together we will be unbroken

"My God yo two eat a lot." Jake says as he points his fork at Stephen and I.

"It's probably genetic." Andy smiles.

"You know we're not really related right?" Stephen asks.

"You're not?" They ask.

Stephen gives me a can I tell them? look. I nod. "Well after Laci's parents parents died she came to live with me and my family. Well she was already family, I mean we were raised like brother and sister so..."

"Oh Laci I'm so sorry." Jinnx says. They are all giving me the look. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten the look. It's why I don't tell people my parents died. Ashley looks at me, I'm sorry. he mouths.

"It's fine." I say nonchalantly. "I'm over it." I lie.

"It must have been really hard on you. How old were you when it happened?" Asks Mrs. Biersack.

I really hate talking about this. "I was ten."

"Oh God... I couldn't even imagine." Jake sighs.

Ronnie gives me a look. Are you okay? He mouths. I nod. "Hey Jake, I bet I could kick your ass at CoD." You're a saint Ronnie Radke.

"Dude no you can't." Jake says.

"You wanna bet?" Ronnie Challenges.

"Yeah, I bet I could kill you one hundred times before you hit thirty, the loser has to buy the other one pizza."

"You're on." Ronnie smirks.

They sprint down to the basement and we all follow. "Hey we should have a tournament." David says.

"That's a great Idea." Andy replies.

"It would be easier with another Xbox." Jake says as he and Ronnie log on.

"We have two in our bus." I interject.

Jake's head snaps in my direction. "Go get them."

"Way ahead of you sister." I say.

"Oh my god stop camping and fight like a man!" I exclaim.

"I'm not camping." Zack replies.

"Dude you're totally camping." Jinnx says.

"It's no biggie." I creep up behind him. "He won't be camping for long." I open fire on Zack and watch his screen go red, then his avatar falls to the ground.

"I believe we have a winner, again." Jinxx smiles.

"Championship round motherfuckers!" CC yells. It's me, Jake, Stephen, and Ronnie.

"You're going down Tum." Jake smiles as we start the game.

"We'll see about that." I smirk. We play until someone gets to one hundred.

Ronnie gives me the we-are-an-alliance look. I nod and go find Jake. "You're making a big mistake Tum." Jake teases.

"Oh am I?" I'm not in his view. I pull out my rocket launcher and get him in my sights.

"God damn it!" Stephen yells. I open fire on Jake.

"Fuck I didn't even see you!" He exclaims.

"Am I still going down?" I tease.

"Oh hell yeah!" He exclaims.

I'm now at ninety-nine kills, and Jake is at ninety-five. "I swear to god if you kill me." Jake yells.

"Whatcha gonna do about it punk?" I tease. I get him in my sights and start raining bullets down on him.

"Fuck you Tum!" He exclaims when I win.

"Maybe later babe." I wink.

"Like hell you will." Stephen scolds. We all laugh.

"Hey Jake, I want a buffalo chicken pizza." I smile.

"Yeah yeah yeah.." He gives me a little shove. I haven't felt this happy in a while.
