Gavin ~ Chapter 4

When I made the reservations I didn't account for the time difference and it was to late to eat. I didn't let it discourage me though and I called Loretta and asked her to come over. She was so excited that I was back in town that she just jumped straight in to my arms. Man I love this woman and I know I am making the right  choice. None of the others ever make me feel the way I do than when I am with Loretta.


Since she already ate and it was to late to make the reservations we headed to the dance club instead. We danced and had a few drinks, then right before closing I got down on one knee and proposed. You could see the shock on her face and I was worried for a moment that she was going to say no. She didn't, she said yes!


I really didn't want to wait to long before we got married but I did want to have a bachelor party first. So the next day I called my dad and told him the good news before he could freak out over my reputation. He was so happy for me and proud that I was finally settling down. 

We planned the party for later that night after I got off work. I ended up getting another promotion at work today. I am now a Aquatic Ecosystem Tweaker. I am getting pretty close to my LTW now and I think it is a great time to get married and finally give my father what he has been waiting for. 

The bachelor party was a great success, I had a lot of people show up and they all had a great time. My father gave a toast to tell everyone how proud he was of me and then he sprayed the crap out of me with some champagne. It was all a lot of fun!




Loretta and I were both really busy with work now and we didn't get to see each other that often since the engagement. It made it really hard to plan a wedding. I have received a few promotions at work and am now a Top Secrect Researcher. I am almost done with my LTW and I can't seem to pin down my fiance long enough to marry her. This was starting to bother me a little. 

My mother had called and asked if I wanted to come over for a party and I thought that sounded like a great idea. I really needed to get out of the house other than to go to work so I headed over to her place. When I got there no one else was there yet and my mom was playing one of her instruments. I sat and listened to her play for awhile and it helped calm all my stresses away. 


Then to my surprise Loretta walked in, I had no clue she was coming too. She told me that her and my mother had planned for us to come over and get married tonight. Nothing big and grand just us and our family. I thought it sounded perfect. 


So with our family looking on we exchanged our vows and rings. We are now husband and wife, I don't think I could be any happier than I am right this minute. It was even more special than anything we could have planned together. 




After we finished the little ceremony we didn't hang around my parents house much longer. I wanted to get a start on our honeymoon right away. When we got home we both were feeling a little frisky and spent the whole night in the bed, however, we were not sleeping. 


In fact that is where we spent the next few days was in the room, we only came out to eat and use the restroom. When we showered we did it together, I never wanted the honeymoon to end. 


Although we both wanted the honeymoon to last forever, we knew it couldn't. We did have to work on our skills for work and eventually go back to work. So I headed out to my garden and did some tending. It was hard to maintain my garden though because it seemed every time something started to grow a stray animal would come along and gobble it up. My apple tree has been doing very well though and managed to grow all the way. 


Loretta needed to get her athletic skill up because she wants to be a Super Star Athlete some day. So she started to work out every morning while I was tending my little garden. 


The one thing she wasn't used to with me was the papz that would some times wander in to my yard for photos. Over the years I have gotten used to them but it is some thing that Loretta has never dealt with before. While were having an intimate moment out back one of them came around and started taking photos. Loretta got really upset and started giving the elderly woman some really evil looks. So I told Loretta to go inside and I had a word with my pap and asked her to leave. 



Little did I know was that this day was only going to get worse for Loretta. When you marry someone famous your personal life and the personal life of your family gets a lot of publicity and it is not always good.

Gavin ~ Chapter 3

It seemed as soon as I booked my flight my phone was ringing off the hook. I peeked at my caller id and saw it was my father. No doubt he heard about my new reputation and was having a fit. I decided to leave my phone at home right then and there.

When I arrived in Paris it took my breath away. I was staying at a shared lodge that had many other guest from around the world there too. The place was huge and had a very homey and comfortable feeling.


Feeling the jet lag from my flight, I just wanted to relax and take it easy for awhile. I checked out the book shelf and found very many interesting books that I have never even heard of before. I ended up spending the whole day sitting and reading. 


Later that night I was really hungry and wanted to try some local food. I made my way down to the town square and went to a little cafe I ordered some Bouillabaisse. It tasted amazing!


After I finished eating I really wanted to learn how to make it. So I walked over to the bookstore to buy the recipe. However they were fresh out of copies. He said that recipe was a hot item around here and it never stayed in stock long but to check back tomorrow. 


I didn't realize how exhausted I was until I walked out of the bookstore. In fact I was so tired I couldn't make it back to the hotel so I just plopped down on a bench in town square for a quick nap. It turned out not to be a quick nap and I ended up sleeping there the whole night. Good thing nobody here knows me or it would have been all over the papers I am sure. 


I was feeling well rested and only a little sore from the bench so I decided to go sight seeing today. I headed to the gallery first, I thought this would be a great place to think and try to sort out my feelings. 


I was right too, starting at some of the art work I was totally lost in thought. I thought of each woman one by one and tried to think of why I cared for them. 

