"They don't like me!" Ariel whispered harshly behind me.

"Huh?" I turned to her from getting out a bottle of champagne from the cellar.

"Your friends. They don't like me." She repeated, a small scowl on her attractive face, arms, folded, hips, resting against the kitchen counter.

I raised an eyebrow at her.

After a long game of charades and Monopoly, everyone decided they were suddenly in the mood for champagne. Reason why I'm here in the wine cellar/cooler, sorting through bottles.

The only reason Ariel is here with me is because, Asa had retreated to her room to study, since three o'clock. Yes. That Einstein studies during the holidays. I'm shocked, too.

Anyway, Ariel had jumped at the opportunity to spend time with me and so far, she has been on her best behaviour.

"Who?"

"Don't act like you don't know!" She hissed. "Your Asa and her girlfriends."

Kosi and Lola still weren't talking to each other, but it looked like they had an unspoken conspiracy to make things difficult for Ariel while she honestly tried to have genuine conversations with them.

In the end, Kosi had left to continue packing and Asa had gone upstairs to study.

Finally getting the bottle I wanted, I exited the cold, dark room.

"They have good reason to. They're protective of Asa. They love her and you're not too subtle when it comes to keeping your hands to yourself. You kept leaning on me even when I push you away. Take a hint, Ariel. I'm taken!" I stressed the word.

A small pout twisted up her bright red lips and she shivered slightly, hugging herself, eyes downcast. "I... I'm sorry, Kam, I don't know what comes over me sometimes, I swear."

I sighed, dropping the Champagne on the counter top. "Look, Ariel, I see where you're going with this. And frankly, I don't understand why. You and I are dead. Things were never serious between us. I don't understand why it's becoming a problem for us. It never was, before."

She flared up.

"Well, that was because, before, you don't go around, telling lighter-skinned anorexic bitches that you loved them."

"Ariel!" I snapped at her, getting in her face. "Don't fucking talk about her like that!"

She was quiet for a moment, maintaining my angry glare, and then, her gaze dropped to my chest, her eyes, softening.

"You know..." She said, a low, seductive edge to her voice. "There's something about your anger that's so hot." She took one bold step towards me, standing so close until the tips of her perky breasts grazed my chest. "Turns me on, everytime," she whispered.

"Ariel-" I growled lowly, gripping her shoulders tight.

But she was undeterred. There was a taunting, cocky look in her eyes, her lips, pulled up in a triumphant smirk as her red claws traced my chest, softly. "I'd like to see you fuck me up, Kam."

I saw red for one furious moment.

Pushing her aside, I stepped away from her, glaring into her eyes. "Don't you try shit like that with me, Ariel. I don't cheat, even before Asa, and you fucking know that! For fucksake, stop this shit you're trying to do because honestly, this isn't the Ariel I know!"
