Age gap of two years because I make the rules. I Lowkey highkey wanna make this a full fic, feedback tho.

I groaned into the phone, both Shoyo and my Mom had agreed that babysitting two random kids would be a great way for me to not only obtain the money I needed for a recently released game, but also a great way for me to 'socialise'. The tally of how many times I had tried to back out of this was endless.

"Shoyo, I don't want to hang around gross kids for three hours."

"You'll be fine!" He reassured. "They're okay, I've met them before. They're older brother though?" He made a noise of approval.

"You're starting to sound like a BL character." My voice was monotone.

"A what?"

We bid our goodbyes, and he wished me luck.  

I awoke the next morning with a feeling of dread pitting in my stomach. I had planned on contemplating existence in my bed today, but life had other plans for me.

I plonked into my desk chair, logging into tumblr. I tied my hair back out of my face and crossed my legs, I began to hum songs from the Undertale soundtrack.

My phone vibrated.

Shoyo:
>kenma u wanna know about the brother?

You:
>not really

Shoyo:
>Too bad, he's rlly rlly tall, black hair, his hair is messy, like I don't think he knows how to brush.

>he's doing all the science stuff in college, he's 2 years older than you I think

>he has a nice face
>Natsu is calling me I gtg

He left before I could answer him. Their brother did kind of seem like the boy-next-door kinda guy, but then again. I'd never even met him.

I was babysitting his sisters, not him, so more than likely I wouldn't even meet him.

The day seemed to have passed far too quickly, because before I knew it, I was using Google Maps to navigate my way to a strangers house. My phone read 6:36, meaning I was already late. Eventually I had reached what seemed to be the house. I was greeted by a middle aged woman with dark messy hair. She told me the info I had to know for the girls. Bed, Homework etc.

She thanked me before pulling out of the drive way, she honked her horn in a friendly manner as the car disappeared into the dark.

I sighed and closed the door. I was immediately met by two girls, one about fourteen, and the other looked fairly young, no older than eleven.

"You look like a girl." The younger sister barred eyes into me. "Can I tie your hair up?" She continued.

The elder sister poked her in the cheek before telling her to get in her pajamas.

"Sorry." Is all she said before following after her sister.

It felt awkward, being in someone else's house. The height of everything was too tall for me, which wasn't surprising, considering the fact that it seemed like everyone in this family was taller than average. Or maybe that was just me?

I sat on the couch and took out my phone. I began scrolling through my Tumblr feed. After half an hour, both girls came to sit on the couch with me. The silence was bordering on comfortable and awkward. Five minutes had passed, and I decided that it was definitely awkward.

"Hey!" I heard the quieter of the two shout suddenly, I jumped in surprise.

"Hey!" they younger began to mock.
