"He's your brother?" I spoke quietly,
"You guys look nothing alike, I mean you're blonde, he has jet black, hair?"
"Same father, different mother. I'm the older brother," he said while pulling up his zipper and flushing the toilet, he strolled over to the sink and washed his hands.
"I-uh I think I'm going to head home now?" I eased away from him,
"You can't go outside all by yourself nerd, it's too late. I'll drop you home." There he goes with that nerd shit again.
"Oh um thanks...", I went back into Chase's room and gathered my clothes and belongings, I wrote a note for him:
Hey Chase, you were asleep and I woke up not realising the time, your brother is going to drop me home since it's 1 am, I'll see you at school.
- Maya
Once I came out of Chase's room, Brody was still shirtless. He grabbed his keys and lead me downstairs. He brought me to a black Range Rover, it was pretty big, it's been my dream car from since forever!
"N-nice car.." still speaking quietly, his car was pretty clean apart from the burger wrapping in the back seat.
"Thanks. Why do you always stutter?" He questioned me again.
"What? I-I don't stutter." I attempted to say without the stutter, I covered my mouth with my hand. I no longer wanted to speak.
"You know, nerd, I think I would've liked you if you weren't such a nerd." He ruffled his blonde hair and locked eyes with me; he too has beautiful eyes, blue specks in the centre, expanding outward into the grey matter of his eyes.
"Why are you staring at me?" He asked
"You have really nice eyes!" I blurted out. I covered my mouth again and looked down. We didn't speak for the rest of the journey.
My house
"Thanks for the ride, Brody." I grabbed my things and walked toward my house, 'doesn't look like anyone's in...' I thought to myself, Brody interrupted my thoughts once more.
"Hey Maya," I turned on my heels,
"How about you hang out with me today at lunch?" He politely asked and stroked the back of his neck.
"What m-me?" I stuttered
"Yea, you. Dress nice tomorrow I'm considering taking you out." He stated
"S-sure. Bye Brody." I rushed inside of my dark house and turned the lights on, locked the door behind me and ran upstairs.
"Mama? You home?" I shouted throughout the house searching for her. 'Huh she must not be back yet, I'll call her.' I picked up my phone and dialled my moms number, straight to voicemail. I'll call her back in the morning.
The next morning
I woke up earlier than usual today, I went to my closet and picked out a nice outfit, a pair of pale blue jeans, a black crop top and my black pumps, I didn't need any makeup so I didn't wear any, just a little mascara and my usual lip gloss. I decided not to wear my glasses today to try and show off my eyes.
'He finally noticed me! This could be my chance!' I squealed with joy and headed downstairs. I saw my mother at the kitchen table, well she was asleep. I made her a quick hot chocolate, left a note and some spare change, I gave her a quick kiss on the forehead before walking out the door.
'I feel like today is going to be a good day, I look good and I feel good!' I got on the school bus to school with a massive smile on my face.
At school
As soon as I arrived I headed straight to my locker since it had a small mirror in it. I put in my passcode '5692' and unlocked it. I put in all my books and applied a tad more lipgloss before grabbing my chemistry book and locking my locker.
"Hey guys, look it's nerd! She thinks she looks pretty today haha!" I heard Janaéh shout across the hallways at me, I turned around and began walking to my next class before I felt a hand on my shoulder... it was Janaéh.
"So you think you can sit with us today? Is that what Brody told you? I think not, just because you were at his house last night trying to get him to fuck you doesn't mean you have the right to sit with us, right guys?", her posey all nodded and murmured in agreement.
"See, even they agree with me!"
"Well they kinda have to agree with you so that they don't get treated like shit..." I whispered lowly
"What was that you little bitch?" She stood in a threatening position, towering me almost.
"Nothing.." as I turned around I felt my hair being pulled and then falling on the floor; my books dropped almost immediately,
'WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK'
I could hear her gang as well as her laughing, I began to get red with anger, I picked up my book and dashed it in her face, I could feel my emotions and pain taking over me, as well as the Jamaican in me; as soon as that happened I saw Chase and Brody coming towards us.
"You little fucker, why do you think you can treat me like shit, you're not shit yourself are you? All you ever do it go around trying to give it to every guy in the school, matter of the fact you try to give it too anything with a pulse and a penis, so FUCK OFF" and with that I stormed off realising what I have just done.
"AAHHH THAT LITTLE FUCKING BITCH!" I could hear Janaéh screaming in the hallways before walking away. I made my way to the bathroom again and began sobbing, my legs hit the floor and I curled myself up, holding my knees between my arms.
"Fuck this school! I hate everyone, fuck it!" I cried to myself over and over again.
"Maya?" I heard a soft, gentle voice call out to me; the mysterious figure came and sat down next to me, embracing my body. I look up while their hugging and see it's Chase.
"What are you doing in the girls bathroom? You shouldn't be in here-"
"Shhh Maya, I don't care at the moment." Chase's soothing voice made nme settle a bit, a long with him rocking me back and forth.
"She's going to pay, I promise you."
Later that day, Chase and I went to the park and plotted against Janaéh, our plan was remarkable; it was fail proof.
