4. Reunion
With a smile still plastered on her face Eve arrived home. Yet when she saw her brother's car that smile was turned into a completely different one. Not the ‘I just made out with an insanely hot guy smile but my big brother is home YAY!’ Smile. She all but jumped out of her baby blue Volkswagen beetle and took off towards the front door.
"Ethan?!" she called through the home, "Ethan where are you?!" she yelled and jumped with excitement when she heard some laughing outside by the pool and took off, "Ethan!" she squealed, taking off towards her older brother standing with open arms.
"Hey Eve." He smiled getting tackled by his baby sister with a hug. He picked her up off the ground spinning her around as she still squealed.
"I missed you so much!" she said and that excitement and squealing turned into watery eyes and a single tear running down her cheek.
"You missed me but me being here makes you cry?" he teases, wiping her tear as she just smacks him on the arm, "Come here you dork." He laughed, pulling her into another hug. "I missed you too." Eve couldn't help but keep her smile, as he hugged her tight, she had missed her big brother so much and not seeing him for this long was really starting to take a toll on her, "Did you make my bed?" he grinned pulling out of the hug and getting another smack from his baby sister, "Ouch E." he cringed.
"Sorry but don't be mean to me. You are just now getting home and the first thing you say is ‘did you make my bed?’" she asked with an annoyed tone.
"No the first thing I said was I missed you." he smiled proudly like he won and Eve just rolled her eyes at her dumb big brother.
"Whatever but yes I made your bed." she told him.
"Eve!" She heard someone squeal as she turned to see Sophie, someone who has become her best friend over the last 5 years.
"Sophie!" Eve yelled, letting go of her brother and running over to his girlfriend hugging her tight.
"Well I feel loved." Ethan pouted, making both Sophie and Eve laugh at him.
"Ethan come get your shit out of my car!" they all heard someone yell.
"Dude I'm coming!" Ethan called back, "Eve I will be right back." he tells her kissing the side of her head before walking back into the house.
"Umm...who is that?" Eve asked Sophie pointing to where her brother just walked off too.
"Oh that's just your brother's BFF. Honestly if I didn't know any better I would assume they are dating since they are together all the damn time." Sophie says with a laugh making Eve laugh, "So tell me about the boy?"
"What? What boy?" Eve asked not sure how Sophie could always do that.
"Oh come on you have the biggest dumbest smile I have ever seen. That only means two things you either had some amazing sex or you met an amazing guy. So which one would it be?" she teased kinking her eyebrow at Eve who just smiled even bigger.
"Well I had no sex today but there is a guy. A really cute one and super great. You may know him." she smiles, waving Sophie closer so she could whisper in his ear, "His name is Ethan." She smirked making Sophie laugh, "Now I know he is a little retarded and sometimes very annoying but I love him."
"You’re so stupid."

"Dude where the hell have you been?" Ethan asked walking out of his house over to his best friend's car.
"I was giving you and Sophie your alone time like you asked." He shrugged, grabbing his bags and handing them to Ethan, "But man I am glad I did, I met a girl."
"Jaxon, you always meet a girl." Ethan asked, grabbing another one of Sophie's bags, throwing it over his shoulder.
"I know but this one was so damn hot. She has this kick ass body, like the kind that you know moves very well if you know what I mean." Jaxon laughs.
"Yeah man I know what you mean." Ethan laughs, not really surprised since he knows his best friend. He is for the fun, then the random hook ups that never lead to anything else. That is just Jaxon never dates, never keeps a girl around long, just someone for a fun night, "So when are you going to let yourself get more in touch with her moves?" he teased, raising his eyebrow at Jaxon who just laughed.
"I don't know. I may want to actually talk to her more." He said and Ethan gave him a ‘yeah right look’,"Ok your right probably not but one day I might want to get more serious but I don't think that day is today." He laughed, grabbing the last of the bags.
"Yeah well I don't see that day happening anytime soon." Ethan teased getting a punch from his best friend.
"So where is this sister of yours?" Jaxon asked.
"Out with Sophie but listen here, best friend or not don't give her that look you give those other girls because I will kick your ass." Ethan warns with a somewhat kidding tone but also being completely serious.
"Dude it's your sister I know they are off limits even I wouldn't cross that line." Jaxon shrugged, closing his car, "Well I mean unless she is just insanely hot then I might think differently." He teased.
"Dude your ass will be kicked." Ethan said, giving his friend a shove before walking into the house.
