Chapter 12 - Siblings

Driving back home was not so fun for Nolan, he had no idea how a girl he had met just for two days would not leave his mind, he had known girls for years and not think about them once or care about them.

He was alone in his car, after dropping off Stacy at her house and canceling their hangout for the day.

"Everytime I see her, I get weak… I have no urge to do other things with anyone, I just want to keep looking at her and being around her" he thought as he drove home.

He had never felt that way before and the feeling made him uneasy and weird.

When Jackson was trying to bully her, the anger he felt for him and the urge to protect her from him or any other horrible boys or men got over him, and judging from how he made attempt to stepped in, Nolan knew he felt something strong for Nancy.

He stepped on the break the instant he got and sat down in his car for a while before coming down.

His mom had noticed his mood from the kitchen's window, she waited patiently until her son come in before asking what was going on.

Nolan came in and hugged his mom from the back, he grabbed a banana on the table and peeled it off while sitting on a chair facing his mom.

"How was school today sweetheart, you look wear off, did someone stresses you", the woman asked.

"Yes Nancy is stressing me out", Nolan thought as he chewed his banana gently. He shook his head, and gave him mom a gentle smile.

"Don't worry mom it's just a long day at school… I would wash up and come down for this nice aroma I must not miss", Nolan said before grabbing his bag and walking off with the banana still in his hand.

She watched her son walk away, Nolan has always been super close with his mom than he is to his dad, and that is usual for every male child.

He got in and jumped on his huge bed.

He laid there for a while before sitting up and pulling his phone out of his front pocket, Nolan clicked on instagram and without hesitation he searched for Nancy. But there were lot of Nancy in his search options and none of them looked like who he was searching for.

He clicked on Westwood highschool instagram page and check the followers to see it there was any Nancy in it but after many times he tried, there was no match.

Nolan had never seen anyone with Nancy, that he could search for their name, he doesn't even know the girl that had stepped in for Nancy earlier.

He gave up and dropped his phone, Nolan grabbed his hair and fell on his bed again.

"This is driving me nut!!!", he groaned out.

"Nolan the food is ready, come out soon", his mother called out.

***** 4:06pm

He came out of the shower, his wet hair dropped down to his body as he dried it with his towel, he was wearing a short when he came out but was not wearing a shirt.

His laptop beeped as there was an incoming Skype call.

It was one of the twins calling, Nolan accepted and saw the boy in his car with three girls at the back of the seat, they could all see him.

Nolan was not embarrassed, he had been shirtless in front of girls before at the beach, so it was not new to him.

The towel was across his neck as he sat on his bed staring at the laptop.

"Hey dude! I am calling because the girls wouldn't stop asking to call you, told them you would be busy since you just returned from school but here we are", The twin said and as he had said the girls were excited to had seen Nolan through video call, even more excited that he was shirtless and his hair were not dry.

"Oh my God, he look even more hot straight out of bathroom",

"I have never seen him out of bathroom before, this is such a scene"

The girls chatter and giggled.

Nolan let out a smile as he was not bothered by this, he had been used to female attention since he was 13, every girl in his class would always want to talk to him, buying him gift and some even steal their parent's money to buy him stuffed animal.

There had been many times when older women, had hit on him also, he was used to it.

"Oh come on girls, he is not a museum project, why are you all being weird oh my God", The twin said, looking back at the girls.

"Is that why you called, or is something up?", Nolan asked.

He had known the twins since they were in junior high, the twins had moved to different school last year and this hadn't changed their friendship.

"No man, they keep pestering me and I have to do what they want so they can give me what I want, right girls", the twin asked the girls and they chorused "yes".

At that moment, Nolan realized that was not what fun was, having lot of girls chorusing they wanted him, having multiple of them fighting over him, he was not having it.

"Alright then, I will leave you to have fun", he said before ending the video call.

Nolan sat there wondering what had changed, nothing interest him now, and he had no urge to do anything.

There was a knock on his door and immediately the door got opened.

Nolan knew who else could barge in his room, even after he had warned her to always knock, the girl listened and knocked once before barging in.

He sighed and looked up at his sister who was standing by his door and staring at him.

"Tara! What is it now?".
