NICK'S POV

EIGHT YEARS AGO

My bedroom door opens wide all of a sudden and I had to hurriedly exit the porn site I was looking at and I quickly fixed my pants, pressing my boner down on the bed. Damn it mom, could you at least knock? I was almost on my peak.

"Nick will you look after Tracy for me tonight?" She says while she was fixing her earrings and not looking at me.

I exhale.

"Mom, she's already twelve." I whined.

She slapped my ass, "And you're older than her. Don't go anywhere tonight."

I quickly pulled myself up from the bed with my plow covering my boner and my face fell. "But mom it's Friday and I'm going out to Alec's."

"Goodness Nicholas you're already sixteen! At least be responsible here at home. You're always out with your friend Alec!" She starts to nag.

I sighed. "Mom that's what teens do. I always go out cos it's fun."

"And I'm going out with Danny tonight. So you have to look after your sister for me. Plus her friend is sleeping over."

Danny her suitor.

I scratched the back of my head. "You're going to pay me for this."

"That's why I'm not hiring a nanny cos you're here. I'm not paying you to guard your own sister. I love you honey." she leans over and kissed my forehead.

I watch her as she heads out of my room. I lay back down on my bed and texted Alec that I couldn't come over tonight. We were suppose to watch a football game. Friday is always football night.

Damn it.

•••••

By seven in the evening, Tracy and I were battling over the channel to watch. She wanted to watch movies but then since I'm here to guard her, I need to watch the football game instead. There came a knock by the door.

"It's probably Jenna." Tracy chimes.

I stood up and marched to the front door. As soon as I swing it open, a very beautiful blond girl appeared before me. Her eyes were flashing blue, like mine. But hers was more bluer. She was smiling at me and looked insanely pretty. She's the prettiest girl I've seen in this town. I was out of words for a few seconds cos I was obviously fascinated by her beauty.

"Hi." She speaks so cutely.

I noticed her hands were holding onto this little girl's shoulders before her who was also smiling at me. I bet this little girl is Tracy's friend and I'm sure this woman could be her.... Mother? Oh god please let this beautiful woman be her sister. I would get totally broken if she was this little girl's mom.

"Uh, hi." I answered.

"My little sister is here to sleepover with Tracy." She smiles.

My little sister.

She said my little sister.

I was trying really hard to hide my smile after what she said. I think I have a chance. I was hoping my looks, height and body built were enough to impress her. After all, I was the campus' heartthrob since women always come to me. I'm not bragging or anything but I'm just telling the truth. I had my father's charismatic appeal when it comes to women that's the reason why my parents are divorced now. Dad's always out with women behind mom's back and when she found out about everything, she quickly filed for a divorce. Me and Tracy wanted to go with mom of course since dad was a terrible drinker.
