The Girl With The Converse

Chapter 2

"Pers. Get up." Eros shook me awake.

"What?"

"I ordered some pizza, want some?"
I nodded and got up stretching out my arms.I walked towards the door, but Eros stopped me.

"The guys are out there!" He warned me which made me sigh.

"Go get me some pizza." I commanded him.

"Fine, pepperoni, right?"

"Yup. Get me something to drink too. A smoothie, please. Thanks."

He groaned and walked out mumbling something under his breath. I sat down in my beanbag chair and started reading.
Someone knocked on my door after 10 minutes.

"Come in." I called not looking up from my book.

"Hey." A familiar voice said, that wasn't Eros.

I peeked over my book and Adam Cours was in my room. Crap!

"Hey." I said trying to hide my face.

"What's your name?" He asked me.

"Umm, Stephanie." I said thinking of a name.

"That's a nice name. I'm Adam."

"Ok, now can you leave please?"

"Hey, that's the same book Persephone was reading."

"Just leave. Now!" I demanded him.

"Ok." He backed out of the room without closing the door.

I crept to the door closing it so he couldn't look in. I collapsed onto my beanbag chair as another person knocked on my door.

"Who is it?" I asked being extra careful.

"Eros."

"Ok, come in."

He walked in, empty handed.

"Where's my food?" I panicked.

"Mom's home and she said you can't eat in your room."

"Crap. Are you guys back in you room?"

"No, we just started eating."
I sighed. I wanted my pizza.

"Fine, I'll just make sure they can't see my face. Go tell mom to call me Stephanie."

He walked out as I paced the floor.
First I pulled on a sweater pulling up the hood. I then took off my glasses and put in contacts. I then put on my sunglasses. I walked out of my room into the war zone.

I smiled at the guys as I say down at the table.

"Stephanie? Can I talk you for a bit?" My mom asked.

"Yup." I got up and followed my mom down the hall.

"What is up with this?" She asked pointing at my disguise.

"Well, I don't want people to know Eros is my brother."

"Seriously? He isn't that bad." My mom said.

"Wow, no I don't want people to like me cause my brother is the captain of the football team like at the last school."

"Ok, but don't take it too far. Eros really loves you and wants people to know who his sister is." She smiled at me which I nodded my was in response. I never thought about it that way.

We walked back to the table and I dug into my pizza. I drank my strawberry banana smoothie.

"So, Stephanie. What school do you go to?" Adam asked. I'm gonna kill that kid.
