my bed, and not in a theater chair. natalie was gone. i took a shower and got dressed.
“and that’s me as miss November.” lunett said.
she and nat where on the sofa, looking at a album.
“dude did you know that lunett was a bunny?” nat asked.
“your mom is so cool.” she said, going back to the pictures. mom. yeah, that’s exactly what she is.
“where’s daddy?” i asked.
“in his office.” lunett said.
i went to his study and plopped down into a chair.
“make it happen.” he said, into the phone.
“hey bunny.” he said.
“i’m bored.” i said.
“where’s natalie?” he asked.
“with mom.” i said.
“would you like me to send the limo to pick up rosalynn?” he asked.
“yes please. your the best.”
i hopped up and skipped from his office.
CHAPTER THIRTEEN.
me and rosalynn had been in my room for 20 minuets when nat came in.
“hey rosalynn. ryan i thought that this was going to be our day.”
i put on my mastered confused look.
“well you where with lunett so edward called rosalynn for me. that’s ok isn’t it?”
“yeah, i mean sure.”
“it’s cool, i gotta get going, lunetts throwing a party and i have to get ready.” rosalynn said.
“okay, what’s the deal?” nat asked.
“what do you mean?” i asked.
“don’t play dumb with me dork. you called rosalynn over on our day. i don’t even know why you complain you have a good life here with your parents.” she said.
“they are not my parents.”
“you’ve changed.”
“you told me to. they might have you snowed but i live here i know them. natalie open you big pretty brown eyes."
“ well you should be nice to them.”
“ha! i’ve changed? you’ve been here, what two days and your on there side. what happened to you being on my side huh? i still can see the truth. your blind.” i said, throwing a hand in her way.
“girls, cam will be coming over soon.” lunett paused feeling the tension the air. “lunett when will i be able to go home?” natalie asked, not taking her eyes off of me.
i retuned her look with a death glare of my own. natlie looked down, she always said i had a death glare that could actually kill.
“the end of this week.” lunett said.
“can’t wait.” she said, leaving.
“good!” i yelled. “who needs you anyway!” i yelled.
“natalie, honey! natalie is a guest in our home. you should be nice to her.” lunett said. she turned on her heal hurrying after nat. wow in two days natalie was under lunetts spell. a piano started to play a sound so sweet and swift. i followed the noise, to see edward playing a white piano. i lay down on the padded chaise chair and listened to him play, and looked out over the back yard's lake. he was amazing. when he stopped i looked up at him. his smile was warm.
“your amazing.”
“i took lessons as a kid. i was going to put you in them but...”
“yeah.”
“you know, i may not show it, but i do care for you, ryannen,”
"i know.” i said.
but of course i didn’t.
“darling?” cam called.
“coming!” i called.
i kissed edwards cheek and went to my room.
CHAPTER FOURTEEN.
after cam made me up, i made a bee line strait for the bar. i drowned a little cup of something that burned and then went in search of lunett. she was talking to her friends. natalie was at lunetts side, talking to my friends.
“tara!” i yelled.
“ryan!” she yelled.
i hurried over and we kissed cheeks.
“i’m so glad you could make it.” i said.
“me to.” she said.
“girls.” i said.
“natalie.” i said, my smile fading.
“your not friends?” tara asked, slipping her arm through mine.
darrian and cammi backed away from nat flanking me and tara.
“looks that way.” i said.
“guys, come on. it’s a party.” rosalynn said.
“then have fun.” i said, backing away.
i sat at the bar.
“hard day?” jacob asked.
“yeah.” i said, looking up at him.
he was cleaning a glass.
“what can i get you?”
“whatever you think i should have.”
he poured clear liquid into a little cup, and i drank it. i breathed in slowly trying to stop the burning.
“whoa easy there.” cam said, sitting on the stool.
"hey cam." i said.
"what's wrong? the party is in full swing and you look your best." he said.
"nothing. i had a fight with natalie."
"want to talk about it?"
"no thanks."
just then cam's boyfriend took cam away to dance. in his place now was tara.
"where's the girls?"
"with natalie."
"why aren't you?"
"because my best friend is sad, and i'm here for her." she said, pushing my hair from my eyes.
"thanks tara."
"of course. you know you can talk to me." she said hugging me.
"don't trust them", i remembered rosalynn said.
we got a fruity drink and went into the formal living room.
"it's just natalie has totally changed ever since she came here."
"let me guess. natalie's blinded by the money?"
"yeah. that's why im glad i have you, cause you have money, and you would never leave me for someone else."
