The picture is Global Graffiti representing Andre :) He's the only one I'll give you guys a picture of. Other than that, I think most of you have probably built up your own mental images of the characters by now and I don't want to ruin that -cough- TWILIGHT- cough-. :3 But, I am curious to know what you guys envision the characters to look like. I think the only descriptions I've given are that Noah and Pierce have lip rings and Noah has blond and black hair. If you care to share how you envision the characters, feel free to drop a comment :D

                I nearly jumped back. He smiled at me. He was a beautiful boy, Andre. But that was only on the outside. On the inside, he was as ugly as could be. Andre had a deceptive personality. But eventually, his true self showed through.

                “Hello Max,” he said, the tone in his voice alerting me that his nice guy act was cranked to the max. “Hi Andre,” I said cautiously. Man, I was so not in the mood to see Andre right now. He was the reason Pierce broke up with me.

                “How have you been lately?” he asked politely. “I’ve been fine. How about you?” I asked, trying to stay polite as well. It was just the way I had been raised.

                “So you and Noah didn’t work out? I just saw him and Mickey kissing at the movies.” I couldn’t help the pain I felt explode in my eyes. “Oh! I’m sorry! Man, I’m so rude!” he cried.

                Why did he have this act up? I knew how he was. He knew I knew his true self. So why put on the nice guy act for me? I didn’t care for it. Although it did make me want to trust him. I wasn’t going to give in though. Trusting Andre would end terribly.

                I knew he was just trying to start problems though. He thought I didn’t know Noah was cheating on me. He was hoping to cause some drama with that.

                “Noah and I broke up,” I said quietly. “I’m sorry to hear that Max,” he said. The look in his eyes was so sincere. He was the way he was when I first met him. The kind one. The one who cared about everyone.

                The one who would tear a person apart if they did something he didn’t like.

                “It’s alright,” I lied. “Is there something I can help you with Andre?” I asked. He shook his head. “Not really. I was just in the neighborhood and thought I’d say hi.”

                I raised an eyebrow. “So you were just randomly in my neighborhood?” He shrugged. “My mom is visiting a friend who lives up here. We drove past the movie theater and saw Noah and Mickey kissing outside. Thought I’d stop by, figure out what was up with that, and say hi to you. I haven’t seen you in a while Max. I miss you.”

                I nearly laughed. I really wasn’t in the mood for Andre.

                “Aleixandre.”

                We both turned to face Pierce as he stormed up my driveway with Owen following. He glared at Andre. “Hello Pierce,” Andre said, trying to stay calm.

                “Leave Max alone Aleixandre,” Pierce said coldly. “Pierce, I told you. I don’t like it when you call me that,” he said with a pleasant smile. “What? You don’t like your name? But I used to call you Aleixandre when we dated,” Pierce said, a similar pleasant smile sliding onto his face.

                Andre was about to reply but instead he checked a message on his cell phone and sighed. “I have to go. It was nice to see you Max,” he said and waved before shoving by Pierce and leaving.

                I gave Pierce a confused look. “Aleixandre?” I asked curiously. Pierce nodded. “That’s his real name. I’m the one that nicknamed him Andre.”

                “What are you guys doing here?” I asked curiously. “We saw Andre at your door. Thought I’d scare the bitch away. Maybe shove a dick up his ass and send him running to his precious mommy screaming about how bad it fucking hurts,” Pierce grumbled.

                Man, what had him in a mood? “He got rejected,” Owen said, noticing my look. “Shut up Owen! I did not!” Pierce whined and punched Owen’s shoulder. Owen grumbled out a string of curse words as he rubbed his shoulder.

                Pierce liked to sleep around. He and I had talked about it a while ago. He had cheated on Andre, which was why Andre hated him so much. But at the same time, Andre loved him. Pierce no longer cared for Andre though.

                “Where’s Noah?” Pierce asked curiously. I paled a little. “Are you okay Max? Is something wrong with Noah?” Owen asked. “He’s at the movies. On a date. With a Mickey,” I said quietly. “WHAT?!” Owen and Pierce cried at the same time.

                “Yea. He broke up with me a little while ago,” I said, looking at the ground. Pierce didn’t hesitate to grab my arm and shove my sleeve up. He did the same thing to my other arm before releasing it. I didn’t even bother to look up. I had known that was coming.

                “I’m checking that every day,” he warned. Oh sure. Now he cared. “I don’t care Pierce. Check it every fucking hour if you have to!” I said, pain in my voice.

                He stared at me in surprise. “Maxi, what’s wrong?” he asked gently. Pierce was rarely gentle. “I’m not good enough for anyone Pierce. I’m a bad person,” I said in a small voice. Pierce and Noah hadn’t wanted me. There had to be something wrong with me. Had I treated them bad?

                “Maxi, it’s not you. Noah and I are fucking man whores. We can’t keep relationships. You know how Noah is. His hot dog likes to explore large hallways. He needs a big hole to bury his bone. He-” “Alright, alright! I get it; he’s a horny bastard!” I cried. But I couldn’t help but smile a little.

“Point is, your ass just isn’t the proper place for his Richard.” I raised an eyebrow. “His Richard?” Pierce grinned and nodded. “My mom used to call my dad’s dick Richard Jr. when I was little and she wanted to fuck him. Cause my dad’s name is Richard.”

“Whoaaa. TMI. It’s bad enough I have to constantly walk in on my mom and Will. I don’t need to hear about your rents getting freaky,” Owen said. Pierce chuckled. “Honey, let’s put Pierce to bed and I’ll entertain Richard Jr. for a little,” he said in a cheap imitation of his mom’s voice.

I grinned. “My dick’s name is Bruce.” They gave me curious looks. “Why?” Owen asked curiously. My grin got wider. “That’s the name of the great white shark in Finding Nemo.”

(A.N.- Really quick, my friend and I found a guy named Richard Payne. LOLOLOL Dick Payne ;D)

They laughed. “I just realized. Your dad is Dick Harts. Kinky,” Owen said, waggling his eyebrows at Pierce. “And I used to think your middle name was Cum,” Pierce shot.

Owen pouted. “My dad thought he was clever. Owen Sum Cash. Max is the only one who doesn’t have some pun on his name. Pierce Atonna Harts, Noah Goode Hottie, and Owen Sum Cash. Then there’s Maxwell Ricardo Quincy. The fuck is up with that?”

I smiled innocently and shrugged. “I’m the lucky one.” Pierce smiled at me. “Yea you are Maxi,” he said. And something hit me then.

I had been smiling and laughing with Pierce. I felt…happy. Happy with Pierce. And he seemed to be more relaxed around me than he had been lately. Maybe…maybe I had been in love with Pierce…
