I Hate This Flavor With a Passion.

"Mike stop that!" I heard from outside as I felt the warm sun hitting my face through the window as I laid on the floor. I groaned and rolled to the floor pushing myself up.

I walked to my suitcase and grabbed the outfit I wanted to wear, and took off into the bathroom to shower and get ready. I looked at myself in the mirror, I had on a dark blue pair of jeans with a brown tank top that showed off my chest and the tattoos that covered it, along with a white flowy tank top cardigan, and brown boots that came just below my knee. I had size two pink pipes in my ears with small silver hoop earrings going through them. I had put in a pink diamond Monroe, and put on light natural looking makeup. My bright blue eyes shined through under my heavy black eyeliner. I took one last look and smiled. My hair was long and curly falling down my back, my hair hung right at my ribs, I was curvy, I had C cup breasts and a bubble butt, my waist was tiny and my hips were only slightly curved, and I stood at a whopping 5'6.

I made my way to the back porch and couldn't help but laugh at the sight of mike, cigarette in hand, kicking a soccer ball at tony and two other boys who conveniently tackled mike as I made it on to the porch and lit my cigarette. I stood and watched them shoving and running around their yard. That is until tony noticed me as I sat Indian style in the middle of my porch. His head perked up and he waved. I let the smoke exit my nose and I waved nervously back.

"Addie!" Mike yelled and ran over to me.

"Mikey!" I said back with as much enthusiasm as he had.

"Why are you sitting there like that?" He asked me as I ashed oh the porch. I just shrugged my shoulders and gave him a blank stare. Before I knew it tony and the other two boys were running over to see who mike was talking to.

"Who is this beautiful girl your hiding over here mike ?" The shorter boy with the blonde and brown spikey hair asked.

"Hey we match" I pointed to his hair then mine, he blushed.

"I'm Jamie! I see you already know Mikey here!" He explained. I stood up from we're I sat and shook his hand.

"I'm Addison, I just... Well I just got here last night" I haven't exactly moved in yet, considering my stuff wasn't here yet.

"Hey Addison" that voice. It made me blush instantly. I smiled nervously at tony, and gave him a small wave.

"Hey! I know I'm short but I still exist ya know!" EVery one giggled at the only boy whose name I didn't know.

"Sorry almost didn't see you there" I joked causing Jamie, mike and tony to almost die with laughter.

"I'm Vic, and your mean" he stated seriously, Im sure I had a shocked look on my face. But Vic couldn't hold it and he laughed.

"For a second there I thought I had really upset you!" I laughed and took another drag of my cigarette.

"Guys, this is the girl I promised we'd make dinner for tonight, since we sort of woke her up getting home last night" Tony stared me dead in the eyes and winked at me. I melted under his stare, but I didn't let myself show it.

"Oh my gosh were so sorry ! We got home later than expected and we know the bus can be pretty loud" Jamie explained nervously, mike hit him in his side and rolled his eyes at him.

"It's ok guys, really." I laughed and walked closer to them.

"Why don't we all come help you move in?" Vic spoke up, I let out a loud sigh.

"I wish you could, but nothing's here yet. I only have my clothes in there" I pointed my thumb in the direction of the house

"So your house is completely empty ? How are you sleeping?!" Mike asked concerned.

"Oh... I uhm have a blow up mattress and some covers." For some reason I felt embarrassed to answer that question.

"That's Unacceptable!" Vic gawked.

"It's seriously ok you guys, I'm a big girl" this made tony laugh so hard he nearly choked.

"What's so funny tony?" I raised and eyebrow at him and put out my cigarette.

"You shorter than Vic! " he managed to say through his laughter.

"So? Doesn't change the fact that I'm not a child" I flipped him off and took out another cigarette.

"Hey why don't you come over for awhile?" Mike suggested as he offered me his lighter.

"I don't want to Intrude, you guys barely know me and all." I looked off towards the clouds and smiled. The wind blew my hair lightly past my face. I love being outside.

"We'll we would all feel bad knowing your sitting in an empty house over there" Tony said smoothly, all the guys nodded their heads in agreement.

"Why not?" I shrugged and started to walk to my porch door so I could walk around to their house.

"Don't be silly come here" mike gestured holding his arms out with his cigarette in his mouth.

I walked over to him and he lifted me up as if I weighed nothing and brought me over to their porch. I giggled at how unbelievably tall mike seemed when I was actually stood next to him.

"Wow mike... Your way taller now that I'm next to you" he looked down to me and laughed.

"You really are short! Come here Vic lets compare!" Vic hopped up next to me and I glared at mike.

"Wow I'm taller than someone!" Vic shouted and high fived Jamie.

"Not by much" tony laughed and rested his hand on my shoulder. I felt all my nervousness wash away under his warm hand. He gently rubbed my back before heading inside.

"Who wants to watch a movie ?" Jamie asked following tony, Vic hurried after him. Me and Mike hung back until we finished our cigarettes.

"So what brings you to San Diego? And without all your belongings no less?" Mike asked as I leaned my back against the porch railing and he sat in a chair across from me.

"Well, that's a story for a different day Mike." I put out my cigarette and gestured for him to take me inside. He laughed and held out his hand to me to help him out of his seat. I pulled him up and he held the door for me.

