up my apple.He bent down at the same time and our head bumped hardly. I heard some muttered curse and then he jerked back up again and barked,"Jones wants everybody in the living room." He turned and left. I kept staring at him because I was sure he felt it too. That electrical shocks that passed through me when we touched. I soon snapped back to reality and dissmissed any ideas that tried to enter my brain. I walked out the door and followed the guys. When we entered the living room,David sat down silently on the red couch. Steve flopped down on the floor and stated throwing the ball and the wall. Pete, without looking up from his game, sat down in the computer chair. The other guy, still didn't know his name, silently brooded in the corner. I sat down on the couch next to David. I looked around. This place was.... There was a flat screen T.V in front of me. In the table in front of me, I could see 4 laptops labeled to each one of the guys. Pete Harrison, Steve Prescott, David Prescott and.... Derek Stryker. So, his name was Derek. Stryker...Stryker. The name sounded vaguely familiar. I was going crazy. Of course I've never met him. I kept looking around the room. It was filled with priceless paintings. Just as I was judging a painting of a girl, Mrs. Jones came in the room.
She looked at me with disapproving eyes. I looked down and saw that I was still wearing my PJ's. I had on my sponge bob shorts and a shirt that said "Brunette is the new blonde." It didn't even make any sense since now I had reddish copper curls. I had to change all my appearance.Except for my eyes. They had tried to put green contacts but the contacts just burned through my eyes. So I still had my blue eyes. When I had gotten out of bed today, I had just slipped my feet into a pair of beat up converse. Now I understood why Derek had ran away from me. I looked like hell. I grabbed a sweatshirt next to me. I put it on even though it basically swallowed me. I looked back at her. "So, I guess you guys already met." Mrs. Jones said. "I still don't know your name." Steve said to me, completely ignoring Jones. "It's Kri...Lexi. It's Lexi." I almost messed up and said my real name. I looked at Steve to see if he noticed. But he just raised his eyebrows. "Lexi, I have to speak to you privately. Follow me." Jones said sharply. I joined her outside the door, passing Derek in the way. I heard the door shut loudly in the silence. "I got your reports faxed in today. You'll be staying her for about 5 months."Jones said. But I couldn't reply. Five months!! Five freaking months in this house for doing nothing.!! I didn't realize that I was screaming at Jones until she grabbed me by the arm. "Shut up!!" she screamed back. I then felt a prick on my shoulder and then....black. Black everywhere.
