nod.
"Go!" And we sped off.
***
     Exhilarating. That's what it was. I had a blast. I kicked his ass three times.
"So where to Ellie Benelli?" I grin at him silently laughing.
' Really?'
" Yeah. I like it. I bet I've only called you that." I crinkle my nose.
' It's ugly.'
"Well what do I call you?" I unconsciously take off my earphones. ' How about Beth?'
"Ok Beth. Where are we going?"
' My place? Tag along?'
"Ok."
***
     " You're shitting me!!!" Eli roars laughing his way to a stomach ache.
' What?' He didn't see me. I kick him and he looks up cheesing like a kid on Christmas.
' What?' I ask again.
" This your place?" I nod.
" That house directly across from yours is mine." My jaw drops. This is down right ridiculous. I shake my head.
' Your stalking me?' I ask him joking.
"No I guess we were meant to hang out."
' I guess so. Well come on I'll show you around my place. Then we could watch some movies and eat snacks. Maybe have a little dance party. What do ya say? Learn a little sign language?'
"Deal. I'm for it. Yeah let's go. Tour me."
      I lead him in and show him around. When we got to my room I slowly opened my door.
"Wow. Your uhh really musical huh? I likey likey. I am too. I bet I know every song you know and more. Even the weird stuff. I bet you." He looks straight into my eyes and I don't doubt him for a second. I shrug. He begins looking and I mean really looking through everything.
     " You know you sure shrug alot. I've gotta break that. It's not lady like." He says turning back to look at me again.
' I never said I was lady like. And your nosy. Get out of my underwear. That's not gentlemen like.'  He chuckles.
"Never claimed to be one Bethy babe."
      I slowly, seductively walk up to him drawing a line from his jaw down his chest with my index finger.
' Bethy babe? Hmm. That's not too shabby. How about I just call you papi Jay? And uhh. You chuckle to much. I've gotta break that.' I sign walking away swaying my hips. He growls.
     " Tease. I see how you really are. We better go watch those movies before I have you making noises you didn't even know you could make." I snap my head up and blush quickly rushing for the door.
" Yeah. Don't get all shy on me now. Bethy babe. Starting what you can't finish." I gain my confidence back, turn to him, stand in front of him, and palm him. His eyes grow wide.
     ' Oh believe me, I can finish. I just won't.'  I smirk at him.
' Movie?' I ask grabbing his wrist and dragging him down stairs to the couch.
***
     I felt something moving under me. I slowly open my eyes to an awake Elijah.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to wake you. I was turning the TV off."
' I was so comfortable. Bring your ass back over here. Im tired. Your so warm. You playing music?'
"No. My phones off to save battery. And hmm? I'm warm am I? Nice to know I can comfort you."
     ' I hear music the closer you come maybe I'm really out right now. Just come back to me.' He pads over to me picks me up and lays me on top of him again. I sit up instantly.
" What? This is how we were."
' No. Not that. Your heart beat. Its- nevermind it's silly.'
"Nothing you say is silly. I won't judge you. Tell me."
     ' Well. Your heart beat sounds like music. Like pianos and violin's. It's beautiful.'  He smiles a genuine smile.
" Good. Now go to sleep Elizabeth we got school tomorrow." I nod. Off to sleep we drift again.
***
      "Elizabeth? You home? It's so quiet? Lizzy? Ellie!?! Shit she better be ok. I saw her bike. But it's....silent. No music. That's strange. Maybe she...Shit! Lizzy! Ellie!" I hear my mom yell as she comes into the house. Eli groans. My mom flips a light on.
     " Oh my!! Ellie? Oh uhh. Thank God your ok." I sit up accidentally straddling Eli. He hisses, his hands flying to my waist holding me still as his eyes pop open widely.
     " SHIT! FUCK! Bethy babe please don't move. DAMN! Elizabeth I swear if you move another inch I'm gonna fucking bl-" I quickly cover his mouth. My mother clears her throat uncomfortably eyes wide. In a flash I'm laying down on the couch Eli standing up stiff as a pole.
"Shit! Sorry. I didn't mean- I was just- I wasn't -"
"It's fine really I was just surprised. Ellie doesn't really ever have people over. Your the first actually. It's just so quiet in here. I thought. Nevermind. Go back to sleep."
     " No I should probably get going. My mom is probably worried too. Nice hanging Ellie. Maybe we can ride together tomorrow?" I nod yes. He nods back and nods to my mom face red and walks out the door. I sigh.
' Mom.' I start.
"Nope. Who was that! Spill...OMG! He was soooo cute. Well, actually I didn't really get a good look at him. He was to mortified to look my way."
' Mom.'
     " I can't believe you didn't tell me you were seeing someone!" I grab my phone off the table and play music. It's too empty here without him. He was my music. His heart. Now he's gone. I need my music.
