Thread: Taboo Lives Revealed (Frelance and HelOfAGirl)

Ya, I was thinking you could let me tag along with you to a day of your school. I have never been to a public school before. We can tell everyone I am thinking of attending class there with you. He laughed as he got up before he slipped went to the door. Dad? He called out and waited for a few moments then when he didn't hear anything he pulled out his phone and quickly sent off a text and held it up to Carley. Say you are taking a car or your high and. Heavy footsteps coming down the stairs interrupted Damen. Wheres the leak? There was a short silent as Damen just looked at his dad who was still in the hallway then Jack walked into the room and looked at the ceiling for a second before he started to shake his head. Dad, I didn't want to hunt through the house for you. Jack just glared at his son but said nothing and Damen took the hint. Okay so me and Carley chose the aston martin. He held up the keys and Jack looked between them for a second then shrugged. Don't total it or I will send you off the military school. Damen chuckled but it was a bit forced hinting that there was something being left unsaid. So where are you going? You would not scare me like that just to tell me you are taking my aston martin as your car. So what is it that you want? Damen gave one look at Carley just to make sure she was still up for some fun then he looked back at her Jack. Carley, wanted to give me a tour of her school and maybe sit in on a class maybe. Jack gave Damen studied gaze then turned to Carley. You sure you want to bring him to your school? He waited until he had answer before he spoke again talking to both of them this time. Stay out of trouble. We don't want either of you to be on the front of a tabloid tomorrow. I don't want your parents to worry and the last thing I want id for you Damen to get you face in the press. We have had enough publicity for a while. It was amazing how fast Jack appearred in the doorway after she'd started to say into the cell that she was high and wondered if he knew where she could get- well before she could finish that sentence he was standing in the doorway not looking pleased at all. He needn't have worried, Carley never got high in her life, not even once, but Jack didn't know her that well yet. She had gotten drunk once, but her parents still didn't know about that. The only person who knew about that was a small group of her friends, well they'd use to be her friends. She watched how the two interacted and wondered if Damen made it a habit of deliberately scaring Jack like that. Then she reminded herself that he didnt have a normal life, any small mistake made in public or fighting, stuff that wouldn't normally end up in the papers, would end up in the papers because of who his father was. He probably couldn't even get into a fight without it ending up in the papers. Actually, I was hoping that Damen could sit in all my classes, she said, after Damen had said she wanted him to sit on one class maybe. But seeing the look on Jack's face, she asked, A tour of my school and just two classes? When Jack asked if she was sure, she nodded, I'm sure, glanced over at Damen and grinned. But her gaze returned to Jack when he spoke to them both. True she wasn't use to this lifestyle, but really what trouble could they get into just going to her school? In otherwards Carley thought Jack was worrying too much, or maybe being a tad bit paranoid? Until he'd said the last. She didn't want to worry her parents either. We'll be good, Jack. She looked over at Damen, and wondered how long ago her brother had his face in the press, and what for? Damen kept most of the smug look off his face as he face as Jack left the room muttering to himself. Once he was sure his dad was out of ear shot Damen looked bat at his sister. I think I am going to enjoy having a sibling around. Chuckling he headed out of the room. Come on I want to see what your school is like. Once they got upstairs Damen stopped as he saw himself in a mirror and groaned when he saw he was still in his dress shirt and suit jacket. He opened a closet by the front door and took of his jacket so he could hand it up then grabbed a worn leather bomber jacket and shrugged it on before he slipped back into his sneakers. I will go and get the car. He searched his pockets to make sure he still have his wallet and phone on him as he walked to the car. A few minutes later he pulled up in front of the house. He leaned over and opened the passenger side door letting the last few strings of a System of the Down song played out before a commercial for one of the local radio stations came on. When Carley got into the car he put it in gear and grove down the lane and through the gates at the bottom of the lane. So where is your school anyway? Carley resisisted the urge to check her appearance after Damen went to get the car. She knew if she did, she'd want to change and she didn't want to make him wait. Besides, she was eager to see everyone's reaction when they got to the school and saw her walk in with Damen. She would find out where her luggage was, and unpack when they got home. That's if one of the help didn't unpack for her. Carley jumped into the car as soon as it came to a stop in front of the house. She buckled up as he'd put the car in gear. She was so excited about this school 'trip' that she'd forgotten all about giving him directions to her school until he'd asked. After giving him directions, she glanced over at him. He'd said after Jack had walked away mumbling under his breath that he thought he was going to enjoy having a sibling around. Carley was thinking the same thing. Over there is the student parking, she said. The otherside of the parking lot was reserved for teachers and faculty. He had followed her directions and when the school came into view he had slowed so he could get a good look at it. Although slowing meant that he was going just barely under the speed limit since he had been going at least a few miles over for most of the trip if not more. Pulling into the parking lot he shut off the car and looked over at Carley. I please tell me you don't have kids breaking into song in the halls. I really don't want holly wood to have gotten that one right. He gave her a cocky grin that was mostly fake. He was nervous but not nearly as nervous as he was excited. There were few times that he was able to get a reason to go anywhere normal and even then no place stayed normal once people learned who you where. He knew that all to well. Alright so point out the people that you think have been nice to you for the sake of being a good person and not for. Well you know what I mean. He got out of the car and looked it slipping the keys into his pocket as he waited for Carley. Smiling to himself he looked over at her and his smile just like he had when he first mentioned heading to the school. How do you feel about letting these people spread a rumors that you know are not true? He knew that spreading rumors that incest ran in the family would boots the rating of anything he was connected to and that included the show. It crossed his mind that it might be a mistake but only in the way that his dad would be pissed at him for a few days and not that it would be the wrong thing to do. He had been toying with the press for years by spreading a rumor here and there just so he could laugh about how many poeple seemed to believe it. It didn't help that most of his friends did it well the people that passed as friends anyway. They had even caused some real trouble a few years back when he and his friends spread some rumors about one parent and found out later that they had been close to the truth. They had all slowed down they games for a while but no one actually stopped. Unable to resist, Carley responded, We only break out in song at recess. She grinned. Personally she was very glad that holly wood didn't get that right, because she couldn't carry a tune. At all. First she pointed out the ones that didn't treat her differently. Those were mostly the loners, the ones that had that obvious leave me the hell alone type attitude, that she knew was mostly fake. They were pretty cool, before the scandal came out they'd greet her with a nod, or occasionally a 'Hey' and then go back to starring off into space. After the scandal came out that hadn't changed. Then she spotted her 'friends', well the ones whom she use to think were her friends. They'd started whispering about her immedately after the scandal, not super popular, but they weren't geeks either. She'd thought that they'd always be friends. Then she pointed to a girl with long black hair, in the designer jeans and cashmere sweater. That's Stacy, head cheerleader, her boyfriend goes to college. Or so she keeps telling us. Suddenly she's telling everyone that she's my best friend, but before the press started following me around she couldn't stand me. Careful what you say around her and anyone who hangs around her. She paused, watching Stacy's 'crew' gather together near the entrance. They live to spread rumors. Carley leaned against the car, and didn't answer right away when Damen asked her how she'd feel about letting these people spread rumors that she knew wasn't true. There was that grin again. The one he had when he'd asked her if she wanted to make them regret changing on her. Somehow I knew that hanging with you was not going to be boring. Count me in, she told him. How often did she get the chance to cause some trouble? She was probably going to regret this, but what the hell.
