Adelaide's Protector

Colton (5)

  Holy shit, this is it. I hope Addie can't hear my heart racing.  

     I stare deeply into her Hazel eyes waiting for her to say the words I have hoped and prayed to hear for years. I hope she can't feel how sweaty my hands are or how there is electricity shooting up my arm from where she has a gentle grip on my wrist. She opens her mouth to say something, come on baby say the words "Colt, I really..." Fuck yes she's actually going to say it. I prepare to pull her light pink lips to mine ready to give her all of my love that I have been holding in secret for so many years. 

"YO COLT"

GOD FUCKING DAMNIT

 I am going to kill whoever is interrupting us. I guess Addie felt the same way as I did because I heard her let out a little groan at our interruption.  I smiled a little bit at the sound reluctantly letting Addies hand go and feeling the sparks disappear as she lets go of my wrist. We both turned our heads to see a very drunk Caspian stumbling towards us.  Damn it Cas. 

 When Can finally reached me I felt him wrap his arms around my shoulders from the back, clasping his hands together in front of my throat. When Cas gets drunk he gets very clingy and starts spewing out his secrets to anyone he runs into. "Have you seeeeeeeeennnnnnn Adddddddssssss "hiccup* I think she's pissed because I ate the last of her cookie dough." Oh. Shit. He's a dead man.  One thing I have learned about Addie over the many years of us knowing each other is that you never ever touch her cookie dough. I made that mistake when we were kids. She grabbed her barbies hard plastic horse and threw it at my head, I ducked and ran away from her while she kept throwing any of her toys she could grab at me angrily. I smile gently at the memory ah, good times. 

 I let out a loud laugh putting my hands under Caspian's that were wrapped around my neck so he wouldn't choke me out. "Dude, how much did you drink?!" Caspian quickly jumped out from behind me landing in a jumping jack position "This FUCKING much!" He screamed whilst almost smacking Addie in the face. I went to reach out to Caspian before he gave his sister a concussion to try and move him but I guess Addie had enough of his shit because she smacked his arm out of her face. 

 "COLT! THERE'S A FUCKING GHOST OUT HERE!" 

Oh for fuc-

  Before I even knew what was happening Caspian jumped into my arms to get away from the "ghost" that was after him. I wasn't expecting him to jump into my arms so I half caught him and half dropped him onto the porch. I tried to keep us both stable and standing but it was too late, I lost my footing and we both fell straight onto the wood of the porch. "DUDE! Get your drunk fat ass off of me!" I try to push Caspian off of me but Cas is refusing to let go of me until the "ghost" is gone. "Shhhhhhhhh, we don't want the ghost to hear us. We're safer here together." I glare at my best friend hoping he sees how I am almost two seconds fro- What the fuck is he doing to my hair?!  I didn't realize he started petting my hair to reassure me and himself that we were better together. 

 I continued my death stare until I heard this loud booming laugh in front of us. It's Addie laughing her fucking ass off at the situation her twin brother has put us in. I couldn't help but watch this beautiful girl losing her absolute shit with tears rolling down her face. Seeing her laugh like that made this whole situation better. I would do anything to hear that laugh for the rest of my life. My stare was broken when I started to hear Cas's slight snore in my ear. Great, now he's asleep. It's going to be harder than expected to get him off me now. Addie finally stopped laughing and looked at me with a shit eating grin on her face. 

 "Addie, can you help me please?" I gave her the best puppy dog face I could make. I saw a glimmer in her eye and I thought I had won her over with my puppy dog look. "Awwwwwww, nice try puppy dog faces don't work on me. Try something else." Damn it. She crossed her arms to try and look tougher than she actually was. Don't look at her boobs, don't look at her boo-to late. Quickly shaking my lustful thoughts away I let a groan, "Addie! I can't fucking breathe your brother is heavy as shit." She did not budge. Not willing to give into her game that easily, I pushed Caspian as hard as could to try and get him off my chest but then I remembered, the longer this goes on the more time I can spend with Addie.  With that thought in mind I quickly dropped Caspian back onto my chest acting like I couldn't lift him without help even letting out a fake gasp simulating him knocking the wind out of me. 

 I look back at Addie noticing she did not move from her position at all arms still crossed over her chest. Maybe I shouldn't say anything and just stare at her bo- okay dude, calm down. "Fine! Addie if I buy you a tub of egg free chocolate cookie dough will you help me please?" I watched as her face lit up like a little kid on Christmas morning. Gotcha. I knew that would get her up and moving. She grabbed Cas's leg and started to pull to try and get him off of me. I knew she wouldn't be able to do it because he is much bigger than her but I wasn't about to stop her either knowing this was going to be hilarious to watch. She tried to pull harder only for her to lose her grip and fall straight onto her ass. 

 "Ow!" She quickly turned on her side to rub her ass and I started dying laughing. I knew it would be worth it to watch her try and move Cas. "Kiss my ass Colt! That fucking hurt." She stood up and started brushing the dirt off of her pants. Oh I'll kiss that ass sweetheart any time you want. "You can come over here and I'll kiss it better." I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and release a shit eating grin her direction letting her know that I was teasing her. Well, letting her think I was teasing her without giving my true thoughts away. 

 I watched as her cheeks turned a bright red as she was staring at me, watching her eyes roam my body up and down. Wanting to tease her more, "Are you done being a pervert, Addie? Because I would like to get up now." That wasn't true but I couldn't feel my ass anymore. Her face got even redder at my statement and she turned around to try and find something to lift her brother off of me. She grabbed a shovel that was leaning against the porch and brought it back towards us. 

  "Colt, what happened? Why am I on top of you? Ads why do you have a shovel?" Cas was now more aware of his surroundings but started rubbing at his right temple trying to ease his newly formed headache. I watched as Addie's hands started to tighten around the shovel and I realized that she remembered what he said about her cookie dough. I need to get out of here before she kills me to!  "I have a shovel because I'm going to bury your dumbass for eating my COOKIE DOUGH!" Fuck it, everyman for himself!  I quickly shoved Cas off of me jumping up and grabbing his arm to at least give him a chance of running away from her but after I got him on his feet he was on his own. "RUN!!!!!!" Cas and I quickly jumped over the banister and took off running through the front yard while trying to avoid Addie's shovel of death. 

 A lot of the people at the party knew who we were and how our family dynamic worked they knew Addie wouldn't actually hurt us. They all shook their heads with smiles on their faces or the people who weren't from our school gave genuine concerned looks wondering why no one is stopping the dark haired psychopath running after two guys with a shovel. I couldn't help but let a laugh out from all of the fun I am having. 

I hope I never forget this moment for the rest of my life.
