Chapter 1 - Chapter 1- New leaf

"hold him up", Quinn ordered some boys to hold up a beat-up boy and continued punching him mercessily . In the process ,Quinn punched the boy's left eye and he let out a loud scream. The boys who held him dropped him immediately "D-dude! the guy's bleeding", one of them quivered

Suddenly the classroom door burst open with the principal staring daggers at him, with his sister, Evana and best friend, Anthony behind him

"QUINN McCOVEY TO MY OFFICE!!"

*. *

"Quinn you got me in trouble! I'm so cooked", Anthony ruffled his shiny red-dyed hair. "HEY! Don't put the blame on him!" Evanna warned him revealing her gold honey eyes. "Look Eva I'm not savage like you both-" "Then what are you waiting for?" Quinn interrupted. His voice dark and cold not even sparring Anthony a glance. Anthony cursed and left the school's premises."let's go home" he said calmly.

On getting home they were shocked to see their father, He got up from the soda immediately, his expression dark and scary as he strode forward his 'for sure million dollar loafers' making a 'clack' sound. He stood an inch away from Quinn ,"Dad-" 'Pah'! . Mr. McCovey had given his son a slap. "Hey! Don't lay your hands on hi-" "Shut up! You good for nothing daughter!" He yelled, his veins popped out from his neck and his face appeared to be red with rage "How could you do that to someone's child?! And getting your sister involved! What kind of brother are you?!" The house phone rang and Mr. Ace quickly answered the phone, when the call ended he looked up at Mr. McCovey " I'm afraid Mrs. McCovey was in an accident and she's in the hospital. Kids go take off ur uniforms". "Ace get the car ready!" The man of the house spoke with his tone trembling a bit.

*. *

"Mum!" Evanna yelled and hugged her injured mother who sat on the hospital bed. "My baby, I'm alright, where's your dad?" Their mother said looking at the door her expression revealed the desire to see their father. " He left already, we all know he's a busy man" Quinn replied in a nonchalant manner sitting on the bed. "Quinn", his mother called his name softly but he could feel the pain in it, she cupped his cheek and looked at his eyes. "I know you've been doing all this to get your father's attention but we're you happy with his meeting today?". Quinn frowned

"I'm sorry mom! I'm sorry I'll make things right!". Mrs. McCovey pulled both her kids into a warm embrace .

*Two days later*

The McCovey siblings are seen in a cafe, both had similar attires on. "What are we doing here?", Evanna looked around the shop with her legs crossed. Her Goldilocks bounced from side to side as she looked around the shop inspecting it.

"Hey...", Anthony took a sit next to them, his eyes lingered on Quinn before shifting his gaze to evanna who was staring daggers at him . "Why are you here? After behaving like a douchebag some days ago!", her beautiful honey golden eyes has fire in them.

"I'm sorry" Anthony looked at his hands on his lap trembling - they stopped immediately when he felt a pat on his shoulder, he looked up to meet Quinn smiling at him," I'm sorry for the way I spoke to you too. Your my bro and I shouldn't have behaved like that".

"I'm sorry too for yelling at you, even now", evanna spoke up her eyes teary, "You both are the only ones I got and I don't want to loose you both. Forgive me?", Anthony leaned in and gave her hug.

After that the three teens carried on like nothing happened, they talked and laughed about different stuff. It was just like how they used to be, before becoming the obnoxious trio of the school.

"Dad threatened that if I continue with my bad behavior he might wanna send me to military school", he panicked wishing he could pull his hair out and ease the pain he felt. Evanna laughed "My goodness! You in a buzz cut?! You'll look a shaved raccoon and I don't wanna even talk about the uniform part". "Not funny Eva!" Anthony crossed his arms and pouted his lips and looked at Quinn,. "You've been quiet,what are you up to?"

"I'm getting rid of my girlfriends"he replied

"Wow someone's turning a new leaf"he looked over at his phone to clarify if he was blocking his girlfriends.

"You should do something about your military crisis", Quinn pushed his face away and smirked

Anthony cursed,"Damn! Just when I needed you to comfort me". Evanna chided in, "I mean my handsome brother is right if you don't wanna go to military school,you should start showing your parents the good in you. I mean that's what's up with me and Quinn".

Anthony slouched back on his chair," then what should I do then? Any ideas?".

"You could volunteer for a community service or something "Evanna suggested while taking selfies. "Screw that and screw you! You hate that stuff and you want me to do it?!", he retorted, rolling his eyes. "You curse too much for my liking "she eyes him in disgust and gave him the middle finger.

"Don't fight here, it's a shop where you drink tea and have cake not some wrestling arena", Quinn grew impatient of their behavior and spoke up. "Look you can start from behaving like a gentleman at home, you could assist ur sisters with chores or help old people cross the street".

"That's way easier. See! this is better than what you suggested" he made funny faces to irritate Eva.

"Eva's idea isn't half bad, we could all do it together"

"WHAT!" Eva and Anthony shouted in unison. 'what the hell is he thinking ' the two of them thought the same inwardly and looked at each other to think of their answers. "Well..." Anthony spoke up, "it's one of the ways to redeem ourselves so I'm up for it!". Anthony buried his face in his hands to hide his annoyed expression.

"Me too, let's make it children based" , Evanna suggested. "Not half bad", Anthony revealed his face . "We could do it tomorrow at the central park. We could get the chef to bake cakes and make ice cream for the kids", Quinn said enthusiastically. "I could get my mom to arrange a stage play for some cartoons ", Anthony brought up an idea too. Anthony's mother is a well known actress, Mrs. Freya Haywond acts mostly in Italian movies, born in the United States but raised in Italy."But won't that take forever? We've got to do this quick -"

"Eva relax, we have a whole three months to ourselves, we'll sort it out", Quinn reassured his little sister.

They carried on about the topic of the event they were planning. Once again they are lost in their world as they carry about the topic. Time had flew by as they decided to depart and head to their various homes as the beautiful blue sky got dark, clouds became darker too which means rain will pour soon.

In the car, Quinn and evanna maintained silence between them as they were both busy with their phones. Quinn decided to text Anthony, because something has been bothering him.

"Hey"

"Yo, you home yet?"

"Nah still on the road. Can I ask a question?"

"What's up?"

"Do you like Evanna?"

"Yh! She's like a sister to me"

"That's not what I want to hear "

"It's just a crush, it'll be over soon"

"You've had a crush on her for a year now "

"It's been that long? I'm head over heels then "

Quinn sighed and put off his phone, looked at his sister then looked out the window. His lips curved up into a smirk. ' you better act quickly Anthony '.
