Chapter 10 

"all right, bye will!!" I yelled over the roar of the bus. 

"bye brookie!" He yelled back, disappearing into his house.  

The only reason he rides the bus is because of me. He says that it's our "quality time", because rachel is always over wills house doing "whatever", so he doesn't get to spend any time with me. 

Yeah right. 

I know he probably feels sorry for me because I'm a junior without a car. 

Whatever.  

I walk into my house, locking the door behind me. 

"IM HOOOOOOMMMMEEEE!!" I yelled, hearing the sound of my echo throughout the mansion. 

I knew no one was home, but it made me feel good. I had been doing that since I was little, except that was when my parents weren't fighting as much. Then mom got a job, and dad started going out of town even more to fight cases. 

But no matter, I was proud of my parents for being what the are today, but I just wish they were home a little more. They were either working late, or going to "adult" parties with famous people and such. 

I walked upstairs and changed into a red tank top and some black sweats. 

I was shivering!! 

Putting my jacket on, I walked downstairs and into the kitchen. 

"hey sweetheart! How was school?" Connie, our in-house chef said. 

"fine" I mumbled. 

My stomach growled, and Connie giggled, sending a peal of bells into the air. 

"c'mon, hon, I'll make you something" 

"thanks, can I have a grilled cheese and a chocolate milkshake?" 

"sure, it'll be right up" Connie winked. 

I smiled, as I left the grand professional kitchen. 

Connie was sweet. She could be pretty annoying at times, but I guess that was a given, considering she lived with us. 

Connie was born and raised in las Vegas,  married and settled down as a chef in a restaurant.  However, the busy city life had her husband captivated,  and carried away. He went crazy gambling and drinking, and ended up cheating on her.  

Connie was crushed. Trying to escape her bad fortune, she had deserted her hometown in search for a job in another city.  So, her she was, working for the us in San Fran! 

We had taken Connie in "very graciously", as Connie had put it, because she and my mom were childhood friends. 

Connie is part of our family, except we pay her to make us food.  Our relationship escpecially is special. She would do anything for me, and vice versa. 

I walked down to the media room, plopping on the couch. I got the remote from the coffee table and clicked on the tv. 

Huh. Guess who was the first person I saw? 

My mom, talking a million miles an hour.

"..... This just in. A criminal by the street name of "skull" has just escaped fromAlcatraz. Please call the number on the screen if you catch sight of him. 

And now, to the weather reports with Stormie Knight. Stormie?" 

My mom finished.  

Ugh. I was SICK of this. She was always making me and dad watch her old News videos for some "quality family time" 

I changed the channel. 

Boxing match. Belch. 

Football. Never understood it. 

Cartoon network. Too cheesy. 

The Home Shopping Network. No.

Disney channel. now I feel like watching cheesy shows on a channel run by hormone crazed celebrities! 

No way. 

Nick. Yessss. I loved nickelodeon. I used to watch it ALL the time when I was little. 

After watching spongebob for about 10 minutes, I smelled the delious aroma  of grilled cheese. 

"here you go, hon!" Connie squealed. She was always excited about her job. 

She placed a wooden breakfast tray on my lap, with a plate of steaming grilled cheese and a large chocolate milkshake.

I enjoyed my food, while Laughing along with spongebob's nutty laugh. 

After about 3 shows of spongebob, I decided to stop, or see I might not have any more for homework!! 

I turned on my netbook, and my skype page popped up. (it was my home page).  I saw I had one new message. 

Nick_walker:hey, brooke, you still  coming over? 

Oh crap. I had totally forgot about the study meeting!! I glanced at the clock: 3:30. Ok, I still had some time to get there. 

Oh damn.  I didn't have a ride!! I REALLY needed a car. 

I decided to stall. 

B_johnson01: sorry, nick, but I just came down with a 104 fever, and can't come to your house. Maybe next time? :) 

Nick_walker: ..... Then y aren't u in bed and on the computer? 

CRAP DOODLES!! Damn, he IS smart!! 

BING! 

I looked to see he had sent another message. 

Nick_walker: wait a minute. Ou dint have a ride, do you? 

Sigh.

B_johnson01: bulls eye.  :( 

Nick_walker: Y didn't you ask? I'll pick u up. B there in about 10 mins, kk? 

WHAT??!?! NOOO!!! 

I hastened to type my thoughts on to the computer, but i saw that he had already signed off. 

Dammit! 

Crap. 

Oh man. 

Nooo. 

What am I going to wear?