Elli was my high school sweetheart even if she was never my girlfriend. We grew up together and knew each other well. Loretta was someone that I grew up with too but not in the same way as I did with Elli. Loretta and I were only friends and I never even thought twice about her until we were grown. At first I thought it was because she was no longer a vampire but that can't be right because Daisy is a vampire now and I still have feelings for her. Which brings me to Daisy, I like being around her and I think she makes a great friend and sex with a vampire is amazing. Actually the sex with all of them was amazing so I need to just take that out of the equation. Ugh....this is so hard.

I needed to head back to the hotel and shower, I was stinking up the place and people were starting to notice. When I got back though I just stared at myself in the mirror. How was I ever going to make this decision? 


With my head still whirling I thought exploring a tomb would help ease my thoughts and I was right. 

I dug up some ancient coins.


Found a skeleton, which really gave me the creeps. Let me tell you that is something that you never think you will see. 


I even stupidly stuck my hand in a hidy hole thinking I would find something special and I got covered with bugs. It was so gross but I did find something. A baseball with the name of Fouchier on it. 


I left the tomb and found a phone directory to look up the name. I saw there was a store called Fouchier General Goods and decided that would be a good place to look for the owner. It turned out her name was Estelle and that was her great grandfathers major league ball. She was extremely grateful for me bringing it back, her family thought it was lost forever.  


I was so tired after my day of exploring that I climbed in to the tent Estelle had in the store and went right to sleep. I think she didn't mind or tell me to leave because she was so happy that I returned her family heirloom. This time I did only make it a little nap and ended up back at the hotel for my last night. 


When I awoke in the morning I felt refreshed and my head was clear. I stared out the window over looking the river and thought, I know who I want to be with now and as soon as I get back I am going to ask her to marry me. I am not going to wait and let her slip away from me. That is a mistake I will never make again for as long as I live. 


It was time to head to the airport and go home. I was excited to be heading back and get a move on with my life. I know that I will be causing some heartache for two woman but I can't let that distract me. I already called and made reservations for our dinner and I planned to propose this same night. 

Goodbye Paris and hello my future wife.

Gavin~ Chapter 2

I have decided to go through some therapy to try and get rid of my insane trait. After my encounter with Loretta I went a little off the deep end and found myself acting like a dog. It freaked me out a bit! But after weeks of therapy my doc said she thought I was more of a hopeless romantic than insane. This made me feel loads better and you know I think she is right.


To celebrate being cured of my insane trait I headed to where else but the dance club. I wanted to mingle and meet some new people. I chatted with some girl while I was eating and then met a woman named Daisy.



I was rather attracted to Daisy so I asked her what her sign was and now it makes sense. She is a Scorpio which is compatible with me and we are both hopeless romantics. We ended up drinking and dancing the night away till the bar closed.



Elli surprised me the next morning by stopping by. We hung out in our favorite spot, my hot tub. We usually make good use of the hot tub but this time we just soaked and talked. I am not sure why but things felt off between us, maybe it had something to do with the fact that I kept thinking about Loretta. But then again, Elli was acting distant too. 



 My phone rang and Elli suddenly said she had to go and rushed off. I didn't know what that was all about and little did I know I was about to find out.

It was my father on the phone, who by the way is an elder now. He told me that he just read the paper and Elli and I were the big news. I had no clue what he was talking about because we have barley even seen each other over the last few weeks. Apparently Elli and my best friend John Paul have officially started dating. There was a big scandal about the whole thing because everyone thought that Elli and I were dating. I was in shock because she was just here and didn't say a word about it. That has to be why things felt weird between us. Maybe she was trying to work up the nerve to tell me or something.

I explained to my dad that I never actually asked Elli to date me. He was furious of course because he didn't want the bad publicity for the family. He was also concerned because he didn't know how I was going to carry on the family legacy if I didn't make things official with the woman he thought to be my girlfriend. It took quite a long time to calm him down. I am still young after all why should I settle now!


After the weird encounter with Elli and the sour conversation with my father I needed some good company. So I called Daisy to see if she wanted to come hang out for awhile. She agreed and we spent a lot of time in the hot tub.


We talked for hours about everything you could think of. She was a great woman and I very much liked spending time with her. I could see this becoming a great friendship hopefully with benefits.


I am pretty pissed still that my best friend started dating what amounts to my high school sweat heart. So I decided to head to his house and confront him about it. I guess I shouldn't be that mad about since I have been flirting with many different women and I never asked Elli to date me. I think I took our relationship for granted a bit, I never dreamed that she would move.

When I got to John Paul's house we had it out. He was sorry that he didn't tell me but he said he didn't really know how to. Elli was always talking to him about me and how I never have asked her to officially be mine. One thing lead to another and they fell in love. I still felt hurt but I forgave him in the end. Who wouldn't fall for Elli and I was a dope for not making her mine. Oh well we all learn from our mistakes and I intended to learn from this one.


When I got home I called Loretta first thing and invited her over. I wanted that kiss I never got the first night and she was more than willing. Still having strong feelings for her that almost made me forget about Elli helped me realize that I definitely needed to learn from my previous mistake. So I asked Loretta to be my girlfriend and she said yes.



She spent the night with me and we made things official over and over again. It was by far one of the best nights of my life. Even better than that first night in my new home with Elli.



