Today was Saturday, and I was heading down to the res to tell the boys about my new boyfriend. It was raining pretty heavily, so I rode my bike slower, dressed in extra layers to keep the cold out. I pulled up to Jared's house, and his mom greeting me when I ran in from the rain. I could hear the boys up in Jared's room, so I headed on in. I'm here often enough that Jared's parents don't even mind when Paul or I walk around like we live there.
"Sup, Idiots!" I greet them as I open the bedroom door.
"Angel!" "Dragon!" They both say happily in greeting, not getting up from their game they're intensely playing.
"Who's winning and what are we playing today?" I say as I sit myself down in between them while they're playing.
"Medal of Honor today, and I am destroying whittle baby Jawed today." Paul says, imitating a whiny baby voice.
I look at Jared once I see his character die on the screen while Paul gloats. I raise an eyebrow to Jared in suggestion, and he smirks and hands over his controller. I turn back to Paul with a smirk of my own, waving the controller to show I now have it.
"Sounds to me like you're getting too cocky. Shall we play a game?" I say spookily to him. We play a few rounds of the campaign, and I win 4/5 times. I may not be the best player, but when I'm determined, I can kick some butt.
"Don't you have like 15 other hobbies you could be doing right now instead of making us look bad?" Paul whines to me as he shoves my shoulder after he dies again, throwing his controller away in frustration.
"Making you look bad is my favorite pass-time though!" I cheekily say to them.
"How was your week in pale folks town? How's your 'more than an acquaintance' Mr. Hand-kisser?" Jared asks me tauntingly, taking his controller back from me.
"Glad you asked! He shall need to be name changed from Mr. Hand-kisser to Mr. Face-kisser." I tell them with a smirk on my face.
Silence follows that for a moment.
Then they both shout out and start talking over each other rapidly. I swear, they are worse than girls with the gossip and fretting around.
"Shut it! Be quiet and I'll tell you!" I shout at them, and they both shut up and look at me expectantly. At this moment, I have to pause because they literally both look like puppies and I'm trying not to laugh at the irony.
"We went out on our first date last Sunday, in Seattle, it was all super romantic and wonderful and I won't bore you with the details, but long story short he asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes. We had our second date last night, and he got to meet Charlie and then we went to dinner and movie. Oh! The new Spider-Man movie is great, you guys should see it." I tell them happily as I play through a solo mission on the game while their brains were processing.
"You like this guy? Like he actually interests you?" Paul asks me seriously. They both know I haven't been interested in anyone before, but also we're young so I hardly thought much of it before.
"Yeah, he's a good one. I'm excited to see where this goes, I have a good feeling." I tell them honestly, a small smile creeping on my face as I think of my soulmate.
"Then we'll just have to meet him ourselves then. Can't have you off dating someone without them knowing about your bodyguards." Jared says confidently.
"Bodyguards?" I say to them with a challenging brow raised. "You realize I would beat you every time in a fight, right?"
"Oh no doubt, little dragon, but we're your brothers, and we will still need to meet the sap. So, set it up and make it happen soon. And hand over the controller, it's my turn!" Paul says, moving the conversation along as he steals the controller from my hand.
