Just Us 4

〰️24〰️

LET ME EXPLAIN! AT THE BOTTOM MESSAGE!!!

Also, Thomas' house is just the same one he lives in here. I don't really know what all of his house looks like, so Imma just make it up!

Whoa.

I mean not like a bad whoa, but whoa! It wasn't as fancy as Roman's and Logan's house but it was way better than our old house. No offense to that house. But seriously!

It looked two stories, so maybe there was a lot of room in there. That's all I can say, since I haven't seen the inside...

But for the outside, it looked so cool!

I jumped out of the car with Virgil following behind me. I immediately ran to the front door and tried opening it. I was too excited to see the inside!

Instead of running inside, I ran straight (he's not) into the door. I groaned as Thomas jogged up to my side and Virgil appeared behind me.

"I don't think you should try opening every door Patton. Especially if you don't know if they're locked or not," Thomas said as he pulled out his house keys and unlocked the door.
"I knew that," I said, rubbing my shoulder.

I was the first one inside. I literally pushed Thomas aside, apologized, then frantically looked around the house. Ok! Now just pretend we continued from where we left off!

So, as soon we walked in the kitchen was to our left, and it had actual counters and walls that separated it from everything else. A small dining table was placed in between the living room and kitchen. Oh! The living room was huge! Well, not super duper huge, but bigger than our old living room. The couch was big though. It was one of those couches that were shaped like an L. The TV was hiding in the corner, so enough room to make a pillow fort anytime I wanted.

Imagination starts here!

I ran up the stairs and looked to my right to see what I assumed Thomas' room. It had a huge bed and Disney and Steven Universe posters everywhere. I ran down the hallway, passing the bathroom and laundry closet, running into a smaller room with a queen sized bed in the corner and a small desk on the side.

I guess this was the guest bedroom room, our new room, since nothing was on the walls and no decoration was there.

I looked out of the window that was in between the desk and bed. Our view was pretty nice, pointed towards the front of the house and all.

"We can go shopping soon to spice this room up a bit," Thomas said from behind me.

I jumped at his sudden voice but sighed and turned around.

"That sounds good to me," I replied.
Thomas clicked his tongue, "I hope you guys don't mind sharing a room. I only have one spare."
I nodded as I saw Virgil appear in the doorway.
"That's fine. We use to share a room anyway."

I looked around the room and then back at Thomas.

"Since it's late and we don't have anything to do right now," I started, bouncing on my heels. "Can we make a pillow fort tonight?"
Thomas chuckled and shrugged, "Why not? I mean, we have to make this fun, right?"

I gasped and clapped my hands excitedly. I ran towards the door and grabbed Virgil's hand, dragging him with me.

"Ok! Ok! Ok! Virgil we've got to put up the blankets and chairs! We've got to beat Thomas before he changes the design in my head!"
"how am i suppose to help when i don't know your design?" Virgil asked.
"You're not suppose to know because you're not in my head! That would just be weird!," I retorted.

That's right, I know smart words!
~~~
I flopped down on my spot in the fort, which was basically a bunch of pillows piled on top of each other. Virgil and I agreed to sleep on the floor while Thomas got the couch. Since he was the only one on the couch, he got his own private fort. His was just made out of the couch cushions and more blankets.

Oh yea! Virgil and I also beat Thomas in building our fort before he built his own. I also made sure he knew that we won because as soon as we finished building our fort, my first thoughts were, 'We won! We won! We winnnn!' and those thoughts turned into words. Without me knowing.

It's like when you think, 'This toast looks delicious!' and then you actually say it. Well, I actually yelled it. I might've scared the rest of the life out of Virgil when I did so.

Anyways, we all agreed on doing the No Thumbs Challenge, it's an actual game, not just a challenge. Thomas opened up the game and gave Virgil and I a band that we both wrapped around our hand, trapping our thumbs.

"So, tomorrow we can go shopping for your guys room. I think I can sell that other bed in there and give you both your own beds. That way you guys can have your own areas," Thomas said as he put his hand through the band. "If you want, we can invite your friends from the hospital to go with us."
I gasped, "Yes! But I don't know about Logan. Roman only broke an arm, but Logan may or may not be able to go."

Thomas nodded and then an idea came to mind.

"Can we go get lunch or dinner when both or only Roman comes?"
Thomas nodded, "Only if they or he can."

(I say that like Roman's non-binary and Thomas doesn't know how to say it haha)

I nod and start trying to open a water bottle with my no-thumbed hands. I looked over to see Thomas trying to draw a dog on a piece of paper and Virgil trying to open a bag of chips.

None of this stuff was in the box, they were just what we found around the house.

It would be weird if the stuff was just in he box...

OK! Explanation! Turns out, I don't have time for Double Updates! I knew I said I would do one this week but that was before I realized that I have 3 days of dance and a whole week of chores. I also have other responsibilities and crap. So I'm sorry if you're mad that you didn't get a double update or whatever, IM SORRY!! And trust me, it doesn't get better once school starts. So I'm just gonna say, I won't be doing double updates like I thought I would be. But, I am trying to push myself to doing a double update if I miss two weeks. But anyways, once again I'm sorry and I hope this nice-ish chapter makes up for it.
-Pups Out!🐶