Their house was a lot like mine, just bigger. They had two bedrooms downstairs, where I had one. Their kitchen was twice the size as mine and same goes for their living room. Surprisingly the house was tidy and had a pleasant smell of various types of colognes.

"What movie do you want to watch Addison?" Tony held up two movies and I smiled. It was an easy choice.

"HARRY POTTER!" Mike yelled from the kitchen causing me to laugh and shake my head.

"NO! Star Wars !" I pointed to the DVD in Tonys hands, mike groaned from the kitchen. "And call me Addie, tony" I smiled at him, his face flushed slightly as he turned away and put in the DVD.

"So Addie, what brings you to San Diego?" Vic as he sat next to me, putting me between him and tony.

"Just a change." I shrugged. I wasn't ready to tell these guys my entire story just yet. Keeping things short was simpler.

"Shhh! Star Wars!" Tony gawked and pointed to the screen. I nodded my head in agreement and watched Intently.

My favorite scene was on, Han was sat at the bar being accused by Jabbas huntsman. I felt a set of eyes on me as I mouthed the words to the scene. I shook the feeling of someone staring until I glanced up at tony. His mouth was wide open watching me in amazement.

"What?" I asked sternly not looking away from the movie.

"Nothing.. Er, well not many girls can actually sit and WATCH Star Wars.. Let alone like it." He stated with a shocked expression.

"I'm just special I guess" I flashed him a toothy smile, he blushed and hid his face from me slightly.

"I'm gonna start dinner guys! Hey, Addie?" Jamie asked me distracting me from the amazingness that was Star Wars.

"Yes Jamie?" He smiled.

"Are you allergic to anything ? Or a vegetarian like tony, or anything like that?" He asked nervously like he was going to offend me.

"Oh, uhm no, not at all" I gave him a reassuring smile as he ran into the kitchen.

"Guys! Harry potter is so much better!" Mike whined as the end credits rolled indicating star wars ended.

Me and tony jumped up from where we were standing and started 'singing' the credit song "DUN DUN! DADADA DUUUUUN DUN!" We shouted in mikes face. He just flipped us off and popped in a Harry potter movie.

"Your a nerd!" I laughed at mike and he flipped me off again.

"IM a nerd? Your Mrs. Star Wars over there! Your a SUPER NERD!" He stuck his tongue out at me.

"Super nerd? Real mature" tony defended me and rolled his eyes at mike. I felt Tony's hand brush my thigh as he scooted over for me to sit next to him. I was too nervous to move, but Vic pushed me slightly causing me to laugh and practically fall in to tonys lap.

"Whoa! What's going on in here?" Jamie asked walking in to see me face down near Tony's crotch. I blushed madly and shot up straight instantly.

"VIC pushed me I swear !" I pointed at him with a shocked expression.

I looked up to tony blushing madly, it was... Kind of cute.

"Well, dinners ready you guys! I hope you like it Addie" Jamie smiled as everyone got up from their seats. I bumped into tony and blushed wildly, he grabbed my by my elbows so I wouldn't trip any more than I already had.

"Sorry Tone" I whispered.

"It's fine Addie, don't be so nervous" he pushed me lightly into the direction I needed to go.

I was impressed Jamie had prepared an entire traditional Mexican meal. There was refried beans, tortilla shells hard and soft , all the fixing to make our tacos with, homemade chips, guacamole and churros. It smelled divine and I was excited. Mexican was my absolute favorite.

"Wow. This.... This is the best Mexican food I've ever had!" I complimented Jamie. He smiled and swallowed the food he had in his mouth.

"We'll feel free to come over anytime" I smiled and nodded in response.

"Where are you from? Jamie's cooking is great but it's nothing compared to some places around here" Mike said as I set my tacos down.

"I'm from North Carolina" I blushed embarrassed.

"Whoa, you came a really far way Addie!" Vic gawked and I tried to hide my emotionless expression that I knew I was showing.

"Yea... It was a long drive." I tried to have some emotion in my voice but I failed. Tony gave me a concerned look and cleared his throat.

"So Addie, what do you do?" I smiled, I loved this question. I loved what I do.

"I paint, draw and design for companies and some clothing lines" I smiled I loved my job, I knew I'd have more opportunities out her in California. I only had a few buyers and company's in NC, nothing compared To what I could have out here.

"That's awesome! Can we see some of your work sometime?" Vic asked genuinely interested.

"Of course! When my stuff gets here... Hopefully soon ill have plenty to show you" Vic smiled and I couldn't help but ask.

"What do you all do ?" They all got sly smirks on their faces and I grew kind of nervous.

"Were in a band, called pierce the veil, were working on our third album as we speak" my mouth fell open. I'm so stupid. I knew they all seemed familiar.

"Wow I'm so sorry I didn't notice sooner, I feel so dumb. A flair for the dramatic was amazing" I blushed and they all laughed.

"We're surprised you didn't notice earlier, nice to know your not a crazy fan girl" Mike joked and I hit his shoulder playfully.

"See now you all made me nervous" they all laughed as I showed them my shaking hands.

The rest of dinner the boys all told me tour stories, I was thankful they were no longer questioning me about my life. I don't like opening up to fast, and I didn't want to scare this wonderful group of men out of my life.
