School Sucks

Ever since lunch I've been ignoring Seth. Which, had been extremely difficult considering we have EVERY SINGLE MOTHERFUCKING class together!! Ughhh

I would hear girls laughing and boys would look at me smirking wherever I walked. I felt disgusted. Some people looked at me with such hate it almost made me hate myself.

The bell had rang and it was finally time to go home. Fuck. I live with Seth. My ride is with Seth. Damn it!

I walked to the car stomping like a child, which no doubt got me stares but I was used to it. When I reached the car, I practically dove in the backseat. I hated Seth! He was controlling me! And I've learned from the past that being controlled gets you no where.

"Uh.. shotgun?" Rose question awkwardly crawling to the front. Thank god for that girl.

"What music do you-" Seth started but both me and Bailey cut him off.

"Adele."

Is it weird the Adele has become my artist? Like the go-to for whatever moods you feel, and it feels like you aren't along with them anymore? I don't know.. but it felt great to now someone was sharing the same emotions as me.

I sang my heart out in this car ride. I had completely forgot about Seth's stunt at school. Hell! I completely forgot anyone else was in the car!

Then, just my luck, 'Someone Like You' came on. It official! The universe is after me!

This song always reminded me of my past. How people I loved, well though I loved, would do.. horrible things to us and not feel anything about it.

"You know how the time flies,

Only yesterday was the time of our lives.

We were born and raised in a summer haze,

Bound by the surprise of our glory days.

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited

But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.

I had hoped you'd see my face,

And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over" I sang.

The car was silent after the song had finished. Rose quickly wipe the tears off her cheeks trying to hide the pain we both felt under everything. The pain is always there.. and it just gets worse the longer you hold it in.

Seth looked at me with a sympathetic smile, but I know he has a lot of questions. And I would answer them! Just not.. right now.

I went straight to the study room to work on my homework. That's what I get for coming in the middle of the year!

The door opens and the rest of my siblings walk in. Shit. Why does it feel so wrong to call Seth my sibling?! It's almost enough to make me puke.

"Hey guys." I yelled and smiled. Considering this room is pretty big and I was on the opposite side, I wanted to make sure they heard me.

"Hey!" All of them responded. Weirdos. Rose closed the door behind them and they all came up and chose a seat on the couch. It was in one huge circle so all of us were facing each other.

"I still don't get it! What the fuck is X?!" Bailey screamed.

"A letter." I couldn't help but remark. Bailey told his eyes while the other two snickered.

"Look. All you do is go like this." Seth pointed and was drawing all over B's paper. "And done!"

Bailey looks at his work stunned. "Ohhhhhh!" We all chuckled at his reaction and quickly got back to work.

About thirty minutes had passed. We were all fucking miserable and bored.

"I'm boreddd" Bailey whined.

"Bitch, we all are." Rose rolled her eyes.

"Well.. I actually need advice on something." Seth said earning surprised looks from everyone.

"Big brother needs help from young player... I like the sound of that!" Bailey chuckles.

"Ew what the-.. anyways." Seth rolls his eyes. All of us burst into a fit of laughter.

"Okay okay. So what is it?" Rose asks. All eyes are immediately back on Seth.

"Well you see, there's this girl." My heart sank. The last thing I want to do is listen to him talk about some other girl. Especially in front of me!

But he's my brother. So I gotta stay. Plus, I don't need the other two catching on to anything. Even though Rose already- nevermind.

"She beautiful. No- absolutely breathtaking. I don't even think she knows it! And she's hilarious. I mean, of course I don't laugh because.. well.. I'm me. But she is. I really like her. Even though she's a dick."

Everyone pretty much is stunned at the whole thing. But I'm heartbroken.

'She's breathtaking. She's hilarious.' His words ringed through my head like a knife was stabbing my brain. It was stabbing my heart too.

"I think you should forget about her." I yelled blushing after I realized what I just said. Oh shit.

"Why would he do that? He clearly really likes her." Bailey questions.

"Yeah, why the fuck should I forget about her?"

"Guys! Just pretend she never said that. She clearly didn't mean to!" Rose chimes in. Thank god she knows what's happening. Well.. partly.

