Rich Boy Problems

Chapter 1 All I Wanted Was a Normal Day.

Buzz. Buzz. That's how I wake up in the morning. My phone is always on vibrate so it doesn't accidentally go off in school, and so I don't have to deal with it going off, if I forget.

I had that happen once. It was on high and my science class was dead silent, then it went off. People across the room heard it, but the teacher didn't. Kind of weird huh? Then again, I'm a pretty good kid, so he might have just ignored it.

I wake up kind of excited, I'm thirteen my birthday is in a few days. I have blue eyes, long brown hair, and braces. I have a twin brother, Jake, and two older brothers Cole and Ashton. They both have blonde hair except me, and Jake, we have brunette hair, just like my parents.

One more thing we have money, and lots of it. One of wealthier families... in the country... Now people know we have money, Jake and I have bodyguards, his is Adam, and mine is Jaxson. Plus we go to a public school, but it's mainly wealthier families that send their kids.

Anyway somewhere around twenty minutes later I drag myself out of bed. I get dressed and go get breakfast. My twin brother Jake comes in, looking tired. We look really similar you can tell we're fraternal twins.

"What's for breakfast?" Jake asks walking in dropping his bag on the floor.

"Toast." I tell him.

"Hurry up you two, or you'll miss the bus. Where's Cole?" My older brother Ashton asks. "Jess, a coat might be a good idea."

"Right here." Cole says.

"You three need to catch the bus, Cole, you get to watch for it."

"Why can't you drive us?" I whine.

"I always have to watch for it." Cole complains.

"Because mom and dad want you to ride the bus while they're gone. Jake did you take your medicine this morning?" Both of my parents are on business trips, and they always leave Ashton in charge. Well I guess he is the oldest.

"Yes mother." Jake says sarcastically.

"You just made that up didn't you?" I ask him.

"No." He says, directing that comment towards me.

"So you're picking up Ivy." I state.

Ivy is my best friend. Her and my brother are dating. Some people don't like it, and think it's weird considering he's a sophomore and she's an eighth grader. She is fourteen though, and he's sixteen, it's only a two-year difference. Next year she'll be a freshman and he'll be a junior, it's honestly that big of a difference.

"That's for me to know and for you not to find out. And look there's the bus. Good bye." He says looking out the window.

"You know that I can ask her when I get to school right?"

"There's the bus, I said out." He says.

"Rude." I say walking out.

We get to school around eight, which means as usual we were on the bus for an hour. We get told to put our stuff in our lockers then go straight to the auditorium, which is a little odd since we normally just sit in the cafeteria. No one is in the cafeteria at all. No one in the halls either. I guess I forgot that the sixth graders are gone today, but there's usually someone wandering around the halls.

I go into the auditorium and see Ivy. I walk over to her, and sit down. "Hey did my brother pick you up today?" I ask her.

"Yeah. Why?" she asks.

"Because he's a liar." She laughs at this. Soon our other friend, Lucille, gets here, and we talk.

Mrs. Clark comes up front. "Today we're going to do thing a little different. We're going-"

"Thank you Mrs. Clark." A deep voice says cutting Mrs. Clark off. We all turn to see who said it. A man wearing a ski mask with a gun walks in, followed by others, who spread throughout the auditorium. And all I wanted was a normal day.
