The evening sunkissed through the window as I helped my mum to bake and get the last tray of cookies in the oven. I had this song by Dhruv- double take playing in the karaoke set up in the living room.

The living room was spacious and listening to the song as I vibed and my mum being in good mood. I twirled around the kitchen and sang along with the sexy voice of Dhruv.

"August wassup". My older brother walked in along with his bestfriend Noah.

I turned back startled as he scanned the kitchen and my eyes met Noah.

I quickly averted my eye and looked at Keith. " Baking" I replied as lame as my answer could sound. "So Noah and I are going to hang out, you wanna join? ". I simple pretended like I was running some errands. " Ummhhh I'm good". I replied without looking at any of them when my mum walked in and chimed "Keith?!, and Noah your home! How was practice?"  She questioned and Keith just got himself a bottle of juice from the refrigerator and gulped it down without pouring himself one. I cringed and so did mum as Noah replied "practice was not bad". He smiled which didn't actually felt genuine but a showcase.

My mum frowned at Keith as she suggested we all leave her alone in the kitchen and she make up some snacks for us to enjoy. I walked out of the kitchen first leaving Keith and Noah. My alone time vibing to music was ruined with the casting of my popular brother and his fellow popular friend.

I heard no good story of Noah. He was popular and behind those blinding sheepskin showcased in front of my mum he is actually a wolf searching for prey. He would fuck anyone he finds interesting and I did met him before my brother actually brought him over for hanging out.

Before Keith introduced Noah to me.

I still remember that day.

I was having a good day heading to my class but feeling the urge to have a tour at the toilet to do my must needs. I walked in without realising Noah punching the ass out of someone which I later knew was Jaden the school quarterback bully.

He just looked at me with his dead glare and his eyes had no rational insight. It was a pure beast.

I quivered as all the little veins in my body frozed and I quickly said "I shall pretend like I didn't see anything" And I quickly left the toilet. From that day on I ignored him straightout until my too much of a popular brother brought him over.

That's most part of my story.

I walked up to my room and jumped

On my bed. This is the third time in a week Keith brought Noah over and i haven't left my room during those days just so i do not bump into him. I sigh and scrolled down my Instagram page when the door open and my brother walked in and of course along with Noah. "What the..,seriously Keith!! ". I scowled with irritation literally in my voice. " What?!! " He asked back "not like you were jerking off are you??! " He asked with his eyebrows perked up and my eyes catching Noah smirked. "No.!!!, what the hell Keith please get out of my room"  I plead.  He laid on my bed. Keith was tall and fit to be an MvP player of basket ball of course. He had dark chocolate brown hair and he was popular which means he attracted a lot of people around him. I was the polar opposite of my brother. I was awfully a reserved person and took time opening up with people.

Noah was tall like my brother and had dark brown eyes with a mullet cut which was pushed back. He had dark black hair and a good set of body. He was dressed in black hoodie and black jogger with a jordan air shoe.

"Mum and dad are going out for trip till the next week so party this Saturday. Keep your mouth shut and don't bring any lame people". He said looking at me which I returned with an eye roll. " I'd rather sleepover at Lisa's than to join the lame party". He giggled "sure lil brother, figured that part out anyways. Just making sure you keep that mouth shut". I eye rolled and said "could you leave now?! ". He stood up and so did Noah who was sitting on the chair of my study table. Keith left the room followed by Noah who turned to gaze at me as I sat on the bed with my leg folded and an oversize shirt and joggers. I felt chills behind my spines as he glared bullets at me like I did something I was not suppose to do.

He slowly shut the door and his gaze never left mine until I laid my head back to the same pillow.

My face flustered for some reasons. I was in a phase with Noah but I know I cannot. I can never. I must not.

I sigh plugging in my Earpods and playing my favourite song 'one right now by the weeknd and post malone'.

I pretend to hide this feeling. The tingling feeling that makes your heart feel full.

I don't and won't like him.
