Twisted Fate: Amnesia

In His Sights pt 2

Shay

When we got close to Chrissy's house was the only time Silas looked at me. He watched me get out of the car and gave a nod when I said my goodbyes. I can’t stop thinking about Mama Tina joking about how she knows we both want to be together. If it were that simple, wouldn’t we be an item? I mean, he was flirtier today than his usual snide comments. Any thoughts of Silas I had was knocked out of my mind when I stepped into Chrissy's bedroom.

“Guess What!” Chrissy shouted enthusiastically knocking me down to the floor. I groan pushing her off of me before she jumps up reaching for my hand to help me up. “Sorry, but you’re not going to believe what we all just realized.” She says in between breaths.

“Then tell me. What are you talking about?” I ask looking at her and Tiana.

“You’re the last virgin!” Chrissy screams on the top of her lungs.

“What?” I look between them again, not believing they’re not.

“The last one.” Tiana laughs while shaking her head.

“Come.” Chrissy pulls me over to her bed and pushes me to sit down. “We got a surprise for you, but you have to wait to midnight.” She smiles so hard her cheeks turn red.

“Then why tell me about it now?” I ask, falling back on her bed.

“I couldn’t hold it in. But I have a better idea.” She bounces excitedly while grabbing her packed bookbag. “We know you are closer to the Hendrix brothers so we figured whichever one is single could be your boyfriend and walk you through the awkward phase one day.” Chrissy says, determined. “Sion or Silas would be all in.” She adds before scanning my face for an answer.

“That is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. I don’t need pity s*x”

“I told you.” Tiana said casually as we make our way out of Chrissy’s house. I’m having a sleep over at mine and originally came here to help Chrissy pick out her outfit for tomorrow, but I guess she didn’t need my help. “That was all Chrissy.” Tiana continues, “she thinks if Silas or Sion sleeps with you, Sin wouldn’t want you.”

“Wow, really?” I’m baffled. “What is your deal?”

“That’s your friend.” Sam says walking up from behind us.

“So, what was your surprise.” I ask them, changing the subject.

“We agreed on a cute but funny gift that you need more than ever now.” Tiana says giving me a wink.

“Oh boy, what is it!” Before she could tell me, Chrissy stops her and reminds her to wait until midnight. I love my girl Chrissy and all, but she really needs to get her Sh*t together. I took it upon myself to pull her aside when we got to my house and confront her privately. She fed me the same apology as before but came clean about her love for Sin being more than expected. Tiffany eventually made it to my house for the sleepover. Starting our shenanigans, we all confessed some stuff and I realized that I’m legitimately the only virgin in our group. Who knew these girls couldn’t handle puberty urges? I figured the surprise was going to be surrounding that, so I picked until they finally told me. We all sat on the floor in my living room with blankets pillows and snacks. Midnight came around and my friends gave me a homemade chastity belt. It was literally made up of a whole bunch of spikey belts. When they locked it from the back with a lock, you’d put on your gym locker I almost lost it.

“You guys are crazy!” I cracked up laughing.

“Well at least we don’t have to worry about anyone putting the moves on our baby.” Tiana laughed knowing about my moments with Silas. After he blamed his relationship problems on me, I needed to vent. I trust Tiana more than Chrissy and rightfully so.

“The Hendrix boys definitely won’t get your little panties the way they got all those other girls.” Chrissy cracks up.

“They won’t get me at all, why’d you even say that?” I ask, a little paranoid.

“Exactly, Silas would never go for Shay.” Samantha adds on.

“Not in a million years.” Tiffany snorts.

“You mean like he’d never go for you? That attempt of a kiss was pathetic.” Chrissy defends me.

“Ahh! That was hilarious!” Tiffany fell over laughing.

“Who invited you?” Tiana asked both Sam and Tiff.

“Hey, hey… None of that I invited Them.” Chrissy smiles.

“Right, enough about boys. Let's get ready for my party!” The tension in my living room was so thick you needed a chainsaw to cut it. Samantha’s’ face turned hot pink and I could only imagine how dumb she felt. Probably how dumb I felt crying this morning after Chrissy told me they heard Silas and Alicia in his fathers shed. Only for her to tell us tonight, she heard Alicia denying it. Apparently, she’s not ready and he’s such a gentleman he’ll wait for her. Tiffany added that Alicia told them Silas was going to be her Dom one day but never spoke of it again. My mother came into the living room not long after the room grew silent and told us lights out. Was she on time or what? The last thing I wanted to do was talk about Silas kinks with Sam and Tiffany.

Sincere

“Ma! Have you seen my film case?” I yell from the living room.

“Boy, what I tell you about yelling in my house? Your film is on the coffee table.” Mama fusses.

“Thanks ma.”

