I toss my phone charger into my suitcase. I ran frantically around my room trying to find my phone. I heard a chirp and I dug through a mountain of dirty clothes and find my phone. "Hey, it's Lisa! I'm going to pick you up at LAX in one hour ok?" I responded back with "Okay thank you so much!" "Anytime sweetheart." I toss my phone onto my bed and I zip up my suitcase. I check my phone and it's 1:00 am. "Not too bad." I say out loud. I grab the handle for the suitcase, pull it up and grab my phone. I dig through my pockets to find my key. I turn around and heard a faint click. I put the key in my pocket and headed on out.
I was at LAX now and I got a text from Lisa. "Hey, I'm at the gate are you ready?" "Yes! I'm super excited!" I responded back quickly. "Okay come to the gate ok?" "Okay" I texted. I got to the gate and gave Lisa a hug. "Hey Paige!" "Hi, how are you?" "I'm good! How are you?" "Excited and nervous." I said fidgeting with my fingers. "Oh I bet! Let's go to New Jersey huh?" "Yeah!" I said. Yes, of course my stomach was tied in a knot because I get to have a new family! We boarded the plane and Lisa broke the silence by saying," Here, I have some tips for you." "Okay, what are they?" I said with a confused look on my face. "I have 3 kids. I have Cameron, she's the oldest. She's 19. Then I have the twins, Ethan and Grayson. Ethan is older than Grayson by 20 minutes. They're hard to tell apart when you see them, but Ethan has the freckle on his cheek and Grayson has one on his chin." She said. "Oh! Also, they're 17 years old." I thought to myself,"Two teenage boys in a house with me?! Oh no." I snapped back into a daze and said,"Thank you." Lisa said, "No problem."
We landed in New Jersey and we walked to her house. I read the mailbox and it said, DOLAN. I got to the door and smoothed out my shirt with my hands. She opened the door and said,"Boys! I'm home!!" I heard feet pounding upstairs and getting louder and louder. Two boys ran down the stairs and said," Did you get the batter?" In unison. "Yes, I got the pancake batter." She said while rolling her eyes and letting out a smile. They boys both reached into the bag and she threw her hand out in front of the bags that say MEIJER. They both groan. "Boys, I want you to meet Paige. She will be staying with us for a while." I look at them and they are- wow. I snapped back into reality and said,"H-Hi." "Hi!" The one with the freckle on his cheek said. "I'm Ethan. The cuter twin." He said with a wink. "Hey, I'm Grayson. " They both had perfectly chiseled jaw lines, perfect brown eyes, and deep voices. They were perfect. "Hey boys" Lisa said breaking the silence "why don't you show paige her room?" Ethan said," I'll do it." "Okay thank you Ethan. Grayson, go carry her luggage. "No, I'll do that too." A deep voice said. It was Ethan. He was wearing a dark green tank top out lined with white. He picked up the suitcase and his muscles basically bumped into me because they were huge. Oh my gosh, he is perfect.
We walked up stairs and took a left. "Here this is your room." He put the suitcase down and opened the door. "Wow.." was all I could say. The room was painted white, with a desk underneath a giant window. The bed was to my right when I walked in. There was a walk in closet and a wall with a bunch of room on it to add paintings, pictures, and other stuff. "If you need anything, I'm across the hall and Grayson's is the room right beside yours." "Thank you." "Anytime." I can't get into a relationship with Ethan. He's my basically my roommate! I unpacked my stuff and put it where it was supposed to be.
I woke up by the smell of some delicious food. After 5 minutes of contemplating if I should get up, I did. I sat down by the beautifully lit vanity and I did my hair in a ponytail. I got up and looked through my closet. I put on a pair of skinny jeans and a gray shirt. I went to get something to eat and I seen a chiseled back standing at the counter. "Uh." I said with my mouth open. "Oh hey paige. Want anything to eat?" A husky voice said. "Sure." I said. "Heads up!" Grayson yelled from behind me I turn around and looked at him while he threw an empty water bottle at his twin brother. "I'm going to go to the skatepark ok? You comin'?" He asked Ethan. "No thanks, I'll stay here with Paige." "Okay suit yourself." He said while jogging out the door and slamming it behind him. Ethan made us blueberry pancakes and they were to die for.
After we cleaned up the dinner mess, I reached for the tv remote on the couch downstairs. Ethan must've been doing that too because our hands intertwined together. "Uh... sorry Ethan." I said shocked. "It's okay." We we're both blushing. We had no words. "I'll be right back." I said breaking the silence. After a couple minutes later I found Ethan on the couch with his left arm on the top of it resting it and his right hand clicking the remote. I had a bunch of pillows and blanket in my arms and I threw them at him. "Hey!" He said. I was laughing and trying not to fall over for laughing. He got up and grabbed the biggest blanket and threw it around me and grabbed me and put me on the couch. "So what are we watchin'?" I poked my head out of the blanket. "21 jump street." He said while he was in the same position as before but with a blanket covering him. I sat
by his left and curled up with the blanket. We started watching the movie and I drifted asleep on his shoulder. "Hey paige?" He said cautiously. "Goodnight. Sweet dreams." He said while kissing my forehead.
