Just a little fright

~~Jarrett POV~~

"Crap I didn't see where she went. Well Eli that was Evelyn the girl I have to stay with until she either finishes school or her parents come back but I don't think that her parents are going to come back from what she told me," I said as I went into the house dropping the shopping bags in the kitchen. Eli followed closely behind me looking around the place. I grabbed a packet of bacon out of the bag and turned to the fridge when I noticed a note stuck to the fridge. "Hey Eli, your good with computers right," I turned to face him. He nodded as he opened a packet of biscuits. "Can you track a phone from a number?" I ask as a grin spreads across both our faces.

~~Evelyn POV~~

I was in my own wee world just strumming a few chords to try and figure out how this song I was writing would go I head the fence creak. I spend enough time here to know what it sounds like when someone climbs the French but this wasn't one person. No this was two. I could hear them coming closer so I quickly packed up my stuff and as quietly as possible I climbed the tree. I hid my guitar bag partially in a hollow in the tree and the rest by a branch covered in lush green green leaves. I moved so I was sitting on a branch with a clear view of the ground but from the ground I was hidden. Soon I heard some people talking. "It says she is just over there, check behind the tree," his voice sounded unfamiliar but the next voice I knew very well.

"Ok but I don't hear anything she had her guitar with her," it was Jarrett. I was going to teach them for following me how ever they found my spot. Soon Jarrett came into view he stood right in my sight and range. He stood completely oblivious to the fact that I was right above him. I took my chance and leapt off the branch.

I landed on his back and within a couple of seconds I had him pinned to the floor with his hands behind his back and my knee digging into his back. Jarrett was yelling things like "where the hell did you come from," and "Eli get your fucking arse over here and get her off me!" A small chuckle escaped my lips. "Dude hurry up she's enjoying it!" I heard footsteps rushing over taking my guess that it was that Eli guy I quickly climbed the tree to hide again. Eli came rushing over to find Jarrett face down in the ground looking bewildered. "She... Tree... Tackled... EVELYN!" I could see the confused look on Eli and Jarrett was getting slightly annoyed. I let out a small giggle. Sitting down on the branch I swing backwards so I was hanging upside down with my head poking out of the leaves. I pull on my shy facade and face Jarrett. He gave me a very stern look. Tears welled up in the corners of my eyes.

"I-I'm sor-r-ry I didn't mean to run away its just that its my a-alone time," I could see the confusion on Eli's face turn to annoyance.

"Jarrett how could you upset this defensive girl and dude you made me track down a girl who was having alone time," he said as he punched Jarrett in the arm pretty hard causing him to wince in pain. I flipped back into the tree while they were distracted in arguing about what a waste of time it was tracking me down. I grabbed my stuff and jumped down on the other side of the tree out of site of them. I ran back home deciding to take a shower while Jarrett was out.

I came out of the shower dressed in my slouchy clothes ready to watch a movie when I bumped into a solid surface again. "You ran away again and what the hell was that pining me to the ground," Jarrett asked with his arms crossed across his chest. What the hell was up with this guy? Why did it bother him so much where I went and where? Sighing I just walked last him to my room. I grabbed the DVD I had planned to watch and was still going to watch. Jarrett had followed me all the way to my room and was following me down to the living room where I spotted a figure lounging on the couch. It was Eli. He looked up at me before going back to texting on his phone. 'I was going to have my movie time and nothing was going to stop me' I screamed in my head as I kneel down in front of the tv so I could get to the DVD player. I out the DVD in and letting it run through the adverts as I went to my secret cupboard and got the microwave popcorn out I plopped it in. Ever since I was little I always found pop corn popping amusing so as I was watching I didn't hear anyone come in until someone shouted in my ear, "BOO!" I screamed and tripped over my feet causing me to go head first into the work top. Every thing went black.
