Chapter 33 - Rollercoaster p1 ♡

an: no there's not an actual rollercoaster, it'll make sense later 👍🏻

Max's POV-

A few days had past since we were sick. Those were the worst days of my life, I wouldn't have survived if it wasn't for Jane.

She went home once she felt better, so I was stuck alone with Billy for the third day in a row. We were both sitting on the couch, watching some random comedy movie I really wasn't paying attention to.

"You know, you're not a bad sister." Billy randomly announced. It sounded like he was waiting to say that.

I turned to look at him and scrunched my eyebrows, "What makes you say that?"

He looked over at me instead of the tv and smiled slightly, "Over the years I always thought you were an annoying wart, but recently I realized you're not that bad. I mean, you annoy me when you and Jane go at it so hard that people from China can hear you, but we have gone through hell together you know? And at the end of the day, you're still my baby sister and I love you."

My jaw dropped, "Are you real? Is this real?"

"Pretty sure I'm real.."

We stayed quiet for a few moment before I broke the silence, "Well I love you too."

"This is weird." He cringed slightly.

"Yeah, considering we've probably only said 'i love you' like twice." I snickered.

"But that doesn't mean I didn't love you. It was just weird to say it, you know?" Billy explained.

I nodded, "Yeah, I understand."

I watched Billy as he thought to himself for a few seconds. I wondered what he could possibly be thinking about. Was he going to tell me it was a prank to get me to say 'i love you'?

"How about I go out and get some ice cream so we can make those huge sundaes we used to make with mom?" He suggested with a child like smile.

A grin spread across my face, "Billy you're a genius!" I exclaimed excitedly. "Want me to come with?"

"You can't, moms at work and Delilah can't be left home alone." He frowned slightly, "But I'll grab the stuff as fast as I can and get back in 20 minutes tops."

"Promise?" I held out a pinky.

He grinned and held out his pinky too, linking it with mine. "Promise."

"Okay hurry up dingus." I stood up and shooed him off of the couch. He laughed and hurried towards the door, waving at my quickly before he left.

Once he was gone I smiled to myself, I never would have imagined he'd try to bond with me again. That's something he hadn't done since I was like eight years old. I just had to tell Jane. I ran over to the nearest phone and dialed her number, it rang a few times while I was waiting impatiently for her to pick up.

"Hello?"

"Hey!"

"Max?"

"Jane!"

"Hey love! It's so good to hear from you. Did something good happen? You sound happier than usual."

"You wouldn't believe it Jane, me and my brother are bonding. Like seriously bonding. He's out getting ice cream right now so we can make sundaes like we used to when we were little!"

"Really? That's so amazing Max!"

"I know. I'm so exciteddd"

"Let me know how it goes!"
