You sure?&#8221; David asks with a cheeky smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Yes, but why are you staying with me? Shouldn&#8217;t you be getting into trouble somewhere?&#8221; They didn&#8217;t seem as bad as the rumours I heard about them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Trying to get rid of us, princess?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The way Chris spoke and looks at me made my stomach flip and I like it. I am sure this is why all girls like him. He just has a way about him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;No,&#8221; The word came out almost as a squeak. He leans closer, &#8220;Good, because I decided you&#8217;re hanging out with us today.&#8221; It wasn&#8217;t a question but a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Why?&#8221; I find myself getting unusually annoyed at him. &#8220;I have been in the same school as you for years. If you want to get in Chelsey&#8217;s pants you don&#8217;t need to be nice to me. Just point and she&#8217;ll drop them, she&#8217;s accommodating like that.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I didn&#8217;t mean to sound bitter or jealous but I don&#8217;t want to be used. I&#8217;ve had that before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Woo, little sis,&#8221; David tries to calm me by the sounds of his tone. &#8220;We are here because you are cute and Chris has a crush on you.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I expected Chris to deny it but he didn&#8217;t. There was no way that could be true. He just stared at me as if to gauge my reaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;If this is some kind of-&#8221; I didn&#8217;t get to complete my sentence. I was cut off by Chris lips on mine. They were hot and soft. I was in too much shock to react. Not to mention it was my first kiss and I had know idea what I was doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He pulled back only seconds later, staring at me with a wanton look in his eyes.<br>&#8220;You are so bloody gorgeous.&#8221; Before I knew it, his mouth was on mine again. This time he must have realized my lack of experience because he whispered against my lips, &#8220;Just copy me, Princess.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of pushing him back like I knew I probably should I let him kiss me. I did my clumsy best to copy his movements.<br>He made me feel like I was going to melt into a puddle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His hand moved up and his fingers thread through my hair. Thankfully, he didn&#8217;t push me, he didn&#8217;t push his tongue in my mouth like I heard boys do and he didn&#8217;t touch me anywhere below my neck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This is so God damn hot.&#8221; I squeaked and pushed Chris away remembering his friend was there.<br>&#8220;Do I get a kiss too?&#8221; He was giving me a cheeky grin and wiggling his brows. I knew my cheeks were red, I could feel the heat from them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;David\u2026&#8221; Chris glared at his friend, almost growling. &#8220;Try anything with my girlfriend and I&#8217;ll cut your balls off.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;What?&#8221; I opened my mouth to ask but instead Chelsey asked first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eh, she&#8217;s back\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If looks could kill\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both guys looked to her, David stood up and drew his arm around her shoulder.<br>&#8220;Chris is going out with your little sister. Pretty cool int&#8217;it? Me and him dating sisters?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David is going out with Chelsey? Since when?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hang on a moment\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She looked ready to argue but I spoke first. &#8220;Since when am I-&#8220;<br>Chris pecked my lips again. &#8220;We kissed, you&#8217;re mine, Princess. Those are the rules.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wanted to argue but one, I didn&#8217;t think he&#8217;d listen and two, I actually like the idea of going out with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You can&#8217;t date Kim!&#8221; You know who exclaimed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jealous, me thinks. <em>Smirk<\/em><br>I do love annoying her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;She is a looser, you&#8217;re \u2026 Not.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I won&#8217;t hurt you because you&#8217;re a girl. But say anything else about my girl and then I promise you&#8217;ll regret it.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Possessive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David ushered her away before she could say anything else, but didn&#8217;t look mad at his friend. In-fact he was grinning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weird.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I bloody hate her. I have no idea how David has put up with the cunt for a year.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Hang on\u2026 They&#8217;ve been dating a year? But she&#8217;s always out on dates with guys,&#8221; I think out loud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Open relationship, they both can have sex with other people.