Title: Never Judge A Book By Its Cover.
Chapter 1: New Kids.
Brax P.O.V
I was in sitting in my business class, doing absolutely nothing, my usual teacher Mrs Marks was away at a conference so we were stuck with a useless substitute teacher who knew little to nothing about what we were meant to be doing. So I sat there, playing around on my phone, usually teachers would take phones off you, but like I said this teacher knew absolutely nothing and probably didn't even know I was here, let alone breaking school regulations.
I heard the teacher clear there throat from behind me, damn it, I'm busted.
"Darryl, this is Matt and he is new to the class, I think he would probably be best sitting with you." Said the substitute teacher, she was only saying that because the rest of my class was full of nerds, the type that can get quite angry when they are interrupted. I was only in this class to learn about business, I have always been interested in starting up my own business, being my own boss and making my own decisions.
Matt sat down beside me, he seemed alright, the teacher was right, he would fit in with my group.
"Hey, I'm Matt." He said as he sat down beside me.
"I'm Darryl, but just call me Brax, I prefer it." I said politely.
"How'd you get Brax out of Darryl? If you don't mind me asking." He questioned.
"My last name is Braxton, and I think they name Darryl is just too formal, so my mates called me Brax one day, I liked it so it stuck." I answered. "Where are you from, why'd you move to Summer Bay?" I continued.
"I'm from the city, well mum died a couple months ago and it was just too hard being in the same house and place as her, my sister found it very hard to move on so Dad decided he'd take the Sargent job here and so we packed up our lives and moved to Summer Bay." He finished.
"Oh I'm sorry about your mum." I said sincerely.
"Thanks, but it's alright, we knew she wasn't well for sometime so we sort of prepared ourselves for it... Well not so much my sister, she is a bit stubborn and just wouldn't allow herself to think that we were losing mum so when we did it hit her hard." He said, I could hear the sadness in his voice.
After Business I took him to meet the River Boys. The boys were a bit sceptical about him at first, but as soon as he told us that he surfed all doubts were gone and he fit in straight away.
"So you got any sisters?" Brody asked, I just laughed. Of course he'd ask that, he never thought with the head on his shoulder, if you know what I mean.
"Geez he's been here one day and you're already trying to hit on his sister." Heath snickered.
Matt ignored it and just answered with. "Yeah, I do she's our age."
"Our age how's that possible?" Brody questioned, he wasn't the smartest.
"She's my twin, we aren't identical we just share some similarities." Matt answered.
"Is she hot?" Pee-Wee then asked.
Matt just shook his head and answered with. "She's more into the footy players, the good looking jerk, and the one's that always seem to treat her like shit. She's had so many decent guys after her, but she just ignores them and goes for all the douches."
That always seems to happen, girls go after the arseholes when there are these decent good guys after them but the girls pay no attention to them.
"Where do you live?" I asked Matt.
"Oh I live in Sunshine Avenue, it's on the beach." He finished. That place was a real nice estate, only the wealthiest of people live there.
"Oh I only live about 10 minutes from you." I said. My house was nice, it was good enough for me, and although mum was a drunk and dad has taken off we still managed to afford a nice house, which was good. My brother's needed some stability in their lives.
"I'll walk home with you this afternoon if you want?" I asked, I got sick of walking home with Heath, he was an idiot at times, and constantly hitting on the girls on the way home, who showed little to no interest in him.
"Yeah sure, I'll text my sister and tell her to meet me at the bus stop." He said.
3.05pm after school at the bus stop –
We were standing at the bus stop waiting for his sister to come when I saw Leah walking with some girl, who I could only assume was his sister. Leah hugged her and then got on the bus and she continued walking towards me, I couldn't see her face yet, her hair was down and covering her face from my view, she was a tall slender girl, with tan legs and everything about her was petite. She finally looked up when she was less than 10 metres away; she flashed a smile at her brother and walked up beside him.
"Charlie this is Brax, Brax this is Charlie." He said as he used his hands to gesture to us. She looked up at me and smiled, she was gorgeous. She was tall, but shorter than me, the way I like my girls, I liked being taller than them it made me feel as if that I have to protect her seeing she's smaller than me. She wasn't skinny she was well toned and fit, her body was rocking, from what I could see of it, she was wearing the Summer Bay school dress and it fitted her snugly showing every curve of her body. She had long tanned legs, with a beautiful face and blue eyes with long brunette hair.
"Hey." She said with a cute little smile. I was nearly speechless but I managed to awkwardly splutter out .
"Hey..." I said staring at her; she looked me in the eyes.
