Dream Smashers: Book 1

3.Home

I was awakened by a knock coming from the front door yet again and I was well aware if who it might be.

"Im.....*yawn*... coming" I said as I made my way down the stairs trying not to fall over

I unlocked the front door and was greeted by the same faces as last night

"Hi there" Alex said "hope we didn't disturb you"

"Well I was in the middle of a good dream but, no you didn't disturb us in fact we're still asleep except for me as you can see" I said trying my best to not sound rude

"Well can we come in?" Tyler asked

"Sure why not"

I opened the door further so they can come in. Alex was wearing short denim shorts with a striped t-shirt and Tyler had on a blue tanktop with blue jeans.

"Nice place you have here so your Mom and Dad aren't awake yet" Alex asked with a smile

I just stared at her trying me best not to make things start off bad.

"Did I say something wrong?" She asked with slight concern

"No it's just ....... like I told you yesterday that I came with my brothers and sister.........that's all that's left of my family" I explained as shock came over her face

"Oh my god I'm so sorry I didn't know I'm so so sorry" Alex said feeling bad

"No its not your fault you didn't know don't feel bad"

I tried calming her down but she had already felt major guilt for what she had said

"Hey Alex relax he said it's okay , don't beat yourself up for it, you made a mistake about something you didnt know, so just say a simple sorry and relaxand"Tyler told her "sorry about that Greg just know she's really sorry about that comment" he told me

"Yeah not it's fine she didn't know thanks for-" as I looked at his face I saw that he had the same exact ocean blues eyes like that land in my dreams same hair, but slight differences the man in my dreams seemed less built and healthy.

"Greg?"

"Oh sorry I didn't mean to zone out" I told him

"She's relaxed already .........but she ain't my girlfriend just to clear up " Tyler told me confidently and winking at me

"Oh okay well thanks for letting me know" I told him hiding my smile

"Gregggggggg" the twins yelled

"Hey what's up" I said as I walked over to their room

"Make us food we're hungry" they said as they rubbed their tummies

"I swear you guys act the same more and more each day" I said as I went to the kitchen

"What's going on Greg" Tyler asked

"My little brother and sister are hungry so I'm making them breakfast" I said as I looked for food to make "dam there is barely any food I need to restock" I sighed

Went back to my room to get dressed in a jeans and a navy blue T-shirt. "Gonna have to wait guys need to go get some groceries stay here ill be back in a bit"

"Want me to tag along Greg?" Tyler asked

"You don't have to, it's fine"

"No i insist who knows how much you'll get plus wouldn't you like some company?" He said with a smirk

"Yeah I guess I would....... Alright then let's go" I told him as I walked outside to my car"hey keep the twins company will ya" she nodded as I started the car and took off with Tyler tagging along

"So Greg have you see anyone you're interested in" Tyler asked as he passed me a box of pasta

"Haven't dated since my last bad break up" I told him as I made sure I have what I'm In need of.

"Oh I didn't know I'm sorry " Tyler said sincere

"It's fine" I told him getting a box of cereal

"Well I hope someone can make you feel better then" he said with a big smile

"Can you pass me that jar of marinara sauce" I said pointing at the isle

"Ooh alright" he said taking off

I walked a little further picking up more groceries on the way

"This one? " he said handing me the jar "Yeah get another please" I said checking it off my list "luckily for you I thought ahead"he told me as he pulled out another one

I smiled a bit a and placed it in the cart
"You really are a quirky one, aren't ya" I asked as i folded my list and headed for checkout

"Well your cute after all" he said which got my attention " and well because I've only met one other guy but he was an asshole to me and i just regretted it but you aren't Like him, you care about your family allot, although you're silent and don't talk much I can tell you are a nice person" he finished with

I looked at him and have him a smile
"Thanks"

"Plus you have a nice ass so that's a bonus" he said biting his tongue soflty and winking

I just stood there a blushed. "Uhh help Me place the groceries on the convierbelt" he nodded as I tried my best to hide my blush

We arrived back at my cabin and we began taking out the groceries to put in the fridge and cabnit "Thanks for the help Tyler"I told him as I pulled stuff out of the bag

"Your are very welcome Mr.Greg" he said with a big smile

"Hey so like do you-" I was about to ask before my phone started ringing "Oh it's David" I answered the phone.

"Hey Greg"

"What's up" I told him "Well I'm on my way my boss told me I can leave early and don't need to worry about returning next week I've done such a good job I've even gotten a promotion" he said happy

"That's good to hear how far are you from the cabin" I asked

"About 3 hours" he told me "ill be there by 2 the latest"

"That's good to hear" I said smiling "love ya bro"

"Dammit why do you make things sound emotion" he said laughing" I love you too Greg" and he hanged up

"Who was that" Tyler asked as he finished putting the rest of the groceries away

"Oh my older brother, he's on his way up to come spend summer with us here" I said smiling big " been a while since all five of us have been together it means allot having him come" I said

"Been through allot haven't ya" Tyler said reading my emotions

"Yeah after we lost our parents and Grandma , I took charge because David was busy getting his life together so I was next to take responsibility so I had to move my younger siblings up with me in Commerence so they can be close by because the three hour drive would have been too much for me" . I said as my smile faded a bit "they lost a good amount of friends and me and Miguel gave up our summers so we can work to make money for the four of us.........i lost most of my friends to the point were it was me and my 2 best friends .....luckily they stayed with my till end"

Tyler just walked up and hugged me "You did a good job taking care of your family and don't every regret it"

I was shocked but it felt good and a smile came over my face
