My Brother's Best Friend

five

I woke up and forgot where I was again. I checked under the sheets; I still had the same clothes on from yesterday.

I turn over and there's a guy. Who had his arm around me? It's Garrett. I can tell from the brunette, short but shaggy hair, his muscles flexed through his thin white cotton t-shirt.

But what is he doing sleeping in my room? Isn't his room just down the hall?

"Would you be still? I'm trying to sleep?" Garrett murmured, catching me off guard.

"Well, I'm sorry for disturbing you in my room," I argued back. "Why are you in here?" He didn't respond, he chose to ignore me. He eventually sat up and stretched, showing off his muscles even more.

"Are you done drooling over me?" He snapped me out of my irregular thoughts. I guess I happened to be staring at him when thinking about what was happening.

I shook my head, "Sorry you are just so drool-worthy," I sarcastically told him. I grabbed my phone off the nightstand and checked the time. It was almost noon! I scratch the top of my head, "What happened last night?"

"We were watching a movie on the couch, and you made me carry you upstairs, and demanded I snuggle with you all night."

"Oh." That is all I said. Was that even true? I got out of my warm bed walked over towards my drawer, and pulled out one of my bathing suits.

"Where are you going?" He asked curiously.

I held up my bathing suit and shook it around, "going swimming. It's late already." I kind of hated how mean I was to him sometimes. Hatred just flows out of my mouth.

He ran his hand through his hair and got up from my bed and started making his way towards the door. "Where are you going?" I asked.

"Well, I am not going to be in here when you change, that is not right, and I'm going to change into my bathing suit. I wanna come with." I rolled my eyes and waited for him to get out of my room.

Matt is at work all day, so I just sent him a text telling him where we would be. I changed and grabbed a towel out of my closet, and grabbed my headphones and sunglasses on the way out of my room.

"Garrett?" I said knocking on his door. I opened it, no Garrett. "Garrett?" This time I walked downstairs to the kitchen. No Garrett, again. "Gar."

"Boo!"

That's when a scream came out of my mouth. "What the hell is wrong with you?" I screamed again. He started to obnoxiously laugh so hard, I turned around and left. "I hate you," I muttered walking out of the kitchen and making my way towards the back door to head to the beach.

He stopped laughing and looked at me with a serious face, "Nah, you love me," he was blocking the door. I pushed him out of the way, opened the door, and started walking to the beach.

Garrett came running after me, "What is your problem all of a sudden?"

"Well considering you just scared the life out of me I have a reason to have a problem."

He threw his hands up in the air, "Women." But he never put his arms down and began wailing them around.

I giggled, "Okay, stop you are now embarrassing me more than yourself."

"I could embarrass you even more..."

"Honestly I would embarrass you even more than you ever could." I was cut off by him picking me up off the ground. I groaned...I'm once again dangling off of Garrett Adam's shoulders. "Garrett. I feel like I'm going." He threw me on the ground, my butt landing on the sand before I could finish my sentence.
