Hidden Talent

Chapter 11 - Didn't See That Coming

Mansion house onto the side.

-------------------------------------------

"So, what's your name." the guy asked me.

"I don't think I should tell you," I answered.

"Why? Are you someone famous," he asked. Then added in a whisper that I was able to catch. "Which I doubt," he gave a side glance. He had a grin displayed on his lips.

I playfully hit his arm. He knew full on that I would react to his last comment.

"Hey, you should know not to hit a person while they are driving." The smirk still in place.

"You're a stranger. Why would I let someone I don't know something so personal like my name." He gave me a side glance which held a weird expression upon it. "Plus, you yourself told me not to give strangers my name."

"You seriously don't know who I am," he questioned me like I should know.

"No." I gave him a weird. "Should I? Are someone famous." I smiled as I quoted him.

"Haha," he faked laughed. "Now you're a comedian aren't you?"

"No, but I could be if I wanted to." I smart talked him.

I looked ahead of me, towards the road.

"Why is it taking so long to get there," I asked the stranger sitting beside me.

"Like I told you before, it takes a bit to get to the actual house. First, we have to pass the gate. Then we have to weave through the endless looking forest full of trees and shrubs, taking different roads before we get to the mansion of the house. Didn't they tell you in the phone call or e-mail they sent out to everyone?"

"No. unfortunately I didn't get the memo."

"Man it Ty." I whispered to myself.

"You know Tyler?" he peeked at me before focusing his eyes back on the road.

"Yea. He's one of my friends. Why? Do you know him?"

"Of course," he answered excitedly. "I love that dude. He's basically like my brother."

"That close, huh?"

"Yup. I can't wait to see him again. That's why I'm here."

I looked at the side of his face questioningly. "What, hold on. You're not a contestant of the show?"

"No," he laughed like it was the funnies thing he's heard all day. "I'm here to help him out with the show."

"Oh." So he's just going to work for the show.

"Are you one of the contestants from the show?"

"Yea."

"How do you know Ty then and how did you become friends already? Did you two meet before this or are you a long lost friend he convinced to audition for the show you two could hang longer?

"Over the phone. We just had these connection, he just feels like a brother for me. No and no."

"I knew that boy could make friends fast but I didn't know he could do it that fast. Snap. That boy never fails to amaze me."

The thick trees began to part and a huge mansion appeared before us with several cars coming in and out.

"There's more than one entrance," I stated rather than asked as I saw cars immersed from the outskirts of the resembling looking woods surrounding the mansion.

"Yup, let's stick with that." I gave him a questioning look asking him what he meant in a silent way. Before I could ask him what he meant by that, he parked drove up to the mansion, parked the car, and got out.

He rounded the back of the car. I thought he went to get his luggage but instead he appeared at my door. He opened it and extended a hand to help me out of the vehicle.

"Thank you," I said as I took up his offer.

"Not a problem," he said as he flashed me a smile. I returned it as I got out of his car.

As he patiently waited for me to get out, with all the bags hanging on me, he began to rub the back of my fingers slowly. Once I was out, with a final pull from his side, I gave the stranger, that gave me a left and who was standing before me, still holding my hand may I add, a strange look.

He finally noticed my look between him and my hand. "You have really soft hands." He coughed out after he dropped my hand as if it was on fire.

"Thanks," I said in more of a questioning way.

"Is the trunk open?" I asked him after some time of awkward silence.

"What," he asked thoroughly confused.

"The trunk of the car. So I could get out my suitcases." I said slowly to him.

"Oh, yea. Here, let me help you," he said once he finally shook himself out of his daze.

He took out all my suitcases and soon enough I stood beside the house with my luggage beside me. I waited for stranger dude to get stuff out so we could go in together.

He looked up over his car and gave me a smirk. I gave him a small shy, awkward smile in return. He closed the back of his car's door and headed over to me. However, before he was able to get to me, people that were inside of the house rushed out, some girls were even screaming their heads off.

I looked over all the commotion in confusion. I followed the direction they were running towards. Strange. I mean, not strange but stranger dude.

Stranger dude was surrounded by people. I couldn't even see him throughout the whole mess.

"He must have been the famous one then." I shrugged it off and just headed into the mansion house, in search of Tyler. He sure was going to get an ear full from me. Sending me here without direction through the wood like land outside.
