I had known the Kiszka's for a few years now. I was close to all of them, but I was probably closest to Sam. We met in English in eighth grade. We have been close friends ever since. I spent my weekends at the Kiszka household. Early on I had a fairly large crush on Sam's older brother Josh. I had idolized him and would follow him around. It was quite pathetic if I do say so myself.
In junior year Josh and I would hook up every now and then. It was nice but it always ended in heartbreak for me. I didn't have any hard feelings with him. I just wanted a guy who would treat me right. I just wanted to enjoy the rest of my Junior year without the stress of Josh or pathetic crushes.
Then April came along. Summer was right around the corner. I was single and happy. It was Saturday night and I was at the Kiszka house. Sam and I were laughing like crazy as the shitty rom-com played on the TV. We had seen this one at least a hundred times. We were having fun until Jake burst in from their bonus room yelling at us. "Could you guys be any more obnoxious!" he screeched at us. I went quiet. A little scared.
Jake had always been kind of rude to me. Sometimes he was sweet as could be, but he could be very cruel especially when Josh was around. I didn't think anything of it. After all, it was probably just a twin thing or a brother thing. I don't know. The rude behavior started when he found out I liked Josh. He knew about Josh's reputation with girls.
Sam, being the snarky little hoe he is, wasn't going to deal with Jake's attitude. "Yes, Actually we can be more obnoxious, right Y/N?" Sam said full of himself. I choked up and got clammy as Jake looked to me clearly annoyed and pissed off. "um yeah.... sure Sam" I say quietly making eye contact with Jake. He rolled his eyes and looked back to Sam. I don't know why but that turned me on. Sam began to make weird noises and faces as he fell off the couch clutching his chest pretending to die. He must have gotten this from Josh because I swear I had seen him do this exact scene before. "How are you friends with him?" Jake said with a sarcastic chuckle. "Seriously asshole, you and y/n better keep it down" and with that he was gone. "I like Jake," I said quietly to Sam.
"WHAT?" he exclaimed. "ssshhhhh you heard me," I say in a loud whisper. "But I thought you liked Josh," he said joining into the loud whispering. "I DID, but I haven't for a while now" I emphasized "DID" a lot. "ooooooohh I see you y/n I see you" he said chuckling. I punched his shoulder as we heard footsteps coming down the stairs. It was just Josh. "Y/n likes Jak--" Sam said loudly. I covered his mouth. He screamed it so loud I was afraid Jake might have heard.
"Oh I see you've switched twins y/n," Josh said snarkily. "yeah I didn't have any luck the first time," I say as I roll my eyes. "Yeah haha, whatever y/n," he said as he fake laughed. "why the hell did you tell Josh," I say angrily at Sam. "He is good at getting girls, so maybe he could help you get Jake," he said trying to seem innocent. "You want me... to help you get... my twin brother?" He said laughing lightly from the state of pure shock he was in. "well it wasn't my plan" I say as I glance at Sam. "well would you?" he said his puppy dog eyes filled with hope. "No," He said with a completely straight face. Sam's face dropped so low he looked like a child who found out Santa wasn't real (even though he is kids I promise). "I'm actually going to go tell jake now," he said as he began to walk towards the stairs. Sam got on his knees. "NO NO NO JoSH pLEASE DONT. IM A DUMBASS anD Y/N SHOULDN't havE TO PAY FOR my idiOCraCY" he was almost crying. I was just silent and trembling. I was so scared because I didn't want Jake to find out. I didn't know what to do. After about 5 minutes of Sam trying to convince Josh to keep my secret, Josh began to laugh hysterically. "I'm just playing, of course, I'll help little y/n get her first real boyfriend. I just had to see Sam suffer first.
_ 2 hours later (after plan making)_
I knocked on Jakes door. "COME IN" he yelled from inside. "Hey, Jake?" I said as I slowly walked into his room. "oH- y/n" he said as he fixed his shirt and hair. I giggled. "What's up?" he said genuinely interested in what I had to say. "Umm... Jake... I was wondering" I trailed off "mmhhmm," he said motioning for me to continue. "Could you teach me guitar?"