"I think you should ask her out." Bailey says grinning. "And I would like to meet her."

"You already have." Seth answers quickly.

Great! So Bailey already knows her and probably likes her. This is too much! Keep it together Soph.. keep it together..

"Really? Who is it?"

"Hey Soph, you alright?" Seth turns to me. I expect some kind of grin or smirk, but he looks genuinely concerned.

"Yeah." Was all I said before I packed my stuff and left the room.

So.. I may or may not have been stuffing my face with chocolate bars and binge watching Grey's Anatomy. Don't judge! I'm sad okay?! And Mcsteamy is fucking gorgeous! Forget McDreamy. We can't be friends if that's who you choose.

Unfortunately, Elsa and David wanted a family dinner today so I have to face my problems head on. Hence the chocolate.

I really don't understand Seth. One moment, we're making out, the next? He's drooling all over a girl. Fuck him! You know what, I'm just going to pretend none of that ever happened. Cause clearly, it hasn't to him.

I decide to wear a red dress that stops just above my knees. I curled my hair and put on a gold necklace with gold flats. Damn I'm really spoiled by this family.

I make may way downstairs trying to ignore the butterflies threatening to escape my stomach. I shouldn't be so nervous! This is my family! Forget Seth.

I walk into the dining room. I sit next to Rose, Seth and Bailey across from us, and the parents at the ends.

"Good afternoon kids!" Elsa says cheerfully.

"Good afternoon." We all respond. We all just sit there picking at our food and not making eye contact.

"So I mean this the nicest way possible kids, what the fuck is going on?" David asks bluntly. I like this guy.

"Nothing." Everyone but Bailey of course answers.

"Seth won't tell me who the girl he likes is!" Bailey pouts.

"Seth.. girl.. Seth likes.. girl..Seth-" Elsa stutters trying time get the words out.

"Yes mom. I like a girl."

"Geese you guys are acting like he's gay and just said that!" Rose jokes. We all chuckle lightly but ig was still awkward.

"So-" David is cut off.

"Can we just not talk about it?" Seth asks. He's avoiding eye contact with me and my guess is it's because he doesn't want to make me feel bad. Too late anyways.

"Sure. So we need to tell you all something." Elsa states.

"What's up?" I ask. I haven't really said anything so I mean..

"Well, the business is having some- issues. The drugs have gone missing and we have no earthly idea from where. But when we do find out, there will most likely be a war. So, we can't have you guys going to school. Not yet anyways."

Are you fucking kidding me right now? Now I have to be trapped in the house with him?! Yeah okay, it's not the biggest problem at the moment, but come one universe! A break is needed!

"What?! Ughhhh." Bailey pouts. I'm starting to think he's a child.

"I know. We've already talked to your teachers. You will be joining a video chat to do class." David smiles.

Well I guess it would be better than actually going to school. It's embarrassing! People are always gossiping, especially about me and Rose. It's annoying as hell!

"Well okay." Rose and I both say. Great minds think alike!

"Great."

After dinner, I went upstairs to take a shower. It was very refreshing actually! Today has been a long day. And it was only the first day of school! I won't even be there in person until God knows when.

I just got the sudden urge to swim. Oh! They have the infinity pool outside! Yesssss!

Once I change into my bathing suit, I got I find Rose and ask if she wants to swim with me. I could use a little sibling time.

"Rose?" I calm as I knock on her door. She swings it open with a smile.

"Hey sissy!"

"Hey! So do you want to go swimming with me?" I ask.

"Uh duh! Give me a sec to change." Before I could respond, she shuts the door right in my face. Gotta love Rose!

"Hey, you going swimming?" Bailey walks up to me. His room is down the same hall as Rose's.

"Yup."

"I'm coming." He runs off to his room. This family is something else.

"I'm ready!" Rose comes out of the room in a navy bikini, and I'm wearing a red one. Usually it would be the opposite way around so that's pretty interesting I guess.

"Let's go!" Bailey calms as he runs up to us. We all walk out to the pool and I see the one thing that I didn't want to see. Seth.

"Seth?! What are you doing here?" I ask.

