NINETEEN

IRIS MARA
Nick's speculating eyes were on all three of us seated around him. Both of his arms were crossed across his chest as he sucked his teeth.

"So, let me get this clear, what you two are telling me is that those hickies on Iris' neck, aren't at Brandon's fault but instead are at Zion's?"

Brandon and I nodded our heads vigorously while the dreadheaded boy seated next to us rolled his eyes.

The tall, lanky boy sat up swiftly in his chair. "How exactly is it my fault that those two decided to get a little freaky in the RV?"

"You drugged us!" I called out in our defense.

"Drugged or not, I can gurantee that we still would've had the same, exact outcome of this day.  Brandon has already seen your goodies! How is he supposed to resist that?" The boy retorts.

My eyebrows instantly furrow at his strange use of words. Goodies?

Brandon whose face completely contorted at those words then decided to speak up."Are you implying that I only take interest in Iris because I've seen her goodies? It's more than that and you know it, Kuwonu!"

"Wait, you have seen my little sister's goodies?" Nick speaks up with wide eyes.

Brandon held up his hands in surrender. "It was on accident, of course. I just sort of walked in on her naked. It wasn't like I took the clothes off of her myse-"

Nick quickly held up a hand to silence the boy. "Okay, well that's enough of that. I do not need that image in my head, alright?" He shakes his head while he rubs his temples.

He looks up from his lap to meet my eyes."Iris, I know you want your freedom to do things just as I want mine."

He clears his throat. "And I'm willing to allow you to do so. It sucks for me to know that my baby sister is now taking interest in this type of stuff. I guess thats just something I'll have to accept."

I nod my head while a small smile toyled on my lips. "Thank you, Nick."

"I am still your older brother though, who does genuinely care so much about you so unfortunately this still has to happen." 

I roll my eyes as I then knew what was coming as I watched Nick turn to Brandon.

I stood up before Nick could utter a word. "Oh god, I'm sorry for what you're about to hear, Brandon. I honestly don't want to go through it myself so I'm going to go find the other boys."

I press a quick kiss to Brandon's cheek before heading out of the room.

Almost immediately I found Edwin and Austin, both lounging on the sofas, betting eachother on who could fit the most marshmallows in their mouthes.

Edwin was the first to see me out of the two boys. He instantly waved me over to them. "Hey, mamas." He said as I sat down on the couch next to him.

"Hey, Ed." I respond with a smile.

Austin who had just now spit out his slobbery marshmallows into the trash bin, spoke up. "How'd it go in there, I? Are you like now banished from ever seeing Brandon again?"

I allowed my head to fall against Edwin's broad shoulder as I let out a yawn. "No. Nick's actually in their giving him the talk."

"I would not want to be in Brandon's position right now." Edwin remarks. "Nick is seriously the only prettymuch member that scares me."

He tilts his head to the side. "Well, actually, I think if I were someone else  that I'd be pretty intimdated myself too."

Austin snorts. "Oh please, Edwin. You are literally a little funsize, ball of fun." 

"I honestly second that." I say with a soft smile, despite Edwin's scoff.

"You can't say anything either, little Mara, you're short as shit too." Austin implies with a laugh.

I shook my head while biting back a grin.

"I don't know about you two but its getting late and I'm getting tired."I say while I got up my from my seated position, yet another yawn passing by my lips.
