Fight or Flight

Chapter One

Wow. Day one of year 10. It's been a year since the incident. I'm still trying to recover. I guess... It really sucks though. My moms a mess and only God knows where my dad is. Eli never left my side though. My brother Eli. Yeah, him. A lot of people know him as the 'Big Boy' out of all the 12th years. All the girls think he is sooooo fine. He's really not. He's just a basketball dork with good hair and he's tall. Couldn't say the same for me.

I'm a decent height. Around 5'10, Eli's 6'3, so yeah. My hair is dark brown with a weird ass haircut. Nothing like Eli, though. He's a brown-eyed blonde. I have blue eyes. Probably because we have different dads since my mom is always running around with a new man. They all suck. She has bad taste in men. They all are so ugly too. Like... Uglier than me-

"LUCASSSS-!!" I hear Eli yell from downstairs. Ugh. Of course he needs me. It's probably to throw something at me or get him a damn water.

I jump off my bed and sling my hoodie off my lap, onto the floor. Typical teen behavior. As I walk down the stairs, one of my AirPods fall out of my ear, hitting the ground with a sharp, small sound. My Odetari stopped. Damn. It was a good song too.

"HURRY YOUR ASS UP!" Eli yells, I hear something hit the ground. I roll my eyes and rush down the stairs faster, snatching up my AirPod as I get to the last step. "What?!" I growl, looking around the living room. Eli was sitting on the couch, a girl beside him. Eww... She was ugly. Her hair was messy and she was scrawny. Like... A twig. She had no boobs or anything. Where's her stomach? I could see her ribcage poking through the top she didn't rock. Eli's hand was on her thigh. So weird. I look at her. She looks at me and smirks.

"This is my girlfriend, Dani. She's so hot right?" Eli asks, smirking at me. I knew he was joking. Probably was just bored. She was probably some like prostitute off the side of the road.

"Hi, sweet cheeks. I'm Dani." She says, and smirks at me. I had a bad feeling about her.
