Another Day; Another Beginning

Well Sh*t -Chapter 2-

Today being the first day back everyone is super loud and super exited.
I'm walking with Chase to lunch, "I'm pretty sure there has already been three break ups and at least two scandles."
"Really?" I roll my eyes, of course there has been, it's high school.
"By the way I'm taking Cassie to school tomorrow."
He visible and verbally groans if that's possible, "Why? I thought you loved me?"
"I do, I love Cassie too and your house is like five blocks away, you will live."
"Will I?"
I playfull shove him, "You better."
We get to the cafeteria and the smell of BO and nasty school food makes me wrinkle my nose.
I get my food and me and Chase sit at out table. October is already there and when she sees me she jumps up, I barely put my tray down in time to catch her.
"Amber!" She yells in my ear.
Laughing, "That's me dork."
She laughs and squeezes a little tighter before letting me go and sitting back down.
I fist bump Chandler and he smirks. He's always been like a fourth brother to me. Speaking about brothers, "Where are my  brothers?"
As I say this, they start walking toward my table. They already got there food and start eating as soon as they sit down.
I recoil, "Pigs."
James smiles and keeps eating. Jason looks hurt, "Me? How could you say that about me, I thought you cared about me. Such hurtful words little sister."
I smirk, "You and Chase are both such drama queens."
Chase halfway done with his food already scoffs, "I am not, I just don't want to walk."
"You could get a car, like the rest of your classmates?" Jack smirks as Chase glares.
"Nonsense, I have Amber."
"Yeah, um, no get a car idiot."
"Amber!"
October laughs, "Y'all are like siblings, and Chase I have my old Tahoe Truck?"
He slumps, "Yeah maybe."
"I could drive you?" Chandler offers.
Chase brightens, "Yes! That's so great, I could kiss you!"
Chandler smirks and Chase then turns cherry red. We all start laughing. In our group we all know Chase is very much gay but to the school he's straight. His brother doesn't even know. It makes me mad because a brother should know that. I don't know what I would do without my brothers.
Soon enough the bell rings and we go our ways. Cassie, Chase, and I head to history. I hate history. At least the part the teach in school. My dad loved history, and would tell us all random facts about it. It made me laugh most times. We all sit together and sure enough the teacher has to focus us multiple times. Finally were free from history. They go one way and I go to AP Chem. My second favorie class. Also my favorite teacher, Mrs. Kitchens.
As I take a seat in the back, Richard walks in. And because he's an ass, he sits right next to me. This is going to be a long class.
"Good afternoon everyone, welcome back."
After the introductions she goes starts to go over what were going to do this year, I start to drone it out. Sooner or later she moves on to partners and then she drops, "I hope you like your who your sitting next to because that's your partner for the year,"
I look at Richard and roll my eyes, "Great."
"Ouch." He looks actually hurt.
"Drama Queens run in the family. Got it."
Needless to say he glares at me the rest of the period. But I mean that was worth it. After an hour long period, we are allowed to leave. I get up and walk out the door. I take three steps until Richard falls into step with me.
"Are you following me?"
"Yes."
I look at him like he's crazy. "Why?"
"We have class together."
I roll my eyes. Great. More classes with the egotistical jerk. Wait. Ego. Dammit.
I look at him out of the corner of my eye. He has enough ego for four guys so that might work.
I sigh through my nose as I walk into my class. Chase is already in class and he playfully glares at me. His fake glare turns real and he frown as Richard follows me in. I roll my eyes they really don't get along. I sit next to him.
He turns and glares at me again, "I'm still mad at you."
I sigh. "Would you like to come over after school? I'll make it up to you." I wink at him playfully as he blushes.
I hear Richard laugh next to me. "Wow, who knew Chase could actually get some."
"He probably has bigger balls than you." I fire back.
"By all means we can test it."
He winks at me and I literally gag out loud. "I literally wouldn't sleep with you if my life depends on it."
He glares and Chase fist bumps me.
"Your probably gay anyway." Richard rolls his eyes.
I see Chase stiffen ever so slightly and I clench my fists. What the hell is wrong with some people. I'm about to snap back with something about him being an asshole. But class starts.
We have to read a famous poem or quote then write an essay paper on what it means to you. Really? It's literally the first darn day and there giving an essay out. This is what I get for taking AP classes. At least I have the poem part down. We get the rest of class and tomorrow to research a quote.
I turn to Chase. "I already have one in mind, do you?"
I quickly write something down, 'I cannot stay here while my soul slowly turns black and the world gets brighter each day. I cannot stay here drowning as everyone watches from a yacht. I cannot stay here as rejected gift. I cannot stay here as I see you love someone else and don't even notice my tears. I cannot stay here.'
I continue to write more poems on my paper.
'Just because you miss someone, it doesn't mean you should go back to them. Sometimes you have to just keep missing them until you wake up one morning and realize you don't anymore.'
Chase looks over my shoulder. "Oh you should do that one."
I shrug. "No. It's to sad. And it makes me miss my father."
Chase nods and I can feel Richards eyes on me.
'When the blood in veins returns to the Sea, and the Earth in our bones returns to the ground, perhaps then you will remember that this land does not belong to you. It is you who belong to this land.'

