Levi Marcus's Story

Levi decided to take a walk around the city. He did spend most of his time in the city, but he decided to walk around. He was wearing his favorite shirt, a Superman shirt, with a white button up open shirt over it and a classy light grey-tan button up jacket over that. He was wearing some plan, slightly dark blue jeans and some old faded blue all star converse. He was just walking around with a smile on his face. He waved, shook hands, and greeted people as he passed them on the sidewalk. Some people just gave him a weird like and said "What the fuck is wrong with you, kid?", but others just smiled and greeted him back, taking advantage of the warm and nice personality of this boy wearing a superman shirt. He liked doing this because it reminded people that not everyone in the world is out to hurt or steal from them.

Levi was already late getting home because he had to stay after school for the chess match. His parents were proud of him for getting straight A's and passing all his classes, but they wanted their boy to do all that and be a football player like his father was. Levi hated sports though. He specially disliked most of the football players. They always made fun of him for having a name that was also the name of a brand of jeans. Yet, Levi went around almost everywhere with a big smile on his face. He was carrying around an old light purple backpack on his back and his one of his arms he had a piano keyboard. He walked past and greeted the people on the sidewalk, then he came to the park. It was getting dark and the street lights and the lights in the park were starting to come on. Not many people were left in the park, but that didn't stop Levi. He went and sat on an empty bench. He took his backpack off his back and sat it underneath the bench. He took a pair of gloves that had the fingers cut off out of his bag and put them on. Then, he started playing Superman (it's not easy) on the piano keyboard. He then played some original song's he made himself. Levi didn't sing any lyrics though because he believes he's a terrible singer.

Fallon
Fallon had his standard army duffel bag on his back as he stepped off the city bus, earning looks from everyone seeing as he was still dressed in his combat uniform. He were a smile on his face happy to be home. He would have had the airport call him a taxi to take him straight home, but he wasn’t ready yet. He made his way to one of the city’s downtown bars having a few drinks, a few people sticking up a friendly conversation with him. After a few beers, he grabbed his duffle bag heading out. He was enjoying the night life for the first time in three years. He walked casually through the park seeing a young kid playing the Piano, he was really good.

“Hey kid, you should be playing professionally, your better than the park.” he smirked as he complemented the young kid.

He sat down at a bench across from where the pianist was playing setting his bag next to him, deciding whether or not he wanted to head home or wait until tomorrow. He was hoping his parents wouldn’t be there. He had a pretty god chance of them not being there, but he figured he hang out here and enjoy the scenery for a bit, rent a hotel room, and head home in the morning.

Levi looked up at the guy that had came up with the same big smile on his face. "Thank-you for that sir, but not many people become famous or anything just by playing an instrument anymore." He said with a laugh and looked up at the guy every so often as he played. Once he finished the song, he paused and looked up at the guy. "You need to know how to sing now. I'm Levi, by the way. Nice to meet you." He said, same big happy-go-lucky smile on his face. "Well, sorry sir, but I have to get back home. I've got school tomorrow. Maybe I'll see you sometime."

Levi then stood up and walked home. Yes, Levi walked all the way home. Carrying bag, keyboard, and all. When he got home, he ate dinner, did his home work, practiced the piano, read some comics, then went to bed.

The next morning, he had decided to skip school, like he did every other Friday, and played his keyboard in the park.

Levi got a ride from his Mother to school. He went in the dorrway of the school and waited for his mom's car to get out of sight. Once it was gone, he walked away from the school with that same big smile on his face, greeting everyone he passed. Today he was wearing a red flash shirt, and some jeans and old red converse. He was carrying the same keyboard he was carrying the other day and he was also carrying a green turtle backpack on his back.

Levi sat in the same exact place he had sat the day before. He started off playing a Secrets piano cover by One Republic. He still didn't sing any lyrics, but he played as best he could without any sheet music. Once he was done with that song, he went on playing a few other songs. My Imortal by Evanescene, Just A Kiss by Lady Antembellum, and, his favorite, [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JqMr6yt5VA&feature=channel&list=UL]Superman It Ain't Easy by Five For Fighting.

