~Chapter Thirty-One~

   School was over. Katrina was sitting on the bus next to Dean. Vikki was also sitting by them. "I am telling you! I got a new teacher in one of my classes and he's the twin brother of one of your teachers!" Katrina said.

   "Why does it matter?" Vikki asked. "You got the hots for him like Dean has the hots for Mrs. Layden?"

   "What?! I do not have a crush on that dork! He's one of those weirdos that worship the Sea God!" Katrina glares at Vikki. "Dean has a what on Mrs. Layden?"

   "So, one of those Sea God followers are in the school now? Do you think that Mrs. Layden might be another?" Vikki asked Katrina.

   "She could be." Katrina replied.

   "Mrs. Layden is so pretty too..." Dean mumbles to himself. After the bus ride, they got dropped off at their bus stop and made it home the rest of the way.

   "I can't believe one of those Sea God followers came into the school! We really goutta be on guard!"

   "Katrina, you decided to be part of it now?" Vikki asks her.

   "Hey! I just thought I should warn you! I need to warn Jill and Leeann. Leeann can warn her brothers."

   They all got into the house. Katrina ran off. Vikki looked at Dean. He looked upset for some reason.

   "What's the matter?" Vikki asked.

   "I don't think Mrs. Layden will be a part of that. She's really nice. Nice to me." Dean couldn't believe that one of his teachers could possibly a Sea God follower. She was usually nice to Dean and he enjoyed her class. It was actually his favorite class and he always looked forward to it.

   "I always thought you were innocent. You really got the hots?" Vikki laughed.

   "I don't got the hots. What's that?" Dean asks. Vikki just walks away laughing.

    Leeann got home and had put her backpack in her bedroom along with her jacket. When she went downstairs, she seen Bradrick and Brandonlee already in the kitchen along with their friend Veronica.

   "I haven't seen you in a while." Leeann said noticing Bianca.

   "She was sick a few days but we mainly kept going over her place to hang! And then there's that darn work." Bradrick tells Leeann.

   "Like I care." Leeann opened the fridge. She kept looking for a soda. That's what she wanted to drink. She realized that there were none in the fridge. Leeann had a soda in the fridge that she never drunk yet and even wrote her name on it and she didn't even see it. It was nowhere to be found. She knew she didn't drink it."Alright." Leeann shuts the fridge door. "Who stole my pop? I wrote my name on it too this time!" She glares at her two brothers but then eyeballed Brandonlee.

   "It wasn't me! I swear I am innocent! Why do you always blame me?" Brandonlee said to Leeann. He had a soda in front of him on the table where he was sitting. The soda had Leeann's name written on it.

   "Dude, you really do have a can with her name on it." Bradrick noticed that his brother had taken Leeann's can of soda. Bradrick was drinking a glass of milk. Veronica didn't even have a drink.

   "I am looking at you because like he said, you DO have a can there that you were drinking out of with my name on it!" Leeann snaps at Brandonlee. She picked up the can of soda and point at her name on it.

   Brandonlee noticed it. When he pulled it out of the fridge, he didn't know she had written her name on it. "Every time I have a soda, you steal it before I even get it! It isn't fair! You had your own can but you have to go after mine too! You selfish hog!" Leeann was angry with Brandonlee.

   "You don't even drink pop! Remember? You're on a diet." Brandonlee said in a mean tone to Leeann. She didn't like it.

   "I gave up that diet and you know it!" Leeann says.

   "That's it! I am telling mom!" Leeann stormed out of the kitchen.

   "Wow. She really is mad." Veronica said and stared at Brandonlee. "You shouldn't of took her pop."

   "She always tries to say I stole it when really our mom bought us it all for us to share. We didn't just have one can each you know!" Brandonlee said and was irritated with Leeann.

   "Is that true?" Veronica asks Bradrick. He nods.

   "It is true actually." He laughed a little. "Leeann just likes to make a big scene out of things." Bradrick responds. Brandonlee got up.

   "Before I get into trouble, let's go play some football!" Brandonlee ran out of the house. Bradrick and Veronica followed after him. Leeann happened to notice her mom wasn't home.

