Friends with the Dolan Twins

15 Minutes

"Hello, order for Cristina?" The guy from Pizza Hut said. He wore his uniform, a blue shirt with his name on it and the place's logo and khakis. There was flour on his pants and his face looked tired.
"Thanks," I said giving him the money.
"I'll be back with the change."

I closed the door and took the pizza upstairs quickly.
"Where are you going?" Katie asked.
"He went to get the change and I left the chips and the dip downstairs," I said as I closed the door behind me.
I heard the T.V. And made my way downstairs.
I heard a knock and went to get it.

"Ethan?"
He stood in the doorway wearing the same outfit he wore at the show, jeans, his A4U jacket and a shirt underneath with purple vans.
"Hey," he said giving me a small smile.
I looked behind him and Grayson was jogging towards us wearing the same thing, except he wore black ripped jeans.
"Hey, uh here's your change," he said giving me a five dollar bill.
"Thanks," I murmured.
We stayed in silence for what felt like forever.
"We're sorry Cristina," Grayson said his face serious.

I had cooled off but I still was a little mad.
"We'd said no secrets," I said.
"We know. We were gonna tell you but we wanted to choose an appropriate time," Ethan said as he leaned against the door frame.
"Yeah we didn't want you to freak out," Grayson added, his hands in his pockets.
"I really can't talk about this right now, my friends are upstairs," I said looking behind me.
Ethan shifted and stood straight, he looked behind me as if he were looking for someone.
"Shouldn't we just tell them?" He asked.
Grayson elbowed his arm. "Dude." He murmured.

I sighed. I would have to tell them eventually.
"Hold on," I said and closed the door.
I ran upstairs and opened the door. They were on my bed watching a movie and eating pizza.
"Guys, Kari called, she's spending the night at Hiba's and she needs clothes," I said quickly. Man was I thankful for being a good liar.
"Oh," they said.
"Yeah, I'll be back in-"
"What're you talking about? We'll come with you!" Lexie said pausing the movie.
"No!" Crap, too loud. "I mean, no thanks, I just need to take her some stuff whatever. Anyway- So I gotta- bye," I said as I closed the door.

I stood outside and heard whispers then the movie playing again.
I hadn't noticed I was holding my breath and quickly let it go. I grabbed a hoodie from Kari's room and made my way downstairs. I opened the door the twins were right there.
"You have fifteen minutes. Only fifteen minutes to explain everything."
