Don't leave me...(BoyxBoyxBoy)

Chapter 3 (EDITED)

A/N

I want to thank all the people who have read and voted for this story. I must admit that at the beginning I wasn't sure if people would like it so I can't put it into words just how happy I am.

I also want to explain some things about the story.

It's Carson. Not Carter. No idea why I always get those two names mixed up....

Football- American football.

In Europe we say football instead of soccer so it might be confusing to some people.

I also apologize for the slow updates

After changing, I walked down the stairs. Everyone was seated in the lounge room on the couches. By now, it has become normal for me to sit between the brothers so that's just what I did. That was when I noticed the dreadful atmosphere. Everyone wore grim expressions and dad and Coralline were so deep in thought, they didn't even notice I was there. For some reason, Carson placed his hand on my thigh and Mason placed his arm around my shoulders. I couldn't put a name to the feeling even if I wanted, but it was a nice feeling. A comfortable stillness. I felt as if I finally had been where I truly belonged. I intertwined my fingers with Carson's and leaned my head on Mason's as if by instinct. That apparently drew our parents from their trans-like state.

¨Danny! Perfect timing!¨Exclaimed Coralline as she clapped her hands in front of her in excitement. ¨You see, your father and I decided to buy a new gaming console since there are 4 men in this family now, but we just couldn't decide on which. Mason and I are all for Xbox One, but James and Carson want a PlayStation 4. So you get the deciding vote!¨

I looked at dad whose eyes dared me to choose Xbox, I then looked at the two boys beside me and decided.

¨I vote for Nintendo Switch.¨ Choosing between Xbox and PlayStation would mean choosing between the brothers and parents. Which meant bad blood between family members, and we all know how that one ends. Dad and Coralline looked at me as if I had suddenly turned into Cerberus.

¨That isn't actually a bad idea.¨ Said Carson as he started stroking the back of my hand with his thumb. I could feel Mason nodding from where I had laid my head upon his naked shoulder.

¨I vote for the Switch as well.¨ Our parents looked at us from eldest to youngest, then each other, and at last nodded their heads as if they had come to an agreement.

¨The switch it is then!¨ Said dad as he jumped up from his spot on the sofa. ¨Let's go gang! It's adventure time!¨ Said our parents in perfect synch. Dad grabbed his car keys and ran outside as Coralline went to take her slippers from their bedroom. I should probably mention our attire.

Dad wore a Superman pajama, Coralline had a large Mickey Mouse night-gown, Mason was wearing only pants, Carson had blue flannel pants and a casual white t-shirt on and I wore an oversized Deadpool t-shirt with shorts beneath which you couldn't really see since the shirt reached around mid-thigh. All in all, we weren't exactly store appropriate, but that didn't seem to stop the eldest ones.

Mason and Carson sighed as the eldest of the brothers went upstairs to grab a shirt and the other one probably went to find his own slippers. Judging by their reactions, this definitely wasn't their first times doing something like this right before the stores closed.

I had just recovered from the loss of warmth, when I stood up and went in search of my own slippers as dad honked from the garage, indicating for us to hurry up. Just as I was about to climb the stairs, the brothers came down. Carson handed me some of what I assumed to be a pair of his slippers as Mason placed the jacket he wore earlier today, over my shoulders.

We climbed in the back seat and off we were in hunting of Nintendo Switch at what the dashboard stated was 22:53 o'clock. We'd be the luckiest people in the world if we were to find an open store at this hour.
