PARKER

Jamie nudges Drewin the arm with his shoulder, causing him to bump into me. Drew pushes him back, practically knocking him off his feet. For a pair of twins, you’d think they’d be kind to each other but no, they are the worst, always fighting like they’re trying to one up each other. If it hadn’t been for the way we all grew up, I’d have ditched their asses long before now. As they continue to shove each other, I just continue walking across the overly green grass, shaking my head at their antics.

“Ten Grand says I can get every new girl in this school before the end of the week.” Jamie brags as he jogs to catch up to me. I side step a girl who’s staring dazedly at the twins. We’ve had girls chasing us since we were twelve but I rarely pay attention to them. Girls are more trouble than they’re worth. Well, except when my libido demands I scratch that ever increasing itch, then it’s a matter of finding a girl who won’t expect too much from me.

“Get fucked,” Drew snaps, “there’s like twenty new girls this year, no way you’d be able to bag them all in six days.” He shovesJamie into the girl, then shouts, “Before I can!” Neither of them stop to apologise to the poor girl, but the look on her face says she’d beg them to do it if it meant she could touch them again.

“Then it’ll be an easy ten grand, wouldn’t it?” Jamie laughs shoving my shoulder this time. My eyes are rolling into my head before I can stop them. I sidestep a couple making out near the fountain before cutting across the grass to the footpath. My gaze locks onto someone and words pour from my mouth before I can even think, “Fifty says I can gether.” I nod my head at the girl standing next to Sandra. The girl is smoking hot. Easily a ten out of ten. I slowly trail my gaze from her head to her toes and back up again. She’s one of those exotically beautiful girls with dark hair, slightly tilted eyes, porcelain skin and curves in all the right places. I’m practically drooling as I zero in on the tight ass and long legs.

I’m not sure how such a small thing could possibly have long legs, she’d barely reach my shoulders. I’m pulled from my thoughts as the twins wrap their arms around my shoulders, hanging off me like a pair of monkeys. “Who?” They both ask at the same time their eyes flit from person to person near the main hall of the castle.

“The hottie standing next to that Sandra chick.” I nod my head, towards the girl who’s captured my attention.

“Dude, I love you but there is no way any of us would stand a chance, look at the way she’s standing, that pointed chin is high in the air. Her nose is practically parallel to the sky, there’s no way a stuck up bitch like her is going to even give us the time of day, let alone a fuck in a closet at lunch time.”

“Huh?” I search around for who he could be talking about, the girl I was looking at is nothing like that.

“The chick with the red shirt and black pants, right?” Jamie asks, pointing to a girl standing a few feet away from my dream girl. “What? No! I was looking at her, the girl in the pale bluebutton up and dark jeans, standing next to Sandra.” My gaze goes straight back to her. There’s something about the way she stands out that has me intrigued. She’s not hanging her head like the shy girls, but she’s also not sticking her nose in the air or glaring at other people. There’s a haunted look to her that is drawing me in.

“Oh, that’s not Sandra, that’s Samantha.” Drew finally says after a few moments.

I roll my eyes. “Like I care what her name is.” I scoff to hide my embarrassment over mixing up the names. I’ve never gotten a girl’s name wrong before. The stunning beauty before me must have scrambled my brain.

“Be right back.” Before I can get another word out, Drew jogs off, heading straight for my dream girl. “Fifty grand, Dude, you’ll lose this bet within the day. She’s fucking sexy. No way she’s gonna be hard to get.”

Ignoring Jamie, I watch as Drew stops suddenly, practically slamming right into the girl before dropping to one knee. Even from here I can hear him talking. “Sorry, I don’t usually fall this fast, but honey, you’re an angel dropped from heaven and destined for me.”

My eyes roll so hard I swear they’ve gone into the back of my head. Seconds pass and she finally opens her mouth, the lyrical sound coming out of her is like hearing an actual angel sing.

Until the words sink into my brain….

Pickup Lines

GABRIELLA

“You stealthat line from an eighties movie? Or is that seriously how pathetic boys around here are?” I look down at the gorgeous guy who’s trying too hard to seem casual as his tanned cheeks turn a slightly darker shade. The way his eyes narrow lead me to believe he’s more annoyed than embarrassed, so I up my game a little. “You can drop the lines. I’d rather talk to a real man than a boy with no game.”

It takes everything in me to stifle the giggle that wants to erupt from the way his cheeks go even darker.Now that’s the colour of embarrassment.

“Oh, I’m all man baby, I can show you if you want to go find somewhere a little more private.”

“Now see, only a boy would need to establish how much of a real man he is. Sorry kid, but you’re just not man enough. Maybe in a few years when your balls have dropped.” I tap my chin as though thinking, “On second thought, don’t bother then either, you’re just not my type.” For shits and giggles, I nod my headtowards the identical twin of the man in front of me, “Someone more like him is my taste.”

“What? But he’s my twin. Identical. Th… but… uh….” I pat his head with a straight face, “Don’t worry honey, even identical twins mature at different rates. I’m sure you’ll catch up to him in a few years. You might even be capable of using big words and acting like a gentleman one day.” To really rub it in, I give his twin a little finger wave before turning my back on their little group and walk away.

It takes my student liaison less than three seconds to get over her shock and burst out laughing. “Oh my god! Do you have any idea what you’ve just done? Those guys have never been denied. Notever!I can’t believe you just did that.”

Rejection

DREW

My knees refuse to unlock,I’m still kneeling where I was before she walked away when my brother and Parker close the distance between us. I have no idea how to react. Not one girl in this entire school or outside of it has ever made me feel like I’m not good enough, but to compare me to my brother and say I’m less mature than him….

I'm not sure what I'm supposed to say or do I've never been denied before. I want to punch something. Preferably my twin. I glare at him as his grin grows bigger. The asshole finds this funny. “I’m out, she’s a bitch.” I grouch before finally getting to my feet.

“Hundred grand.” Parker laughs staring after the bitch.

I can’t help my eyes being drawn to those tight buns barely concealed by the dark denim. No matter how much of a bitch she is, she’s got one hell of a nice ass. I shake my head to clear my lust filled thoughts. “No fucking way, she’s… Urgh! I can’t even... Urgh!”
