I walked downstairs after I woke up. I couldn't help but keep smiling after last night. I must have slept in again because I heard everyone already up.

It was the usual. I sat down at the table and Wyatt was already there. Mom was making breakfast, but dad wasn't there.

"Where's dad?" I asked.

Mom turned " He went to the store to get eggs and orange juice,"

" oh."

Wyatt wasn't looking at me. I didn't know what was possibly wrong.

So I decided to ask him, after hesitating for a few minutes. " What's wrong Wyatt?"

He didn't look up. " Nothing. Everything is perfectly fine."

I just decided to leave him alone. He would talk when he was ready.

I heard the phone ring in the other room. Mom went to go get it.

"You don't even have the courage to tell me the truth, "Wyatt snickered.

"What are you talking about?"

" You don't think I heard you leave last night? Our rooms are right beside each other you know."

I didn't say anything.

" Well where did you go? Did you have fun?" He still talked with anger in his voice.

I wasn't putting up with his crap. " I went out. And I did have fun. I only went down the road for a walk if you wanted to know. If you were so curious you could have came too."

I paused. " Why do you care anyway?"

" I don't!" He paused.

"What? Did you go by yourself? You wouldn't leave the house in the middle of the night if it were in emergency." He finished.

I paused. I didn't know if it would be worse or better to tell him who I was with. But I also didn't want to lie.

" I was with Jaeden. If it's so important to you."

" Oh," he obviously didn't care or thought I was with someone else. He trusts Jaeden more than anyone so I knew he couldn't be too mad.

"Yeah your making a big deal out of nothing." I finished.

"Well...are you two a thing now?" He mumbled.

" I don't know yet.. it was just a...walk" I managed to say. I definitely couldn't talk about the kiss. He was my brother.

I was about to head back upstairs. When I heard my mother talking in the other room. Wyatt and I both looked at each other. He nodded and we walked in the living room.

"Are you sure? Yeah I would be happy to have him over. It's no problem really. Saturday? Okay!" Mom finished talking and hung up the phone.

Wyatt mumbled. " What is it?"

" Finn is gonna have to stay over for the weekend. His parents are going on a trip. I said it was no problem."

"Perfect!" Wyatt said walking back to the kitchen.

" Perfect!" I mumbled sarcastically, copying Wyatt's actions.

I was upstairs in my room. I felt differently towards Wyatt after that argument. I knew he was probably still mad. I had to make it right again.

I left my room and went into his. I opened the door to see him sitting on his bed, by himself.

He looked up at me.

I stepped forward. " I'm sorry."

He looked at me wide eyed. " What are you sorry for?"

" For is arguing, and just everything I've ever done. I'm sorry."

He got up from where he was he came over and tightly hugged me. " You have nothing to be sorry for."

I smiled.

" I love you sis, and I really don't care what's going on between you and Jaeden. " he said into the hug.

I laughed. " I love you too Wyatt."
