Our little brother

Chapter 85

Nicholas POV:

Alright, step into my sewing office." I say, opening the door to the craft room. "Nicky this n-no office, this art room." Noah tells me and I laugh. "Well okay, yeah, it doesn't look like an office, but it does have my sewing machine and all my materials." I say pointing to my corner of the messy room. I look over at Noah, but he's still standing near the door, but looks extremely stressed now. "What's wrong? Don't you wanna come pick out a pattern for Olis pajamas?" I ask him. "S-so messy. Need clean." He sighs frowning. I think Reid was the last one in here so I'm assuming he's responsible for the mess. Noah sighs a bit heavier before starting to tidy up some of the construction paper on the floor. He literally is a tiny version of an old man.

"Noah we can clean another day, come make the pajamas with me." I say. "Hmmm, okay. P-promise can clean 'nother day?" He asks hopefully, I wish I was that excited to clean. "Yes, now come choose a pattern." I say. "H-have matching?" He asks me, pointing to his pajamas. "Uh, okay, yeah we can make Oli match yours, but I need your shirt." I say making a quick decision, I mean, how important is long sleeves, he can have short sleeve pajamas. He nods a little unsurely, and starts to take it off. "I'm going to cut a little bit of material from your sleeves so that you and Oli can match, then you can put it back on okay?" I explain better to make him feel more sure of what's going on. I successfully cut off an even amount on both sleeves, and get his shirt back on. "B-be back!" He gasps, rushing out of the room, but runs back in to grab Oli.

Noah's POV:

Nicky really cut off all my sleeves!! I didn't ask Hunter if we can cut them off! What if he cut too much? Or what if he needs my whole shirt!? Or what if Oli doesn't like this pattern, I never even asked him! I need to find Hunter because he'll know what to do. "Woah slow down, remember no running in the house." Hunter says when I bump into him. "Um, did Nick cut your sleeves off?" He asks me. "M'sorry! N-no ask you! Just cut cut c-cut! Noah ask for m-match with Oli! N-not know cut so much! Not ask Oli too! C-can ask Nicky to put back, no m-make pajamas for Oli no more!" I say explaining everything.

Oli has a loooonnnnggg neck, even with all the sleeves, it might not be enough for him, and I still need to wear my own pajamas, he can't have it all. "It's okay, Nicky knows how much to cut, he's really good at measuring. But you are not allowed to cut your clothes, or anything by yourself alright? If you're okay with shorter sleeves, then I think Oli can still get some nice pajamas, but if you want the sleeves back, we can ask Nick to sew it back, and we can pick one of the other patterns." He says, I knew he would know what to do! "C-can keep sleeve short please?" I ask, just to really make sure it's okay.

"Of course you goofball, now c'mon, Nick is probably wondering where you went." He says, and I bring him with me and Oli to the art room. "You ready now?" Nicky asks me, and I nod. "Alright let's set Oli up on the table and take his measurements." He says holding a string. Is he going to tie Oli up!? What are measurements!? What does any of this have to do with making Oli pajamas!? "C'mere. How about I tell you everything that Nicks doing while we watch okay?" Hunter says picking me up, I nod quickly because Hunter wouldn't let Nicky hurt Oli. "He's using a measuring tape to see how much material he needs to sew together. It's like a ruler, but wiggly so it can measure round instead of straight." Hunter tells me, that sounds right, Oli's arms and legs and neck are all round, and a ruler would break if Nicky tried to bend one around.

"See, now he knows how much he needs to cut, before he starts to sew it together. Let's let him cut everything while we choose a button okay?" He says and pulls out a bucket with so many buttons!!! "P-purple!! Purple button please!" I say picking out the small purple button, it's perfect for Oli. "Purple button it is then, you ready to see how all those pieces turn into pajamas?" He asks me and I nod. I don't know if they'll really turn into pajamas, it doesn't look like it, maybe Nicky doesn't know how to make pajamas... We should have asked Sebby, he's the smartest, and he loves puzzles, and all the pieces Nicky cut, looks like a puzzle.
