When he asked me if I wanted to watch a movie I almost gasped. Both him and my brother have been avoiding me all week. I drive in the same car as them, I hang out with them in the morning and still they have not said one word to me.

"Sure" I act nonchalant like that wasn't the first thing he's said to me in forever.

"Cool" he walked away.

I grabbed my blanket and walked downstairs in my pajamas and cozy socks.

"Speak of the devil" my brother, Josh said as I walked down the stairs.

"Nice to see you guys can talk, I thought you went mute." I responded to his comment.

Josh rolled his eyes. "What are you on Lott" I shiver at his old nickname. I wish my name could have better nicknames but that's what I'm left with.

"You guys have been avoiding me all week. Haven't spoke one word to me"

"I just did" he said

And with that the conversation was over. I wanted to sit on the chair but my brother was already there so I sat at the end of the couch next to Alex.The couch was small so me and Alex were pretty close. He ended up laying down so his feet were on my lap.

"Get those nastie things off of me" I tell him disgust laced in my voice.

"You love my feet" he said in a seductive tone.

I fake threw up. I grabbed his feet which were thankfully covered in socks. If they weren't I might have actually threw up.

I pulled his legs away from me and off the couch. Who knows what disease's those things have.

He groaned and pulled them on top of me again. Who does he think he is?

"What should we watch?" my brother asks

"The Barbie movie-" I was cut off by Alex

"-a scary movie" he suggested.

My eyes went wide. I hate scary movies. Why are they so scary?

After a while of scrolling through Netflix Josh and Alex chose The Conjuring

No one told me how scary that movie was. There were so many unnecessary jump scares.

Alex sat up and I started to lean towards him. At one of the scary scenes, I promise I wasn't thinking, I jumped at him and hid my head in his chest. Alex was caught by surprise and didn't know what to do.

He eventually wrapped his hands around me and pulled me closer.

"I have to go piss" my brother said not even looking at us.

By then I was laying on Alex's lap and he was combing his fingers through my hair. There was a crashing noise coming from the kitchen that made us both freeze.

Josh was upstairs. I mean we didn't see him go up there but he said he was going up there. Alex paused the movie and we both stood up. We would be the first to die in a horror movie.

Without realizing it I grabbed his hand as we started walking towards the kitchen. I grabbed the first thing I saw on the counter, a fork.

Great, a fork, what am I gonna do? Stab them?

As we walk further into the kitchen a figure jumped at us, in reflex I poked my fork up in the hair and felt it hit flesh. Next a surprised scream sounded about. Alex turned on the light and we saw one of their stupid friends, Conner standing holding his stomach where I scratched him.

It didn't go through him, it just made him bleed.

"What the fuck?!" Conner yelled

Josh started running downstairs, he glanced at me and Alex's conjoined hands then to the fork and blood.

Me and Alex immediately sprung apart.

"I'm so sorry Conner, you shouldn't have scared us like that" I apologize as quickly as I could.

"It's okay it's only a scratch, it just caught me by surprise." He responded

"Want me to get you a bandage?" I offer

He looked like he was gonna pass down the offer, he looked at Alex, then his stomach which I had scratched through his shirt and smirked.

"Yes please, but could you also clean it too, I don't want it to get infected." He says politely

"Sure, follow me" I lead upstairs to the bathroom.

I grabbed the bandages and a cloth.

"Here, sit on the counter" I tell him patting the sink.

Alex and Josh walked in to a half naked Conner on the sink. Conner started smirking and Alex looked almost angry.

I bent down a bit and started dabbing his stomach lightly. He winced and grabbed my arm. Weird it was just water how could that hurt? I shrugged it off and continued to clean.

I placed a bandage on and I slapped his arm, "good as new" I say with a grin.

"Thanks dr. Lottie" he said with a wink.

I giggled and covered my mouth on instinct.

I see Alex roll his eyes, "let's go finish our movie" he said roughly.
