I woke up from a startling dream. It was really weird there was a watermelon that was being cut up and I was screaming while for some reason and Sam was laughing evilly. Oh and I also woke up wet.

"Finally there awake!" Todd said, I could see he had a jug from pouring water on me. Why had he poured water on me, I don't know. But he sure looked guilty.

"What?" I heard and felt the voice close by, startled I fell from the couch. It was Brent he was wet too and looked very tired and confused. Not to mention hot. Oh no I was doing it again! We must have been pretty close on the couch. Great, I'd probably never hear the end of that from Katie.

"You tipped water on me." Brent looked at me wide eyed.

"No I didn't." I confessed and I pointed to Todd who did do it and looked very guilty with a water jug in his hand. Obviously it was him. It didn't take rocket science to figure that one out.

"No I don't think he's looking at you for that reason." Katie looked at my top, so I looked at my top. It was white and with white tops when you put water on them you could see through the top. But it wasn't that bad my bra was only blue nothing revealing at all. Brent must jut be a very innocent minded child.

Sam leaned over me and peaked at my top. "Hey!" I squeaked pulling the blanket of Brent and onto me covering my not really revealing reveal. Sam pouted a little as I did so and walked over and into the kitchen.

Then I saw it, Brent had a white top on too and had a huge scar on his stomach. It ran from his chest area and then across all the way down to his hip. Not that I should say stomach it was more like abs. Brent quickly grabbed another blanket from the ground and put it around his stomach but I did get to see the scar though. I gave him a concerning look and he ignored it.

"Well anyone hungry?" Sam came back from the kitchen with a huge plate of pancakes and no top on. I sear he had a top on two seconds ago. Maybe I just didn't notice. I had to admit though his abs were amazing, I mean they were Hollywood style. Did all these guys have abs?

"Put some clothes on!" I yelled while shielding my eyes. But Katie on the other hand was probably enjoying this. I peeked to look at her and yes I was right she was thoroughly enjoying it. I forcefully stood up taking the blanket with me and so did Brent.

"Rule number four no going around my house half naked." I say continuing from the rules from homework night. I heard Brent chuckle from behind me. Sam whined and then did a stupid little tantrum while putting his top back on, much better.

"I'm going to get changed." I said dropping the blanket and looking at my now drenched top.

"Could I please borrow maybe one of Tom's tops?" Brent said quietly behind me. I looked at him, they were probably the same size, Brent was just more bulk, good bulk though. He sounded shy about it. Probably because he'd just brought up Tom though.

"Sure." I said smiling hiding my pain as memories of Tom came too me. I walked up the stairs heading to Tom's room, it was so sad. I stopped at the door and sighed before opening it while Brent followed me in. I sat on his bed and picked up a photo frame with us two in it and looked at it. I felt Brent sit next to me.

"I'll never be able to move on." I said. Brent put an arm around me. Surprisingly I don't knock it away.

"It's easier said then done, trust me I know." I looked up at him he had a grave expression on his face. What did he mean by he knows? Just when I was about to ask he stood up quickly searching Tom's room for a top but chose a singlet instead. He turned his back to me while pulling of his soggy top and pulling on the singlet. His back was amazing, did Brent have to have amazing everything?

"I'll just go get changed." I tell him and I walk slowly to my room and got changed into a new top and bra which were both wet. Courtesy of Todd.

I walked down into the kitchen where Sam was making pancakes while dancing around the kitchen whistling. I came and leant against the bench.

"Hello, hungry?" Sam flipped some pancakes over. Oblivious to my expression which I felt was a scowl. I was worried about Brent and his scar.

"Not yet." I said while cleaning up all the mess he'd made which was a lot. After this I was going to make sure he never stepped foot into the kitchen again.

"This is going to sound weird," I warned Sam catching his attention. "But have you ever you know maybe seen Brent topless?"

Sam looked at me with wide eyes. "What, why?"

I bit my lip, I wasn't going to tell him what I saw just in case. So I came up with... "It's a yes or no question." I stabbed him in the chest with the spatula. "

Um," he went to say yes but stopped. "No actually, I haven't." He said unsure of himself. "He usually turns his back to us when he gets changed and I guess I've just thought nothing of it." He has a quizzical look on his face.

"I'm hungry!" Todd had walked in, I gestured to Sam that he wouldn't bring up what we just talked about and he nodded.

"Well here you go!" Sam chucked Todd a pancake. Katie came in giggling with Brent. We all sat down to eat but I wasn't hungry so I headed outside and sat on the porch. Sam, Katie and Brent all got up to follow me. Was I not allowed so sit on the porch without being accused of being upset.

"I'm fine guys, just sit down and eat." I sat down on the steps and put my head in my hands. I couldn't cry cause I had not tears left to cry with. I felt a hand on my shoulder, and pushed it away I was really fine as fine as I would get.

"It's me." I heard Katie say as she sat down next to me.

"I'm sorry I'm just," I stopped and looked at her, I had no idea what I was feeling. "I don't know." I said quietly.

Katie stood up and kicked the closest object which was a post. "Owwww!" She screeched. Todd and Sam and Brent came running out. After Katie had recovered from her huge kick in the post she said with a scowl, "I just hate seeing you so lost, you always know what your doing who you are and, and, how to be. And with you lost I'm lost! I can't take this any longer!" She stormed down the steps and opened her car door slamming the door behind her and driving of.

"Wow." Sam said blandly.

"She's pretty upset." Todd pointed out even though it was so obvious he had to point it out.

"Really?" I said sarcastically. Sam put a hand on my shoulder I shoved it of, I was sick of sympathy. "Okay you guys can go." I said turning to the boys who looked at me shocked. "If you want to." I said quietly. "I don't think I'm going to be that fun to hang out with for a while." I smiled trying to cheer up the mood.

"I'll go." They all said at the same time. They all walked to there cars and all drove off.

I headed back inside feeling slightly guilty for being so rude to them all. I just needed some space.

Suddenly I felt the ground coming closer and realised that I was collapsing, fainting. Then I felt the ground.

"Georgia!"
