The Nerd's Secret Life [MAJOR EDITING!]

Day 8 part 1.

Hailey's Pov.

 So it's Monday afternoon and I'm sitting in my 6th period Art class waiting for the day to end. For some reason a lot of the teachers were absent, including Mr. Little. Cory was late once more, and none of his 'buddies,' who he hangs out with were here either.

 It's quite odd for a lot of people to not be here at the same time, at first I thought there might have been some sort of a field trip that I missed, but nope, there isn't.

 I just can't wrap my head around it, I'm kind of hoping it's just the flu going around so I don't have to think to much about it, I'm lost in my thought of this Benny character.

 Since I don't have work until' Wednesday I was going to go straight home and look through the list of all those Benny's. This may be harder than I first initially thought, just because I know his first name dooesn't make this any easier on me.

 It would be nice to know his last name, but on the plus side Benny doesn't know that I know his first name, and I'm planning on keeping it that way.

 The bell rings throughout the classroom bouncing off the walls, I gather my books and put away the paint I was using and walk out of the Art room.

 Going to my locker down the hall I open it and grab my bag and put my books that I don't need for homework tonight inside the locker, slamming it shut I walk down the corridor and step outside and feel the sunshine on my face.

 Squinting my eyes and looking around the parking lot for my car, I spot it and walk over to it, opening the door I get inside and shut the door.

 Letting out a sigh I lay my head on the back of my sit while throwing my bag in the seat next to me, looking out the passengers side window I see Cory on the field tossing the football.

 That's weird, I thought football ended, weird.

 Whatever.

 I don't have time to think about why some teenage boys are tossing a football when the seasons ended, they probably do it for fun now I guess.

 Putting my key into the ignition I turn it starting up my car and start to head home.

 Once I'm home I slam my car door shut and start walking up the path way to my house.

 "Oh Hailey!" Mrs. Russo shouts at me from across the street.

 I turn around slowly and smile politely at her, "Yes?" I ask her.

 "Do you mind watching Poppy and Asia right now for a few hours for me dear? My husband and I have this dinner we have to go to, it's last minute I know, bu--"

 "No worries, I love those 2. I'll be over in a sec, I need to tell my parents first." I wave at her and she smiles brightly nodding her head, I turn around and make my way inside.

 You may be thinking, 'Aren't these kids supposed the be in school at this time?' well yes, but their home schooled so.

 I go into the kitchen and my parents are sitting there discussing something but as soon as I enter they act as if they weren't saying anything at all.

 "Hey honey, how was school." My mother ask's me placing a kiss on my left cheek.

 "Oh, you know, school." I say with a shrug and my father takes a sip of his coffee, "Hey look, so Mrs. Russo asked if I can watch her kids for a few hours, so I'm gonna head over now."

 "Wait, isn't it a little short notice?" My father ask's me placing his cup onto the wooden table.

 "Well yeah, but she said there was this last minute dinner party--"
