The Nerd Is Back

New Life

"Oh my god! What the...." I shot up in bed and droplets of water fell onto my clothes.

I glared at Bennett who was laughing so hard he couldn't breath. I sighed. Whenever I won't wake up they would pour a jug of water on me. I got out of bed and took a large book from the side table and smacked Bennett across the head. He winced in pain and turned to glare at me. I shrugged and walked into my closet which I found out was a walk in closet.

"Come down! Lunch is ready." Bennett said, exiting my room.

I was still soaking wet so I grabbed a loose T-shirt and sweatpants. I went into the bathroom and changed. I dried my hair and went downstairs. Bennett was sitting at the table searching for something. Martha, the chef was serving lunch. I sat down and smiled at her. She smiled back and hugged me from the side. I was so hungry that even water smelt delicious. I dug in and was nearly finished when Bennett asked me something.

"Have you seen my phone?" he asked.

"No. Let me call your number." I said, taking my phone out if my pocket.

I searched for his number in my contacts and called it. I heard faint ringing somewhere and Bennett got up. He went into living room and I followed. He searched sofas and took the phone out of the middle of the sofa. I rolled my eyes and went back to the dining room. Bennett sat down and begin searching his contacts. He called a number and waited for the person to pick up.

"Hello, Kin. Yeah she's here. Okay. Eight sharp, got it." he said.

I got up from the table and went to the living room. I sat down and switched on the TV. Most of the channels were gossip shows so I skipped them. That was until I saw Bennett's name. I quickly switched back to that channel and waited for the reporter to continue.

"So Haily, what do you think of this?" she asked the other girl who was reporting with her.

"Well, I think Bennett is talented so his sister must be as good. I think she is really pretty. Reporters caught a glimpse of her as they landed today." she said and I blushed. No one ever called me pretty except my friends and family.

A picture of me popped onto the screen and I sighed. I looked nice better than my other pictures at least.

"Well, there you have it. Bennett Carson, the well-known popstar, told us as he landed with his sister, Angela Carson, this morning in LA that she was here for a record deal. We never really heard her sing but we are looking forward to it. This is Beatrice Montgomery signing off."

They both said to follow them on Twitter and all that but switched off the TV. I went up to my room still pondering over what Beatrice said. I took out my laptop and went downstairs again.

My legs hurt so much from climbing the long staircase. I went to the living room and sat down on the sofa. Bennett was still talking in the other room. I went to Google and typed "latest celebrity gossip". The news of the record deal was all over the net.

Holy skittles.

What is happening? What will the label think when they see this? They will think I'm just an overconfident snobby girl.

As I was thinking about this and freaking out, Bennett came out of the dining room and sat down beside me on the sofa.

"Angi, Kin was- What happened to you?" he asked looking me concerned.

"See this. Then ask what happened." I said as I shoved him the laptop and ran to the kitchen get a glass of water. I drank it and felt a bit calmer. Suddenly I heard loud laughter from the other room. I went back to the living room and saw Bennett sprawled on the couch, laughing his ass off.

"What's so funny?" I asked, hotly.

Here I was on the verge of freaking out and he was laughing. Jerk.

"Y-you are s-uch an idiot." he said, having trouble talking because he was laughing so much.

"What?! Can't you see this? What will the label think?" I said as I sat on the couch.

"Angi, you are too adorable." he cooed, pinching my cheek.

I slapped his hand away and glared at him.

"There have been worst rumors about these record deals. Heck, one girl even said that she had s-" he said before I slapped him across the head.

"I'm still innocent."

"Right. Anyway, I phoned my manager and he said to be there at eight thirty sharp." he said, turning on the TV.

I watched a bit of Dark Knight with him but got bored and turned on Harry Potter. Still the best series in my opinion.

I fell asleep and woke up with Bennett putting on my bed. He went out and switched off the lights. I still kept thinking about tomorrow and fell asleep till around ten.

The only thought running through my mind when I fell asleep?

I fell asleep during the Harry Potter movie. How disappointing.
