With Christmas behind us and ringing in a new year with a new commitment to each other, I was happier than I ever been, all thanks to Scarlett. Even though I wasn't sure about her at first, I couldn't imagine not having her in my life now.

After the New Year, we would return to a new semester at school, but until then, we kicked back and relaxed. Plus, Dad and Mom were having a New Year's party this year. God, I hope nothing went wrong this year like last year. I don't think Dad could afford to replace dishes again like last year.

While I was hanging with Scarlett and the others, we didn't know trouble was brewing in the form of our younger cousins the hellions at their house.

Nik and Micheal were hanging out in his room, listening to music. Nik was lying on his back with his eyes close as he hummed to the music.

"Hey, Nik? Can I ask you a question?" Michael asked.

He opened his eyes and rolled over, "I guess. What's up?"

"Are you ever going to ask me out?" Michael questioned.

Nik gave him a look, a bit surprised, not knowing what to say. Then looked at Mike, "I figured you would have asked me first."

"Oh, so you expected me to make the first move?" Mike questioned.

"Well, you were the first to kiss me," Nik grinned.

"Oh, fine. Nik, will you be my date to the New Year's Eve party?" Mike asked.

"I would love to be your date," Nik replied, smiling.

Mike reached up and pulled Nik into a kiss; then, things got intense as he stood up and taking Nik with him. Michael moved Nik until his back hit the wall and kissed him more intensely.

They finally broke breathlessly, "Wait. I can't do this here. There are way too many people in the house. Plus, I want to take things slow."

"Anything you want, Nik," Mike said, pressing his forehead against Nik's. "You don't know how happy you make me."

"Probably as happy as you make me," Nik said, giving Mike another kiss until Mack walked in on them. Nik saw her, "Mack."

Micheal turned around, letting go of Nik. She walked over to them, "You lied to me."

"What?" Nik asked.

She walked over to Michael, "You told me that you're just confused, and you still liked me. So, which one is it? Are you gay or confused? It seems to me you have no idea what you are."

They could see the anger in her eyes.

"Look, Mack, I'm sorry. I didn't want to hurt your feelings, but I like Nik," Mike said to her.

"Then why lie to me?" She spat.

"Because you were so pushy about it. Do you think this was easy coming to terms with this? No, because why would you? It's all about you," Mike said to her coldly, in which she slapped him.

"You're such an asshole! I hope you're both happy together," she shouted back at them.

"Mack, that's enough! You told me that you were fine with this," Nik said to her, raising his voice.

"Nik, you're my brother, and I will always love you no matter what, but you have no right to tell me how I should feel," she yelled back.

"No, I don't, but you have no right to act like a spoilt brat either!" Nik barked.

"You want spoil brat, I'll give you spoil brat," she screamed, then threw the biggest tantrum which proceeded with her picking up things and chucking it at them, causing the items to break.
