Somebody Loves You by Betty Who

On Monday after skipping more than most of the day in school Jesse decided to man up and approach his first choice girl, or well only choice. He knew that if any girl would say yes that it would be her, she was oblivious to everything Jesse was anyways.

He knocked on the front door of her house waiting impatiently for someone to open the door. Finally someone did. It was a little boy, probably in elementary school Jesse guessed, given his Spider Man shirt. He was the only superhero who didn't deserve a t-shirt. Jesse noticed right away that he had the same bright blue eyes as Aurora.

"Who are you," the little boy asked snappily.

"Is Aurora here," Jessed asked instead.

The little boys calculating eyes roamed over Jesse's body. "Are you dating my sister," he asked bluntly.

"No," Jesse snapped. "I just need to talk to her."

"Well she's in the shower," he remarked. "You'll have to wait outside."

"Like hell," Jesse growled, pushing the boy inside and walking into his house. Jesse noticed the moving boxes stacked in the hallway to his left and the dirty plates on the coffee table in front of the TV. There was another boy sitting in front of the TV, a little bit older it seemed like who was holding a remote in his hands.

"What are you doing inside my house," the other boy asked defensively.

"I'm here to talk to your sister."

"No, he's here to kidnap her," the other boy said. "It's illegal to walk into some one's home you know."

"I do a lot of illegal things," Jesse said, making the boy's eyes grow wide.

"Like pot," the older one asked shocked.

Jesse analyzed the boy who had seemed to forget all about the game he was playing. "Why? Do you want some? I know a guy."

"What the hell are you doing here," a voice shrilled from the hallway. "And are you offering my little brothers drugs?"

Jesse turned to see Aurora standing in the hallway, a towel wrapped around her body as well as her hair. Jesse had to admit that he liked what he saw so far but that wasn't the point.

"I never offered and I need to talk to you," Jesse said.

"Can it wait," Aurora snapped. "I'm busy here."

"I can see that and no," Jesse said, "it can't. I have to go to work soon."

Aurora sighed and said, "Fine, let me get dressed first." She turned to go into a room farther down the hall. Jesse stayed where he was, not liking the stares he was receiving from her little brothers.

"Do you play football," the younger one asked.

"I used too," he admitted.

"Do you want to play in the yard with us? We just got a ball yesterday," he said excitedly.

"I said I used to," Jesse muttered, "not anymore."

"You're mean, you know that?"

"No," Jesse rolled his eyes. "I have never noticed that before."

"Well it's true!"

"Eric," the older one grumbled, "he's being sarcastic."

"I knew that," Eric said, his face flushing red. He pushed past Jesse and hopped over the back of the couch, landing next to his brother.