"Uh, I live here." He sarcastically smiles and rolls his eyes.

I came for peace. Just for some goddamn peace!

Rose sets her stuff down and slowly makes her way into the pool. Seth is already in there on his phone texting. Probably the girl he likes.

"Calibunga!" Bailey screams as he does a cannonball in the pool. I just slide in near the edge to get a good look at the sunset. I love California.

"Hey." I feel someone walk up to me and wrap their arm around my waist.

"Hey Seth." We stand there in silence just watching the sunset. I suddenly come to senses and realize, I'm on his chest! Like. His bare chest! And his hand is on my stomach. Why am I freaking out?! I need to forget about him. Already forgotten. Yup. Definitely.

"So about the girl." I was going to cut him off but I wanted to hear what he had so say.

"She amazing. Like, truly."

"Seth. Why the helm are you telling me this?" I turn and face him. Naturally, he wraps his arms around my waist.

"Because I need to let you know who it is."

"I really don't want to know about another girl while I-" I stop my self. What was I gonna say? I don't want to hear about another girl while I like you? Nope. Nah dah.

"Well.. okay then. But for what it's worth, I think you would've liked it know who it is." He looks at me a smirks. I hate the smirk. I mean I love it! But I hate it. I hate how my brother makes me feel.

I look around and see Bailey and Rose have already left the pool. We've only been here like twenty minutes..

I look back to the sky that is slowly being taken over by stars.

"Hey Soph?"

"Yeah?" I ask without turning around.

"I think that you are amazing. Truly amazing. You are beautiful, and funny, and sometimes a dickface. But you are amazing."

But.. that what he said about the girl. I- I'm not?! I'm not the girl right? Am I the girl?!

"Yes." Was all he said. Can he read my thoughts?

I turn around and face him. He just has a smile on. I look at him in the eye and raise an eyebrow.

"Geese Soph! How stubborn can you be?! You are the girl. I fucking like you!" I just stand there with my eyes wide open. I'm so stupid! All this time! I was jealous over myself?! What the hell Soph.

"Seth.. I am your sister." I breathed out breathlessly. He has a way of making me like that.

"I know. But not by blood.."

"Seth.." I can't say anything else. He's an amazing person. But he's my brother. Ugh.

"Soph. You are my sister. My sister that I just happened to end up liking. We don't have to tell anyone it's just.. I like you."

"I like you too, Seth." We stare into eachothers eyes. I get lost in those eyes. They are beautiful. Remind me of chocolate! Wrong time.. wrong time.

Before I knew what was happening, Seth's arms pull me into his chest. My arms automatically move to around his neck. He gives me a smile and then leans in. I close my eyes, and eventually feel his lips join with mine. My hands grab the back of his head to deepen the kiss. It's not long before his hands are on my ass pushing me impossibly closer to him. He bites my lip and I moan. LOUD. He just smiles and take the opportunity to slide his tongue in my mouth. We didn't even put up a fight before his tongue explored mine. I tried to breath but he wouldn't let us stop. I was breathing in his air, and him mine. He grabs my ass a little making me moan again. I take my hand lightly tap his member making him groan.

I love the effect I had on him, mostly because he had the same on me. Before I knew it, I was placed on the side of the pool with my legs wrapped around his waist. We pulled away but only for a couple seconds. We were hungry. I felt his erection, which of course being Seth, he put right up against my folds. I couldn't help but to move a little against him with made us both moan. He lightly put me down on the ground and climbed on top. His hands moved up and down the sides of my body savoring every touch.

I wanted nothing more than for him to be buried deep inside me, but we are at the house. With our family. Oh well. He started kissing down my neck causing me to moan pretty loud. He sucked and lightly bit all over my chest. There would definitely be marks. He eventually came back to my mouth and devoured it once again. We broke apart and were both breathing heavily trying to catch our breath. That was.. and I have to admit, the best make out session of my life!

He smiles at me and stands up. His chest is dripping with water. His lips are swollen which I mentally patted myself in the back for. I probably look like trash right now but that didn't matter. All that mattered, was that I liked Seth. And he liked me.
