"Go away Raven." The ginger said, gently nudging her little sister away from her laptop. She wanted to Skype her crush in peace and certainly didn't want a bratty little nine year old right beside her. Who knows what insanely personal things she'll blurt out just to annoy her?
-----
Hi. My name is Rose. No, I'm not a flower. And I have three siblings. Two of them are younger than me, and I have an equally annoying big brother who is really popular. I have Raven and Dakota, as the younger siblings. Dakota at age 11 and Raven at 9. Then I have my stupid older brother named Curtis who is 18, a year older than me. I have curly light red hair that came to about a shoulders' length and blue eyes. I love my eyes. I think they are my best asset.
I closed my precious blue MacBook Air and hopped on my big comfy bed, rolling around on the covers. I probably shouldn't have done that considering I just made my bed after my mom nagged me eight hundred times. Oh well.
My crush is named Chance. He's really funny and attractive. But, he's a bad boy. He gets into trouble often, always argues with the teachers, and has girls all over him. Every single day. Whenever I'm on break I constantly spend my time in the library, working on homework and such. Chance and his group of girls always seem to gather in front of where I work. It bugs me.
As for me, I'm a good girl. I think. I get perfect grades and I help out a lot. I try and stay away from the crowd; I hate bringing attention to myself. I enjoy rugby, but that's more of a secret. I don't know why I fell so hard for Chance, but I did. Sucks to be me.

"Rosey! Dinner!"
"Coming Mom!"
As I met the top of the stairs, my brother burst out of his room, shoving me aside and almost causing me to fall down. "Oi! Watch it!"
"Oops, sorry. I didn't see you." He gave an evil smirk that just made me want to kill him for almost making me plummet down the seemingly endless stairs.
"Suck an egg." I sneered, sitting down in my usual spot along with Raven and Dakota. My dad was working late.
"Rosey, we do not talk like that while we are about to eat. Now, both of you grab your forks and start eating." My mother scolded, and I obediently obeyed. I loved her cooking.
My mom was a really nice and beautiful woman. She got along with everyone in our neighborhood. Her beauty was out of this world. She had long red hair that went to her shoulders, with a little curl at the tip. Her smile lit up the entire room. She was fairly slim--I mean, she did go for a jog every morning. I wish I was as beautiful as her. Chance would be begging for me in no time.
"Mom! This is really good!" Shouted my little sister rather loudly, causing an identical death stare from me and my big bro. My other brother was eating like a normal child, except when he'd sneak on his phone to text his girlfriend. Mom had a rule of no phones at the table, so he always had to be really sneaky.
"Raven, darling. Thank you for the compliment but please don't scream." My mother said with a gentle smile.
"I'm done." I announced, getting up and walking back up to my room.
"Tubby." My brother laughed and I had a second mind to kick him where it hurts.
"Shut up." I yelled. So what if I ate very fast and loved food? I'm not fat!
I ignored his other unwanted comments and made my way to my room, going back on Skype. And get this--Chance only recently added me then wanted to video chat. I was beaming with joy. Maybe we can do it now.
'Hey Chance. Do u wanna do the video chat now?' I typed, hitting send almost immediately. I got a reply back.
'who r u lol'
Huh? Was this a joke?
'It's me, Rose. U said u wanted to video chat me. I'm Curtis' sister.' Chance and Curtis were really close for some reason. I hated it. Everyone knew Curtis. And whenever he got the chance, he'd make sure everyone knew me too. But in a really bad way.
'this is chances girlfriend aly. oh your that girl. the loner in my history class'
Meet my mortal enemy. Alyson. This girl made me so mad--
'Oh. Can you not call me that?' Sorry that I hate most people.
'lol whatever k bye loser' I could feel her smirk on the other end of the screen.
Her grammar really pissed me off. I'm not a loser! And the one thing me and my brother have in common is that we both simply can't stand the idiot that is Alyson. She puts the dumb in blonde. I walked over to my brothers door and slammed it open, greeted with the pleasure sound of punk rock blaring from his computer.
"Turn it down!"
"What?"
"Turn it down!!"
"What?"
I walked over and shut off his computer, the music shutting off. "I said turn it down."
My brother's room scared me a little. It had blue walls that he covered up with multiple posters of various bands and almost naked women. He has messy dark brown hair and the same blue eyes as me. He was a foot taller than me. He usually wore black. Black jeans, black shirt, black jacket, black shoes. He was--what some people might call--a 'badass' though I really don't see it.
"The hell? What do you want, Rose?" He looked mad but I didn't care right now.
"Did you know Aly was dating Chance? I tried talking to him I Skype but she was on his account instead." I asked, and he obviously knew I cared.
You see, Curtis knows about me having a major crush on Chance. He actually didn't go and tell everyone which shocked me. He could be a good brother sometimes.
"What? Is Chance retarded? That girl is so dumb she failed her driving test like, eight times. Hold on lemme text him." My brother pulled out his iPhone and texted away, instantly getting a reply. Alyson had a bad crush on Curtis, and he shut her out. It was fun to watch her come to my house and pretend to be my friend just for him.
"He said they just starting dating on Sunday." My brother then clicked the FaceTime button. And before I knew it, Chance's face was staring at me. My brother threw his phone at me the last second, and I let out a scream when Chance appeared. I gave the phone back to the devil I call a sibling, my cheeks bright red.
"Your sister okay? Why did you give her the phone?" Chance spoke, giving me a weird look. I felt so embarrassed.
"No she's mental. I'm kidding. Yo, why are you dating the blonde bimbo? I thought you hated her?" Curtis asked, this time giving the weird look to Chance.
"She's hot--" My brother kicked me out of the room but I kept my ear to the door so I could hear their conversation.
"Hotter than your sister, for sure. She's probably the only girl I haven't dated yet. I don't plan on dating her anytime soon, either. Impressed at my skills?"
My heart sank right then and there. I felt like crying. I trudged back to my room and slammed the door, locking it then jumping on my bed once again. I logged onto my computer and went on Skype to hopefully talk to my best friend Mackenzie. But when I logged on I was greeting with a billion messages from Chance. Or in this case, Aly.
'wait loner kid'
'he's talking to ur bro right now'
'awwww chance called me hot and you ugly at least he has common sense'
'why does ur bro hate me?'
'i still like him lol'
Wait a second, was Chance being played by the dumbest kid in our grade?
Uh oh.
'Shut up.' Was all I could type before I started bawling. Ugh, I hate life. And I have school tomorrow. I have to face Chance tomorrow. Kill me now.
