***FIVE YEARS AGO***
ELLA'S MEMORY
"Should we watch Wednesday" I shouted scrolling through movies. We've been trying to pick a movie to watch for over 20 minutes.
All thanks to Karen, we haven't been able to decide on one. She kept shouting No from the Kitchen.
She's been trying to make a few cookies. But I'm sure we'll later end up ordering pizza or something cos her cooking skills are terrible. Mine isn't good either but it's eatable. Hers is always a disaster.
She once made pasta at her place cos she claimed she had started taking cooking lessons. It was terrible, I had never eaten such a terrible pasta all my life. We later had to order take out.
"Let's just watch 365 days" Karen said running from the kitchen with a plate full of cookies. Or would I say burnt cookies. She sat down beside me and snatched the remote from me.
"Why would you want to watch that movie it's more of porn" I said as I faced her squeezing my face in a disgusted manner.
She knows how much erotic romance movies disgust me.I'm sure she's just trying to get me pissed.
"Its a romance movie dummy, you're the one making it look bad. Don't think too much about the things they're doing and just enjoy" Karen said with a huge grin plastered on her face has she clicked on the movie.
"I'm picking the movie next time " I whispered to myself. Not bothering to glance at me Karen picked the blanket on the couch and covered her legs with her eyes glued to the TV.
I guess I just have to give up and watch it. As soon as the movie started I picked up one cookie. As soon as my mouth touched it I was expecting an extra terrible taste. But surprisingly, it wasn't that bad even though it was slightly burnt.
She looked at me waiting for me to make a comment about the cookies.
"Its eatable I guess" I whispered slightly loud enough for her to hear me. As soon I said it she beamed and turned to face the TV again.

Halfway to the movie, I was already getting cringed . I had to get up to go drink water in the kitchen.
Karen didn't even take her eyes off the TV at all as they remained glued to it. She must really love erotic scenes.
As soon as I got to the kitchen and picked a bottle of water in the refrigerator to drink. I heard a beep at the door meaning someone entered.
What the hell. I thought mum and dàd weren't coming home tonight. I ran towards the door only to see my brother, Nathan shuffling in through the corridor.
"What are you doing here" I whispered harshly to him. Dragging him to the end of the corridor so that Karen won't see him . I thought he wasn't coming home tonight cos he had to be with his girlfriend.
Don't get me wrong its not like Karen and my brother aren't on good terms. Its just that I don't like my brother interrupting our time together. I'm very sure that as soon as he enters the living room he's gonna ask to watch the movie with Karen.
And watching a movie with him Is like horror cos he'll always keep on talking during the movie. He's a very bad movie partner
"Well...I'm I not allowed into my parents house anymore" he asked with a confused look on his face. He didn't even bother to reduce his voice.
"I'm I interupting something?" I quickly whipped my head towards the source of the sound which sounded so familiar.its deep and velvety and has a rasp that makes me shiver slightly . My eyes grew a saucers size.
Standing just a few feets from my brother, In all his glory, Daxon Tennyson. He is Nathan's best friend. With beautiful cerulean eyes and jet black hair. He has strong facial features and a slightly muscular body sculpted specially by the one above. He's tall and angular and dripping with sex appeal.
Yuck, It feels cringy thinking all these . This thinking is wrong on every level. But it's not my fault he's always looking like a meal I want to devour whole . I don't even know how he and my brother became friends cos they're complete polar opposites. Its not like my brother isn't handsome . He just cant ever be on par with this handsome man.
My brother has dull blue eyes, we both got it from our mum. Quite handsome though cos we both got good genes.
Nathan and Dax has basically been best friends since forever. They used to go to high school together I was still around 10 then. They'd have lots of sleep overs at each other houses so I got to see him a lot. He's more like family. Even still now they attend the same college.
" Ella here wants me to to move out of my parents house" Nathan snickered turning to look at Dax who looked slightly confused. He had a plain black hoodie on with blue jeans that slightly hugged his legs. A few rings were scattered on his long fingers making me want to run my fingers over them.A few strands of his long hair resting on his forehead while the remaining were hidden under the hoodie. He looks so edible. Arrrgh. Get it together Ella.
" I just asked why you weren't at your girlfriend's place like you said you would be " I whisper-yelled at him trying not to make too much noise to alert Karen.
" Why are you whispering" Nathan whispered back. Ugh so annoying. Dax looked towards the living room then looked back at Nathan.
" C'mon let's stay at my place then" Dax said placing his hand on Nathan's shoulder.
" No, who the hell is in the living room, your boyfriend?" Nathan snickered annoying me further. Gosh he's so slow witted. As much as I love my brother, right now all I want to do is give him a flick on his head to help him think well.
" Its just Karen, she's watching a movie in the living room. We're having a sleepover" I said folding my hands to my chest.
" Well...let me say hi to her then" Nathan said about to move when Dax started dragging him towards the door. Thank the lord at least someone with some sense.
" Thank you" I whispered loud enough for Dax to hear. He gave me a quick wink before finally going out the door with my brother whispering harshly while being dragged. Oh goodness my poor heart. Even when he's just being friendly, I keep getting stupid butterflies.
I quickly ran to the living room to find a giggling Karen giving her undivided attention to the TV. I quietly slipped down beside her trying to make the least amount of noise possible. Unfortunately, it didn't go unnoticed by her.
"What took you so long?" Karen asked looking at me.
"You missed the most interesting part " she said slightly pissed.
" Sorry I felt uneasy so I went to use the toilet" I said the lie flowing easily through my mouth. She was no longer looking at me, her face already turned back towards the TV .
"Well it's going to be a long night" I looked up towards the TV as I whispered to myself.

Romance" It doesn't matter how I feel Dax, being with you isn't proper" I stated whispering lowly as I stared into his eyes. There's only one thing I see, Lust. I can't deny the fact that a part of me wants him. A small part of my heart still beats for h...
