Thursday, 24 September was probably the first day I walked into school without my brothers at my side. Under normal circumstances, the personal space would've been welcomed with open arms.

Unfortunately, nothing about anything was normal anymore and with every step I took into school, all I could think about was that four of my brothers were currently bed ridden with severe gunshot wounds and all four of them would be stuck there for two to three weeks.

And then the personal was definitely not accepted when some dweebs decided that it would've been a good idea to pick on me because my brothers weren't there.

My day had been going perfectly fine so far. My friends and all of their chaotic energy was a great distraction from what was currently happening at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

It was lunch and the seven us were strolling the hallways together while we stopped at everyone's lockers to leave their books. Seven of us being myself, Derek, Kobe, Mike, Kendall, Camila, and Vallyk, the kid Camila did her French introductory assignment with.

Yes, my group was in the habit of adopting strays, and I was one of those strays.

"No, 'cause Robert Downey Jr. is the chaotic mess of a bae that I want." Camila continued her rant about how she'd never get to meet Robert Downey Jr. and that's he's too old for her and everything also relating to that.

"Well Derek here," Mike grabbed both of Derek's shoulders from behind, "would be a very 'chaotic mess of a bae'." He mocked Camila by making his voice sound squeakier.

"Okay 1," Camila huffed dramatically along with adding a just-as-dramatic eye roll, "I do not sound like that and 2," she looked over her shoulder to smirk at Mike, "you can have Derek as a chaotic mess of a bae-"

"No thank you." and "Fuck no!" filled he air at Mike and Derek's interjections.

Camila hummed and giggled to herself, "I would rather keep fantasising over much older Marvel men that I cannot have." She looked back in front of her as she spoke.

"Amen!" Kendall cheered and high-fived Camila.

"I second that!" I added, laughing as the two of them high-fived me.

"You girls are weird." Vallyk snickered.

"Part of the package, baby boy." Kendall responded, "You want in with the guys, you gotta accept the girls and all their weirdness."