   "I wonder where mom is? Does Peyton go to preschool? He should because he's getting old. Shouldn't they be home by now? Where did they go? Grocery store?" Leeann wondered but decided to call up her friends to complain about her brothers to them.

   Bradrick, Brandonlee, and Veronica only played football for about 20 minutes and then stopped. "I feel tired." Veronica said and sat down on a lawn chair that was in the back yard.

   "Already?" Bradrick asked. "We just started."

   "Yeah, so I am lazy! Sue me!" Veronicawas irritated."I want a drink. Can you get me one?"

   "Sure..." Bradrick left inside the house through the backdoor.

   "Brandonlee, does your brother have to comment about me wanting to relax?" Veronica asks. Brandonlee came over by her and sat down next to her on the other lawn chair.

   "Well, have you thought about a hamburger or cheeseburger today?" Brandonlee randomly asks her. She stares at him confused.

   "Why? You getting me some?" Veronica asked.

   "I could. If that's your fantasy." Brandonlee replied. "I mean, I was day dreaming of a hamburger and rubbing butter on it when I first woke up this morning. Mom wouldn't let me have it for breakfast so I said 'fuck you' and she told me I was grounded. To top it off I took Leeann's drink."

   "And this really is important?" Veronica didn't understand what he was talking about.

   "It is! I mean if you were day dreaming about a cheeseburger or hamburger, I can get Bradrick to buy everyone some."

   "Why can't you get some? Don't you work at the same job as your brother? Where's your money?" Veronica asks. She still was confused about the whole conversation.

   "Well, yeah, but Bradrick takes my paychecks when I get them."

   "Why? And why do you let him?" Veronica asks confused.

   "Because mom told him to because I took my whole paycheck once and wasted on burgers. She was so mad." Brandonlee responded.

   "But Bradrick eats them too. Doesn't he spend his check on them too" Veronica asked. Bradrick came outside with a drink.

   "Hey, I only take his paycheck because I am the older twin and I can."Bradrick said and hands Veronica a cup of chocolate milk. She takes it and took a drink of it then stared at Bradrick.

   "But Brandonlee said your mom made you take it from him?" Veronica was still confused.

   "Brandonlee is an idiot." Bradrick laughed. Brandonlee glares at him.

   "YOU TOLD ME THAT YOU LIAR! SO YOU LIED TO ME AND WAS TAKING MY MONEY ON PURPOSE?!"

   Brandonlee got up from the lawn chair and started attacking Bradrick.

   "Wow. Brothers fighting. Live wrestling." Veronica said as she watched them both. Leeann was on the phone in the kitchen. She thought she saw something going on outside.

   "Hold on, you two." Leeann sat the phone down on the counter. She had Katrina and Jill on the line with her. She opened the backdoor and saw Brandonlee and Bradrick fighting and now Veronica was cheering them on. Leeann went back inside and picked up the phone.

   "What was it?" Katrina asks.

   "My idiot brothers are fighting each other in the backyard again. I think they're really immature and they call themselves a man." Leeann said. Jill laughs slightly.

   "Well, you know they said boys will be boys. I don't think a man will ever act mature. It's in their nature to be immature. I think it's sort of cute when a guy acts immature at times." Jill said to Leeann.

   "Ew! You don't like her brothers do you?" Katrina asks. "They are totally the weirdos in school! One of them freaking shoves pencils in his nose in class and it's disgusting! And I heard the other puts a pencil in his ear to clean earwax out! Really disgusting!" Katrina said feeling grossed out.

   "I don't like those two! No! I mean in general. Other guys. Ones that don't do disturbing things." Jill said.

   "Good. I mean they really are gross. So, gross no one wants to be partners with them on projects because they burp on people and talk about their burgers. At lunch, they sit alone because they finger their hamburgers." Katrina said to her friends.

   "Wow. Basically, they're dorks." Leeann kind of felt like she already knew about both of them.

   "Sometimes my brother hangs out with them on days he doesn't pretend he's sick. He keeps telling me he likes to spend the day in the nurse's office because the nurse is an angel with big breasts." Jill tells her friends.

   "He's gross." Katrina felt grossed about by Jill's brother. Jill's brother was Felix. The one that wanted to date Katrina at first but Vikki convinced him not to date Katrina.
