A/N : Glad to see all your awesome reviews!

Liz's POV

"Congratulations you all passed the safety test." Ms. Peterson says to us. "Now we can begin this great semester."

Everyone was excited; today we would finally begin home economics. We already had the first recipe that we will attempt at the end of the week written on the white board. It was going to be pancakes. I was good at making pancakes, having cooking from my mom at the age of 12. They were simple to make, as the recipe was basic.

"Now ladies and gentlemen, I need your attention up here." Ms. Peterson tells us.

Then Ms. Peterson reviews the recipe with us, going over how to make the pancakes step by step.

Since I knew the recipe, by heart. I divided my attention: giving half of it to Ms. Peterson and the other half to Christian.

Christian was wearing a green quarter sleeve Henley with light was jeans and a pair of converse. He listened as Ms. Peterson talked about how much of what ingredient to use, listening intently and jotting down notes, like everyone at my table. I watched as he looked up every now and then from his notebook to the white board, making sure that he had everything written down.

Well isn't he just perfect. I wish I was his girl. Wouldn't that be nice?! I can imagine how heads would turn as we walk through the halls, hand in hand. The looks on all the female faces as he gives me a kiss before opening the door for me.

I guess I was in deep daydream mode, because I hardly realized that Christian was looking at me.

I blushed and smiled at him upon realization.

He smiled and then turned his head back to Ms. Peterson.

Everything would be perfect, if we end up having a relationship that is. The only thing that is a concern would be my Dad. Although I appreciate the fact that he is looking out for me, I sometimes wish he wasn't so overprotective. Its like he doesn't trust me around boys. Its not like I will do something stupid; I already learned my lesson with Tom. But in my defense, we were just caught up in the moment, its not like we would have sex right then and there. That would be so awkward.

Last night, I got really mad. I felt like Dad was making an assumption about Christian that was not true at all. He has this idea that every teenage boy is only looking out for sex; which isn't true. Not all are like that. And the fact that he did not want me to potentially have a relationship with Christian, made it hard for me to even sit at the dinner table. I hated how my father was being unsupportive of me. He didn't even care about how I feel.

Dad came into my room, with a piece of lemon merengue pie as a peace offering. He said that he will do his best to loosen his protective reigns and that he cares about me very much, he is just being a loving and caring father, and blah, blah, blah…. As much as I love you, I know that Mom sent you over to deliver a slice of pie. I know that you aren't going to loosen your reigns so there is really no point in this conversation, Dad.

Instead of saying that, I just smiled and accepted the slice of pie, mostly because I was kind of hungry.


"I hope that there won't be any mishaps when we make pancakes." Christian says as we walk out of our math class.

Luck for me, we didn't have a pop quiz today, which meant we might have it tomorrow or the day after that.

"I can't wait. "I say. "I love making pancakes."

"Well that's good, maybe you can teach me a few things." Christian says.

"Of course." I say, as we walk up the steps toward my locker. Christian's locker is on the opposite side of the hall from where mine is. "Then you will know more than just how to boil water."

"Hey, boiling water is a big deal for beginners as myself." Christian says in a defensive yet playful manner. "It's a miracle that I know how to do that without any problems."

"That is very true. " I say, laughing. "You deserve an A for effort."

"Why, thank you. "He says. "That would be quite an honor."

He then heads off to his locker and I go to mine. I grab my history book and my notebook for note taking. Christian joins me soon after and we walk to the cafeteria. Its breaktime and the place is crowded with students trying to get something to eat before heading to their next class.

We talk about school and what we have planned for the weekend. I wasn't sure what I was going to do. Christian says he hopes to go to the gym, and hang out with his sister Mia. He is very fond of his little sister and it seems to me that he is very protective over her.

"That's cute that you are an overprotective big brother." I tell him.

"Well, she's my only sister so I believe it's my job to look out for her." Christian says. "My older brother is just the same way."

I kind of feel for Mia. Except in my case I have an overprotective father.

We continue to talk about other things, until I see my sister Ana. She is sitting on a bench with Kate when I see her. I smile and wave. I could have walked over there, but Kate is with her. Kate doesn't like me. Once upon a time she did, but that all changed. We were chill, we would talk. And one day, she admitted that she liked Tom, to me , like out of the blue. Tom was a guy friend of mine before he was my boyfriend. What I didn't know was Tom liked me. Tom asked me out two days later, and I accepted wholeheartedly. I wanted to give him a chance; I wanted to see if there could be something more between us than just the friendship that we had. It turned out that we did. Everything was great and then Kate found out. She wasn't happy. From that point on, she didn't want to speak with me. Even when Tom and I broke up, Kate still refused to talk to me. When she was with Ana, she always tried her best to seem as though nothing happened. She put on a brave face when I was around. She would just smile, but it was more of a forced grin.

Ana doesn't know about this and I don't think that Kate had told her what happened. Why she hasn't said anything to her best friend is the question… could it be embarrassment? Doesn't want Ana to get caught in the middle of this? I don't really know.

"Oh look it's your sister." Christian says.

"Yes that's her."I say.

"I didn't think you were related until you said that you two were sisters." Christian tells me. "Definitely opposites."

"We get that a lot." I say.

"I bet." He says. "You two are so different."

"Is that a good thing?" I ask him.

"Well yeah, you are very outgoing while she is more reserved." Christian says.

"Yes, Ana likes to keep to herself." I tell her. "Its hard to get something out of her."

"Well that's a good thing. That eliminates the need for unnecessary gossip." Christian says.

"True, but that's not always a good thing." I tell him. "I mean, for one thing, I have never seen or heard her talking to a guy, she hasn't brought a guy home ever. She could even be lesbian."

"Or she could just be shy around guys." Christian suggests.

