I sat on my bed while I watched t.v and ate a bucket of ice cream. It was a Friday night and I had absolutely nothing to do. My brother Damian and his friends were downstairs being rowdy. I changed into dark grey sweats and a black v-neck just to go downstairs because I didn't want to be too exposed. It sucks when you can't be comfortable in your own home because some idiotic boys have to ruin it. I walked downstairs and took the tub of ice cream with me. Damian was in the kitchen getting soda for all the guys when he saw me go into the kitchen. 

"Hey Paige, what's up?" he asked while grabbing 4 cups.

"Nothing much. I'm hungry. Got anything to eat?" I replied back looking through all the cupboards in the house.

Nothing. Absolutely no food in this house.

"Yeah, we have pizza in the living room if you want to get some."

I clapped my hands with joy and headed into the living room only to be stopped dead in my tracks. I forgot for a second that my brothers' friends were in there. Ugh, life is complicated sometimes. 

"Uhm, you want to go get me a slice of pizza?" I begged.

He laughed and shook his head. He wanted me to starve!

"Come on Damian. If I go in there I'm probably going to lose half of my intelligence."He snickered.

"Come on, I'll go with you and introduce you to the guys." I put my hands up in surrender while I shook my head.

"Hahaha, you're very funny. I don't want to go in there with your immature friends. I bet they're all narrow-minded."

Damian shrugged his shoulders.

"It's your loss. I'm just going to tell you that we ordered mushroom pizza. Your favourite."

 He always knew where to get me, I was now tempted and thinking of risking half of my IQ  points.

"Fine, let's go!" I yelled.

I walked into the living room with my oh, so lovely brother only to see 4 handsome boys sitting on the couch laughing. They all stopped and turned my way; not looking away.

"Hey guys, this is my sister Paige," Damian said.

I waved at them trying to make this moment less awkward.

"Paige these are my friends: Kyle, Danny, Benjamin and Chris," Damian uttered.

I looked at all of their features closely. I'm not going to lie, they were all pretty cute but one guy caught my eye in particular, it was Chris. I studied him. From his hairstyle whichwas a gentlemen's comb-over to his emerald green eyes to his pasty skin colour. He wasjust perfect.

I quickly got out of his gaze and walked over to our polished cherry coloured coffee table. I grabbed the whole pizza box and started to walk away. 

"Excuse me, Paige, what are you doing?" Damian acquired. 

"I'm going to go eat this pizza. Duh Damian. Come on man, get with the program." Isnickered. 

I felt like I was being stared at as I walked up the stairs so I quickly turned my head and saw that Chris was still starring at me. After closing my door, the noise level went from tranquillity to thunderous. If I didn't know they were down there, I would've probably mistaken their noise for an earthquake.  

2 hours later

I was still sitting on my bed thinking of that Chris guy. I just couldn't get him out ofmy mind. No, no, no! I cannot be thinking like this anymore. I promised myself never toget attached to some guy in a short period of time. I can't just throw myself out there because I could easily get hurt.  

"You cannot simply just fall for some guy you just met," I told myself over and over.

"You just can't do that."

I walked downstairs again with the empty pizza box in my hand and headed toward the kitchen. This time it wasn't Damian in the kitchen but his oh so lovely friend Chris. My heart started to beat faster and I could feel my adrenaline starting to pump in my veins. Damian turned around and grinned. With the grin still plastered on his face, he walked over to me and cornered me. 

"Can I help you?" I blurted out.

"Feisty... I like feisty." Chris smirked.

I rolled my eyes.

"You know, I don't even know you but I could already tell that you have an unappealing personality." I spat.

I pushed him out of the way and walked back upstairs. His personality went from what I thought was innocent to repulsive in just a blink of an eye.
