Life with Older Brothers

Chapter 66

Landon's POV
Today is the day I have been dreading the most. Brody graduates today. I'm really happy for him, don't get me wrong, but I don't want my brother to leave me.

"Landon you need to start getting ready," My dad told me, walking into my room.

"Dad, I don't want to go," I said. Just watching him graduate is gonna make me sad, knowing he only has a few months till he leaves for college.

"You're coming, so get ready. You have to be there for Brody's big day," He told me.

"Fine," I sighed.

"We leave in a hour," He said, and left my room.

I got up and went to my closet. I didn't really know what to wear. My dad looked dressed up, so that probably means I have to too.

A minute later Noah came into my room. He saw me sitting on my closet floor.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

"I don't know what to wear," I shrugged.

"I'll help," He told me, walking into my closet. He looked through my clothes until he found me a outfit. It was khaki shorts with a button up shirt and sperrys.

"Get changed," Noah told me. I just continued to sit on the floor.

"What's wrong?" He asked me.

"I just don't want Brody to leave," I told him, trying my hardest not to cry.

Brody's POV
This is like the best day ever! I graduate! I've been waiting for this day for forever, and it's finally here.

I think my dad is stressed out. He decided to have my graduation party at the house, so he's been up for hours trying to get everything set up. I think he should have just hired some party planners, but he insisted that he do it by himself.

I was in my room getting ready when Noah walked in.

"Hey," He said, awkwardly.

"What's up?" I asked.

"I think you should go talk to Landon," He told me.

"What's wrong with Landon?" I asked confused.

"He's sad you're graduating," Noah said.

Landon has been sad all week. He hasn't really talked to anyone and just hangs out in his room. I don't think he realizes that I will still visit once I leave for college.

"Ok, I will," I told Noah.

I walked across the hall to Landon's room. I didn't bother knocking, just walked in. I didn't see him.

"Landon?"

"What?" I heard a quite voice say. It sounded like it was coming from his closet. I walked in and sure enough he was sitting on the floor.

"What are you doing?" I asked him.

"I don't know," He shrugged.

"What's wrong?" I asked. I already knew what was wrong, but I was trying to get him to talk about it.

He just shrugged again.

I walked over to him and sat down on the floor beside him. We sat there in silence for a minute until he started talking.

"I'm going to miss you," He told me, looking down at his hands. "I don't want you to leave me." He started crying, making me feel terrible.

"We have all summer together, and I promise I'll see you all the time," I told him, giving him a hug. He sniffled and nodded his head.
