it."
                  Maybe he was right about me looking a bit rough, but in my own defense, who doesn't when they're hung over?
                  "Ooh!" Landon mocked, “What a hurtful thing for you to say."
                  Gavin huffed, turning to Wyatt, who sat beside him eating, "You agree with me don't you?"
                  Wyatt glanced up at him, then at me, his eyes lingering for a moment. He stayed quiet, chewing on his food as he thought. "I don't really know her," Wyatt shrugged, "but she doesn't seem too bad."
                  Gavin's face turned red and his hands gripped the edge of the table, "Are you fucking kidding me? You too? You're my twin, you're supposed to side with me. Why are you all so blind? I keep repeating myself over and over and you all never listen!"
                  My head throbbed and I rubbed my temple, wishing he would lower his voice a bit.
                  "Why don't you try getting to know her Gavin?" Polly smiled, "I think you two will get along just fine once ya see for yourself the kind of person she is."
                  "I don't need to get to know her! I already know all I need to know and nothing she says or does will change my mind."
                  Well, that was nice to know. Glad I wasn't trying to impress him. "Good to know, I feel the same way about you."
                  "Ah trust me, you don't hate me as much as I hate you," Gavin growled.
                  "I doubt that," I muttered, taking a bite of bacon.
    He only cursed at me, yelled and told me off every single time we were anywhere near each other. I may have burned down his barn, but he had burned down any hope of us getting along.
                  It was probably time to accept the fact that he would never change and move on.

                  "We really appreciate you letting us borrow the cement truck, Clay," Chili said shaking an older man's hand. The cement truck sat running in the driveway, churning the cement inside around and around.
                  "Well now that ain't no problem, you were in a predicament and I had to help. My cousin owns a cement company so here's a truck. I'll come back with my son to pick it up this evening when you're done," Clay mentioned as he patted the side of the truck.
                  "Well ya know you and your family are welcome over to dinner anytime, you know how much Polly likes company."
                  "This is going to make things go a lot faster," Landon spoke from beside me, bringing my attention back the guys around me. It appeared that almost everyone was going to be working on the barn today. It meant there would be more distraction, making it more likely for me to have an embarrassing moment of stupidity in front of them.
                  Gavin and Polly had left directly after breakfast to go to town and I had no idea how long they would be gone, but I hoped it would be for awhile. I didn't know if, when they got back, Gavin would be working on the truck or helping with the barn, but I hoped for the truck. I really didn't want him looking over my shoulder every second.
                  Jayden had his arm slung over my shoulder and I couldn't help but think maybe he was trying to stake a claim on me. Part of me was happy that a guy was paying attention to me, especially an attractive guy like Jayden. But then there was the another part of me, the part of me that was drawn to the other guys, was screaming to shove him away. A part of me needed to get to know each and every one of them.
                  Of course, there was also a part of me that told me to run far away from all of them. It was my self-preservation kicking it, wanting to save myself from any future hurt I may experience.
