Being The Schools Nerd: The Bullied, The Misunderstood, The Unloved

chapter eight/ middle names and confrontations

I sat on a sun chair, book on my lap, and the blue sea surrounding the boat. I felt at peace as the soft sways of the waves slowly rocked the small boat. Sighing in content I sat back on my chair, and closed the book I had finished. Closing my eyes I took in the warm embrace of the afternoon sun. Suddenly the peace was disturbed, the waves swayed the boat vigorously. Fear sunk in as the thought of drowning sank in. I don't know how to swim; therefore, I will surely die. Something heavy landed on my stomach and I tried to push it off. I gasped for air as the pressure increased.

"Olivia!" Someone yelled in the distance as I struggled to free myself from under the too heavy object.

"Olivia, wakey-wakey! Eggs and bakey," Another yelled.

Lazily I opened an eye and looked up at the two pairs of identical dark brown eyes. The twins had huge grins as they bounced like children on my bed.

"Let me go to sleep," I mumbled as I pulled the duvet over my head.

"Come on Olly. We have to go to school," Liam said laughing.

"How did you guys get inside my house anyways?" I asked as I still held the duvet over me.

"Your mom let us in," Wyatt answered.

I removed the duvet off my head and looked towards the door. Where the other two waited. Damon leaned on the frame of the door while Wyatt stood erect, his arms folded over his toned chest.

"And my dad agreed to let four boys into my room?" I asked with a raised brow.

"He was too busy watching the game to notice or say anything," Damon answered

"This is a mutiny!" I cried out in exasperation

"Mutiny? Against what?" Liam asked, his brows knitting together in confusion.

"Against my personal sleep," I answered with a pout

"Please we woke you up ten minutes earlier than you would usually wake up," Jax responded

"Yes, ten minutes that could have been well spent sleeping," I hissed out.

"Don't make such a fuss about such a little thing," Liam said chuckling

"It is not a little thing," I said angrily. "Sleep is never just a little thing."

"Whatever. Get up so we can eat breakfast," Jax said as he jumped off my bed along with his brother.

I sighed and looked up at my white ceiling.

"Hurry up Olivia before the twins finish up the food. Knowing them they'll finished it in less than ten minutes," Damon said as he walked out.

I turned and caught Wyatt still standing at my door. He nodded and followed Damon.

Quickly I jumped out of bed and threw on whatever I could find. Not caring if it matched or not. I brushed my teeth quickly. I blinked a few times to get my eyes adjusted to the contact lenses. I forced my crazy hair into a ponytail as I made it downstairs. The twins had their plates piled up with food. Damon patted the seat next to him. I smiled and sat down. He handed me a plate with food.

"Thank you," I said with a smile.

"You're welcome," he said as he returned my smile with one of his own.

"Here I managed to steal a cup of juice before they downed the entire container," Wyatt said as he handed me the glass.

"Thank you," I said with a smile smile. I grimaced as I took a sip.

"What's wrong?" Wyatt asked worried.

"Toothpaste and orange juice should never be mixed," I said with a chuckle.
