Caught In The Crowd - Chapter 6: A Warm Welcome.

Hi again, cuties! Wow, it's been a while. Hahaha. Anyway, right now I'm a little bit down cause I really thought you guys would "reach" the rule so much faster! They're only 10 comments! Not more, not less... I just want to say that I would truly like to compromise myself with you guys to post many chapters a day, as long as you compromise yourself with me to comment and tell me what you like, or maybe dislike, about my story. With all the honesty in the world, I really enjoy reading your lovely comments, and incidentally, that's an oportunity I take to talk with you. 

Everytime I log in Blogger, I always check the comments and views counter... and I can see how many views I recieve per chapter and I don't understand why I don't get the same number of comments as I have with the views... I mean, Blogger has this amazing "Anonymous" option that you can simply comment a post without the need of creating an account or something! And I know you need to follow certain steps to comment a post... but guys, they're really simple and quick! Don't be lazy and move those asses... I'll tell you: at the end, they would be worth it. Well, anyway, here's the chapter you all were waiting for... & I really thank the readers that commented in my last post. It means a lot. 

~Sincerely, Holly.

Well he wasn't lying when he said I'd be embraced in hugs. Jazmyn's mom, Erin, gave me the biggest hug I'd ever had in my entire life. 
"Oh my gosh, thank you so much for looking after her. Thank you, thank you, thank you!" She exclaimed as I passed her Jazmyn. Justin's dad also said thank you, but not as loudly.

"Why is everyone yelling at five in the morning, and why is there some random girl in here?" Some kid grumbled, who I recognized as Ryan Butler. As everyone sort of left into their rooms, Ryan came up to Justin, who hadn't left my side. "So Justin, who's the babe?" He asked and I blushed and looked at the floor.

"Uh, this is (YN). She found my sister." Justin said slowly.

"Well, I should probably go." I said awkwardly and stepped back towards the door.

"You don't have to. Hang out with us for a while." Justin insisted.

I laughed. "I have school in like three and a half hours."

He shrugged. "Skip school."

"I like school." I told him honestly.

Ryan smiled. "What's your favourite subject?"

"Computer technology… and English." I said simply, placing a hand on the door handle.

"I hate computer technology. Why do you like it?" Ryan complained.

I laughed. "Cause I'm a nerd." I told him sarcastically.

Justin laughed. "Are you good at it?"

"Betcha she sucks." Ryan joked and I rolled my eyes.

"You got Twitter?" I asked.

He nodded. "Yeah."

"Betcha I could hack your account in less than five minutes." I told him flatly.

"You bet me? How much?" Ryan asked with a smirk.

I shrugged. "How much you got?"

"Five bucks." He said and shrugged.

I laughed. "You're on kid."

He smirked. "Bring it."

Justin took me to the living room while Ryan went back to the bedroom to get his laptop. Justin sat down on the couch and gestured to the seat next to him. I sat down and he turned a little to face me.

"Can you really hack his account?" He asked and rose his eyebrows.

I laughed softly. "Yeah, of course I can."

"So that means you're really good at computer technology." He stated with a smile.

"It's not that hard, just a lot to remember." I said quietly, looking at the floor.

"So you could teach me how to make a website." He asked.

I nodded. "Sure."

"Invent a game?"

I nodded again. "Mhm." I mumbled.

"Hack his computer?" He asked, his voice getting a little bit higher each time he asked something.

I shrugged. "Justin, I could teach you how to hack some random's computer. I could teach you how to… I dunno, hack the computer of a bank, shut off the network and then get the combination for each vault."

He smiled. "So you could teach me how to be a criminal?"

I nodded. "I won't. But yes, I could if I wanted to." I said as Ryan came back in with his laptop.

He sat it in my lap. "Off you go beautiful. Hack my Twitter."

I smirked and opened the Internet. I started up Twitter and looked over at Ryan.

"Less than five minutes. You can time it if you want but I don't see any point." I told him and turned back to the computer.

"Okay, ready… go." He said quickly and I set to work.

I copied the website, opened a computer folder Ryan probably didn't even know he had and put it in. I filled out all the algorithms and equations faster than I ever had before and the security system cracked. I found his email and password and typed them into Twitter. His account opened and I smirked and looked up from the computer.

"That was three and a half minutes." Ryan said quietly. "Three and a half freaking minutes." He said again, a little louder.

"Calm down. I won't remember your details or anything." I told him.

He shook his head. "No, it's not that… it's just… oh my god, that's…"

"Insane." Justin finished for him.

Ryan nodded. "That. Is. Insane."

I smiled slightly, signed out of his account and closed the computer. I set it on the table in front of me as Justin's phone rang. He got up and left the room.

Ryan sat down beside. "Jeez, I forgot to take his phone." He muttered.

I laughed softly. "Why would you take it?"

He rolled his eyes. "Because he needs to stop talking to his girlfriend." He said sourly and pulled a face.

I looked over to where Justin was still on the phone, then looked back to Ryan. That comforting. He lied within the first five minutes I'd actually met him. Nice.

"Ah, so he does have a girlfriend." I mumbled more to myself.

Ryan laughed. "You set sights on him or something?"

I gagged. "Nah, he told me he didn't have a girlfriend though. The liar." I said lightly.

Ryan frowned. "He has rules that he needs to go by…"

"You mean… rules from Selena, sort of rules?" I asked, looking back over at Justin to make sure he wasn't right behind me.

Ryan nodded. "Uh, yeah. I just think she doesn't want him to tell people that could be fans of his that they're dating. I can tell you're not really into him eh? But you can probably imagine what some of them might do…"

I pulled a face. "Yeah, I can imagine it… Well anyways, I better go. I might actually skip school today…"

He chuckled. "See, you aren't a nerd. You're pretty cool."

I laughed softly. "I'm just good at school?"

He smiled. "Exactly. Not a nerd, just good at school." He laughed quietly. "See ya (YN)."

I waved as I got up. "Bye Ryan, it was nice to meet you." Ryan smiled.

Justin got off the phone as soon as I waved to him. "You going?"

I nodded. "Yes, I want to go back to bed." I told him honestly.

He laughed. "Okay then." He gave me a hug and I opened the door. "See ya around (YN)." He said and winked.

I smiled and waved, but really, I had no idea what he meant by that.