As Levi was playing one of his friends came up to him with a guitar. "Hey, Levi! Do me a favor?" His friend said as he sat down next to Levi. "Sure, anything you need." Levi said, sitting his keyboard on the bench next to him with a big smile on his face. "Sing the Superman by Joe Brooks for me while I play the chords." His friend said. Levi's big smile faded a little. "But that song's about a girl. I don't like no one." Levi said as he looked around at the people in the park and his smile returned. "Sure you do! You like that one girl from your English class." His friend said with a big smile then started playing his guitar and some passer-by-ers came around to listen. He leaned over to Levi and said "Sing." Levi rolled his eyes then started singing and he wasn't bad at all.

"Oh thanks." Rome smiled looking down at her dress like she had when Jordan complemented it. She smiled to him "Come in make yourself at home, everyone should be showing up shortly." she said happily "Drinks are in the bar out back, I think the bartender is already there and there's food too." she smiled

Fallon handed Quinn's leash to Rome "All cleaned up for your party" he smirked.

"Thank you Birdy!" she said petting the dog before letting him off the leash.

"Don't even start with that name" he rolled his eyes "I need a drink." he said heading out back.

"I'm always going to call you that, always have always will." she laughed before looking to her friends. About to say something though being interrupted by the door bell. she opened the door to Fraya and Andy. "You guys made it!" she said happily gently hugging Fraya and then Andy. Soon more people starting to show up. Rome was sitting in one of the chairs out back visiting with her brother it was no use answering the door now people were just showing up. This was one of those parties where friends, of friends, of friends showed up.

"Shit!" Rome said taking her phone out.

"You okay there Lottie?" Fallon asked, his nickname sounded so weird to Rome after all these years.

"No I forgot to invite someone and I feel really bad!" she said going through her contacts landing on Levi Marcus. They weren't best friends, but he had tutored her all last year in math and you could say they got kind of close. She would always apologize when Derrick or her other friends would make fun of him. Levi was a cool guy at least she thought so. She shot him a text, that seemed a little too long but she sent it anyways:

Hey, It's Rome, don't know if you still have my number?
Anyways I totally forgot and I feel super bad, but I'm having
a party tonight and I would love it if you came, it started like
an hour ago and it will probably go until 3 or 4. Sorry again
hope you can make it! See you soon? Maybe!

Levi was finishing up a song on his keyboard when his phone went off. He reached in his pocket and took out his weird yet cool phone to see a text from Rome. He still had his big smile on when he texted back:

Okay. I'm on my way.

Levi stood up, turtle backpack still on his back, and keyboard in arm. He didn't feel like going home and changing, so he just got his special grey button up jacket out of his tutle backpack and put it on. He walked all the way to Romes house, smiling and greeting people the whole way there. He heard people ask themselves what's wrong with him, but they always do that because it's weird someone being so nice and possitive and smilly around this town. When he got there, there was a whole bunch of cars that belonged to a lot of people. He saw people letting themselves into Romes house. So, he walked up to the door, smile on his face, and walked in. There was a lot of people in the house, some of the people he didn't even know. He tried looking around for Rome, but without much luck. So he just kind of stood around. Some people gave him weird looks because he was holding his keyboard in one arm, he had a turtle backpack on, and he was wearing a red Flash shirt. But he ignored all the looks and just continued standing there and looking around with his smile on his face that no one could get ride of.

Jordan tried staying by Chase. She knew some of the people there, but they were either the jerks from the football team, or the bitchy girls, or Jordan didn't even remember them going to there school. "I'm glad you found something to wear." Jordan told Chase in a slightly teasey voice and a small smile. "Don't act all excited." Chase replied with a kinda weird look at Jordan. "What? You no likey?" He added, standing up and twirling around once then laughing. Jordan just rolled her eyes at him them looked around at everyone. "Do you like what I'm wearing or not, Oreo?" Chase said, starting to poke Jordan's arm. "Yes, I like what your wearing. I was just hoping you were going to wear something pink." Jordan said in a small voice, that almost sounded like a child, with a small pout on her face. "And now I want some Oreo's!" She added in a slightly louder voice, smiling slightly this time. "Aww. It's okay Jordie. Maybe someday." Chase said, acting like he was talking to a little kid and slightly patting Jordan on the head. "Don't call me Jordie." Jordan said then stood up.

