Filling in the Cracks

Chapter 24: Oh Boys

Dawns POV

"Get out!" I yelled running towards Lucas in nothing but my towel wrapped around me.

"Bye Dawnykins!" He yelled running out the door,

I let out a frustrated sigh and changed into my pajamas. Some people never change do they. It had only been an hour and he was back at it. I can't even take a shower in peace without thinking that snakes will be lying on my bed waiting to well you know do whatever it is that snakes do.

I picked up the container and brought it downstairs with my foul mood. I saw the two jokers also known as my brother Noah. Then there's Lucas, somebody that I knew, somebody I knew well.

Oh I'm sorry, did I not tell you who they are. Hmm, long story short. The Jokers.

Noah was in his last year of college, being 21. (Only four years older than me.) Tall, muscular, dirty blonde hair, and tan. Popular all through school and college like me. But I could care less about popularity.

We always had a close relationship. Let me sum up our lives. Prank after prank. That was about ninety percent, the other 5 was just us having our sibling moments and the other other 5 was him being over protective.

Then there's Lucas.

Lucas Ward my ex.

I broke up with Lucas. We had been going out since 8th grade and broke up in 11th when he had to move. Three years. Yeah long time.

I had never had a boyfriend like Lucas before. After I got a new number I kept no contact so i don't know if he tried to contact me or not.

I was too afraid to call it love so I kept my feelings personal as usual. Before I left him I didn't let those three words come out of his mouth.

'I love you, Dawn.'

Or maybe four..

I love him as my bestfriend, I just don't want those old feelings to take over again.

Where were we? Ah yes. Revenge. But that'll be planned out later.

I saw the the Jokers sitting on the leather sofa laughing there heads off. What the heck is there problem. Itching powder is not funny! I saw Lucas wiping a tear from laughing so hard.

That was it.

"Forget something?" I said with a flat look on my face and waving the itching powder in a hypnotizing way.

The laughing died down and that's when the laughter came to me.

"Plan backfired?" I said smirking now.

"Gimme that!" Noah said trying to grab it out of my hand. I ran towards the kitchen and Noah being the track and football star I think we all know who won that battle.

"You two haven't even here for two hours and you're pranking me?" I said in a flat tone plopping down on the couch between them.

"That's just how much we missed you." They said in unison ruffling my hair.

"I missed you so much Noah!" I pulled him into a bear hug.

"I'm here too." Lucas drawled.

I chuckled slightly. "I missed you too Lucas." I said giving warm smile.

"Don't give me the innocent crap. C'mere." Before I could reply he pulled me into a bone crushing hug.

"I want to," heavy breathing. "See my," heaving breathing. "18th birthday."

Noah cleared his throat and on cue Lucas let go and sheepishly smiled.

"Oh you will." Lucas smirked.
