Hey guys! :)
So, this chapter is pretty short, and doesn't play much of a big part in the story, but the next one will be better!
Thank you to .BeautifulDreamer.x, the Stafflord, Spring Jasmine Flower and samandfreddie38 for your reviews and for making me smile. :) I'm thinking of changing the title to iWasn't Brought Up That Way. Thoughts?
Disclaimer! Again, I don't own iCarly. :( I do own Jaxon, Emily, Parker and Dylan, though. :)
iCan't Believe It
September 7, 2030
Emily said in the orange seat nervously. She wasn't used to this, being out with someone and not having something go wrong.
"So, you liking Seattle so far?" Jaxon asked her, taking a sip of his smoothie. Emily nodded, giving him a small smile as she nervously looked around. I tall man walked up to their table, carrying what looked to be eggplant on a stick.
"Hey, Jaxon, would your girlfriend care for an eggplant?" the man asked Jaxon, smiling.
"She's not my girlfriend, T-Bo," Jaxon said, "T-Bo, this is Emily; Emily, this is T-Bo."
"Nice to meet you, sweetheart. I've known this boy since he was in his mama's tummy. Boy, could that little lady eat!" T-Bo said, grinning, "Where is your mama, Jaxon?"
"She has to go to work in about an hour, so probably watching Parker and Dylan," Jaxon explained.
Emily looked up to see T-Bo staring at her, which made her blush and look down. "You look familiar, but I can't put my finger on it."
"My dad used to live around here when he was younger, so that might be it," she explained quietly. Jaxon's eyes widened and a grin broke out on his face.
"Really? My mom grew up around here! They might know each other," Jaxon said, grinning. Emily looked up to see T-Bo with a knowing smile on his face.
"Yeah, I knew your dad. Used to come here everyday with his two best friends. Now, Jaxon, are you gonna buy an eggplant or not?" T-Bo asked, turning his attention back to Jaxon.
"No thanks, T-Bo," Jaxon said, and T-Bo walked away, "Sorry about him."
"He knows my dad," Emily said quietly, amazed. She has only known one person who knew her dad when he was younger, and that was her grandma, who was crazy. Jaxon checked his watch and his eyes widened.
"You wanna help me babysit my little brothers? My mom has to get to work soon," Jaxon asked as he got up.
"Uh, sure," Emily replied unsure, following Jaxon out of the store. They walked quietly until they got to an apartment building that Emily recognized. This was where she lived. A grin broke out on Emily's face, causing Jaxon to look at her confused. "This is where I live," Emily explained. A smile grew on Jaxon's face also as Emily ran inside the building. He followed her quickly, stopping when she froze in the entrance.
"What's wr-" Jaxon was cut off by the doorman screeching.
"No teenagers in my lobby!" Lewbert screamed at the two of them, which was what caused Emily to freeze in her place.
"Can it, Lewbert!" Jaxon shouted at him as he gently pulled Emily along, "Just ignore him, he's a lunatic." Emily nodded slowly, her eyes still wide. "So what floor do you live on?"
"8, I live on floor 8. 8-D to be exact. My dad says it's his old apartment," Emily explained quietly, still shaken up by Lewbert. Jaxon looked at her concerned.
"Hey, you okay? It's just Lewbert," he asked her quietly.
"Yeah, just- just caught me off guard," Emily explained, shaking her head quickly, then trying to give him a smile, "What floor do you live on?"
"We live in 5-G," Jaxon said as the elevator dinged and they walked in. He clicked the 5 button and the doors closed. "So where did you live before you moved here?"
"A small town right outside of Phoenix, Arizona," Emily explained. The elevator went silent until the doors open. She followed Jaxon as he walked down the hallway until he got to apartment 5-G.