Jordan started walking around when she ran into Levi. She smiled when she saw him. To Jordan he was the guy that stayed a little kid and always acted like he had know other feelings than happiness. "Hey, Levi! You looking for Rome?" Jordan asked him. "Come with me. I know where she is." She added as she grabbed his wrist and lead him to where Rome was in the back by her brother. "Hey, Rome!" Jordan called as she came up still holding Levi's wrist. "Levi's here!" She added when her and Levi made it to where Rome and Fallon were.

Fallon was talking with Rome, as he took a shot of tequila that one of the many girl that where trying to get with him had brought him. He glanced up at the young kid.

“Hey look who it is its Keyboard.” Fallon smiled to the kid before looking to his sister “Wait you know him?” he said looking to her.

“Uh…yeah. “ she smiled “You doing okay Jordan?” she asked feeling a bit of a buzz herself.

“Well I approve! Date my sister please she needs a good guy” he smirked, it was obvious he had had too much.

Rome let out a nervous laugh “Shut up Birdy God, go to bed!” she rolled her eyes as she got up and pulled the two away from him “Sorry Levi” she sighed. “He’s messed up.” It killed her to admit it but she knew he was different.

Levi was a little nervous and shocked when Jordan grabbed his wrist. He was a little scared it would bruise or leave a mark. When they got to where Rome was, his smile got a little bigger, if that was even possible. Then he saw the guy he had meant at the park the day before. "Hello." He said with a smile and the tone people get when they wanted to laugh. "Hey, Rome." He added. His smile then grow a little more bigger, even though that may not have been possibly possible, and he wanted to laugh at what Fallon had said. He was flattered by the commit, but he knew Rome was embarrassed by it when she pulled Jordan and him away from her brother. "I think he's funny." He said smiling.

After Jordan brought Levi to where Rome was with Fallon and Rome asked how she was doing, she said "I'm…doing okay." She said as she looked at everyone. "I need something…something strong." Jordan added with a blank look and not much emotion in her voice. She went up to the bartender and asked for the strongest drink they could mix up. Then Jordan took her drink and stood next to Levi and looked at Rome and Fallon. She took a sip of her drink then smiled. "I'm good now." Jordan said. 

When Jordan heard what Rome's brother said, she almost busted up laughing. "That was the funniest thing so far tonight!" She said, laughing as Rome got up and told her brother off then pulled her and Levi away from her brother. 




Chase got tired of sitting/standing around in the house and was getting tired of all the girls. So he decided to get up and go find Jordan or Rome. He went to the bar and got a few shots of tequila, but not enough to get him too gone. On his third shot, he took a quick look around and found Jordan, Rome, and that Levi-jeans kid. Chase remembered the kid, he had bullied him for a few years until he meant Jordan, then he stopped. He took his shot then walked up to the girls and Levi. "Hey girls. Hi Levi." Chase said as he stood next to Jordan, slightly touching her back. "Stop touching me!" Jordan said and moved slightly behind Rome like a little kid does when their trying to hide.

Rome rolled her eyes “Yeah he has that effect of humor on everyone…except me.” She sighed before smiling at Levi “I’m really glad you could come, I’ve been meaning to text you, I miss our study sessions and getting side tracked on the PlayStation” she laughed

Rome glanced to Jordan when she hid behind her, being the protective person she was even if they were barely friends looked at chase. Giving him a small curious look “Had a little too much” she said trying to make it playful though it came out a bit bitchier then she meant. Butm, before anyone could reply or say anything her blood literally ran cold when she heard the football team cat calling her, she was sure Derrick was behind it.

She turned to face them smiling politely “What don’t you guys cat call a piece of ass you can actually get.” She cocked her head to the side

“Ouch!” one of the guys called.

“Come on Candy don’t act like that.” There he was Rome thought to herself as Derrick walked up to her. Her stomach tightened and she wanted to throw up, Chase had a temper, her brother had an even worse military temper, Jordan already didn’t like him, and neither did Levi and she knew Derrick was going to try something. This wasn’t going to end well.

