After Nathan had shut the door, I walked a bit further into the living room. There, I turned around to confront him about how bossy his tone was just a few minutes ago. "What made you think that you could talk to me like that?"
"Talk to you like what?"
" 'Get in the house', like that!" I mock, and started to take off my jacket, because I could feel things getting heated. "You're just my brother Nathan."
"Well when you call me 'daddy' in your sleep it's pretty hard not to think I'm such." He finalized, and walked off without even looking back.

At around 1am, I received a text message. Given the fact that I was still up anyway, I wasn't annoyed at receiving one at such an hour.
Eli : Peri, you up?
Of course it was Eli, the boy who hadleft my house roughly 11 hours ago.
Me : You caught me just in time
Eli : Great
Me : Lol, sorry about Nathan, he's quite annoying at times
Eli : He's just being a brother
Me : Yeah IK
Me : What made you message me? Did you miss me or something
Eli : As a matter of fact I did
Me : I was totally joking
Eli : I wasn't
Me : Mmmmh ....
Eli : You know that thing that we did today?
Eli : Or well, yesterday
Me : Going out for lunch?
Eli : After that
Me : Driving me home?
Eli : After .....
Me : The kiss?
Eli : Let's do that again sometime
As much as I didn't want to admit it, the smile that the message put on my face was huge.
