"Hey." I stretched out. They looked at me suspiciously.

"Where were you?" Brian, my oldest brother asked me.

"I was out getting some coffee." I easily lied. "I drank it on the way here. Dad was right, shouldn't have stayed up late." I laughed, okay maybe I wasn't the best at lying. But then again, I've been in a secret relationship and they still don't know about it, I'm good.

"Mhm." Brian said. "Well hurry up you're going to be late to class." I grabbed my stuff from my locker and went to English class. I went in greeting the teacher and sitting in the front. I waited for my daily picking on but it never came. It was easily some hazing that went ignored, pushing, names but all in all it only came from him so it didn't make me suicidal.

"Hey Darren." Benn mumbled. "I just uh wanted to apologize." he said. With that he walked away. Well that was awkward. Benn never seemed sorry, why he apologize for that now? It seemed strange to me, until the bell rang and I see I had a message from Luca.

How was English class?-Luca

Great.. the weirdest thing just happened.-Darren

What?-Luca

You know Benn? He actually apologized... -Darren

That's good! Had a change of heart-Luca

More like a change of eye color... did you have anything to do with this?-Darren

Nope not at all :D-Luca

I'm just going to pretend I believe you.. I love you- Darren

I love you.. Can I see you before your last class?-Luca

It's my last class just wait, I need a way to sneak off from them-Darren

OR, you could just tell them- Luca

I'll think about it, I have to go they are coming love you-Darren.

I quickly put my phone away. As Alexander, the middle child, came over to me. "Hey." he said sitting next to me. Looking around before looking back at me and acting unfazed by the fact that I was acting weird.

"Hi." I replied, quickly turning my phone off when it began ringing in my pocket.

"So what are you doing here. We all always meet by the statue." he questioned. I blinked and cleared my throat. I totally forgot about that, it's always so difficult trying to keep up with all this.

"I was about to go there I just uh needed to check up on Mia." I lied. "Relax a little.

"Mia is our dog, are you hiding something Darren?" Alexander glared.

"No I texted dad and asked him how Mia is doing. You know since she's sick." I nervously laughed.

"Right. Now come along brother." meeting at the statue was our daily routine since freshman year for me. We always met there to just talk and hang around but since my brothers are popular they talk with other people while I just stand there and pretend I like these people. When in reality I just want to shoot myself in the face.

"Hey Darren." Jamie, my one and only best friend, though I think he liked me since he always flirted. But I only liked Jamie and his adorableness. We are close as brothers and I do not want to imagine myself with any of my brothers. Gross. And Luca would kill me, maybe strangle me.

"Hi Jamie. How was your math final?" I asked. Jamie looked at me shyly.

"Aced it. You?" Jamie was also, the smart one. But he was studying hard to get into and Ivy League college. Not me.

"Got a B. I swear I'm not going to get into any great college." I mumbled. I didn't want to go to college anyways. All I wanted to do was sit back, relax and watch life pass me by. I am so lazy, I am going absolutely nowhere.

"Hey my dad can put in a good word for you in Stanford." he suggested.

"I would love that but I need to try myself. But I'll consider it. Are you going there?" Jamie was a smart brainy person. His dad was well respected with the fact that he owned a big company but also as well because he served in the Marines.

"Yes I changed my mind and don't really want to go to art school." he said adjusting his glasses.

"Aw but you're really good at it." I said. Jamie was such an artist. He painted me and him once, it looked like us an actual picture we took. I couldn't believe my eyes but he didn't think it was that good. He is so strick when it comes down to his art.

"Thanks but you know I prefer to be a lawyer. So do you, want to do something after school?" he asked rubbing the back of his neck.

"I think that'd be a great idea!" Kye my other older brother said, barging in on our conversation. I sighed silently in annoyance. I didn't need others making decisions for me.

"Uh actually have to-"

"All you do is sleep you need to get out and have fun." he insisted. Mentally groaning, there was no getting out of this. I need to think fast.

Luca wasn't going to like this.
