Endless Conflict

17 | Eight Boys

My first thought was how could a house be so neat with eight kids living in it. Everything was in place and everything was perfect. It was absolutely amazing. There were chandeliers just in the hall ways, that was saying something. Brent was officially not only attractive, sweet and just amazing but he was also rich.

"We can give you a tour later." Sue says but then Tom shakes his head.

"No Brent can do that." He says as he gives us all a warm smile. We don't have to walk too far until Sue and Tom turn in and through two huge doors. The room that waits behind it is huge as well. And what shocks me most it too see eight boys, all boys seated at the table. They all look only a year younger than Brent, all of them. Except for one who seems to be about eight maybe, who's wriggling and squirming in his chair. The impatient one, it must be Connor.

"Eight boys!" Katie exclaims and all their heads turn to us. They all smile warmly and all their eyes end up landing on me. Which does make sense because I am Brent's girlfriend but it's still uncomfortable. Girlfriend, I officially love saying that. I'm Brent's girlfriend.

"Yes eight boys," Sue says tiredly "it's a challenge but somehow we do it." She doesn't say it meanly but still all the boys look a little hurt.

"Love you too mum." A dark haired boy says. He looks miserable and dark. You know how sometimes some people have that look to them.

"Bailey be quite, remember your still grounded." Tom says sternly but Bailey still doesn't look up.

"We don't leave the house ever anyway so really it's not that different. " He mumbles under his breath but I don't think Tom hears it. Sue and Tom both sit up each end of the table leaving four seats left for us. Brent takes my hand and leads me to a seat next to Connor who is the cutest little thing ever, he smiles up warmly to me as a take a seat in the chair that Brent pulls out for me. Brent then sits beside me and then it's Todd and then Katie.

"You must be Brent's girly friend." Connor says to me and I can't help but smile at him. Girly friend, how cute.

"Yes I am." I tell him and Sue and Tom smile at me warmly. I now notice the food on the table, there is so much of it and the only thing I can recognise is salad and some pasta.

"Wow, you eat like a king Brent." I only mumble it but Sue hears it.

"He sure does, they all do and yet none of them put on any weight what so ever." She says and sounds annoyed.

"Yeah mum, not all of us want to put on weight. AKA me." The boy across from me says this, he has browny blonde hair that he has to flick out of his piercing blue eyes.

"Well if you don't mind some of us would like to, so let's eat." Another boy says this. We all pass around the food and Brent helps me with what the food actually is while Todd helps Katie. Obviously he's been here a few times.

"So we should probably start with names." Suggests Tom glancing at all the boys and then back at me and Katie.

"Yes that would be a great idea." I say agreeing with him.

"Okay I'll start," says sue "my names sue."

Then it moves to Connor and then me and then Brent and then Todd and Katie and then Tom and then the rest of the boys.

"My names Sam." Instantly I think of Sam but this guys like an opposite to him on the looks department. He's still attractive but everything about him is the opposite to Sam.

"I'm Leo." He reminds me of a cartoon I watched when I was little, Leo the lion. He has fair skin that may as well be white and his blonde hair may as well be too.