"Even with shyness, you can still talk to guys and about guys." I say. "And I heard none of that from her."

Christian didn't say anything to that and we continued to walk and talk about everything and anything that we could think of. It was so easy to talk to him. I can literally talk to him forever.

The bell soon rings and we are off to our next class, U.S History.

Christian's POV

I cannot believe what I had just heard. The beautiful brunette that I saw at the door, who just so happens to be Liz's fraternal twin, is lesbian.

Well isn't life unfair….

Liz wanted another tutoring session so I decided to have her over my house for tutoring. This is because I couldn't stand being in the same house as her sister. I got really distracted last time when she sat a few feet from where Liz and I were, when I was over their house for tutoring. I did my best to not look over her way as often as I did. I was there for tutoring and not to check out Liz's sister. But it was so tempting, so I gave in once or twice….maybe even more than that.


"Anything you want me to bring, dear?" My mom asks me. I decided that the best place to have the tutoring session would be in the living room. I would have done it in my bedroom, but then Liz might get the wrong idea.

For one thing, I don't want to get a girl to bed without getting into a relationship with her first. Im not like most guys. I don't fuck and duck. A woman should be loved, and therefore when the time is right, I will make love to that one special girl, whomever it maybe.

"I don't need anything, Mom."I say with a smile.

"Okay, just let me know." She says and then leaves to go to the kitchen.

I bring down my math textbook, my notebook, a few pencils, and an eraser from my room to the coffee table in our living room. Everything is set for tutoring. I just have to wait for Liz to show up.

I flip through my math notebook, trying to see what section we should start first, when my big brother enters the living room. Elliot goes to Harvard University, doing a double major in architecture and business. School hasn't started for him yet, hence why he is still home.

"Hey lil bro." He says.

"Hi Elliot." I say, still flipping through my notebook.

"What's all this?" He says, gesturing at the materials on the coffeetable.

"Im going to tutor a girl from school." I say, looking up at him.

"Oooo, a girl." Elliot says, teasingly. "Is she hot?" Of course you would ask that….

"I guess." I say.

"Christian, she is either hot or she isn't. There is no in between answers." Elliot says, taking a seat next to me.

"She's pretty, I would admit that, but I like her sister." I tell him.

"Then go after her sister, lil bro." Elliot says.

"There is a problem though." I tell him.

"She has a boyfriend?" Elliot asks.

"No, in fact, Liz thinks she's lesbian." I say.

"What! That's such a loss." Elliot says. "I hate when that happens, they are smoking hot but they would rather have pussy than a dick."

I laugh.

"Well then you have this chick to go after." Elliot says. "That's your plan B since plan A has failed."

"Plan A hasn't failed. Liz said that she thinks that her sister is lesbian." I say. "For all we know, she may not be lesbian at all."

"Oh my little brother, if her sister thinks she is lesbian, chances are she is. I find it cute that you think you still have hope. " Elliot says, giving me a pat on the back.

What if he's right? What if I have no shot with Ana because she is in fact lesbian?

The doorbell rings.

"Gonna get the door. I wanna see what you're working with." Elliot says.

Its not long before Liz walks in the room, carrying her tutoring materials in her hands.

Elliot is behind her, giving me the thumbs up.

I conceal my laughter and gesture Liz to the coffeetable.

"I see you stole my idea." She says, playfully teasing me.

"Well I wouldn't say that." I say, smiling.

She took a seat and we soon started our tutoring session.


"First we need to put the equation in y=mx+b form. Which lucky for us it already is in that form." Liz says. "So now…we have to make a table of points."

"I suggest using 0,1,-1 because they are easier to use." I tell her.

She takes my advice and finds the ys. She then uses the points she found to draw a line on the graph.

"Good job." I say. "Well that's the end of our tutoring."

"Wow, where did the time go?" Liz asks, closing her math textbook.

"Well it's a good thing. You don't have to spend another hour doing something that you don't like to do." I say to her. Knowing how much she hates math, I thought she would skip out of this place.

"I know that, but that means I don't get to see you until tomorrow." She says, slightly disappointed.

"Oh, don't worry. Tomorrow will be here before you know it." I say,laughing.

She smiles and I walk her to the door, being a polite human being that I am. Just then, my sister Mia was walking down the stairs.

"Christian, are you not going to introduce me to your friend?" She asks.

I introduce them.

"You're pretty, Liz." Mia says. "And I love your style. We should hit up the mall sometime."

"I have to warn you though, it will be countless hours of shopping." I add.

"That would be awesome." Liz says. "I love that idea."

"Perfect, well seeing that you are leaving, I will just have to ask Christian for your number, which Im sure he will give me." Mia says, then looks at me. "Right, big brother?"

"Yes, Mia." I say.

"And I know its too soon to say, but you two make the cutest couple." Mia says, in her usual giddy manner.

Liz laughs and blushes. "Well we are just friends for now, but maybe sometime along the way, it could be a possibility."

I don't say anything. This wasn't supposed to be happening at all. This was all my fault. I created a monster. I shouldn't have instilled a false hope in Liz's head about a future relationship with me. But at the same time, it could be a possibility, with Ana being out of the picture.

A part of me doesn't want to believe that Ana is lesbian, but at the same time, maybe Elliot is right. Liz is her fraternal twin sister. Don't twins just know things about one another without actually asking them? Is that a thing?

I give Liz a friendly side hug before she leaves my house.

"She is such a nice girl." Mia says. "She's also pretty and has a nice sense of style. I don't know what you are thinking, but that girl is perfect for you."

"I don't know what Im thinking either." I mumble and walk up the stairs to my room.

I apologize for the relatively short chapter. I was looking through the comments and seeing that everyone was eager for an update, I decided to give you one.

Im also currently working on updates for my other two stories, so please be patient.
