The Bad Boy is my Stepbrother

Chapter 3

"He did that?" Lauren puts her hand over her mouth. I nod. I called her over a few minutes after Liam left. I told her everything that had happened. "Well he was right about locking the door. What if he keeps it until senior year and shows the video out at prom?" I shake my head. "I'm going to make him delete that video. Even if I have to do it my damn self."

She laughs at me. Of course I changed before she got here. "Are you about to go on a date?" I ask her taking in her outfit. She was casually dressed but it looked as if she was going out on a date. "What? No! I can't come over to my best friends house and get dressed up?"

When she does a high pitched voice, scratch her arm, and raises her eyebrows, she's lying. "Lauren. You're my best friend! You can tell me anything!"

She sighs, "Well, yeah." "Aww! Who is it?" She plays with the bracelet on her hand. "Eric James." She blushes.

He was a decent guy. If you weren't careful, you could probably end up getting hurt. Seeing my best friend getting hurt, wasn't a good thing I liked seeing.

"Wow! That's great! Is it right now?" I ask. "Well, he's coming in like..." Before she could finish, a honk was heard from outside. We both giggle. "Good luck!" I tell her. "Don't do anything stupid on the first day!" I follow her downstairs.

"I know this Jade! I think it's you who needs to be careful." I give her one last hug before she leaves. Eric waves at me from inside his car. I shut the door before thinking of what to do.

I'm really tired and bored. I think I'll just take a nap. I run upstairs and fall back onto my bed. I don't want to change but I also want to be comfortable.

Changing it is. It's not as cold as it was earlier, which is good because I shaved my legs and my legs are smooth so I want to wear shorts. My comfortable pink plaid shorts and my "I need m☹re sleep" tank top

Shaving is the most incredible thing in the world because your legs don't look like a beast. I get comfortable in my bed, but my stomach growls. I groan to myself. "How come every time I'm comfortable, I forget to do something!" I remove the sheets and make my way downstairs.

It's been about an hour and my parents still aren't back. It's the afternoon and I was already trying to go to sleep. I pull out corn flakes and milk and eat my cereal.

I really need more friends. I think to myself. That was random, but right now I could be like Liam and at my friends house. But my friend is out and I have no other friends.

Before it I'm dialing a number. "Hey!" I smile to the person I'm talking to.

"Hello!" She says into the phone.

"How's it going?" I ask her.

"It's going good. How's your mother?"

"Oh she's fine."
"That's great! I haven't talked to her in a while. Oh, sweetie I have to go. My friends are here to play Bingo with me."

"Goodbye grandma! I love you."

"Thanks for the call honey! I love you too." And she hangs up.

That's sad. Even my grandmother has friends. I would call josh, but he's in Mexico. Lucas was my other closest friend. He's been in Mexico for about a month and won't come back for another month! He got his phone taken up so he won't be able to talk to me until I see him at school again.

Lucas was a cool guy. He and I were really close. I could tell him anything and ask him for some advice about guys and whatnot. The three of us were like..bread, mayonnaise and ham.

We had lots of fun together. We've snuck out to watch overrated movies. We'd go sneak out to go to parties. Ok, well that was only three times. Or we would go over to the park or lake and we would all just have fun. Since none of us had a car, Lucas would have to "borrow" his sisters.