“Uh-huh, look next time.” She says as I head back to the front. This ninja just told me he ain't like Alex like that, yet here she is standing in front of the house with his a*s. Silas is such a liar; I knew he was feeling that girl from the jump. And there goes Tisha's jeep, let me go outside so I could see how scary Shay is looking today. By the time I got down the steps to where Silas and Alex are, they had their attention solely on Shay; whose back is turned to us as she speaks to her mother who is still sitting in her jeep.

“Aye, I'm going to call you when I get home. I'm glad we're on the same page.” Silas attempted to end his conversation with Alex.

“No, we’re not. Why don’t you want to be with me?” She asks.

“Never beg a ninja to be with you.” I cut into their conversation while Shay made her way into the yard. Alex stopped talking to Silas and looked from me to Shay. She lit up as if she were her number one fan. Finally, a girl who doesn’t hate Shay with all of her heart. And he’s giving her the run around, typical.

“Cute outfit!” Alex exclaims.

“Thanks.” Shay wears a humble smile.

“Happy Birthday Ugly!” I step down and gave Shay a hug, then went back on the porch to record them as a group. I’m trying to figure out if Silas will ever try to bone Shay or if he already did. He’s looking at her like there’s something there. Hopefully, he’s just checking her out because the two of them dating would be hell.

“I saw you on ‘Can you keep up?’ You were amazing.” Alex gushed over Shay.

“Oh, thank you…” Shay trailed off not knowing the girl’s name.

“Alex.” She almost squeaked.

“Alex, I’m Shay.” Duh, she just said she watched you on tv, i***t.

“I know, nice meeting you Shay. I guess I’ll see you around.”

“Um, okay.” Shay shrugged with a friendly smile on her face. Silas started walking Alex out of the yard while Shay made her way inside the house. Unless I missed it, he didn’t speak to her. He did, however, take in every detail of her from head to toe and I got it on camera. Alex saw him do it too, this is going to be a really juicy day. I overheard Ma talking about the comments Silas made yesterday.

“Sin, can you help me put this box in the jeep.” Shay yells.

“Yeah, I got it.” I walk in the house to grab the box. “You don’t even wear makeup why do you need a box full?”

“It’s a gift from Mama, she says it’s good to have.”

“Yeah, whatever.” A little after that we left for Shays Party and as expected, everything was a big ole circus.

Alex

Silas offered to walk me home, but I was too excited about meeting Shay. She’s a real sweetheart in person as well. I walked to the bus stop and went to my mom’s job to tell her about it.

“Mom, what are the chances of Silas falling in love with me in a week?” I ask from behind my mom, Ebony’s office desk; using her computer while she makes her coffee.

“Slim to no chance at all. Alex the boy doesn’t even know you.” She rolls her eyes at me.

“Yes, he does, we’ve been talking, and we kissed.” I blush.

“Who is he, let me see a picture?” She says walking to stand behind the chair. I pull up his Share Worlds account since I don’t have a picture of him. “I’ve seen that boy before…” She trails off thinking.

“Yeah? look at this.” I smile going to their videos to show her. “He knows Shay Brooks.” As she looks at them, her face goes pale.

“Alex, I don’t want you two talking anymore.” She said sternly.

“What! Why? I plan on becoming best friends with Shay and marrying Silas.” I cross my arms over my chest with an attitude.

“You will not be hooked on a Hendrix man!” She pointed her finger at me. My pose didn’t change, and she rolled her eyes. “If you want to marry him, you need to swear to me you’ll wait until your honeymoon to be intimate with him or any Hendrix man you pursue.” I dropped my arms and smiled a huge cheesy grin.

“Okay, but tell me why? I’m not sleeping around but I just want to know.” My mom knows I’m not a virgin we just don’t speak on it.

“Any woman sexually active with them gets hooked. It’s a curse Aurora put on their family after her husband left her for another woman. She found out he had a community of women but none of them would leave him. She cast the spell so any woman unwedded will love him so much that they would do anything to be with him exclusively, even kill him.” She took a deep breath. “Here at the clinic many girls come here for help after being with the oldest son. Some were even arrested until they could shake the spell. I don’t want that for you Alex, stay away from those boys.”

“Unless I get married.” I corrected her. It was love at first sight when I saw Silas. I can’t just stop because of my mom’s story.

“Whatever Alex, watch yourself. You’re old enough to look for signs.” She pushed me up out of her chair.

“What about Shay, my best friend?” Her face went glum. I’ve been following Shay since she started at the local pageants that I was in. She made it further than me, but I’m going to catch up to her. I’ll just follow her lead until I get my own resources. I, Alex Hendrix is going to be the world’s most paid, beautiful, top model. Standing next to my handsome rich husband Silas Hendrix. Alex Deeds sounds so ugly, I can’t wait to be Mrs. Alex Hendrix.
