All Over Me
Chapter 1: Awkward Situations
I always seem to find myself in awkward situations when I'm with them. Sometimes I wonder why they even ask me to come along in the first place. It's like they entirely forget my existence or something. Almost like they forget they made me come here with them. I didn't even want to, but I was told I had no choice.
According to my sister Adrian, I need to "get out more and have a social life." It's not that I don't have any friends, it's just I have only a few, but that's by choice. I never had to have this big group of friends to be happy.
My sister was different though. She cared a bit too much about the whole popularity thing. She was friends with everybody, and I'm not joking! She won't be friends with just one clique only. But I guess that's pretty cool.
Adrian didn't have much popularity until she started dating Dakota. Then everyone knew her because people always discussed who Dakota was dating next. I don't even know why . . . really, he's just another scene kid. I guess he's sort of different than the others. But the weird thing is . . . he didn't even do anything to be admired by our fellow students. All he had to do was stand there and people would swoon over him. Girls and guys.
There were times when I questioned his sexuality. I mean, he does his make up better than any girl I know, and the fact that he takes longer in the bathroom than Adrian. But I can't deny that he is pretty attractive. I just wondered if dating all these girls was some sort of cover up.
Before Adrian, Dakota had been with 5 other girls, so I've heard. He went through them pretty fast if you ask me. They all were one week after the other. I was sure that Adrian would be just another week long relationship, but surprisingly they made it to three months. That's probably the longest relationship they both have had.
I always get this weird feeling around Dakota. Not a bad feeling, but kind of . . . strange. Sometimes I catch him staring at me and he doesn't even bother to look away. He just smiles.
I'm a bit concerned for Adrian. I can tell she likes him a lot, but the signs of him being gay are definately there. He doesn't act like those guys who are extremely feminine or anything, and he doesn't have that girly voice that some gay guys have. But he almost looks girlish in the face.
I would tell her my suspicions, but for some reason I could never bring myself to say anything. She just looked so happy with him, and I didn't want to ruin it for her.
I looked down at the ground as a group of elder people passed by, thowing looks of disapproval our way. Okay the next time they try to get me to go somewhere, I'll refuse! I'm pretty sure we've been sitting here for over an hour. So this whole time I've been watching them try to eat each other's faces off and exchange words of love for one another. It was getting rather sickening.
There were better things I could be doing right now . . . hell, anything was better than having to look at this.
"Baby brother looks bored" Adrian said as she wrapped an arm around Dakota's neck.
I shrugged. "Just a bit" I replied blankly.
"But you're with us Kylie" Dakota said in an overly cute voice that screamed gay!
I rolled my eyes. "Don't call me that."
Adrian giggled. "We're going to start calling you Kylie!"
I sighed. "I'd rather you not . . ."
Adrian pursed her lips. "But it's cuuute!" she whined.
"It's not cute it's annoying!" I grumbled.
She made a face as if she tasted something sour. "Well, you're no fun!"
Sometimes I felt like I was the older sibling. There were times when it was hard for me to believe she was 18 now. She never seemed to act her age for as long as I can remember.
I shrugged once more. "Can we go home now?" I asked boredly.
Adrian groaned. "Fine, fine!"
I got up and walked ahead of them. I've seen enough of their lovey-doveyness for today . . . and perhaps the rest of my life.
I have a bad habit of waiting to do homework the night before it's due, but hearing strange noises from your sisters room doesn't help your thought process. I tried my best to ignore them, so I put my iPod on full blast. Ironically, it died half way through the song. Seriously, what the hell?! The Gods just wanted me to suffer!
"Oh hell yes!" Adrian screamed.
I could feel my eye twitching violently. I swear my ears would start bleeding if this didn't stop soon!
"WOOOOO!! Is that all you got?! Give me all you got!" Adrian yelled, followed by the sound of something hitting the wall. Hard. And repeatedly. Then another loud noise of some sort.
"Ah, fuck!" Dakota shouted.
Okay, enough was enough damn it! I opened my door, walking the short distance to Adrian's room not even bothering to knock. "You guys really--" I stopped and arched an eyebrow. Thankfully they were fully clothed, but Adrian had Dakota pinned down. They both stared at me as if I just spoke to them in Latin.
"What . . . the hell are you guys doing?" I finally asked.
Adrian hopped up, but Dakota stayed on the floor. "We're wrestling!" she replied cheerfully.
"Would you like to join us, Kyle?" Dakota asked with a smirk.
"No thanks . . ." I mumbled.
Adrian nudged Dakota with her foot. "Come on, That's 3 to 2! You don't want your girlfriend to kick your ass, do you?"
They have to be the weirdest couple . . . ever.
With one swift kick, Dakota sent Adrian to the floor.
"Oh that is so it!" she yelled as she pounced on him.
"Uh . . . try to keep it down then . . ." I said as I slowly closed the door behind me.
Seriously. Freaks.
I sat on the couch with my knees to my chest, eating cookie dough ice cream while watching my bootleg copies of Drake and Josh. Yes, I like the show that much. I don't know what it is about it, but I find it highly enjoyable. And I can't help but notice that Josh has gotten quite attractive. I wonder how he lost all the weight . . . and Drake really needs to get a new hair cut . . . that just doesn't work for me.
Okay, wait. I just sounded like a gay guy. I know I'm notgay. I just happen to admire some guys. There's nothing wrong with that, right?
"I love this show!"
My head snapped in the direction of that voice. Dakota stood in the doorway.
"Is this the one where Josh runs over Operah?" he asked coming forward and sitting next to me.
I slowly pulled the spoon away from my mouth and stuck it in the ice cream. "Uh . . . yeah."
He sat a bit too close for comfort. I tried to move over, but I realized there was no room to move! "So . . . where's Adrian?" I asked.
"She fell asleep."
Okay . . . if she was asleep then why was he still here? He could just drive home.
We sat there, just paying attention to the TV. For me . . . it was awkward, considering his leg touching mine. And considering that I'm in black boxers and a tank top.
I self-conciously ate out of my almost empty ice cream carton. I felt like he was staring at me, so I looked and sure enough . . . he was staring at me.
"What?" I asked.
He smirked. God I hated when he did that . . .
"You got a little . . . here . . ."
I arched an eyebrow as he grabbed my chin. My breath caught in my throat as he licked my bottom lip.
I just sat there . . . as if I were frozen. I felt the blood rush to my cheeks. Why did he just do that?!
Dakota laughed as he stood. "See ya tomorrow." He said as he headed for the front door.
Once I was sure he was gone, I cursed myself for blushing! Why the fuck did I blush?! He's my sister's boyfriend! Jesus on the cross!!!
But now one thing's for certain . . .
My suspicions are correct.
