Crazy 4 U

"Hey Snowflake,"

I feel a cold chill down my spine as I hear that agitating grating voice.

I give him a sharp look then I say in the most high pitched sarcastic voice "Oh hi Theodore."

I make sure to use his full name which I know he hates.

"Snowflake" Theo is the only person who calls me that, most people call me Mia or blue for my blue eyes.

Him on the other hand thinks he's better than everyone else and unlike me he's actually not.

He thinks just cause he's smart and tall and everyone's in love with him that he can just treat people like they're below him.

That name for example I know it's not him trying to be creative but he's comparing me to my brother.

My brother Jayden has naturally red hair ever since we were little but I've always had blue eyes.

But unlike Jayden and Claire's relationship over the years, Theo's never been sweet to me.

He started calling me "Snowflake" when we were young.

He told me that my personality sucks and why would he want to be friends with someone like me when I wanted the four of us to play together.

He said my brother and I were like fire and ice that's why we have our unique features.

So in his eyes I've always been this ice queen of a cold person who isn't good enough to associate with him.

And every "Snowflake" is a reminder of how disgusted I make him feel.

And when I was younger it made me feel really bad but over the years I've learned to not care and retaliate.

Because I will never let somebody make me feel small again.

And you must be thinking "why don't you just talk to your brother or Claire about it."

Well because unlike Theodore and Claire who are very close and have the sweetest sibling relationship where they help each other out.

My brother would watch me fall down a flight of stairs and start crying laughing.

And I could never ask Claire to choose me over her loving brother.

Besides I can hold my own.

Soon Claire gave me a look as if saying please not today.

And I throw my hands up and mouth what.

I mumble, "I was just saying hi, plus he started it."

Claire rolled her eyes at me again and I swear they'll get stuck back there someday.

As I was eating my food I'm chatting with one of my friends because Claire was a little...occupied.

About 5 minutes passed and I feel a tap on my shoulder.

I look around to see Claire and my brother staring at me.

"I was thinking..." Claire said.

"Eh hem...private conversation" I say squinting my eyes in my brother's direction.

"Ight, I'm not pressed" He says taking his arm from around her shoulder and turning to talk to Theo.

We laugh a little it is funny to see how hooked she has him sometimes.
