Chapter 2

**

"Okay sure see you some other time." I say to Cathy and Monica who escorted me home. We waved at each other as they reached my porch. It might be last day of school but not for us. We'll definitely meet any time we want. They are my closest friends and we are more like musketeers in school.

Opening the front door of my house made me seize at my feet. Holy shit!

The view of my siblings and little cousins jumping on the couch with scream from everyone of them was so unpleasing. Is this how their first day here is really gonna be like? Well then, this is not a pleasant welcome.

I didn't even have the guts to step in, so I was still standing at the door when someone bumped into me from behind making me jump up in fear.

"Heyy! Watch it!" Max says with a box in his hands.

"Sorry." I say staring at his eyes I've missed staring a lot. He looked even more taller and handsome than before.

"Some people never change. Always clumsy!" He mutters as he moved further inside the house. I know he is referring to me but I end it with an eye roll and look back at him again.

"Are you going to keep staring at me or you're gonna help me carry some boxes from the trunk?"

"Oh." Was all I could say as I went over to the trunk and bought out a box which says.. "Jack's stuffs" on the top. Alright I think this belongs to Jack. I'll go keep it in Ricky's room cause they will both share same room while Addison pair room with Riley so as the twins. And as for Max he has his own room which is across mine.

With the heavy box in my hands I walked inside the house. Why this many stuff it's not like they're staying forever. It's just a one month and two weeks holiday.

"Look who's here!"

"Kira!!!" Karen and Lauren called out my name as they rush to me. Awn I miss these cute little fellas.

"Hi. How are you?" I ask, dropping the box which I was holding near me so I can bend to their level. But before they even get the chance to speak Ricky poked in with his annoyed voice.

"Kira. Can you tell Riley to stop hitting me at my back head? She's annoying." He complained.

"If only you start using your brains." Riley says from the other side as she fold her hands across her chest.

"Hey! I'm the senior here remember?"

"Duh, does it look like I care. You started it. You called me a peacock with a big head." She says throwing her hands on the air.

"That's because it's the truth." He snap back.

"Oh, No. That's not true, you're the one with the dumb'est head." She defends before staring at me, "See that Kira. I have to punch his head over and over again" she marches towards him but I stop them both before they could start a fight.

"Relax guys. What happened?" I really don't want to know but at least I just have to be concerned.

"Well, your brother here called me a peacock with a big head."

"That's because it's the true." He said, again.

"No it's not." She retort.

"Of course it is." Jack laughed from behind now siding Ricky. This not good at all.

"Of course he's lying." Addison joined Riley from behind. "Maybe we both could hit you two ugly heads with a mop stick." She beams.

"What? No way. That would never happen."

"Oh shut up Jack." Riley spat.

"You keep quiet." He replied.

"She better not." Addison say.

"Alright guys enough of the bickering please." I stopped them standing between the two groups. I'm enjoying the bickering though, but I can't just watch them fight. "Ricky say I'm sorry to Riley." I demand, hoping to settle this battle between them. But Ricky started it first right?

"What? No way. She is meant to apologize not me."

"Of course not sily brat." Riley push.

"You see that!?" Ricky complains, again.

Riley and Addison both poke their tongues at them.

"You guys aren't getting away with that."

"Oh are we?" They both walked forward to the boys and marched their feet making them scream raising their legs up. Oops.

"Now we are going away with that." Addison top five with Riley as they both turned to leave.

"You saw that and did nothing!" Jack said kicking the box next to me.

"What was I suppose to do?" I throw my hands on the air.

"You should have punished them." Ricky suggests.

"Or even let us beat hell out of 'em." Jack says, kicking the box again. Why is he doing that?

"Stop kicking the box." I say.

"Why should I?" He kicked the box again only to realise it was his box. "Oh my box." He bend to pick the box.

"Yea your box. Boxer." I say. He's so dumb.

"Come on Ricky I got something to show you here." He says to Ricky as he picks the heavy box and they both rush to their room. Ah! Finally. I breath out. I was about to turn on my heels when a creak sound filed the room. My head jolt to Karen who was now standing beside the broken vase which was first place on the table. She broke that!

"Sorry.." She smiles, innocently.

I frowned at once. "Don't worry I'll clean it." I tell her while she runs upstairs.

Ensuring the broken piece of glass are cleaned from the floor and has been safely discharged in the bin I dust my hands and wonder what's next.

Now I guess I'll just go to my room. I turned on my heels and head for the stairs.

6'30

The sound of flying objects in the air disturbed my ears making me shuffle on my bed in disgrim. But that didn't stop anything as more noise of screams, shouts, loud thuds was disturbing my sleep. I used the pilow to cover my ears but it seem to even increase.

Screams!

Cracks..

"Ufff.." I seat up from the bed huffing my messing hair from my face. I can't sleep because of these noise! I definitely look like a sleep freak.

Screams!

What's happening downstairs?

I hear the cracks of plate and that was enough to get me up from my heels in annoyance. What are these kids up to now? I wear my flipflop and begin to head for the door to yell who so ever it is for disturbing my beauty sleep.

Opening my room door the noise increased a thousandthfond.

I hear the kids running around. What the hell is wrong with them? It just 6 in the morning.

Just as I was about to move a flying plane toy almost bump into my head but good thing I realise on time so I ducked.

Woah that was close.

