The Silent Ones [EDITING]

Chapter 8

After three torturous hours, the plane finally landed. I stood up and stretched my back and my shoulders. "Are your parents going to pick us up or do we need to get a cab again?" Sophia asked.

"Actually, Kevin is going to pick us up, he should be here in about five minutes." I answered. We walked over to the area where you pick up your bags then we headed towards the pick up station.

Kevin pulled up in his Porsche 911 Turbo and honked the horn. "Kevin we were looking directly at you, you didn't need to honk the damn horn." I rolled my eyes. My patience was running thin. 

"Get in!" He shouted. "Your windows are down you don't need to shout." I said while putting the luggage in the back. 

"Ma'am I think you may have the wrong car, my brother doesn't know any girls." He chuckled. "Well, I guess you don't know your brother because I'm his girlfriend." Sophia retorted. He held his hands in surrender. "Okay lil lady, get in" He smirked.

I got in the back with Sophia and gave her a thankful smile for what she is doing for me. "So how long have you been dating my little brother?" Kevin asked. 

"July" She answered monotonically. "Wow that's a long time, so ten months?" He asked. "Yeah." She answered. She wasn't having much fun so I told her that she could go on her phone or something but she denied my offer. 

"Do you know how happy gramps will be that you have a girlfriend?" Kevin broke the silence. "Yep." I nodded my head.

The rest of the car ride was silent. We arrived at the house twenty minutes later. The house gets bigger each year and it truly amazes me. "OHHH YOU MUST BE SOPHIA!" My mom ran out from the door and embraced Sophia in a hug. "Yep," she chuckled, "that's me."

My mom held her shoulders and looked her in the eye. "Why are you interested in my son?" She asked. Are you fucking kidding me? Right in front of me?

"Well..." Sophia pondered, "he's kind and good looking"  I just smiled awkwardly and got the bags from the back. "You know I have another son right? have you met him? Well, of course you've met him," Mom rambled, "He sure is a handsome one isn't he?" She asked.

Sophia just laughed uncomfortably and mom took her inside the huge beach house. I walked in after them and brought the bags into the guest room. I slowly made my way back down to the family room after admiring the beautiful paintings on the walls.

"Sophia so have you and Trey..." Ella, my sister, wiggled her eyebrows up and down. Ella sure is something, she's just a year older than me and she's been the most supportive since I've dropped out of high school.

Sophia's face turned a bright red. "Oh uh, no."

"Yeah alright," Ella said, "I'm expecting a little Trey running around sooner or later." Everyone laughed but us. "Sophia can I have a word with you?" Kevin's ex, Cameron, asked. Sophia nodded her head and left the room with Cameron. They just broke up a week ago which surprised me.

You are probably wondering why Kevin's ex is here, I am too but I think I have a guess. Kevin and Cameron were dating for a few years but had to split up because of the arguments they had all the time.

They won't admit their love for each other anymore so they are just friends. I seriously thought Kevin got her pregnant but I guess she just put on some weight, which is gone... long gone. She's a health nut and it annoys me but hey, she's still funny. She would make a great mom.

They came back a few minutes later and Sophia looked like she's in deep thought. "What are you thinking about?" I asked. "Well Cameron is pulling everyone aside to tell everyone the schedule and so she told me what time bed time is so I asked her how many beds there were and she said one. What do we do?"
