Micah's POV
"I think you should stay away from Jaxton." My older brother Mason said, I tilted my head to the side as he continued.

"He's bad news Mi." I shrugged.

How would you know?

"I just do."

why would I talk to him anyways? He kind of scares me, even though he's quite attractive.

His arms were nicely covered in tattoos and his style of clothing was something else. I liked it.

Mason trudged out of my room, slamming the door on the way out. I flinched and glared at the door.

I sat listening to Sleeping with Sirens new album, Madness.

Jesus this track was good.

A noise erupted from my phone, telling me I had gotten a text message.

unknown: hey babe

me: Who is this??

unknown: guess!!

me: idk chase??

unknown: lol no

me: then who??

unknown: starts with a j and ends in axton.

So Jaxton is texting me and my brother told me not to talk to him, well this isn't really talking to him and I'm mute so I can't physically talk to him so I guess this is fine.

me: oh hi

Jaxton: Hi there!!

me: Uhm, what's up?

Jaxton: Talking to someone very beautiful

me: oh.. sounds nice.

Jaxton: It is

me: how'd you get my number?

jaxton: magicians never tell their secrets

me: you aren't a magician though ???

I pulled myself out of bed and tugged on my skinny jeans and oversized sweater along with my converses.

Gotta love my converses.

It was the weekend and you know what that means? No school.

I walked downstairs, quietly past my fathers room. How knows what would happen if I woke him up or disturbed him in any way.

"What's on today's schedule, baby brother?" Mason asked.

probably nothing.

"That's boring." He replied. "You can hang out with your cool older brother."

I was the youngest of three. Michael was the oldest, he was away at college. Lucky him.

Meanwhile, Mason and I were stuck here.

We live with our horrible father, abusive may I add. Our mother was out of the picture, we don't like to talk about her.

Since Michael was over eighteen and our mother was no longer here he had gotten custody of Mase and I. Even though we still live with dad, he isn't our legal guardian.

Long story.

Rather not

"Come on! It'll be fun! I'll invite Jay and Jax and Chase over if you like?" I sighed, I wasn't in the mood for anything.

You just told me not to talk to him?

"Well, he hangs with Jay so he can come over, but you just can't talk to him." Mason said.

Alright, whatever.

"Great!" Mason clapped his hands, running off to call the people he mentioned.

--
"Hello, bear." Jax said to me.

I rolled my eyes.

Bear?

"Micah, I don't know sign language."

"He said, 'Bear?'" Mason explained.

"Oh! Yeah, that's your nickname. You like?"

I shook my head, I am not a bear.

"Hurry up dipshits, the movie is starting."

Yup, Mason's idea of fun was watching horror movies.

Everybody sat down, the two couches being filled.

I sat in between, Chase and Jaxton.

"What are we watching?" Jay asked.

"Annabelle." Chase replied.

Oh goodie.
