Hawthorne~ Grayson

Ch 3: I finally enter the giant mansion

The next day at the gate of the Hawthorne House

I was staring at the bundle of keys in my hand. 
"Weren't they supposed to hand us a key?" Avery asked while looking at her bundle

"Legally they were, but technically the hawthornes are a pain in the ass" Alisa replied.

There were probably hundreds of keys in that bundle.

"Do you have any idea which key will go into that door?" I asked Avery, I knew she was good with puzzles, me on the other hand, I sucked at them and hated them. 

"You'll figure it out" a voice came from the intercom above the door

"Cut the games Jamie" Alisa scolded "This isn't fun it's annoying"

There was no reply, so Alisa said "Jameson, you there?"

"You'll figure it out mg" he replied

"MG?" I questioned

"Mystery Girl" Avery replied, and I wondered how she knew.

I was just staring blankly looking at each key, they were so different from each other, they were of different colors, designs, shapes everything.
I looked at Avery and saw her looking at their front part and then it clicked, don't judge a book by its cover right?

It matters what goes inside and I started looking at the front part too, they were all copies, they had the same lock end. They were copies and then I saw one which was different.

"This one" Avery and I said at the same time then laughed at the coincidence.

The intercom crackled but if anyone was at the other end they didn't say anything.

I opened the front gate.

"How did you know?" Libby asked

I heard Jamesons' voice respond, "Sometimes things that appear extremely different at the surface are exactly the same at the core"

After we came inside the ginormous house Alisa said, "Oren will give you a tour now, but just a warning, never lose your heart to a Hawthorne" and I had a feeling she was speaking from experience. Nash maybe? Cause the others were too young

Time skip to like a few hours or smthing

Somehow Nash was showing us around now. All of a sudden Libby came out of nowhere, "I put our stuff in our rooms and have you seen them, the rooms are like deluxe sweets," then she saw Nash and awkwardly stopped talking.

Nash peered through her hair and saw the black eye which Drake had given Libs. I am so glad they broke up because Drake was an eww person. 

"I am fine"  Libby said.
"I can see that" Nash replied "But if you'd like to give a name darlin', i'd take it!"

Gosh, that was so freaking cute and Nash had a whole cowboy look and that cute accent. Stop it! I scolded myself yet again. He is way too old for you and you are not supposed to be fangirling because of these brothers.

Then Oren asked Libby to come with him because he had some information about Drake and how he was spreading rumours about Avery, see eww person.

And Nash watched her go
"Stay away from her" Avery said
"Ya, she is with me, and I'm not leaving my girl anytime soon" I said

Nash was about to say something when I heard a thud, coming from a room to the left.
Then another thud, as Nash rolled his eyes.

"Follow me" he said as he lead us to the most breathtaking thing in the world. The library.
