When I woke up I noticed two things, I was in a bed that was way too comfortable than mine and I was wearing a dress. When I open my eyes I see that the bed I'm in has fine blue cotton sheets with matching pillows. The room is big and one wall is taken up by a TV, a Laker's jersey, and record sleeves (I don't know if that's what they're actually called but it's the best I got) from jazz players.
I found the bathroom and looked in the mirror, the makeup Piper had put on me last night is mostly gone but some of it is still there. My hair is back to normal.
I take a quick shower, and go back into the bedroom that I'm pretty sure is Carter's because I faintly remember waking up and seeing his dark skin before I went back to sleep. On the bed I see a pair of basketball shorts and a shirt that says Property of Alexandria University. I put them on and go out.
The apartment is huge, everything seems to have something to do with basketball, jazz, England, and Ancient Egypt. I see something move behind one of the couches but when I check behind I don't find anything.
After a bit of wondering I find Carter in the kitchen he was on the phone with someone and he seems like his was a word away from a shouting match with whoever he's talking with.
"Amos, I don't care if dad would have wanted me to be in charge I'm still in high school and I don't want to run your stupid company!" he yelled. "Any way dad didn't care about your company either that's why he was always in Egypt," he turns around. He sees me and I swear he blushes, "Amos I'll call you back OK?" he hangs up.
"So, who were you talking to?" yeah it was a rude but I can be pretty impulsive.
"That was my uncle he wants me to run his company and is trying to guilt me into doing it by saying that my dad would want me to even though my dad died doing something that took him as far away from it as possible," his eyes get wide for a moment like he was just as surprised as me.
"Um…" I say a little confused, no one has ever told me something so personal, oh and he isn't wearing a shirt which is really distracting. "What did your dad do?" I ask not sure what else to say.
"What?" he had been staring at me like he couldn't believe I was real, "Oh, he was an Egyptologist," he turns and I see a bruise on his arm.
"What happened to your arm?"
He looked down at it and laughed, "You're hard to pick up when you're asleep,"
I should have been embarrassed but I wasn't, "You carried me up here?"
He was about to answer when I hear a giggle from the other room. I raise an eye brow at him, he rolls his eyes. "Sadie!" he calls, "it is not nice to hide behind doors when people are talking, and you pored ice water on my head when I eavesdropped on your date last week,"
A girl comes out from behind the door, she has red streaks in her blond hair, much lighter skin than Carter, and blue eyes. She looks like she's in about the ninth grade and she's grinning.
"A this is my little sister Sadie,"
It was hard to see them as siblings but they had the same noses and the same way of smiling.
"So you're A Jackson, honestly I expected you to be taller,"
My jaw dropped this girl was a good ten inches shorter than me making her a good foot shorter than Carter but she was saying that I should be taller.
"She's annoying isn't she," I hear Carter say into my ear I'm startled then I get pissed, that's my move. I spin around and look into his eyes.
"Actually I think the right word was infuriating," if I was talking to a girl I would have put my hand on her hip but I decide to put it on his chest instead. I felt him tense then he put his hand on my hip.
We probably would have argued about what the best word to describe her but she interrupts us.
"If you guys are going to make out could you tell me so I can leave the room?"
We sprang apart "What!" we say together. I feel a blush rising up my throat. Sadie just grins.
"I should go," I say, "See you around Birdbrain," I don't know where the stupid nickname came but it made him angry so I gust turned and left.
After I went down stairs to get my spare key I gust crashed on my couch with a Coke, I had been sitting there for about an hour when I hear the doorbell. When I open the door I see Sadie with my dress and shoes from the night before.
"Hi!" she bubbled, "You left these in Crater's bathroom, I thought you might want them back,"
"Thanks?" I had kinda was hoping I'd never see that dress again but I took it any way.
I am about to close the door when she says, "Um… A, can we talk?"
It is admittedly a strange question nut she looks like she really had something to say and I did not want to get on her bad side, so I nod.
