The Decuplets

The Romano's Rivals

Scarlett

Ella and I were currently out with Zander and Kevin.

We haven't hung out with them in awhile, so we figured some rekindling was well overdue.

"You'll love them," Zander reassured us as we were walking over, "they're dope."

Zander and Kevin had this group of friends who they claim are super fun.

The guys all go to another school, but they met through club sports.

They wanted to hangout, so instead of saying they had plans, they decided they wanted us to meet them.

As we approached, all the guys were copy and pastes.

Tall, same style, cute, athletic, and familiar?

Not sure why though.

"Guys, this is Ella and Scarlett," Kevin pointed to us.

"Dope, heard a lot about you guys," a boy replied, "I'm Asher."

They went down the line introducing themselves.

Asher, Nathan, Danny, Isaac, and Ben.

We ended up getting along quite well.

Turns out they go to Riverdale High– about ten or fifteen minutes away from our school.

Therefore, they invited us to a house party in their town tonight.

When we arrived, it was a bit awkward since we knew nobody.

But turns out, that was a one way street.

"Hi, I'm Scarlett," I smiled, drunk and social.

"I'm Adrian! Nice to meet you!"

"Adrian is, like, crazy good at basketball," Isaac told me.

"Not as crazy good as my man Isaac is at football!"

"Our school won both those leagues!" I bragged, but their faces went cold.

I thought it was an innocent tease!

"Your school has some dirty players," Adrian said.

"I am sure you know of those fucking Romano kids?" Isaac asked me.

My face went red.

Oh no.

"I do, actually," I laughed, clearing my throat.

"Fucking Reece bro," Adrian looked furious, "I've gotten into too many fights with that kid. He had me benched for two games this season, man!"

Of course it's Reece.

"Uh, well, funny story! I'm actually-"

"There's ten of those motherfuckers, too! Hopefully the sister isn't as fucked up as the rest!" Isaac kept going.

I've heard she's hot.

They didn't say that, but I imagined they did!

Danny and Asher came over with Ella.

"Why do you two look so angry?" Asher laughed, punching their arms.

"We're talking about those fucking Romano boys," Adrian answered.

"Oh shit," Ella said, looking at me.

"Did you tell her the Reece story?" Danny asked Adrian.

"Double oh shit," Ella repeated.

"Have you told them?" she whispered.

"Tried to!"

"Tried to tell us what?" Asher asked.

"Is Reece here," Adrian looked around, "I swear I'll kill him this time."

"No, um, my funny story was that I am actually the sister," I giggled awkwardly.

"What?" Danny was confused.

"I'm Scarlett Romano. Surprise!"

They looked even angrier.

"Hey, I don't blame you for wanting to kill Reece! Try living with him!"

"Or being with him," Ella rolled her eyes.

"You're a fucking Romano?" Isaac's eyes were wide.

"We," Ella slung her arm around my shoulders.

"But you guys are so," Adrian searched for the right word, "nice?"

"Don't let my brothers get between us," I said, as if we hadn't met hours ago.

"The Romano's right," Asher smiled.

Somehow we got past the hiccup and ended up partying, dancing, getting to know each other.

These guys were so fun.

You know, there is that thing about how they're my brother's rivals, but who cares!

"YO, THERE ARE TWO ROMANO'S HERE!" a random kid shouted.

"I HEARD ONE IS REECE! GET HIM!" another yelled.

"Jesus Reece, what the fuck did he do to these people?" Ella grumbled.

Zander and Kevin came over to us with the rest of the guys.

"They won't know it's you two," Ben said, not even believing it himself.

"I think we could have some fun with this," Ella smirked.

We connected to the bluetooth speaker and called Reece.

His voice echoed throughout the house.

Everybody was drunk as fuck, so they were losing their minds trying to find him.

"Scarlett, Ella, where the fuck are you two and why is it so loud?" He yelled.

This one boy we met earlier turned to us.

"IT'S THEM! GET THEM!"

Ella and I ran for our lives, hanging up on Reece of course.

We broke about eight vases, caused a guy to twist his ankle, pushed a girl into a pool, the list goes on.

Finally we made it far enough and the chase was over.

We sat down on a curb and called a car to pick us up.

"Well, at least now we know your brothers aren't the problem," Ella laughed, joking around and leaning her head on my shoulder as we awaited the Uber.

"They were never the problem," I groaned, downing the last of my drink.
