Brother's Best Friend

5

The next morning I woke up kind of early, (for me anyways). I checked the clock next to me to see it was 9:07 on boxing day. I grabbed my phone that was plugged in on my bedside table, unplgged it and checked my socials. Nothing too important on Instagram or twitter so I checked my messages. First was a message from zara so I quickly replied.

Then I furrowed my brows as I saw a message from Lando. But then I remembered messaging him thanking him for my gift. I quickly pressed on the message to see his reply. For some reason I had butterflies in my stomach yet I chose to ignore them and reply to his message

After replying I went to get ready. I didn't have to wash my hair as i washed it the day before so only a basic shower this morning. I brushed my teeth and did my makeup before going into my wardrobe to choose my outfit. I wasn't planning on doing anything today but I wanted to ask zara if she wanted to meet so I chose some blue jeans, my beige jumper and a puffer jacket as it was really cold outside especially in winter on England.

I got dressed and did my hair. I don't know why but I had woken up in a good mood, I don't know whether it was because of Christmas or what but whatever it was made me feel very happy. I ran over to my bed jumping onto it, sinking into the white sheets. I went onto Instagram for 20 minutes or so before I decided to go downstairs. For breakfast I had an acai bowl with fruit and granola so I walked with my bowl into the living room so I could eat it while watching netflix.

After about 15 minutes Max walked into the room head down looking on his phone. He hadn't noticed me sat there so I shouted "Boo" and laughed as I watched him jump in fear. He grabbed his chest over enthusiastically in an attempt to look as if he faked his fear but I knew I had scared him. As I burst out laughing he sat next to me. Clearly he had just woken up based of his dopey state and messed up hair. "Any plans for today?" I asked him.
To which he replied "not much but I'm meeting up with Lando and Ria for lunch".
"Can I come?" I asked knowing the answer.
"No" he answered only confirming my theory.
"OK thanks what time are we going" I replied knowing it was winding him up although I did actually want to go this time.
"Your not coming" he stated angrily. "Fine I'll ask Ria then" I said leaving him, taking my bowl into the kitchen before dashing up the stairs 2 steps at a time. I texted Ria as she is one of my friends through Max of course.

She soon replied so I was very pleased I was allowed to go and it was an added win that it angred Max so much. By now it was 10.31 so I skipped downstairs to ask Max what time we're going. "12.45" he said rolling his eyes knowing I was going too. It was still a few hours away so I went back to my room to watch more tv as a way of killing some time.

~2 hours later

I noticed the time and decided to get ready to leave. I quickly grabbed my new bag from Lando and threw in my matching monogram lv card holder and keys. Heading downstairs I pulled on my shoes and shouted for Max. 'Are you almost ready?' I questioned.
'Yes, I'm coming now' was all I got in reply. I quickly took a photo to post on my Instagram story later. A second later Max came downstairs car key in hand.

Opening the passenger of Max's black mini I quickly connected my phone so I have dibs on the music. I made sure to put on one directions album four and shuffle play. The first song that came on was fireproof by one direction. 'No' was all Max uttered as I stared to sing. Deciding not to annoy him more than I already had I turned it off and started playing wonderwall by oasis. This time Max sang along.

After a short drive we pulled into the car park of the cafe. After getting out of the car we headed to the table Ria was already sat at. I quickly gave Ria a hug before sitting down next to her. Max sat opposite her leaving a seat for Lando opposite me. A couple of minutes later Lando arrived sitting down opposite me while apologising for being late.

We all ordered drinks and food then chatted about how out Christmases had been before the food arrived.

After a couple of hours chatting and laughing we all started to say goodbye as Lando gave me a hug I quietly whispered 'thanks again for my gift'
Giving me a slight wink as he pulled away he replied 'no worries love you deserve it'. Butterflies erupted on my stomach as I lightly blushed.

Walking back to Max's car I pulled my jacket around me tighter as it was suddenly much colder than when we had arrived. 'Thanks for letting me come with you' was all I said to Max before tuning the music back up.
