"You're gonna be late." My mom yells to me from the living room.

"I'm coming." I spit out with my toothbrush in my mouth. I still have a week left of school before summer break. It can't come any faster.

"Hurry up!" My mom moves into the doorway of the bathroom. I spit the toothpaste and rinse my mouth before grabbing my back pack and following her to the door. "I'll see you later. Love you." She hugs me and walks out, waiting for me to shut the door.

"Love you too." I grab my penny board and turn around, locking the door behind me. "Woah." I come crashing into someone's chest and I know it's not my mother.

"Where you goin?" One of those twins smile down at me, amused at my rushing.

"School." I snap and walk to the elevator, pushing the button and waiting for it to come back up.

"You still have school here? That sucks." He shakes his head, trying to make small talk.

"Look, I'm late so beat it." I roll my eyes before stepping into the elevator when it dings.

"I can drive you." He smirks and walks into the elevator with me.

"I'm fine, thanks. Plus, 15 year olds can't drive here." I fold my arms and lean by the door, ready to walk out when it dings.

"I can get you an Uber." He shrugs and follows me as I bolt out the door.

"Why are you even up this early?" I shake my head and walk outside, stopping to text Ally not to wait up.

"Couldn't sleep. How about it?" He raises his eyebrows.

"Which one even are you?" I furrow my brows and stare at him. I haven't cared to pay attention as to which one is which.

"Grayson." He shakes his head and takes out his phone to get an Uber.

"Nah, I'm good." I put my board down and step on it.

"You could take my hover board!" Grayson yells at me as I start to skate away.

"Goodbye, Grayson Dolan!" I call back, trying to go as fast as possible in order to not be late.

******At School******

"Can I come over later to study for Bio?" Ally nudges me as I take a sip of my water.

"Yeah, sure." I nod as I begin to doze off.

"It's Dolan Twin Tuesday anyways." Ally shrieks as she scrolls through her phone and takes a bite of her pizza.

Dolan Twin Tuesday? Oh crap."Uh, actually, we have to talk." I shrug. I guess I should tell her before she kills me.

"What?" She puts her pizza down and faces me.

"I didn't tell you about something important yesterday when you came over." I shift nervously, afraid of how she'll react.

"Just tell me, Trin." Ally rolls her eyes.

"Okay. The Dolans kind of live across from me in that vacant apartment. Grayson or maybe it was Ethan also offered me a ride to school this morning." It all comes out in a rambling mess.

"WHAT!?" Ally screeches, causing me to flinch. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't think much of it, in all honesty. I was kind of pissed they now live right near me." I admit to her.

"It's amazing! We should, like, hang out with them or something." Ally perks up.

"I don't know. They didn't want anyone to know where they live." I shrug and throw away my food. Ally follows me, throwing hers away too. The bell then rings, signalling the end of lunch and start of last period.

"Come on. They're so nice." She begins to gush, once again.

"Stop. They probably just want to get in someone's pants." I roll my eyes and go to my locker.

"Whatever. I'll see you after school." Ally rolls her eyes back at me and strides away. I sigh and take out my books before heading to History.

******After School******

Ally and I walk into my apartment, heading straight to the kitchen. It's a routine: get home, eat, do homework, then chill. I put some pizza bites in the microwave because I'm lazy and take my Advanced Algebra 2 book out of my bag.

"Can you help?" I look up at Ally and see her on her Mac, as always. "Get off it." I shut it and hand her my book.

"Fine. You should pay attention in class." Ally opens the book to the page for homework and takes out a pencil.

"I do. Otherwise, I wouldn't be in all honors and AP classes. Today I was just out of it."

"I know." She grabs a paper and scribbles some things down.

"I'm going downstairs to get the mail." I tell her before heading out and shutting the door behind me. Maybe I can convince my mom to move? We can move into Ally's building and be perfectly fine. I just don't want to deal with those twins appearing out of nowhere and Ally freaks out. They're just kind of famous, not a big deal.

"Hey." I hear a voice behind me once I reach the doorway of the mail room.

I turn around slowly, seeing a guy with dirty blonde and bright blue eyes. His dimples complimented his smile, almost melting me. "Do I know you?"

"The twins were right, you don't know many Viners or YouTubers." He chuckles.

"I do too. I just don't like them. Wait, are you one?" I squint my eyes, as if it's going to help the situation.

"Yes. I'm Jack Dail." He smiles once again and grabs my hand to shake it.

"I'm Trinity Toures." I tell him, pulling my hand from his warm grasp.

"The mystery girl has a name." Jack laughs.

"I'm not a mystery. I'm an open book. You guys just stalk me." I shake my head and go back to our number and pull out the mail.

"We don't stalk you. Grayson stalks you." Jack informs me, coming up behind and looking over my shoulder.

"Tell him to stalk someone else." I push away, flipping through my mail as I walk back to the elevator.

"You see, you're pretty much the only girl we know that isn't either a YouTuber or one of our fans." Jack Dail continues to follow after me.

"You don't know me." I raise an eyebrow at him and step into the elevator.

"But we want to." He smiles. Dang, he smiles way too much. He's practically killing me.

"Yeah, okay." I shake my head and walk out to my apartment, only to see the scene I didn't want to happen today.

Ally is out in the hallway, hugging them. More like hugging the crap out of them. She's squealing and muttering incoherent things. Out of the corner of her eye, she sees Jack and I.

"Trin! Jack Dail!" She jumps off them and runs into Jack's arms.

"Trin huh?" Grayson, probably Grayson, smirks at me.

Fuck.
