The New Girl

Chapter 12

Chapter 12

I don't know what time it is but when Nathan, or Nate as we call him, entered the room, I knew that I had spent hours in here. I was currently sitting on a bean bag, humming to tune, so I stopped to listen to him.

"Hey sis, what are you doing here? Aaron and I have been looking for you." He took out his phone, probably to tell Aaron that I am here. My brothers call me different names but 'baby girl' is the only one which all three of them call me. When I ask them why this name, they say that because I am the youngest one of all and their only sister. Anyways I actually like this name, it's cute.

"Sorry I was uh just here only."

Maybe he saw the look on my face and asked with a frown, "Is everything ok?" I shrugged and placed the guitar next to me. I stood up and went to sit on the couch while drinking water; I took from the mini refrigerator before. Nate followed me and sat on the opposite couch from mine.

"Hey baby girl" Aaron said, entering the room. I smiled and greeted back. Aaron settled down next to me on the couch and gave me a side hug, I returned the hug and while pulling away noticed that he is having an eye conversation with Nate. He turned towards me and asked, "Are you ok Thi?"

I signed and told them about how I have decided to tell my friends about me and that they are coming home tomorrow so I can tell them. They said that it is a good idea and gave me few ideas how to tell them and told me not to take tension; which is very difficult not to take, in my opinion.

"Okay. That's enough serious talk for one day, let's go and watch a movie. It will take your mind off it." Nate said, trying to lighten up the mood. And it actually did. We went to the movie room and decided to watch Fast and Furious 6. After watching the movie, we went to eat dinner and then to our rooms.

I turned on the speaker and shuffled my playlist. I lay on my bed re-reading the book 'Slammed' by my favourite author Colleen Hoover. After a while I closed the book and laid there just listening to my favourite songs and fell asleep.

Next Morning

I woke up late, comparatively, and rushed to the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and took a bath. I was ready for the day in an hour, don't judge. I took my wallet, iPhone and went down in the kitchen and saw that my brothers were already up and dressed.

"Good morning guys" I gave them each a kiss on the cheek and took my breakfast which was pancakes, Yum!

"Morning baby girl" They said in unison, weird I know but its usual thing for me.

"So, what are you guys doing today?" I asked, taking a bite of the delicious heaven on plate.

"Work"

"Meeting with some friends"

"Hanging out with friends"

You can guess who said what. I nodded and continued eating. Aaron and Nate must have told Erik about what I said yesterday because he also told me that it's a good idea. Ding, I looked at my phone and saw that there was a message from Diana.

'Hey. Just wanted to tell you that we are ready and Stella is at my place too. Come quick.'

"Ok guys I gotta go now. See yaa. Bye"

I rushed out of the house and went to the garage.

Uh oh

One thing I didn't think about is which car am I supposed to take? I could take my car but I don't think it will be a good idea to take my beetle at least not until they know.

"Good morning, Miss Walter. Do you need any help?" A voice said from behind me.

I nearly jumped with surprise and turned to look. I saw that one of the drivers, in his early thirties, was standing there with a concerned look. All four of us, meaning me and my brothers, have a personal driver to drive us where we want. Our parents insist we use them when we need to go anywhere but we don't very much, except Erik. He takes the driver when he is going for work because he usually gets tired enough to not be able to drive while returning back home. Aaron and Nate don't need these drivers because they like to drive on their own. Same goes for me; I love to drive and don't like to take the driver and just sit at the back to watch the scene go by.

"Good morning. Umm yeah I need your help but please tell me your name first?" I said, feeling bad for not remembering his name.

"It's Charlie, Miss." He replied politely.

I nodded and said, "Ok Charlie, can you tell me which is our most basic car?"

He smiled and nodded. He went to the key stand and got a car key.

"These are the keys for a sedan which I think is the car you'll need." He said. I nodded, he understood quite well and he continued, "Do you need me to drive?"

"No no, I will drive myself. Thanks for your help." I replied. He nodded and went out of the garage. I walked to the car and got inside it. I started the car and thought, 'I hope everything goes well.'
