Chapter 5: Embarrassment and Songs
Anne's POV
THWACK!
I yelp in pain as the fist makes contact with my cheek, I'm sent hurtling to the ground and land on my back. I sit up, clutching my cheek, and look up at my tormentors as they laugh, jeer, and scream insults at me.
"Monster!"
"Freak!"
"Emo!"
"Abomination!"
"Ugly!"
"CYCLOPS!"
I clutch my head and look down.
"PLEASE STOP! WHAT HAVE I DONE TO YOU?!" I scream.
Suddenly, I'm pinned down by Josh. He grabs my left arm, grins, and pulls out a switchblade.
"Time for some fun, Cyclops!" He sneers as he drags the blade of the knife down my arm. I scream in pain.
"AGH!"
I hear more laughter. I squeeze my eyes shut.
"SHUT UP!"
I woke up, hyperventilating and sweating when I realized I wasn't being attacked by the bullies, but laying in my bed with my friends. I put my clothes on and walked to the porch when I saw the very person I wanted to talk to: Chris. I walked over to him and nudged his arm, and he looked at me.
"Hey, Anne. What are you doing up?" He asked me.
I sighed. "I couldn't sleep." I lied, something I hated doing to anyone, especially the boy I loved. He just nodded in understanding but I mentally kicked myself in the ass. I then looked back inside the cabin and smiled a little.
"I'm glad Tess and Emily are here with us." I said. "I'm not." He joked and I playfully punched his arm while giggling.
/The Next Morning\
Chris and I walked with Clem over to Nick and Pete since Pete offered for her to go with them to check the fish traps.
"Are you sure you want me to come, Pete?" She asked him.
"I don't see why not." He replied as I knelt down to her.
"Besides, I think you could use a little space. Get away from all the drama we've had recently." I told her.
"Nick, come talk to me for a sec." Chris said. The two walked away from us, and I couldn't help but worry.
Chris's POV
I finally stopped walking and turned to coldly stare at Nick.
"Anything happens to that girl, you're done. Clear?" I sternly asked. He nodded, not at all afraid of me, since he knew I was talking about Clem. I then started to walk away when Nick stopped me.
"Yeah?" I asked.
"Do you think your half-sister likes me?" He asked, and I rose an eyebrow.
"Which one?" I asked, since I had two half-sisters.
"Tess." He answered. I was taken aback a little, but smirked. "I'm sure she does. Last night, she and Emily kept talking about you." I replied.
When that was done, Clem walked with Nick and Pete, while Anne and I walked back to the cabin.
"What did Nick ask you?" She asked.
"He wanted to know what Tess thought of him." I replied.
"I think she likes him." She said, and I nodded in agreement. "Oh my God. Last night, she and Emmy wouldn't shut up about how cute they said he was." I said, earning a chuckle from her.
We made our way back into the cabin when I saw Tess and Emily were finally awake and talking to Sarah. I smirked as I realized a way to really embarrass Tess. I walked over to her and sat beside her.
"How'd it feel having sex with Nick in your dream last night?" I whispered in her ear and she immediately started blushing a deep crimson. Sarah, Anne, and Emily looked at her to see her wide eyed and blushing deep crimson.
"Tess, what happened?" Emily asked.
"He found out I hooked up with Nick in my dream last night." She replied, making everyone, including me, go wide eyed. "You actually did?" I asked, completely shocked. Tess then glared at me.
Anne's POV
"You wanna run now or later?" She asked Chris and he smirked.
"Preferably now." He said before he took off. She then screamed and started running after him. Sarah went wide eyed as Tess was mad at her half-brother.
"Are they usually like that?" Sarah asked and Emily and I nodded our heads.
"Oh, yeah. Any chance he has to embarrass one of us, he'll take it." Emily said.
"Suddenly, I'm grateful I'm an only child." I joked. Sarah and Emily laughed while I chuckled.
Everyone came running into the common room after hearing Tess scream. "What happened?" Carlos asked. "Chris embarrassed Tess." Emily replied. I then explained what he did to embarrass her.
"Wow. I never knew he could do that." Luke said.
"Oh, he's done worse. When he and I were at home, before hell broke loose, he snuck into my room and stole my favorite bra. I looked around my room frantically until I saw him standing in my doorway, smirking. I then realized what happened to my bra and demanded he tell me what he did with it. He then took off running and I chased him down. He ran all around the house with my bra in his hand." Emily said.
"Yeah, and then she tackled me and knocked my ass out and took the bra back. Sorry about that, by the way, Emmy." Chris said.
I gasped when I saw he had a black eye. "Jesus, Tess." I said. "Hey, he needed to be taught a lesson." Tess said. Sarah then looked to Chris.
"Can you sing?" She asked him and he flashed a new level of red.
"A- A little." He replied sheepishly and I scoffed.
"Are you kidding me? Most everybody loved you three singing." I said, making the three half-siblings blush like crazy.
"Sing something." Sarah said.
"Okay. We'll do a song the three of us love." Chris said as everyone waited.

To biggie to be here stressin'
I'm thinkin' I love the thought of you

And the best thing now
Is probably for you to exit
I let you go
Let you back

After they were done singing, we all decided to wait until morning to look for the others, since they hadn't returned yet. We all went to our rooms and fell asleep.
That's chapter five. Review and I'll post more chapters.
