I get inside my room, locking it and throw myself on the bed. I try to sleep so I stop overthinking but I really can't control my emotions now. I have to let them out. I started crying and hugged my pillow.
Someone knocked on the door, I can't really talk to anyone at the moment.

"open the door." It was Steven.
"I don't want to talk right now." I manage to say it loudly.
"Please, Evei..I am not going from here till you open this.."
He is stubborn, I quickly wipe off my tears and open the door.
"Are you alright?" He asks.
I nod while avoiding his eyes.
"You seriously think you can lie to me?" He smiles.
"Steven, please."
"Did you fight with Conrad?"
"No."
"Alright don't tell me..I will stay here only." He sits on the bed.

"You're really annoying."
"I don't think that was my question."
"No..I didn't fight with Conrad..He rarely talks nowadays why will I fight with him?" I replied while holding back my tears.
"that's it?"
"Fine, I broke up with Aiden but I am happy I did it..he was a pervert jerk anyways."
"but he played with my feelings." I snivelled.
"just tell me he tried to touch you and I'll kill that asshole."
"he didn't."
He hugged me and I really needed that hug right now. I felt a little better as I shared everything that was going in my mind with someone and let my emotions out.

"it's okay..don't you dare cry over that fucking creature."
I smile.
"Let's go and have ice-cream so you stop thinking about that piece of shit.."
"Actually..i just want to sleep."
"God! You're so lazy..but don't you dare cr.."
"Yeah I won't cry over that fucking creature." I smile.

"If I was there in place of you I would have slapped him right there." Isa said while blow-drying her hair.
"How could he even do.." she continues.
"Relax, Isa..it's over now..honestly i don't wanna talk about it anymore." I say.
"Alright."
"Tell me about your date with Cam, did you ask him to the deb ball?"
"oh..umm..no." she stuttered.
"That's alright..but make sure you ask him soon." I reply.
"no..actually we broke up..but it's not like um..we ended on good terms."

I quickly got up and hugged her.
"I...I really couldn't feel the sparks between us.."
"It's alright, Isa."
"um..i have more to tell you."
"Spill the tea, sis."
"Okay..sit down and listen."
I do as she says.
"I...I kissed..Jere...Jeremiah."
"for real?" I gasped.
"Oh my gosh...I always rooted for you two since the last three years...Team Jelly finally!" I exclaimed.
"what's Team Jelly ?" she asks.
"Seriously Isa...it means I want you and Jeremiah to end up together!"
"I am team conrad then."
"don't be...Conrad has changed alot now..he's not the same Conrad on whom I had a crush."

"why don't you guys just talk it out?"
"because he doesn't want to talk, Isa. I tried to approach him so many times but he keeps making excuses...well you know what..my crush on him is kinda over now."
"It's difficult..but you guys will sort it out I know."
"C'mon let's have a movie marathon..mom and Susannah aren't home right now..we can do whatever we want." she smiles an evil smile.
"No funny business, Belly." I try imitating Laurel.
"Woah..that was on point." she laughs.
"Let's binge watch the Halloween series." I say.
"Of course..with some ice-cream." she gives me a hi-fi.

Isa, Jeremiah and Steven are still in the living room binge watching the movie, I decided to come outside for a while...well Conrad is here as well. I decided to ignore him but I couldn't when I saw his frightened face as he clutched his chest.

"Conrad are you alright?" I rushed over to him.
"I..I can't breathe." He struggled to say.
He was having a panic attack, I could make out now. I know how uncomfortable and miserable panic attacks are.

"It's..it's okay...Conrad..take some deep breaths."
He takes some deep breaths and let them out slowly.
"You're gonna be fine..okay..I am here for you."  I put my hand on his shoulder.
His breathing returned to normal now.
"Eve...thanks." he says.
"don't cry...it's alright now." I gently wiped away the tears from his eyes.
"Eve...mom.."
"mom? what happened to Susannah?"
He doesn't reply and just hugs me while resting his head on my shoulder.
"She's not well..Eve." he says slowly
"but..alright we will take Susannah to the doctor tomorrow..but do you know what has happened to her?"
"She...her..um.." he stuttered.
"It's okay..we'll talk about it tomorrow..you should rest now."

We both go inside the house and the three of them just stare at me and Conrad holding hands. Isa smirks.
"Um..Jeremiah can you please take Conrad to his room?" I say breaking the silence.
"Yeah..sure."  Jeremiah replies.
"No..I can go." Conrad says
I give him a stare and he quietly goes upstairs with Jeremiah.

"What happened...did he drink again?" Steven asks.
"No..he had a panic attack." I reply.
"A panic attack..Conrad never used to get them before." Isa says.
"I know..I told you something's going on with him." I say.

Steven & Evelyn are sibling goals <33

Hope you have a good day;)
Love y'all!!!!
