Chapter 43

We played poker all night and I got rich, because I won a few times and we were playing it for real. We made a list so we could see who owed me what

Evangeline gets money from:

·        Adam: €3,79

·        Brenda: €4,44

·        Deamon: €4,56

·        Jackson: €2,83

·        Jacob: €2,40

·        Jaden: €2,79

·        Jason: €3,05

·        Marcus:  €2,00

·        Michael: €4,23

·        Samuel: €2,67

So the total is €32,76

‘yeah buddy, I WON!’ I was jumping around the room just like I did the last few times that I won

‘you know that you are weird don’t you?’ Michael asked as a joke

‘so I’ve been told’ I said and I sat down with a smile on my face.

‘we are going to stop now.’ Deamon said

‘ahw, why? are you scared that you’ll lose more money?’ I said tauntingly

‘no’ he said with a flat face ‘it’s really over bedtime’ I looked at the clock and gasped

‘oh my god! It’s four in the morning!’

‘yeah, so?’ Michael said

‘so? SO? My dad would have killed me when I wasn’t sleeping at this time. Why aren’t you doing anything?’ I was standing and turned to Deamon when I said this

‘because  I would be a hypocrite if I said that they’d have to sleep if I don’t’

‘but. But. Parents always tell their children to sleep or something’

‘but half of them aren’t mine, and they are almost grownups, I can’t tell them what to do anymore’

‘but Jackson, Jaden and Jason aren’t almost grownups’

‘no they aren’t but if their brothers can stay up this late, they can. At least that’s what they say’ he pointed with his shoulder towards Jason that was asleep on his brothers shoulder, Jackson who was also sleeping, but he was sleeping against the TV stand.

‘shouldn’t we put them in bed?’ I asked Deamon and he nodded while standing up, 'Jacob?’

‘yeah I know’ Jacob answered.

He was about to pick up Jason, but then he stopped and looked at Marcus, he nodded for an unknown reason but then Marcus walked towards Jacob and Jason and they both picked up Jason.

Deamon and Jaden had been looking at Jacob and Marcus and when they picked Jason up they picked up Jackson. We all had gotten ready already, so we didn’t have to do anything when the games were over, except for Brenda and Deamon. 

‘I’m so sorry, I had no idea that this would take so long’ I apologized to Brenda while we were walking towards the guys’ room

‘it doesn’t matter, I had a great time here.’ I nodded

‘where are you going to sleep?’

‘if it is alright with you I could sleep in your room, or I could sleep on the couch or I could sleep in Deamon his room’
