leaving life for love (Clay LaBrant)

chapter 3

i woke up to braedan shaking me. "what do you want braedan?" "Me and jersey want to play hide and go seek, but Kristina won't play with us."

"what time is it?" "4pm" "fine but you have to carry me outside." "deal"

we have been playing for a while and right now I'm in my next door neighbors' tree hiding for jersey. "I FOUND YOU!!" Jersey yells.

"ugh can you go get braedan I'm too tired to get down." "sure thing ill be right back."

"hey jack lets go ask our new neighbors if we can play with them,"i hear a boy say to his brother I guess.

"do you need help getting down?" I hear someone and look down and see a boy about my age, he looks familiar but I can't remember who he is.

"um yeah." "ok get on my shoulders and ill help you down." "are you sure I'm pretty heavy." "yea I'm sure." "ok."

I put my legs on his shoulders and grab his hands for support. Then he lifted me over his head and put me down.

"thanks." "no problem, can we play with you and your Sibblings?" "sure." "cool where are they?" "i have no idea my sister was suppose to go find my brother to help me get down but I guess she's still looking." " lets go find them".

its been 5 minutes and we still haven't found them, I'm kinda scared something happened to them. "JERSEY? BRAEDAN? WHERE ARE YOU ?"

"boo." "ah!!! I'm gonna kill both of you when we get home." "sorry it was all braedans fault." "my fault it was your idea."

they both looked behind me and saw our 2 neighbors. "who are the 2 Cuties behind ya twinie?" "our neighbors they want to play with us." "cool its nice to have atleast a couple of neighbors our age."

"hi I'm clay and this is my brother jack we have 2 older brothers ,but only one lives with us, then we have a little brother and sister." ah so that's who he is clay labrant omg I can't believe I didn't realize before.

"omg your clay labrant I love you!!" Jersey said while fangirling " sorry about my twin shes one of those crazy fans ,but I'm different I don't go crazy." "i can see," clay said smiling omg I love his smile.

4 hours later.......

we ended up going into my house and Watching Netflix. Jersey has clamed herself down finally, and we're all just sitting on the couch except for braedan he got tired so he went to his room.

I guess I dosed off because I woke up laying on clays lap, I surprisingly feel safe in his arms. I don't really trust many people, because almost everybody at my old school were backstabbers.

I sat up and realized Jersey and Jack were gone. "They went to your sisters room to talk I guess." "Jersey in a room with a guy just talking is not something that usually happens." "same with jack but with a girl of course."

"let's go see what their up to."

"ok." we quietly Walked up the stairs and walked over to Jerseys room. we looked inside and of course they were kissing.

"Jersey!!!! you are so lucky our parents took the younger ones to the park." "justine,"she whined "dont justine me you always do this to every guy you meet."

the guys were staring at eachother awkwardly. I grabbed clay and Jacks arms and walked them to their house.

"that was really awkward." clay said "i always do that when she does this, it bugs me that my own twin would do this, it makes me sick."

"im sorry I didn't mean for any of this to happen its my fault," jack said looking guilty

"its not your fault its her exboyfriends fault he treated her like crap so when ever theirs a guy that she thinks is cute she always kisses him to try to feel loved."

"thats so sad I hate when people treat others like their just a toy that you can just leave it when you get bored they make me sick."clay said angrily

"ill be the person to love her like she's the only thing that matters in this world if you let me." "if you break your promise I will never let you forget it." "ok I promise I will never hurt her."

"wow jack this is a new part of you I've never seen." "i know I've hurt other girls but I swear if I hurt her I will hate myself forever."

after our talk it was only 7:30 so I brought them both back over and sent jack to go talk with her.

"your such a great sister."clay said while we were watching Netflix again. "thanks."

" can I ask you Something, you'll probably think I'm stupid ,but do you believe in love at first sight?" " I don't think you're stupid and yes but I've never felt it before I met you."

"really I feel the same way." "like yea I loved my ex boyfriend kaleb but to me it just felt like 2 little kids dating, not really knowing what they were doing." "same with my ex ryan, she never really made me feel the way you make me feel."

after our conversation ended we watched pitch perfect the best movie ever. "so if someone were to ask you out how long would you want to wait to Ask you?"

"it depends on if we know eachother or just met?" " how long if you just met?" "atleast a week of getting to know eachother." "ok so we have to spend a whole week together getting to know eachother." " don't you have school?" "no we got out for summer last week." "oh ok."

we finished the movie ,and by that time he had to go home. "Jack time to go home!" clay yelled up the stairs. "ok I'm coming."

he ran down the stairs with jersey. we all gave eachother a hug and said goodbye.

after the boys left me and jersey had a huge conversation about the boys and how sweet they are. since we are really weird when it comes to dating we made pros and cons lists for the boys.

clay didn't really have any cons, neither did jack so we went to bed with the lists the way they were and decided to add to it while we got to know the boys better.
