"N-Neil," I stuttered, turning my head to the side.

"Tell me," Neil said.

"What?" I asked.

"What's going on between you and Jer?" Jealousy was in his voice, and written all over his face.

"You sound jealous.." I said.

"No, I don't," he said, fidgeting. "Tell me what's going on."

"Nothing," I replied.

"That's not true," Neil sighed. "You slept together, Lendzie!"

"He was having a bad dream!" I sighed. "Me and you slept together!"

"That was different. I got tired of being nudged in the balls."

"Jeremy got tired of being chased by demons!" I said.

Neil rolled his eyes. "Tell me now!"

"Nothing is going on!"

"Don't lie to me." He seemed hurt. "I want the truth."

I sighed. "No."

"You guys fucked didn't you?" His arms dropped from holding my shoulders against the wall.

"What?" I yelled. "No!"

"Yeah, okay," he snorted. "Jeremy just gets naked sometimes."

"He sleeps naked," I shrugged. Neil rolled his eyes.

"Everyone knows Jeremy is afraid to be naked around people." What...?

"He is?"

"Yeah. I walked in on him once and he fell over and later I found him crying about it," Neil said.

"Oh.." I shrugged.

"He's not shy around you is he?" Neil asked. I shook my head softly. Neil snorted and shook his head.

"Why did he cry about it?"

"I don't know. He takes that kind of stuff seriously." Neil shrugged. "I'm one of the people who doesn't really care. Fuck it. If I know you pretty well, lets get naked."

I laughed softly. "You can put your plugs back in now."

"Oh yeah," he nodded, taking the earrings out of his ears and pulling his plugs out of his pocket. "School policies are dumb," he sighed, loosening his belt.

"I know," I nodded. "I can't wear booty shorts. I'm crying."

"Shut up. Guys dress code sucks. Girls don't have a dress code."

"Yeah we do. We have the same one as you minus tucking your shirt and wearing a belt," I said.

"Whatever. Anyway.. tell me..?"

"No, Neil." Neil slammed me into the wall again. "Ow!"

"Tell me!" he begged. The bathroom door opened and Jeremy grabbed Neil by the ear and pulled him away. Jeremy slammed Neil onto his bed and held him down.

"What the hell were you doing to her?!"

"I was talking to her!"

"Don't you ever lay a hand on her!" Jeremy said.

"Stop being so overprotective of me," I sighed.

"It's my job, right?" Jeremy smiled.

"I thought your job was to fuck her!" Neil said.

Jeremy glared at me. "You told him?"

I shook my head as Neil said, "Told me what?"

"Oh... fuck," Jeremy said. Jeremy let Neil sit up. Jeremy sat so close to Neil, their knees touched. I sat down next to Jeremy. "So
Neil, uhhhmm.." Jeremy scratched the back of his head. "Lendzie and I are... Lendzie is my girlfriend."

Neil smiled, "We knew it'd happen eventually."

"We?" I asked.

"Josh, Kevin and I. We knew it. Alex just didn't give a shit.." Neil shrugged.

"Oh," Jeremy replied. "I thought it'd come as a shock. Ya know, dating my stepsister and all.."

"Well, I mean she gave you a boner in science. Dear lord, child, I'm not stupid," Neil said, rolling his eyes.

-

"I'm tired!" Neil yelled.

"Stop yelling!" Jeff yelled. I laughed softly.

"Can I crash here?" Neil asked. I nodded and Jeremy shrugged. "What's the sleeping arrangement..?"

"Well I usually sleep with Lendzie but I'll sleep with you."

"I don't want you to sleep with me. I just wasn't sure if you guys shared a bed or not," Neil shrugged. "I don't wanna sleep with Mr. Peepants anyway."

Jeremy scowled and dropped his shorts. He slid his shirt off and crawled into the bed behind me. "You realize it's like... 5:30?" I said.

"So?"

"We haven't eat-"

"COME GET YOUR DAMN FOOD!" Mom yelled.

"Kay.." Neil nodded. All three of us ran downstairs, after Jeremy put his pants back on.

"And you felt the need to come out here shirtless?!" Jeff yelled. Jeremy sighed and went to go put on a shirt. "NO! If you came here shirtless, you'll leave shirtless," Jeff said, forcing him into a chair.

-

Jeremy, Neil, Mom, Jeff, and I all ate in pure silence. I didn't want to talk, honestly.

We ran back upstairs after being yelled at for Jeremy's shirtlessness.

Neil crashed on the bed and Jeremy threw his pants off and crawled in the bed. I grabbed some clothes and went to take a shower.

-

"Hurry up, I gotta piss," Neil said, beating on the door.

"Give me one damn second!" I yelled.

I quickly pulled my shirt over my head and walked out. "Thank god!" he yelled, running in the bathroom.

I rolled my eyes and laid down on the bed. Neil came back. "I'm tired," Neil and Jeremy said in unison.

"It's like 7:30, guys.." I shrugged. Jeremy tugged at the blankets I was laying on. I slid under them.

"Oh, hey there," Jeremy whispered, pulling me to him.

"I'm not listening to that shit all night." Neil groaned. I rolled my eyes and Jeremy sighed.

"We didn't even say anything!" Jeremy said.

"I heard you say, 'oh, hey there,'" Neil said, looking at us.

"Whatever." Jeremy shrugged. "This is my house I'll do what I want," he said before letting out a loud moan.

"Jer, stop," Neil rolled his eyes. Jeremy moaned louder. I kicked him in the shin.

"Ow," Jeremy sighed.

"Stop," I said.

"Fine." He rolled his eyes. "I'll stop."

"Thank you," Neil said. "It's like 7:45 but I'm going to sleep. I don't even care." He threw his shirt in the floor. He took off his pants and threw them into the floor as well.

"Don't stare at him," Jeremy whispered, jealously in his voice.
