Nerd vs. Geek

Chapter 2

Why I was up so early? Why, because one famous man said,"Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man wealthy, healthy, and wise."

I just woke Johny up for fun. Not because mum had told me to. Or maybe it's the other way around. I don't care at this point really.

The front door slammed shut. I smiled.

I ran into Johny's bedroom and completed all of his chores.

Why does my brother hate me so much. Oh right, because I always ruin everything apparently.

I remember when we used to be best friends. Always there for each other, but now that he is all cool and stuff, I just guess he didn't need me anymore.

Oh well.

I finished all of his chores by 10.

I checked my watch. It was too late to do what I wanted to do.

Ugh. I collapsed onto my knees in the middle of the hallway, and looked up at the ceiling. Raising my hands a up to the sky, I yelled,"Why!" After that moment, silence quickly followed. I stood up, brushed my pant legs off, and walked into my room like what I just did never happened.

I walked into my neat and tidy room, picked up my guitar, plugged it into the amplifier, and played an unfamiliar tune.

I kept playing it over and over again not ever wanting to stop.

Hadley Writer's POV

I woke up to have water raining down on my face.

"Jimmy! This is freezing cold! I will get you for this!" I yelled knowing he was somewhere near.

I opened my eyes and saw him running into his room and locking the door.

I smiled and walked up to his door.

"You will pay for doing that!" I yelled.

I tasted some of the water. It was saltwater. Ewwwww.

I ran into my bedroom, searched for my newly bought shampoo, conditioner, and body soap.

I know Jimmy has put dye in my old toothpaste and old washing materials. So I came with backup.

I took a long shower making sure that I didn't have any saltwater left on my body.

Once I was done I dressed into black pants, dark blue shirt, and a black sweater that was super cozy and light.

I exited the bathroom and Jimmy took a photo of me.

I smiled knowing that he didn't prank me this time.

He looked up from his camera and frowned.

"Not what you were expecting was it?" I asked playfully.

He frowned even more, if that was even possible, and walked downstairs.

I did my happy dance in my head.

Walking downstairs I became even more careful, because I know that Jimmy placed traps around the house. I know that he set it all up last night.

How do I know this? I know this, because I followed him as quiet as a ninja, during the night. With the exception of stepping on every creaking step,  groaning floors, and not-so-silent doors.

I finally made my way downstairs. Avoiding the one step where he put superglue on.

I laughed quietly since Jimmy didn't know that I watched him set every single prank for me.

"Hey Hadley? I am gonna hang out with some friends I made yesterday. I'll see ya soon alright? Bye."Jimmy yelled from downstairs.

"Bye Jimmy!" I yelled back at him.

Since I had nothing else to do, I decided that I would take  a walk.

I closed the door behind me and locked the door.

I started to walk away from the mansion. Putting my earplugs in and started playing my music on my iPod.

I ran my hand through my short brown hair.

'Every rose has its thorn' by Poison started playing. I quietly started to sing along with it.

I wonder what school will be like when it starts. Will I have all of the fun classes? Or will I have the boring classes? Or will it be a mix of both? Will I make any friends? Will I be popular? Or will I be the geek that I am? Will I be quiet and shy? Or will I be loud and outgoing? Will everyone I meet be nice to me? Or will they be mean? Will the teachers be nice?

I shook my head clearing my head from these thoughts.

I shouldn't be worrying about school right now. I should be praying that Jimmy doesn't have another prank in store that I never knew about.

The playlist of Poison faltered, and I sighed. My iPod kept stumbling after at least 3 songs. I carefully wrapped my earplugs around the fragile object, and placed it in my coat's pocket.

The sky was getting darker by the second.

I turned around and started to walk back It started to rain, very lightly though.

Ugh. Another shower. Yippee. Note the sarcasm.

I started to run towards my house which was at least 3 more blocks away.

The rain started to pour harder, and I started to run faster.

I suddenly stopped when I heard a very loud guitar coming from the house I just passed.

I was almost completely soaking wet so it wouldn't bother me if I stayed to listen to whoever was playing the guitar.

I listened to it for a moment. It sounded so heavenly. Swaying side to side, i slowly walked back to my house in a daze.

Whoever my neighbor is, plays wonderfully.

I made my way into my room and fell onto my bed not caring if I got my bed wet.

I felt my eyes get heavier until my eyes fully closed and I fell into a peaceful sleep
