House arrangements

Romaro's pov (the next day) 5pm
"They should stay here." Dee said. "Huh?" I asked, I don't know what this girl is taking about. "Well think about it, Shavarn was shot in his house. Who's to say that the people who shot him aren't the same people after us? What if they know where we all live? Safety is in numbers, we're all a lot more safe if we stick together. I don't want them to get hurt, not if I can to something about it." She told me. I don't want to admit it but she's telling the truth. If they get hurt it's blood on my hands. "Okay, call them, let them know what you said." I said. She smiled and walked out the room, knowing Dee she probably told them before she asked me. Nothing has happened between us,not since the kiss. I'm fine with it though, que sera, sera. What will be will be.

Twenty minutes later.

Everyone was at the house, bags of clothes and belongings were thrown everywhere. The house was chaotic and full. "Okay. Guys-" Nobody was listening to me so Dee cut me off. "Yo! Everyone shut your mouths!" Everyone did as she told, she then smiled at me innocently. "As I was saying, there's nine of us, this is a nine bedroom house. Everyone can get their own room. Go put your stuff away, you will know which room is Dee's and which one is mine but this is your new home now,keep it clean and keep it safe. There's a pool, a safe room and a target room, there's also a room for games-" I started, Dee cut me off. "They're all gone." She laughed. "Girl you too damn rude!" I told her. She opened her mouth to speak when my phone started ringing. "Hold that thought." I said. I went in to the next room to talk on the phone.

"What do you want?" I asked. "I wanted to talk to my big brother!" She said. "I'm only three minutes older than you, what's the real reason you called?" I rolled my eyes. "Okay, Mum kicked me out, she found a gun under my pillow." She said. "Why did you have a gun under you're pillow?" I semi yelled. " 'Cause a gang who dress in all black with a white banana is after me, I think you're the reason why." She sounded like she was about to cry. "I'm sorry sis, I'll send you my adress. You can stay with us." I sighed. "Us?" She questioned. "The gang is after my crew and I as well. I'll talk more when you get here. Bye." I hung up the phone.

Dee's pov 7pm
I wanted to know who he was on the phone to. It better not be a female. I don't know why I cared so much. "Who was it?" I asked when he entered the room. "My twin sister. The same gang that's after us is after her and its all my fault." He put his head in his hands as he sat on the floor, I ran over to him and hugged him. "It's alright, she will be okay, we will protect her." I said, he didn't say anything. "Say something." I urged him. "Your boobs are in my face." He said. I flicked his head and we both started laughing. He leaned in to kiss me,tilting my head towards his, our lips were only a centimetre apart when the doorbell rang. "I'll get it." I said,jumping back. I opened the door to see a tall, light skin girl with chocolate brown eyes and long brown hair. "Hey..umm is my brother here?" She asked, looking nervous. "Yeah, he's right through here, there's no need to be nervous." I told her, leading her to where Romaro was. When he saw her he ran up and hugged her. "I missed you so much!" She shouted, he didn't say anything, he just kept her in his arms,not letting her go. I started to walk up the stairs when Romaro called my name. "Dee,this is my sister, Brooke. Brooke this is my....-" I cut him off. "I'm his friend, my name's Dejarnè but you can call me Dee." I smiled. "You're pretty." She said. "So are you, I like you're style." I replied. Just then everybody ran downstairs.

"Brooke this is the squad, Mario,Santana,Tyrese,Terri, Montana,Brandon,Kevin. You've already met Dee." Romaro said. Everyone came up and hugged her, doing individual hello's. Kevin couldn't take his eyes off of her and she kept looking at him. Romaro saw." Stop watching my little sister." He said sternly. "Boy hush, you're only three minutes older!" She replied. "Ooooh!" Everyone yelled. "You got told!" Terri said. I started laughing, so did everybody else. "I'm ordering pizza, anybody hungry?" I asked. I don't know why I asked, I know that they are always hungry.

Brooke's pov 9pm
"Tell us about yourself Brooke." Dee asked, picking up another slice of pizza. "Well my name's Brooklyn Ranai Lopez, I'm 19 years old. I love basketball and food. I grew up with my parents and lived with them up until recently. I'm single and I'm hungry." I said picking up another slice of pizza. Dee started laughing. "Kevin likes you, he thinks you're pretty and he wants your p-" Kevin put his hand over Dee's mouth. "She's talking rubbish. Ignore her." Kevin blushed. I smiled, Kevin's kinda cute. "Well I'm going to bed... Night." He ran upstairs. "I'm going up too,bye." Terri said. Soon there were only two people downstairs besides myself. "So Brooke,you can sleep in my room, I'll sleep on the couch." Romaro said. "No,you can stay in my room,there's enough room for the both of us." Dee told him. "I'm alright on the couch." He whispered. "Suit yourself, I'm going to get changed and then I'm going to find more food." Dee walked upstairs. "Why did you say no? I can tell you like her." I asked. "I don't know. I'm a nineteen year old kingpin, I can't get caught in my feelings." He mumbled. Dee came back downstairs in gym shorts and a tank top. "Where did you put the nutella?" She asked Romaro. "Bottom draw." He said. He watched her bend over, he bit his lip. "Dee?" I called. "Yeah?" She said. "Can Maro sleep in your bed, I know he doesn't want to tell you this but he doesn't like sleeping on the couch, it's uncomfortable." I said. "Whatever. I'm taking the nutella and the strawberries, night Brooke." She said as she ran upstairs again. "Your welcome." I smirked at Romaro. "Night sis, I'm going upstairs." He kissed my forehead. I laughed, he's head over heels for Dee, he needs to hurry up and tell her.

Dee's pov 9:30pm
I was eating chocolate covered strawberries when my room door opened, it was Romaro. He leaned over me and took a strawberry, I mean mugged him. "Night." I closed my eyes and rolled over to the edge of the bed. "Why you so far away? I'm not gonna hurt you, come here." He grabbed my waist and he pulled me towards him. I put my head on his chest,he put his arms around my waist. At this moment,everything was perfect. He kissed my head. "Night baby." He whispered,I don't think I was supposed to hear that. Damn! This boy got me all up in my feelings! In his arms is where I wanted to stay, safe,secure and loved.
