My Brother's Best Friend

Chapter 13

[[Storm]]

"Did you hear?" Kat said rushing towards me at the end of the day.

"Hear what?" I asked shutting my locker and walking to the car park with her.

"About the storm." She said clutching her books closer to her chest.

"Apparently it's going to be the worse one this year and we're already in the end of November." Tina said as she joined us.

"No I didn't hear but hey, you guys are still coming over after school right? I know it's been like three weeks since my parents have came back but I actually miss living with you guys. Anyway, Mum and Dad are leaving Jakey with me and Matt cause they're going to one of my Dad's client's party." I rolled my eyes.

"Sure." The both said as we reached Matt's car.

"Ready?" He asked and leant down to kiss Kat. I rolled my eyes and hopped into the back seat of car and yelped in surprise when I almost sat on Zac's lap.

"Jeeze, you idiot. What are you doing back here?" I asked as I moved into the middle to make room for Tina.

"Not you." He whispered and I tired to hide my blush.

"So.." I said tryng to change the subject and I heard him chuckling next to me.

Zac and I had been seeing each other for near enough four weeks and we were still keeping it a secret. I hated lying to my friends and my brother but I wasn't sure if I was ready for their reaction, not when I'm happy with how things are at the moment, I don't want to ruin it.

I pulled my coat onto my legs so I could put my bag on floor. I felt Zac intertwine his hand with mine under the coat and I smiled to myself. Yeah, I wasn't about to ruin this yet.

He hadn't been the another girl in the time he's been with me and the guys were teasing him about it, specially my brother.

Matt finally asked Kat to be his girlfriend two weeks ago after a few successful dates and I was happy that they were happy.

"Sophie.." Tina snapped her fingers infront of my face and I snapped my head up to look at her.

"What?" I asked quickly. I then realised that Zac's grip on my hand had tighten and I turned to frown at him, his jaw was clenched and he was looking out of the window pretending to be interested in the scenery.

"I asked you about that winter dance the school is throwing at the end of term." I frowned at her then, huh? I didn't know we were having a winter dance.

"Uh huh.." She rolled her eyes fustrated and Kat giggled from the front seat.

"I asked you who you wanted to go with."

"Oh, hmmm..." I pursed my lips and tilted my head. "I'm not sure if I'm going yet." I shrugged and she gaped at me.

"Nut ah, your going. Even if I have to drag you by your hair." I put my hand to my hair and pouted. "Relax, the dance is in two weeks. We have plenty of time to decided on your date." I laughed but when I looked at her being serious I stopped.

"No, Tina. I know how you get with these things and what if I want to go by myself?" I said and moved slightly closer to Zac when she gave me a deathly glare.

"No. Your going and I most certainly wont let you go alone." Zac's hand tighten on mind and I winced slightly. He losened it slightly but didn't look at me.

"Who are you going with?" I asked raising my eyebrow.

"Sam." She stated. "He asked me last week."