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A million and one questions go through my mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I can see those gears working in your little head\u2026&#8221; He cupped my cheek. &#8220;We are exclusive. No one else.&#8221; He pecked my lips again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay, that was one of my questions, but I am still completely confused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Why?&#8221; He looked confused but smiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Why, what, princess?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was as if everything suddenly snapped and became clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Is this some kind of practical joke? Did my sister send you to embarrass me? Because I know before today you have never looked my way. Let alone had a crush on me.&#8221; I began packing my lunch box and phone away. &#8220;The kiss was great. But I am not being the entertainment for you or anyone!&#8221; I stand up and he follows me, pinning me the the tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Is that what you really think?&#8221; He actually look hurt. &#8220;That I would do something like that to a girl?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I shrugged trying to break myself free. &#8220;Stop fighting me!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I haven&#8217;t heard of you with a girlfriend. Why am I different?&#8221; I exclaimed close to tears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I have been crushing on you since induction day.&#8221; The test day of your chosen high school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Yeah,&#8221; I scoff. &#8220;That was years ago.&#8221; Only because I&#8217;m quiet doesn&#8217;t mean I&#8217;m shy. &#8220;If that was true why have I never seen you so much as look my way? Why do you always have a different girl on you?&#8221; I didn&#8217;t give him a chance to answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here I am having this weird heart to heart with the bad boy I have only really just met properly. It was kind of laughable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I broke free but only for him to grab my hand. I never realised before how tall he is. He was at least six-foot, huge compared to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He didn&#8217;t say anything, instead he just began dragging me along with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Chris, stop!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;No. I have to show you something.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He took out his phone and asked someone to meet him before hanging up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was starting to get really worried as he stopped by the side of the road outside school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t hurt me, Chris. I&#8217;m sorry.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He turned to me, looking down at me with a look I didn&#8217;t recognise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;You really think I would do that?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know\u2026 I mean maybe\u2026 No, I would hope not,&#8221; I stumbled over my words not sure what to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;One thing you have to know about me, Kimberley, is I will never hurt you, ever.&#8221; It was the first time he used my name and not just Kim as Chelsey had told him. Maybe he did know me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Just trust me this once, please?&#8221; He sounded nothing like the bad boy I had heard about.<br>If anything he seemed more than a little possessive and maybe clingy or maybe I&#8217;m misreading things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I gave him a small smile and nodded. He gave me a beaming smile, &#8220;That&#8217;s my girl,&#8221; He pressed a kiss to my forehead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He moved behind me. I tensed unsure what to expect. But much to my surprise he only drew his arms around my shoulders and hugged me against him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was pretty nice. I felt comfortable, warm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We stayed like that, as we waited for whoever he called.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Why me?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Because you are beautiful, sweet, honest and most of all, you.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Half that isn&#8217;t true and you know it.&#8221; I have no illusion to what I am, I added in my head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He didn&#8217;t reply. I turned my head to look up at him only to see him glaring at someone. But not me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Got a fucking problem?&#8221; I notice a few guys from our school stood about ten feet away, behind the school gate staring at us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They were what you could say the wannabe bad boys. Apparently kicking a round ball around a field makes them hard and sexy to girls. No idea\u2026<br>But they looked terrified of Chris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;No, man,&#8221; One of the guys said a little too quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Good. Best keep it that way!