>Isaac's POV<
"Run three laps before you leave, I'll see you wimps tomorrow in class!" The coach yells as I walk up to my best friend Easton and pat him on the shoulder. "Easton, let's go! We've got to lead the pack so they don't slack off, " I say starting to jog.
"Yeah man, let's get this show on the road so we can get out of here," Easton yells, a little too excited for the practice we just had. "Let's go boys!!"
"Man, do you ever get tired or do you just have multiple battery packs or something" I somehow manage to say through my laughter.
After the three laps, we all meet up back at the dugout for a little powwow before everyone leaves. Taking charge of the meeting, I stand up on a bleacher in the dugout. "Okay everyone, listen up! We all know Easton's birthday is coming up," I shout getting everyone's attention. When they hear about Easton's birthday, they all start jumping up and down chanting, "party, party" looking towards Easton as he jumps up on the bleacher with me.
"Boys, we are going to have the party of the year. We all know the one rule when it comes to my parties," Easton smirks, "if you don't get drunk and get smashed, you don't get invited back. Nor do you get to be chosen to be a part of our brotherhood. Now go home," Easton finally finishes.
"Hey Isaac, you coming over for dinner tonight?" Easton says as he jumps off the top of the bleacher.
"Yeah man, but I gotta go home before I do. I need to take care of some things beforehand." Shoving my glove into my bag and hanging my bat in the locker room, I'm finally able to go home.
"When you get there we need to talk about the brotherhood. With you being my VP now since the accident happened, we got to talk about things." Easton states a little to seriously.
"Yeah man, I got you I'll see ya then okay."
When I get home, I notice that my mom's car is in the driveway. I guess she got to come home early today...I walk into the house and immediately hear noises coming from the kitchen.
"Hey Mom, I'm home!"
"Hey Isaac, how was school sweetheart!" my mom says as she comes over and kisses me on the forehead.
"It was alright.Why are you home so early? Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, just not feeling well so the boss said I could go home for the day. Are you going to the Taylor's tonight?"
I watch as my mom heads to the living room passing the big mess that has somehow made its way into our home overnight.
"Yeah I was going to and I was going to just stay there tonight, but if you need me to stay here I can,"
"No it's fine I'll just stay home like I always do and clean this whole damn house by myself," she snaps at me.
"I'll clean up before I leave. I'm sorry that there is a mess."
Going back into the kitchen, I start to clean up the mess. After thirty minutes, I finally get the kitchen done and move to clean the living room, picking up beer cans, empty glasses, and trash that she has discarded onto the floor.
After what feels like hours of cleaning, I am finally done and I tell my mom that I'm heading to my room to study, seeing that I still have an hour before I have to leave to go to the Taylor's. Deciding I'm not going to study, I grab my computer to try out the new website that everyone is talking about, and to get my mind off my mom. She's not really all that bad but lately she's been drinking more and more. Everyday after I come home, there is a mess waiting for me to clean. I hate that I have all the pressure put on me but I have to do what I have to do.
After creating an account, I find myself talking to people left and right, not finding anyone that is even slightly interesting or that lights a spark in me. "Man, all these people are so boring," I say out loud to my empty bedroom. Finally after chatting with a few people, I find someone who seems somewhat decent enough to actually talk to. As we get going, she sends me message asking for my name. Not really wanting to let these people know who I actually am and to just be on the safe side, I decide to fake my name.
As I sit here trying to think of a name to use, the girl sends another message to me.. guess she got antsy.
Jockynerd101- You still there? 3The4Man5- Um yea I had to do something, my name is Jason Moore, what's your name?
I feel bad for lying, but I don't need someone ruining my reputation, and making people think I'm nice and sweet or some shit like that. Jockynerd101- My name is Payson Taylor
Payson...
*Ding Ding*
Easton- hey I'm here. let's go man my mom will kill us if we are late for dinner" Me- alright I'm coming give me a second. Payson, what are you doing on this site... *honk honk*
Grabbing my backpack and overnight bag, I run outside to see Easton sitting in his truck signaling for me to hurry up. Getting in, I slam the door and throw my stuff in the back.
"Alright I'm here, what do we need to discuss?" I say turning my head to Easton.
"Your job as my Vice President is to keep every guy away from my sister at the party if she decides to attend. If I find out that some guys are hitting on her and you aren't doing your job, you're cut from the brotherhood."
"Woah man, are you serious? Why do I have to do it? Why does it matter if people hit on her? She's a girl, They are fair game." I say trying to get out of this ridiculous task.
"She doesn't need guys to distract her. You may be my best friend but you don't deserve her, and I'm not going to allow her to get hurt by someone with your reputation." Easton says as he pulls into their driveway
ouch, I mean I don't like her anyways but that stings a little..
"Why would I fall in love with her? She's nothing but a spoiled little brat. No offense, but she's a child," I state while grabbing my stuff.
"Just watch it man," he gives me one last glare before putting the truck in park. As we get out of the truck, Easton throws his keys to their houseman and informs him that he needs to park it and that I'm staying over.
*beep beep*
Jockynerd101- Jason are you still there This is gonna be a horrible night.
