Kenny Struggles To Get Along With Bella

Kenny sat awkwardly at the dinner table as the trio waited for their meals to arrive, he still felt like a fish out of water. His blue jeans and plain t-shirt made him stick out like a sore thumb, and it was all the worse when he compared himself to the girls at the table. Since Juliet knew she was coming here she had packed one of her nicest red blouses and knee-length black skirts and Bella...Kenny flicked his eyes over to the older redhead. She was sporting one of the nicest deep green dresses he'd even seen. It was folded over itself and kept tied together with a leather belt around her toned stomach. This allowed her large heavy breasts to be on perfect display, and then add in her light but effective makeup and perfectly brushed and style amber hair, and she looked like a goddess.

Of course this was only from looks alone, if Kenny was make a honest comparison, he might have compared Bella to a witch. Since he saw her at his house the other night, Kenny had been subjected to nothing but cold glares, dry tones, and more often than not, outright ignored by the college girl. As far as he knew there was never an instance where he insulted the woman, in fact, the few times he had met her before this summer, Bella was a fun-loving, flirty girl who had fun with everyone. Now, with a snap of a finger, she had the personality of a politician in a debate and Kenny...he seemed to be her rival.

Even Juliet had to admit to feeling the odd tension that seemed to be lingering since their arrival. Bella wasn't being herself and she was picking up on the glances at Kenny, "I'm...sorry, I didn't have a chance to call you about Kenny coming with me. It was last second and I could have sworn you said I was welcome to bring a friend along,"

"It's perfectly fine, Julie. I'm not upset," Bella calmly reassured her as a waiter moved to the table with two bottles of wine and three glasses, "Thank you, you can put these on my room as well," The man respectfully nodded and walked away without a word, "Drink?"

"O-Oh, um, sure just one. I don't want to get you in trouble considering we're...you know, under-age?" Juliet agreed as Kenny stared at the redhead in surprise,

"Nothing to worry about, I'm the one who ordered, and I'm allowing you two a long sip," Bella dryly joked as she filled the three glasses before peering to Kenny, "You seem to have something on your mind," Kenny flinched, "Go on, ask,"

"S-Sorry...I just...You have a room here?" Kenny softly asked, "Is that...come with employment?"

Bella let out a murmuring laugh, "I'm not a member of the staff here Kenny, I'm a preferred guest,"

"What do you do to become a preferred guest in the nicest hotel around?" Kenny blankly asked back only for him to suddenly feel a sharp kick in the shin from Julie,

"Forgive him for being so rude Bella, he doesn't realize it's rude to ask other people personal questions like that," Juliet quickly said giving Kenny a hard glare that clearly meant, "Shut up!"

Didn't sound like a rude question to me. Kenny internally grumbled as he rubbed his leg, "No harm done," Bella waved off,

"So, um, I was pretty surprised by the invite yesterday," Juliet smiled as she decided to take control of the conversation, "What brought it on,"

"Honestly? Quinn," Bella admitted in a softer tone, "After all your talk about getting in the same sorority at BMU, Quinn started to beg me to put in a good word to Rachel so we'd accept you both next year. I figured if that was going to happen I should work on us becoming better friends,"

Juliet stood right up in her seat, her face positively glowing, "That would be so amazing, thank you so much Bella!"

Huh, I guess she still had some kindness hidden in there somewhere. Kenny thought to himself.

"So I hear you might forgo college to become a detective?" Bella asked causing Kenny to snap to attention. He was surprised that she was talking to him directly, but for her to actually hear about that and keep it in mind threw him right off, "That's what going to the gym is about right? Getting in shape for the next recruitment drive?"

"Y-Yeah," Kenny nodded peering to Julie who happily smiled, "Julie told you?"

"And Quinn...and Ellie," Bella softly hummed, taking a sip of her wine, "That's an admirable goal; helping people,"

"That's how I see it, I just...want to help my town, and...well, not much happens around there, but no place is crime free," Kenny explained as Bella slowly nodded,

"Like that **** in the parking lot at Club 36?" Bella asked causing both Clark's too stare back at her in shock,

"The what?! Kenny, what is she talking about?!" Juliet exclaimed,

"Uh...how did you..." Kenny droned back to Bella,

The redhead sipped her wine again and set the class down, "Ellie told me last week. It was lucky that you happened to be nearby, and quite brave for you to step in and protect her,"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, what? Kenny why didn't you tell me about this? Why wouldn't Elle?" Juliet gasped,

"Nothing to tell love, Kenny stepped in and apparently had some quick thinking and got enough information for the cops to catch him quite quickly. He's already been arrested," Bella assured her,

"Oh...oh that's good," Juliet breathed a sigh of relief and took a large gulp of her wine, "Gosh, I can't believe something like that nearly happened to her,"

"Mmhmm," Bella hummed in agreement as the trio went quiet once again. "Oh!" Bella looked to Juliet intently, "I never got a chance to ask, but how is that medicine working for you?"

Kenny's eyes widened and Juliet's cheeks immediately started to go flush, "Y-You mean the pills f-for my cramps. T-They work great! Yes, thank you!"

Bella's eyes narrowed, "No, I'm talking about the supplements I gave you, what are you --"

"Oh those!" Juliet interrupted and glanced to Kenny, "They didn't work for me! A-And I'd prefer not to talk about this in front of Kenny, please,"

Bella sat back in her seat and shrugged, "Okay, that's fine," The redhead's attention turned to Kenny, "So Kenny, are you still a virgin?" The teenager choked on his drink, spraying some out over his arms and shirt. "Oh Jesus Kenny," Bella chastised as Juliet patted her coughing cousin's back, "There's a bathroom right back there, go clean up,"

Kenny scooted out of his seat, gave the redhead a hard glare, and walked off. He could faintly hear Juliet in the background, "Bella, what is wrong with you? That's hardly an appropriate question to ask."

A few minutes later Kenny finished washing off his face and arms in the bathroom sink and grabbed a few paper towels to dry himself. Jesus Christ, this couldn't be more awkward if I tried. I don't know what I must have done to piss Bella off, but this is crazy. I need to get the hell out of here before this somehow gets worse. The teenager frowned as he looked at himself in the mirror. Now I wish I just stayed home, I could've gone and saw Nikki or something.

Kenny tossed the used towels in the trash and headed out of the men's room only to freeze in place as he found Bella standing before him with crossed arms, "That took you some time,"

"Oh, sorry, were you waiting to use it?" Kenny apologized, diverting his gaze,

Bella let out a small scoff, "Why would I be waiting to use the men's room?"

"I don't know, Bella," Kenny retorted in a slightly gruff tone, pushing past her, "Look, let's just finish the meal and then Julie and I can go home and we don't have to talk anymore,"

"Hold on, I'm not done talking with you," Bella firmly said in an ordering tone,

"Well I'm done talking with you," Kenny muttered back, his frustration finally coming to the surface, "I mean really, Bella, you can't just expect me too --" Kenny began to rant as he looked back only to freeze in place,

"Have your attention now?" Bella simply stated. Kenny's eyes were glued at the redhead's chest where he hand tugged down at the side of her dress allowing one of he large, soft, D-cup breasts to spill out into the open. Taking the tit in her she lifted it in a presenting fashion, "I can tell you've been looking at them. You wanted to see, didn't you?" Kenny gulped, "You can feel if you like,"

"R-Really?" Kenny's voice cracked hard,

"As long as you'd like, but in return," Kenny's eyes lifted to meet Bella's gaze, "I have two questions for you,"
