"Hey sis!"
"Brother, you're so right on time."
"I always do. Only to someones."
"Oh, that means so much to me."
"Ha ha. Like anybody have told me that before."
"Nobody ever says that to you?"
"Not at all. Except for my sister."
"Not even Maria?"
He shook his head.
"John, I'm sorry."
Eva look down, feeling bad. John then stop his walk and put his hand on her shoulder. He turn her around to face him. He lifted her chin up and kissed her forehead.
"You're my sister and you don't have to apologized on anything."
"Even sisters make mistakes especially unofficial sister."
"Eva, let's just forget about it okay?"
"Fine."
Eva give him a small smile and get into the car. They are watching a horror movie as Eva loves horrors. John buy her a popcorn and nachos with drinks. They got the last row, to have a better view.
In the middle of the movie, John turn to look at Eva, who is grabbing hold his hand since the suspenses started. She's shivering, he thought.
"Ev?"
"Yeah John?"
"Are you cold?"
"No, I'm not."
She quickly pull her hand away from his hand.
"Don't lie to me."
"Positive, John."
"Let me hold your hand."
She try to hid it in her pocket but John managed to grab it gently.
"It's cold Ev. Here, have my jacket."
John take off his jacket and covered Eva with it.
"Thanks brother."
"You're welcome."
They then continue to watch the movie as Eva lay her head on John's shoulder. The movie ended soon enough and they walk to the car.
"You sure you're not hungry?"
"Na, I'm full already."
"You only have nachos."
"With a popcorn."
"You don't even eat a quarter of the popcorn Ev."
"Oh come on, who is the one hungry now? You or me?"
"Actually it's me."
He smiled cheekily and Eva rolled her eyes then laughed. Her brother is so cute, she thought.
"I'll go and accompany you all right?"
"No, you have to eat with me!"
"John, I'm not hungry."
"If the brother eats, the sister also have to eat."
"As if that's a rule."
"It is a rule."
"And now I'm breaking the rule. Yay. Now let's go."
Eva pull John to his car and he drive to a restaurant that Eva don't even know.
"John, where are we?"
"Somewhere."
"John!"
"Sis, I never knew that you're so so annoying. Do you know that?"
"Hmph!"
She sulk and run away into the dark. John sigh and followed her.
"Ev! Eva! Come on out. I'm sorry Ev. Please forgive me. Eva!"
He run deeper into the dark and hit someone. He fall down on that person and accidentally kiss that person on the lips. That lips are so soft, obviously that person is a girl. A beautiful one for sure. He quickly get up after that and help the girl up.
"I'm sorry."
He apologized but still he don't know who's that girl. There's no face but there's a shadow of her.
"It's fine."
He recognized that voice.
"Eva?"
"John?"
John pull the girl's hand under a light. It is Eva. He have just kissed his sister.
"John?"
"Ev, I'm sorry. I was falling and I fall onto you and it was all an accident."
"You don't have to explain it, I know that you fall on me."
"So, do you want to head home or have dinner?"
"You're hungry so let's go."
"I'm full now. I guess I better send you home now. It's nearly midnight."
Eva nodded and they head to the car, without any words spoken. Not soon after, John stop in front of her house but found out that she's already asleep. He don't want to wake her up so he search for her house key. He open the door first and carry her to her room and lay her body to the bed. He left a peck on her forehead and walk away.
John didn't notice that from the outside, Sarah and Steve were watching him. And it just give them an idea to share with the Cena's. They then head to their room and head to bed. John, was driving back home while thinking of the 'accidentally' kiss.
"She's only my sister, nothing more."
He keep reminding himself as he felt something different when her kissed her. He park his car in the garage and bump into his bed.
"Seems like just yesterday
You were a part of me
I used to stand so tall
I used to be so strong
Your arms around me tight
Everything, it felt so right
Unbreakable, like nothing could go wrong
Now i can't breath
No, i can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on"
Eva woke up, stretching and yawn. The minute when her legs are out of her blanket, her parents came in.
"Honey, good morning."
"Morning mum."
She hug her mum as she kissed her daughter's cheek. Her dad then stand beside Sarah.
"Morning dad."
"Morning darling."
"So you're going out now?"
"Yeah darling. Me and your mum will be home quite late so try to cook dinner yourself."
"Okay dad."
He messed up her daughter's hair and Eva laughed.
"And honey, John will be coming over at 10."
"He's coming over?"
"He don't tell you last night?"
"Nope. I think he might forget about it."
"I think so too. Okay, now go have your bath all right. We're going now. Bye honey."
Sarah kissed Eva's temple and walk out. Steve just hugged Eva and give her some money to buy things or order pizza. Eva do her bed as usual and have her shower. She took about thirty minutes and got into her pink shorts and her basic cool shirt. Eva got down and eat her cereal. The door rang and she went to get it.
"You're early! Go home!"
She slam the door and open it again.
"What was that all about?"
John questioned her, still shocked.
"I was joking, come on in. Ha ha, a joke? Get it?"
"Nope."
He shook his head and come inside and Eva closed the door.
"What are you doing?"
"Having my breakfast."
"Oh."
He followed her to the kitchen and sit beside her.
"So, what are you doing today?"
"Nothing at all. What about you brother?"
"Babysitting my sister, of course."
"They make you do it?"
"Na, I wanted to."
Eva hit his hand and he laughed.
"John, surely you got something else to do. Rather then babysitting a girl?"
"Na, I don't have any plans either."
"What if we invite Mel and Jack here?"
"For what?"
"The project duh."
Eva get off the stool and grab her home phone in the living room. She jump to her sofa and punch in her dad's number.
"Yes darling?"
"Daddy, can I invite two friends here? For a project work."
"Who is it?"
"Jack and Melina."
"Okay, but is John there?"
"Yeah, he's here. You want to talk to him?"
"Pass him the phone please darling."
"Okay."
She turn to John and hand him over the cordless phone and he place it against his ear. He just answer yes and no then hang up the phone.
"Do you know Jack's number?"
"Yeah. Who don't?"
"Let's see. A girl name Eva, I guess."
"Ha ha. Let me call him."
"Fine."
John call Jack and he agreed to come as he have nothing to do either.
"Your turn to call Mel."
"What even."
"What is that suppose to mean?"
"Do you ever know the meaning of odd and even?"
"Yeah, of course."
"Then, go figured it out yourself."
She smiled at him and she call Melina.
"Hey Mel."
"Eva, what a surprise."
"Ha ha. I know and yeah, can you come over to my house? We want to work on the project."
"Fine, I have no plans anyway today."
"Okay. See you soon."
"Bye."
Eva hung up and return the phone back. She then get seated next to John and lay her head on his shoulder.
"You want to know something brother?"
"What is it sis?"
"I don't even remember how I get to bed yesterday night. Did I blacked out yesterday or I get to bed on my own?"
"I carried you to bed."
"Huh? Are you even near serious?"
"Yeah Ev. You were sleeping so I don't want to wake you up and I take you to bed."
"Mum and dad have gone to bed already right?"
"I think so."
"Oh god!"
"Why are you so scared?"
"Daddy don't let any boys carry me to bed. Not even Zack."
She quickly close her mouth after mentioning Zack's name. John twisted his head to face her.