Thud!

Scream

Argh! This kids. I rushed downstairs only for me to freeze at my feet as I see the mess around me. This wasn't the same place I knew yesterday. The last time I checked, this place was stunning and neat but this time it was completely different and DIRTY. Every single part is a living hell of dirt– Broken plates, cups and other utensils, even dad and mom picture frame was now on the floor. Cereals are scattered all over the place. The kitchen was in disaster, the couch is in mess. Paints was mixed on the wall and the window's having a crack mark. You can't be serious.

They didn't realise my presence before but as soon as they did they stopped their screaming and chasing like they have been paused. Jack paint firegun fired on me messing with my white sweater I was wearing. White!

"Oh." He says as he realise he must have slipped his hands on the fire button. "Sorry." We that he ran away dropping the paint gun on the floor. And the others followed too. You gat to be kidding me!

Now I've to clean up all this mess and, my white too?

Argh! I bend to pick the cracked toy I was standing on. Now I have to pick every thing and mop everywhere and clean the wall too. Is this what I get being the eldest girl? Max would never help. If I should think he will do some cleaning, then I'm the biggest fool on earth to think that.

And as for mom and dad they left the house as early as 6, because of their morning shift and all that. I wonder how they get to cope with their job leaving the house as early as 6 where as I could be sleeping peacefully. I'd rather do a part time job than risk my morning sleeps.

Ding!

The door bell ring and I know I have to go answer it cause no one would. And hell, who would even come knocking on people's door at this hour? Do I have to remind myself it's just 6'30?

"Hey! I say to Daniel and Zack who smiles back at me with their eyes ransacking my body. I hate this glares it makes me nervous. A little though. Cause I'm use to it.

Zack and Daniel are Max besties here in our town.

"Looks who's here. The stunning sunlight." Daniel says with his rasp voice that scream sexy. My tummy flutter at the outcome of his words but I wasn't ready to give in.

Zack and Daniel are complete players in school. Oh trust when I say there is no girl in that school that doesn't know about them they are the hot players that have all girls at their beck and call. And God knows they have slept with half of the girls in that school.

"Is Max back? Cause I heard he is." Zack says, ignoring Daniel's word. And I'm glad he did. If not I would have definitely fall with the way he is staring at me. He's damn charming. But I can't tell him that.

"Yeah he is. I'll go call him." I smiled and lock the door and turned only to find Max already standing behind me leaning against the TV counter as he stares at me wildly. What?

The way he looks at me alone heat up my cheek as I decide to say something.

"Uh.. Zack and Daniel wants to meet you." I try to sound as normal as I can be.

"I know." He says curtly, with his normal cute voice.

"Okay. I'll just tell them you're here." I said and turned to open the door. I know he is still staring at me and I don't know what made me stop myself from opening the door but my fingers was still on the knob and my body still faced the door but I don't know why I just turned my head to face him only for him to raise his head from my back, back to my face. What is he staring at?

"What are you looking at?" I ask, even though I know he was scanning my body. I just don't know why I asked.

"Nothing just admiring the choice of clothes you sleep with." What? Before I could cross check myself he moved forward and stand near me with my back facing him and his one hand on the wall and the other touched my hand in the door knob. I felt electrified, heat was consuming me as I reasoned the little space between our body. My back was still facing him with my body between him and the door as he opens the door with my small hand still underneath his, leaving me confused and flattered in my own state.

"Hey dudes." they shaked their hands while I was still standing right in front of Max like a nut.

"Come in." He spread the door open for them and they entered scanning the full room.. or rather the mess.

Max closed the door and whispered in my ears, "nice booty short Kira." he smirked, and my heart immediately dropped as I feel him pull from me and went over to his friends.

What the hell. I checked myself and realise I was wearing my black short sweatpant. Now I see why they were staring at me the way they did.

I feel my cheek transformed colours as I immediately ran from the door heading to the stair.

"Woah, this place is a mess." Zack says.

"I know right. You know my siblings are around so the usual happen. But don't worry they got a big sister after all."

He did not just say that. Of course he thinks I'm the only one who is to clean this mess our siblings made. I turned my heels to face him.

"You know you could help too. You're the eldest one, remember?"

He laughed, "You know I would never do the cleaning. Hell, guys like us don't do that, their younger ones do it. Right guys?" Max says and his friends agrees with him nodding their heads as they chuckled. I hate him.

"Or I could come join you if you want." Daniel offers as he throws me a wink. I'll act like I never saw that.

"No thanks." I replied, harshly. They just agreed to my stupid cousin. And God knows Daniel intention in cleaning, he wouldn't clean but play with me the whole time.

"What's this?" Max picks the gun Jack had dropped earlier. Oh no the paint gun.

"No Max-"

Great! Before I could tell him not to fire the gun the yellow paint was already on me, again. On my white sweater again!

"Oops sorry I didn't know that."

With the way he is you could tell he's holding his laugh so was his friends. Why do I deserve this!

"Arrgh!" I groaned in annoyance and turned back on my feet with my hair flipping on the air as I head upstairs stomping my legs like a angry kid. Of course I'm pissed.

"Be careful with those." I heard Dan's voice and I knew what he was talking about. Of course my butt. What a pervert!

"Damn Max your cousin's sexy." He add making me walk even faster to my room.

I really shouldn't have wore this short if I had known.
