It's been two days since our conversation with Alex about our mom and Zach.
I stayed most of the time in my room not doing anything. I stole some books from Alex and I'm reading one now. It's getting dark outside.
I'm deep in the story when a knock startles me back into present.
"Can I come in?" I hear my brother's voice.
I quickly shove the book under the pillow. Getting up from the bed I stop for a few seconds because black dots take my vision away. Coming back to reality I open my bedroom door.
"Hey." I smile at Alex.
Please don't know about me stealing your books.
"Hey." He says back. "Zach is coming today and he's staying for a while. I just wanted to make sure if it's okay again."
I let out a breath.
"Yeah, that's okay. Where will he be staying?"
"He's usually in now your room but he'll stay on the couch or in my room."
"Alright."
"He is coming in a few hours. I'll be out and he has his own keys so don't freak out."
"Okay. Anything else?" I give him another smile.
He thinks for a moment "Eat something. Zach will bring pizza. I've already told him not to wait for me because I'll come home quite late." He awkwardly says. His cheeks redden.
Wait
I laugh to myself in my mind.
"Okay. I guess I'll see you later?
"Yup." He pulls me into his arms. "I love you so much." He whispers.
"I love you too." I mumble into his chest.
My brother pulls away and kisses my forehead. He goes down the stairs and after I hear front door close I go back into my bedroom, jump on the bed and pull Alex's smutty book from under the pillow.
~~~
I'm almost at the end of the book when my bedroom door open.
It falls out of my hands on the floor. I look up and see Zachary staring at me.
"Fucking hell! You scared me." I breathe out.
"Oops sorry, Alex hasn't said anything about you staying in here." He tries to apologise.
"No that's okay. I thought he told you." I stand up on the floor stepping over Alex's book to hide it.
This turns his attention to it.
"He let you borrow his books? I was almost killed when I tried to touch them." He looks confused.
"So the thing is I haven't actually asked him and he never said yes-" I start.
"Wait hold on. You stole it?" He whisper yells at me even though Alex isn't here.
"Kind of." I awkwardly smile.
He laughs.
"Soo..is there a reason why he didn't let me read it?" He winks at me.
"You don't want to know." I chuckle and shake my head.
He becomes all serious now. "Be careful though. I don't want him try to kill you too."
