Truthfully, I was slightly hurt. I mean, am I really that forgettable? “Oh, hun. I’m sorry.” Izzy pouted at me. I raised an eyebrow at her, “huh? I’m relieved.” I lied. “This way he’ll leave me alone.”

“You think I’ll leave you alone?” I shrieked, in a very manly way I’ll have you know, and spun round. Face. To. Face. With Kale. Oh great. Note sarcasm.

“You think I’ll leave you alone?” He repeated, a smirk gracing his pink lips. I nodded slightly. He let out a roar of laughter, throwing his head back.

His laugh rolled over me in waves, making me shudder slightly. Kale slowly calmed down, his laugh becoming chuckles before stopping completely. I sat with my arms crossed and a scowl on my face.

“I like you. You make me laugh.” He stated. “I’m glad I’m so amusing to you.” I grumbled, turning back to my food.

Alex had an adorably confused look on his face. “I’M SO CONFUSED!” He screamed, hands clutching his hair in a dramatic way.

“Awww, poor baby.” I cooed. I sat on his lap an gave him a hug, my head leaning on his shoulder. Alex was really, really, really sensitive.

The moment he felt left out, a toddler had nothing on him. He once threw a temper tantrum so big, he left cracks on his bedroom floor from throwing his fists against it. Me and Izzy call it ‘the incident of 08’.

All of a sudden, a growl erupted from in front of us. Kale was standing there, face red and fist clenched. His silvery blue eyes had anger and something else in them… Jealousy? Hurt, maybe? He gave me one last angry look before stomping off, calling the blonde girl as he went.

“That blonde bimbo!” Izzy hissed. “It’s not her fault.” I said. “What? She kissed him! In front of you. How can you not hate her?” She asked, her blue eyes curious.

“It’s not her fault that he kissed her. If you had a really hot boy come up to you and do the whole ‘look at me, I’m so charming and cute and funny. Go out with me’.” I explained. “Well when you say it like that…” She mumbled. I sighed, “come on. Lets just get to class.”

“Detention!” Mrs Faraway barked, her long, bony finger and hairy knuckles pointed at Alex. “For what?!” He protested. “I recently just looked at the homework you handed in. Do you know what the homework was supposed to be about?” She growled softly. “If Shakespeare undermined women in his plays?” He said, his tone becoming deadly.

Another thing about Alex- cross him and you’re as good as dead.

“Well, Mr Turner, I do not appreciate a two thousand word essay of why the Irish stereotype of leprechaun’s is unfair in today’s society!” Her tone became angrier and angrier.

I giggled and her head snapped towards me. “Detention Mr Young!” I opened my mouth to protest, but nodded meekly.

“I can’t believe her!” Alex shrieked. “Why, pray tell, why give someone a detention for laughing?” My heart swelled; he wasn’t upset for himself but for me. He glanced over at me, “why’d you look so happy? You just got a detention from the teacher in hell.”

“Thank you.” I whispered. A look of understanding crossed over his face as he slung one arm over my shoulder. “You know I’m always here for you kiddo.” He grinned and ruffled my hair.

Sure Alex was dramatic and to sensitive but he was protective, caring and my brother in all but blood.

As I left school, the sun was slowly sinking into the trees.

Fear and unease made itself known in the pit of my stomach. As I reached my house, what started as frightened butterflies turned into full blown snakes.

I opened my front door, wincing as it squeak ominously. Quietly, I walked inside and shut the door, resting my forehead on the cool wood. “Hello, boy.” I spun round. In front of me stood the object of my nightmares- my dad.

A perverted grin slowly slid onto his face, his 6’4 height towering over my 5’5. His large hand cupped my face and the other one slid up my shirt. “ Ready for some fun?” He murmured, his stale breath warming my face. And I screamed.

But it went unheard.

Basically, anyone who didn't get the gist of what happend towards the end, his dad sexually abused him.

I had to dedicate this chapter to CallMeAmonavis because he left me first comment on this story and made my day. As you maybe able to tell, I get a bit over excited with comments.

The adorible Christofer Drew Ingle will be  playing Alex, with his cuteness >.>
