5- Wishing For Right Now

-Destiny's POV-

Over the last few weeks I could see both Emerson and Remington trying to flirt with me.

"Kellin, can we talk?" I spoke, walking into his room and sitting down

"What's up kiddo?" He spoke and I leaned on his shoulder

"I think Emerson and Remington are fighting over me" I spoke and he looked at me shocked

"Why do you say that?" He spoke and I sighed

"Because they've both been flirting with me constantly, and trying to one up the other one all the time." I spoke and took a breath before speaking again

"I will say that Emerson has the upper hand here though. He's the only one who actually cared enough to ask for my number, and the only one who makes it a point to make sure I ate, and have had water" I spoke and Kellin was giving me puppy dog eyes.

"If you like him, go for it" Kellin spoke and I sighed

"That's not what I'm getting at Kell, they're fighting over me, and I don't know what to do" I spoke and Kellin sighed

"Do you want me to talk to Sebastian when we go in to rehearse today?" He spoke and I nodded, hoping he'd get the hint.

-Kellin's POV-

Destiny was never the type to enjoy confrontation, so I'd do most of it for her. I've confronted ex boyfriends, friends, even our parents once or twice, what could go wrong this time?

We got to the studio to rehearse and before we started I pulled Sebastian aside.

"Everything okay Kellin?" He spoke and I sighed.

"We need to talk about your brothers" I spoke, very bluntly and he looked disappointed

"What'd they do this time?" He spoke and I cleared my throat before I pointed directly at them, where they were fighting over Destiny, again.

"Oh. that. They've been fighting over her for like three days" He spoke and my eyes went wide

"Seriously?" I spoke and he nodded.

"Can I let you in on a little secret?" I spoke again and Sebastian perked up.

"Destiny said, and I quote 'I will say that Emerson has the upper hand here though. He's the only one who actually cared enough to ask for my number, and the only one who makes it a point to make sure I ate, and have had water' And if that doesn't tell you which one of them she's falling for, I don't  know what will" I spoke and Sebastian perked up again, before pointing to a seemingly angry Remington, and Emerson and Destiny actually talking.

-Destiny's POV-

"Hey, Destiny, can I talk to you really quick?" Emerson spoke and I smiled, walking over to him

"What's up?" I spoke, hoping that this was going where I thought it was going.

"I just wanted to talk, and I wanted to tell you that I like you, a lot" He spoke and I felt myself blush

"I like you too Emerson, a lot." I spoke and his eyes lit up like a Christmas Tree

"Really? Remington said that I'd be too antisocial for you" He spoke and I felt my heart break.

I walked just a few steps closer to him as to be able to hear him over everyone else yelling.

"Well, he's wrong. I like you, not matter how antisocial you are, because you're being who you are, and that's all I care about." I spoke, smiling.

After a few minutes Kellin came over and spoke

"Okay love birds. We gotta rehearse" He spoke and I laughed

"Give us just a second" Emerson spoke and I smiled.

Kellin walked away and Emerson smiled at me before speaking.

"Would you like to go out on a date sometime?" He spoke and I smiled before kissing his cheek softly

"I'd love to" I spoke and he smiled, we walked back to the rehearsal space and I just couldn't take my eyes off of him.

We got home and Kellin sat me down on the couch

"Okay spit it out." He spoke and I laughed

"Destiny Alaina! I'm serious!" he spoke and I laughed again

"Ever heard of just calling me by my first name? Anyways, nothing really happened, but we're going on a date" I spoke and he smiled, hugging me close

Kellin had always wanted me to get back into the dating game, and I never thought I'd be able to do it after what happened between my ex and I, more on that later.

I couldn't have asked for a more supportive brother.
