         "What do you mean you haven't told him?" I snapped glaring at Diesel, who shrugged as if we weren't talking about something as important as moving across the country.

         "You'll understand when you meet him. Axel is an easy kid; he doesn't complain about anything." Hunter bragged from beside his younger brother. I glared at the two idiots standing before me wondering how they had survived childhood.

         "You're about to uproot his whole life and you haven't told him." I hissed. "No matter how easy a kid you claim him to be, he is going to hate you," I argued. They gave amused looks causing me to frown. I didn't understand what was going through their minds.

         Opening my mouth to shout at them more I was cut off by the front door opening followed by a deep bark and suddenly a large Rottweiler was running into the kitchen while growling, his eyes set straight on me. My eyes went wide as he charged me, his teeth bared. "Shit!" I yelled before jumping up from my chair, while frantically looking around for an escape or something to use as a weapon in case the beast came after me.

           "Arrow, how many times do I have to tell you not to scare people for fun?" An entertained voice called out, the dog immediately lost his threatening look, sitting down on his haunches, and looking back at the boy who had just entered the kitchen, with a huff. Giving the dog a wary look I turned to see what I would have to assume is Diesel and Hunter's younger brother Axel leaning against the doorway to the kitchen with his arms crossed over his chest and an amused look on his face. "You are such an evil dog." He chuckled as the dog sprang back to his feet making me flinch before I realized he was walking back to Axel and sat directly on the boy's feet. The dark-haired boy smiled before reaching out to pat the dogs head.

         "What the hell was that?" I asked bewildered. Did they not just see that dog about to tear me to pieces. Axel turned towards me with shrug.

         "Sorry Arrow has a weird sense of humor, don't worry he's harmless." I stared at the boy as if he was crazy, which, being related to the two idiots standing on the other side of the kitchen island, wouldn't honestly surprise me.

         "The dog was going to attack me," I argued looking to Diesel or Hunter to back me up. They both rolled their eyes.

          "He wouldn't attack anyone unless they were hurting Axel," Hunter explained. "Axel trained Arrow himself. There's not a mean bone in the dog's body. What you saw was him pretending to be scary, and now that he thinks you're scared he'll keep fucking with you, next time he does it tell him to shut up and he'll leave you alone."

          "I'm not scared," I argued.

           "The look on your face says differently." Axel chuckled causing the other boys to roll their eyes.

           "So, what's this talk about uprooting my life?" The dark-haired boy asked coming to stand at the island, Arrow walking pressed up against his leg until Axel stopped. "Go play." He ordered. The dog snorted before glancing at me. I glared at him before he turned around and sauntered out of the room.

           "We're moving," Hunter stated casually. I narrowed my eyes at him. How could he just say that so casually, when we started talking about the move a few months ago, the guys had explained this was the only home Axel had ever known.

           "Cool, where are we moving too?" He asked. I frowned at him. Was he not upset that he would be leaving the only place he'd ever known, all his friends, basically his entire life?

           "To the west coast." Diesel answered.

            "Can we go sight-seeing when we get there?" Axel laughed causing both older boys to groan and me to raise a brow.

           "Why the hell would we go site-seeing? You're blind you idiot." Diesel rolled his eyes.

           Axel gasped, "I'm blind? Since when?" He shrieked.

            "Since birth idiot." Hunter groaned while crumpling a piece of paper up and throwing it at Axel's head. It smacked him right in the forehead.

            "Hey, it's not nice to throw things at a blind kid." He grumbled reaching up to rub the spot between his eyes with a pout.
