Lost

Brother to Brother

Patrick's Pov

I gave Sullivan some suggestions for getting a girl, which in this case is Stella. Stella is three years older than him, but I have a feeling that they will work out. Last night was truly amazing, everyone had fun, even though Darby was a bit insecure about his dance moves, Sienna helped him out. To be honest, last night was one of the best nights of my life.

Ellen and I are inseparable, which makes both of our families closer together. I mean, Sullivan already has a huge crush on Stella, which I believe will work out. I mean, even if you look at Ellen and I, I'm 40 and Ellen is 37, if it's true love, it will work out.

I know that I'm only three years old, but I already know that Stella is the love of my life. She looked breathtakingly beautiful last night. I was just staring at her in awe, but then I kissed her cheek, but she didn't freak out like I thought she would and I was glad for that. Anyways, Darby and I's birthday is coming up on February 1st, and I'm definitely inviting Stella. I will follow my daddy's steps into getting a girl, but I also want to follow his footsteps because he inspires me to become an actor. We have all of his movies and shows in our house, but my all time favorite movie from him is 'Can't buy me love.' He was only twenty one years old, he rised to fame at a very young age, that's why they called him the teenage heartthrob. My daddy walks into my room. "Sully, what are you thinking about?" He asks me. "I don't know, Stella, your steps to get a girl, Darby and I's birthday. But it's going to be so hard. I'm only three, well technically four in a week, but I'm too young for girls, even though I like Stella." He says sadly. "Who said that you're not old enough? Love can be at any age, anyways, what do you want for your birthday? I'll ask Darby after." I say. "I want the movie scream 3 because you're in that movie, I want a soccer ball, so that we can practice and I'll be ready for the soccer season, and I want a bike. But daddy, I want Stella to come to Darby and I's birthday party." He says. "Sounds good, I'll contact Ellen and ask her. I'll go ask Darby now." I say and walk out of his room.

I find Darby outside of our house. "Darby, what do you want for your birthday?" I ask. "Mini sticks, Goalie gloves for soccer. Nothing more. How's Sullivan? He seems a bit down." He asks. I think it's sweet that he's worried about his brother, but I don't want to tell him that Sullivan has a crush on Stella, even though Darby might already know.

"He's fine Darby." I say.

I may only be three, but I know when my brother isn't happy. Daddy told me that he's fine, but I'm not buying it, so I walk past daddy and run up to Sullivan and I's room. I open the door and there he was, sitting on his bed looking a bit sad. "Sully, what's wrong?" I ask him. I shut the door behind me for a little bit of privacy and sit down beside him. I wrap my arms around him and he looks at me. "Darby, can I tell you something, and promise that you won't tell anyone?" He asks. "Of course." I say. "I have a crush on Stella, but the sad thing is that I'll never be able to be with her, I'm too young." He says. "Sully, I knew that you were in love with Stella, even before you knew yourself. I saw it in your eyes, just like how daddy looks at Ellen, it's exactly the same way. I saw you kiss her. Now, if you really want Stella, you're going to have to fight for her." I say. "Daddy gave me some steps on how to get a girl, he said that girls like it when people are funny, and to just  be myself. But I want to impress her. Oh, and I also invited her to our birthday, I hope that's OK with you." He says. "It's fine Sully. If you're happy, I'm happy." I say and pat him on the back.

"Darby, what did you ask for, for your birthday? " Sullivan asks me. "Mini sticks and goalie gloves for soccer." I say. "Really? I asked for a soccer ball, the movie Scream 3 because daddy is in it, and a bike. But most of all, I want Stella." He says. "Sully, you're never going to let the Stella thing go are you?" I say. "Nope, probably not." He answers. "It's okay, you're going to get her someday. I know it."

As soon as I hear snoring from above me, I'm not surprised. I close my eyes and drift off to sleep.
