All Chapters of Obsessed With My Step Brothers : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

"Rebel!"The voice rang across the parking lot.The hand around my wrist disappeared almost instantly. The tall boy released me so fast I nearly stumbled backward.I rubbed my wrist instinctively while looking past him.Dwayne was jogging toward us, his basketball jersey still on, a duffel bag slung over one shoulder. Sweat darkened the collar of his shirt, and his hair was damp from the game, but his expression was anything but relaxed."What the hell's going on?" he demanded.The tallest boy clicked his tongue, "Mind your business."Dwayne stepped between us without hesitation, putting himself directly in front of me."I think it became my business the second you stood in front of her” his voice deepened with each word.That somehow made it more intimidating.The boys exchanged uneasy glances. One of them scoffed, "They were just talking.""Funny," Dwayne replied, "From what I saw, it looked more like harassment."The tall one rolled his shoulders, "You want a fight?"Dwayne shrugge

I stood staring at Chris's bedroom door for a minute before raising my hand to knock. Something flashed through my mind, I remembered Chris barging into my room, opening my door without warning, acting like privacy was not in existence. A slow grin spread across my face as I wrapped my fingers around the handle.I pushed the door open without knocking, just like he usually does. I grimaced at the state of Chris’s room.The difference between Sean's room and this room was laughable.Sean's room looked like it belonged in a furniture catalogue while this looked like a tornado had come through. An hoodie was on the floor just in front of me. A basketball rested on top of piles of books on the floor, a couple of feet away. Shoes lay abandoned in the middle of the floor.His desk was buried beneath notebooks, headphones, empty water bottles and whatever that was. His bed wasn't even made. The duvet was hanging over one side."Does he live like this?" I muttered to myself as I stepped fa

“The truth is, it was me…” I was so focused, I could hear Maya's breathing. She looked like she regretted opening her mouth at all.I didn't blame her. Whatever she was about to say had been eating her alive.She took one long shaky breath and finallylooked me in the eyes."The bathroom video and the slut princess nickname. Vanessa made me do it."I already guessed but I gasped anyways, "...What?""I recorded you coming out with Dwayne and Vanessa made me send it to her."Everything inside me seemed to stop, I wanted to ask why but I left her to finish. "She already had the video before everyone else, I edited it with the song and graphics.""No..." I gasped even though I already knew. I still wanted to ask disappointed. Maya nodded miserably, “I didn't want to do it but she made me.""And?"Maya wiped a lone tear from her eyes, "She said you deserved to know your place and that she's meant to be the most popular girl in Maryville."A cold feeling settled in my stomach, the fake co

I woke up before my alarm could ring. I lay in bed staring at the ceiling for a few seconds, not remembering why I felt so uneasy and lost sleep quickly. Then it all came rushing back. The necklace Dwayne gave me, the party, me accidentally convincing Vanessa that Chris was secretly in love with her, Vanessa and Chris's argument. Vanessa's threat, “Game on.”I groaned into my pillow, "Happy Friday to me."I reached for my phone on the bedside table. There were no new messages from Ivy. I climbed out of bed and headed for the bathroom. The mirror greeted me with bed hair and dark circles."Lovely."After a quick shower, I wrapped myself in a towel and walked back into my room.I reached automatically for the long-sleeved undershirt I'd started wearing beneath my uniform. The scars, I almost forgot. My fingers lingered on my forearm for a second.The raised lines hid beneath my skin like memories that refused to disappear. I quickly pulled the sleeves into place before buttoning my

The ride home felt endless. Nobody spoke. Susan sat perfectly still, her back straight, her jaw so tight I thought she might crack a tooth.I sat watching Maryville disappear behind us.Every minute gave my mind more time to replay everything that had happened.Academic dishonesty, they said!. Suspended, they said. Vanessa had framed me. She paid Mrs Holloway to frame me. My Dad had left without telling me. I closed my eyes. What a disaster!. The gates of the Kane mansion finally slid open. Sean parked the car in front of the entrance before turning off the engine.Susan was first to unbuckle her seatbelt. She stepped out briskly like seating beside me had been torture. Sean and I followed. The front door had barely closed behind us before Susan spun around.I instinctively braced myself. Here comes the lecture. She's going to yell, make accusations, tell me I'm a disappointment to my dad who's working hard for me to go to Maryville even though I didn't ask for it.Instead, she lo
