The Fun In Being Bad

Chapter 4 : The Chronicles Of The Nerd

In the end we'll all become stories.

-Margaret Atwood

.

My house is just 10 minutes away from Archers house, and it never felt like home in here. Most of the time it's empty as both of my parents work abroad.
I won't say that I was happy with this arrangement but I'm happy to not deal with my parents all day.

You could say I had mommy and daddy issues.

I also have an older brother, Levi, a 21 year old idiot. Our family owns a famous clothing line and my brilliant brother helps them in business.

It has always been like this, we were rarely under the same roof. I am used to the emptiness.

I take a long shower in my tub and change into pyjamas.
I was thinking of watching the television before going to sleep because I am sure today's events would keep me up all night.

Jake was not my problem whereas Jake's best friend was a pain in the ass.

Vincere Montague, also known as Vin, the resident nerd of our school.
With his signature black glasses and primitive clothes he may look like the stuttering anti-social nerd. But you would be very wrong to think that. Very, very wrong.

He is the epitome of evil beneath that nerd cover. Or so I like to think.

And I hated him at the first sight.

The loud ringing of my phone brings me out of my thoughts. I knew Cass would call.

I just throw my phone across the bed and drift off to a long peaceful sleep.

The phone eventually stops ringing. They know I don't like talking on the phone.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

I hate that sound. Ughhhhhhhh

Just as I was contemplating about showing school the finger and falling back asleep, my bedroom door was thrown open and my two best friends walk in looking like the sunshine itself dressed them up.

'Wakey wakey, its a new morning!' A high pitched voice said.

Why am I even friends with them! Was I drunk when I proclaimed them my best friends?

'Wake up sleeping beauty, it's a wonderful morning. The world is calling you'

Yep, definitely drunk or high on drugs maybe.

'Let me sleep' I make my voice as weak as possible to convey that I was really tired.

'No no missy, you wake up right now. You remember Mrs S asked you to visit her before 8am and its 7:30 now. Wake up or else you know how she gets' Cass warns.

On hearing Mrs S's name I get up quickly. I have stood her up two times already, she would chew my head off if I don't attend today.

'Holy tarterus! You guys should have woke me up!'

Archer rolls his eyes 'We will pretend we didn't hear that and go out of your room to let you get ready'

Huh. What are they rolling their eyes at? I make a face at them behind their back.

The two idiots were already seated in my Mercedes Benz Maybach Exelero which was gifted by my brother on my 14th birthday. It's a bit old.

I get into the car and signal my driver to drive. I mean yes I can drive, but I thought, why not get some sleep?

Yesterday's arguments were all forgotten, there was no awkward tension between us. It has always been like this.

I smile looking at the two idiots singing loudly, as if that would stop me from sleeping!

'You won't believe what just happened!' A voice screeched. Probably one of Cass's cheerleading friends.

"The vampires finally decided to reveal themselves to the world?", I suggest hopefully.

'You know it won't happen' Tess giggles.

WHAT! she thinks this is funny?!

'Hey! So don't believe vampires exist?Let me tell you...muf....mughf...muhhf..' Archer shuts me up by putting his hand over my mouth before I could thoroughly provide her with the proof for the existence of vampires!

He brings me near the office and finally frees me. 'I hate you. I should have informed her about the vampires. She needs to know!' I glare at him.

'We know, we know how important it is to tell her about vampires but what's more important than that is meeting Mrs S because its already 8'

I check my watch. Oh no! I am late.

'Thanks guys you are the best. Bye see you guys at calculus' I hug them both and stir towards room 312, wherever that is.

What!? I don't remember okay! I am just a human.

As I near the room I hear some familiar noises. One was of Mrs S but the other voice however seemed a little familiar.

'You can't ask me to do that Mam...I respect you and all but that!....no I can't'

'Please Vin you are my last hope....you can do that.... it will even help you with your grades..'

Dear readers,

That's the grand entrance of Vincere Montague. What do you think his personality will be?

Isis confirmed that he's not at all antisocial or stuttering nerd, what could he possibly be then?

Please keep in mind that I don't like writing normal stories. There will be nothing normal in this story. I will try my best to keep all of you on your toes ; )

Tequila, salt and lemon,
