All In Good Time Chapter 1

      Popcorn in my lap and Logan Lerman's beautiful face on the tv screene. This, was me and Sydney's regualr saturday night routine, yeah we're lame I know. Laying down on our stomachs, eyes wide, lights out, and a scary monster is about to pop out of the screene when Eli decides to pop his head in Sydney's room and scare the s**t out of me. "What are you guys doing?" he asks as I scream "Holy S**t!" making popcorn fly everywhere. Sydney says in a bored tone "watching a movie" as he turns the light on to make sure no permanant damage was done.

     So Sydney's brother, Eli, is sort of the most beautiful guy I have ever met. I'm pretty sure i'm like a little sister to him though. He's still standing there, in Syd's doorway, which is weird usually he checks in and leaves. "So..." he says lamely "Me a sweater" i say, wondering if he's smart enough to get that.

       "Huh"

      "Sew me a sweater...nevermind. Did you need something big brother?" I started calling him that when I was about seven and realized I was never going to have an older sibling.

 

He grimaced "Well, I'm going to Jimmy's party and I sort of need a favor" he said quickly.

"What?"

"INeedYouToPretendToBeMyGirlfriendTonightSoThatICanGetMeganToLeavemeAlone" he said in a rush

"I'm sorry can you repeat that?" half teasing, half really not knowing what the hell he was talking about.

"I broke up with megan today and I can't go to this party alone, so I need you to help me out" he ended with a

lopsided grin that made my stomach do flip flops.

       Before I knew what was happening Syd had pushed him out of her room telling him I'd be down in fiffteen,

then she turned around and looked at me with a devilish grin. That could only mean one thing, makeover. I

figured there was no point in argueing so I sat down on her bed while she deliberated on an outfit.

         When she finally emerged from her closet she threw a black sequenced top, wavy short blue skirt, and a pair

of black hightops. I threw the clothes on and looked at myself in the mirror, not bad. Syd had the curling iron

on already and looked like she had a license to use one. I sat in a flding chair in her room while she curled all

of my hair, we got throu half of ADTR CD by the time she was comepletely finished.

           Sydney had gotten dressed and ready in the process since she was planning to come, wich was fine with me.

Eli texted Syd and said he was ready downsatirs and Syd told him we were on our way down. As I walked

down the stairs I could see the back of Eli's head, and when he turned around he did something he's never

done, he stared, or at least that's what it felt like. Our eyes just connected for a few seconds untilSyd shouted

that she got a ride with Nick.

 

This might be akward...
