Only Her
The one thing that Lewie loved about coming to his cousins house, was a queen sized bed that he got to share with his twin brother. It was so soft and he could lose himself snuggling into the blankets and pillows. Something that he was able to enjoy even more this morning since Beast had gone out with their older brother, younger sister and father. Early enough that Lewie was waking up alone.
A life that the young boy could easily get used to.
He almost moaned from the comfort as he wiggled around in the sheets, glad that he had been successful in convincing Beast that they should just sleep in their boxer briefs instead of full pyjamas. They knew that their mom and aunt wouldn't be checking on them in the morning. They never did as their mother used the time for a sleep in and their Aunt respected their privacy as 'growing' little men.
It was the thing that he loved most about his Aunt Julie.
That and she came from their mom's side so she didn't get the craziness that came from their father's. Which, while he loved his Latino heritage, was a little too much in his mind at times. Especially since they only did it around dad's family and did nothing like it while at home.
Sitting up enough that he could flop back down onto the softness of the mattress with his arms and legs spread, Lewie grinned happily. "A kid could get used to this…"
The trip was apart of the twins fourteenth birthday celebrations, with the family deciding on taking the boys to one of their favourite theme parks before a live-taping of a wrestling event with their favourite wrestler The Businessman in the main event.
Just thinking about what was to come on the trip had Lewie's stomach buzzing with excitement. If Beast had of been there with him, sinking into the comfort of the bed, they would have been squealing out in anticipation over being at a live-taping. Alone, however, the fourteen year old resigned himself to a sigh of relief.
The rest of the family had gone out to a little place that Beast wanted to try, a restaurant tucked into the corner of an otherwise tall setting that served oversized plates of freshly cooked pork.
They would literally serve you the entire pig for you to devour for breakfast.
It was mouth-watering for the garbage disposal-like twins. Unfortunately for the one currently tucked up in the cloud-like sheets, since he was allergic to pork so decided to stay home.
It would have been boring if not for the best part of the stay.
"Lewie?" Her voice was soft and lulling, like sweet music for Lewie's ears. "Are you awake, lazy bones? Or do I need to come in to poke and tickle you again?"
Playfully the younger boy ball'd himself up burrito-style into the sheets, hiding in the sily whiteness from his cousin. A grin that was impossible to remove came across his face as a little giggle escaped. The girl's steps were light on the carpet, undetectable if Lewie's ears had not been pricked to listen for her. He could feel the weight as she lay on the bundle of sheet and his own body, pressing him down into the dreamy softness. Lewie groaned slightly, almost twisting into a moan from the warmth and soft bed's embrace.
"Oh… I wonder where he ran off to now…"
From under the sheets, the boy giggled: "Ni-Nicooole,"
"I guess Lewie's not here. Maybe I should just," Nicole sighed softly, "Lay here and wait for him to come back to spend time with his poor, poor cousin who loves him ooooh so much…"
Lewie blushed a little from Nicole's comments, with the sixteen year old girl, the only member of the family that was able to act like this. His parents normally considered him and Beast to be wild children who acted like they were raised with wolves, except for when Nicole was around.
Lewie had never been able to be like that with his cousin.
He wasn't sure why but when she was around, he was on his best behaviour. Much to the confusion of everyone in his family. Who would question him about it and tease that they needed to take Nicole home if she was able to make him behave this much.
Continuing to giggle despite the blush and struggling not to wiggle free, Lewie wondered. "Oh, does she?"
"Mm… his poor poor lonely cousin… forced to simply lie here and await for her little Lewie to come and save her from such a sad and boring morning." Nicole sighed, pouting slightly.
Something that Lewie despite being hidden, was well aware that she would be doing. He hated her doing that and both of them knew that it was a dirty trick for her to do to him.
"And what would her poor little cousin get if he comes to save you?" Lewie asked in a soft voice, between giggles when he felt Nicole poke him through the sheets.
"Well… if he was here, I would be giving him such a massive hug and cuddle…" Nicole replied, resting her now folded arms onto the 'lump' in the sheets which earnt her giggle and slight protest. "Damn, I might have to tell mom we need new sheets… they are coming to life and protesting!"
Struggling not to keep giggling from her joke attempt, Lewie decided to press his luck a little and see what he could get from his sweet cousin. "Would she make her saviour pancakes?"
"Mmm… chocolate chip ones with whipped cream and extra fudge sauce… just how my little saviour likes it."
"Sprinkles?" Lewie questioned, hopeful.
Nicole smiled, knowing how much her cousin loved them. "Rainbow sprinkles. We can't have our pancakes without them."
"Yay!"
"Sooooo… is my sweet wonderful cousin going to come and save me from my poor poor existent without him?" Nicole questioned, pouting once more.
The younger boy wriggled around and managed to get his little arms free, then promptly shot through the little opening that was granting him air. Along with a lovely view of a blank wall.
"I'm down here! You're on me, dear cousin!" Lewie spoke in what he could only describe as a 'knight voice'.
Nicole shifted, propping herself on her elbows and allowing Lewie to dig himself out of the sheet slightly. It was tough, but he rolled around to be face to face with Nicole.