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dark sedan slowed down and pulled up beside us. I have no idea what make, but it doesn&#8217;t look cheap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chris opened the backdoor closest to us and indicated for me to climb in.<br>&#8220;You said you&#8217;d trust me,&#8221; He reminds me when I didn&#8217;t do it straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I climbed in and shuffled to the other side when I saw Chris climbing in beside me.<br>&#8220;Well, hello little brother. Going to introduced me to your tiny friend?&#8221; The man in the drivers seat looked like a few years older than Chris. He had the same black hair and grey-brown eyes, not to mention the tanned skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Gabe, this is my girlfriend, Kimberly. Princess, this is my brother, Gabriel.&#8221; Chris sat holding my hand.<br>&#8220;Hang on, hang on\u2026&#8221; He was driving by this point.<br>&#8220;You&#8217;re telling me little Kimmy is a real person?&#8221; He asked sounding genuinely surprised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Her name is Kimberley, and yes, of course she is!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His brother laughed. &#8220;Wait until the folks hear\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is that bad?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;They at home?&#8221;<br>&#8220;Yep\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I tuned out after that, my brain flood with questions.<br>Everything about this afternoon was confusing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not to mention I was worried about missing school, as I was positive we would.<br>Up until now I have not missed a a single day at school this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was so deep in thought I didn&#8217;t notice the car stop, neither did I notice Chris exit the car and go around my side to open the door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The ground is damp, I will not let you walk and fall over,&#8221; He said after opening the door. Before I had a chance to ask what he meant, I was lifted from my seat and out of the car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Chris, put me down!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Dad&#8217;s been washing the car,&#8221; Gabriel explained with a smirk, the whole time his brother still holding me bridal style. He didn&#8217;t put me down, even when we reached the front door of the large house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div><p id=\"pvc_stats_2034\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"2034\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.0\" viewBox=\"0 0 502 315\" preserveAspectRatio=\"xMidYMid meet\"><g transform=\"translate(0,332) scale(0.1,-0.1)\" fill=\"\" stroke=\"none\"><path d=\"M2394 3279 l-29 -30 -3 -207 c-2 -182 0 -211 15 -242 39 -76 157 -76 196 0 15 31 17 60 15 243 l-3 209 -33 29 c-26 23 -41 29 -80 29 -41 0 -53 -5 -78 -31z\"\/><path d=\"M3085 3251 c-45 -19 -58 -50 -96 -229 -47 -217 -49 -260 -13 -295 52 -53 146 -42 177 20 16 31 87 366 87 410 0 70 -86 122 -155 94z\"\/><path d=\"M1751 3234 c-13 -9 -29 -31 -37 -50 -12 -29 -10 -49 21 -204 19 -94 39 -189 45 -210 14 -50 54 -80 110 -80 34 0 48 6 76 34 21 21 34 44 34 59 0 14 -18 113 -40 219 -37 178 -43 195 -70 221 -36 32 -101 37 -139 11z\"\/><path d=\"M1163 3073 c-36 -7 -73 -59 -73 -102 0 -56 133 -378 171 -413 34 -32 83 -37 129 -13 70 36 67 87 -16 290 -86 209 -89 214 -129 231 -35 14 -42 15 -82 7z\"\/><path d=\"M3689 3066 c-15 -9 -33 -30 -42 -48 -48 -103 -147 -355 -147 -375 0 -98 131 -148 192 -74 13 15 57 108 97 206 80 196 84 226 37 273 -30 30 -99 39 -137 18z\"\/><path d=\"M583 2784 c-38 -19 -67 -74 -58 -113 9 -42 211 -354 242 -373 16 -10 45 -18 66 -18 51 0 107 52 107 100 0 39 -1 41 -124 234 -80 126 -108 162 -133 173 -41 17 -61 16 -100 -3z\"\/><path d=\"M4250 2784 c-14 -9 -74 -91 -133 -183 -95 -150 -107 -173 -107 -213 0 -55 33 -94 87 -104 67 -13 90 8 211 198 130 202 137 225 78 284 -27 27 -42 34 -72 34 -22 0 -50 -8 -64 -16z\"\/><path d=\"M2275 2693 c-553 -48 -1095 -270 -1585 -649 -135 -104 -459 -423 -483 -476 -23 -49 -22 -139 2 -186 73 -142 361 -457 571 -626 285 -228 642 -407 990 -497 242 -63 336 -73 660 -74 310 0 370 5 595 52 535 111 1045 392 1455 803 122 121 250 273 275 326 19 41 19 137 0 174 -41 79 -309 363 -465 492 -447 370 -946 591 -1479 653 -113 14 -422 18 -536 8z m395 -428 c171 -34 330 -124 456 -258 112 -119 167 -219 211 -378 27 -96 24 -300 -5 -401 -72 -255 -236 -447 -474 -557 -132 -62 -201 -76 -368 -76 -167 0 -236 14 -368 76 -213 98 -373 271 -451 485 -162 444 86 934 547 1084 153 49 292 57 452 25z m909 -232 c222 -123 408 -262 593 -441 76 -74 138 -139 138 -144 0 -16 -233 -242 -330 -319 -155 -123 -309 -223 -461 -299 l-81 -41 32 46 c18 26 49 83 70 128 143 306 141 649 -6 957 -25 52 -61 116 -79 142 l-34 47 45 -20 c26 -10 76 -36 113 -56z m-2057 25 c-40 -58 -105 -190 -130 -263 -110 -324 -59 -707 132 -981 25 -35 42 -64 37 -64 -19 0 -241 119 -326 174 -188 122 -406 314 -532 468 l-58 71 108 103 c185 178 428 349 672 473 66 33 121 60 123 61 2 0 -10 -19 -26 -42z\"\/><path d=\"M2375 1950 c-198 -44 -350 -190 -395 -379 -18 -76 -8 -221 19 -290 114 -284 457 -406 731 -260 98 52 188 154 231 260 27 69 37 214 19 290 -38 163 -166 304 -326 360 -67 23 -215 33 -279 19z\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/mazimai.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p><div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 2 &#8220;Sisters?
