(Recap)
"I'll get it!" I yell, running to get the front door. I open it to reveal. . .
(Recap over)

"Hey..." Mello says, as soon as I open the door.

"Hey, come in." I say, pointing to my couch that Hannah is currently sitting on.

"Okay." He replies, sitting down awkwardly as he watches my siblings.

"So... who are they?" Mello asks, pointing to Joey and Johanna. (Johanna is pronounced like yo-hana. Btw. Just so you don't keep pronouncing it like Joe-Anna... lmao.)

"This is my little Brother, Joey." I pause and let it sink in. "And this is Johanna. It's pronounced Yo hana." I explain. Everyone assumes her name is pronounced Joe Anna, but it's not.

We all sit at the table and talk. I tell Marshmello what the deal is and he offers to stay and help.

"Are you sure you want to stay here and help? You don't have to..." I say, I hate to have people help me with everything.

"Yes, I'm very sure. Never been more sure in my life." He says, giving me a smile.

"Alright." I respond, going into the kitchen to see what I can scrounge up for dinner. I'm not that well off. I'm lucky I can even afford the house and bills, let alone keeping everything stocked with food. I guess I have to start consider I have two more mouths to feed. I'm used to munching on popcorn for the last week or so before payday. Sometimes it's too much and I just starve for a day or two before eating again. As I said, it's not the best, but it's better than what they had living with mom.

I make dinner and we eat and talk about plans for tomorrow. We watch a few movies and play a few video games. Once we were done with those we decide to watch one last movie and then they fall asleep halfway through the movie.

I pick up the trash from their candy and popcorn on the floor and Marshmello carries them to bed. Once I'm done we decide to finish the movie. We cuddle for a little bit and once the movie is over we head to bed.

The way tonight was........ it felt so.............






Right. I think and then turn off the lamp beside me and cuddle up to Mello.

Hey, hope you enjoyed the chapter. It isn't much, but this is the best I've got for this one. I've been trying to edit this chapter for well over a month, and I can't think of how to make it much better... I apologize for the sucky writing. I was 13 when I began this series.

Thank you, I love you, keep being you, and always treat people with kindness. (Including yourself).