" Not to mention-" I clap three times really hard. She looks at me.
     ' Mom. I'm not seeing any one. I just met him today. He moved across the street from us. We just hung out. We were watching movies and we fell asleep. That's all. The end.'
"Yeah well you never bought anyone else over. Matter of fact you never speak to anyone. Soooo spill. I want details." And then I told her everything literally everything. Even about his musical heart beat. Eventually finally really going to sleep.

     My alarm goes off and I get up to connect my phone to my surround sound in my room. This week is the neighbourhoods week. I step into the shower letting sweater weather seep into my skin. When the song was over I wrap a towel around me and step into my bedroom, only to have a mini heart attack because there on my bed is sitting Eli.  My hand flies to my chest in horror. I angrily stomp over to him.
     "Hey Bethy babe. Your mom let me up."
' Get the hell out!!! Now! Leave! '
"Woah there soldier chill. Why so angry? Orange you glad to see me?"
' Liar. My mom is still sleep. She wakes up in 15 minutes. We have a schedule here. How'd you get in here? Creep. And I'd be more happy to see you if I weren't naked!!!'
"Ok you got me your back door was unlocked. I'm not a creep just for you. Aaaannnnddd I'm honored really. What a site. Thank you." He winks and laughs.
     ' Turn around. I'm gonna get dressed. And you better not look.'
"Ok I won't. Scouts honor." He closes his eyes while I put on my grey lace underwear set from Victoria's secret.
      I walk to my closet to pick out a dress when I hear the intake of breath. I swivel around to see Eli gawking at me.
"Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck fuck. Shit. Hurry Elizabeth. Put some fucking clothes on."
' I told you not to look!'
" I couldn't help it. I had to peek. But holy shit. Not what I expected. Your so damn...perfect." I roll my eyes and flip him off. Over dramatic ass bastard. I pick out a black thigh length dress. It only hugged my curves. It has a huge diamond shape gap on my stomach to show my peircing off. It is tee strapped. I just do mascara today and black lipstick. I put on black laced wedges and a black laced choker. I look at my nails. I'm gonna have to get them redone in like another week.
     I grab my half leather jacket from last time and turn to Eli. I clap to get his attention.
' How do I look papi Jay?'
"Sexy as hell. C'mere Bethy babe." I slowly walk to him and stand between his legs. He grabs my wrist but I pull them free and push him back against the bed. I kiss down his neck to his chest, lifting his black tee. He groans.  "Bethy babe c'mon. Play fair." I lick all the way down to his pants line. I tug at his pants a little and then in a flash I'm underneath him.
     "That's not playing fair and you know it." He growls attaching his lips to my neck, sucking harshly leaving a trail of hickies I bet. I let a soundless cry escape my lips. I close my eyes. I've never been this close to someone. Never wanted to be. But in this moment, fuck I regret waiting this long. But then again I boubt that it would feel this good with anyone else.
"Fuck!" He whisper yells, abruptly pulling away.
"Even when you can't make a sound your breathing like that is making me go mad. Let's get breakfast before we both do something you'll regret." He leaves the room shutting the door before I could respond.
      I grab my book bag, phone, and beats before stepping out of my room to see Eli at the door eyes closed, breath slow. I grab his hands in mine. He looks down at me.
' Best friends?'
" Best friends." He agrees. We head downstairs to more blueberry muffins and coffee.
" Good morning Ellie and-" my mom drops the muffin pan.
"Ellie? Ok. Ok. I'm still drunk right? There's two Ellies in my kitchen. I'm still drunk." She laughs madly.
     " Ma'am with all do respect I certainly have no boobs. Aaaannnnddd my eyes are blue not green. And besides. Im much better looking. I mean c'mon look at these pecks!" He exclaims lifting his shirt.
' Pffttt!! I got you beat by infinity sexyness!! I'm twice as hot as you are! No triple! Plus look at this body! No way you'll beat me!'
"Yeah yeah yeah. Nothing I haven't seen already! You can only wish you had looks this great! Mmm!" He said flexing his muscles while I blush about the body part.
     " Wait...Ellie who- who is this?"
"I'm Elijah. We met last night remember?" He says as his face pulls a smirk at me and my face goes crimson.
" Rigghhhtttt. Eli. I had no clue. Wow. You guys are like identical fucking twins. What's your father's name?"
" Jonathan Jaissah Porter ma'am."
"Gotta picture?" He pulls out his phone and shows my mom a picture.
" How the hell do you two manage to look so fucking identical when your father's are polar opposites?"
" I don't know ma'am but me and Ellie have school now so we really must go."
"Right right. Be safe. Here take some lunch." She packs two bags of muffins and coffee and we stuff them in your backpacks.
