The Bully Affect

EW DUDE!

~Ema's P.O.V.~

        After the meeting, we went straight home. I went upstairs to my room and started doing homework. After about a half hour, I was done with that and decided to read one of my many books on romance. Half way through the book, my mom called me for dinner. I got up and went down the stairs. I sat in my seat across from my older brothers and sat beside my baby sister. Mom and dad were both on the ends. We ate and discussed different topics. Suddenly my mom and dad directed their attention to me. "About the project...... are you sure this is what you want to do? It could open you up to more bullying." My mom said with a worried look. "I know mom. And I'm hoping they do. For the project. Obviously." I told her. "Well, I don't know if I'm comfortable with you staying with two guys...." Dad stated. "Dad! Ew, no. They are my friends. And they are to nice to do anything like that to me. Besides, I know better." I said, while bringing a piece of broccoli to my mouth. "Okay...." Dad trailed off.

After dinner I went  up to my room to continue reading. I got a few pages read before my eldest brother, Liam, walked in. "Hey baby sis. I wanted to give you this." He said handing me a little package. I looked at it. It was a pack of condoms. I quickly dropped it on the ground. "EW DUDE! Why would you give me those?!?!" I yelled. "Cause your going to be in a house with two boys for a long time. And we all know what will end up happening." He winked at me. "EW! No, not happening! One, I'm pretty sure Kyle don't like anyone in our school. Two, I'm a loser so Chris wouldn't try anything." I stated. "Sure..... but judging by your blush at dinner, I know you are keeping something to yourself!" Liam said matter of factly. I raised an eyebrow. "And what do you think that is?" I asked. "You like a boy. But its not Chris nor Kyle." Liam said. I went pale. Damn he's good. He could be a detective. "Ha! I'm right! So who is he...?" Liam asked sitting beside me. "Its one of the boys in the group for the project. Actually, he's the one who came up with the idea. He's like me. A 'nerd'." I paused. "But I don't think he likes me or would like me." I finished with a sad face. "Its okay baby sis." Liam said while hugging me. Liam and me have always been able to get along well since we were kids. We only fight on rare occasions. For the rest of the night we sit up and discuss different things. The whole time I though about the boy I've liked since kindergarten. And that one question ran through my mind as it has for so many nights before. Would he like me?
