Sunday, 7:30 am.

I dressed up for church (yeah we go to church, we are this Catholic family that obey all of God rules, but I can't stop cursing so every Sunday I have to confess my sins to my beloved father Cullen). I wear my mid length floral dress and put on my loafers, I braided my hair and put a thin layer of make up.

The church is not far away from our house. It only take about 15-20 minutes so we don't have to haul our ass off. The service started at 9 am and we arrived there at 8:50, 10 minutes earlier. I searched for my friends and found Kelly (we have a teen community there). We talked and wait for the other guys to come and started the teen service. The service last for one and a half hour while the adults last for two hours. After we're done socializing with other people, we went to a pizza shop within 2 or 3 blocks from here. We ordered 2 large cheese pizza and bring it home.

In the afternoon, i got a text from Elliot

"Hey can you come over? I had a bad dream last night and I don't think I can sleep tonight, pretty pleeaassweeee :3"
How can I say no to him??? I mean we've been close since junior high and I thought of him like my baby brother that I never had (unlike my big bro Aiden).

Fun fact #1 about Elliot :
Everytime he had a bad dream, he can't sleep at night and ever since we've been friends, he always ask me to stay with him. Cute right? He's like a small kid with a slender and a bit toned body who's afraid of the monster hiding in his wardrobe.

"I'll come later, 'round 3 or 4 so wait for me, don't go anywhere and you better have food in your house or else"

"Yeah I'm gonna order an Italian cuisine so we can talk all night long with a happy stomach and FYI I'm ordering our fav :*" and oh, um I don't know how to say it, my parents miss you, you're my sister after all ~xoxo"

"THANKKSSS YOU'RE THE BEST, tell them I miss them too and you're the best baby brother ( ^ω^ )"

Just so you know, Elliot's like super rich (but he don't show it off) and his parent is super nice, like one day they told me I am like "the daughter" they never had, and I am going to protect this status forever, even if I have to die for it, there shall be a bloody bloodbath for all thee who seek to dethrone me from my status, and for all thee who try to hurt my sweet little brother Elliot James Lee, thy should be ready for my wrath because I will seek revenge for all of you who plotted to see us suffer. I will see no difference, wether you're a man or a maiden, friends or foe. There will be no forgiveness for all ye who threatened our relationship, therefore, don't fuck with us.
(Okay I'm exaggerating too much)

I sat on my room, grab my sketchbook and started drawing. I finished the sketch about 10 minutes (I'm in the mood to draw). So consumed in my own drawing, I forgot I'm going to Elliot's house or I rather say mansion. I changed to my favorite black skinny jeans, striped long sleeve and a scarf. I go downstairs and ask my mom if she can drive me to Elliot's and she said yes. My mom's used to me staying over at Elliot's for days and she felt comfortable when I'm around him rather when I'm with Tory (she kinda don't like Tory, I don't know why though).

When I arrived there, I was greeted by Martha (their helper). She looked so happy to see me, is it already that long?. I kiss my mom goodbye and walk inside with Martha
"Miss Jesse! It's so good to see you again, I miss you so much" she hugged me.

"I miss you to Martha" I returned her hug, "Is it already that long? When is the last time I stay here?" we walked down the hall and turn right to the dining room.

"Hmm... About 1 month"

"Really???" Just when we're heading to Elliot's room, Mr. Lee stepped out of his office. He seemed shocked and please to see me. "Jesse" he pull me into a hug, so tight that my feet can't touch the ground and I can hardly breathe.
"Oh hey Mr. Lee, nice to meet you to" I managed to speak with the so little air I got in my lungs

He put me down, "come on, we haven't seen each other in 1 month and you're back being formal" he said with a big smile on his face.

"I'm sorry Lucas"

"You know we see you as our own child" he hold me in a side hug "Diane miss you so much, she'll be back around 10"

Suddenly someone scream "GROUP HUG!", Elliot throw himself to his father and grab me and Martha. If you're confused why have a group hug with a help, i got five words for you, SHE IS A FUCKING HUMAN, like anybody else. The Lee's may have a helper but they don't see them as a lowly human, they see them as a family. They don't judge anyone by their status, they judge them by their personality.

The hug lasted for years and we ended up laughing.
"Dad, Jesse gonna stay for the night" he informed his father while walking toward his room

"You can stay here as long as you want Jesse, you're welcome here anytime oh and your food will be here in 20 minutes"

"Thanks Lucas" "thanks dad" we say it at the same time and ran to his room.

"You told him???" I scoff "well, yes, what? You think I want to pay for your food?" He laughed and punch me in the arm.

"Ouch, of course I think you would buy it with your own money"

"Well it's too late now" he gave me this devilish face

"Elliot, no... No NOO" I started screaming and run as fast as I can "you I will get'cha, there's no need for you to run just surrender yourself"

"NEVER" our laugh echoed down the hall.

The doorknob is already within my reach before he caged me and open the door. He dropped himself to the floor, sit on me and start tickling me. I fight for my position, with my free hand I tried to tickle him but he grab it both with his left hand and tickle me with the other. After a long fight, I can free one hand and I jab my finger to his waist

"TIMBER!!!" evil laugh "just about time"

"I'm sorry, do-" I tickle him "it's to late peasant"

We laughed and tickle each other until we heard a knock and drop dead on the floor, catching our breath. Martha appear on the door "dinner's ready" she said with a smile

"Thanks Martha" we both blow a kiss for her, she put the 'dinner' in a table nearby and walk away.

We burst into laughter. Elliot crawl to grab the dinner, he unpacked it and give me my gnocchi (my sweet baby gnocchi, come to mama).

"Hey, I need to talk to you 'bout something" he said with a mouthful of gnocchi and a serious tone. I just want to eat my sweet baby gnocchi in peace.
"Hit me"
