Twenty Eight ☾

A/N:: wanna hear a joke?

Yes? Okay!!!! *gets excited*

"What happens when a frogs car gets taken away?"....... "it gets toad!"

^^don't laugh too hard!!  ARE YOU WHEEZING?? ... I'm so sorry. Honestly- I just- that was gross.

You can get on with the story now.. unless you're so disgusted with my 'humor' that you left the second you read that.. so happy reading, or happy finding another book because mine is awful!

I was sat at the island nibbling on a cookie while I read an old book I had left in the car for emergencies if I ever forgot one. I occasionally sipped my hot cocoa that Lisa made for me- well she didn't exactly take no for an answer.

I focused on the book that I remember more and more as I go, as my mind starts to drift to the twins. I miss them, and I haven't seen them in a while. Grayson's goofy smile and Ethan's warm hugs-

Suddenly I felt tight arms around my waist making me jump tipping over my stool with a loud crash against the floor. I closed my eyes ready for impact, but it never came. I slowly peeked one eye open and saw Ethan smiling down at me luring me in with his intense eyes.

My cheeks got hot and I scrunched my shoulders together looking down hiding my blush, but then peeked back up. "Hi." I said quietly holding back a smile. He chuckled and moved me from a bridal position to a koala position, and propped me up higher on his waist.

I put my hands on his shoulders as he held my waist to his chest and he smiled cheekily.  I let his warmth radiate off of him all over my body more then a heater ever could. "Hiya cutie." He said tiredly with a smile. I tilted my head to the side and furrowed my eyebrows noticing his state. His muscles were more tense and his voice was more groggy then normal.

"Are you tired?" I asked quietly. He closed his eyes for a second and nodded his head slowly. I turned my body and coughed away from him causing my eyes to water and a whine to leave my mouth.

He put his bottom lip out and furrowed his eyebrows giving me a sad look. It looked almost as if seeing me in pain hurt him just as much. "Aww princess." He said pulling me down so my head was on his shoulder and he held my waist securely with the one arm. How can one person be so strong?

"I'm sorry you don't feel good." He said kissing the side of my head and running his hand through my hair. He rubbed his thumb over my hoodie on my back which I barely felt- but it reminded me he was there which I appreciated.

He walked us over to the fancy looking couches next to the fire place and sat down letting me straddle his lap. He looked into my eyes leaning closer and then squinted his eyes looking down. He looked as if realization struck him then he clenched his jaw.

"Your brothers don't play lacrosse." He said looking at the hoodie I was still wearing due to the snow storm making the house cold. I didn't think it was that big of a deal, so I didn't hide it from him.

I nodded. "Yeah this is brooks'." I said taking a closer look at the hoodie as well. His eyes widened and he looked surprised.

"A girl on the guys lacrosse team?" He asked with a small smile. I giggled weakly and shook my head no. He gave me a confused look which made him look cute and pouty. I've noticed he doesn't like when he doesn't understand things, so he always does this look without knowing it.

"Not Brooke. Brooks like Brooks Larson the n-new guy." I said quietly feeling a tickle in my throat. I watched his small smile fall and his pretty hazel eyes turn a dark shade of brown. I thought that only happened in the movie and books, I've never seen it actually happen.
