Best Friend's Sister (Book 1)

1

A new school year. Fuck. I hate school, but then again who doesn't. It's literally a waste of time. I stopped in front of my locker and threw all my books in.

"Hey man," Seth walked up. Seth is my best friend, has been for years. We're always hanging out and doing stupid shit together.

"Hey," I said grabbing my math book.

"What's your schedule?"

"Skipping everything," I sighed.

He chuckled, "god I wish."

"I have math first."

"Well at least we get to sit through hell together."

"Your such a girl."

"God it's so hard. I've spent the last week with her while you were at your dad's," he groaned.

I chuckled, "hey your sisters not that bad."

He deadpanned, "you don't live with her."

"Whatever dude."

We walked into class and sat in the back.

"So what are we doing today?" I asked.

"I dunno. We could play games at my place."

"Sounds good." After that I shut up and did my work. It's my senior year, I'm trying to do at least some what good in my class's. Leave a sliver of a good impression on my teachers, well trying to.

Seth and I walked out of school and to his car.

"How'd you get here?" He asked.

"My mom dropped me off. She decided that she wanted to talk about me and my dad, and trapping me in a car on the ride to school was her best idea."

"Sorry man."

"Whatever." I sighed.

"I know you don't like your dad. Why don't you tell him that? Why do you still go visit him if you can't stand the bastard's guts?"

"Because it makes my mom happy."

"You're such a momma's boy," he teased.

I elbowed him in the ribs.

"I know."

"God you guys are such idiots," Zerena said as she joined us.

"Says the one who..." Seth started.

She glared at him, willing him to shut up or she'd kill him. He shut his mouth and walked around to the drivers side of his car. She got into the passenger side and I took the back seat.

We reached their house and Zerena quickly walked to her room slamming the door behind her.

"What's her problem?" I asked.

"She's pissed at me," he shrugged, "again. I never seem to get things right with her. Girls are so weird and annoying and moody and indecisive."

"I see someone read a dictionary."

He glared at me, "shut up."

"No thanks," I grinned, "so modern warfare or black ops?"

"Black ops."

I inserted the disc into the console and started the game. I handed him a controller and plopped down on the couch beside him.

Zerena's POV

After coming home I stormed to my room. I was pissed at Seth for almost saying something he shouldn't have. Dean is already suspicious about my secrets why the hell does Seth have to make it worse.

Speaking of Dean. Who the hell does this guy think he is? He's always hanging around Seth and it's like I never get time with my brother anymore. That's why last week when Dean was gone I spent all my time with Seth. Course I would never tell him that, he's a supportive brother but sometimes he doesn't take certain things seriously and teases me.

I just hate that he's never around. I mean our parents are already never around but that's the problem with them. They don't care. They don't care what their kids do and it pisses me off. Seth is just always here yet he's never here.

A knock sounded at my door and I stopped pacing. Wait pacing, when did I start pacing. I shrugged my shoulder and opened my door, it was Seth.

"What do you want?" I snapped.

"I'm sorry."

"What?" My voice softened.

"Sorry about almost spilling your secrets. It's hard, you know, keeping a secret from my best friend. I know it's girly and cheesy but I tell him everything, so for me to not tell him something is torture."

I giggled at my brother, "you're so girly."

"I've been told," he sighed.

"You alright?"

"Ya just tired."

"Ok. I forgive you."

"Really?"

I nodded, "you are my brother, your annoying as hell but my brother nonetheless."

"Thanks. Love ya Z." He hugged me.

"Love ya too S." I hugged him back.

He pulled away, "alright night Zerena. See you in the morning."

"What time is it?"'

"Close to ten. Why?"

"I was just lost in thought until you knocked on my door. I didn't notice the time going by. Whatever though, night."

"Night."

I closed my door-softly-and walked to my closet. I changed into my pjs and crawled into bed.

Dean's POV

I walked into my bedroom and laid on my bed. Ever since I've laid eyes on Zerena I'd had a crush on her. She was the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen, still is. She used to hang out with Seth and I all the time when we were little. Then she grew up, and distant.

When she looked at Seth in anger and slammed her door, it hurt me. It hurt that I couldn't go to her and make her feel better. I would do anything to be the person who makes her happy all the time. But Seth wound kill me if his sister and I hooked up. Plus I'm pretty sure she hates me. Don't know why, but she does. Guess I'll just have to ask her.