Chase was a little confused at why Jordan stepped away from him. Then his eyes narrowed at Derrick when he came up to Rome. Personally, Chase didn't have anything against the guy, other than the fact that Derrick messed with Rome a lot. "What you want, Derrick?" Chase said as he narrowed his eyes at Derrick and pushed his sleeves up. He didn't look as big and intimidating as he usually did with his baggy jackets and baggy jeans, but he still looked tough. He stood in between Derrick and Rome, facing Derrick, looking him in the eye with narrowed eyes, his thumbs hanging on his jean pockets to make it easy if he had to make a move in a violent way on the guy. Witch would be bad considering Chase was wearing a white shirt.




Jordan watched as Rome said something to Chase, but got distracted when she saw Derrick walk up. She sat her drink down and narrowed her eyes at him as she crossed her arms. She was about to go up and snap at him before she saw Chase go up and do his hot tough guy act. Wait…I didn't just think that. Jordan thought then went back to glaring at Derrick. She was slightly scared that Chase and Derrick were going to get in a fight, but that was probably likely to happen anyway. Jordan lifted her foot a little off the ground like she was going to walk up to stand next to Chase in front of Derrick, but she stopped herself and stood where she was next to Rome now. She was hoping the nothing would happen, but that's too much to hope for, obviously.

Derrick laughed his usual cocky football player laugh as Chase stepped in front of Rome and apparently the scene had caught Fallon’s attention as well because he was leaning against one of the pillars near the back door watching the even play out. He tucked his dog tags in his shirt ready to jump into the fight if he had to. He looked to his sister making sure she was okay. He could tell by her body language she was nervous and scared.

“Look and this mother fucker, he really thinks he can take me.” Derrick stepped forward closing in on Chase’s face. “Why don’t you take your ghetto ass and your hood rat friend and go play with hop-scotch elsewhere.” He smirked, looking straight into his eyes.

Rome’s eyes widened as she started breathing heavy, her jaw literally dropped, she had to do something. The crowed that had gathered started chanting “FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!”
“Oh god. Oh god! I think I’m going to throw up.” She whispered as her tears started to water.

Chase had this sick smile on his face as he listened to Derrick, but his smile dropped from his face as soon as Derrick said what he said about Jordan. "She ain't no hood rat." Chase said through his teeth, his hands in fist now. Then, before anyone could catch, he shot his rock hard fist right into Darrick's nose. Chase could feel something crack as his fist made contact with Derrick's nose. Before Derrick even had a chance for a comeback, Chase tripped him and grabbed the back of his head, slamming it onto the ground. Chase put his knee onto Derricks arm and his other knee onto Derricks other arm that was not pinned against his back. "Take. It. Back." Chase said angrily as he had Derrick pinned face first onto the ground. "Take back what you said about Jordan, now, bitch! Before I put you stupid ass in the hospital!" Chase said a little louder and angrier where everyone could hear, there was a lot more cussing, but let's just leave that part out.

Jordan had tears running down her face when she saw watched what Chase did, her mouth opened in shock. "Chase! No!" She yelled then ran up and grabbed Chases arm, pulling him off Derrick and not knowing what else to do.

Derrick let out a pained noise struggling to get out of Chases grip. He held hid bloody probably broken nose. He felt Chase let go when Jordan grabbed he stood up, as if nothing was wrong. Rome knew what was going to happen next, she had seen it happen and as much as she wanted to move or speak she was frozen. Tears were in her eyes but she was trying hard not to let them fall. Damn it! ROME MOVE! She yelled in her mind as Derrick looked to the group of football players. They were not in a good mood, half the football team made their way over to Chase pushing Jordan harshly out of the way. They took turns throwing punch after punch.

Fallon walked up to them calmly as if nothing was happening “You boys better scram, I hear getting arrested gets you kicked off the team, I only know from experience.” He smirked causing the guys to freeze and move away from Chase, instantly.

Fallon helped Chase up grabbing a hold of him tightly “Calm down.” He said in a stern voice “Lets go get you cleaned up” his voice was calm and quiet. “Come on Jordan.” He said wanting to make sure she was okay.

Rome swallowed hard as she looked at her brother, she really still couldn’t move from her position next to Levi and she felt so stupid.

