"GET IT!"

"IM TRYING!"

Vee and I both start screaming at our Nintendo screens while his character runs around in circles trying to catch a butterfly that's refusing to be caught.

"SWING NOW NOW." I yell at him and he slams the buttons, his character bringing the net down onto the butterfly finally.

"YESS!" Vinnie yells while we both jump onto our knees in a celebratory fashion. "I thought I was going to cry!"

"I almost broke mine the other day because the game so I wouldn't judge you." I admit as I set my controller to the side. "Are you getting hungry yet?"

"No but I probably will be once the pizza gets here." He sets his own controller to the side while I stand up off of my bed.

I go over to where I left my purse, next to my clothes rack and grab my phone from inside. I return to the bed and plop down onto it. I lay out beside him and he lays down next to me as well.

"Where do you want the pizza from?" I ask as I look up local pizza places on my phone.

He looks over me to my screen, "Erm.. I usually just get donatos."

"That works." I press the screen to go to their site, "What kind of pizza?"

"I'll eat anything." He leans his head against my shoulder, and I lean mine against his.

Holy shit I did that without even thinking. Does he think I'm weird? Oh god he probably thinks I'm weird.

"How's Hawaiian sound?" I ask softly as I lean up off of him.

"You eat Hawaiian?" He turns his face toward me, and when I turn my own, i literally almost brush my nose against his.

I pull back to see his face, my brows furrowed, "You gonna shit on me for liking Hawaiian?"

"Fuck no." He shakes his head, a smile growing on his lips. "I love Hawaiian."

Wow, we're more alike than I thought.

I sigh in relief, "I thought I was going to have to defend myself."

He smiles and looks away from me and to my phone screen that's locked. "Holy shit you really made that your Lock Screen?"

I look down at the Wanda maximoff edit he made for me and then look back up at him. "I don't lie babe." HOLY SHIT I CALLED HIM BABE. CHANGE THE SUBJECT CHANGE THE SUBJECT. BUT SLY BE SLY ABOUT IT. "My sister saw it when I dropped her off the other day."

That wasn't random but random at the same time.

"How many siblings do you have?" He asks, making the fanfare in my brain trigger

I look down at my phone, and answer, "Two. A younger sister who's 17, and a older brother who's 24." I stop scrolling through the donatos app to go to my gallery. "I'm also an auntie. Craig has a daughter named Melody." I click on a picture of Mel and tilt my phone so Vinnie can see her better.

"Shes adorable- holy shit she looks just like you." He looks between the picture and me, "A little version of you."

"That's my Minnie Mouse." I nod in agreement, "She's three, just turned in February. Do you have siblings?"

"Erm yea, I've got Reggie. He's younger than me." He responds to my question. "He lives with my parents."

"Oh yea, doesn't he look like a spitting image of you? A little version." I tease him with exactly what he told me, making him scrunch up his nose and lean toward me.
