Hearing Ma shouting Daniel's name I grinned as I washed the shampoo out of my hair, I always showered before Daniel could so the hot water would cut off for him.
Getting out of the shower I pulled on my robe before opening the door, I jumped seeing Daniel outside of the door but then laughed hysterically when I saw his face he pushed me out of the way slamming the door in between us.
I laughed all the way to my room wondering how he was going to cover this up; I turned to my wardrobe which Ma had packed with all of my clothes for me.
When I was ready, I packed my backpack with my sports kit the school had sent for us and walked out into the kitchen where mom was cooking happily.
"Morning ma" I greeted pleasantly as she put food on the plate for me and kissing my head "Morning sweetheart, you look nice" I smiled at her innocently munching on a piece of toast waiting for Daniel to appear.
"Daniel!" Ma called out as Daniel came out of his room dressed for school with a pair of sunglasses on "Morning honey, how was the party?" she asked us as I looked at Daniel with a raised eyebrow.
"It was okay" he muttered quietly making our mom laugh "Must have been more than okay. I didn't hear either of you come in" I smirked knowing why she didn't hear us.
"Any friend material?" she inquired as I laughed out loud "Oh yeah Daniel made loads of friends" Ma looked at me, but Daniel just turned and grabbed his bag "I got to go."
Mom looked unhappy at this "Sit down and eat first" she said putting some scrambled egg on his plate as Daniel grabbed a piece of toast "I'm not hungry."
Getting up I followed Daniel to the door ready to tease him mercilessly "Do me a favor. Take off the glasses" I choked on my breath as Daniel looked at ma shocked "Why?".
Ma just smiled at him, but I knew she wouldn't be smiling for long. "Because I asked you to. I want to see your baby browns" I felt a jealous streak go through me my eyes are blue like my dad's, mom never asks to see my eyes.
I felt Daniel stiffen next to me "Ma come on with the baby browns" he pleaded, but mom started to look suspicious "Are you on something?" I snorted in amusement our mother thinks Daniel is on drugs; she is definitely a stereotypical neurotic mother.
"Yeah I'm on Minute Maid," he said trying to open the door, but mom just wouldn't give up "Why hide your eyes?" Daniel looked like he was struggling to lie to ma "I'm not."
Ma didn't look like she believed him and I wasn't surprised my brother is a shitty liar "Take off the glasses" Daniel tried arguing with her until she snapped "Now!".
I lifted my hand up and whipped off his glasses making mom gasp in shock "My God! How did that happen?" Ma ran over and started looking at the bruises that covered Daniel's face.
"I hit a curb with my bike. I wore the glasses so you wouldn't worry. It looks worse than it feels" Daniel said touching his swollen eye and the bruises as Mom brushed his hands away from his face "Don't do that. Can you see? You want to stay home?" she asked lovingly.
"I want to stay home," I said waving my hand into the air, mom shook her head at me and looked back at 'her boy' seemingly ignoring me "We've got to go," I told mom stoically and before Daniel could answer I grabbed him pushing him through the door to catch the bus.
If I had to go to school so did he.
I walked off the bus noticing Daniel locking up his bike and walked towards him; I still hadn't forgiven him for calling me a bitch but getting his ass kicked in front of a girl he likes was good enough for me.
I stood next to him quietly, but he hadn't noticed me he was looking in the opposite direction, I looked over his shoulder to see what caught his attention and I saw those Cobra Kai's "Don't get in their way, and you'll be fine" Daniel jumped at the sound of my voice.
I grimaced at his face "You look like shit" he snorted shaking his head "Thanks sis" I sighed helping him with his bike "Daniel why don't you listen to me?" he looked at me seriously.
"Ma let dad 'help' her and look where that got us" my grip tightened on the bike, and I puffed in anger "Don't compare me to him" Daniel looked scared like he always does when he compares me to our father.
"Hey, the karate kid" I blanched hearing Freddy and the other guys' voices from yesterday they were not in my friend book, to say the least. Daniel tried to smile at them but was still upset.