Jordan yelled "Ay!" when one of the football players pushed her away from Chase. She watched in terror as they bet Chase. She tried running up to help him, but was pushed away every time. She eventually fell on the ground and just sat there, not willing to get up and try to help again. When Fallon came up and stopped the football players, Jordan was slightly happy, but no one would be able to tell. You could see it in her eyes that she was upset. When Fallon told her to come, she got up and walked with him and Chase as her head looked down to the ground and she crossed her arms, glancing up and looking at Rome and Levi with a very sad face. She knew it wasn't Romes fault, but for some reason Jordan felt that it was all her own fault.



Chase was breathing heavy and having trouble taking breaths as the football players bet him. When Fallon stopped them, he tried, with all his will, to launch himself back at Derrick, but he couldn't. So he did the one thing he knew would get anyone he knew who lived around him pissed off. He spitted, right into Derrick's personal bubble, landing on Derrick shoe. Chases shirt was all messed up and dirty, but he didn't really care about that. He couldn't really hear anyone, he had too many thoughts that came out of rage running through his mind. He looked around, looking a few people in the eyes. He couldn't even tell what he was saying himself. Then, Chase looked at one of the people that actually mattered to him at this moment, and he could tell, that whatever he did, she was disappointed in him. Very disappointed.

Levi just stood there. This was one of the only times you wouldn't see a smile on his face. He just had a shocked look. He wanted to do something, but couldn't because he was too scared of getting hurt himself, plus he wanted to make sure Rome was alright. He watched as Fallon came up and helped Chase then told Jordan to come with. Part of him wanted to go with them to make sure Jordan and Chase was alright, but he stayed by Rome to make sure she was okay.

"Are you okay, Rome?" Levi asked Rome with a conserned look and voice. He looked up and saw Jordan looking at Rome and him. It made him feel really sad and bad the way she looked at them. He thought maybe she was dissappointed in them for not doing something, but what was he supose to do? If anything it would make everything worst. It was times like this that reminded himself why he liked superheroes. He liked them because stuff like this wouldn't happen. There would always be someone there to help and that person could take on ten people and win without a single scratch or bruise on their body. Sadly, the only place that's like that is movie and books. There only stories, and this is real life. "Do you want to go with them?" He added as he asked Rome with the same concerned look and slightly less concerned voice.

Rome closed her eyes for a moment, unfortunately it wasn’t like she could call the cops and there was underage drinking, probably a few kids smoking pot, and who knows what else. She took a small breath glancing to Levi.

“No actually I feel really sick.” She managed in a small voice, she wasn’t even sure she said it out loud. “Come on.” She said in a hush tone as she went into the house, following after her brother and the other two.

Fallon led the two to his bathroom grabbing a wash rag and a few band-aids setting them on the counter. “You alright Jordan?” he asked having the same caring personality as his sister. “Had he not still been in high school I would have loved to kick his ass.” He laughed “Unfortunately, the government owns me and that would be bad for my record.” He shook his head.

“I’m sorry Levi, this wasn’t supposed to happen…I’m really sorry.” She said as they walked up the stairs to her brothers room. She stood outside the bathroom not sure if they blamed her they had every right to, they probably thought this was some prep joke she had planned. She looked to Chase then Jordan.

“I’m so sorry. I…I understand if you blame me” she said hanging her head.
Fallon looked to his sister. “Yeah, they should blame you for freezing up, I mean you could have run over and kissed the guy, that would have stopped everything, obviously he has it bad for you.” Fallon added his humor to the equation like always.

Jordan just sat there. Not sure what to say or do. She just nodded when Fallon had asked her if she was okay. She was actually shaking a little bit, scared out of her mind. Chase, on the other hand, was still angry. This time he was angry because he actually let Derrick off the ground. "It's not your fault. I don't blame you." Chase told Rome as she came in. Then he looked at Jordan. He knew that this whole event was going to come back to him one way or an other. "Jordan, I was just standing up for you." Chase said in the calmest voice he's had all night.

Jordan looked up at Chase with narrow eyes, arms crossed, and  a little bit of anger to her look. "Stand up for me?" She said in a quiet voice with a bit of an attitude. "All he did was call me some stupid name." She added, a little louder this time. 

"He called you a hood rat, Jordan. What was I suppose to do?" Chase said in a slightly angry voice. 

"When are you gonna get this through your thick skull that I don't give a fuck what people call me." Jordan replied, a little angry this time. 

