Another Snippet

This is a story that I have been mulling over.  It is called Forever & Always... The main characters are Noah Hathaway, Seth Hathaway (who are twins) & Jae Tucker... the series is set in the final year of high school and Jae is a cross dresser... I'm not sure which twin Jae will finally end up with... This story does not involve Twincest. It is my attempt at a YA book.

SNIPPET

Noah slowly pulled himself out of the dreaming zone; hitting the switch to turn off his alarm... damn he hated mornings.  Especially when he knew that he would be starting at a new school.  He could hear Seth up and about; Seth was his exact opposite.  Seth loved mornings and he loved school, but then again Seth was a nerd.  Seth was just a third of the triplets.  Em was just like Noah.

Noah chuckled when he heard Emily bitching at Seth, and telling him to fuck off before she knee capped him.

“I’m up already,” Noah grumbled when Seth knocked on his door.  Noah sat up as the door opened and his mother stuck her head in.

“Come on, you are going to be late if you don’t hurry” she grinned as he threw his pillow at her.  “Is that anyway to treat your mother?”

Noah scowled in mock anger.  “Yes, especially when she is being a pain in the arse.”

Tanya Hathaway laughed and dodged the second pillow.  “Get up, we are due at the principal’s office first thing.” When Noah growled she laughed again, “I swear Seth is the only normal one out of you all.”

“Says you; about the boy who is gay.”  Noah’s eyes twinkled.

“He may be gay, but at least he is sure about who he is.”  Tanya arched her eyebrow.

“What is that supposed to mean?”  Noah demanded.

“Think about it.”  Tanya winked as she left the room.

Noah headed towards the bathroom, frowning as he thought about what his mother had said.  Was she trying to tell him that she was gay?  He would have to ask Seth, he always knew what was going on.  Emily would be as clueless as he was.

*~*~*

Noah stared out the window as his mother talked to principal Clarkson; he had filled out his schedule and was bored with the rest of the crap that was going on.  Noah sat up straight and stared at the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, she took his breath away, his palms began to sweat and his heart raced.  Now she would make this final year worthwhile.

“Oh my God,” Seth breathed in his ear.  “He is beautiful.”

Noah’s eyes drifted momentarily to the guy that had his arm draped around the girl’s shoulders.  He was laughing at whatever the girl was saying.  Noah’s breath caught as she reached out and pinched the guy’s nipple, which made him laugh harder.

“You know,” Emily said loudly for everyone in the room to hear.  “You should both put you tongue’s back in your mouth and breathe.”

Principal Clarkson looked out the window and shook his head, getting up he opened the window.  “Johnson... Tucker.  What is the rule about sunlight?”

Noah watched as the couple jumped apart and yelled 'sorry'.

Sunlight rule?  What the hell was that?

*~*~*

Noah sat on a table near the canteen and waited for his siblings to arrive.  This was the first year where they had all been split up.  Noah looked up as Adam James walked towards him.

“So newbie, how is your first day so far?”  Adam said as he sat on the table next to Noah.

“It’s okay. I mean I stand out like a sore thumb, but so far it is okay.”

“Whoa,” Adam was mesmerised as Seth and Emily walked towards them.  “There are three of you.”

Noah sighed deeply, pretending that he was dismayed.  “Sadly my friend, it is true.  Adam meet the other parts of me.  This delightful young woman is Em, she is a sweetie, don’t let the snarl fool you.” Noah laughed as she snarled harder, and flipped him off.  “And this handsome devil is Seth.”

“I’m the gay one.”  Seth said as he held out his hand.

Adam burst out laughing as he shook Seth’s hand.  “Yet strangely, I like you.”

“Sorry babe, but you’re not my type.”  Seth said with a completely straight face, which made Adam laugh even harder.

“Look out, look out; the Adam James party is already in full swing.”  Noah spun around and stared at the speaker.  It was the couple from this morning.

“Yeah, well, it wouldn’t be complete without the dastardly duo,” Adam grinned.  “Ruby, Jae, I would like you to meet the Hathaway triplets, Emily, Seth, and Noah... Seth is the gay one.”

“Really?”  Ruby grinned and pulled Seth into a tight hug, his hands slid down Seth’s body and squeezed his arse, which made Seth squeal.

Noah looked at Jae and she was staring back at him, Noah smiled.  His eye’s ran down and then up her body appreciatively. She had the sexiest legs he had ever seen, but the best part was her face.  Long blonde hair that came to her waist, full lips and the greenest eyes he had ever seen.  He could lose himself in those eyes.  Again his breath caught as she bit her lower lip.

“Noah, buddy, I hate to break it to you, but Jae is a guy.”  Ruby said as he let go of Seth.

Noah’s smile faltered, and shame washed over Jae’s face.  “I need to go to...” he let the sentence drop and pointed towards the office.

Jae blushed, today was the first time that he had ever felt embarrassed by the way he was.  Tears came to his eyes as he watched Noah walk away.

“Awww babe,” Ruby held out his arms and Jae walked into them.  “Don’t let some dumbarse wanker get you down.”

“Yeah, that dumbarse wanker is as gay as Seth is.”

Seth nodded, “He just doesn’t know it yet.”
