Monday, 7:18

First day of school. Since all of my siblings are close in age, half of us basically go to the same school. It's stressful, since we don't buy huge houses that have 8 bathrooms and bedrooms. And Giselle and Yara both care about how they look on the first day the most, I let them have what they want.

I put on a shoulder less shirt, and some black jeans. I let my hair hang down, and put on some jewelry. As soon as I walk out of my door, Max puts a blanket over my shoulder.

" you don't need guys looking at your shoulders, sis." He says with a wink.

I roll my eyes and take the blanket off.

"Ma dile cuán frío está afuera" Sebastian says, while laughing.

" Camile, no está frío, sí?" My Mom says.

"no ma no hace frío afuera, es los angeles." I tell her, hitting Sebastian.

" Papá le dice que no necesita niños mirando a sus hombros" Giselle says, grabbing a banana from the counter.

" cami, ¿no quieres cambiar tu camisa?" Dad says.

" you're basically half naked" says Austin, while hopping on the counter.

" listen, I hate to ruin your lovely conversation but, we have to go." Says Mateo.

Sebastian, Giselle, Caleb, Mateo, and I walk out the door and head to school. The walk wasn't that long.

When we get to school every splits up and I'm on my own.

great, now I have to figure things out for myself.

I get out my schedule and someone taps me on my shoulder.

I jump and turn around.

" you can't do that to me!" I say, hitting cesar on the arm.

" well look at you." Says Cesar looking me up and down.

I roll my eyes.

" nice to see you too" I say walking away.

He catches up with me. I stop and read my schedule.

Cesar gently takes it from my hands. " you have math class with me." He says, grabbing my hand and takes me to his friends.

" Hey guys." I say to Monse, Jamal, and Ruby.

They all say hi back. And the bell rings.

I look over and see my sister making friends.

I used to think that my siblings would act like I didn't go to school with them, but they were chill, like they would ask if I'm okay during the day or hang out during free mods.

Cesar grabs mine and Monse's arm to take us to math.

Once we get to class, the teacher starts to call names.

After a couple classes, we go outside to eat lunch. I sit down and my brother Sebastian follows.

" where are your friends?" He asks.

" getting lunch." I tell him, popping a fry into my mouth.

" can I meet them?" he asks.

" sure, here they come." I say pointing to my friends that walking over.

" who is this?" Jamal asks.

" guys this my brother Sebastian, Sebastian these are my friends Monse, Cesar, Jamal, and Ruby." I tell them.

" nice to meet you" says Cesar.

" well I have to go lil sis, see you later." Sebastian says, walking away.

" he's hot like damn, but no one can compare to my papi Ruby!" says a girl.

" I'll make sure to tell him that." I say.

" Camile, this is Jasmine"

" You like Ruby?" She says.

" uh.. no?" I say confused.

" good." she says walking away.

After lunch we go to a couple more classes and school ends. I grab my stuff out of my locker and Cesar walks up to me.

" So, wanna come over to work on the project." He asks.

" yea, wait we have a project?" I ask him, stuffing my binder in my backpack.

" of course." he says.

We walk out of school and I tell Cesar that I'll walk with my siblings then go to his house.

" how was school guys?" I ask them.

" good" they all tell me.

When I get into the house I put my book bag down and text Cesar.

Me:
Can I come over now?

Cesar :
Yea, you can come now.

Me:
Alright.

I grab my keys and walk out the door. When I walk next door, I look around and see no Cesar. I just see a whole bunch of grown men sitting on couches.

I look down at my phone.

"oou chica caminar tu lindo culo por aquí" says a man in a white tank top.

I roll my eyes at his comment.

He gets off the couch and walks over to me.

" well what do we have here?" He says looking me up and down.

" Spooky get away from her, she's with me" Says a voice.

I turn around it's Cesar.

Thank god , he's here.

" but we were just starting to have fun." He says.

Cesar takes me inside and into his room.

" listen, if this is what's gonna happen everytime I walk past or come over, then hell no." I say, as I start to worry.

" you're cute when you worry, you know that?" He tells me. " it definitely won't happen again, I'll make sure I'll get my brother to stop."

" thanks" I say.

" so we don't really have a project, I just wanted to invite you over." He says.

" well, then what did you want to do?" I ask.

" kiss you." He says.

" haha, yea sure." I say, sitting down on his bed.

" no I'm serious" he says sitting next to me.

" and I'm not su-" before I finish, Cesar kisses me.

When he backs up, he smirks.

I get a text telling me it's time to eat.

" uh thanks I guess, I have to go eat." I tell him, walking out his house.

When I get into the house I wash my hands and sit down at the table.

Halfway into the dinner, Max clears his throat

" so cam." he starts.

"hm?" I speak.

" Cesar kissed you?" He finishes.

I choke on my food.

" uhm..."

They all look at me.
