I was practically falling asleep in my history class until the teacher said something that made me shoot up in my chair. "Class I'm assigning a project that is worth 25 percent of your grade." The teacher said. Ughhh why. I exchanged annoyed looks with my best friend Michelle. "Don't worry, I'm letting you pick your own partners" She said acknowledging our annoyed and anxious looks. 

I felt so much better. Michelle and I worked really well together and we pretty much always get an A on our assignments. Michelle and I looked at each other and nodded. 20 minutes later, the bell finally rang indicating it was lunchtime. Michelle and I linked arms and made our way to our usual table. I have been sitting with the same group of people since 7th grade. I'm now in 11th grade. We all have something to contribute to the group that makes us get along so well with each other. Yet we are all so different. Pidge, the group's youngest member is the smallest yet sassiest. She is also the smartest. She always has her nose stuck in a textbook or building something new in the tech lab.

Alex is the group's tallest, yet sweetest member of the group. He is always willing to help others and stand up for his friends. He also happens to harbor a large crush on Mitchell, aka my brother, aka our group's "Bad Boy". Mitchell is always finding ways to get in trouble and it's rare that he isn't in detention and is able to join us for lunch. My brother and I get along very well and I'm usually the one helping him with his silly pranks and stunts. 

But unlike him, I'm smart enough not to get caught by the teachers or principal. Then we have the other set of twins in our group. Kyle and Max.  Kyle and Max couldn't be less alike. Kyle likes to do sports, is a straight-A student, and takes all honor classes. While Max on the other hand has no interest in school, getting good grades, and being in clubs. Max still gets good grades and is in honor classes. But that is only because she is naturally smart. Max never has to study for tests or quizzes. She really has no motivation to study at all. It honestly isn't her fault because she has depression. We all make sure to be there for Max when she has her depressive episodes because it can get messy.

And that's an overview of our friend group. Were all super close and love each other like siblings. (well most of us except the ones who have crushes on each other).

After a couple more periods, the school finally ended and I hopped into Michelle's car. "Oh yeah, do you remember my brother Carlos?".  Michelle said as she started the car. "The one that got sent to military school for stealing from stores and beating up kids in school?" I said with a smirk. "Yeah that's him, well he's coming home today so be prepared for trouble." The last time I saw Carlos was about a year and a half ago, we didn't really end on good terms because I was devastated he was leaving. We got into an argument about how he promised he would be on good enough behavior to be able to stay. But then he got caught in an attempted robbery and he got shipped off immediately. He used to be my best friend other than Michelle of course. But him leaving ruined our friendship. I hoped that we would be able to put our differences aside because I really did miss him. 

I wonder if he looks different. And that's when I started to get nervous. What if he didn't remember me, what if he changed completely. Although it was his attitude and his sense of adventure that got him in trouble, I still loved his goofiness and all of the crazy adventures we went on together. "Amaya, we're here," Michelle said pulling me out of my thoughts. "Oops sorry I blanked out for a second," I said my face turning red. "Are you nervous?" Michelle said in a sing-song voice. "Why would I be nervous?" I said. "Maybe cus you're seeing the guy you've been in love with forever after not seeing him for a year," Michelle said. "Shut up," I said getting out of the car. 

"CARLOS!!" Michelle yelled running up to her brother and hugging him. "Hey, little sis"  Carlos said laughing. His laugh cut short when our eyes met. "He-" he started but I cut him off with a hug. "You idiot!!" I said with tears in my eyes. "Hi to you too," He said laughing. "I missed you so much," I said tears streaming down my face. "Never leave me again". "I'll try not to get into any more trouble," He said pulling me off of him and looking into my eyes. My face turned red as he kissed me on the forehead. This boy.