She came in and looked around. "It's not much but its home," (Harry Potter quote!) I say. There are only two bedrooms and one bathroom and the kitchen and a small living room.
"No it's cool it reminds me of the flat I grew up in when I was living with my grandparents," what is it with this family and saying personal stuff around me, I'M NOT A TRUST WORTHY PERSON!
"So you wanted to talk," I remind her.
"Oh yeah. Carter said you've dated half the girls in your school, I was wondering about that,"
"I have not dated half the girls in the school, he steals some of them from me. Do you have a problem with the fact that I'm a girl and I've dated girls?"
"What?! No I was just wondering because you seem to have a thing for Carter,"
I'm pretty sure she could see me blushing now. "I've dated guys to, and I do not have a thing for Carter!"
She grins, "Sure you don't. Was your first kiss with a guy or a girl," my jaw drops. I've know this girl for three seconds and she's asking who my first kiss was.
I am about to say that I'm not sure when I remember quite vividly what happened when I was on my first date in eighth grade, it was with Annabeth. Yeah I went out with one of my best friends, so what she's hot.
We were having dinner at some little diner my step-dad told me about mad we were talking and having a great time and when we were outside waiting for a table when she gust leaned over and kissed me, it was a nice kiss but for some reason I backed up and said,
"I'm a girl," Annabeth didn't care "Did you just ask me out on a dare?" she asked.
"What?! No. it's just, I've never kissed any one before and I wanted you to know,"
She just shrugged and kissed me again and this time I kissed back.
I blushed, "It was most definitely a girl,"
"Any one I would know?" this girl was so infuriating but I told her any way.
"Annabeth," I mumbled.
"Sorry? I couldn't hear you over that sound of my own breathing,"
"Annabeth," she squealed. "Really that's your reaction?"
She grinned, "Yup! So do you live alone?" this girl has a shorter attention span than me.
"No my mom and my step-dad are out of town for the weekend and my dad is out of town for business so I get the apartment to my self for the weekend,"
She opens her mouth, probably to ask another weird question but my phone goes off. I motion for her to wait and answer it.
"Hello Andromeda," it's my dad.
"Hi dad, whats up? And it's A," I really don't need another shouting match with my father about helping him with his company.
"Andromeda I was wondering if you would like to go see a movie with me over the weekend. My trip got canceled and I know you're alone this weekend and I think we some father daughter bonding time,"
I must say I am shocked we hadn't gone to a movie sense I was seven, but he sounds so nervous I feel sorry for him. "Sure dad but can we plan this later there's someone here right now."
"Is it your girlfriend?"
I laugh looking at Sadie who is so not my type, "No dad, just someone from school. I'll talk to you later,"
I hang up and hear my music start playing from the room, I want to scream Piper, I'm going to kill her, had put in a Taylor Swift CD and Love Story was playing. I like that song but a random stranger was listing to it in my trophy filled bedroom. It's embarrassing!
We were both young when i first saw you.
i close my eyes and the flash back starts,
I'm sanding there on a balcony in summer air.
see the lights see the party the ball gowns,
see you make your way through the crowd and say hello,
little did i know, that you Romeo, you were throwin' pebbles,
and my daddy said say away form Juliet-
The music stops and Sadie comes out of my room. She's grinning again I wish I could smack that grin right off her face but she just says, "Carter says that he wants you to go to that little coffee shop down the street from school with him after school on Monday," she doesn't even wait for my answer she just turns and leaves.
I start to giggle to my self but I stop. "Bad Annie you are not giggling because you got a date with Carter Kane." I called my self Annie! What's happening to me Annie is a three year old, you are a sixteen year old you shall not stoop to using a girls name!
Good job Annie, get yourself into a game about not falling in love and start falling for him before you've even made your first move.
Well instead of getting him to fall for me only to break his heart I'll get him to to fall for me and admit it that way I get the guy and I win.
"Bad Annie he'll never fall for you just get over it!"
Do you like it?! tell me plz!
