The First Date And Spying
Phil and Kimi stood in the house until Tommy and Lil drove off. He turned to Kimi "I still don't trust him"
Kimi put her hands on Phil's arms and gave him a smile "I'm sure she'll be fine." she laughed before shrugging "If you really don't trust the guy, just spy on their date." she laughed again until she saw Phil smile and she started shaking her head "Phil, no. I was just kidding!"
Phil grabbed her hand and started towards the door and grabbed his keys "Too late, you put the idea in my head so it's happening." Kimi groaned as Phil dragged her out of the house and to his car "It'll be fine. We're both sneaky, she won't see us."
Kimi looked down the road "How do you even know where they went?"
"They just left. And I'm sure it was just the local restaurant."
Kimi nodded and buckled up "I guess you're right."
Phil started driving to the restaurant he figured they'd be at and pulled in. Kimi looked around and pointed to a car "They are here." she turned to Phil and shook her head "How is it outside of school you can be so clever but in school you just don't care?"
He shut the car off and gave Kimi a smile "Easy, I don't care about school and I care about my sister, and when it comes to my sister I actually think before my actions."
"Unless it's beating someone up for hurting her, then your actions are the last thing in your mind."
Phil laughed and nodded "Exactly." he unbuckled and got out of the car, Kimi following him.
They walked in and sat at one of the tables near the wall. Kimi rested her chin in her hand and looked at Phil "So, is this a date for us?"
"It can be" he smiled at her and then looked over to where Tommy and Lil were. Lil was smiling at whatever Tommy was saying. He did have to admit that the two of them looked pretty happy when with each other, but that didn't change that he doesn't like him. "If you want me to be honest, they look okay together."
"Only okay?" Kimi looked over at them and smiled "They look cute together, Phil."
Phil sighed. He didn't want to say that they were 'cute' together. That wouldn't be like him at all. He ordered their food and glanced back over at Lil and Tommy. Kimi reached across the table and touched his arm "Stop spying. She knows how to take care of herself if anything happens. She's lucky to have a brother like you."
Phil leaned across the table and gave her a kiss before their food got there. Phil started eating and watched as Lil and Tommy left the restaurant. He had no idea where they were going now, so he took his time eating and enjoyed his time with Kimi. He paid the check and grabbed Kimi's hand as they walked out. "Hey Phil, can we stop at Starbucks?"
Phil gave her a smile and put his arm around her "Anything for you."

Tommy and Lil were walking out of the restaurant now on their way to the movie theater. She was smiling and looking up at him. He was telling her a story of this football camp he went to once with Phil. Not only Phil, but the whole football team. It was about Phil's hatred towards him and how he tackled him and broke his wrist.
"That sounds like something Phil would do." she said with a smile and looked straight ahead "At least you're okay now."
Tommy smiled down at her "Yeah. I'm able to play now. I kept telling myself that I'd get him back but... Then I met you." Lil looked up at him and blushed "I decided that I didn't want to do anything that would jeopardize my chances with you. I knew that hurting your brother in any way would do just that."
Lil put her arm through his as they walked "I don't understand why Phil thought you were a bad person. You're actually really sweet."
Tommy smiled again as they turned into the theater and he bought their tickets "Is he expecting you home by a certain time?"
Lil shook her head as she walked into the movie theater and took a seat towards the middle "I don't think so. I think he's slowly warming up to the thought of you"
Tommy nodded. She had no idea what Phil said to him earlier. In a way, it was true that he was warming up to him. But it was forced. Deep down Tommy knew that Phil would always have this hatred for him. "Me too."
By the end of the movie, Lil was tired and ready to go home. Tommy was even nice enough to open the car door for her. He held her hand on the drive back to her house and even walked her to the door.
They were sitting on the porch swing, not ready for the date to end. Lil had a better time than she thought she was going to, and she had to admit, she had some strong feelings for him. She pulled her phone out and looked at the time before sighing "I think it's time for you to get home." she stood up and walked over towards the front door.
Tommy was now standing in front of her. She put her arms around his neck and pulled him into a hug "I had a really good time tonight." she said pulling away.
Tommy left his hands on her waist and smiled "I did too. I have a quick question before I leave."
"Yeah?"
"Do you want to be my girlfriend?"
Lil's smile grew and she pulled him into another hug "I'd love to!"
She pulled away again but before she could walk away Tommy had pulled her close to him and his lips were now inches from hers. She wasn't protesting or trying to stop him so he moved closer, closing the space between them and putting his lips on hers.
A car pulled up in the driveway but neither of them noticed. Phil got out and made a face of disgust. He let the guy go on a date with his sister, that didn't mean he could kiss her. He walked up the steps and cleared his throat, causing them to jump away from each other. Phil smirked and walked in between them and looked at Lil "Marissa said to call her about a shift change." he walked in the house with a smile on his face.
Tommy looked at Lil and raised an eyebrow "You have a job?"
Lil nodded "Starbucks." she moved towards the door "I'll see you tomorrow." she said it with a smile before opening the door and walked inside.
For the first time in a long time, Tommy was truly happy. There was something about Lil that made her different from everyone else and he loved it. On his way to his house he came to the conclusion that he didn't want to lose her, and he would go through or do anything to keep her.
Lil walked upstairs to Phil's room and knocked on his door. She opened it and looked over at him before walking in "What do you want, Lillian?" he asked her.
She gave him a smile before kissing his cheek "I know you were spying tonight. I saw you." Phil's smile fell and he looked away from her "Thank you for being a protective brother, Phillip."
