To Hate My Stepbrother

Ava’s POV

I finally decided I was going to leave the room with my best friend. Nicole dragged me down the stairs and since I was still holding my blanket, I wrapped myself up in it as we both sat down to watch a movie.

“So, do you like him?” Nicole asked and my eyes widened at her. She knew I hated him so why was she asking if I liked him?

“Mason? Eww, No!” I said firmly before Nicole snickered and told me she wasn’t talking about Mason but about his dad.

She’d seen a picture of him on the wall in the sitting room and had commented on how cute and hot he is and how Mason had gotten it from him so I assumed she was talking about Mason.

“Oh, he’s amazing, he’s alright and way better than his useless son.” I answered as I explained to Nicole about how nice Danny is not only to my mother but to me too.

We spoke for a while as I told her everything and the reason both our parents weren’t home today and Nicole only congratulated me before sighing once again.

“What?” I snapped and she smiled, I knew what she was going to say next wouldn’t be what I wanted to hear.

“Okay, don’t get mad but how does it feel like living with a man as hot as Mason?” She asked and I rolled my eyes. I tried to keep my irritation at bay since she’d said I shouldn’t get mad.

“I don’t know,” I answered as I picked a chip, “I don’t see anything hot about him, he has a bad character and that clouded the whole supposed hotness.” I shrugged as I answered.

After that, we attempted to focus on the movie playing on the large television.

The door opened and we both turned to see a drunk Mason making his way into the house, he had a beer in hand and also a cigarette at the side of his mouth. Mason wouldn’t be complete if there wasn’t a woman as drunk as he is beside him.

He smirked at me and winked as he waved at Nicole before making his way to his room with a different girl this time.

“See what I’m talking about? He doesn’t do anything productive with his life and he just goes around fucking anything and anybody in a skirt,” I started, “He has a different girl for a different day and he had the gut to even wink at you.” I finished with a sigh and a gag as I rested my back against the chair.

“How do you think it will feel like having a threesome with Mason?” Nicole asked and my eyes widened.

I’d just said all these things and she heard none of them and is only curious about having a threesome with him.

“Nicole?!” I called and she apologised bashly as we both decided it was time for bed. I turned off the TV and we both walked to my room since we have classes tomorrow.

We got up early to get to school and soon we were back to the rustling and bustling of students.

I had gone to get coffee for Nicole and I walked into the class to see her studying. I smiled as I handed her a cup of steaming coffee and sat beside her to continue studying.

We had an ancient history test and we both needed to be prepared. We asked questions from each other and the both of us couldn’t be anymore proud of each other as we answered the questions boldly.

We are now prepared for the test but one can’t be prepared enough so we decided to study even more.

“Okay, I just can’t wrap my head around how sexy and smoky hot Mason is and to be honest if it wasn’t for Ryan who of course I love so much and is my boyfriend, I’d definitely wanna get nasty with him,” Nicole started, digressing from our real topic, “I would totally bang your step brother.” She added and my jaw dropped.

To be honest, Nicole would bang anything as long as it’s good looking.

I’d almost choked on my coffee and I stared at Nicole in disbelief. This is the same Mason I complain about every single day.

“You know what, I’m going to get my ears cleaned because I really can’t believe what I just heard so I’m gonna go clean it up and be sure.” I said as I picked up my books and cup of coffee.

What the hell?

“We’re going to see after the test, yeah?” She asked and I only nodded.

I left the classroom and headed back to my next class, one I didn’t share with Nicole. Xander was already seated in class and I smiled when he instantly waved at me as soon as he noticed me.

“Why didn’t you call me after Monday’s lesson?” I asked and he opened his mouth to talk but before he could I took it out of his mouth.

“I really do not blame you though, you know, after getting to meet my family and seeing how they are, who wouldn’t run for the nearest exit, right?” I asked with a sigh that made Xander laugh.

“Stop overreacting,” he started with a small chuckle as he nudged me with his shoulder and I turned to look at him, “I in-fact love your family and I really would love to see them again. I enjoyed everything, especially how you and your brother bantered.” He laughed. “It looked really fun. I wish I can be able to experience that.”

There he goes again calling Mason my brother.

“So why didn’t you come back?” I asked.

“I’m sorry, I’ve been dealing with some things but I’m good now. Could we study at my place today instead? It’s Wednesday.” He said and I smiled.

“Of course.” I replied, agreeing to study with him and we both talked for a while and had even gone over some questions together.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

I looked around the class to see some of the students studying while most of them were distracted and talking to each other.

Our professor soon walked into the classroom and I smiled at Xander as we both focused on class.
