Prologue

The end of my freshman year was coming and I'm scrolling through my Instagram, watching stupid girls in my grade who've changed their profile picture at least 8 times in the past hour with the same post.

I roll my eyes, scrolling continuously as my eyes scanned the screen. I honestly don't see the point  in Instagram anymore. I always contemplate whether to delete my account or not but something about the site just keeps me reeling.

I hear the door slam downstairs and footsteps begin to approach up the hallway.

I get up, knowing it's only my older brother by one year, Dylan trudging up the stairs.

The second I open my bedroom door, my brother along with a boy stopped in their tracks when they spotted me.

"Great ...what do you want?" Dylan scoffs

My eyes diverting over to the young boy with curls flowing around his head before looking back at my brother.

"Nothing, I was just wanted to tell you it's your turn to do the dishes," I state

"Bullshit," Dylan spits," I did them last night."

"Actually that was me,you haven't done them since
Tuesday."

"Ok whatever carter ,I'll do them later," my brother grunts as he continues making his way to his bedroom.

After another hour or so, I was huffing in annoyance after an extra hour of Instagram scrolling and YouTube surfing.

The boredom never ceasing.

My iPhone vibrates and I pick it up to find a new message from my best friend,
Mitchell: my dad is marrying Gabriella santos
Me:who's that ?
Mitchell:it's Elizabeth's mother
Mitchell:fucking Elizabeth de Leon
Mitchell:God out of all ppl my dad decided to marry the wicked witch of the west
Mitchell:pls kill me !!!
Me:sorry to hear
Mitchell:thx I can almost feel your sympathy over the phone
My stomach grumbling due to hunger. I make my way downstairs finding the kitchen already occupied.

"You don't have time for dishes but you have time to raid the fridge you know whatever plate you plan on using for this stuff it's only gonna add on to the dishes you have to do"I smirk.

I'm embarrassed when I realize it's not my brother but the boy who had followed Dylan to his bedroom earlier.

He's really cute I'll admit. With forest green eyes, and dimple dented smile.

"Oh, I'm sorry I thought you were my brother,"I smile sheepishly.

"It's okay. He sent me down here to get him some food. He made me a list of what to get."

"If I was you I would only take half of what's on that list, my brother only eats half of everything and it lays in his room for weeks"

"That explains the stench" he makes a joke "guess I'll just whip a sandwich or something," he says as he begins to prepare to make a peanut butter and banana sandwich.

"So are you a friend of my brothers'?" I ask, watching his movement through out the kitchen

"Yeah. Been friends for a while actually but this is my first time I've been to you guys' home."

"Dylan never mention you" I said

"Yeah, you either " he said. "So do you go to school with Dylan?" I ask in wonder.

He nods as he finished up the sandwiches and putting the supplies back in the right place.

" really? I've never seen you around." I remark and the boy furrows his eyebrows.

"I didn't even know you went to our school," he chuckled "are you a freshman?"

I sigh," sadly, yes. You?"

"Sophomore," he responds.

"Dude," my brother calls from upstairs,"are you done yet?"" I guess that's my cue to go."

I hold my hand out to him to formally introduced myself,"I'm carter, by the way."

He reaches out to my hand. The warmth sending goosebumps up my arms "nice to meet you, carter. I'm Alex."
