“You like her?!”

“Uh...um....well...I...”

“You like her!? As in her! April?!”

“What the hell?! Seriously! What. The. Hell?!”

Staring at my twin as if he’s got two heads and is on hallucinogenic drugs...as I cannot not...and will not believe what I’m hearing!

He sighs, tousling up his blonde hair and giving me an exasperated look “I....I dunno....it’s just...”

“Just what Seth?!...how can you even think of liking her?! She’s evil....e-v-i-l!”

Rolling his eyes he moves away from me “don’t be so dramatic....”

“Me dramatic?!....Oh no......dear twin...I think you’ll find that you are! How can you even like her!? She’s not even you’re type!”

“How do you know she’s not my type?” is his response...

“Uhh...I’m your twin dumbass! Of course I’ll know!” I cross my arms glaring at him...

Sighing again he stands up from the bed and walks towards the door “Look...I don’t know okay....she’s just nice to talk to...”

 I scoff “Nice?...yeah as nice as a poisoned witch that feeds you dead rats...” I snap sarcastically “If you think that’s nice then....pff...well sorry my friend...but you’re deranged....” I shake my head in disbelief as I follow him out my room....

Sensing him roll his eyes again as he’s got his back to me he says “See?...you’re being dramatic again....” I scoff rolling my eyes “Just drop it Lexi.....”

Glaring at the back of his head as I follow him down the corridor, grimacing at the thought of our previous conversation...

Seriously......Seth and April?

April and Seth?!

No way!

No f**cking way!

There’s no way I’m letting my twin get with someone like...like that! She’s poison....literally poison....

And if Seth can’t see that already.......I’m gunna make sure that he sure as hell does!

Grumbling under my breath, I turn to head down the stairs as Seth disappears into the bathroom...

It’s later in the day now....and mostly everything’s calm down.....and even mom’s come back....

Speaking of which....

“Hey hon” My mom smiles at me, wrapping her arms around me in a hug as I enter the kitchen “How’s the arm?” she asks worriedly a frown etching on her face as she pulls my arm down, running her fingers across the bandage Blake wrapped around it....

“I’m fine mom...” I pull my arm away slightly frowning as I hate the fussing.....which has been constant since she arrived back....

Moving away from her, I head into the living room...where surprisingly – not – everyone else is...but thank god that doesn’t mean the Dean family...because I swear...if I see that girls face....I might just do something hurtful....

I’m aggressive! I know...get over it!

“LEXWI!” Tom chirps as I come into the room and he looks up to me beaming....

I smile at the little boy, he’s always been able to make me smile again, no matter how much of a bad mood I’m in...

“Hey Tommy...” I smile ruffling his hair and bend down, scooping him up into my arms as he reached out for me...

Chuckling lightly as he snuggles into my shoulder...I make my way over to one of the sofa’s...and sit down in the middle of Blake and Chris....

Shifting Tom onto my lap into a comfy position and he stays there happily.

Daisy and Charles are even in here too.....there’s a movie playing...but I’m not too sure what it is...but everyone seems to be interested in it.

I look up and glance around at everyone in this room, everyone’s in here....all the younger ones, including Leon...and older one’s......and it’s weirdly quiet as they’ve all got their attention to the TV....

And it’s one of those moments when you wish it could last...because let’s face it....when is it often that I have all my family in one room...and it’s quiet?

Hardly ever...

Never really.....

So to me.....this is special...

I smile lightly, shifting position so that my head is leaning against Blake’s shoulder and move my feet up on Chris’s lap...giving him a innocent smile when he looks at me...

Smirking to myself...Tom sits up on my stomach making a cute little babbling noise grinning, causing me to smile as I hold his hands.....

I love times like this.......but somewhere in the back of mind....it’s telling me something’s missing......

Like something’s been missing for two years now.....

My Father....

~~

“Really?

“Yes Really?!”

“Like seriously!?....OH MY GOSH!.....that’s....that’s...

“Gross!” I scrunch my nose up looking to my two new friends....

They both look at me and blink as if I’m mad...

I shake my head “Why are you even talking about that?.....it’s not something you like to hear while you’re eating” I put for emphasise on the word eating to show that it’s a bit disturbing....

I see Nathan smirk out the corner of my eye but both girls shake their heads in disagreement...

“It’s not gross....it’s interesting!....” Charlie insists...

“Hmm...yeah whatever you say...” I roll my eyes playfully “If that’s the kinda thing your into then Char, then by all means!...go ahead....but I never knew you we’re that type of girl-“

“Okay! Okay! It’s gross! End of topic okay!” She holds her hands up and I start laughing, along with Nathan as I find that pretty amusing...

