This was gonna be longer but I decided to split it in two but it will probably take a while for me to upload the chapter.

Secret

Alan looked around at his brothers the people who had practically raised him after his mum died and then looked to his friends who had stopped him from cutting or falling in to a pit of despair after his brothers forgot about him.

"I choose…" he repeated wondering how he was going to make this decision.

"Alan wait you don't have to choose between us!" Sean said.

"Yeah if this is what your brothers want then we'll just work together on the teams we are on and we won't be friends." Russ added but he looked really mad.

"Yeah it's for the best!" Charity said but she looked like she was going to cry.

Alan and his friends hugged each other and after his friends left Alan mumbled, "I'm going to bed!"

And when he got to his dorm he buried his head in his pillow and cried not caring who saw or heard him, he was hurting too much.

The end!

Ha, ha just kidding but I bet you believed me for a bit there didn't you!

Scott ran his hands through his hair as he watched Alan sit on his bed with his arms wrapped around his stomach.

"Allie what's wrong?" Virgil asked as he sat down next to his baby brother. "Is it about your friends?"

Alan sighed, "Well it's just before we became friends I was on my own a lot because Fermat was always at study groups or tutoring."

"How about you tell us how you met them?" Gordon asked and Alan smiled.

"Well it all started with two of us failing science…"

Flashback

Sean groaned he couldn't believe it, he had to get a tutor and the kid was younger than him!

He walked down the corridor to the kid's room and saw a younger boy walking down from the opposite way, he didn't think anything of it till him and the kid stopped at the same door.

"Please don't tell me you are also getting tutoring from this kid!" the boy nodded and knocked on the door.

The door opened and a skinny boy smiled at them, "Hi I'm Russell! You must Be Sean and Alan."

Both boys nodded and Russell said, "Come in!"

*One hour later*

"And know you should both pass your Exams!" Russell told the boys and they left.

-Line-break-

Two weeks later

Alan sat on the ground leaning against the wall sketching when he heard a scream. He shot up and ran towards it when he got there he recognised the kid who was tutoring him surrounded by a lot of boys. He rushed forward and managed to get rid of them with the help of someone, he didn't know who. Until he turned around.

"Hey!" Sean smiled at Alan.

"Hey!" Alan replied as he pulled Russ to his feet, "And hi to you too."

Russ muttered, "Thanks!" and began to walk off until Sean grabbed his arm.

"And just where do you think you're going?" He asked.

"I don't think you want to be seen with me." He replied. Both boys raised their eyebrows and Russ continued. "Been seen with me is like social death."

"Well since everyone thinks I'm just pretty boy Tracy who's only here because of his dad, I think I'm ok with a little more social death." Alan replied as he grinned.

"Wait your Alan Tracy! Allow me to introduce myself I am Sean Albert Thompson son of Albert Thompson the famous writer. And I also don't care about social death so Russ you're stuck with us." Sean said and both boys grinned at Russ who managed a small smile back.

End flashback

"…and that is how three of us became friends."

"But what about the girl…Chasity was it?" John asked.

Alan smiled "Charity. Wow she is really something. She was one of the first girls at this school and she really knows how to rip up the rule book, I mean her family are really posh but she's more football than ballroom. Anyway we met at soccer try-outs…"

Flashback

Alan and Sean stood side by side examining the people who had come to the try-outs when they heard a gasp and everyone's eyes went wide as they stared at a point behind the boys' heads. The boys turned round and watched as someone else walked on to the pitch. The person walked over to stand with the rest of the people and everyone still stared. The person then rolled their eyes and glared at everyone and asked, "What you never seen a girl before?"

"Well, I've never seen a girl try-out for the soccer team." Jeb the school's idiot (as Alan had dubbed him) replied.

"Well now you're gonna so get used to it." The girl replied.

"Right!" Alan yelled, catching everyone's attention. "We are gonna play two games of ten-a-side."

Twenty minutes later Sean had the team line up so Alan could announce who was in and who wasn't, "Alright as you know me and Sean are on the team so we need the rest of the players and our goalie. So Jameson you're our goalie and Ritchie, Forester, Peterson, Ellis, Campbell, Johnson, Smith, Langer, Williams, Brown, Jones, Miller, Martinez, Lopez, Clark, Young, Hall, Wright, Baker, King and the only girl who turned up you guys are on the team."

Instantly there was up roar especially from Jeb and his gang (as none of them had got on the team).

"QUIET!" Alan and Sean yelled as one and everyone shut up.

"Our decision is final." Alan said.

End Flashback

"That's how we met Charity but we didn't become friends for a long time after that." Alan said.

"How did you become friends?" Scott asked

"Well it was right after a bad game but I suppose the story really starts during the game…

Flashback

"Pass the ball to Charity would ya Brown!" Coach Simpson yelled but Jamie Brown ignored him.

Five minutes later the game ended and the score was eight nil with the other team winning.

"Well that could of gone a lot better." The coach told the team on the bus back to school.

"Well it's not our fault that 'captain Tracy' decided that we need a girl on our team." Most of the team yelled.

After that the rest of the ride went in silence and when they got back to school everyone pushed past Charity so that she tripped and fell on the ground. When Charity looked up she saw a hand being held out to her. She took it and another one took her other arm and helped pulled her up. When she got up she realised it was the two of her team mates (Alan & Sean) and a boy she had seen hanging out with them.

"Hey! Sorry the team gave you a hard time." Alan said.

"It's all right." She shrugged. "I'm used to it."

"Why?" Russ asked.

"Well my family is really posh but I'm not so I always get compared to my 'perfect' older sister Ruby." She replied.

"Wow sounds like Alan!" Sean commented.

"Huh?" Charity asked.

"Oh introductions!" Alan said. "Well, I'm Alan Tracy and I have four older brothers who I always get compared to."

"I'm Sean Albert Thompson son of Albert Thompson the famous writer and I am an only child unless you count my surrogate brothers which are these two."

And finally Russ stepped forward, "And I am Russell, or as these two idiots have decided to call me 'Russ', Anderson. My dad is in the military and I have two younger brothers."

"And you are?" The three of them asked as one as they each stretched out a hand for her to shake.

Charity smiled, "I am Charity Isabelle Marshall, youngest daughter of Elisabeth and Charles Marshall the famous doctor and Actor." She took each of their hands in turn and gave it a shake.

End flashback

"…and that was the beginning of a beautiful friendship as they say!" Alan smiled to himself and his brothers knew he was lost in memories. They had a whispered conversation and then Scott and John left to put the first bit of their plan into action, they had a little brother to fix.
