It all started with a call.

“Hello?” I answered

“Hi John, It’s your grandma, I just thought i’d remind you know that your cousins Jack and Mia will be coming over in a while, and they’ll be sleeping over.”

I silently swore, and put on a false smile “Sure, grandma, thanks for the reminder.”

I hung up the phone and frowned as I looked around my room. I grabbed a shirt, underwear, and some shorts as I walked across the hall into my bathroom. I turned the shower on and stripped down, but before i got in, i looked at myself in the mirror. I didnt look bad for fourteen, I was tall, about 5 foot 9, roughly 130, fairly muscular from my years of football, with dirty blond short hair. I got in and out of the shower in a few minutes, got dressed, and cleaned my room.

I walked across the hall, smiling to myself due to the awareness that, besides my mom, i was home alone for now. Both my sisters were away at camps for the week, and my dad lived a few hours away. My mom’s boyfriend was at work and would be back in an hour or so.

I sat down on a chair and slid my way to the computer on my desk in my room. I began to play some games online before i heard the doorbell about 30 minutes later. I walked downstairs to answer the door, and saw my 2 cousins smiling at me through the doorframe. My cousins Jack and Mia were here to stay the night, and i had no idea at the time what it would lead to.

My cousin Jack was special. He had trouble fitting in socially, and sometimes he got on my nerves, but otherwise i thought he was nice. He had a bad temper, and wasn’t very good at knowing when he was angering people, but i dealt with him. He was a bit taller then me, probably because he was 15, around 5 foot 11, a fair build, light skinned, short brown hair, and brown eyes like me.

On the other hand, my cousin Mia was cute. She was about 10 years old, just starting to develop, and a great personality.