After Loretta left I got a phone call from Daisy asking if I wanted to hang out. I thought that sounded like fun and told her to come on over. When she got there I was a little shocked because she was a vampire now. I didn't really have to much time to process it because she immediately gave me some flowers. I liked them so much that I kissed her. It was weird like all of a sudden I couldn't get her off my mind. Well one thing led to another and I am not sure really how it happened but we ended up in the bedroom. I'm sure you know what happened next.



Later that night we went out to eat, well I ate and she drank plasma juice, so it was kind of like a date. We headed back to my house and she spent the night with me.



When I woke up in the morning I was a little freaked out by the whole thing. I had crazy dreams about marrying Elli, Loretta, and Daisy all at the same time. My head was a mess, I am not sure what I am doing. Did I love Elli or Loretta or Daisy? I just didn't know anymore, they are all amazing.

I needed to get away from everyone and clear my head so I hopped out of bed and made flight arrangements to Paris.


I think this trip is going to be just what I need and just in time for me to find out that I now have a cheater reputation. Maybe I will leave my phone at home so my father can't phone me while I'm gone. He is going to go ballistic when he finds out about my reputation.




Gavin~ Chapter 1

The day before my graduation my mother went in to labor and gave birth to a boy just like my father predicted. I now had a new little brother named Xavier and he like me looks just like our father. She was relieved that it was before I graduated at not the day of.



Everyone except Willow got the day off for my graduation. The private school would not let Willow leave though because they said it would disrupt her studies. I was a little sad about that but they did let her phone me and we talked for awhile. My mother was very much excited that I was graduating and she could barley contain herself.


I graduated with honors which was no surprise because I did stay on top of my studies. The part that surprised me was that I was voted most likely to offend others. That had me and my family laughing a little.


Elli was there as well and she congratulated me with a big kiss. After the ceremony was over we decided to go to the Grind to celebrate even more. No more homework, no more books, no more teaches dirty looks! It was time to party.



I got so wasted at the  dance club and by the time I got home I just curled up in front of the door and passed out. My mother thought it would be funny to wake me up bright and early with her music. Don't get me wrong she is a wonderful musician but it doesn't sound so good when your head is pounding.



Right then I decided that I couldn't live here anymore. My father had told me that he would have a house built for me if I wanted to move out but I couldn't wait that long. But I found a nice house that I felt was perfect for me and bought it right away. It was only across town so I would still be close to them but not to close.



I invited Elli over that night to show her my new house and we christened it the proper way in the hot tub. It felt good knowing that my mother wouldn't be coming out of the house at any moment to yell at me.



The next few months were amazing! I loved being on my own, the only downfall was that I had to do all the cooking and I must admit I was not that great at it yet.


I worked on my fishing skill for work although I was already great at fishing. It was something I did a lot growing up. I loved my job at the science facility and even got promoted to a Useless Contraption Manipulator.


I went out to the clubs a lot for promotional work, this was probably my favorite kind of PR work to do. The other great thing about it was no one could complain that I drank a lot because it was all celeb work.


I decided to build a bar out back and starting teaching myself how to make drinks. My first drink was terrible but with everything I'll get better with practice.



Elli spent the night with me a lot too. We really didn't get to see each other that much during the day because we both worked a lot but at night she was always here and every morning I would send her off with a kiss.



My dad called me up the other day and asked if I would come by for a visit because they had something they wanted to talk to me about. So I headed over to find out what was going on. They told me I had two new sisters. They had twin girls again named Katina and Tamara. That was a little surprising, especially since they didn't even bother to call and tell me my mother was pregnant.


I decided to go out to the dance club that night and let loose. While I was there I ran into Loretta. You might remember her as the girl that got beat up at my slumber party the night I was brought home by the police. Back then she was a vampire but she hated it and I guess got a cure for it from the science facility.

I never thought much about her when we were teens. I have no attraction to vampires but I have to admit, now that we are grown and she is human, she is amazing! I ended up asking her to come to my house to hang out and she agreed.


We flirted all night but it didn't go any farther than that. A little after 2am we were both exhausted so I drove her home, I wanted her to spend the night but didn't ask. I walked her inside and said goodnight. Leaving there was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I don't know what it is about her now but we have an amazing connection. It has to be because she is human now.


When I left Loretta I decided to walk home to think about all these feelings I was having for her. I felt a little guilty because of Elli but we are not even officially dating yet. I have never asked her to be my girlfriend so in a sense it can't really be cheating. Then again Loretta and I didn't even kiss, we only flirted so that doesn't count anyways.

While walking I ran into my aunt Melody who was very pregnant. We chatted for awhile and she told me that she has just gotten married a few months ago to Shayne Ugli after they found out she was pregnant. I was a little shocked because Shayne was one of my friends and spent the night at my house a few times when we were teens. I can't believe he never told me that he was hooking up with my aunt. How weird is it that my friend is now technically my uncle. I wonder what his dad Kai thinks about all this?



I have had quite a few shockers today. First my parents had twins again, Loretta is human now and we have this magnetic attraction for one another, and the weirdest of all is my friend married and got my aunt pregnant. Man I could really use a drink or two or three!
