The Styles Triplets

"H-hi Alex." Marcel stuttered as he sat down in the desk next to mine.

I smiled and laughed a bit, "Hey Marcel, how are you this morning?"

"I'm good, how are you?" he replied back.

"I'm fine, thanks!"

Marcel nodded and then looked down at his desk, avoiding eye contact.
Marcel is a nerdy kind of guy who gets picked on a lot. I'm one of the few people who are actually nice to him. I can't help but feel sorry for the guy, he's a nice person and doesn't deserve any of the bullying he goes through.

"Hey freak." John told Marcel as he passed by, hitting back of his neck.
Marcel just say there and didn't look up to him or give him attention.

I tried to keep my cool. I have a bad temper sometimes and it could get me into trouble. When John and his friends do things like that to Marcel it just gets me so angry!
John is a jock...of course. So naturally him and his teammates are the ones that pick on Marcel the most. Except for Harry, Marcel's brother. Harry doesn't really talk to Marcel during school. It's like he doesn't want to ruin his reputation. Personally, I think that's pathetic. But I'd rather him not talk to him than bully him.
Harry and Marcel are twins...well...there's also Edward. They're all triplets. They may look alike, but they're completely different!
Like I said, Marcel is the nerdy one. He's also the oldest. And Harry is the jock, you know? The boy next door kind of type. He's every girls dream. He's the middle child. Then there's Edward...the bad boy. Edward is constantly getting into trouble and is just bad news.
I haven't actually talked to him since we were little, but I've heard some stories.

The Styles boys and I used to be best friends when we were kids, but when we got into high school...things changed. Harry tried out for football and made it. He was the school's favorite. He has all the girls after him...even some guys. Marcel had always been nerdy, but he started to get teased. Then Edward...he felt left out of the group. Harry was popular and he and Marcel weren't. So, he kind of went off on his own, started hanging out with different people. Now he thinks he's all cool.
Marcel is the only one I kept in touch with. I wasn't popular enough to hang out with Harry and his gang, and Edward didn't want to hang out with us, so I stuck with Marcel.
"Hey Marce?"

He finally looked up from his desk with excited eyes, "Yes?"

"How's Harry? And Edward?" I asked.

"They're okay. Harry seems pretty happy with his life." he pointed out and rolled his eyes, "Edward is fine, he and I have gotten closer actually."
His smile was from ear to ear! He really did look up to his brothers, even though he was the oldest, he felt like the youngest.

"That's good! I'm glad." I exclaimed.
It's good to hear that at least one of the boys hangs out with Marce.

Marcel scratched his head a bit in confusion, "Why do you ask?"

"I was just wondering. It's been a while since I've talked with them." I explained.

"Hm, that's funny. Edward actually asked about you the other day too." He said.

Too cool for school Edward asked about me?
"Really now?" I replied in amusement.

"I told him you were good and that we're still pretty good friends." Marcel smiled, "You know, I think you should come over today. Maybe we can all hang out and be friends again. I miss those days."

"Me too. And yeah I'd love to, it might be nice." I agreed, "Would you mind giving me a ride?"

"Not at all. Can I meet you by the flag poll after school?"
