Adam sighed as he walked out of his final class of the day. Usually, he was in a good mood when school ended, but the girl he had grown a small crush on had rejected him, one of his friends was in detention and on top of everything else, Bree, Chase and Leo weren't waiting on him.

Turns out, Bree and Leo just got stuck in a class for longer then needed. "When can Ms. Thristle retire? She's so slow!" His sister had complained while opening her locker.

"Where's Chase?" Adam asked his siblings. "I haven't had a chance to tease him today." He added as a joke.

"I haven't seen him since before science." Bree shrugged as she closed her locker and slung her back over her shoulder. "But we need to find him. Mr. Davenport wants to get training done before he and Tasha go to the Bahamas."

The three of them split up, and Adam decided to look in the locker room. Since Chase had switched up his schedule, who knows if he had P.E. last.

He leaned his head inside and that's when he saw Chase backed up against the wall, holding his bag to his chest protectively with Chad, Kyle and Josh cornering him.

"What's in the bag, Chasey?" Kyle spoke in a mocking tone as he tried to pull it away from him. "Just hand it over."

"Stop it, Kyle. I have to get home." Chase protested, receiving shoves from both Chad and Josh instead.

"Then give us the bag, nerd." Kyle beckoned with his hand. "Doesn't your daddy have enough money to replace it anyway?"

"Enough!" Adam yelled, startling the three seniors and his brother as he started walking toward them. "If you hurt my brother, I'll kill you. I swear I'll kill you all."  The three teens left the room without another word, Kyle making sure to shoulder check Chase on the way out. "Are you okay, Chase?"

"Yeah." Chase smiled, pulling the bag strap onto his shoulder. "Thanks for the save."

"Anytime." Adam smiled as he wrapped his arm around Chase's shoulder. "Seriously, let me know if they mess with you again."

"I doubt they will." And with that, the two brothers sprinted to get to the house in order not to face Mr. Davenport's unbridled stress.
