Best friend plus brother equals: "why am I alive?"

"What should I do to impress Kaolin?" I asked my best friend Ashley. 

"Oh, just walk around the house naked!" She suggested happily.

I scowled at her. "What!!!! What do I look like to you!?!" I said with

a bitter expression. 

She pretended to study me. "You look like a slightly desperate,

sexually frustrated, teenage girl." She smiled.

"Gee, thanks!" I said sarcastically. 

"Lighten up, Rose (Short for Rosalie). If he likes you, he'll show it."

"How! He's my brother's best friend. I mean, the two of them

practically have a bro-mance!" I sighed disappointed.

Ashley smiled. "Look at the bright side, if anything at least he didn't

reject you for a girl." 

I scowled at her again. "Why am I friends with you?" I said quietly.

She burst out laughing. 

"Rose?" My brother Heath called for me.  

"Jeah?" I responded opening up my door. 

"Caleb's here." He said. Caleb was Ashley's boyfriend. That lucky bum.

I sighed as he made his way into my room and kissed her.

"Hey, Rose." Caleb said with a smile. 

"Hi." I said with a weak smile. 

"Let me guess...Mister irresistible?" He teased. 

"Would you just shut up!" I stood up. "You guys are not helping my

situation!" 

Caleb sighed and sat on my bed besides Ashley. "I think you should

realize that Kaolin is fooling around with other girls." Caleb said

sadly. I looked out my door, refusing to make eye contact with them. 

"Be back." I said to them. I went into my hallway and headed to the

bathroom. I shut the door and open the window trying to get some air. I

should try getting him, right? I mean, he sleeps with everyone since he

is the schools biggest slut! 

"Oh, sorry." Kaolin said as he stood between the slightly open door. "I

didn't think anyone was in here." He smiled a bit. I felt my breathing

catch in my throat. 

"Uh, no! It's alright. I'll just get out." I smiled at him. I got up

from the window still and watched him as I did. Kaolin was six feet

tall with light brown hair, murky green eyes, high cheek bones, and a

very muscular build. God, he looked amazing. 

When I reached the door he placed his hand on my shoulder. I tried to

ignore the sensation of pleasure that it brought me. "Are you alright?"