Abby and Charlie we’re talking about god knows what really...but I know it has something to do with two people in our school, specifically a girl and boy......gosh!...I never knew they liked to gossip so much!

Charlie shakes her head and Abby smirks slightly “Sorry...okay I’ll shut up” She smiles sheepishly “and before you think....no...we don’t usually gossip...but it’s not every day that you learn that someone that you used to know is now hooking up with the most skan-“

“Okay! I don’t really want to know..” I shake my head, not wanting to have my head filled with mindless gossip...it’s always just rumours anyway...

Charlie smiles sitting back up straight in her chair “Okay.....okay...fine...no more..” She smiles a little slyly thou...

I nod “Good...” and pick up a fry from my lunch to eat.....and finally we start up a normal conversation.....that doesn’t involve anything nasty....that would out me off my lunch...

Just as we’re in mid conversation...I hear a very familiar voice speaking from behind me...

“Hey girls!” I groan dropping the dry in my hand as I slump down slightly in my seat “And......Nate..” I hear a smirk in his voice as he says that and I frown as I see Nate roll his eyes....

Already..I don’t like the way he’s speaking to my friends...

Noah, being the arrogant prick he is...plonks his tray down in between me and Charlie...and slouches down into the seat there.....smirking is signature smirk at us...

“What do you want Dean?” I grunt pushing my food around the plate, lost my appetite now...I thought I’ve seen enough of him already over the weekend!

Noah chuckles, and eye’s us all around the table “Just seeing how you are...” he shrugs his eyes landing back on me...

I roll mine at him and sit up in my chair “Yeah well...we we’re great.....” I look at him in his eyes “Before you came over...” I add a smirk threatening to creep up...

“Ooh! Chipmunk! I’m offended!” He places his hand over his chest in mock offense as he’s still wearing that smirk plastered to his face...

I roll my eyes at him once again and lift a fry to my mouth, absentmindedly chewing on it...

I see Noah’s eyes follow my movement....landing on the white bandage wrapping my arm...

“How’s the burn?” He asks, and I’m shocked to actually see that the smirk as gone, and replaced with a concerned expression....

Cleary my throat and feeling awkward as both Abby and Charlie’s gazes land on me with curiosity I shift on the chair...

“It’s fine...” I turn my head to narrow my eyes at the boy “Now if you don’t mind......we’re busy...so you can leave now..” I give him a sarcastic fake mouth smile turning away from him....

Charlie looks across to me with a straight expression first...but then a smirk appears on her face and I frown in confusion...why she’s smirking?

I then hear Noah’s familiar deep chuckle... “Fine, fine...I’m going..” He drags out and stands up from the table.....and just when I think he’s going he says...mainly to me but loud enough for them all to hear and passersby and on nearby tables...

“See you later then Chipmunk!....can’t wait to as much fun as we had Friday night!”

I swear I could have murdered him on the spot.

Charlie’s and Abby’s mouth drop open as they stare at me in pure shock...even Nathan looks at me in surprise...

I groan shaking my head at them “It’s not what it sounds like!” pathetic I know...but it’s the truth!

I’m well aware people nearby heard as they give me strange looks...but I ignore them, concentrating on the people sat opposite me...

“Not what it sounds like?! Lexi!....he just practically said that you two-!”

I cut Charlie off before she says something that will certainty scare me for life “No! No......just forget what he said..and listen to me..” I say looking at them...and they seat back waiting for me...

I drag a sigh...and curse at Noah in my head for doing that...what a prick!

“Well...you know he’s my neighbour yeah?”...all three nod “Well.....it just so happens he and his brother are friends with mine....so.....Friday.....all our electricity went out...and well.....his whol family came to ours...” I shrug explaining it as casually as I can...

“All his family?!” Charlie still looks shocked...

I sigh “Yes...except his parents.....”

Abby smirks “What did you do?”

“Nothing!” I frown at her “Just everyone a whole bunch of games...because you know....my brothers aren’t exactly the most sensible...”

Charlie then starts to chuckle “We were their Friday” She grins and I raise an eyebrow at her to see what her point is “if we stayed......god knows what would have happened...” She grins smirking suggestively...

I scrunch my nose up again in disgust shaking my head “You’re worse than Evan...” I comment picking up my drink to take a sip...

Charlie laughs out loud this time “why thank you!” She chimes

I give her an odd look “That wasn’t a complement you know...”

