*Ross's POV*

After we're all finished eating, everyone goes their separate ways. Gina and Rydel are sitting at the lawn chairs.

I walk over to them and sit next to Gina.

"Sup," I bounce my head back.

"It's funny how you think you're so cool," she laughs, along with Rydel.

I frown at her. "Well I'm the coolest in my family!" I argue.

"Really? Didn't you say you wanted to be like Riker cause he is so cool?" She smirks at me.

I open my mouth to argue, but I close it again considering I did say that.

"Well...I'm the strongest," I tell her.

"Sureeeee," she rolls her eyes.

I smirk as I flex my arms. Her smirk drops and her cheeks become a deep shade of red. "Like what you see?" I grin at her.

She shakes her head as her color goes back to normal. "Nah, I'm probably stronger," she giggles as she flexes her small, thin arms.

I burst out laughing, along with Rydel and Gina.

"Like what you see?" She winks. "Well, I need to go to the bathroom," she stands up, walking towards our house.

"Think she is going to find the bathroom?" Rydel asks me.

I shrug. "Probably not, but she'll ask Mom most likely."

I turn around and see Riker glaring at me.

*Riker's POV*

I watch as Ross shows off to Gina. He is flirting. I know when my brothers flirt. For Rocky, it's hard to tell if he likes a girl because he basically flirts with everyone. With Ross, on the other hand, he has this thing he does. I can't explain it, but he just goes by this routine he made up that basically works every time. After his routine, the girl is pretty much wrapped around his finger. That's what I'm worried about.

I march over to Ross and Rydel and grab Ross by his wrist. "Dude. Come here. I need to talk to you."

"What why?" He asks as I drag him to the other side of the backyard.

"You like Gina!" I yell at him.

"I do not!" He protests.

I give him a face. "I know when you like someone! You may not know it, but I do."

"Oh my god! I don't!" He shouts in annoyance.

"You guys were flirting! I saw it!"

"So what if we were! She is seventeen! She is five years younger than you! Do you expect to date her?" He screams.

"So you do like her! And wasn't it kind of my line about age being overrated?" I ask him.

"Whatever! And maybe I do. So what," he shrugs. Ross looks over his shoulder and Gina is back at the table with Rydel. "Sorry dude, but I'm getting her number," he sprints to the table.

I chase after him. "Ross!" I yell. He beats me to the chair beside Gina, so I'm forced to sit between Ross and Rydel.

"So Gina. I was wondering....can I have your number?" Ross asks.

She thinks for a minute. "Sure. I will type it in," she says. Ross grins brightly as he hands his phone to her.

Anger boils inside of me.

*Gina's POV*

I grab Ross's phone from his hand and type in my number.
God he is hot.
Wait. What am I thinking? I just met him today.
Well he still is attractive.
STOP GINA!

I mentally shake the thought away and hand Ross his phone back.

He types in a few things then turns his phone off.

I feel a buzz in my pocket and I pull out my phone, revealing I had a new text.

From: unknown

Hey cutie😉

I blush as I read the text.

"Cutie😉"

That's getting me. It's getting me good.

I then save Ross's number in my phone.

I look up and Ross is smirking while Riker's eyebrows are furrowed.
