"Humanity is like an enormous spider web, so that if you touch it anywhere, you set the whole thing trembling...our lives are linked together. No man [or woman] is an island."

"You're going to be late." I said to my older, much more badass brother, Carter. He smirked and took a water bottle from the fridge.

"It's just college. I'm in on a scholarship anyways." Carter arrogantly said. I rolled my eyes, this kid is so stupid, I'm surprised he graduated school.

"Scholarships can be taken away." I said as Damian walked through the door. Carter's face lit up the same way it does when he first sees me and when he is off fighting people.

Damian ruffled my unmade hair causing a strand to fall to my face and wrapped his arm around Carter's waist, kissing him passionately.

"This is some gay stuff happening." I awkwardly said with a laugh. I'm not homophobic, I just don't really like seeing people openly spread herpes.

Everyone has herpes.

"Good morning." Damian said putting down my daily dose of cafe and bread with butter.

"Good morning to you to. I see you're here to kidnap my brother and take him to college?" I suggested while getting up, chugging down the coffee.

"Get ready already!" Carter yelled. I laughed, turning around to get a clear look at him. He looked nothing like me, he has a strong jaw, high cheekbones, he was manly and strong. I didn't have to look in the mirror to see my scared face and doll like eyes. I had more of a soft jaw but still, girls like that, I think. And he had brown eyes, I had a blue green color. Then again we're half brothers. Both have tanned skin because of our shared mother, who is never here.

"Call me if anything happened, Neon." Carter said pulling me in for a hug. When did he show up there?

Carter was dressed fancy today, a button up shirt with some jeans and converse. I looked down at my half naked self and pajama pants.

"Bye." I said hugging him back. I know that he's only in this ghetto city of Chicago because of me or else he'd be in NYU or something. I wished we lived in Evanston or something, we'd actually have a chance there.

"Bye squirt." Damian said pulling me in for a hug. I laughed when he started to tickle me a bit.

"Stop Damian!" I gasped as he continued to tickle me.

"Okay, okay. Keep laughing." He said kissing the top of my head, with that the couple of 4 years left without saying another word.

They were my goals. I'm literally in my senior year and I haven't even dated. I haven't even gotten a first kiss! Sure enough, the kids at school make fun of me for it.

Especially with Carter out of school, I don't really have anybody left to protect me. Not that I need it, I lied to myself. I ran towards the window facing the city and saw that the boys left already.

Carter doesn't know but I've taken first period out of my schedule to work out extra hard. Improvements are...not showing up.

Do I have to eat healthy as well? Oh well. I'm never giving up ice cream, nice vanilla ice cream. God, I want some now.

The only sound was me running to the bathroom. So I have two hours before I have to go to school, sounds perfect. With that I quickly took a shower and put on my workout clothes.
