"did you need something?" i asked Tahlia,peeping in the room at jordon,really wanting to go back and lay him back on my chest.

"i..come talk to me." she looked unsure what to say so she grabbed my hand and walked with me to the kitchen. i sat at the table and watched her tensely from my seat.all she was doing was getting some ice cream,which i can dig,but seriously? i left jordon for this? she was filling up 2 bowls with rocky road.i drummed my fingers against the table very impatiently, hoping to encourage the little fiend to say something.

"not trying to be rude,but if you brought me out here for ice cream, i appreciate the gesture but I'd best be getting back to jo-"

"how do you feel about my brother? are your feelings serious, do you love him, do you look at him the same way he looks at you, or are you just looking for a fling? because if you are your with the wrong person," i let her continue a little stunned,

" you've seen parts of my brother that he tries his hardest to conceal.but the oddest part,is that he seamed almost eager to show you himself.I've never seen him so..just..himself with anyone.and i dont understand why its you,no offence."i mumbled 'wow thanks to myself,but understood what she meant.i was weird and quiet and just so..plain.why did he choose me? there was a so much tension in the air you couldnt even cut it with a knife.i knew i hadn't answered her question yet.eventually though,Tahlia spoke up.

"ya know, when jordon was little we used to call him Septu, the Egyption warrior God of protection and defence.well my mom started it and we all followed suite.i never understood the name until a few years ago when i looked the name up.see jordon has always had the tendancy to rush to the defence of the underdog. if it was simple 'he took my Graham cracker ','someone took my lunch money,'or 'they beat up a gay kid in the locker room,' he would always try and help out the victim.so you meeting him was written in the stars." true.she handed me my bowl and we walked to her bedroom.there was a random dresser with a bunch of seemingly out of place objects stacked on it.i sat on the bed awkwardly and felt i should answer her question.

"you know Jordon saved my life once...pretty recently actually..."i stated, playing with the end of my shirt,continuing before she could comment on it, "i was standing over a bridge,ready to jump a he slammed me to the ground.i was so angry at him." i paused,recalling that nasty kiss him and that angle? Annie? something with an 'A' in it shared.

"why?" she asked exasperated.

"a lot of stuff..being disowned,hurt by everyone,including your brother.the ass hat kissed another person..a 'gag' girl.everything was to overwhelming and that's all i really wanted to do.but now I'm so happy that i didn't," i spoke really fast,wanting to get the bad part over with,as tahlia looked at me with sad eyes," i wouldn't know jordon.i wouldn't know his smile,or voice.i wouldnt know that he can make a room glow when ever he walks in it.i wouldn't know how much hurt lies beneath his beautiful green eyes,making us not all to different at all.he makes me feel like I've never felt before.i can't even explain it.like I'm worth someones actual time.like I'm not a waste of oxygen.I'd do anything for him. and I'm not sure if he knows it,or if i know it for that matter,but..i- "

"you love him." Tahlia said so quietly,her voice choked up.she tackled me,not caring about the ice cream which was now on the floor.i felt her warm tears on my cheek."i hate you,stupid fag."she chuckled.i knew what she meant."all the good ones are gay."she pouted."but..your so perfect for my brother,"she sat up and put her hand on my cheek and squished my face around," he deserves someone who cares for him as much as you do.but if you guys ever break up call me cutie." she joked lightly making me chuckle.

"you'll find someone. i swear."

"but why can't i just clone you? "she whined,making me laugh again.it stayed quiet for a bit,and then things got serious again."your hiding something from my brother though.from everyone."my heart sank and i felt my body get warm.
