Promise Me (Marcus Dobre Fanfiction)

Chapter 2

"So who do you like?" Alissa asked me.

We had just sat down in the nearest Starbucks and had just gotten our drinks.

"What?" I asked, confused as to what she was talking about.

"Which boy do you like in the house?" She asked, more thoroughly.

"I like them all, they all seem really nice." I told her, playing dumb.

She just rolled her eyes.

"Not like that, you know what I mean."

I thought about it for a little bit. Marcus did seem really sweet and his smile was just so amazing and-

"Who?" Alissa interrupted my thoughts.

"No one. I just met them all today." I said.

She shook her head.

"Nuh-uh. You like one of them. Who?" She pressured.

I sighed, knowing I wouldn't win in this argument and I didn't want to continue this conversation but if I change the subject, she'll just come right back to it.

"Maybe one of the twins." I looked down, not wanting to see her expression, and to just hush her up already.

"Really!"

She sounded so happy and so I looked up at her, confused.

"Yeah."

"Which one? Or can you not tell them apart yet. It's easy if you need help tell them apart, Lucas has-"

I cut her off by letting out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

"Marcus..." I said, sounding a little unsure.

She squealed.

"But please don't tell anyone, especially Jake. He would murder someone, most likely Marcus." I calmed her down.

She nodded.

"My lips are sealed." She told me.

I smiled at my good friend.

"How about you? Anyone that you are liking?" I asked the same question to her.

She immediately blushed, meaning that she does.

"Ooohhh, Who?"

"Your brother." She said quietly but I still heard her.

I choked on my drink a little bit before fully swallowing and looking at her shocked.

"What?" I asked, to make sure I heard her correctly.

"I like your brother." She said looking down.

I paused for a moment.

"Alright. I can see it." I smiled at her.

"You can see what?"

"#Jalissa! After all these years, it's about time!" I joked with her.

She just blushed even more.

"But it's complicated."

"How is it complicated? He's liked you for so long." I whispered the last part to myself.

"I don't think he likes me." She told me.

"Oh, trust me honey, he likes you. He likes you big time."

"Really?"

I nodded my head in confirmation. We talked for a while longer until Jake called to say to come home. We made our way back to the Team 10 house and continued our little conversation. Once we walked into the house, someone was singing and playing the piano.
