Taming The Family

13. Crush

Sofia's P.O.V.

"Wait, wait, wait!" I said with a scoff. A smile was permanently glued to all of our lips as I continued. "So phones are something that everyone has and uses to make prank calls? For no reason?"

All three boys laughed along with me. Ethan was laying long ways on the red couch against the living room wall while Dylan sat on the arm of it.  Both me and Levi were sitting on the rug on the floor. He was leaning against the coffee table while I sat crisscross apple sauce.

"Yeah princess, that's exactly what it is." Dylan muttered, taking a drink of his soda. I smiled up at him and felt my cheeks light on fire. Not just the one with fire powers, both of them. Levi raised his finger in the air and quirked an eyebrow at our cousin. 

"What exactly is a 'Me-Me'?" Ethan and Dylan both exchanged a look like we were the dumbest people on the planet. Which on this planet we probably were. "Meme, and it's just a picture of someone doing something stupid paired with someone else's words." Ethan explained, running a hand through his blonde hair. 

Me and Levi both nodded in understanding. "How do you not know what a meme is? Where are you guys from?" Dylan asked with a chuckle. I exchanged a look with both Levi and Ethan. None of us knew whether to answer honestly or come up with a story. 

"Far....." My brother muttered, burying his nose in Ethan's phone. "Where is far?" Dylan questioned, scratching the nape of his neck. We both looked at Ethan for something because neither of us knew Earth's geography. "Texas....."

Dylan cracked a smile. "No way! I have an aunt who lives in Texas!" We all shared an awkward laugh and let our nerves fall away. 

"...... So what part of Texas?" My green eyes widened when his gaze fell on me. "It-It's a small town, you probably have never heard of it." I informed, thankful my father had given me the ability to think quick on my feet. 

Dylan laughed. "Try me." The room went silent as Ethan tried to think of something. "They're from..... Tezas!! Yeah, Tezas!" I rolled my eyes at our cousin. For being Captain America's son he sure did lie easily. Then again he was also Tori's son.

Dylan pulled out his phone in confusion. "That's weird, never heard of that state before." Levi held out a hand in Dylan's direction. "Don't bother looking it up on the inner webbing system, it wouldn't show up because it's so small." Ethan and I both nodded although I was sorry my brother didn't get the quick thinking ability.... Or the brain organ.

"Yeah they don't have Wifi or electronics, they don't even have cable." Ethan butted in. Dylan nodded and put his phone back in his pocket. I nodded but then I grew confused. "Wait, what is Wifi?"

"Oh you poor child." Dylan breathed before locking his dark eyes on mine. "Wifi is kind of like tiny particles of information traveling through the air and communicating with other machines." 

"So it's like magic?" Levi questioned, handing Ethan his phone back. Dylan shrugged and set his soda on the floor. "I guess." The sound of the door opening brought us out of our thoughts. 

"We're home!" A low but cheerful voice announced. "Hey dad!" Ethan called, sitting up straight. After my uncle Steve walked into the living room a woman followed him. She had long and curly red-brown hair and dazzling blue eyes. Her skin was fair and her uniform dark while her lips were pressed into a tight line. 

I leapt off the ground into her arms without a second thought. "Aunt T!!" Tori's face lit up as she wrapped her strong arms around my waist. "My favorite twin!!!" I smiled into her shoulder and enjoyed the feeling of home that she held.
