A/N: CARMELA'S OUTFIT BY THE SIDEEE

---------------------------------------------------------------

TATE'S POV :

Feeling the warming covers being pulled off of me, I wrapped my arms over my bare chest, trying poorly to trap the heat.

"Get up you oaf, its your girlfriend's birthday!" Hearing Francesca's annoying voice made me reach for the pillow and wrap it over my head.

"Get out" I croaked from under my pillow.

It's not like I haven't got all day with Kitten? How's 1 more hour of sleep gonna hurt?

"She's already been here 3 times Tate" Raising my head, I opened 1 eye and saw that it was already 11:00am.

"You've filled her damn house with roses. Do you know how many delivery guys have been there Tate?" She screeched.

Laughing to myself, I finally sat up and stretched my arms out above my head;With a small grin on my face.

What was the point of having money and not spending it?

Leaning out my window, I saw her trying to find more space in her room to place the roses a guy had dropped off.

She was already fully dressed. That blonde wig of hers was in a ponytail while she tried to finish her makeup. She was wearing a tight white half top with a tight white skirt.

" You just gonna sit there and stare at her orr..?" Francesca mocked with a smile. Throwing a pair of boxers that were seconds ago on my floor at her, they landed perfectly on her newly straightened blonde locks.

Don't worry, they're clean? I know that, you know that,but did she know that?

Her ear piercing scream had me nearly in tears, making Giovanni yell something my mom would have killed him for saying, if she heard that was.

Looking back through my window, I wolf whistled so kitten could hear.

Coming to her window, she pouted her lips and lowered her brows. She really didn't know just how cute she looked when doing that.

"You're not dressed?" She said with disappointment in her voice.

"Your observation skills have gotten better with age" I laughed at how she was now wearing a point blank expression due to my comment.

"I thought we were going to grab something to eat?" Her soft voice sending a warm feeling down my spine.

"Don't worry Kitten, I'll be ready in 15, dont miss me too much beautiful." Sending her a wink, I saw her cheeks slowly start to turn a crimson colour.

Ah Kitten.

Carmela's POV:

Once he shut down his window, I backed away from mine and fell backwards on my bed.

I felt terrible about lying to him, but I had tonight planned to the T. My uncle Trevor who was an undercover cop would be here tonight (you know, just incase Kourtney decided to go full nutcase mode). I knew if I had told Tate, he wouldnt leave my sight.

It had to be me and Kourtney, no one else.

I even mustered up the courage to call Honey yesterday and asked if she could distract Tate for the night.

***

"Hello?" Honey's tropical accent echoed from the other line.

"Hi, it's me...Carmela" The line went silent at first, I thought she had just hung up on me. Saying 'hello' about 3 more times, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"The bitch that broke up my relationship, why're you calling me on this fine evening" Her words were muffled due to her shoving food into her mouth.

"It's about Tate...I really need your help" There was silence, more silence, and then even more silence.

"Im listening" She finally said

Sitting back up in my bed, I reached for my phone and read through the text Francesca had sent me last night.

'Make sure that as soon as Honey does whatever she does, you make a dash for it. You'll get to your house where everyone will be, and then we'll trap Kourtney and get her to admit everything.(You'll be bugged with a wire....my sisters idea :l) and then bammmm, you're no longer the equivalent to Lindsey Lohan in her bleach blonde hair phase! :D xxxx'

rolling my eyes with a small smile on my face, I placed my phone back down as I heard a knock on my bedroom door.

"Come in" I yawned with a stretch.

Kelsie poked her head into my room and beamed a smile of approval , I'm guessing that my appearance today was up to her standards, and that I no longer looked like a "homeless girl who thought the thrift shop was american apparel' I quote.

"Lover boys here" she tried to say seductively, and even added in a few smooches for effect.

Telling her that I'd be right down in a minute, I sighed to myself as she left to go back downstairs.

This was it, my plan was officially going to start after I made my way down those stairs.

I should be happy that that bitch will finally be taken down, right? I should be over the freakin moon....

So why do I feel that whatever has happened to me before, has nothing on what's going to happen to me tonight?

Shaking the unsettling thought from out of my head, I trudged my way over to my body length mirror, but frowned upon seeing my appearance.

This really wasn't the way I wanted to look while I turned 18, I just looked like another superficial girl from my school who cared more about their hair and makeup more than they did anything else.

Slightly chewing on my bottom lip, I took a deep breath through my nose and then exhaled.

Walking to my bedroom door, I gripped onto the doorknob and tried my best to walk out the room looking as elegant and graceful as girls did in the movies.

Once walking down the stairs I froze as I sat Tate waiting for me at the bottom of the steps.

You know in the movies when their date would be at the bottom of the stairs waiting for them, and then they'd do a close up on the dates face, as the pretty girl would walk down the stairs because he would have that look in his eyes. He would look like she had stolen his last breath, and that to him it felt like the whole world had just stopped. and it was like they were the only 2 people in the whole universe.

That's exactly what it was like at that moment.

Walking down the rest of the stairs, I couldn't help the laugh that escaped my mouth as he yanked me forwards by placing his hands on my hips.

"Have I ever told you how beautiful you actually are...even without that stupid wig" He spoke softly into my ear before tracing his lips against my neck.

Looking up at him from under my eyelashes, I shook my head slightly from left to right.

I suddenly let go another louder laugh as he lifted me from the floor and stared at me square in the eyes.

"Well Kitten, you're the most beautiful girl in my eyes." lowering me, my arms wrapped around his neck as he moved his lips in sync with mine. His lips turn up into a smirk as my tongue grazed over his bottom lip.

We were rudely interrupted by someone clearing their throat, as I broke away Tate quietly groaned and shot a death glare at the culprit....Pheonix.

"Haven't you 2 kids got somewhere to be?" He said with a grin on his face, He was only wearing a grin because he saw how Tate looked annoyed by him interrupting us.

"Oh fuck, did I interrupt something? how selfish of me." Phoenix mocked with a small laugh hidden behind his voice.

Tate continued to glare at him, but his face suddenly relaxed as he placed a smirk on his lips.

"Say Pheonix, on a scale of 1 to 10 how embarrassed did you feel when you saw me and your little sister scewing eachother?" Phoenix's smile vanished within seconds.

Smacking Tate in the chest, he didn't budge the slightest. His eyes were still watching Pheonix as he grew red in the face.

If Kelsie hadn't grabbed Pheonix by the back of his shirt, he probably would have lunged at a very proud looking Tate.

"You're welcome" Kelsie sang while dragging him up the rest of the stairs.

Watching Tate laugh to himself, I gave him a punch on the arm, making him stop and rub his upper arm.

"What was that for?" He whined.

I couldn't help the small smile that had appeared on my face.

He sounded like a small child when they didn't get their way.

"You sound so cute" I cooed while trying to pinch his cheek. He swatted my hand away from his face, and took a large step away from me.

With a face of disgust, he peered down at me with his greying eyes.

"Kitten... I'm a man, men aren't cute. We're manly and..man like" Rolling my eyes, I made my way outside with Tate hot on my trail.

"Oh too bad. I've always felt so..-" Clenching my hands in front of me, a fairly loud sound escaped my mouth, making Tate rush in front of me and black me from walking any further.

"Hold on. Did I say not cute? I meant I'm the equivalent to a new little puppy covered in cutness, and then dipped in some more cuteness." Rolling my eyes, I pulled him down by his collar and planted my lips on his.

His arm snaked around my waist as I pulled away, and gazed up at his glistening eyes.

"Come on, let's go lover boy"
