- THE WAY I'M SCARED TO
WRITE THIS CHAPTER

maeve remedy stormed into her house, tears still streaming down her delicate face. hearing the door slam shut, finn wolfhard and jack grazer came rushing into the hallways where their little sister stood drenched in rain, sweat and tears.

without saying a word, maeve was pulled into a big hug by both her brother figures. "i'm sorry," she hiccupped, both boys sympathetically smiled while shushing the girl, "mae, it's not your fault." finn spoke softly, jack nodding on his side to agree. "go shower and we can have a movie night! i'll run out to the store for some specific confectionaries," jack spoke enthusiastically and sarcastically before bolting out the door and yelling, "i love you peanut! and finn, i guess"

maeve hugged wolfhard one more time and then climbed the stairs without wincing. surprisingly the long walk home didn't make her legs ache as they usually would, even with heels on. she peeled her dress off and placed it on a hanger to dry as much as it could and then stepped into the warm shower. letting the hot water engulf her freezing body.

"fuzzy pajama's, yes! oh my god and fuzzy socks too!" she squealed when she saw the boys had prepared her favorite pajama set and bought new fuzzy socks for her. the pajama bottoms were fluffy and beige with smiling avocado's printed over them and she grabbed a black tank top so she didn't overheat. 

"right. what movie is on tonight, boys?" she sniffled, her nose still blocked from the cold and the amount of crying she had done. "spider-man, homecoming?" jack suggested, picking up the remote and entering netflix. "uh duh? tom holland can literally cure my sadness right now." the girl giggled before a few tears rolled down her cheeks once again.

the boys decided against consoling her as that would make her cry more, just pressed play on the movie and ate snacks with maeve in the middle, technically having access to every snack they had.

"i missed this," she sighed to her brothers who looked at her confused. "i miss hanging out with you guys. i think i just got too caught up with my feelings," she added before looking at her hands. "no peanut. it's fine, it happens okay? we're just glad you're safe," finn smiled kissing her hair, "we love you no matter what, yeah?" jack added trying to lighten her mood while pretending to lick her. in a matter of seconds, they were in fits of giggles and laughter.

soon, their bonding time was interrupted but a knock at the door. "it's midnight, what the hell?" one of the boys said shaking his head. "maeve get it," jack whined, not wanting to get up. "mhm but what if it's louis? i'm not ready to face him just yet!" she whisper shouted, obviously she won the argument because jack stood up and trudged to the door.

"mae someone's here for you!" jack yelled from the door, "it's not him is it?" maeve cautiously called out. "nope!" jack called back. the remedy girl quietly stalked towards the door to be met with the smiling but upset faces of issie and millie partridge.

"iz, mils. hi," maeve breathed out, embracing the two girls into a hug.

"hey, bug." issie smiled, maeve laughed at the nickname.