Strands of her long, dark hair fell to tickle Lewie's nose and prompt him to giggle slightly. She laughed back, parting her soft pink lips and showing off the beautiful little dimples that the youth loved making her show. He would play and make jokes just to see the older girl smile and laugh, creating the indents in her light tan cheeks that only served to make Nicole all the more beautiful. In Lewie's opinion, though, the sparkling brown orbs staring deeply into his own were the most beautiful part of the girl laying atop of him. A rich chocolate pool of innocence and brightness that he loved to get lost in while she was exploring his own.
"Oh he is too," She smiled, and Lewie couldn't help but moan lightly at her dimples. "Hello my little saviour, just how did you get down there?"
Groaning slightly as she weighed down, Lewie replied. "You laid on me!"
"Did I now…? No, I don't think I did. Wouldn't a fine lady like myself remember laying on someone as cute as you?" Nicole placed a small kiss on the tip of her young cousin's nose.
Lewie blushed. Another dirty trick that she could always win him over with. To the youth there weren't any words worthy of describing Nicole. Yet she always found the right ways to make him blush.
When his mouth opened to respond, Nicole softly poked his side and rolled off to the side. Allowing the boy to untangle himself from the silk sheets and leave himself on accidental display.
"Yay! Freedom!" Lewie grinned, before realising his current display.
"From the bed or from your clothes, little boy?" Nicole giggled softly.
Yelping and blushing bright red, Lewie dived for the covers. Trying to hide his nearly naked body from his sweet older cousin.
As the boy struggled to hide, the teenage girl couldn't help but pull him back to wrap her arms around his little body. At first Lewie was panicking slightly. The way that they were together, his head was pressed up against her chest. Soft like pillows but embarrassing enough to make him blush. Being one article away from naked wasn't helping him, either. He writhed and struggled, but was no match for Nicole as she pressed him down onto her body. Hugged tightly in an embrace that at its very core was an innocent loving bond between cousins.
"Ni-Nicole…" Lewie protested, not even attempting or wanting to squirm or get out of her embrace.
Nicole pulled him closer and rested her head on his slightly spiky brown hair. "Yes, my little saviour?"
"... I want pancakes…"
"Then we should go and make them while everyone is out." Nicole grinned.
Lewie grinned right back at her. When everyone else was out, the two of them make a tower tall enough to wobble. As the girl climbed off the bed, he remained and covered up slightly. "Ca-can I get dressed first?"
"Who said you could put more clothes on, my little saviour… It's pajama-time!" Nicole teased.
"B-But i'm just in my…" Lewie blushed, looking down at his small Ethika branded boxer briefs.
Nicole smirked teasingly. "Not my fault you wore so little."
Looking at the girl now, Lewie saw how little she was in, too. A lacy nightgown, fully white and barely reaching her knees. Something that if Ethan saw any other girl wearing would have put a tent in the teenager's pants. With the young fourteen year old somewhat noticing that it didn't look like she was wearing something under the nightgown above the waist. While it wasn't overly noticeable, the boy noticed it as he stared for long enough at his older cousin. He tried hard to ignore this, focusing instead on how wild her dark mop of hair was this early. That brought a giggle to his lips.
"What are you giggling about, mister?" Nicole questioned, one hand on her hip as the other poked Lewie's chest.
"N-nothing bushy tail…"
Poking her tongue out, Nicole responded: "Like you can talk, kiddo."
Lewie protested loudly as Nicole's hand reached out and ruffled his already messy bed hair. "HEY! Don't ruin natural perfection!"
"I'm not, that's why I haven't touched by hair." Nicole teased, poking her tongue out before heading for the door.
While he would forever argue that he didn't look, Lewie found his eyes drifting downwards as she walked away from him for a quick look. Looking back up at her retreating form, Lewie pounced off the bed himself and almost ran for the door. As her hand reached for the handle, another quickly shot out to grip the knob before Nicole even had the chance. Standing stiff like a little butler, Lewie opened the door with a slight bow. His free hand extended into the hallway and lead the way for his stunning cousin to walk into.
"M'lady…"
"Lewie… if you ever do that again I'm buying you a fedora like one of those creepy 'nice guys'." Nicole shivered, the girl remembering some of the creepy anime loving boys at her school.
"Bu-but I was being a little butler… You're supposed to find it cute! Imagine this is a suit!" Lewie pouted slightly and gestured down to his almost naked form, which did nothing to help his case.
Taking in the view of the white and grey checker board cotton boxer briefs with a red pac-man like figure on them, made Nicole unable to stop herself from giggling. "Sorry Lewie… while very very cute, those pattern undies don't really scream suit and tie."
Defeated, Lewie slouched into the hallway then made for the kitchen. His back was arched over, slumped and hanging low to touch the floor. His brightness and energy fleeted, leaving a seemingly sad little boy.
Pouting heavily, Nicole couldn't help but feel bad. "I'm sorry my little saviour, you make a VERY adorable butler…"
She tried to help her case by pulling him back towards her and planting an intentional somewhat sloppy wet kiss on his cheek.
What the teenager didn't notice was the slightly evil grin plastered on Lewie's bespectacled face.
