"Do you always bite your lip when you're concentrating?" A small voice giggles.
I look up from my laptop and see Elliott. She's taken off her hoodie, revealing various tattoos covering her arms. As an artist myself, I can tell the detail and technique gone into every one. She notices me staring.
"You like them?"
"They're so sick. I love them."
"What about you? Any tattoos?"
"Hidden ones, yes."
She grins. "I thought so. You don't seem like the normal seventeen year old."
"What gave it away?" I smirk back.
"You want the real answer or shall I say it's the multiple earrings?"
I give her a look.
"And that's it. You're not scared. Of anything." Her eyes are flirtatious and her lips curl up at the corners of her mouth.
"You're quite the mind reader." I chuckle, turning back to my computer.
She takes a seat opposite me on another sofa. "So, what was the ending?" She asks.
"Ending?"
"With the girl who can't keep her eyes off you."
I think about Billie, and that night. Then I think about Mike's warning.
"It was exactly that. The end." I reply, trying to not sound hurt.
She smiles to herself, then looks back at me. "Her loss, my gain."
I roll my eyes, and ignore the comment, but inside a part of me can't help but grin.
"Claudia's hosting me a welcome party. You'll be there?"
I nod. Satisfied, she leaves me to finish my work. Through the corner of my eye, I can see Billie staring - she hasn't kept her eyes off me since the second Elliott walked through the door.

I arrive at the mansion that Claudia's rented out for the night. Stepping in, the blaring music instantly fills my ears - there is no way anyone can hear each other in that house.
"Francis!" A tipsy Elliott screams. She grabs my hand and weaves me through everyone until we reach the kitchen, then grabs two beers and offers me one but I shake my head. I don't want to drink, not until I find Billie.
