IV-Owen

My life changed in biology. I never thought I would ever say that.

The school day already started off bad without my brother by my side. He sulked home doing school work while I lived through the torture of middle school. Things went...unexpected during the final period of the day though.

Let's start my lunatic tale off here:

"Come on! I dare you to drink it," Kyle Weaslworth snorted while shoving a highly toxic chemical in my face.

I just stared duly ahead and said, "we're talking about photosynthesis, Kyle. Put that down."

"Oh come on," he sniggered while shoving the beaker in my face. "Drink it, ya little squirt."

"Quit it!" I snapped. Kyle sat back in his chair laughing.

I rolled my eyes looking at the clock on the wall. Fifteen minutes, Owen. You can do it. Just hang in there.

"Alright class," Mrs. Haymore said clapping her hands together. The students chattering muted as she said, "now with your partner pour the green liquid into your beaker of water. This will create a sugar compound that is alike to what plants create."

Kyle cackled next to me as he "accidentally" spilled some on me.

"Haha! Sorry there little buddy!"

I groaned as I quickly wiped my pant leg.

"Leave me alone, Kyle," I moaned. He rolled his snot colored eyes and said,"geez kid, lighten up?"

"Lighten up?" I growled. "I'll light your face up," I then mumbled.

Suddenly the burner on our desk bursted into a flame.

Kyle and I yelped as I quickly turned off the burner.

"Owen! We are not using the burners," the teacher scolded me. I nodded and turned to Kyle.

"Why'd you turn the burner on! You could have lit this place up!"

Kyle ran his fingers through his shuffled red hair and said, "I didn't turn it on dude! I swear."

Somehow, part of me believed him. Then how-.

I shook my head, getting my
mind in the right place.

While I poured the compound into
a jar of water, Kyle went back
to bugging me. Really, I thought.
Casually I ignored him.
How long is he going to be super
irritating? Only ten more minutes.
Nice, deep breathes, I told myself.
Good job. Your almost done.

Yours truly did failed at keeping his top on. It was
only a matter of time.
Unexpected things happen then.

"What are you doing here?" Orion groaned as Will walked into the flats kitchen.

Will sighed and threw his bag on the table saying, "Rose asked me to watch you when I get home from school. So here I am! Nanny Will is here to save the day!"

Orion rolled his eyes as he walked to our fridge and took out a soda. Rose always allowed him to take whatever food he wanted. Sure he doesn't take much, but he still takes.

Orion went back to his homework when Will leaned against the counter top and said, "so why'd suspended again?"

"Why do you care?" Orion growled.

Will shrugged. "Just trying to breaking the silence."

"Well I liked the silence."

Will sighed and stepped off, giving my brother some space.
