I looked at the address in my hand after i packed my car..i hoped i was in the right place..i looked at the house again,of course it wasnt like keane's,quite like Lia's but it was quite flattery with lots of flowers...i heard voices as i walked up to the porch..behind the house,i didnt knock,i walked there instead and saw a very large pool...i stared....."..like what you see?",startled i jumped and turned,relaxing a trifle when i saw who it was..."jerk..u scared me" "what re you doing here?" "you invited me remember...project" "oh...right,u done the research work yet?" "no...did u reall think i ll do that?" "why not" "do we get on with it...i have to get home early" "sure we would..let me send off the rest of my guests..wait here"he walked away,i really needed sth to drink..but he wouldnt even ask..mins later Drew was walking towards me....somebody came out of the water,towards me,towelling his hair so i didnt see the face at first,i gaped at his packs......8?,was that possible..he removed the towel and placed it around his neck...i met his gaze.....Keane..,would i stop meeting him"hey keane"...what connection..oh,Issabel,they d all ditched school today,this was where they were..."what u doing here?"i asked as he stared at me with snobby eyes"hanging out..you?" "Drew's my project partner" "oh...",Drew reached us and looked him up,then me...was that animosity btw them..oh crap..Issabel,these two guys..lucky bitch"ready?",i nodded"sure",i smiled at Keane and followed Drew into the house,i was gaping around when he looked back at me"u coming or what?",i followed him up to his room..and he sat behind his laptop..."wheres Brian.."i asked"should he be here?"he asked without looking up"he stays here right?",he looked at me"are we talking about Brian..or the project?" "do you have to be all annoying",i went behind him to look at d screen"right lets begin",he opened some pages"i saved some pages from what i surfed out..u have a look and tell me what you think"he left and i busied reading"get me a drink,would you"i called out,he didnt reply,he brought me a beer later on and left again"j.e.rk"i muttered as i read on....he came back finally and sat with me,guess he d sent them all off cos the house was now quiet"wat do u think"he asked"yea its ok,but we cant use all,most of these information are outdated so i ll send them to my email and work on them",he stared at me as he ate chips"really"he said ntn else"are u gonna share that?"i asked ,he passed the bowl to me"who is gonna do the presentation?"i asked as i munched d surprisingly delicious chips"u made this?" "no,my sister did" "u hv a sister?"
