I'm Your Who-Now?

"oh my cheeseballs" ~3

As soon as I stepped out of school, I saw Nate. I immediately ran up behind him and jumped onto his back.

"Boo!"

"Ahhh I'm so scared." He said sarcastically.

"You should be. I'm in a great mood right now. Which means...." I lead on, watching his expression go from thoughtful to understanding to scared shitless. I started laughing so hard my face probably resembled a tomato.

"You know what....I uh I have to go do....uh...something important."

"Ah ah ah. No way my dear brother. You still need a ride home. I'm your only hope." I smiled cheekily, leaning over his shoulder to face him, since I'm still on his back. He started grumbling incoherent words, the only sentence I heard was, "I'm gonna die today". I laughed again.

"Where's your faith in me Natey boy?"

"It went down the drain the first time you drove 'happily'"

"I can't help the fact that I drive a little faster when I'm happy." I shrugged innocently.

"You don't drive 'a little faster' you drive like a freaking maniac 30 miles above the speed limit sis!" I started laughing again, his panicked expression is priceless. Although I know he knows that I wouldn't do anything to put us in danger. I'm a very safe driver, even when speeding. Back in Georgia, I was a street-racer and some of my buddies there taught me how to speed carefully, and to not put anyone in danger. And I only speed when we are on a secluded road, which so happens to be the road we have to take home. Hehe.

"Come on my dear brother time to see your life flash before you eyes." I said jokingly. I jumped off his back and began speed walking to my car while I gave Nate the 'you better come or I'm leaving you on the side of the road all alone' stare. Although, I should mention, I'm walking backwards...so I didn't see the guy behind me as I completely ran into him. I'm a pretty fast backward walker, but I have no common sense to actually look where I'm going. Yeah, Nate started laughing it up over there.

"Nate I am so gonna get you back for this! You could have told me I was about to run into someone!" I shouted at my useless brother. Once I finished telling him off I immediately began apologizing to the guy I just trampled.

"I am so so sorry. I should have watched where I was going. If only Nate would have warned me otherwise...idgit" I grumbled out the last part in a low whisper, more to myself than the guy. I looked up to see the mystery guy from my photography class.

"Oh, you" I said thoughtfully. He chuckled, which oh my cheeseballs, was the hottest thing I have ever heard, it was deep and vibrated through his entire chest. I barely acknowledged the fact that my brother walked over here and was now right behind me, no doubt giving him a very intimidating look. Nate was always protective of me, but he became even more protective since the only two boyfriends I ever had cheated on me. My first boyfriend was in my freshman year, and my second was in my sophomore year. Both times I thought I had found someone who truly loved me and would never hurt me, but in the end I was naïve and trusted too easily. I shook my head to clear my thoughts, not wanting to relive my most oblivious and worst moments in my life. I had always been a trusting person, blindly trusting someone even if I had just meant them. Since then, I realized just how stupid I was, Nate and my best friend, Logan, tried to make me feel better by telling me that being so trusting was part of what made me who I am. However, I didn't agree, in my mind it was what made me weak. So ever since those two idgits, I never really trusted anyone as openly before. I had to shake my head again to pull me back to the present, and looked up to find both boys staring at me. I chuckled nervously and turned to Nate, seeing that he went back to glaring at the guy so I gently elbowed him.
