Chapter 11
(I don't own the song above, or any of the others I use)
Sitting in the living room I watch a movie with Davenport, Tasha, and Leo
Then Bree comes rushing upstairs with Chase and Adam laughing behind her, messing with her
"Mr. Davenport, I cannot stand them anymore. Can they please go leave in your warehouse?" Bree asked
"Bree, the warehouse is where I keep my explosive chemicals," Davenport pointed out
"Like I said, can they please go live in your warehouse?" She asked again
"Well, Donald, she is getting older. She needs privacy. Why don't you give her one of your extra rooms?" Tasha asked "You have like fourteen."
"Whoa. Whoa, whoa, woah. I do not have any extra rooms," Davenport argued, standing up
"You have a pool table room, bumper car room, arcade room, surf simulator room, not to mention a room full of mirrors!" She fired back
"Or as I like to call it a room full of me," he grinned I rolled my eyes
"Okay, weird. Bree can share my room, I have plenty of space, it will be like a sleepover every night," I proposed
"Great, its settled. Well moved Bree's capsule into her room," Tasha smiled
"Yes! So long, bozos!" Bree cheered
"Fine. Without you, we will make the lab totally awesome for ourselves," Chase said
"Mmhm that's right. No more hair scrunches or rainbow-colored toe socks or pretty, pinky, shiny junk!" Adam said, "Ooh, but I'm a little chapped. Could I borrow some of your bubble berry pucker bomb?"
He ripped the necklace holding her lip balm and rubbed it all over his lips, "Man, it's always so hard not to eat," he was gonna eat it until Bree ripped it back out of his hands, heading downstairs to pack her things
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bree now had her capsule next to my couch not to far from my bed, setting up somethings to make her fell more happier with how it looked
"You're room is seriously awesome, how'd you get all this?" She asked in amazement
"Well, I have my ways. Also Tasha might have told him to give up his master bedroom with numerous rooms for me?" I said innocently
"I could learn a thing or two from you," she smiled
"Of course, young one. I can teach thee all my wisdom," I joked, we laughed, "wanna know the best part?"
"What?"
"This is the only room in the entire house that Eddie isn't in," I bragged
"Awesome! I get enough of him and my brothers in the lab," she laughed
"Go ahead and take a look around, my room is now also your room," I spoke, sitting on my bed opening my Apple laptop
Bree came over and shut my laptop in front of me
"I want you to show me around, with this many rooms I could get lost, please?" She begged, I rolled my eyes and rolled off my bed
First I showed her upstairs, where my hang out/escape room was, I showed my closet and gave her fashion advice, next was my bathroom, then art room, and finally my music room
"Welcome to my last stop of the Scarlett tour, my music room!" I exclaimed
"Woah, you can play all these," she wondered, lightly touching a guitar
"Yep, oh and this isn't even the best part, come on!" I grabbed her hand and lead her to my recording booth
"Woah! You use all this?"
"Yep, go ahead and look through the song collection," I said, sitting down in one of the white chairs
"Song collection?" She questioned, I opened a drawer next to me and pulled out a box filled to the brim with CD's
"You sung all of these?" She asked, ones were labeled 'Created' and some were labeled 'Others'
"Yeah, you can put one in if you want, I suggest track 4, marked created. It's the song I wrote for Leo on his birthday," I spoke, messing with the buttons on a track I thought about singing
"Could you sing it for me please? I'd love to hear it live, please please please!" She begged
"Come on Bree, I don't want to bore you-" she cut me off by pushing me out of the chair to where I fell on the ground
"Hey!" I shouted giggling, she sat in the chair
"You tell me what buttons to press and you go in there and sing, I know you secretly want to," she voiced, I rolled my eyes and got off the floor
"When I head into the room, you press this red button, then adjust the one to the middle tick, and then press the button that says start, got it?" I explained, pointing to the three buttons
"Got it, go!" She shoved me towards the door and I laughed
Walking in I sit down on the chair and put in the head phones, I point to them and Bree grabs the ones next to her and puts them on
The track stared to play and I hummed the familiar song as I started to sing
Sometimes you think you'll be fine by yourself
Cause a dream is a wish that you make all alone
It's easily to feel like you don't need help
But it's harder to walk on your own
You'll change inside
When you realize
The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend by your side
That helps you to find
The beauty you are when you open your heart
And believe in
The gift of a friend
The gift of a friend
Someone who knows when you're lost and you're scared
There through the highs and the lows
Someone you can count on
Someone who cares
Beside you where ever you go
You'll change inside
When you realize
The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend by your side
That helps you to find
The beauty you are when you open your heart
And believe in
The gift of a friend
And when your hope crashes down
Shattering to the ground
You, you feel all alone
When you don't know which way to go
And there's no signs leading you home
You're not alone
The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend by your side
That helps you to find
The beauty you are when you open your heart
And believe in
When you believe in
You can believe in
The gift of a friend
I finish with a huge smile on my face as I see Bree cheering behind the sound proof glass, I laugh at her as I place my headphones down and walk back out the room
"That was amazing! You have to sing for all of us one day," Bree gushed, I laughed
"Sure thing, Bree," I spoke as we walked out of the room and into my bed room
I sat on my bed while Bree sat on the couch, then her phone rang
"Oh! It's Katelyn!" Bree exclaimed as she picked up the phone, jumping onto my couch and sitting down, I jumped on the bed on my stomach and had my legs up behind me as I opened my laptop
"Katelyn, can you believe it! I totally got away from my brothers and I'm sharing a room with a girl! Scarlett's room is huge! Now I can give you misguided boyfriend advice in peace, with Scarlett's help, too," She bragged, happily smiling
"Hi Katelyn!" I exclaimed towards Bree
"Scarlett says hi," she commented, she then looked towards me, "Katelyn says hi, too."
