A/N: I am getting very lazy with updating, I admit. I think I updated far much more with Because Now, I Am a Pureblood. I think I've lost my enthusiasm. So sorry if this story is complete crap, I didn't mean for it to be that bad. Oh, and it's so funny to see you guys disgusted by the kiss last chapter. : )

Brother, Sweep Me Off My Feet
Chapter 2: Thinking
Blaise woke up from the sun shining through his window, but he was anything but little mister sunshine.
He went downstairs to eat breakfast.
"Blaisey," his mother cooed. Blaise rolled his eyes. He hated it when his mum called him that. "The Malfoys are coming over today, remember? To meet Amaris."
"Oh. Right. Does she know that?" He asked.
"No, but I think you should tell her."
"Why do I have to do it? You're her mother."
"Yes, but you're her brother. And you two are comfortable with each other."
Blaise winced upon hearing this. They were anything but comfortable with each other. It was like being with your ex—which he was—and awkward silences were hung in the air. Everytime Blasie would think about, hear, or see Amaris, he would restrain himself from grabbing her waist and kissing her.
"Fine," Blaise grumbled.
From now on, things were going to be weird. He couldn't possibly get to be friend friends with Amaris. Not after everything that happened.
They just needed a clean start, right? No, not really. They needed to go to extreme measures. Did they? A memory charm may work, but he could very possibly mess up and clear her hold mind. Blaise slid through Charms class barely, but still had a passing grade. No, he couldn't charm Amaris. He could make a potion. Though, he didn't have the things for it. Draco did, but it wasn't as if he was going to ask for help. It's just how guys were.
Blaise was desparate for something. They were brother and sister! They would be seeing each other for life unless the other died. Death…NO!
Blaise shook his head. He was going crazy. This thinking was making his head hurt. Just a clean start, that was all he and Amaris needed.
After pacing around his house, Blaise came to Amaris's door. He knocked but no one answered. Maybe she was still asleep.
Blaise glanced at his watch. It was ten. A reasonable time to get up. Opening the door handle, Blaise thought if he should knock again, just in case. What if she was naked? Blaise started to feel aroused by the thought but quickly mentally slapped himself.
What are you thinking? She's your sister for Merlin's sake!
During all of his thinking, he had opened the door. No, Amaris was not naked, but sleeping quietly.
Blaise went over to her bed and watched her.
Amaris's eyes were closed, obviously, her mouth closed, which Blaise thought was very ladylike, and her hair was neatly to the side. She was sleeping on her back with her hands placed on her stomach with her hands folded.
She is such a beautiful sleeper…UGH! You're doing it again! But what if I think she's beautiful for a sister? Yeah, brothers can think their sisters are pretty. It doesn't mean they like them. It's only an opinionated fact. Yeah.
Suddenly, Amaris's eyes fluttered opened. She screamed at the sight of Blaise and rolled out of her bead. Amaris hit her head on a nightstand, groaned, and stood up.
"What are you doing in here?" She said, rubbing the corner of her head.
"I was going to tell you something," Blaise simply said. His throat was getting dry, seeing Amaris in her nightclothes. She was wearing a pink tank top which was low cut and showed her bra and cleavage. Her shorts were baby blue with pink polka dots on them and showed her tan, lean, long legs.
"Well, what is it? You nearly gave me a heart attack. I forgot I didn't live with the um, Grangers anymore."
"Well, the Malfoys are coming over today to see you."
"What?" Amaris looked shocked. "You chose to tell me now? I'm not even ready!" She dashed into her bathroom.
"Yeah, well I guess our parents forgot to tell you. So did I. But they aren't coming 'til noon!" Blaise half shouted after her.
Wait, now that Blaise and Amaris were over, Draco might move in on her. But that won't happen will it? Draco was always after the ladies, single or not. Even though the war cleared up old tensions, Draco was still the same with his one night stands. Blaise felt determined to keep Draco away from his sister. They were no longer a couple, but he still cared for her being his sister and all. Blaise was not going to let Amaris get hurt.