Chase shook his head a little. "You might not care, but I do." Chase said. This caught Jordan a little off guard, then she rolled her eyes and walked out of the room, not even  acknowledging Rome and Levi being there. She walked down the stairs, and looked around. Not knowing where to go, she went out the front door and looked around again, not knowing where to go. Against her better judgement though, she just went and sat on the steps of the house. Hoping, no, praying that if someone does come after her, it won't be Chase. 

On that note, after Jordan left the room, Chase said "Maybe I should go talk to her." Then he stood up, but didn't make it far when he started feeling all the effects of what had happened.

Levi, being the person he is, didn't want to add to the problem. He looked at Rome with a slight smile on his face when she spoke. "It's okay. This house is full of teenagers and there friends and the friends of there friends, there was going to end up being a fight anywhere anyways." He said with a reasureing smile. When they got to where everyone else was, he didn't really know what to say. He didn't really like Chase because he used to pick on him, and he didn't want to make Jordan even more upset than she already was. He just stood there next to Rome not knowing what to say. He watched what had happened between Jordan and Chase and almost took it upon himself to go comfrot Jordan after she left. When Chase tried going then stopped because of pain, Levi looked at Rome and Fallon, waiting to see if one of them would go after her.

"Is anyone going to go after her?" Levi said as he looked from Rome to Fallon then to Rome again. "I know Chase wanted to, but we all know that's not the answer." He added as he gave a quick glance to Chase. "Obviously, Jordan doesn't want to talk to him and he's still in to much pain to be walking. I mean, look at the guy." He added explaining what he was saying. Then he waited to see if Rome, or even Fallon, would go find her, but if they don't go, he'll go look for Jordan himself.

Levi shook his head, looking a bit mad as he turned and walked passed Chase and out of the room. He was hoping Rome would have gone after Jordan, but nope, she was taking too long. He went down the stairs and asked a few people if they've seen her, when, of course out of all the people, he ran into his twin brother, John.

"John? What are you doing here?" Levi asked, sounding a bit angry as he glared at Jonathan.
"I came here with the guys. I saw what some of the guys did to that Chase guy and his girl." Jonny replied with a smile, obviously he was drinking a little.
Levi looked at him a bit shocked. "His girl?" He said, looking quite surprised. Then he shook his head a little. "Have you seen her?" Levi asked his brother. 
First Jonny gave him a look, not knowing what he was talking about at all. "Saw who?"
"Jordan!" Levi said a little too loudly and angrily.
"Is that that chick that broke one of those girls noses?" Jonny asked as he pointed the a small group of girls across the room.
"Yes!" Levi replied as he put his hand on his forehead and wondered why he had to be the smart one.
"Oh, yeah. I think she's cool." Jonny said then Levi gave him a look. "She went out the front door, kiddo." He added.
"Thanks. And we're twins!" Levi said before he turned around and went out the front door and seeing Jordan sitting on the front steps.

"Hey there, Jordan." Levi said as he slowly but surly came up and sat on the steps next to Jordan. He still had his turtle backpack on, but he must have left his keyboard in Fallon's room. "Are you okay?" He added as he put his hands on his knees and leaned forward slightly trying to look at her eyes.

Jordan was just sitting on the front steps, going through her thoughts, then listened as she heard the door open behind her. She would have looked back, but didn't, thinking it was going to be Chase or Rome. When she heard their voice, she looked back and was a little surprised to see Levi. "Hey." Jordan said quietly, not even knowing if he heard her, when he said hey. "I'm…fine." She added when Levi asked if she was okay. 

When Jordan noticed Levi was trying to make eye contact, she scotched over a little and looked away. "What do you want?" Jordan said in a quiet but cold voice, looking him straight in the eye, clearly showing just how angry she was.




Chase was a bit sad and shocked as to what had just happened. He sat down on the couch and was hunched over, looking at the ground with both hands on the back of his neck. He was like this for a few minutes then stood up out of the blue. He walked over to Rome and Fallon. "Hey, Rome. Can I ask you something?" Chase asked, standing in front of Rome with his hands slightly in his pockets, his tie all messed up and cricked, one of the sleeves of his shirt had a rip right above the elbow witch maxed the sleeve hang down a little more than it was suppose too. 

