"Hello?" Jamie answered his phone. His voice was rough and groggy with sleep. He rolled over so that he was lying on his back.
"Hey."
A smile instantly made its way to his face. "Hey Soph. What's up?" He asked a little more awake.
"Can you buzz me up? I forgot my key."
"Yeah, just give me a minute."
He got out bed and made his way to the front room. He hit the button and waited for his sister to make her way up. When she walked through the door he met her with a cup of hot coca and a concerned look.
Her clothes were damp and her hair dripped water down her cheeks as it stuck to her face. He hadn't even known it was raining. For the first time since the phone rang he looked at a clock.
He was shocked to see that it was three in the morning. He looked back a Sophie with worry in his eyes.
"How did you get here?"
She shrugged as she took a sip of the hot drink. "I walked."
Jamie put his mug down. "Soph, you live across town and it the middle of the night."
"I know."
"Why?"
"I missed you." She wrapped her hands around her mug, holding it close to her.
"You would have seen me in a few days."
"I know."
Jamie sighed then made his way over to her. He took her mug from her hands and set it down next to his own. He made her stand up then pulled her into a hug.
"Sophie." He said quietly. "What's wrong?"
She started a little at her name. Jamie never called her by her full name.
"I just miss you. Mom is always working and I'm alone most of the time.
"Mom's always worked a lot though. People don't take a break from being sick. Why is it so important now?"
She shrugged into his chest, taking comfort in his strong arms. "I hate being alone all the time Jamie. It didn't matter when you lived at home because you were there. It's just me now and I hate it."
He could feel water seeping into his shirt, but he didn't know if she was crying or if it was from the rain.
"Shhh. It's okay, it's okay." He ran a hand through her hair, moving it out of her face. "Listen, you turn seventeen, in what, a week?"
"Six days."
"Okay. As my gift to you, on your birthday you can move in here with me. But," He paused to make sure she was listening. "You still have to go to school and keep your grades up. You also need to know that I'm not going to be here all the time. I do go outside sometimes. Mostly the hours you would be in school, but I'm still not always here."
"I didn't think you would be, goof. Are you sure?"
"More than I was about Prom."
She made a sound that was somewhere between a laugh and a sob. She held onto him tighter. "Thank you so much. I love you."
"Love you too kiddo. Now let's get you some dry clothes. I'll take you home in the morning."
An hour later found Sophie asleep on the couch with a smile on her face. Living with her brother was going to be the best years of her life, she just knew it.
A/N What is it about this fandom that makes me want to write angst even though I'm bad at it. 4) I'll be honest, I started this game because I needed something to put in the author's , thanks for reading and reviewing!
