Dedicated to ____(insert your name here)______ and Jake, who will never read this story :P. :)
"Okay, erm..." i muttered as i opened the door and turned on the light. "Put your stuff in your room... it's right up the stairs on the left, the room next to mine. Either of you hungry? i think i could whip up something..." and just as i trailed off, i managed to do the female adult version of Kwoli's magnificent yawn. Except this time i covered my mouth.
"Jesus..." i heard a low voice utter before looking at Brady as i closed my mouth. His was open and staring, his eyes had turned to that unusual dark blue colour which was a cross between prussian blue and black. that reminded me i had to probably finish off my art painting sometime. it was due in three years ago. It's a wonder i'm a 4.0 student...
"You know it's not nice to stare, tell people they're weird or even blaspheme when they yawn. no matter how close you are to their brother.
"You know what else is rude? my beautiful counterpart,... telling someone they must be gay for being friends with your brother." i looked down slightly, biting my lip. I was truly sorry about that, i had just thought that maybe they liked eachother and... did he just say i was beautiful?
"Sorry and thanks. No one's told me that since my dad died." i heard a scoff behind me and turned to Collin.
"Sorry to burst the little love bubble here, but i just rented the Time Travelers Wife since i feel like we need to do something nice for you, and i ordered three extra large, extra cheesy pizzas, exact to our usual standards and i told you i thought you were beautiful and any man who said otherwise was an idiot last night before going to bed. Oh, you might not have heard it, you were kind of asleep at the time but still, it counts." i grinned and threw my arms around Collin as he finished. He pulled me close and i thanked him with a kiss on the cheek.
"Yes, it does still count. It counts a lot. and thank you for the pizza and the film. Thank you both for finally being here for me." i grabbed Brady's hand and pulled both of them into a big hug. "So, who's going to pay? i only have monopoly money in my purse."
"Why do you have monopoly..." they both trailed off at the same time and i giggled.
"Well... if i got mugged or something, you're meant to have false identification or keys or things like that so that the thieves can't trace back to you and come and punch you in the face while you're sleeping." the look of bewilderment at my obvious genius made me a little nervous. "doesn't everyone do that?"
"If i were a theif, i'd not go back to the scene of the crime."
"I would. just to look into your big browny greeny eyes." i blinked up at Brady who was staring down at me with an odd expresssion before Collin punched him on the arm and he shook his head. "I mean, erm... nope. I'd do what collin did. or erm... not rob you in the first pla..ce....?" i just laughed and decided to put down in my diary which i hardly ever write in that Brady can be weird sometimes.
"When's the pizza going to arrive? and did you write in the little box of specifications for the guy to dress in a costume and sing happy birthday?" Collin frowned, bit his lip and then smiled brightly, nodding.
"I think i may have remembered your usual requirements." i grinned and turned to Brady.
"Okay, Brady, go to the kitchen and find some dishes to wash up and cups. They should be draining and Collin" i turned back to him "go help."
"Wait, why are they draining on the side if we have a dishwasher?" Collin called as they got to the kitchen door and i was halfway up the stairs.
"I'm sorry, but if you want your arms cut off and disfigured loads by them getting caught by the evil thing which lives in the dishwasher, go ahead. but don't expect me to help when you're screaming."
"What evil thing? what's it's name?" i heard a hint of fear in his voice and almost giggled but it was a serious matter and so i couldn't be at all funny or make a quip.
"It's called Limescale apparently and only Calgon can get rid of it. It's slowly killing the dishwasher and i have no idea what to do with the Calgon, do i put it in with the dishes, so i put it on the top? round the back? you know i'm not good with instructions."
I know it's only short and i'm sorry for not updating sooner, i've been so busy with exams and prep for a trip away and the trip away and singing at westminster abbey and writers block. sorry again but i'll update tonight DEFINITELY! you have my permission to kill me if i don't (please don't :S i'll update i promise!)
