Chapter 3
Hope~
When I woke up the other morning I was so mad at Hayden. Can't believe he threw me in the pool.
I can't lie, I kind of enjoyed being in the water.
At first, it felt like the water could just wash away my worries and everything would be alright.
Sadly it didn't.
"You should dye his hair blu-"
"No pink!" Jessica excitedly screamed. She seems more excited than I am.
"I'll add it to my list," I said writing it down. So far I have spray paint his car, change the wallpaper in his room to a Barbie theme or a Sofia the first one.
"Should I go with Sofia the first or Barbie?" Jessica paused for a second before smiling.
"How about a mickey house theme" smiling I scratched out Barbie and Sofia the first and put Mickey.
"Pink it i-"
"Pink for what?" it was Dean Who interrupted me, he was at the door with his hands cross. He wasn't there last night when Hayden throw me in the pool.
"We're seeking revenge on Hayden her brother" I glared at her. She just gave out my plans.
"Your not Hayden right" Dean laughed.
"No, it's just Dean" I turned the tablet showing her Dean. He waved at her, I then turned the device back to me. I noticed Jessica had this look in her eyes.
"Well, I'll leave you, two girls, to your revenge-seeking" I smiled and watched as he leave.
"Does he have any younger brother by any chance?" she nervously asked.
"Jessica!" she laughed.
"What?! I'm just asking for a friend" the room was filled with laughter.
I and Jessica talked on face time for about an hour and more. When I was done talking to Jessica, I went to see where everyone was.
Jordan is in the gym along with thing one and thing two. What surprised me was that Carter was in the boxing ring with Jayden.
Who knew he could fight.
Anyways ignoring them I made my way to the kitchen to find something to eat. There was no sign of Celia, so I was good.
I walked my way to the cabinet. I found some Oreos, a container of corn flakes of the chocolate kind. I grab the big bag of Oreos and a big bowl them closed the cabinet.
"Jesus!" I yell, this woman needs a bell.
"You seriously need a bell," I told her walking to the refrigerator freezer compartment to grab the ice cream.
"And you seriously need to get it in that little brain of yours I live here" I wanted to roll my eyes but decided not to.
I was raised to respect my elders.
Even if my soul can't take them.
"I'm guessing you read it," she said sitting down.
"So did you" was my only answer, I was too focused on the ice cream.
"I knew a long time ag-"
"Knew what?" grandma interrupts scaring the hell out of me. I'm buying both of them bells.
"Oh, she was telling me something earlier" Celia answers winking at me as she drinks her coffee.
Ignoring her I went back to eating my Oreos and ice cream.
"Isn't it a little too late to eat sweets, Hope?" Grandma questions.
I just shrug was about to answer but Jay walked in. Thank God
"Theirs the birthday boy" birthday boy?
My heart started to beat really fast. Really Hope you know them for months now and still don't know their age or birthday.
I feel embarrassed.
"Nonna my birthday is in 6 days not today" he says which is a relief.
"Have you thought about what you want for your birthday?" Celia asked, the entire room was quiet that if I dropped a needle you'll be able to hear it.
Jay watched her for a second before walking out.
Well, that was awkward and strange.
"Did I do something wrong?" Celia asked my grandma who just kept sipping her tea.
"Dovresti parlargli," she said before leaving.
[You should talk to him]
I really need to start learning Italian.
Leaving Celia alone, I grab the entire container of ice cream and an extra spoon and started to make my way to Jay's room.
I knock on the door and got no answer so I just went in.
"I don't want to ta-"
"Oh it's just you," he says lying back down.
"At least act surprise"
"Go away pleased" he plead.
"Why don't you cheer up mate, I brought you some ice cream and a spoon to eat it with, "I said with my work in a process British accent, which made Jay laughed. Is my accent that bad?
His laugher then turned to tears. I watch as he let all his tears out, I didn't know what to do.
When he was done crying I said the most unthinkable thing.
"Nice wallpaper" I wanted to slap myself but stopped when he laughed.
"You know your horrible right" I smiled putting my hand to my chest.
"You wounded me," I said falling onto his bed.
He laughed again.
"Thank you, Hope," he says wiping his eyes.
"For what?"
"For being here for me" I smiled hugging him.
"That's what cousins are for"
"Right" he smiled.
"Alright lad we should dig away before the ice cream gets cold," I said still trying out my British accent.
"Please stop" he laughed.
"Never"
He chuckles grabbing the ice cream from me.
I'm just glad that I made him laughed.
I feel like wonder woman now.
Okay, I won't push it.
It's nice to make someone laugh for a change.
