HER SISTER (18+) (GXG)

Calendars & Jokes

"A ten-year-old flirted with you?"

I couldn't help but laugh as I remained straddled over Mili's body while she laid in the large bed underneath me.

I had gotten dressed in one of her oversized t-shirts that I had packed away in my suitcase before we managed to settle in the large bed and catch up on each other's lives.

It had been at least a couple of hours by now, and yet no one had come looking for us.

But I think that's mostly due to the fact that everyone openly wanted us back together.

"Nothing's funny for real," Mili said as she stared up at me with a narrowed look.

I couldn't help but laugh again, "It's really not that deep—besides he knew I had a girl," I assured her, even if I could tell she wasn't being serious.

Mili only gave me a blank look, "If he sends you brownies—I'll be the one eating them, and I'll make you something else instead," she said.

I smiled shyly, "But what if they're good?" I whispered, easily earning a dramatic gasp from Mili.

A string of giggles fell from my lips when Mili managed to grab the nearest pillow and jokingly hit me with it.

"I'm kidding—really," I laughed as I dodged the pillow.

And as Mili dropped the pillow in her hands, I couldn't miss the way she laughed a few times to herself, "Good, because it feels odd to be jealous of a ten-year-old," she determined as her arms slid back around my waist.

I smiled slightly as I ran my hands up her arms, "I don't know, I kind of like you jealous," I murmured.

Mili raised a brow, "No you don't," she said, clearly amused by my statement.

I hummed, as I began playing with her loose curls, "I don't?" I repeated back to her.

Mili's lips twitched up slightly, "Not when I'm calling you to help dig a shallow grave," she determined, and I couldn't help the laugh that fell from my lips.

"You're too much," I determined as I laughed yet again.

Mili hummed, "And yet you handle me perfectly," she said as her hands slid away from my waist to the tops of my thighs.

I felt a smile twitch up onto my lips as I stared down at her perfect face, feeling as if my world finally felt whole again.

It's weird—everything felt fine before, I was decently happy.

But now... I felt like I was bursting with happiness—I could honestly run a few laps with how giddy I felt inside.

"So... about your friends," I managed to say, knowing that I wanted to face this topic head-on with her.

Mostly, because it had taken up space in my head since spring break, and I didn't exactly want to leave things unsaid moving forward.

Mili tilted her head, "About my friends?" she repeated back to me in question.

I felt my face grow warm, "Uh-I don't know, I just had never heard about them until recently from Ryder?" I whispered, suddenly realizing that I hadn't planned how to ask her about them.

Mili ran her hands up and down the tops of my thighs, "Yeah, they travel a lot," she said as she continued to stare up at me.

I hummed, "What are they like?" I whispered, clearly not knowing if she had a boundary with them or something.

A smile grew on Mili's face, "Well, Shanti is very bold. Her fashion pieces always catch everyone's attention, and she's naturally kind and bubbly—Akio is more quiet and reserved, but he's also the best person to go to for advice—and Jeremiah is more of the impulsive one in the group, he'll basically do anything to get the perfect photo," she explained.
