The Badass Nerd

Hello There Neighbor

Chapter 6: Hello there neighbor.
Julia's POV

"Julia! Get your ass in this house now!" my mom yelled. I got off my bike and ran inside. "Get up to your room and wear something nice. The Thompsons are coming at 7:00." You see I have dinner with Jake and his family today, but he doesn't know the person he's meeting is me. I looked at my watch. "6:30?" I yelled. I ran up to my room and took a shower. After the shower I walked into my closet.

"Lets see...which way to the dress closet." You see, my closet is so huge it can be mistaken as an indoor mall. I have my personal map to tell me where everything is since the place is so huge. Once I got to the dress closet I walked in and had trouble deciding, so I just asked my computer. "Computer, which dress did I have for dinners?" The machine brought out a red and slim strapless dress that hugged all my curves.

"You had this one, Julia." It said in a digital voice. "Thank you." I replied. I took the elevator to the top floor where the accessories were. Yes, I said elevator. Why did you think my house was so big? "Hmm. Oh!" I ran down to the heels closet and went to the red colored section. "Computer, can you grab me my red 3 inch heels?" I asked. "Here you are." It said holding out my heels. "Thank you." I said. "Julia! Get out of your closet! The guests are here!" my mom said through the intercom. "Coming!" I replied. I ran to the makeup room. "Computer. Please give me a natural look." Then the machine went to work right away.

In about 2 minutes, it was done. "Thank you!" I said as I ran to the elevator. Then I ran to the closet door, and down the stairs. "Mom?" I yelled. "In the dining room honey!" my dad replied. I walked in and did a short bow. "Hello. My name is Julia Roberts. Nice to meet you." Jakes head turned around so fast I was afraid he was gonna get a whiplash. His mouth was wide open. I gave him a smile. "Hello there neighbor."

Jake's POV~

"Julia! Get out of your closet! The guests are here!" Mrs.Roberts yelled into an intercom. Julia? Nah. It's not Julia from today. She's too badass and rebel to be living in a house bigger than the White House. "Mom?" a voice called. "In the dining room honey!" Mr. Roberts, said. "Hello. My name is Julia Roberts. Nice to meet you." a familiar voice said. No way. I turned around. There stood Julia, in a red dress and matching heels. Damn she looked hot.

She gave me a smile. "Hello there neighbor." "My! What a beautiful daughter you have." my mom said. "Thank you, Mrs.Thompson." she said souring in the seat next to me. "Please. Call me Clara. This is my husband, Fredrick." mom said. "Nice to meet you." Julia replied.

We finished dinner. Everyone had lots of laughs and we all had a good time. "Julia? Can you take Jake to your room, while us parents clean up?" Julia's mom, or Charlotte, said. "Ok." Julia replied. She got off the couch and walked to me. "Follow me." she said before taking off.

Julia's POV~

I stopped at my room. "Well, here it is." I said in front of my doors. "You, have double doors?" Jake asked. "Yup." "Why?" "You'll see." I opened my doors. My room is huge compared to normal rooms. Some people mistake it as a living room. "Woah..." Jake said walking around. I sat on my bed. "Wanna watch a movie?" I asked. "Huh? Oh sure. Can I choose?" he said. "Why you think I'll choose a chick flick?" I asked. "Well, yeah. You are a girl." "Omg! Just don't choose a scary movie. I don't like those. Just choose a movie with Taylor Laughtner in it. He's just...wow!" I said in my most girly tone. Jake bursted out laughing.

"That. Was scarily identical." he said. "Anyway, what do you want to watch?" I asked sipping from my cup. "Um...Glee?" he said. I spat out my drink. "Glee?" I said surprised as I wiped my mouth. "Yeah I like it." "Ok."

An hour passed by. "Jake! it's time to go!" Clara yelled from downstairs. "But I want to finish this..." Jake said having a sad face. I smiled and walked to the intercom. "Mom? Can Jake stay over tonight? It is a Friday after all. Plus his house is five minutes away." I whispered. "Let me asked his parents." my mom said. Then there was a pause. "They said ok." she whispered. "Thanks mom." I decided to trick Jake. "Jake will be right down." I said in my normal voice, but not pressing the intercom button.

He looked at me with a sad face. Aw. That's adorable. Wait what? I think I had too much champagne. I will never fall for Jake, or any guy at that. Not after what happened.

[flashback to when she returns from boarding school. Age: 15]

I'm finally home. Before I go home, let's go visit Josh. I walked to his house and knocked on the door. "Josh? You home?" No reply. That's weird. His car is here so that must mean he's home. He never leaves his car at home when he goes somewhere. I took out the spare key he gave me. Well, more like I stole it.

I opened the door, and heard moaning. The hell? I walked up to Josh's room. His door was slightly ajar so I looked in it. My heart and love for him and that one person I thought that was there for me shattered into a million pieces when I saw this scene. There was my boyfriend, on top of my best friend since middle school, Kayla.

I dropped my bag. The door swung open when my bag hit it. Their heads looked at the door quickly. "Julia!" Kayla said. I looked at Josh with the glare I only use for when I'm about to kill someone. I walked up to him, grabbed his shirt, and pulled him up to my face. "You son of a bitch." I spat before punching him to the ground. "Josh!" Karla ran to him. "And you." I said to her. "You lied to me. You said you never liked him." I walked up to her and she kept inching back.

"And here you are, fucking him." She inched back into a wall. "I never thought you were such a slut." "Julia please. Don't hurt me." she cried. "After what you just did? I don't think so." I said before punching her in the face. No could stop me now. I couldn't even control my body anymore. My hands were doing their own thing.

Josh pulled my off her, and I flipped him over my shoulder. I gave him a few more punches to the face before standing up and saying, "I hope you rot in hell and never make contact with me again." With that I walked out and ran home.

[flashback over]

Jake got up and walked to the door with a sad face. "I'm just kidding. Your parents already left. I asked your mom if you could stay over." he turned around and looked at me with a huge smile. "Really?" he asked. "Yeah." I said sitting back on my hands with my eyes closed. All of a sudden I was engulfed in a hug.

"Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." he said. "But what am I going to wear to sleep?" I snapped my fingers. "I got that covered." I walked to my closet doors. "Come on!" Jake walked up to me and I opened my closet doors. I walked in a few steps and turned around. "Welcome to my closet." I said to Jake. "WHY THE HELL IS IT SO HUGE?" he yelled. I shrugged. "Come on let's go to the men's department." I said walking to the elevator. I pressed the up button. The elevator door opened and we walked in. "Why do you have men's clothing?" Jake asked. "My mom said to have some men's clothing in case we have make guests coming over." I replied.

The doors opened. "We're here!" I said. He looked at the place then at me. "THAT IS NOT SOME CLOTHING! THAT A WHOLE STORE!" he yelled. "Go choose some pjs." I said. "This place is fucking huge. It will take me 15 minutes to get some pjs." he said. "Fine." I said. "Computer?" A digital screen came up to me. "Yes?" it said. "Do you have some pjs that can fit this man?" I said shoving jake in front of me. A light came out and scanned Jake. Then a mechanic hand came out holding red sweatpants and a white sleeveless top. "Thank you." I said. Then we walked out to my room.
