He wasn't sure if I heard him or not. He knocked on my window so I could roll it down. I opened my door--I couldn't open my window since my car was off. 

"Hey, you need some help?" Ethan asked again. 

Grayson stood behind him with a concerned look on his face, his earring dangling. The wind slightly played with their hair. So adorable.

I snapped out of my daze and came back to reality, adjusting my baseball cap. "Yeah. I just ran out of gas, my phone died, and I'm starving." 

The twins looked at each other and turned back to me. "Well, we can help with the hunger," Grayson said. 

***************

We all entered the Pizza Hut and sat at the table they had before they came outside. 

"We were just about to order," said Grayson.

"You guys really don't have to do this." I didn't want them spending money on me or sharing food. I knew they both had a big appetite. 

Ethan shook his head. "No, we're fine. What do you want?" 

I answered without hesitation. "My favorite..." 

Ethan looked at Grayson, confused. "What's your favorite?" they asked at the same time. 

I smiled at them. "Pineapple pizza." 

Ethan smacked his hand on the table and then pointed at me. He looked at Grayson and said "I like her!" My face grew hot. 

"What's your name by the way?" asked Grayson.

"Sheila, but I like to be called Shay." 

"Okay Shay," said Ethan. "Pineapple pizza is on the way." 

We ordered two large pizzas. While we waited, we just talked and laughed. I told them how big of a fan I was and how much I loved their channel. Whenever I mentioned how funny Ethan was, he smiled that perfect smile. I had to smile back.  

Then, the glorious pizzas arrived. We ate both of them... 

After we finished, I thanked them then started to head  to the door. But, then I remembered that my truck won't start.

I asked Ethan if I could use his phone to call RSA, and he obliged. When he handed me his phone, our fingers touched, just for a second. My heartbeat sped up. 

I made my call and handed back the phone. My truck was soon able to start again. Grayson and Ethan walked me to my truck and Ethan held open the door for me. 

Before I stepped into the truck, I gave Grayson a hug. Then came Ethan. When I hugged him, my heart fluttered. I think I held on for a second too long. 

I went in my truck and closed the door. I was about to drive off when I realized...I had nowhere to go. I didn't have a GPS to find my way back home. I only had one option... I opened the door again. 

"Hey. This is gonna sound weird since I barely know you guys, but...can I stay at your place? I can't really go home right now..." I held up my phone as a reminder that it was dead. I didn't need to worry about clothes since I always have extra in a bag under the driver's seat. 

The brothers looked at each other and shrugged. "Sure," Ethan said. "Just follow us."