Levi smiled slightly at Jordan. He was glad that she was actually talking. He took a quick look around when she asked him what he wanted then he looked back at her. "I just wanted to make sure you were okay. You seemed angry." He answered.

Jonny had watched his brother go out the front door and he shook his head. He was one of those people that thinks that every girl his brother says something about or hangs out with that his brother must like them. So this was a big red flag for Jonny. He headed toward the door and was stopped by Derrick who was looking for Rome. "If I see her I'll point her your way." Jonny said with a smile then stepped out the door and saw Levi sitting down next to some girl on the steps.

"Hey brother. Who's this?" Jonny said crossing his arms with a fake smile on his face.
"This is Jordan." Levi answered slowly like he was explain a very complicated math problem to a four year old.
"We gotta talk." Jonny said grabbing Levi's turtle backpack on Levi's back and pulling him down the steps and over in the grass throwing him down. "What you doin' with Chases girl?" Jonny said in an angry voice looking at Levi with a disappointed voice.
"Chases girl? You know what, just back off. I don't like her like that. We're just friends." Levi said angrily as he stood up. "What do you care anyways?" He added.
"I don't care. But I know Chase and you've seen how protective he is of her." Jonny said, practically yelling.
Levi looked his brother in the eye blankly. "I really don't care." He said. "Bye." He added starting to walk back to where Jordan was on the steps.
"Fine!" Jonny yelled as he watched Levi walk back. "Wait, have you seen Rome?" Jonny added as he caught up with Levi.
"Upstairs." Levi said.
"Okay, thanks Levy." Jonny said teasing Levi a little bit than ran back to the house. As he came up the steps he stopped and looked at Jordan. "You are just some hood rat, aren't you?" Jonny said with the slightest hint of a smile on his face and didn't even give Jordan a chance to reply and walked inside and up the stairs seeing Rome, Chase, and Fallon in a room. "Hey, Rome, Derrick's looking for ya'."

Levi walked back to the steps and Jordan after he saw his brother go inside. "Sorry about him. He has this thing were he thinks every girl I talk to or hang out with I supposedly like them." He said with a slight smile as he looked at Jordan.

Levi frowned as Jordan spoke. He didn't know where she lived, but he was almost certain it wasn't a good idea to go walking around a city, any city in that manner, at might. A specially with Jordan wearing that dress and everything there's no chance she'll get all the way home without some guys messing with her. 

"You can't go." Levi said quietly as he stood on the steps of Rome's house and watch Jordan go down Rome's driveway and turn on to the sidewalk. Levi turned around and started a fast run inside and around the people. He broke into a run as he made in up the stairs, then even a faster run as he hit the hallway and ran to where the others were. "Jordan left!" He said as he made it in to the doorway of the room and was trying to catch his breath bending down and putting his hands on his knees. He glanced up once he almost had his breathing regular and saw everyone staring at him with big, almost confused, eyes. "Jordan. Left." He said again a little slowing and calmer. "She said she was going home." He added in the same slow and calm voice as he tried catching his breath a little bit. His face was a bright red, he was sweating a little, and he was breathing heavy. He didn't look all that good, but you could tell he was scared and worried by the look in his eyes as he stared at everyone.

Jonny felt a little guilty as he listened to his brother. He shifted eyes from the small group to his brother. He knew some of the people in that very room he was in cared about that little "hood rat", and truthfully, he didn't like it. He didn't even understand why, yet only, his brother was there, but Jordan and Chase? He just didn't get it. Then Jonny started thinking:

Jonny smiled then saw his brother giving him a strange look. "What? I just think its a good thing she finally decided to leave. It I knew she was going to leave because of some fight between Ghetto boy here and my buddy-ol-pal, the team would have set up a fight as soon as the party started so we could have got rid of this guy and Jordie faster." Jonny said with a mean wicked smile glancing a few times at Chase to keep track of how fast he was getting mad. Jonny always has to act like everything is just all fun-and-games, always playing with people's emotions. He even teases, picks on, and slightly bullies all the girls he thinks he likes just like he's still a little kid. It's amazing he hasn't gotten sued for harassment yet. It must be because of his charming looks.
