Lawrence
"Why did you let her win?"
I didn't. She won fair and square."
"Don't lie Ace, we know you. You let her win. I want to know why?"
"You wouldn't understand."
"She's a kid Ace you need to keep your immoral thoughts to yourself it's not healthy."
"Says the guy that got his face rearranged for kissing her."
"The kid was pissed, I kissed his sister. And it was nothing. It was new year so what was the harm in it? It wasn't like it meant s**t.
The kid was just protecting his sister dude. Like you would protect yours if some older dude kissed her!"
"Whatever Lawrence just admit it, you like her!" Ace said angrily.
I could tell he was about tk lose his s**t we all knew he had feelings for this girl though qgd was six years younger than us. "Yaab I like her happy!" I coaxed him, not expecting what came next.
His fist hit my jaw, giving me whiplash. Before I came to my senses and. How the i***t face had landed another.
I went for him. "What the hell dude?"
"Stay the hell away from her!"
"And what if I decide not to?"
"You'll regret it."
He lunged at me. What the hell was wrong with him?
We got pulled away from each other. "What the hell has got into you two? She's just a kid."
Ace cut his eyes at me then Brandon . "Says the guy that had a thing for her first."
"Wowh calm the hell down. Why the hell are you arguing over a chicken that's old enough to be your little sister!"
"Grow up FFS go for girls your own age, wait till she's more mature and see if you like her then."
We nodded. I had to agree with him. He was the more mature and more sensible one out of all of us.
We bro hugged and agreed we'd see if our feelings changed over the years towards Courtney cause let's face it none of us would feel comfortable around her without Labidos on high alert when she's only eleven and that's against the law and we'd be called peidos and go to prison. I think it was for the best if all of us just stayed friends until she finished high school then take it from there.
Ashton
We were all hanging at my house. My brother has been over at Ace's since yesterday. He came back briefly to get a change of clothes and left. They were having some dumb snooker tournament like they always did every month. I was not interested in it cause we all knew that Ace was the snooker king and no one could ever beat him. "So where's Lawrence?"
'At Ace's there having some dumb snooker tournament again." I sighed.
"Surprised you ain't there "
"Hell no. I'm not dumb like those lot. I know better Ace will win as per and they'll all get annoyed that he didn't give them a fair chance to win yadda yadda."
"That's where Courtney was going."
We all turned away, no way would she go or was a boys only thing.
"You sure Tucker? We ell know Ace only invited guys cause he thinks girls don't know s**t about the game?"
"Positive. He invited all of them to play against him and his friends."
That should be good.
"You do realise your sister has no chance in beating Ace right? He isn't called the snooker king for nothing?"
I don't think she cares if she wins or loses, it's just a little fun."
"Not to Ace it's not. He hasn't lost a game yet."
"Well let the best person win cause Courtney has been practicing on our table."
I smirked
The door slammed we all turned looking at Lawrence who looked as if he had been in a fight and lost. "What the hell happened to you?"
"I don't want to rain about it!"
"Come on bro you look all busted up something obviously happened. You were meant to go to Ace's for a friendly snooker tournament. So what the hell happened?"
"We had a heated discussion and we ended up brawling."
"Don't tell me you were arguing about a chin again?"
"It wasn't just angry chick Ash. She's smart and funny. Well not so smart to realise that.."
"Realise what?"
"Nothing I said too much already."
"Okay so how was your dumb tournament? Did Ace win?"
"It's not dumb anc no he didn't Courtney did satisfied?" He said, before he stormed away.
Now I know which he's pushed. Ace let Courtney win.
I looked at Tucker. I think he realised what I did. His fists were bailed and he was gritting his teeth. "Calm down dude there has to be a genuine explanation."
"I need to go, I need to talk to my sister."
"Sure dude we'll see you tomorrow."
"Yeah later."
We all watched as Tucker left the house, closing the door angrily. At least he didn't slam it shut.
Tucker
I couldn’t believe the nerve of the guy! He let Courtney win, he let her believe she won off her own back instead of him cheating; he could've let her win fairly. I slammed the door shut and Courtney looked at me shocked. "Are you okay Tuck?"
"Not really."
"What's wrong? Who's riled you up the wrong way?"
"Your so called friend's brother."
"Who Ace?"
"Yes that wanker!"
"W..why what did he do?"
"He'd an ass Court, he let you win that stupid tournament."
"No he wouldn't." She protested.
"Do you really know him, and are you really sure he wouldn't?"
"Not really but.."
"Just think about it, Court . He's playing you and you fell for it." I looked at her. His eyes were glistening with tears, s**t. I couldn't deal with this right now. "I'm going to my room, just to think about it, okay sis he's not all he seems."
She nodded not saying a single word. I guess she wasn’t there when if all kicked off. I jumped up the stairs. I know I may be acting like a d**k right now but she needs time to think about whether or not she believes Ace would let let win a dumb game and what hid alteria motive as to do so