18. Drunken brother "My baby, my perfect baby," Ethan grinned wrapping his arms around Sophie as she stood talking to Cindy. "Looks like someone has been enjoying the beer," Cindy smirked taking a sip of her own drink. "Ethan, are you drunk?" Sophie spun around in his arms wanting to laugh at his face; he was always a cute drunk. "Maybe just a tiny bit," he smiled kissing her hard and making her stumble back. "You wanna know something?" "What?" Sophie laughed at his behavior, wiping her lip. "When we were broken up-" His hiccupped interrupted him. "I hiccupped," he laughed making Cindy and Sophie laugh. "We can see that Ethan," Cindy shook her head at the boy in front of her. She has known Ethan awhile and she thought he was a pretty great brother to Eve. She was jealous not having someone to look out for her like he does. "Yup..." Ethan nodded. "What was I saying?" He squinted looking at Sophie who shook her head at him. "Right we broke up." "Ethan I don't want to talk about
17. Spicy "Eve..." Jaxx sighed following Eve down a hall. He heard the music start back up and figured everyone was over the little show in the kitchen, but that didn't change that the girl a few steps ahead was sprinting away from him. "Eve!" He growled when she tossed a look behind her and walked into a room where the door was finally unlocked. "Eve!" He followed her in, quickly realizing it was not a bedroom, but a closet. "Why are you following me?" Eve growled leaning against the wall behind her. "Why did you just walk into a closet?" Jaxx looked around at the suits and the odd smell of an old person. "Because I didn't want you following me," she crossed her arms over her chest, acting as if walking into the closet was her plan. She was trying to get away from him and was more hoping for a bedroom, a bathroom, an office, or something. The closet was the last place she intended on going but Bevin's house has so many damn rooms and doors, she just entered the one that finally
16. Fighting jealousy She didn't know what he was doing. She wasn't sure the game he was playing, but she didn't like it. First he seemed to ignore her all night, then he stood staring, now he was dancing with Rose; the definition of slut. What did she think she was doing? She knew Jaxon had come with Eve yet there she was hitting on him. Eve assumed Jaxon would have at least asked her to dance or something, but he never did, and now he was off dancing with the slut and she was pissed. "You ok E?" Mouth asked noticing his friend had lost her movements. Mouth has known Eve since they were in fifth grade. She was definitely different then his other friends, but for some reason the girl in the back was shy and he never understood it. Even at seven she was gorgeous, had a bubbly personality, and once you got her talking, she wouldn't shut up, but he could never seem to get her talking. She smiled a lot, he remembered that. Her dimples always grew deeper and he knew when they got so dee
15. Who is mouth? The music was too loud for Sophie's liking and the smell of weed made Eve's stomach churn a little, but all in all they were having fun. The guys let Eve and Sophie socialize a little but kept a close distance in case they gave a sign for help. It was fun, the party like most they attended, was fun but Jaxon definitely wished he was the one who was dancing all up close to Eve instead of someone she referred to as 'Mouth'. The name was a little weird if you asked him and the fact that the guy looked not at all like the type who would make Eve get those little smirks she was giving him, it confused him a little more. "Like that's his real name?" Jaxon asked once again still not getting any of what was going on. "Umm...no," Ethan took a sip of his beer looking at his sister. "Marvin is his name but since I have known th
14. Craduation and trouble "This is so boring." Ethan groaned more than sure his graduation didn't last this long. He wasn't even sure what was going on; he half listened to everything they have talked about and just wanted it to be over. "Why did we agree to come again?" Jaxon questioned. "Because we love Eve and told her we would." Sophie reminded growing annoyed with both her boyfriend and friend. They have complained through the whole thing. Now of course when Eve's name was called they both were obnoxious and loud with screaming and she was so glad she did not allow them to sneak in the horn they wanted because people stared and she was embarrassed; she only imagined what Eve thought. "I never promised to come. I got stuck coming by default." Ethan pointed out knowing if it wasn't his little sister h
13. "Jaxy has a little crush'' Eve stretched her hands high above her head before rolling out of her bed. She slept well; she slept fantastic because after her night of rolling around with Jaxx really did make her tired even if it was just playing around. She had a feeling she was in trouble; like serious trouble with that boy because she has known him a week and has feelings she shouldn't right now. Now it's nothing crazy; she isn't like one of those a guy is nice to her and shows interest and is now all stupid in love or some crazy b.s like in the movies but she does have a crush. He is cute how could she not; plus he is one hell of a kisser. She seriously just let him lead the whole time because the way his lips moved and tongue danced was like nothing she has ever had before and she has made out with lots of guys. Yet on her list Jaxx Shae O'Connor was her favorite; was the best. "I'm hungry." She mumbled to herself running her hand through her hair and looking around her room.