"Anyway let's get going." Matt said as he grabbed her arm and began pulling her along, I walked beside Matt. Hopefully he didn't notice me staring at his sister. We talked on the way home, Charlie was nothing that I thought she'd be, I thought she'd be the usual pretty girl. Stuck up and bitchy, but no, she was funny, smart and down to earth, just goes to show don't judge a book by its front cover.
Matt was right though, him and his sister did share similarities, they were tall and skinny, although Matt had a fair bit of muscle on him, they were both funny and had the same eyes, although I wasn't memorised by Matt's.
"Anyway this is me." I said pointing down my street. "Do you want to walk to school with me tomorrow?" I questioned, hoping he'd say yes.
He looked at Charlie and she just nodded, "Yeah sure, 8:30 tomorrow here?"
"Sounds good, I'll see you's tomorrow." I smiled, mostly at Charlie.
"Yeah, see ya mate." Matt said before walking towards his house.
"Bye Brax." Charlie said sweetly before running to catch up with her brother. I watched them walk away, and I noticed they both had the same walk, except Charlie's walk was more graceful and had more of a spring to it, she was so cute. I walked home slowly, not really looking forward to walking into a messy house, and having to cook my brother's dinner.
Charlie P.O.V
"Charlie hurry up! We're going to be late." Matt yelled from the front door. I finished putting on my make up, I quickly grabbed my bag running through the house and grabbing the lunch I had made earlier before stuffing it in my bag and running towards the front door. Matt had already left and started walking up the street, so impatient; I quickly locked the door before stuffing the keys in my bag and running down the road trying to catch up with him.
"Matt wait up!" I called angrily. He was already at the corner talking to Brax, when I caught up to him I punched him in the shoulder.
"Oww geez what was the for!" He cried. I had to be honest; I could throw a decent punch.
"Thanks for waiting up for me. I only had to run the whole way." I said sarcastically.
"Well stop taking so long in the shower!" He retorted back.
"Well I'm sorry I care about personal hygiene and that I brush my hair more than once a week!" I snapped back.
"You spent half an hour putting make-up on." He argued.
"Well I am a girl that's what we do!" I yelled back.
"Geez, you can tell you two are siblings, fight like wild dogs." Brax snickered.
Me and Matt stopped fighting and went silent and just stared at Brax.
"Woah sorry I got involved." He laughed back. I walked over to the other side of Brax so he was in the middle of me and Matt, although me and Matt loved each other, we still fought quite a bit, dad was never home to stop it so it usually ended in tears, well for me anyway and I wasn't about to cry in front of Matt's cute friend.
He was taller than me, well built. He had broad shoulders and a big muscley frame, gorgeous tanned skin and his hair looked as if it had been styled cut, but looking at Brax he didn't seem as if he'd go get his hair styled. It must have just been natural, just a bonus that come with his hot body and impossibly good looks.
As we walked into school I was eager to see if Brax's friends were as hot as him, our hands kept touching together slightly, he didn't move his away from mine so I continued to just act as if I didn't notice it was happening. We passed this table full of muscley guys, must have been Brax's friends. Matt and Brax stopped at the table and I continued to walk away, I could see Leah waiting for me over near B block.
"See ya Charlie!" Brax called.
I turned around and waved at him softly, before smiling and walking away.
Brax P.O.V
I watched Charlie walk away, staring at her arse, I couldn't help myself. One of the boys wolf whistled towards her, she turned around and I saw her blush, that was cute.
"Damn! Matt is that your sister!" Pee-Wee asked shocked.
Matt didn't answer obviously a bit annoyed that the boys were taking so my interest in his sister.
"Anyway boys I have to go to the office, I'll be back in 20 minutes." Matt called as he got up and walked towards the office. When he was out of hearing distance the boys again began to talk about Charlie.
"Holey shit, she's sexy!" Pee-Wee called. "I wonder if she'd give me her number." He wondered out loud.
"Thank god she's our age; finally we have some potential in our grade. She's hot!" Sam said eagerly.
"I wonder how good she is in bed. I'd like to try her out." Brody said. Angry rose inside of me, I'm not sure why but something about what Brody said hit a nerve. I lashed out and pushed him to the ground. I stepped over him and leant down so I was in his face.
"Brody we don't talk about girls this way do we! We respect the ones that have respect for themselves, and we do not under any circumstances talk about a mate's sister like that, do we!" I yelled.
"Yeah man, I'm sorry." He said with sincerity. I stepped off him before grabbing his hand and pulling him back to his feet, before slapping his back and pretending like nothing happened.
"Here she comes." Sam said eagerly. I looked over to see Charlie approaching my table, Leah, Bianca, Martha and Roo following close behind. She smiled as she walked up to me, her hair blowing in the breeze.