Chuckie started making some 'karate' moves at Daniel "Let's see the moves. He knows how to get his butt kicked" I watched my brother'#s face and just saw embarrassment as they laughed.
I scanned the crowd of people coming nearer to us to see what was happening. I was surprised to see the Cobra Kai looking at us, looks like my twin was the new circus monkey in town.
"I already know that move," Freddy mocked as Daniel ran of towards school in humiliation, but that didn't stop Freddy from laughing, I grabbed him by the collar and pushed him up against the wall "Hey Kat, what are you doing," he asked shakily.
I just looked at Freddie in disgust "My brother may have had his ass kicked yesterday, but that will be nothing compared to what I will do to you if I ever go near him again."
Feeling someone trying to pull me away from Freddy who was now trembling from the grip I had on him I narrowed my eyes at him "Got it?" I asked him dangerously as he just nodded quickly.
Releasing him from my grip I walked away leaving everyone around me whispering, as if I cared, now they all knew I was stronger than I looked and I knew that was going to help me in a school like this.
The incident had traveled fast around the school, and people were either talking to me, avoiding me or looking at me like I was crazy. I looked down at the schedule the lovely receptionist had given me and noticed it was time for P.E. Oh Joy.
In the girls changing room I switched into the sports uniform they had sent it was a green t-shirt, grey shorts, and a hoodie if I needed it but today I was just wearing the t-shirt, shorts with some knee-length socks and black trainers.
I strolled over to where Daniel was kicking a ball around "Hey" He mumbled as he passed me the ball, which we started kicking between us slowly neither of us talking for ages until he looked up at me "I heard what you did."
I wasn't shocked it's what most people have been talking about all day "Thanks" now that is what shocked me; usually, he hates when I do stuff like that. I shrugged my shoulders at him "You're my brother, I know we hate each other but you are still my twin."
We stayed in comfortable silence until Ali bounced up to us and grimaced looking at Daniel's eye "Hi" she peered at me uncomfortable obviously not wanting to be around me, I sighed and wandered off a little getting the unsubtle cue.
I heard someone walking behind me and turned to see the Cobra Kai's standing there all smiling at me "Hey" I just nodded at the blond wondering why they were here "I'm Johnny, this is Bobby, Tommy, Dutch, and Jimmy."
"Kat," I responded snorting at Dutch's name "Your parents named you Dutch" he looked annoyed that I asked "Your parents named you Kat?" he replied sarcastically making me grin.
"No. My dad wanted to name me Satan's Spawn, but my mother thought Katherine sounded cuter." I told Dutch with a smirk and heard the rest of the Cobra Kai laugh while Dutch nodded at me a look of surprise and respect.
"So you're the ones who beat up my brother yesterday" Johnny looked shocked, "Wait he's your brother" I nodded in a yes motion "Well twin brother to be more specific" they all looked shocked, we don't act like we're siblings.
"If you're twins why'd you tell me to kick his ass?"Johnny asked confused; I glanced over to see Daniel looking at me and trying to talk to Ali at the same time "because he deserved it" I could see Johnny following my gaze.
"So what did she do to make you so angry that you made my brother eat sand?" I urged kicking the ball around as Johnny looked at me with an amused smile "It doesn't matter now" he replied as he kicked the ball from my feet.
"Hey!" I shouted chasing him and the rest of the Cobra Kai's as they teased me with the football, kicking it to each other as I ran between them. We joked around and talked for a bit where I found out they're actually not that bad.
I heard a loud whistle ring out stopping us all just as Dutch reached out to grab me "Soccer Tryouts!" I heard coach Carlson shout out as Coach Ellington called for the football tryouts.
I turned to the guys knowing they were trying out for the teams "Good Luck!" Johnny smiled at me as he jogged backward. I giggled at him but stopped when I could see Daniel glaring at me from next to coach Carlson. Whoops.