Then Tasha busted through my door and started to vacuum, and of course Bree couldn't hear Katelyn and I couldn't be on my laptop in peace, plus she barely comes in my room, what now?
"Tasha! Tasha!" We yelled until she finally turned off the vacuum
"Oh! Are you on the phone?" She asked like it wasn't the most obvious thing in the world, Bree then nodded with a mouthed 'yeah'
"Sorry. I'll just do something else," she spoke,
"Okay, Katelyn, where were we?" Bree asked, then Tasha started hammering a picture into my wall!
"Look, its you me, and Scarlett: BFF's that's Best Friends Forever," Tasha explained
"I know," Bree voiced annoyed
"I'm just so excited to have you up here. Scarlett's always busy or doesn't want to talk. Go ahead, pretend I'm not up here."
"Anyway, Katelyn, I would just give it some time, play it cool, and hopefully Rodney will come to his senses."
"Ooh. I wouldn't do that," Tasha advised
"Uh, do you mind?"
"Oh, sure. No problem," Tasha spoke, she then took Bree's phone from her
"Katelyn, it's Tasha. You gotta show that boy who's boss. If it were me, I would grab him by the collar and I would say, 'you are not gonna walk all over me mister!'"
I heard Katelyn crying on the other end, Bree and I looked at Tasha like she was insane, which isn't entirely wrong
"Oh, you're a crier," she then took the phone away from her face and placed it on her chest, "This is gonna take all night."
~~~~~~~~
All night Tasha was talking to Katelyn over her boy problems, but with some miracle I fell asleep
Can't say that much for Bree though, she scolded me the next morning for letting Tasha talk to Katelyn and her without me, so let's just say I have to make it up to Bree and I will
But now I'm waking up to some squeaking on glass, yawning I get up and see Tasha cleaning Bree's capsule
"Morning!" She exclaims, frightening Bree
"I just wanted to keep your new room fresh. Oh, and good news--I talked to Katelyn. She's back with Rodney. Yay!"
"Um, Tasha, no offense, but I moved up here so I could have some privacy, and Scarlett's giving me space, so could you...." she trailed off
"I totally get it, so look what I did, whee!" She pulled a rope and then a huge curtain fell over Bree's capsule
Then Tasha climbed inside Bree's capsule saying, "Privacy, yay!"
~~~~~~~~~
There was a knock at our door, Bree gave me a look that said, 'You do it!'
I rolled my eyes and walked towards the door
"Sorry, Tasha, Bree's not here," I spoke
"Scarlett, its Chase. I know she's in here," he spoke, opening the door he walked into my room
"I cannot deal with Adam anymore. Without you, we've turned on each other. I need you to come back to the lab and be the brunt of our pranks," Chase begged
"Really? Hmm. Here's the thing: I can't leave this place. Scarlett and I are having a lot of fun as roommates, and I just love it up here so much," She spoke
"Please, I'm begging you."
"Well, I guess maybe I could, as long as you promise me full privacy whenever I ask for it," Bree bargained
Chase scoffed, "Yeah! Like that's gonna happen."
Bree folded her arms, "Hm."
Chase then folded his, "Huh."
Chase went to open the door to leave my room but Bree ran over there and shut the door quickly, "Wait! I have to move back! I have less privacy now than I did before. Tasha is a smothering lunatic!" She pushed Chase back leading him to her capsule
"She stepped inside of my capsule!-" Chase gasped, "- I know! Boundaries!"
Then Adam barged inside my room, breathing heavily
"Yes, Adam?" I asked
"That horse just ate my giant plastic chili cheese dog, and I'm afraid to see what happens next," he gushed
"See what I have to deal with?" Chase pointed out as Adam walked around gapping at my room
"If you give me what I want, I can take care of that for you," Bree promised
"Okay, fine. Privacy whenever you want it."
"Adam, we're all moving back down to the lab. You're gonna get rid of the horse, and things are gonna go back to the way they were."
"What? Can you believe how bossy she is?" Adam spoke walking towards Chase
"I know. She's the worst. We should probably just stick together and do whatever she says," Chase explained
"Oh, yeah! That'll show her!" Adam exclaimed, walking out of my room leaving the door open
"Am I the only one who thinks an entire soap opera just went down in here?" I questioned
"Nope," Chase smiled, making me smile back as he left my room
"Hey, Scar, can you grab those boxes over there?" Bree asked, I nodded and picked up the boxes
"Guess what, Bree: I just read your horoscope, and it said you shouldn't be alone tonight!" Tasha gushed, walking into my room
"You know, actually, I'm moving back down to the lab. My brothers need me."
"Oh. Okay. Well, if you change your..." Bree then grabbed my hand and super sped us down to the lab
~~~~
The next day at school Leo came in with a helicopter, I was standing next to Chase asLeo went up to Jenelle
"Leo? What are you doing?" She asked
"Your ride awaits, M'lady," Leo spoke
The lunch lady then moved up, "Not you!"
Leo stuck his hand out and Jenelle smiled before taking his hand, walking Jenelle out of school
"Aw, look. Leo finally got Jenelle to go out with him," Chase pointed out
"Yeah, wait. Was that my jacket he was wearing?" I questioned
Chase laughed before putting an arm over my shoulder, he then stopped laughing and quickly moved his arm from my shoulder
"I should-" he stuttered
"Yeah, I uh, gotta-" I stuttered and walked to my class as Chase walked to his
His feeling of his arm over my shoulders still lingered, I smiled still thinking about it
I snapped out of it and sat down in my seat for class
What is this boy doing to me?
