The morning was relatively awkward, I mean I was forced to eat, that was traumatizing. Mind you it was Nutella on toast, so I'll survive. Their shower is also scary, I mean I hate going in showers I don't know. Half an hour! Half an hour I was stuck trying to guess how the shower worked. 

And now Erin and Clara think I take ages in the shower, they did just seem to think I was simply upholding the stereotype of gay teenagers though, thanks for that. 

I must say I was thankful for being out of there, I prefer being in a comfortable well known environment......Well, I guess I haven't been in one of them since I was twelve, but still. 

New is scary! I'm not the only one who thinks that...right? 

I sigh in anxiety as I follow Erin into school; he's taking a route trying to avoid my step brothers. It won't take long for them to find us. 

I then frowned down at the mass of text messages I had. Most probably aware of my dislike of the idea of having everyone know my number, Luca gave everyone my number...

Dickhead.

I had 10 Numbers I didn't recognise sending me annoying messages, not angry, just with the purpose of being irritating. 

Well apart from 4 of them, 2 were concerned, I'm guessing Chance and Caleb, and the other two were annoyed, Chester and Aaron, just a guess. 

"How long till you think we'll be ambushed, think they'll just take you, but I doubt I'll survive" Erin said fake seriously as he looked back at me and I snickered. 

"Don't worry, I'll protect you" I teased and winked and he rolled his eyes. 

"Aw you don't worry your pretty little head, I'll do the protecting round here" Erin teased back and ruffled my hair, I narrowed my eyes playfully. 

"Bitch you wouldn't even see me coming" I huffed and he laughed. 

"Watch your back" I warned with a smirk when he just turned around and carried on. He simply flipped me off as he walked away and I rolled my eyes before following after him. 

-

Physics with Hunter if I remember from last Monday, oh what an eventful day. 

"Riley you little shit come here" I heard from behind me, speak of the devil. 

I turned around and smiled innocently.

"Oh hey there, had a nice night?" I asked with a smirk when he narrowed his eyes at me.

"You won't be smirking when you have to talk to Luca again...or Chester...Or Aaron...or Chance.....Or anyone..you're lucky I'm laid back" he said but thwacked me on the back of my head. 

I tsked and gave him a look as he smirked.

"I'm aware of that...they shouldn't worry so much" was my simple reply before ignoring him and sitting in class. 

To say Hunter was flirting with me in class was an understatement, but he hadn't psychically assaulted me yet so I was willing to let it go. 

Besides I find it hard to get angry with people....

And I may have flirted back....but still!

Next was English, great.

Nate was standing near the entrance as I walked over, looking pretty unimpressed, with Alex just looking his usual self, maybe a tiny bit excited to see me...or excited about the situation, could be either. 

"Um..hey" I said awkwardly and rubbed the back of my neck as I reached them. Nate just crossed his arms and glared at me while Alex replied back happily. 

"What were you thinking, I'm not hanging around when you meet Chance, Chester or Luca again, that's for sure" Nate warned before sighing and seeming more relaxed.

"You're in sooooo much trouble!" Alex chirped and stuck his tongue out at me, causing me to roll my eyes. 

"I shouldn't be, not like they're my parents" I commented, but I didn't mean it with hostility. I literally don't understand why they care so much, I can look after myself, always have. 

They got slightly annoyed when I spent all lesson talking with the girls in front of us, but that seriously wasn't my fault; they kept talking to me. 

Gym was okay as usual, gotta say it's better with Erin around. 

Then there was my free period, not very eventful.

And final period, MATHS.

Oh maths, favourite subject. 

I was okay with dealing, until I noticed a very uncomfortable Erin, standing a few metres from a glaring Alex. 

I snickered as a involuntary reaction; just my luck. 

"Well well, this'll be ...challenging" I said as I stopped in between them, and Erin sighed anxiously. 

"Yeah yeah he can go off with other people okay bye" Alex said before grabbing my arm and dragging me. 

I steadied myself and pulled against him. 

"Alex it's Erin's first time in this class too, you already have friends in this class" I tried to reason but he pouted while continuing to pull. 

"But you're betterrrr" he complained and I rolled my eyes. 

"Fine" he said when I didn't budge. 

"But, I ain't letting you stay alone with him." he crossed his arms sternly and I sighed. 

"Right." I said then walked into the class, leave them to sort themselves out. 

-

That lesson, was traumatizing. 

The horror of it is stuck in my memory, just me in between Erin and Alex, as Alex tried to antagonise and tease him, and I didn't understand anything the teacher was bloody saying. 

Ugh!

Now I'm walking with just Alex, as Erin decided to flee as soon as he could. 

"Is that you?" I asked with an agitated tone as I got constant alerts from a random number on my phone. He smiled brightly and I gave him a look. 

"I could punch you you're so annoying" I said and he chuckled.

"What?" I asked as he seemed to find that hilarious.

"Bitch don't underestimate me" I snapped with slight amusement and he just shook his head.

"You're asking for it" I warned and threatened to punch him. 

"Go on, try" he teased and I gave him a stern look, trying not to smile. 

"Seriously I will" I said and he carried on chuckling. 

"Give it your best shot" he said and I narrowed my eyes.

He doesn't think I'll do it.

"You asked for it" I said before punching him with only a fair amount of force in the face. 

"Woah there! " I heard a voice call and in a second I was being roughly grabbed and held. 

Amazing timing, seriously that's just typical.

"He asked for it!" I exclaimed with amusement as Aaron went to help him up from the ground he had fallen on and Chester had his arms wrapped around my chest really tightly.

"Riley what the hell" he said with a frown. 

"No seriously he legitimately asked for it" I said while chuckling and Alex laughed as Aaron helped him up.

"Yeah I did" he admitted and Aaron gave him a look. 

"You just get stranger everyday" he said with a unimpressed look and Alex winced.

"Remind me to never get on the wrong side of Riley please" he joked and Aaron tsked while rolling his eyes.

I gave Chester a look when he didn't let me go and was released quickly afterwards with him suddenly acting awkward. 

"Riley what the hell do you think you're doing, going off like that is highly irresponsible" Aaron complained and glared at me sternly. 

Guilt tripping me are we. 

I smiled at him, completely unfazed. 

"Sorry" I said and he frowned. 

"That's so selfish Riley, caused so much worry" he snapped and I cringed. 

Ahh my ultimate pet peeve, being called selfish. 

He noticed my change in reaction and then proceeded to tell me all about how much worry I caused, making me feel like shit by the time we reached the car. 

Dangit I would be angry at you but you're right! Why does he act parenty....he's not even the oldest! Can tell he's going to have kids when he is older.

Pretty sure I apologised about 60 times by the time we got home, and was let off the nagging when Chester snapped at Aaron, telling him he was making me stressed and causing him to start arguing with Chester instead. 

If these two are this annoyed about it....what the hell is Luca going to be like...

Maybe I should jump out and make a run for it...
