Thank You

Brydon POV

I ran back to my house. The sun had just set when I got to the door. I can't believe I did that. I got her back. She cares about me. She truly cares about me. I can call her mine well almost mine.

I opened the door and stepped into the house. " I'm home!" I called for who was listening.

" Yeah. We know." Decklen called back from the den down the hall. I ran in to see him. He was on the sofa watching a movie. My parents were doing the same only sitting on the other sofa. I jumped onto the sofa next to Decklen.

" You my brother are the greatest." I said and gave him a shove.

" I know but why am I so great today?" He asked.

" I went and saw Ember." I said.

" A five year old could have figured that one out. Look at him Tanya he looks like a nut smiling from ear to ear like that." My dad said.

" Gee thanks."

" So how is she Brydon? Tim isn't giving her a hard time now is he?" My mom asked.

" He doesn't like me and she's mad at him for it. She likes me better."

" Oh no we've lost him." Lue said.

" Did she say that she likes you better?" Tanya asked.

" No not in thoughts words but she did say that every time he kissed her she thought of me. She wants me not him!" I didn't realize I was jumping around the room until I was on the other side of it.

" Come on little brother I need to talk to you." Decklen said getting up. He got up.

" Okay. My room." I said.

I ran up to my room and put some soft rock on. I flopped onto my bed. I thought about Ember and it was as if she was there with me. I could imagine her there on my bed next to me .I could see her smiling face. Her hair would be covering part of her face. I would move it back and feel her warm skin under my fingertips. I would take her in my arms and hold her close, never wanting to let her to go.

Decklen stormed into my room. " What the hell is wrong with you?" He yelled and slammed the door shut behind him.

" Umm there's something wrong with me?"

" Yes there is! If I didn't know any better I would have thought you were on speed."

" I was with Ember."

" Yes I know!"

" You have no idea how great she feels." My mind drifted back to when I first saw her today.

" Whoa! You had sex with her!"

I sat straight up on my bed. " NO! How could you think that? No way did I have sex with her. She's still with Tim. We only made out… a lot."

" Oh yeah my brother is still a virgin. I forgot."

" Am not! I had plenty of action for it being 1927." I said.

" How do you remember things like that?"

" I don't know. I just can." I said leaning back and turning on my side.

" So…." Decklen said breaking the nice silence.

" So what?" I asked

" Are you going to tell me what happened?"

" She says thank you."

" Thank you? To me?"

" Yes to you. She wanted me to send her thanks for getting me out of this room to go see her. I want to thank you also."

" Well your welcome. I couldn't have just let you stay here and mope around now could I? So tell me what happened."

I grabbed my pillow and held it close to me pretending it was her. I told him everything. I told him about her jumping into my arms when she first saw me. I told him about how I felt the whole time. I went into detail about everything.

" Wow. She's something." Decklen said.

" Yes she is and I can't wait till I can call her just mine. I don't want to have to share her with anyone else but for now it will be okay. I'll get her. I might just have to work a little harder."

" It wouldn't be fair if you didn't have to work a little bit. I don't understand how you're okay with sharing her thought."

" I love her. That's why I'm okay with it. I also know that I will have her just to myself."

" Your in deep little brother."

" Yes I know and I don't plan on getting out any time soon." I said.
