Waking up to the buzzing sound of my alarm, I sleepily slap it to turn the damn thing off. Of course I miss it a few times before actually hitting it, seeing I'm half asleep.
I get out of my bed slowly. I hate having to put my alarm on at fricken 6 am.
I go into my closet and pick out a denim button down shirt tgat goes to my elbows in arms length and ties at the front just above my belly button, and a cream coloured jeans with black boots that don't go past my ankles.
I go to the bathroom and tie my hair in a ponytail and then curl the ends, leaving a bit of hair just in front of my ears.
Taking in my appearance, I decide on applying concealer and a bit of foundation along with eyeliner to line my water line and mascara. I then apply a light pinkish colour lipstick.
I take in my final look and I don't look half bad. I leave my room and go straight to the kitchen. Austin and Livia are already at the table eating toast and vegemite. Instead I grab out my box of coco pops and pour it in a bowl along with milk. I start eating at the counter when Austin cones over with sn emtpy plate in his hans and places it in the sink.
"Sorry about yesterday. I didn't expect you to be home so early and-" He starts.
"Did you eveb expect me home home at all? Or even our parents?" I cut him off.
"Of course I did, just not that soon. Anyway I am really sorry you had to see that." He continues.
I roll my eyes and reply "don't worry. Anyway we have to go in 5 minutes. Go brush you teeth and hair." Now done with my coco pops I start stacking the dish washer.
"You alright Liv? you are very quiet today." I say while stacking the last dish.
"Yeah. I'm fine. Just tired, I guess." She shrugs.
Livia doesn't just shrug. My sisterly instincts kick in as I walk over to her. I can sense something is up with her.
"Come on you can tell me. Completely confidential, I promise." I say sitting next to her.
"It's this kid at school-" Oh here we go. "-he's been calling me names, no I'm not repeating them, but he had been calling me names because he found out who I like and because he knows who my stepbrother is." She takes a breath.
"And why would this guy be calling you names because of who you like?" I ask, concearn clear as daylight.
"Because he is not a popular kid, like me and he is a bit of a nerd and no one really likes him, not even as a friend." Her head slumps as she looks at the floor.
"And what about the Austin being your stepbrother thing?" I ask.
"What about me being your stepbrother?" Austin's voice says from the stairs.
"Nothing. We have to go as soon as I brush mg teeth. I'll be two secs" I say and stand up. "I want answers this arvo, alright." I whisper to Liv and she nods.
I quickly brush my teeth and then head down stairs and grab my keys from the hook near the door.

We arrive at school and Austin heads off simewhere while I head towards my locker.
Isabelle is already at her locker, 2 lockers down from mine.
She slams her locker door shut and ger eyebrows are furrowed in anger.
"What's wrong, Iz?" I ask as I open my locker.
"Nothing, my dad's just being paranoid." She trys to dismiss the conversation.
"Isabelle?" I push.
"What?" She shrugs. "It's true. He is just being a paranoid dad. That's getting on my last nerve." She finally spits out.
"Oh." I say and close my locker.
"Yeah. No biggy. I can handle it. Anyway, see you later, got to go to class." She says with a smile and walks off. I sigh and head the opposite to geography.
Walking down the hall I bump into someone, making me drop my books.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going." A somewhat familiar voice says as I pick up my books.
"It's fine. I'm as much to blame as you." I stand up and I'm dumbfounded by who I see in front of me.
