I wake up and put on a pair of jeans and a red button up. I walk downstairs and bump into my 13 year old sister Nikki. "Good morning Niks." I say. That's when I notice that she has her eyes closed and pretending to be asleep.

"I don't wanna go to school." She mumbles. I chuckle. "Come on let's go. Wait a minute." My eyes start moving down to her clothes. She was wearing tight short shorts and a tank top. "What do you think you're wearing, young lady? Go change!" I say. She rolls her eyes and walks back to her room.

I walk down to the kitchen and see mom flipping pancakes. "Good morning! Where's Nikki?" My mom asks. "She's changing into more appropriate clothing." I say.

5 minutes later Nikki comes down in ripped up skinny jeans, a blue and white striped t-shirt, and a maroon sweater. "Better?" She asks. I smile and nod my head. "The bus is here!" She yells and grabs a bagel with cream cheese. She kisses mom, and me. Then leaves for the bus.

"I gotta go too, mom. I'll see ya later." I kiss her on the forehead then leave.

I just left math class and had a free period. I decided to grab a coffee. So I went down to the new coffee place around the corner. I walked up to the cashier. "Hi, can I have a small black coffee, with 2 sugars?" I ask. The lady nods her head. "That will be $2.25." I gave her the money and got my coffee.

I started walking back to school, while playing more candy crush. I was in our ignore to my next class when I accidentally bump into Alex. "What the eff?!" She yelled at me.

My eyes widened. Through her wet white shirt I could see her black bra. "Oh my god! I'm so sorry!" I say trying to wipe off the stain from her shirt. "That won't do anything moron!" She yelled at me some more.

She took off her leather jacket and covered her front. "and stop staring!" That's when I realized I was still looking at her bra.

I turned around covering her front. "Come, follow me. I have an extra shirt." She first follows me still angry to my locker. I thought run around closing my eyes and hand her my orange t-shirt. She runs to the girls washroom and comes out in the t-shirt.

"You don't look that bad in orange" I say. She rolls her eyes, but I could see her blush a small bit. *ring ringg!* School was over and I started walking outside when I hear someone calling my name from behind.

I turn around and see Alex running up to me. "Look, I need a favour." She said.

"What is it?" I say. She started to act all nervous. I've never seen Alex Taylor all nervous and ask for a favour.

"Well, since you're the only one who knows my address. I need you to babysit my brothers and sister. My dad wanted me to do it since he was going to be out of town for a while, but I can't cause I have..um.. An important errand." She says.

She looked me dead in the eyes again, which scared me a lot. I couldn't back down on Alex, she will kill me. "Okay. From what time?"

"7:00-10:00pm and I'll pay you $5 an hour." She said. "Okay. I'll see ya later." I said. "Bye."

I arrived at her house right on time. I rang the doorbell. "Come in!" I hear someone yell from the inside. I open the door and go inside. I see Alex putting the twins in their high chairs.

"Thank god you're here." Alex was dressed in a black hoodie, and jeans. She handed me Mason and kissed him on the head. "Goodbye!" She said closing the door.

I put Mason on his high chair and fed him and his brother the baby food on the table. "Hey, you." I turn around to see Adrienne with shades on.

"Well, hello there little one." I said. She took off the shades. "First! Don't call me little one. My name is Adrienne." She started walking around the table. "Second! I like my mac and cheese very cheesy." Then she slammed her hands on the table. "Third! My bed time is at 1:00am."

I chuckled. "Nice try Adrienne. The first 2 rules were okay, but the third... You're bedtime is 9:00pm." She smiled. "It was worth a shot." Adrianne sat on a chair and fed the babies. While I started cooking her Mac and cheese. I made it extra cheesy for her.

After feeding the babies dinner I gave Adrienne her food. I picked up Mason and Miles and headed up stairs, where I rocked them to sleep. I came back downstairs and ate Mac and cheese with Adrianne. Adrianne told me about her dad. I guess the rumour was true Alex's dad was a billionaire pro fighter. He was The Paul Anderson.

Adrianne told me more. "Every Saturday when dad doesn't have work he teaches Alex how to fight. He said that once I'm 10 I'll be allowed to learn to fight like Alex." She said.

"How old are you now?" I ask her.

"I'm 8 and I can't wait to learn to fight." She said excitedly.

We finished our dinner and she helped wash dishes. It was 8:50pm. "You should get ready for bed now, Adrianne." I said. She nodded and ran up the steps to her room. 5 minutes later I head upstairs and knock on her door. "Come in!" I open the door to see her brushing her teeth in her private bathroom. She finished taking her shower and was ready for bed.

She fell asleep instantly, so I walked downstairs. I looked at the clock 9:04pm. I switched on the tv and watched family guy on Netflix. I started feeling sleepy so I closed my eyes for a bit.

"Noel. Noel!" I wake up to see Alex on the couch.

"Oh hey, you're back." I said. She rolled her eyes. She gave me $10 for the babysitting. "Wait, I need 5 more bucks." I say.

"I don't have $5 so I'm going to just treat you." She says walking to the kitchen. I was confused. What did she mean treat me? I see her come out from the kitchen with a pack of beer, a bottle of vodka, and glasses.

"Come on, let's drink." She says. "I don't drink sorry." I lied. I drank before, I just didn't want to get that drunk that I couldn't get back home.

"Here." She handed me a bottle of beer. I couldn't resist. I hadn't drank since I was 15. I grabbed the drink and started chugging it down. I put down the drink. She smirked.

"You said you don't drink." She said. "I drink." I said starting on my second bottle. In a an hour we've had about 6 beers and 2 shots.

We were drunk.

"You know I've always thought you were really mean." I said.

"Of course I'm mean! I'm just nice right now." She said laughing.

"So tell me more about your family." I say.

"Welllllll my mom died when I was 16, just last year." She said.

"Oh I'm sorry." I said.

"Don't be, she wasn't really there for me when I had my fights or matches." Alex said. "And my dad. After she died he's been focusing more on his work. Sometimes he doesn't feel like giving me fighting lessons anymore. He would just sit on the couch and drink."

After that we just stayed quiet and drank. That's when I texted my mom.

Noel: hey mommmmm. So yea I'm ggoin g too b stayyin att a friends placce tonite. See you tmrq. Night, I love youuuuu..
Mom👩🏼: you've been drinking again haven't you?
Noel: aw mom no I havvemr

I knocked out on the couch.
