"Chug it."
The older boy nudged his sister who was nagging at him, and he took his eyes off of all the friends he had surrounding him at their lunch table. "Shut up, Em."
The only other girl at the table shook her head. "Emily's right. You lost, so you have to chug it."
Aaron rolled his eyes. "It's not like it's a beer, guys."
"I can go get you one if you want that instead."
The older brunette glared down to his little sister sitting beside him.
"What?" Emily laughed. "You don't think that Derek has some stashed away in his locker or in his car?"
The darker teenager nodded his head. "It's true."
The teens sitting out in the burning sun watched as the eldest in their group of friends chug the can of soda, his 'prize' for losing the bet to his best friend Derek about being able to ask out a new cheerleader that was here at their school. He had been trying to stay away from anything that would throw his diet out of whack, a strict diet that his football coach had put him on, and this was the perfect was to do that.
Emily backed away just slightly when her brother slammed the can down on the table. "Attractive," she stated dryly, watching the older brunette belch from all the carbination. "So why didn't she want to go out with you, Aaron? Were you too big for her?" she joked, teasing the older boy about the small amount of baby fat he still had on his stomach.
"She's gay," the older brunette shot back. "Maybe you'll be the one to deal with her instead."
Emily's hands were thrown up into the air as she shrugged. "I'm good with that," she laughed, high fiving their genius friend in the group. "She's pretty hot."
Fixing her glasses on her nose, Penelope looked up from her computer. "Hey Em, you know we have a new Spanish teacher? Mrs. Casteneda is on maternity leave."
"She was pregnant?"
"Em, what did you think? That she was just fat?" the darker teen in the group laughed.
Gently nodding her head, the privileged girl hid the smirk from her friends and brother. "Kind of, yeah."
Hearing the bell ring from inside the school building, Aaron looked to his little sister and shoved her shoulder. "Don't go getting another hickey, alright?"
Emily stuck her tongue out at her brother. "Don't go getting another STD, alright?"
Both Derek and Reid pulled the brother and sister apart before the fists were thrown, and Reid walked along with the two girls down to their Spanish class. "If you two start fighting on campus again, the principle said that you guys would be suspended."
Rolling her eyes, the brunette let the genius boy continue on his rant. She and Aaron had moved around a lot due to their mother and her postings around in different countries, but they had been in California for three years now and the ambassador had promised that they'd be able to graduate before she moved to another posting.
"Em? Emily?"
The ivory skinned girl's head spun at the sound of the genius boy's voice. "Yeah?"
Penelope grinned, nudging her fist into the older girl's arm as they entered their class. "Were you even listening?"
"When do I ever?" the brunette laughed, her dark eyes crinkling as she laughed along with her two friends.
"Well I would hope that that's different in the classroom."
Turning at the sound of a new voice, Emily forced her jaw not to hit the floor when her eyes met those of the blond haired woman standing behind the teacher's desk. Her dark blue eyes were piercing into hers, her teeth glistening white as she smiled to her.
"Well?" she laughed gently, setting down the papers that she had been holding in her hand. "Name?"
"Emily," the seventeen year old girl choked out, clearing her throat when she felt it start to swell. "Sorry hi, I'm Emily."
The new teacher gently nodded her head. "My name is Ms. Jareau. Now I don't care what you do outside of this room, but during class you'll listen to every word. Right?"
She sat down quickly into her seat, nodding as hastily as she could to let the gorgeous woman with her curly blond hair know that she was paying attention. "Yes Ms. Jareau."
Leaning over to her friend's desk, Penelope's red hair bounced as she laughed. "Not even a minute in and you're already fantasizing about having sex with the new Spanish teacher?"
"I am not," she hissed, knowing that the teacher was still staring their way. "Shut up!"
Reid sat back in his seat and smiled at the bickering his two friends were doing. When it wasn't him and Derek, he liked when there was fighting.
Penelope smiled wide. "You like her. You like her like her."
"I will stab you, I swear," she growled, grabbing her pen from her backpack and pointing it at the younger girl. "Shut it."
Frowning, Penelope turned back to look at the friend who sat behind her. "She likes her."
Reid immediately nodded his head in agreement. "Totally likes her."
