Secretly Talented

Chapter 14

Chapter 14 

I couldn't sleep that night. I stayed up and checked the window every hour. After I hung up on the man I could hear his laughter outside. About twenty minutes later he left but I never stopped checking to see if he came back. At about 7 o'clock in the morning I made my way to Isaac's room to tell him what happened. I got to his room and knocked. I heard some whispering on the other side of the door then I the bathroom door shut quietly as if trying to make sure I didn't hear it. It didn't work. Isaac opened the door with a smile on his face but it faltered when he saw mine. "What happened to you?" he asked me pulling me inside and grabbing my face. I must have looked horrible. I had been crying all morning because I was so scared and I didn't take my makeup off so it was probably running down my face in streaks. I told Isaac everything from the man following home to me staying up all night I didn't leave anything out. When I was finished I had tears in my eyes again and Isaac had a shocked look in his face. He pulled me into a hug and said "I'm so sorry Emma. Do you have any idea who it could be? Do you have any enemy's that would want to hurt you?" I shook my head and said "No I don't think I do, everyone that I have ever met has liked me."  

At that point I remembered about the whispering and the bathroom door I heard earlier so to get my mind off of the subject at hand I confronted him about it. "Isaac who were you talking to earlier when I knocked?" I asked him. His face turned red and said "What are you talking about? Were the only two people in these room, there's nobody in the bathroom." he hit his forehead with his hand and I laughed and went to the bathroom door. I slowly opened it and looked inside and saw a girl sitting on the floor. She was pretty, she had red hair that was sticking up all over the place. Her eyes were blue which were covered with glasses, she was petite and seemed to only be about 5'4". She looked up at me and immediately went red. I looked back to see an equally red Isaac looking at the floor and I immediately burst out laughing. They both looked at me like I was crazy but, what could I do. When I finally settled down I looked at Isaac and raised an eyebrow and was about to say something when he interrupted me and said quickly "It's not what you think!" with his hands out in front of him. He then added "She just stayed over nothing happened" I started laughing again. As I was laughing I walked over to the girl and held my hand out to help her up then brought her in Isaac's bedroom with us. I was just smiling by now when I said "Hi I'm Emma." She shook my hand and shyly said "I'm Katy." Isaac put his arm around her and said "Katy's my girlfriend."  

I took a step back and let that sink in. Isaac has a girlfriend, and she spent the night last night. I narrowed my eyes at then and said "No making babies while I'm in the house." They both tried to say something but all I heard was gibberish. I waved a hand at them then walked out of the room and back to mine. When I walked in my phone was buzzing so I cautiously made my way to it as if it would bite me. I picked the phone up and saw it was a text message from Kolby. 

Kolby: So I'm guessing that everything that happened on Friday meant nothing to you. 

I was taken aback by his abruptness but quickly got over it and replyed back. 

Emma:What are you talking about? 

Kolby:Well I thought we had something going on after out date on Friday but I guess I was wrong. 

Emma:You thought that was a date! I wanted to see where I was living. It wasn't a date! 

Kolby: Well thanks for leading me on anyway. I was happy until I went into the studio today and heard that you and Alex were a couple. 

Emma:I'm sorry that I may have lead you on but I only like you as a friend. I really like Alex so you can get over yourself.  

I slammed my phone shut and ignored the rest of his texts. I took a quick shower and then got dressed. When I went back into my room I had a missed call from an unknown number and a text from Alex. I decided to forget about the call and see what Alex said. 

Alex:Hey babe Ronnie needs to talk to you today. Call him and tell him what time you can come in, his number is 555-0856. Hopefully I'll see you there. 

Emma:Thanks for letting me kn... 

I didn't get a chance to finish my message because an unknown number popped on the screen. Without thinking I answered it and said "Hello?". All I heard on the other end was heavy breathing and I knew it was the guy from yesterday. I quickly hung up and blocked the number. After I calmed myself down I called Ronnie and told him I would be there in about half an hour. I went downstairs and sat down and ate. I finished my breakfast and pulled my shoes on. I walked out of the house and made my way to the music studio. As I was walking I had the same feeling of someone watching me. I turned around and saw that the same hooded figure was following me again. I tried to lose him by taking a different route but he always seemed to find me. When I made it to the studio I went inside and looked out the door to see that he was just sitting outside. I knew he was trying to get into my head and scare me but he was doing a very good job. I was still watching him when I felt arms snake around my waist and pull me into their hard chest. I smiled and leaned into Alex as he put his chin on my shoulder and asked "What are you looking at?" I turned around to face him. I didn't think I should bother him with this so I didn't say anything instead I said "O nothing." and put my arms around his shoulders and gave him a hug. He chuckled and said "Ronnie's waiting on you in studio B." I nodded then untangled myself from him and headed to where Alex said Ronnie was.
