Tom pov:
After last night I'm done helping that girl. I don't care what my dad says bill can take on the responsibility of dealing with an ungrateful brat.

" how was y'all's night?"

" bill is taking over that little project you had me doing. She's a brat and ungrateful"

" what happened this time Tom?"

" we ran into her last night she flipped me off and then when we tried to offer her help home she was ungrateful and was refusing our help."

" that's a sorry excuse but I'm sure bill will be better at it anyway he's better with people and their feelings."

He wasn't wrong I could care less about peoples feelings unless I was close to you. And there was no way I would ever get close to her or get to know her.

Bill came down to join us for breakfast and dad told him he would be the one to watch her from now on. Bill agreed and didn't have any complaints on it. We may be twins but our personality is the complete opposite.

" Tom can you and bill go to the store for me we need some groceries."

" yea just give me a list and I'll go."

He gave me a list and We headed to the store. It wasn't to far from our house so it should be a quick trip. We soon arrived and I pulled out the list. I tore it in half and told bill to get his half and I'd get the rest.

Bill pov:
I went to look for my half when I accidentally ran into someone.

" I'm so sorry"

" it's fine."

The person stood up and I saw that it was Presley. She had a mark on her face and she was standing on her leg weird.

" oh hey Presley did you sleep good last night."

" Um sure bye."

" hey do you mind if I get your number I'm serious about being your friend I'd really like to get to know you."

" yea sure it's not going to work though."

I took her phone and put my number in and texted myself so I'd have it.

" I'll see you around Presley."

She didn't say anything she just walked away. Well this will be challenging. I got what I needed and met up with Tom. I didn't even bother telling him I ran into her because he wouldn't care.

We eventually got everything and headed home. When we walked in dad was in the kitchen and helped us put everything up.

" I got her number I ran into her at the store."

" oh that's good please be kind to her she deserves a good friend."

" yea ok but when are you going to tell us why we're doing this?"

" I will when the time is right just be there for her when she needs it ok?"

" ok"

We finished putting everything up and I texted her back.

" hey Presley we're throwing a party this weekend if you'd like to come."

She's not a fast texter which I expected so I'll just wait for her response. Our dad would be going on a trip soon so he'd be gone.

After about 40 minutes she responded.

" will there be drinks?"

" yes"

" yea I'll think about it"

" ok I hope you can come."

She left the text on read. I wish I knew why we were having to do this for our dad or what was going on in her mind.

I put my phone down and decided to go to my room.

Presley pov:

I wish I had t given him my number I think it's funny how hard he's trying to be my " friend".

I had to go and get more beer for my dad. He doesn't need it but I'm practically an alcoholic as well so I can't really say anything can I?

" I'm back with your beer."

I got a grunt as a response. I swear he's a pig he's messy like one and makes noises like one as well. I walked into my room and took out a book to try and get my mind off this pitiful thing I call my life.

The book was actually really good that I got halfway through. After I was done I quickly fell into a deep sleep.
