it wasn't everyday you got to see your brother. at least, not while you're a college student across the country and he's a major league baseball player.
so it's safe to say that aaron absolutely did not expect to see you on his door step on a random monday night.
"y/n?" aaron opened the door, and he let out a gasp once his eyes met yours.
"hey big bro." you smiled brightly even as he pulled you into a bone crushing hug.
"woah, look at you! you're so big and grown now." he said once he wrapped his arms around you.
"says the 7ft tree monster! people might think i'm your daughter." you joke
"yeah yeah, don't ruin this for me. i could tell you've been taking good care of yourself. it's been forever since i last saw you." aaron reminisced after he finally let go.
"two years isn't that long." you rolled your eyes playfully.
"far too long without seeing a sibling. like, you were just a snotty sophomore yesterday and now you're graduating this spring." he shook his head. "it's a little cold, come inside and i'll take your luggage. hope you don't mind though, 'cause the guys are here right now."
you only nodded in response, but you didn't comprehend what aaron said until you saw all the somewhat familiar faces in the living room.
"secret girl sam doesn't know about?" verdugo raised a brow, half joking, half confused.
"hah hah." he sarcastically laughed. "very funny. this is my baby sister, asshole."
"i'm not a baby, i'm literally 22." you rolled your eyes.
"how come judgey never mentioned he had such a young and beautiful sister?" giancarlo asked.
"chill, she's half your age." aaron warned, before he motioned for you to sit down. "go sit next to AV right there." he whispered.
you weren't sure who AV was, or what the initials stood for. but you recognized most of the guys except one, so you sat next to him. he smiled softly at you, before turning back to listen to the conversation.
"nah big g, you gotta save her for volpe! they're the same age anyway. and if he doesn't want baby judgey, save her for me." soto joked, to which everyone but you and volpe responded with laughter.
"so you're volpe?" you questioned, directed to the boy next to you.
"yes ma'am. but you could just call me anthony." he smiled once more, sticking his arm out for a handshake.
you shook his hand with a small grin. "well mannered and cute. that's a plus." you teased.
anthony's cheeks turned a light shade of pink, so he took a sip of his water to play it off.
"so really, why have we never heard of your sister before?" oswaldo questioned, nodding his head in your direction.
"she goes to ucla, and can only come up here so often. last time y/n visited we mainly did family stuff, so there was no time for me to have her meet you guys after the games." aaron informed his teammates as they looked over at you.
