King Kayden and King Jayden’s words played in my head like a broken record all night. The venom, the hostility in their voices and the anger in their eyes flashed in front of me repeatedly.

Just as I was about to cut her off, telling her I didn’t care what they thought of me, which was a lie because I cared very much, Cathy cut me off.
“Don’t even try denying it. It’s obvious you like them, Kiki.” Said, Cathy
I blushed and looked away! How did she figure it out? I opened my mouth, closed it, and repeated the action, not knowing how to refute it and tell her she couldn’t tell anyone. I was twelve years old; they were thirty-two. It was wrong, but whenever I