"course i wouldn't, what kinda of best friend would i be?" she asked, touching my hand. that's when darrian and cammi came over telling me how ah-mazing the party was. we chatted awhile and then i asked to be excused for a second. i went out back, to find rosalynn sitting on a bench alone. she smiled as i sat down.
"not picking sides huh?" i asked.
"not my thing."
"yeah, me to."
"i only pick sides, if i feel it's right."
"where we separated at birth?"
she laughed and put an arm around me.
"let's make a pact, to never choose sides, unless it feels right."
"deal." i said.
we hit our fruity drinks together and took a sip.
"might as well find the girls." she said.
she stood up and held out her hand. i took it and we went in search of the girls. they where standing by the bar.
"there you are." tara said.
"ok so this guy coming over is a heir to a bank load of money." tara said.
he nodded to us.
"would you care to dance?" he asked me.
"she'd love too." tara said taking my drink. rosalynn pushed me forward.
i smiled and took his hand.
"i'm Sam, you are?" he said.
"ryannen." i said, with a smile.
sure he was cute and charming but he was nothing but a hemmington guest.
"your the host's daughter am i right?" he asked.
"right you are." i said.
he laughed.
"did i mention how beautiful you look to night?" he asked.
i laughed.
"i'm afraid you haven't." i said.
"well my apologies miss, you look amazing." he said.
"thank you, your looking handsome yourself sam." i said.
he laughed and twirled me around.
CHAPTER FIFTEEN.
after the party i went to my room, taking down my hair. natalie was in my room, putting her things in a box. i crossed my arms and leaned against the door jam. she made her way to me.
"excuse me." she said, chin in air.
i lifted mine, and made room for her. she went down the hall and pushed open the guesst room door. i shut my door firmly with both hands. two can play this game, only we both know i can play better. the next morning lunett nat and tara where sitting at the table, papers everywhere.
"hey tara."
"hey girlfriend." she said, we hugged and i sat down.
"so what's all this?" i asked.
"it's for the summer festival." tara said.
"every summer we have a festival, it's like a carnival to make money for charities. since tara's grounded marryanne said, for her to help with the set up, it might teach her some discipline. i could say the same for you missy." lunett said.
"i'll help." i said.
"perfect." tara said, hugging me.
i looked over at natalie who was watching me. she lifted her chin, and looked away. we went out to set things up and buy things for the fund raiser. we dropped off tara and went home. nat took the left stair case and i took the right. we firmly shut our doors. i can't believe that natalie, swapped me in for lunett. was it something i did? i've always, stuck up for her, i've always stayed by her side. we where invincible. whatever, if she wants to be miss mini luenett, more power to her. the speaker on my wall beeped. "bunny are you in there?" edward asked.
i pushed the button.
"i'm in here."
"i was wondering if you would like to learn to play the piano."
"i'd love to."
he laughed.
"i thought you might. i'll be there in a second."
"k."
i walked to the piano room. edward taught me the basics, and soon i was able to play. he had to get to a meeting. i ran down the stairs, and into the meeting room. i paused not remembering what i was going to do.
"what do you think?"
"i uh. wow."
she was doing natalies make-up using dark colors. i learned long ago that when doing nat's make-up she did not look good in dark colors. she looked like a clown.
"want me to do yours?"
"uh, i have a late lunch date to get to bye." i said, turning on my heal and taking the stairs two at a time.
once at the top of the landing i burst into laughter. jacob passed me going down the stairs.
"i take it you've seen miss natalie?" he asked.
i nodded, and pushed open my door still laughing. i called my parents to see what they where up to. i told them that i missed them and loved them.
"cam's coming over in 5." lunett said.
" are we having a party?" i asked.
"worse. your grandparents are coming over, with your aunts and uncles. i have to warn you that they're a little formal." she said.
i nodded, as she left. cam dressed me, did my hair and make up and hugged me good bye. "ryan hurry they're here!" lunett said.
i hurried down the stairs.
"mother!" lunet said, hugging her.
lunetts mother looked like she got caught in a wind storm on the way here.
"sis!" she said.
the woman she hugged was the most beautiful woman i had ever seen. her dark hair had been curled and her light eyes shown brightly as she hugged lunett.
"there she is!" she said, as if she where a giddy teenager.
she came to me arms open.
"sweety, i've missed you!" she said.
"i've missed you too." i said, although it sounded like a question.
"look, haylee she looks exactly like you." the mother said.
i did? haylee was a bunny comparied to me. who knows she probably was.
"hello
