My Best Friend's Brother

✦Chapter One✦

Beep Beep Beep!

I hear my alarm going off on the other side of the room, I'm sure you're wondering why I don't have it next to me. Well, if it's on the other side of the room, that means I have to get up to turn it off. Seems easy, right? It's not. Usually I will lay there for 5 minutes debating on whether to get up and turn it off or just throw something at it. This time I just decided to just get up and turn it off.

After I got up, I went in the bathroom after about peeing myself, great job Haleigh, then I hopped in the shower and washed my slim tan body, and my boob length brown hair. I get out and put the usual amount of makeup on, black eyeshadow in the crease only, fill my eyebrows a little bit, just a little bit of foundation, and finish it with some mascara and some lip gloss. I don't cake my face like most girls do in my school.

Once I'm done with my makeup, I go to my closet and try to find something to wear, I finally just decide on blue skinny jeans with a twenty one pilots t-shirt, and my converse. As soon as I grab my bag, I hear my brother Stefan yell for me saying it's time to go, I have to ride with him because I failed my driver's test but Stefan passed his, so I have to ride with him for only two more months. Stefan and I were two of triplets, our brother was the smallest and didn't make it through birth. But we try not think about it too much to keep us from getting upset. Once I get in the car I blast the music in my earbuds. About a minute later Stefan gets in and we drive off.

We pull into the school parking lot with in about 15 minutes. I get out and head in, not waiting for my brother. I'm about 20 feet away from my locker and I spot my best friend since the day I moved here, Emma Clark. As I walk up to her I embrace her in a tight hug. Her older brother has been across the state in college for about 3 years and I can tell she really misses him. I never met him because he went to college a year before I got here. But she's told me all about him so I feel like I already know him.

I'm snapped out of my thoughts when Emma speaks up, " Are you going to the end of the school year party at Andy's? You should come with me, my brothers coming back for the summer and I'd love for you to meet him!"

"Yea sure, I guess it's better than sitting in my room all night watching Netflix." I giggle.

"Sweet! I'll meet you here after school?"

"I'll be here."

We say our goodbyes and walk to our classes. I'm walking down the hall to Algebra but I stop when I heard a very familiar, angry voice... Stefan. I turn the corner and see Stefan pinning a guy against the wall, I run up and put my hand on his shoulder and try to calm him down, but he doesn't budge, so I yell for him to let him go, but he still doesn't. I yell one more time for him to let him go because now he's being choked. He let's him go alright, but when he does, he punches him and tells him to get the fuck out of his sight.

"What the hell was that?!" I basically demand him to tell me.

"He tried to get with Ava!" With that he just storms off out of the school.

I stand there, deciding if I should go after Stefan or go to class. Eventually I just decide on just going to class because there's about a 50/50 chance he'll come back. He's so stubborn. I just let out a sigh and continue my way to class. I know Mr. Walker is going to be mad that I'm late for the 3rd time this month but I really don't care, honestly I don't care about anything anymore. I don't even want to go to the party, I just lied to Emma because she's my best friend. I don't want her to see me like this.

"You better be getting to class before I write you up!" Comes a voice down the hall. I turn and look at the vice principal with an angry glare on his face. I have the urge to just tell him to go the hell and walk out because I really just don't want to be here, but it takes everything in me to just say I'm sorry and walk to class.

I look inside the glass part of the door and notice they are taking a test. Should I go in and interrupt? I place my hand on the knob and stop. I slowly start turning the knob, trying to be as quiet as possible. I don't like being the center of attention even for 30 seconds. I end up just go in as fast as I could to sit down. All I get is nasty glare from our teacher.

The day goes by in a blurr. Usually I would be glad the day's over, But not today. I have a party to attend. When I get to my locker, I see Emma waiting.

"So, you ready for the party?!" Emma squeals excitedly. I just nod and put on a small smile. She then starts talking to the girl beside us. I just keep to myself as I put my books in my locker. Grabbing my jacket and closing my locker catches Emma's attention. She starts yanking me out the doors and we drive off to her house to get ready, this is going to be a fun night Haleigh, just hide your feelings. No one has to know. As we get to her house, she walks in ahead of me as I stay behind. Her mom greets us at the door.

"Well isn't this a pleasant surprise!" Mrs.Clark says as we walk in. I tell her hello as I walk up the stairs to Emma's bedroom. I set my stuff on her bed as I sit down and groan, laying back on her many stuffed animals, but all have sentimental value, that's why she doesn't get rid of them. She finishes getting ready and we head downstairs to head to my house so I can get ready. We get to my house and I start by putting on some better clothes, I just put on my favorite blue denim jeans and my Twenty One Pilots t-shirt and my black converses. I then put some makeup on to look at least somewhat human, and I give my hair a light curl to make it wavy. We then go back downstairs down to Emma's car and we are off to the party.
