'The next morning'

~ Tessa's POV ~

"Hello?"

"Tessa! It's me, could you pick up your brother from school?"

"Of course Nǎinai."

I groaned pushing myself to sit up.

"Okay Tessa I'll send an address."

"Ok bye."

I groaned and took a glance at the time. "Oh shit it's 3pm." I shot up and drive straight home.

* * *

"Oh hey Tess, what's the rush?" Bryce asked as I came in slamming the front door behind me, "Gotta. Pick. Up. My. Brother." I breathed out placing my hands in my knees to steady myself.

He chuckles, "Don't wear yourself out too much, Teddy Bear." He walks into the kitchen so I run back into my room and change quickly.

I put on a yellow crop top and matching sweats.

I speedily drove to the school and parked in the front, 3:25 oh I'm early. I let out a sigh of relief just as the bell signaling the end of the day rang and students poured out.

I saw Trevor and a group of guys come around the corner, he locked eyes with me and I smiled, he immediately came running over.

He opened the passengers seat door and attacked me with a hug and kisses, "Tessa!", "oh my goodness you're heavy." I teased pushing him off. "Oh shut it, and give me kisses!", "Why are you so energetic today." I chuckled, "Honestly I don't know." He shrugged pulling his seat belt over.

I heard the back door open and the guys walking with Trevor entered my car, "Um?" Before I could say more a boy about 6'2, says.

"Woah Trevor who's the hottie." He smirks at me, and I flinch at the thought of him being 19.

"Shut up Ryan, this is my sister Tessa." I wave, "Am I taking you guys to your house?", "Yeah, let's go."

"Introduce yourselves." I said looking at the other boy in the rearview mirror, he snapped his gaze to me and blushed, "I- I'm Jack." I smiled, "Tessa." His face turned even more red by the second.

* * *

"It was nice seeing you Trev, but I got to get back to Tayler."

"No! Stay with us!" He pouts, "But, I have to-", "pweasseeee.", "What with the begging you want money or something?"

"Gee you think so low if me." Trevor said with a hurt voice, "I'm kidding, fine I'll stay, but only for a bit." I could see Jack blush, and Ryan smirk.

"Geez these kids and their hormones."

I mumbled locking the door to my car.

When we came in I greeted my grandma, she hugged me tightly and I did the same, we went to Trevor's room which I had never seen before and I sat on his bed, he turned the LED lights onto blue and I laid back.

I heard the boys kick their shoes off and Ryan sat next to me on the bed studying me intently, while Jack sat in a beanbag chair and Trevor sat at his desk.

"So what were you guys going to do." I asked the three boys sitting in front of me. "Well we were gonna play COD but I guess we can play a game where we just ask each other questions." Trevor suggested.

"Sure I'm down." I said sitting back up, Ryan smirked, "I'll go first," I said scrunching my face with disgust, "How old are you guys?"

Jack said, "E-eighteen.", Ryan's smile deflates, "Twenty one." I coughed trying not to laugh...

"HAHHAHAHAHHAA." I seethed out, so much for not laughing. I couldn't stop laughing, then Trevor gave me a look, "Oh you're serious?" Trevor nods, "They can do that!?" Ryan rolls his eyes, "Apparently."

"That's just sad, you're my age and I have already graduated college." Ryan smirks, "Good to know."

"I can tutor you if you want, maybe you'll actually pass Senior year." I teased, "That's a great idea. I want him graduating with us." Trevor said, Jack just nodded in agreement.

"Sure why not, I'll help him. Any friend of yours is a friend of mine." Jack blushes, what's with the blushing of his? Must be the shy one.

"Alright I'll go." Ryan said breaking the silence, "Do you have a boyfriend?" He asked me, "It's complicated." I said honestly, Trevor raised his brow.

"What happened?" Trev asked, "Long story." I mumbled, he nodded, not wanting to bother me too much.

"Jack why don't you go." I suggested, he blushed, "R-right... Ummm d-do you have social media?" He's the cutest. "Yes I do." I giggled. He nodded, "O-ok."

* * *

"I better get going." It's been an hour and we all had laughs, Ryan occasionally flirted, and Jack loosened up a bit.

He's my favorite, next to my brother.

"Bye Tess!" Trev gave me a hug, "oomph," I heaved out as the big threw himself on me, "Trevor!" He laughed, "Sorry."

"You're such a big baby.", "Hey! That's mean." He pouted, "What's up with him?" I said pointing at Trev but asking the boys, "Never seen him like that before," Jack shrugged.

"Well I got to go guys, thanks for having me.", "Tessa you're welcome anytime, you aren't a burden." Sometimes I feel like one.

I smile, "Thanks, bye guys!" I picked up my purse and walked out. "Bye Nǎinai.", "Bye Tessa."

I'm half way down the drive way before my wrist is grabbed, I whip my head around to see Ryan, "Oh hey. You scared the fuck outta me." I sighed of relief, he smiled, a genuine smile.

"Just wanted to say you looked amazing today." I raised a brow, "Why thank you, that's the nicest thing you've said to me."

He smirks, "Don't get used to it cupcake."

And he waltz back inside, "Cupcake?!" I see the out, scrunching my face in question.
