A/N: Okay, this prologue is a bit action packed and longer so it might get you excited for the actual story(and it might also make up for the somewhat boring and uneventful intros I came up with). Once again, I'd like to thank EsaEnai for all their help! R&R!
Prologue: Alex & Benji Denton
Alex and Benji Denton sat in their Aunt Flo's floral inspired living room with the television turned up high. They were watching reruns of America's Next Top Model. On their laps were huge light pink bowls of Apple Jacks, their favorite cereal, and in their hands were silver spoons, which were clattering away ungracefully with the ceramic bowls. The boys had quite the obsession with food and they had the ability to out-eat coked-out truckers but somehow they managed to maintain being skinny as poles. Their Aunt would've been prepared to bet that they had black holes for stomachs.
The air was perfumed with a slightly irritating Jasmine smell coming from the scented candles placed all around the house. The transparent glass door that lead to the lawn gnome plagued backyard was open and the white and gold curtains, hand embroidered by their own old Auntie Flo, were fluttering in and out of the house due to the slightly windy autumn day. Benji, clad in his favorite navy blue hoodie, shivered a bit. He never did like the cold, unlike his twin.
"So," Benji said, with a mouthful of cereal, "Her." He pointed at the television screen where an ethnic model, slightly on the short side was sauntering down the catwalk. The twins were playing a game where they'd point out a girl and say whether they'd get with her or not.
"Nope." Alex shook his head and tiny drops of milk splashed on Benji's face. He gave his twin a nod before wiping the drops off his eyebrow making Alex chuckled.
After he had gulped down the spoonful, Benji pointed at another model. She was Asian and had long, thin legs and a curvy body.
"Yep."
Benji gave his twin an approving nod before they continued digging in.
Benji pointed at a blonde model with stunning blue eyes and blonde hair styled in a bob.
"Uh. Nope." Alex shook his head making his slightly shaggy dark brown hair ruffle.
"Wha… Why?" Benji questioned. He thought she was attractive. "What's wrong with her?"
To which Alex bluntly replied, "Her gums. The Sheila looks like a horse."
Benji's jaw dropped. He quickly regained his composure before he replied. "What if she's got a great personality? Or…" Alex raised a questioning eyebrow at him, urging him to go on.
"Great bazoongas?" Benji added with a wink.
"A horse is a horse, baby brother." Alex laughed, "Stop being a poof!"
"You're a poof!" shot back Benji. He winced after a spoon almost hit him in the eye. Alex gave his brother a cheeky look, making Benji gulp. In a matter of seconds, Alex had managed to pin down his twin on the floor. "Who's a poof, now?" Alex chuckled, as he masterfully continued to restrain his fidgeting brother.
"You are!" Benji hissed, not wanting to loose this war, as he tried to break away from Alex's deadly grip.
"I won't let you go until you say that you're a poof!" Benji's brother snapped back, unable to conceal his laughter. "Say it!"
"NEVER!"
"Don't make this any harder on yourself, Benjamin Denton!" Alex warned, "Say it!"
"I WILL NEVER SAY IT, ALEXANDER DENTON! SO LET ME GO!"
It was at that precise moment their halfway deaf Aunt decided to show up and play the role of the concerned adult.
"WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU TWO DOING?" She fumed but she didn't wait for an answer. Actually, the old woman started to rant after she had froze the twins in place. They were more surprised than fearful, to be honest. Alex and Benji never expected her to hear them. Aunt Flo was ancient and had to use not one, but two hearing aids. Granted, they were a tad bit loud. The neighbors might've been calling 911 as the Denton family spoke. "YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE! AREN'T YOU EXCITED FOR YOUR FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL IN AMERICA?" at that point Aunt Flo wasn't screaming because she was angry. She was actually quite excited for the twins to be starting their junior year in an American High School instead of the school they had left behind in Australia.
Alex jumped off his brother and brushed the imaginary dust from his clothes. Benji extended his hand to his brother, signaling him to help him up. When Alex didn't oblige, Benji let out a faux dramatic sigh as he got up. "Aren't you excited to shave that mustache of yours?" said Benji Denton to the elderly woman.
"WHAT?" Aunt Flo asked in her wobbly, old voice, "I DIDN'T QUITE CATCH THAT, DEARIES. WOULD YOU MIND REPEATING WHAT YOU SAID?"
"Aunt Flo," Alex said with his trademark smirk that reached up to his ear, "He said he's up the spout with a lizard baby!"
"NO, I ALREADY ATE. GET GOING TO SCHOOL YOU TWO!"
After they grabbed their skateboards, Alex and Benji were headed to McKinley High, laughing along the way at how comic their slightly senile Aunt was.
A/N: Okay! I hope you liked them! I want to know whether you think that I perfectly portrayed/introduced those boys.
Here're some translations to some Aussie slang:
Sheila=Woman
Bazoongas= breasts
Poof= gay guy, mostly used by teens whenever they're joking around.
Up the spout= pregnant
I mostly used the net with the meanings of the words EsaEnai gave me. So, please correct me if I'm wrong with the definitions.
Anywhoo! Next up, we'll be meeting yet another character. Here's a hint. She's female. That's all I'm about to give:P
ALSO, GUYS CAN YOU PLEASE PM YOUR OC'S CELEB-LOOK-A-LIKE? It'd be really helpful! :)
thanks!
