"Reid? Reid?" I ask worriedly. Where has he gone? He couldn't have just left me alone, could he?

"Boo." Reid whispers into my ear, sending chills down my spine. I turn into the direction of Reid's voice and slap him. "Hey, calm down batty. It was just a joke." Reid steps back.

"Batty?" I question, looking near him. "That's the worst I've heard. Thanks." I say, insulted. I turned and walked into the opposite direction, hands out to feel where I am going. The students at Spencer's Academy always moved aside if I walked the halls without Reid. They were afraid that my 'brother' Caleb Danvers and Pogue Parry would beat them to a pulp. I smirk to myself as I hear Reid run towards me.

"Baie! Baie! Please, I'm sorry! I really, truly am sorry!" He calls, trying to catch up. Shaking my head, still mad might I add, I turn towards his voice, letting my eyes fill with fake tears.

"Oh, shut up Reid! We-"I was cut off in mid-sentence by Reid's hands on my shoulders, turning me in his actual direction. I sigh and shake my head slightly, making a single tear run down my cheek. "We all know that it is lies. Please, just go." I say, turning again, wanting to just leave. Yes, I faked crying but I was truly hurt. How could Reid, my Reid, say such things? I understand, 'batty' seems rather childish, harmless. Yet, the name calling was too much for me. Everyone had done it, I least expected it from one of my boys. I turn the corner and bump into someone, a girl.

"I'm so sorry." I say, wiping my tear. Suddenly, Kate's laugh reaches my ears.

"Baie sweetie, it's ok. Wait, what's wrong? What did you wipe off of your face? Did someone hurt you? Point me to the bitch." Kate rambles. I smirk and shake my head.

"Oh, it's just Reid. Him and his god damned mouth." I explain, leaning against the wall, staring straight ahead. I hear Kate's shocked gasp, as if she knew something I didn't. I looked over to her, questions written all over my face. "What is Kate?" I ask, knowing there's always a reason between Kate and her gasps. Kate waits a second before clearing her throat and walking closer.

"Nothing sweetie. Just shock that Reid made you cry, that's all." She explains, but I know that she's holding out on something. Not wanting to confront her at this moment, I drop the subject. "Hey, I think I know where Tyler and Pogue are, want me to take you?" She asks, grabbing my hand. I nod and smile, knowing that I troubled her with something. Kate just sighed happily and led me down the hall. She then suddenly took a sharp right and an immediate left. I hear her opening a big door and the scent of chlorine fills my nose. I pull Kate closer, afraid that I might fall in, just like I did two years ago. Kate put her hand around my waist in a protective manner. I heard chuckles and full out laughs from some guys. Not my guys though. Then, I heard it. My boys. I heard Pogue laugh, that weird crackling laugh. Then came Caleb, the smooth rumble, like thunder. I heard someone either stomp their foot or fall and Tyler's laugh erupt. Tyler and his girlish, squeaky laughter. Then, another thud, closer this time. Kate came to a stop and brought me to her front.

"Well, we're here." She announces. I look towards her and smirk sarcastically.

"No shit. I thought I heard ghosts." I smirk lovingly at my best friend and stand there, petrified. Someone, Tyler I presume, must have noticed because suddenly, hands were on my shoulders and I was pulled into a shirtless embrace. As the person gave me a hug, all I smelt was Phoenix Axe cologne and chlorine. The scent of the one and only, Tyler Simms. I slapped his ass and pushed against my brother's chest.

"Hey! That's merchandise! That and you're my sister!" Tyler yells, not letting me go. I push against his chest more, hoping I could break free and get some air. Tyler's arms did let go, but his footing slipped. Suddenly, Tyler is falling and pulling me with him. And with a splash, Tyler has officially became asshole of the year. As I fall, I feel numerous hands trying to grab me, but miss, only to graze my skin. Suddenly, I'm submerged into the cold water. As my head hits the concrete, everything goes black instead of the usual brightness. I feel the water around me move, but my body keeps sinking. I try my hardest to move, to breathe, but my body won't move. Suddenly, I feel the water move again, as if someone or multiple some ones jumped in. Hands grab my arm and I'm pulled to the surface. Gasping, I lay there and look up. I slowly open my eyes as someone shakes me. Slowly, the shaking gets more intense.

"Baie, Baie! Baie, can you hear me?! Baie!" Someone keeps asking, over and over. Yes, I'm fine. Quit yelling I want to answer back, but my brain isn't telling my mouth to move. I move my head to the voice, only to hear the voice grow a little louder and grow a little impatient.

"Baie! Answer me, god dammit! You're scaring me!" Reid says again.

I cough and slowly sit up. After my little coughing fit, I turn towards where Reid was, knowing he hasn't moved.

"I'm fine, you asshole. Now, can one of you please take me to my dorm? I need a shower." I say, looking around me.

"I'll take you." Caleb answers, grabbing me and picking me up bridal style. I put my head into his chest, knowing he won't think anything of it. Caleb is my older brother. I hear the boys exchange disapproving words to each other and slaps being given. My head whips up and I point to the slaps. Caleb sighs knowing that I hate it when they boys take my job in physical discipline. Caleb walks over and sets me down, away from the edge probably. He takes my small hand into his huge one and leads me to the boys. As we stop, I hear his thunderous chuckle.

"So," I begin, dropping Caleb's hand and putting a hand on my hip, a warning for them to not lie. "who hit who?" I ask. The boys shuffle restlessly. As I grow impatient, I clear my throat and stumble forwards slightly, hoping it's the right way. "I'll ask again. Who. Hit. Who?" Again, no answers. Finally, Kate peeps up.

"Pogue hit Tyler, then Reid. Tyler for making you fall, Reid for making you cry." She explains. Pogue gives a heavily sarcastic thanks to her and he steps forward and grabs my hand.

"Sorry. I just had to. You're my sister and Reid made you cry, and Tyler almost made you drown. And I thought that you couldn't hear me from so far away." He confessed guiltily. I nod slightly and turn around. Caleb picks me up and starts to head out.

"It's ok Pogue. It's understandable and I'm glad that you didn't lie. Okay, I'll talk to you all at the bonfire!" I call over Caleb's shoulder. Caleb just laughs. "What?" I question but he just shakes his head.

"Nothing Baby Baie, nothing at all." Is his only response.
