It Just Happened

Family Time.

Now we were all having dinner and Trystan sat opposite me while mom opposite Grace, Dad opposite Jordan and james beside me. Today the twins were not home and before I forget, my friends were supposed to be here for our sleepover.

"Mom, Dad" and that's when all eyes were on me, I swallowed my food and spoke "er, remember that sleepover I was talking about?Well its kind of today."

"Of course honey" my dad gave me a warm smile while mom took a while to answer.

"Sure, but on one condition." I frowned at her words, conditions were bad, very bad- "Trystan will be invited to this sleepover of yours" my mom said smiling and Trystan then giving me the be nice ana look.

"Oh dear that sounds wonderful, what do you think trystan?" Grace said as she put her hand on her son's shoulder.

"But I have a movie night with the guys tonight" Trystan said with an irritated look.

"Well then, I guess you won't be having a sleepover Ana" mom said and I almost choked on my juice.

"What? Dad!" I looked at my dad for support but he shrugged knowinbest not to argue with mom.

"Okay.." I was about to take my phone out to text my friends when trystan spoke.

"I guess my friends wouldn't mind if I hung out here for one night" is he being serious? Why did he just do that? I mean, really? I thought he was the schools new bad boy? Gawsh what am I missing?. I smiled at trystan and at my mom.

"Can I join you guys?" James said beside me.

"Sure buddy" I gave him a peck on the cheek.

"So then, Trystan you better look after these adorable children" Grace said and I frowned, like hellooo, I'm 18 and I'm pretty sure I can handle myself and my brother, plus I have 9 friends coming over. What could go wrong?

"Okay, honey we have to go, business meeting tomorrow morning remember ?" Jordan said to Grace.

"Goodbye Grace, Jordan" I said waving off. With Trystan beside me obviously texting his friends that he wasn't going to make it to their movie night. Maybe. I closed the door and headed towards the couch in the living room with busy Trystan beside me. While my parents left us to go pack for their business trip and james followed them.

"So when are your friends coming?" Trystan looked up from his phone and I felt my cheeks heat up again."err you do know your face looks like a tomato right now... right?" He said grinning.

"Oh um, they should be here by 5pm" I said looking at the huge wall clock above the fireplace it was 4:57pm.

"Cool, do you mind if I use the bathroom?" He got up and stared down at me, his looking at me, oh geezz. "Ana?"

"Su sure just go straight down the hall there's a bathroom beside the gym room" I said pointing to the hallway but he kept staring at me. "Or maybe you could just follow me". I stood up and his eyes roamed my body before looking straight at me and that's when I remembered I was wearing my usual home clothes, argh. We finally broke our gaze when the door opened. Malina.

"Co! " she saw me and ran to give me a hug and that's when I noticed Trystan had gone to the bathroom. " Co? I'm right here. Are you expecting someone else? Because you look like you've just seen a ghost girl" she said holding my face in between her hands.

"Oh, Co um yeah we have a new member joining us tonig-" but before I could introduce trystan my parents came into view with their traveling bags.

"Honey we have to leave now, will you be okay? Make sure to call us if anything and I mean anything goes wrong or you guys need something" mom and dad gave me, james and Malina hugs and walked to the waiting Taylor outside. I'm used to their traveling I guess, that's why I don't cry or feel left out. Besides, my house will be packed tonight.

"Co, who is this new-" when mom and dad disappeared from view and Malina turned to me but before I could answer Trystan walked in.

"Trystan Riordan" he said extending a hand to Malina. That's when I got a text from Ella.

Ella: hey Ana we (Melissa, Deyna, Junior and Tim) will sort of be late because we're still in the supermarket getting snacks for everyone. Anything you want in particular?

Me: okay sure and yes, don't forget my chocolate and cheese balls :-* thank you.

Ella: no worries. XO see you soon.

Me: :-)

I quickly put my phone away and look up to see Malina and Trystan staring at me. " um, guys?" I said looking nervous and they both laughed.

"Just messing with you Co" Malina nudged my shoulders and Trystan laughed walking away with james.

"HA HA HA you two wanna be funny now?" I said rolling my eyes at Malina."oh I think Alison and Miley aren't coming" I said looking down at my phone as I got a message fro Ali saying she's got a date and Miley saying she's at a family function.

"Oh, well their loss" Malina said waving her hand.

"So here's the thing, since we had dinner and I didn't have time to set up the living room for our sleepover I was thinking we could all crash my parents suite beside the pool area" I said gesturing towards my parents suite.

"Great" Malina said grinning.

"I'm fine with anything" Trystan said not taking his eyes off the screen, he was playing tekken with james.

"Okay then, let's go and wait for the rest of the guys in the suite, and james come on we have to get you packed for your sleepover with Thomas unless you wana stay back with me and my friends?" I said walking towards my baby brother who still had his eyes fixed on the screen.

"Can Trystan play one more game with me ? Just one more " james said pouting.

"Fine but make It quick" I kissed his forehead and saw Trystan glancing at me with a smug on his face. Does he not know his making me blush every minute he gives me a look ? Heartless hottie. I look away before he could comment. Or so I thought.

"Nice face Ana" Trystan comments before looking back at the screen and I walk to the washroom telling Malina I needed to pee, which was so lame because she followed me and I knew we were going to have a girl talk.
