Rhea's POV:

The sun me square in me face and made a groan escape from my lips. "TONY CLOSE THE BLOODY WINDOWS!" I shouted at my younger brother.

 "RHE GET YOUR LAZY ASS UP!" my younger brother answered back. 

"MOM!" I shouted "your son is a pain in my neck!"

"You aint' any better young lady get your ass up! You've got school." my mom shouted back from downstairs. It was a sunny Monday morning and I was not feeling the mood. I always hated Mondays and the sun was not my best friend. Don't get me wrong I wasn't a goth or Emo but I just wasn't a very girly or sunny and cheerful kinda gal. I was bitchy sarcastic and boyish as I can be and I didn't give a rats ass who noticed. My mom was basically the same but just a wee bit more cheerful and girly. My brother? We were only eleven months apart and, he was the reason I grew up a boyish girl. We weren't twins but could be mistaken for it. We were as thick as thieves and as sly as them too. My world was perfectly imperfect and I was damn well happy that it was. I didn't know that that day, Monday, and also the beginning of my third year in high school, would change me.

"Momma if you don't put this stray you found on a leash i will!" I yelled.

 "Mommy i found a cockroach in the house!" my brother yelled as well. 

" RHE AND ANTHONY I WILL KICK BOTH YOUR ASSES IF YOU DON'T STOP FIGHTING." my mother shouted from the kitchen.

 " I'm going to work, so make sure you eat and lock the house before you leave okay?"she continued.

 " Yes mom." we shouted in unison from our separate bedrooms.

 " Later alligators!" she yelled. " In a while crocodile!" we replied.

15 minutes later we both bounded out of our bedrooms and headed to the kitchen. "Tony can you make breakfast?" I asked my brother. 

"Sure Rhe no probs" He replied.

 "So whats the plan for school today?" he asked. 

 " Well... the usual. Hate the classes, meet with the gang, chill, read in isolation, then come home." I said.

 " Ah, well have fun with that okay?" he said not really paying attention to me. 

 " Let's go tiger, we're gonna be late!" I said calling my brother by his nickname. He earned that over the years.

I got out of the school bus and looked around. The school was quite early in the morning. I walked until I reached the gazebo that me and my friends mostly occupied. I sat down with my new book to read , plugging in my earphones to block out the outside world. Half an hour later I felt a tight hug from behind and a familiar scent came to me. 

"NAY YOUR CRUSHING ME!" I gasped. Nayeli, one of my friends, released me and sat next to me. "Hey girl, how was your summer?" she asked me.

 " My summer was boring as fuck girl, i didn't do anything but read, eat, sleep, and do chores." I replied.

 " How about you Nay?" I asked my friend. 

" Boy, i went to Holland, then to Santo Domingo. It was fun." she said.

We continued talking and joking around when Ander, Matt, Claro, Nesca, and Leli came to join us. The table was full of life, jokes, and talk of the summer events. I stopped to look around and I appreciated the friends or as I called it my second family. I wondered how I ended up with such a loving and hilarious group of human beings.

 " Rhe don't look now but, there's someone passing." Nesca whispered looking at me. I looked at her with a confused look, but still sat rigid in my seat not looking back. From the corner of my eye I saw a head of curly dirty blonde hair and a glimpse of hazel eyes. I internally groaned and gave Nesca a look.

 " Ugh him. Why is he even alive still?" I asked rhetorically. 

" Because you want him dead and God tends to go against your wishes." Nay replied just to annoy me with a smirk on her face.

 " Well, God, I promise to be a god girl if you just make him disappear please" I pleaded with no one in particular.

 " Tsk Tsk, honey it doesn't work like that. You gotta go down on your knees and beg." Nay replied, trying not to drop to the floor laughing.

 " Fuck you Nay!" I said grinning ear to ear.

The 'He' we were referring to was Dan Hale. Shook high schools very own mystery. Now when i say mystery i don't mean that no one knows anything about him, i just meant that he keeps to himself and his small group of friends. The most socializing he does is when he's flirting with the girls in the school. And he's is a big flirt. But the main mystery about him is that he's never really had a serious girlfriend. He can get any girl that he wants but, he chooses to be single and... well... a player quite frankly. I used to have a small crush on him as he used to flirt with me but, I quickly got over it and look at him as a player and nothing more than a fuckboy. My mind never really lingered on him that much after I got over my crush on him. But he still throws smiles my way, and I just looks at him like he's gone mad. Today was no different.

Our school bell rang to let everyone know that school was about to start. 

" Guys i'll see you later i've got Science." I said as I got up and left smiling and waving at My friends. I entered my class, and I located my regular seat and sat down. I Listened to my teacher while I doodled and wrote the occasional note down. The rest of my morning went like this until lunch time came around. I walked outside and headed for my friends and told them I was going to my normal quite place. Nay stood up and asked me 

" Hey you ok, mi hija?"

 "Si Nay, im ok just want to go somewhere quite ." I replied with a smile. I left my friends and walked to the farthest staircase. I sat down and opened my little blue book. I started humming the song that was stuck in my head. 

" Nevermind i'll find someone like you,

 i wish nothing but the best for you,

 dont forget me i pray i remember you said,

 sometimes it lasts to love 

but sometimes it hurts instead.

I sang going high. " Hey Adele wasn't lying when she said that." A deep voice from behind me said.
