*Piper*

"Hey bae, make yourself useful and get me a drink." Dylan lies on the couch and watches the reruns of Beauty and the Geek. I get up and walk to the kitchen. Jason is sitting at the kitchen table reading the paper. He looks up when I walk into the kitchen and shakes his head disapprovingly.

"What?" I ask him. He doesn't feel the need to answer and picks up where he left off. I quickly pour myself a glass of coke and hurry back to the living room. I put the glass of coke down on the coffee table and sit down again. Dylan coughs and looks at me.

"Is something wrong?" I ask softly. He holds out his hand to the glass.

"I can't reach it." He then says irritably.

"Then you facking stand up and put your hand out a little further!" I hear someone shout behind me. Luca enters the room and looks at us with his deep blue eyes. His eyes contrast beautifully with his black hair. I feel that Dylan is tense but he still doesn't get up. To avoid an argument, I get up and hand the glass to Dylan.

"There you go." I say as I fall back into the chair. Luca sighs excessively deeply, but I ignore him.

"Come sit with me for a while." Says Dylan as he opens his arms. My heart makes a jump for a moment and I give him a hug. We stay like that for a while. I sit on his lap with his arms around him.

"Shall we go to your room for a while?" He whispers sultrily in my ear. I look at him shocked.

"Uh n-no. I'm not ready yet." I reply. He looks at me and then rolls his eyes.

"Then don't. But you don't know what you are missing! "For a moment it remains silent. "After yes, then I'll go again." He pushes me off him and stands up. He walks to the coat rack and takes his coat off.

"Are you leaving now because I don't want to?" I ask bemusedly.

"No, it's not that. Well, partly. I just don't understand what you're afraid of. That handjob last time went well too, didn't it?" I just don't know how to give a serious answer to that. My cheeks turn red with embarrassment.

"This is different." I say.

"Whatever you want." He pulls me towards him and immediately sticks his tongue in my mouth. He starts twisting roughly and it feels anything but nice. It feels like I'm licking an ashtray. Yes, I have experience of that. I was very young and I didn't know what it was. Now I know and it is nasty! Since then the boys are not allowed to smoke in the house. When he has finished, he walks out and slams the door behind him.

I run to the kitchen and look for a packet of chewing gum. Jason is still busy with the newspaper and Luca is playing on his phone.

"Dylan is an asshole." Says Luca without looking up from his phone. "He's just using you! You can see that yourself!"

"He's not." I say uncertainly. He laughs scornfully and looks at me somewhat angrily.

"Guys, calm down." Says Jason. "She's just in love Luca. Don't you remember what it was like when you fell in love for the first time?" I quickly grab a glass from the cupboard and fill it with water.

"Yes, but I have learned from it. Love does not exist, relationships are based on lust." I ignore him and walk towards my room. "Hope you learn from this!" He shouts after me.

*Jason*

"Was that necessary?" I ask Luca. He shrugs and continues with his game. I fold the newspaper and throw it on the counter in one move.

"Did you get that new tattoo already?" I ask to bring up a new topic. He puts his phone on standby and rolls up the sleeve of his shirt a little further. "Nice." I say.

"So when are you going to get a tattoo?" Luca asks as he pulls his sleeve down again.

"I can't. Not allowed by my boss." He gets a crooked grin on his face and says, "I can go talk to the boss?" At the same time, he slams his fist into his other hand. It looks so hilarious that I have to laugh.

"You wouldn't dare to do that, you sissy!" He looks around for a moment.

"Is there any food?"

"No, just call Max. Then he can get pizza." Luca flies up and grabs his mobile. A moment later, Max is called for pizza.

*Piper*

After learning in my room, I decide to go downstairs after all. (Yup, our flat has sort of two floors with a staircase leading into the living room). I am really very hungry. I put my empty glass in the sink and just when I want to walk away Jason says, "Come sit with your big brother for a while." I get a smile on my face and jump on his lap. I lay my head on his shoulder and close my eyes.

"You okay?" He whispers as he pulls some hair out of my face.

"I'm tired and I'm hungry." He laughs softly and says, "You're always hungry. Just a little more patience, Max is almost there with the pizza." Just then the bell rings. I sprint to the door and open it.

"Hey little one, I forgot the key. Thanks for opening the door." Before Max can step inside, I slam the door again. "Hey!" I hear him call through the door.

"Say sorry." I shout back.

"For what?" Yells he in surprise.

"You called me little one again. I'm more mature than you." It remains silent for a while.

"Then I'll eat the pizza myself." I quickly open the door.

"Never mind, come in." He laughs loudly and brightly. "Pizza!" He yells.

While eating, Dylan becomes the topic of conversation again. "Are you still with that guy?" Asks Max.

"Yeah." I say with my mouth full

"Ah ieuw Piper." Calls out Jason. I wipe my mouth with a cloth.

"Sorry."

"Okay, then you're not going to like this, little one." Says Max as he takes his mobile out of his pocket. "I saw him in the park with someone else." He opens a picture of Dylan and some girl. Tears spring to my eyes.

"It's all my fault." I sob. "I don't dare move on, so now he's looking for love from someone else." I get up and run upstairs. I grab my mobile from the desk and call Dylan.

Dylan: hey bae

You: I know

Dylan: you know what?

You: of that other girl

Dylan: which girl?

You: that blonde one. Why? Are there more than one?

Dylan: oh she. That was really nothing, sweetheart. I only love you. Do you forgive me?

For a moment I hesitate.

You: uh, okay

Dylan: Fine, honey. I have to go now. I'm busy.

Then he ends the conversation. I walk to the mirror and wipe some mascara from under my eyes. Then I go back downstairs. I don't fancy the guys any more, so I pick up my pizza and slide into my chair.

"Just think of it this way Piper, you're rid of him now. That's better." I look at Jason in surprise. "I just called him and he says he only loves me. I forgave him." I turn and walk away and hear a fist land rock hard on the table.

*Jason*

"Fack that guy!" I exclaim. "He's ruining my whole sister."

"Let's kill him or something." Yells Adam.

"Act normal Adam!" I shout back. "We should just find someone better for her."

"You want to hook her up?" Asks Max.

"Yes, but it has to be someone I trust."

It stays silent for a while.

"I'll do it." Says Luca suddenly. I look at him in surprise. "You?"
