[47] x's and o's (pt. 2)

You woke up unwillingly, and pulled the blankets even closer to you. A buzz on the bedside table alerted you to your phone going off, and you went to turn off whatever was trying to wake you up. When you brought the screen to your face, you saw that it was a text from Amy.

'Have fun at the reunion tonight! Make sure you send pictures of you two!'

Your friend's enthusiasm brought a smile to your face, and you rolled over to see that Ethan had disappeared. Sitting up, you saw that you had about an hour until you had to start getting ready for the reunion. When you left the guest room, you heard yells from down the hall. Walking towards your old bedroom, you quietly opened the door to see your brother and your boyfriend sitting on the bed playing video games together. Specifically, Super Smash Bros.

Leaning in the doorway, you watched the boys interact with an amused smile on your lips as your brother was clearly beating Ethan's character to a pulp.

"How are you so good at this?" Ethan groaned as the places were displayed across the screen.

"He plays this instead of doing his homework." You said, walking over to your boyfriend to ruffle up his blue hair.

The boys on the bed snapped their heads up to look at you, and your brother perked up. "Y/N, you should play with us!"

"She can take my controller, I'm done." Ethan handed it to you, scooting back on the bed to let you sit down in his place.

You accepted it, sitting next to your brother. "How many times did you lose, babe?"

"Ten times."

With a laugh, you chose your character, Rosalina & Luma as your brother chose Kirby. "Y/N, that character sucks! I'm gonna beat you."

"Sure, little man." You teased him as the countdown started.

Flitting your fingers over to buttons on your controller, you were slowly but surely beating down Joey's character. Finally, you had won with two lives left and Joey was behind you in second place.

"How are you so good at this?" Joey fell back on his bed.

"We have tournaments at the office frequently." You explained, and Ethan rested his head against your shoulder.

"Then why is Ethan so bad at them?"

Ethan replied indignantly, "Hey!"

"Ethan opts out of them almost every time."

Joey looked confused at your boyfriend. "Why?"

The blue-haired boy shrugged, wrapping his arms around your waist and pulling you closer to him. "So I can do this."

"Oh gross, heteros." Your brother wrinkled his nose. "Could you not do that on my bed?"

You laughed at his antics, and rolled your eyes when he called you hetero. "So how is Kyle?"

Joey's eyes lit up when you mentioned his boyfriend, and he immediately started rambling on and on about him. You smiled at how happy your brother was with him, and frowned when he said that Kyle's parents wouldn't approve of him having a boyfriend.

"I'll fight them." You stated, and both your brother and Ethan laughed.

"Thanks Y/N, but I don't want you getting arrested." Joey smiled, and went back to talking about homecoming, where Kyle went with his lesbian friend as his beard, and Joey went with her girlfriend so they could all get by the disapproving parents.

You could feel your heart being warmed by your brother's kind heart. "You make me so proud, little man."

He smiled, abashed by your words. "Thanks, Y/N."
