All Chapters of My New Boss Is My Brother's Best Friend: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Sam's POVWorst day ever.Today was the first day of my freshmen year at Eastvale High School. I'd had high hopes to make a friend when I finally got here... But it turns out, no one wants me. They all want Ben.My big brother. He's a senior and popular. He has so many girls crawling all over him, and he loves it. He's a TE on the football team and he hangs out with the rest of the popular crowd... Including the stupid skanky girls. I don't know how many times I walked in on my brother and some random chick in our house... Then they'd treat me like I'm some sort of maid. Like, what the hell?And for some reason, he doesn't see it. He just laps up all the attention, showing off for anyone who will bother to look. It's disgusting how he acts like he's God's gift to the world.So does his stupid best friend Ares... But I don't want to talk about him. Ares is the QB on the team. He is THE MOST popular boy in school. And I get it he's handsome and suave...Once upon a time I had a crush on

Ares knows this. And yet, he won't do a damn thing to correct peoples assumptions now. He's just laughing along like its the most hilarious thing he's ever heard. But then again, Ares Beck has never been bullied a day in his life. He is the one people try to emulate. Everyone wants to either date or become the next Ares Beck... Except me.I want nothing to do with him. But I guess he missed the memo.A tear leaks down my face as I turn back to Ares. Something crosses his face as he watches the tear fall off my chin. I can still hear the laughing and jeering coming from behind me, but I refuse to acknowledge them. I don't give a second glace to the bimbo shoving her boobs in my face. I just focus on the bastard who started this all."Ares. I was only trying to get my books so I could go home," I choke out. "Next time you want one of your sluts, take her to your locker! Or better yet, go screw her in your car and then switch her out far away from me! I never want to see you ever again!"

I know it's childish. But even when they are out of sight, they were haunting me. Taunting me. I knew I would never be able to pay them off. I can't sleep at night because I'm scared I will lose everything I own... Which admittedly isn't much."I can get a job at the bar... Or as a waitress... I don't need a job at Ares high tech company! I don't need your friend to hire me just because he is taking pity on me!" I huff in annoyance.I'm not sure why I'm fighting this so much. If it were any other company than Beck Technology (Ben calls it Beck Tech... cute... eye roll) I would be jumping through the roof! But because it's Ares' company, I feel like I'm drowning in even more debt! Which is stupid. I just don't want to owe that bastard anything.Just the thought of facing him again after all these years has me anxious. I will admit, through the years his memory has played in my mind. I can't wash that smug grin from my brain. I can't stop hearing his voice calling my name in that taunti

Ares POVThe moment Samantha entered my office, my breath caught in my chest. She is even more stunning than the last time I saw her up close. She has a faint floral scent. And even with that look of absolute loathing, she is the most gorgeous creature alive.Not that I don't deserve that look from her. It's to be expected. But I would kill for her to just smile at me once. The last time she smiled at me was when she was at her 10th birthday party and shared a piece of her cake with me.It was then I knew I was in deep trouble. I didn't want to hurt her and push her away the way I did... But I knew if I touched her... let's just say I didn't have a death wish, and Ben isn't a small guy."Samantha... I... It's been a long time," I mumble.It had been years since I'd seen her face to face. She left me here. And I know she did it on purpose. She moved as far as she could... Well, not exactly as far as she could. That would probably be the far reaches of Alaska. She only moved to New Jers

I want to smile like some love-struck idiot. I finally won! But I can't let her know how happy it makes me or she'll back out instantly. As long as I act like this is all business, she couldn't stop me from getting what I want.I wrap my arm around her waist and her body stiffens against mine. That's fine. I'm just getting her used to the idea of me being next to her. Because I will be. For a very long time.I take my private elevator down to my car and help her in. She is the first one in my car with the intent of keeping her and not taking her home to screw her brains out. But I'm not going to tell her that.Soon we are making our way into the center of the city and I pull up in front of my favorite Italian restaurant. I also happen to know Italian is her favorite too, so I'm not worried she won't like what's on the menu.The hostess greeted me with a huge smile. "Mr. Beck," she coos, and I almost face-palm myself. I forgot she worked here, and she obviously is oblivious to the fact
