*Eli's POV*
I just got home from Adam's house we did the usually stuff. Play video games, read comic books, listen to music. We went back to The Dot to get lunch. I was hoping to see her there again. But she wasn't.
I found my mom sitting on the couch with a sleepy scarlet.
"Hey."
"Hey baby boy."
"I don't think I'm your baby boy anymore."
"You will always be my baby boy. No matter what" My mom is the only person that can make me smile. What can I say; I'm a mama's boy.
"So why did I have to be home now?"
"Well Todd and I have something to tell you, but he had to go to work so I'll wait until he gets home."
"No you can't do that. You can't tell me you have something to tell me, then not tell me. The anticipation is killing me. Just tell me."
"Fine, we hired a hired a nanny. She is moving in with us. She was looking for a job here, while she was in Florida. She really wanted a job here, all job, so I hired her as the nanny so she can live with us. She is around your age. She will be going to school with you and when she gets home she will take care of Scarlet, by the time you guys get home I will be getting ready to leave. Okay?"
"Stop, rewind, and play."
"Eli we are getting a live in nanny."
"Why can we get a nanny that lives in their own house?"
"She used to live here, but she moved with her parents. She missed it here so she started to look for jobs that the employer can provide a home. She is cheap. Only asking for $100 a month, so she can buy her necessities. But I told her that I'm giving her $150 for the first couple of months, until she gets settled. She told me her story and I couldn't deny her. She is moving in tomorrow. She came in town yesterday. I met her today. She is so sweet and nice. You would love her. She is taking the guest room."
"Mom! How come you didn't tell me anything? I live in this house too."
"I didn't think this was going to be a problem. I'm sorry I should have told you. But she will help all of us. She is good at balancing a check book for Todd. She is smart at school work. And good with babies, very good with babies. Why do you think Scarlet is sleeping? She was here and she took care of Scarlet like it was her own. I would never get Scarlet to sleep. I'm sorry that I made you mad."
"I'm not mad. I just wished that you told me. I could have helped pick out a nanny."
"I will never do it again."
"Okay." I started to walk to the stairs to my room. When my Cece stopped me, "And Eli, I think you should start to clean your room. I don't want to scare her."
"I think you would need to call Ghost Busters for that."
I went to my room turned on my music and started to clean my room. I went to pile of dirty clothing, I stared to smell them seeing if they were good to wear them again. None of them were clean. Then I picked up the random garbage on the floor: magazines, my 'used' tissues, plates, cups, comic books, and more clothes. I was cleaning my vanity when I stopped stared and stare at a picture of me, my mom, my dad, and Julia. It was our first date and my mom could stop taking pictures that night. As she it's 'Our Soon to Be Family' picture. But that nerved happen. We were 11 years old and in love.
I picked up the picture and place it on my night stand. I was getting late and all I had to clean was the bathroom me and the nanny are going to share.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
I woke up to the sound of my room door being closed. I whipped my head to that direction. To see no one standing there. I got up and went to do my morning retinue. I went into the bathroom to see girly products that was never in here before, on the counter. I brushed my teeth and went to go find my mom.
She was in living room eating her lunch. I looked that the clock it was 2 p.m.
"She is moving in now?"
"Yeah." Cece said as she covered her mouth, so I couldn't see her chewed food.
"You should go and say 'Hi'".
"Sure, I want to see of this girl that I am living with, sharing my bathroom with, and have to going to go to school with. This should be interesting."
I went to the room next to mine and opened it. I she girl kneeled down taking stuff out of a box. She was wearing jean shorts and red and white baseball looking t-shirt. I cleared my throat and she looked up and turned up. She looked at me with her blue eyes. Her eyes wondered to my shirt-less body.
"Clare?"
"Eli?"
"I see that you're helping my nanny unpack. How sweet" I taunted her.
"What are you doing here?"
"I live here. So how do you know my nanny?"
"Ha, I didn't know I have to sit you and your little sister."
"W—What? You're the nanny?"
"Wow, you're a quick learner."
"MOM!" I yelled running down the stairs to tell me mommy what happened.
"Mom, Clare is nanny?"
"No she is a hobo that's moving in."
"Mom." I said stern
"Yes. Why? Do you know her?"
"I know her. And I despise her."
"Um... Cece I'm done unpacking. I'm going to take a nap, if that's ok?" I turn to see Clare and the bottom of the step looking at Cece.
"Yeah, sure thing honey. Have a nice nap." My mom said, nodding. Clare smiled and went up the stairs.
"So you're saying that she lives with us now?" she shake her head," Well I'm going back to sleep, because if I don't I feel that I will do or say something stupid."
