The Torturous Life of a High Schooler

Chapter 3

*Flashback to 7th grade*

*Nevaeh's POV*

(Riley-Anthony, Nevaeh-Nathalie, Ansel-Ben)

I was walking out of the school building when I suddenly got pulled behind a tree. Riley, or should I say Anthony which was his fake name, scared the living poop out of me! "What do you want, Ri? You scared me!" I whisper-yelled. "To talk to my baby sister, duh." He answered. "I'm only 12 minutes younger than you and I get that stupid, but can't it wait till we get home?" I whined. "No" he mocked my tone. "Then what the fudge is so urgent?!" "Ben doesn't know about you and me." "You mean, Ansel. And I thought uncle Zayn told him!" "Well clearly he didn't because, Ansel, still doesn't know we are Nevaeh and Riley. He knows who the others fake names and selves are but not us." He said like it was the most obvious thing ever. "You're really annoying you know that?" I said annoyed. "Yep! That's what siblings are for!" He gave me a cheesy grin.

*Ansel's POV*

I was walking behind Nathalie when Anthony pulled her aside. I'm so jealous of Anthony, he likes Nathalie and I'm pretty sure she feels the same. "Ansel doesn't know about you and me." Anthony said. What is he talking about? How does he know about my real name being Ansel?"-told him!" Nathalie said. I don't get why Nathalie is keeping this from me, we are really good friends. Well, to her we're friends and i want to be more than that, but now i know that will never happen as long as she and Anthony are together. i got caught up in my thoughts and didnt realize they were walking over to me. "Hey, Nat?" What? Why am I talking, shut up me! 'Uh, yeah Ben?' she replied. "Do, um, you guys wanna come with me to my Dad's office today?" I asked, I hope they say yes and by they I mean Nathalie. "Uh. Yeah, sure!" Anthony responded. "You alright with it Ne-Nathalie?" She was staring at me. "What? Oh, yep!" She responded, looking flustered. "Ok! Let me call my uncle and tell him, cause he's picking me up." "Ha, ou-my uncle is picking us up too. Im gonna call him really quick!" Oh my God! She said yes, im so happy. I know its she and Anthony but at least its a start, hopefully she responds the same way to a date.

*Nevaeh's POV*

"Ha, ou-my uncle is picking us up too. Im gonna call him really quick!" I said. Spider-Man! I almost said our! I knew Uncle Lou (A/N lol that rhymes) was picking us, Percy , Ansel, and the Tomlinson children up today. I decided I'd play a prank on Ansel, I will make him think that I don't know my dad and uncles and act all surprised and stuff and then tell him. I dialed my favorite uncle's number and waited for him to pick up. "Hey love, I'm almost there." He said. "Oh, uh hey Uncle Tom!" I used his code name. "I was wondering if Anthony and I could go home with a friend?" "Who?" "Ben, Ben Hodge."  "Nev, why are you asking? Im picking up you and your brothers, Ansel, Liz, and Zek." He stated annoyed. "I know, but he doesnt know that we are Nevaeh and Riley. I'm just gonna play a little prank and make him think I havent met you guys and act all clueless about all of it, then bam!" I whispered into my phone. "Okay, just dont take it too far." "Ugh! Okay, love you, bye."I hung up. "What did he say?" Ansel asked. "Yep, we can go!" "Alright! Mine said the same thing." While we waited for Uncle Louis' car to pull up, I texted dad, the rest of my uncles, and my cousins. "There's my uncle's car, c'mon guys!" Ansel said. I REALLY hope this works.                                                             ~~~~          

*At the studio*                                                                                                                            

The car ride went well. I only slipped into my British accent once and Uncle Louis almost called me Nevaeh, but caught himself. We walked in and I saw dad and my uncles standing there. I had to resist the urge to run up and hug dad. They greeted Ansel and he "introduced" us to them and them to us. "I know Ansel."I said when he was finished. "Well duh. You're a directioner and they are One Direction."  He said. "No, Ansel. I like personally know them." He still didn't look convinced. "You know you cousins Nevaeh and Riley?" Dad questioned. "Yeah...." Ansel trailed off. "That's us!" Riley yelled. We burst out laughing, but Ansel stood there, still confused. "No you're not."  "Haha! Yeah we are, Uncle Haz show him the pic of you and me over the weekend." "Alright love!" he responded. He handed Ansel the phone showing the picture. "That looks nothing like you, Nat!" He sassed. "Yeah, I know. I wear a disguise at school and stuff because I'm the most famous of all of us and I'd be recognized really easily." I sassed back.  "Surrrrrreee, then to prove it go take off your disguise and show me." He said, still being a stubborn ass. "Ok, I will!" I yelled, getting really frustrated with him.

I walked over to our lounge type thing and got Liz and Lux to help me look like me again. The three of us walked to the dressing room and closed the door.

"What's up Nev?" "Ansel, the ass doesnt believe I'm Nevaeh and I told him I use a disguise and he said to prove it, I had to take the disguise off." "Ok hun, sit down so I can watch the amazing make-up I did get washed down the drain." Liz sighed. Liz washed my make-up off while Lux took out my brown, clip-in highlights. Liz is really good at make-up art and stuff and Lux is really good at fashion and hair. When all the make-up was off my face, it was crazy, I looked like two different people! Lux picked out my favorite outfit, which consisted of a white crop-top with a British flag on it and a pair of denim shorts with lace on the side, with black flip-flops. I put it on and sat back down so Liz could re-make my face. She did a natural look with just concealer, mascara, black eye-liner with a small wing, very little medium brown eye shadow in the creases with a light pink on the rest of the eye, and pink tinted lip balm. I look like myself again, not like Nathalie Stevenson anymore. They got changed into more comfortable clothes and we walked out of the dressing room and into the studio room with our parents and cousins/siblings.

I stood next to dad. "Believe me now, Ansel?" I asked with a hint of attitude in my voice. He started blushing. The rest of them started cracking up. "Uh, yeah. Sorry." "It's all good babe." Oh flaming hot Cheetos! Why did I say babe?! "I-I mean dude." Ugh! I have had a huge crush on Ansel for 3 years and I know he likes me back, so that makes it even more embarrass. We just stared at each other and I barely heard the others talking. Zek and Lux, of course the cutest, most annoying, and craziest couple, had to mess it up by saying,

"Just kiss already we know you want to!" Lux started making kissy noises and Zek was "ooh"-ing. "Ha, we all know my father wont allow that." i said, sadness hinted in my voice. "Princess, your in 7th grade, not 5th, and I know Ansel is a good kid. It's alright by me baby girl." Dad whispered in my ear, loud enough for Riley and Percy to hear. They pulled us to the other side of the room. "Well maybe it's fine by YOU, Dad but not by me!" Riley whisper-yelled back. "Me either!" Percy did the same. "Well, too bad, it's not your say it's the father's because like he is the adult and helped create us. I'll allow you to interrogate and all that crap, k? K." I said. They seem all cool and not caring about  this kind of stuff, but they are actually really overprotective. I walked back over to Ansel and looked at him. He stepped forward and gently put his lips on mine. When we pulled away, everyone was "ooh"-ing and stuff except Riley and Percy, well they're gonna have to deal with it! "I love you Neveah." He whispered against my lips. "I love you too!' I responded.
