Josh! Josh! Josh! We love you!
I had to take a moment adjusting the radio station so it would give the ladies just the perfect-
Knock knock knock knock knock! Knockknockknock!
What was that sound? Maybe the radio was broken-
Ding-dong!
I groaned and rolled over in bed, trying to find the dream again. It was the one where I was sitting in the Ferrari and the girls in the bikinis were standing around and-
Ding-dong! Ding-ding-ding-ding-dong!
The clock blinked numbers that I didn't care to see unless the little PM dot was lit up.
A moment of silence and I breathed a sigh of relief.
DING-DONG!
"Who is it?!" I yelled from under the pillow.
No response. Maybe whoever had woken me up had lef-
Knock-knock-knock!
That was it. I threw off the blankets and marched downstairs. I was halfway to the door when I realized I was forgetting something. Pants. I wished I was back home. Why did I agree to come here? I wouldn't be woken up so early...
For some reason the need to put on pants just made me angrier. I fumed as I pulled on the first available pair and slipped on a t-shirt.
Two more knocks on the door.
I slammed my feet hard on the stairs so whoever the idiot was behind the door would know I was coming. I finally reached it and yanked it open.
Shoot.
It was that girl from the dance, who had been Timothy's date... ugh. The jerk. I couldn't believe it was all because of hi-
"I'm Elisabeth," the girl said.
Like heck I cared about anyone who was friends with Timothy. And what the heck was she doing here? This was supposed to be the no-name town where none of the people from the West coast were... and here was someone associated with the very person I hated.
I looked her up and down. I had to admit, she was attract- No way. There was no way I was going to have anything to do with this Elisabeth girl. I slipped into insensitive jerk mode, figuring it was my best bet.
"Well?" I demanded. "What's so important that you had to wake me up at 7:30?"
"I..."
"You just wanted to stand there with a bag on my porch for no reason?" I reached for the door, ready to shut it. I was done with this.
"I'm supposed to give you these," she said hurriedly, holding out a big bag filled with... oh no, not clothes. "They're from my... brother. Nolan Reid?"
I groaned, taking the bag from her and looking inside. I had been right. "Not more clothes! I'm not some freaking charity case," I mumbled, then suddenly remembered Elisabeth was there.
"Why are you still here?" I asked. "Don't tell me you have more clothes. I've got plenty already." These would just end up in the corner of the room I was staying in with all the other 'donations' for the Fords' troubled nephew. Great.
"No, I don't have anything else," Elisabeth said quickly. I grinned internally. I had done my job well. She was successfully intimidated. "Except..." Or not. "Except, do you know the way to the Reid's house? I'm new here and I need to get back."