'Let in never be said that I sat when I should have stood, remained silent when I should have spoken. Let it never be said that I did not do my best to honor my self and the Gods. Where my path is overgrown; I will make a way. When I speak it will be words of value. And when I come to the end of my journey, may I never look back and regret.'
"I'm doing this one."
Soon the bell rings and I head out the door. Chase walks with me to my locker and I put my school books away and grab my backpack.
"Can I drive?"
I give him the stink eye? "Is that a real question?"
He sighs. "Worth a try."
I roll my eyes and jump in Widow. We drive to my house. "I'm home!" I yell.
I know Cassie and Chandler will be here shortly with my brothers. My mom comes out of the kitchen in her scrubs. "How was school honey?"
I shrug. Chase answers her. "Same old, same old. Ms. White."
She smiles. "Well I am being called in there was a car wreaking the highway and they need me."
I stiffen slightly, Chase put his hand on the small of my back, my mom continues. "Here's some money if you guys don't want to cook. Have fun don't burn my house down." She smiles and rushes out the door.
My mom is a Nero Surgeon and is really good. She makes a lot of money. She has to to raise six kids.
After a few hours of playing video games and a movie. We all are hunger. I go into the kitchen to make food. Chase follows me. I get out a bowel and some more ingredients. I get a pan out. Chase smiles knowing what I'm making. As the boys and Cassie sit down I start making food. One and a half loafs of bread later everyone has at least two pieces of French toast and milk. I also grabs Oreos for my the pantry. Everyone is in there own conversation. "Someone else has to do the dishes. I made the food."
Everyone laughs and Chandler volunteers.
I look at Cassie, she seams a little off tonight. I look at Chandler and he's already watching me. I sigh through my nose. "Well I'm tired. Cassie?"
She doesn't respond until I tap her shoulder softly. She probably jumps a foot. Everyone quietly watches. She sighs. "I'm fine guys, just overthinking."
She get up and puts her plate away and heads upstairs. Chase follows after me as I head to my room. Our house of huge. We have nine bedrooms upstairs with four of them having there own bathroom and then two more along the way. We also have four bedrooms downstairs with a bathroom. And then we have a personal gym. We also have a hug pool outside with a greenhouse. We have two living rooms. One downstairs and then our family one on the main floor. The downstairs one is like the movie and game room. Again we have a huge house. Jack sleeps downstairs with the girls. The other two boys and me are upstairs. Mom has the master bedroom with the biggest bathroom. Most of my friends know my house pretty well an just kinda fall into a bed and as long as they make it before they leave my mom doesn't really care.
Chase has permission to sleep in my room only for the fact that he's gay. My mom almost died when she found out a boy was sleeping in my room. But a lot of things changed and I mean he's been around forever and then when he came to age he knew he was gay. I had to tell her or she was going to kill me.
I go to my bathroom and change. Chase does so after me. He has his not one, not two, but three drawers in my dresser. That's how often he's here. At this rate I might have to buy him his own dresser too. We both lay down and I lay my head on his chest.
"Good night Chase."
"Good night." And he's already out. I follow soon after.
