"What time is dinner tonight baby boy?" Tyler shrugged at Pogue clearly having never thought to ask his parents.

"No idea, I figure we'll change, grab clothes for tomorrow and head over. I know Reid's parents are coming over too." The other four nodded agreeing before meeting up with the other two girls.

"Pogue do you want to go to a movie tonight? Sara and I saw that there's a new romantic comedy out?"

"Sorry baby it's guys' night tonight." Kate pouted while Sara tried to make nice and smiled at Izzy.

"Do you want to come with us Izzy?" The boys laughed while Izzy took a cheap shot at Caleb.

"See I told you guys we should have changed the name once we turned 12. Sorry Sara, I'm actually with them tonight as well it's a guys plus Isabelle night tonight. We've got family dinner then we'll probably crash there."

"Pogue you still haven't introduced me properly to your parents yet!" Kate wined while Isabelle rolled her eyes and answered for him.

"His parents are still travelling around Africa for the next month they're not here anyways." Kate glared at Pogue for the fact that once again Isabelle knew more about her boyfriend than herself. Pogue sighed wrapping his arm around his girlfriend and setting off.

At dinner that night the five teens sat around the table being questioned about the new school year. Even Evelyn made it out for dinner.

"Isabelle what about you? Are you enjoying everything?" Izzy nodded her head telling Mrs. Simms all about her Calculus class.

"Oh Reid you're so lucky to have snatched this one, she's a keeper." Isabelle blushed while Mrs. Garwin winked from across the table.

"Mom seriously." Reid bit out knowing Isabelle hadn't been too happy with him lately as he'd been hooking up with Tracey Gilbor. He steered the conversation towards Caleb's birthday and both of their new girlfriends. The three ladies chattered on while the five teens made their way down to the home theatre.

"Sure you didn't want to mention to your mom about Tracey Gilbor, I'm sure she'd love her I mean she's not bad for a slut."

"Oh and what about that Chase kid? Last night you two didn't take your hands off of each other. You've been flirting like crazy." Isabelle glared at Reid not needing to say how she'd never been with anyone but him.

Reid sighed and went to wrap his arm around the girl only to have her plant herself between Tyler and Pogue.

"Chill, its guy's night, let's just have a good time." Thankfully the tensions eased and all five were back to cracking jokes and messing around.

"Hey Izzy, are you coming to Nicki's tonight?" Caleb asked in math that day.

"Oh yeah hopefully it'll be as fun as last night where I'll get to watch Reid hook up with random Public girls. No thanks, I'm just going to stay in and finish up my work." Caleb nodded not moving to make any excuses knowing how Reid had been acting worse than usual with dangling girls in Izzy's face.

They made the motions and finished up their day Izzy heading back to her dorm to start on her work. It was close to 9 when Kira and Aaron came through the door. "Why are you here?"

"I live here Kira or did you forget already."

"Well damn Iz if you wanna join in I'll have no complaints." Izzy scowled at the boy while finishing packing her books and computer into her bag and leaving the room. Slamming her door shut Izzy heard someone call out to her.

"Hey Izzy, what are you up to?" Chase asked as he caught up.

"I just got kicked out of my dorm and I'm not finished my work I was just going to head over to Reid's and Tyler's and finish there."

"I was going to head over to Nicki's, why don't you join for a bit, you've been studying forever." Izzy nodded pulling her car keys from her bag and leading them outside. The two pulled into Nicki's at close to 9:30 and entered the packed building.

"Dance a couple songs with me?" Chase asked and Izzy found herself nodding along. They danced for close to fifteen minutes before Izzy felt her arm being tugged.

"What the hell man? Stay away from my girl." Reid shouted while Tyler pulled Izzy towards their empty alcove near the pool tables.

"Oh so you're too busy to hang out with us, but not when Chase Collins asks you?" Reid spat getting closer.

"You're such a dick Reid!" Izzy punched him in the chest and he grabbed her hands before she could pull back.

"I swear to god Izzy, hit me again and you won't like the consequences." Reid glared down at the small girl aware that his brothers hovered around them blocking them from the other occupants. Izzy ignored his warning and slapped him, too late to realize Reid wasn't joking in the slightest. He slammed her against the bar wall leaning his face close as he pinned her there with his arms.

He kissed her forcefully biting her lips before biting the skin just under the jaw. He continued until she cried out and Caleb and Pogue broke them up pushing them out the back door.

"What the hell Reid!" Caleb yelled.

"Let's be fair here, I wasn't the one who put my hands on her first. She hit me; I simply showed her I wasn't willing to take it."

"Fuck you Reid! You such a god damn pig. I dance with someone and you lose your mind? How many girls have you slept with? All of them?"

"Jealous baby? I can't help that I get a little bored sometimes…" Izzy pushed him backs spitting in his direction as Pogue and Tyler held him back.

"Keep those damn hands to yourself Isabelle. You can hit like one of us, but you sure as hell can't take it like us."

"Oh, like you're so gentle Reid? Give me a break you're always harsh." Reid pushed passed Tyler and Pogue slamming Isabelle into the building ignoring her groan and the three others hovering nearby ready to break it up.

"Trust me baby, if I wanted to hurt you, you'd know it." He punctuated his point with squeezes to her arms before Tyler and Pogue pulled him back as Caleb finally stepped in.

"Take a walk Reid." The three boys disappeared as Caleb and Izzy stood in silence, the latter rubbing her arms and back.

"You brought this all on yourself kid. Was flirting with Chase really worth it? I mean –

"Just get out of my way Caleb I'm not listening to your shit right now."

"What are you going to do Izzy? I assume if you're here that your room is occupied. You can't go back to Pogue's they're renovating, you clearly don't want to be in my presence, and obviously you can't sleep in Reid and Tyler's dorm. I know Reid's been bad lately but be normal about and it and get mad or something. Going and flirting with Chase was a bad idea, you know Reid's temper and-"

"Get out of my way Caleb."

"Where else are you going to go?"

"I do have a house of my own thank you; I don't need nor want your help. I'm done." Izzy pushed Caleb aside and booked it back to her car not stopping for anyone.

Entering the imposing mansion that only housed the caretaker and the maid Izzy climbed the steps to her room breaking into tears as she looked at the bruise on her neck.