"Hey." I called to her.
"Hey, is Matt here?" She asked, looking around me searching for her brother, I looked around to see various boys staring at her and nodded their head up, she smiled awkwardly before looking back at me.
"No he's not. He's gone to the office."
"Um... Can you do me a favour?" She asked, wishfully. I just nodded, I'd do anything for her she already had me whipped and we weren't even together. She dug through her bag searching for something, before pulling out a pair of keys. "Can you give these to my brother? And tell him that I won't be home for a while because I'm going to Leah's house." She said pointing back towards her friends. She had the keys dangling in her fingers.
"Yeah of course I can." I said happily. She handed me the keys, her hands was in mine, her hand was so small against mine, and she dropped the keys and pulled her hand back before she smiled.
"Thanks Brax." She said sweetly before turning around and walking away.
"Brax, you totally have the hots for her!" One of the boys yelled.
"Shut up you idiot, remember we don't touch mates sisters. That's the rule." I called.
"Matt doesn't know that." He replied smartly. I just shook my head and watched her disappear.
Leah P.O.V
As we walked away from the River Boys, I could feel their stares following us, although I knew they weren't staring at me, all eyes on Charlie, especially Brax's. Of course the new girl would come in and take the interest of the guy that all the girl's have wanted since the start of high school, typical. Don't get me wrong I like Charlie, she's really nice and fun but I can't help but be a little bit jealous.
After school we headed to my place, we gossiped and talked about school, I filled her in on all the guys and girls in our grade, the good and the bad. But soon after her dad picked her up and took her home.
Matt P.O.V
I was ready to go the beach when Charlie turned up with dad.
"Do you want to come for a surf? I'm heading down their now?" I asked, although I already knew the answer.
"Yeah, you go down I'll be there shortly." She replied.
As I walked down the beach I noticed Brax, Pee-Wee, Brody and Sam all standing around in a big group.
"Hey boys." I yelled.
"Hey Matt." Brax handed me a beer. We were underage and I knew if dad found out he'd kill me but I wasn't in any opportunity to pass up friends at the moment so I took the beer and began to drink it.
"Woah man your sister surfs?" Sam asked, Brax stopped talking to me and looked over to where the rest of the boys were staring.
Charlie was walking towards us, in here bikini with her surf board in her arm, this will be interesting I though.
Charlie P.O.V
Wow, this was awkward, all of them staring at me, I was just hoping I didn't trip over. I had a tendency to make myself look like an idiot around people; I concentrated on where I was walking. I looked up to see Brax, he was really the only guy I knew out of them, he was semi naked, only wearing board shorts, and he looked hot.
Brax P.O.V
I watched her walking over to us, she was in a purple bikini that made her tan stand out, she was hot no doubt about it. I looked at her from head to toe, knowing the boys behind me were doing the same thing. She stood her board upright before stabbing the nose into the sand. She smiled at us, not sure on what to say.
"Anyway let's go for a surf boys." Matt called; the boys jeered and ran towards the beach.
When they were all in the water, I stood there with my head on an angle and asked.
"You surf?" I pointed at her white and pink board. She leant up against it before adding.
"Yeah I do. Well I try..." She said awkwardly. "Matt tried teaching me, but brother and sister working together doesn't really end well. After 10 minutes we are in the water trying to drown each other." She laughed.
"You know I can teach you if you want? I've been surfing since I could walk and I know a thing or two." I said, trying not to sound cocky.
"Yeah, that'd be great. But not today..." She added.
"Yeah that's probably a good idea. I'm very... hands on. And I don't think your brother would be too keen on seeing that." I laughed.
"Yeah, he gets protective..." She laughed.
I grabbed my board and stabbed it into the ground next to her's and leant up against it, so I was facing her.
"Why?" I asked.
"Well it's fair to say I've never had much luck in the boys department... Always been left broken hearted. So any guys I get close with now become Matt's enemy I went out with his best friend a while back, 2 weeks later they were fighting. Matt didn't think he was good enough for me, and I was only 14 and I didn't put out, so he dumped me. Matt is just really protective, he's just like my dad. Any boy that even tries to flirt with me or ask me out Matt gets all protective and ends up brawling with them it's kind of embarrassing, but sweet. " She replied.
"Looks like he is going to have to fight me then." I laughed, hoping she'd catch my drift. She smiled sweetly, before looking at the ground I could see she was blushing, I just laughed. I pulled my board out of the ground.
"Come on lets go for a surf." I said waiting for her to pull her surf board out and we ran into the water together.