She shrugs her shoulders “Meh...it’s good enough for me...” She grins...and Abby cracks up laughing while Nathan shakes his head amusedly at her

Shaking my head at her too and go back to drinking my drink.....but can’t help the small amused smile to creep up onto my face....

I love my friends...

~~~~~~

World War Two..

Is surprisingly interesting to learn about.....

Not totally......but...mostly...yeah.....it’s not half bad...

“Oh.....hurry up!..” Charlie groans from next to me, impatient as she stares at the clock at the front of the classroom – last period of the day...and Charlie’s itching to go....

But too bad...we’ve got still like 30 minutes left of this class – History...

I silently chuckle at her as I stare down at the open text book in front of us – yeah..I might have said this was interesting...but reading paragraphs after paragraphs about how the German invaded Britain....is just taking it too far......like seriously...I’m gunna need glasses by the end of this class!

Okay...a little much...but still!

Too much reading on a Monday afternoon!

And it seems I’m not the only one who thinks that....as mostly everyone else in the class quietly chatting and not paying attention to the work set...

Pfff...I don’t blame them....cus I’m not either.

And by the loos of Ms March, our teacher – who makes these lessons better, doesn’t seem to be bothered much by the fact her students aren’t really doing much work.....

Charlie lets out a frustrated loud sigh beside me, laying her head on the table....I chuckle at how she’s acting.....it’s nearly the end...chill out Charlie!

Nathan’s sat the other side of me.....twiddling his pen, so he’s not interested either......but I’ve actually come to like History’s class...because one Ms March does make them better and more bearable to stay in...and also both Charlie and Nathan are with me...

But there’s just one small drawback....

Noah just happens to be in here too.....if you remember that.

And at the moment...his laugh is the quite possibly the only thing I can hear as it comes from the very back of the class.....

I narrow my eyes at my desk top, yeah I may not be actually doing any work...but still...his loud obnoxious laugh is very annoying!

I jump slightly and shift in my chair as I feel a vibration coming from my coat pocket......

My phone...

Curious as to who’s texting me at this time – while I’m in class......could be Seth.

Yeah...I’m still talking to him...but still not happy with the fact he might possibly ‘like; April more than a friend should anyway.....

Pulling my phone out, but making sure it’s hid under the desk I glance to the new message....

‘Looking good from back here Chipmunk ;)- Noah

Furrowing my eyebrows at the text, that I have no idea what it means...I forget that the fact it just came from the jerk sat two rows behind me..

swivelling around I turn my glare to him at the back of the class.....and only in return I’m given just a cheeky subtle wink form him before he goes back to laughing with his ‘mates’.

“Jerk...” I mutter under my breathe as I turn back around...

“Who?” Charlie pops her head up immediately and looks at me curiously...

I roll my eyes “Who’d you think?”

A smirk tugs at her lips as she glances pass me in Nathan’s direction..where I’m sure he signs something to her...

Before I can protest or do anything about it, Charlie grabs my phone from the table – where I stupidly put it- and starts tapping away..

“Whooa! Wait! What you doing?!” I yelp/hiss at her trying to grab my phone back but she smirks and dodges my hands...

A few seconds later she grins and drops my phone back on the table “Done!” She smirks, her eyes flicking back past me towards Nathan...

What have those two done?

Groaning I flick through my sent folder items...but don’t get very far as I’m interrupted by a vibrating again, a new message popping up...

‘Sounds gd!.....my place @ 9 tonight! ;)’- Noah

My eyes widen and I look up to Charlie’s smirking face “What did you do?!” I demand, freaked out by that text....

Charlie doubles over laughing, and I hear Nathan’s more silent laughs as I turn a harsh glare to Charlie before quickly flipping through my sent box items until I find it...

To Noah:

‘I’m up for some fun ;)....how about it?’

“Charlie!” I hiss/shriek looking at her with a deathly expression...

I cannot believe she sent that!

Still peeing herself laughing she slaps her hand down on the table “Oh chill!” her laughs calming down more “He obviously knows I sent it...he’s watch you...” she smirks...

Frowning I turn my head and sure enough, there’s Noah sat oh so causally at the back surrounded by a couple of people, and his deep dark brown eyes looking straight at me.....and a smirk present on his face...

I scowl at him turning back around and type two simple words back to him to get my message across- that are not very lady like, but who cares?! I’ve said far worse things than that to people in pass...why should he be any difference?

‘F**K Off!’

And if that doesn’t show tell him what to do....I don’t know what will.
