Khaos

Chapter Twelve

Khaos Caddell

I used my new phone to get back into contact with my cousin. I didn't memorize his number, but I had a notebook with a bunch of backup info like my passwords and people's numbers. Luckily i was smart enough to bring it. Not like I'd leave it for someone at home to find. I'd never live it down if they got into my accounts.

The phone was ringing for what felt like forever before he picked up. This was my third time calling him. He usually didn't answer random numbers but I knew if I called him enough times he'd get annoyed and answer eventually. Which is exactly what was happening.

"What?" His voice sounded annoyed.

"I'm bored." I say into the phone as I pet Scully. He purred and rubbed against my stomach.

"I thought John said they took away phones and shit?" Does he really think so little of me?

"If you think they can get much of a hold on me, then you really don't know me, Noah. Since when have I ever sat and listened?" I could hear Ronan groaning and throwing a pillow on his head, and I can't help but smirk to myself.

He makes it too easy to fuck with him.

"Touché" is Noah's only answer.

"How is everyone?" I ask him.

He sighs. "It's basically a shit hole at this point. Your mom and dad are always arguing so johns baely stops by anymore. Your ma stopped cooking for everyone so abuela took over the kitchen fully. The kids are still a annoying as ever and my parents are still down as fuck.''

"So I take it my moms crying over me?" I smile at that, but feel like smacking myself at the same time.

"Eh, she's just annoyed at your dad. Not really sad, just mad." Once again I want to smack something. "So how'd you get a phone? I take it this isn't your old one since, you know, new number and everything."

"What can I say? I'm a charmer."

Ronan snorts at that. I throw my pillow at his bed and he chucks it back at me. It hits me in my face and knocks the phone out of my hand. "You little fucker."

"Pretty sure you're shorter than me, and have less muscle too." I want to say that's a lie, but it really isn't.

"You fucker." I correct. He smirks and turns over in his bed.

I scramble to pick up my phone, a mix of annoyance and amusement bubbling within me. Scully eyes me with disdain, clearly unimpressed by the sudden commotion.

"Sorry about that, Noah. Ronan here thinks he's a comedian," I explain, shooting a glare at my infuriating roommate.

"Ronan?" He questions. Its only then that i realize he i have to actually tell him things for him to know about them. I roll my eyes, leaning back against the wall. "Yeah, he's my roommate. An annoying asshole that i just wanna mmm, you know?

Ronan, undeterred by my comments, throws another pillow at me. This time, I dodge it with ease. "You're just jealous because I'm the better roommate."

I scoff. "Better at what? Annoying the hell out of people?"

"I think i just said you're the more annoying one. I'm the sexy comedic main character." I flip him off and go back to my conversation with Noah.

Noah chuckles on the other end of the line. "Sounds like a lively place you've got there."

"More like all the liveliness is gonna be real dead, real soon if it doesn't shut its mouth." With my di—No, Khaos. You cannot be horny right now your brother is on the other end of the phone.

"Apparently, he thinks he's the king of the castle." I mutter and Ronan smirks at me like he knows just what I'm thinking. Ronan props himself up on his elbows and my gods. I think I'm gonna have to kill him.

I direct my attention back to the phone.

"Anyway, How are you really doing there?" Noah asks, concern evident in his voice.

I glance at Ronan, who's now pretending not to eavesdrop. "Surviving, I guess. It's not a complete walk in the park, but I've got Scully to keep me company. And Nik. My new bestie. He's replacing you."

"Lies. No one can replace me. Im one in ten billion."

"Noah, i hate to break it to you, but there's only about 8 billion people on this earth."

"My point exactly."

"Okay I better get going before your dumbness spreads to me. Tell everyone i said hi."

"Will do. Make sure to call me every now and then. Don't completely ignore me or your parents."

"Yeah, yeah. I know. Bye."

He hangs up before saying bye back. I roll my eyes and turn over to Ronan.

I'm immediately met with a pillow to the face.

"Ronan i swear, im gonna kill you in your sleep."

"Poprobuy menya, Suka."

"Okay I don't know what those first words mean, but rude. I'm not a bitch. You're the bitch. Suck my di-" another pillow is thrown at my face. How many pillows does this man have?

I'm gonna smother him in his sleep, I swear to the gods. I'm gonna smother him with my tongue.

Oh my gods. No, stop. Brain, you can't be doing me like that. Not right now.