"I feel a little better now. Maaaybe another one?" He asked with an air of malicious innocence.
Smirking and poking the younger boy again, Nicole responded: "Maybe if you help me cook the pancakes, my wannabe Casanova."
With that, the youth almost bolted into the kitchen with a cry of excitement. Another kiss, and pancakes. In his childish mind, there wasn't really anything better than that combination, especially with Nicole. Whom shook her head in amusement as she watched his undies clad little behind running towards the kitchen. Shaking her head, she followed her little cousin, to make sure he didn't destroy the kitchen.
There was faith. But it was slight.
Fear however made her remember the smoothie incident where Beast and Lewie had caused it to spray ALL over the kitchen. But that was what happened when you put the twins together with something their sister had invented from a pile of old parts lying around in a shed. That blender was more of a deathtrap than a way to make a drink. The metal bolt embedded in the wall next to Beast's head was enough to put it out of commission.
She was just glad that her mother put all of Harley's inventions away once the girl had left and only pulled them out when they knew the Diaz family were coming to visit. They weren't worth the hassle and possible death involved.
"You're not destroying the place, are you?" Nicole asked from around the corner as she heard the rustling in the pantry.
"Nicky! Would I do that?" Lewie pouted.
The girl's eyes widened for a moment. She stopped in her tracks and snorted. "Lewie Alehandro Diaz, I know what you're like at home…"
"Beast corrupts me?" Lewie attempted, despite knowing that neither of them fully believed that.
"Now, now Lewie! Be nice to your brother. You're both just as bad, little Mr. Plans-all-the-pranks." Nicole could almost hear the blushing on her little cousin's face. She could tell that he was muttering something under his breath, likely cursing his mother for telling about his bratty side.
"Well it's not quite all the pranks…" Lewie protested softly.
"Uh huh, and Beast doesn't do everything that his twin wants to do." Nicole smiled. While she had a bond with Lewie, her bond with Beast was just as strong. She completely adored the twins. Innocent brats or not.
Lewie was glad that his cousin couldn't see him. His blush was matching the colour of the tomato sauce bottle on the shelf in front of him.
"Now what are you doing in there?" Nicole finally asked, poking his bare back.
"Just getting the ingredients…" Lewie blushed, as the boy jumped and almost spilled the sprinkles all over his shirtless chest.
Nicole giggled before snatching the sprinkles away from him. There was no way in hell that Lewie Diaz was being left alone with sprinkles like that. There would be an empty tub before he could even step foot outside the pantry. The family had learned about that mistake when he was a toddler. How on earth a three-year-old could eat a jar of sprinkles that was half his size, no one ever found out. Georgie just found a very rainbow, and very happy, baby sitting in there with an empty jar. That was also the day that Nicky first began to try and blame his actions on other people. This time blaming Ethan for giving them to him.
"Hey!" Lewie protested, pouting and giving his cousin his best puppy dog eyes.
"NO." Nicole said bluntly. There was already a single blue sprinkle on her tongue, which she made sure Lewie saw. "I know what you are like with these. No touchy! Don't need a repeat of 'Rainbow Lewie'."
Lewie found himself blushing heavily, from the blue sprinkle's location.
"B-Bu-But… fineeee." He growled slightly.
Giggling Nicole wrapped an arm around his shoulders and led him over to the kitchen island. "Come on, my little butler."
"Not little…" Lewie grumbled, with a slight pout.
The girl rolled her eyes but ignored the protest. From the pantry door, she watched the bespectacled youth move up to the counter then duck into the cupboards in search of a pan brought a smile to her lips. He had come a long way from the somewhat bratty little boy that would be jumping up and down with his twin demanding that someone made pancakes. The batter was already on the counter waiting for her, so Nicole eased the door closed and peaked over to see his boxer-clad butt wiggling around.
"What's up, bubble butt?" She giggled.
"N-NICOLE!" Lewie yelped, covering his butt with his hands. A useless attempt that was just all too cute.
The redness in his cheeks only made the situation cuter.
"Oh don't be so embarrassed, little butler. I actually prefer my boys to have cute little bubble butts…" Nicole teased.
Lewie couldn't find the words to respond. Or the will to speak.
Soon he wriggled out of the cupboard with a pan and metal bowl for mixing. Wordless as he placed them down before setting off to get the flour, which both teens had forgotten. If it had been anyone else with him, Lewie would have a few powdered pranks in mind.
Never would he do that to Nicole.
"OKAY!" He announced, popping back into the room, "Pancake time! Woohoo!"
Nicole grinned. "Do you need help or you got this, my little butler?"
After a moment the boy responded in a high, french accent. "Ah, why I can do it myself, madame,"
Deciding to tease a little, Nicole placed a hand on her forehead to pretend she was going to faint.
"Oh my… a cute little french boy is cooking for me… they are sooo romantic…"
"Oh no, she's going to faint!" Lewie cracked a grin, "Quick, I need twenty CCs of croissant!"
"Will they be as perfectly made as the buns in front of me." Nicole teased, looking directly at the younger boy's boxer briefs covered behind.
Lewie somehow turned a brighter shade of red. "N-NICOLE!"
