He's a bad boy.
She's got an attitude.
What happens when they end up together for a year under the same roof?
He teases, she swears, they fight, they fall in love.
I woke up around nine, checked round the house and saw two sticky notes on the fridge, one from Melissa saying she had an all night function and one from Devonte saying he had gone out with friends. Guess it was just me and the twins for the day.
I made breakfast for the three of us so when the twins wake up it wouldn't be much of a hassle. Pancakes, bacon,sausage and scrambled eggs.I was practically drooling already and I think the smell is what brought the two cute half asleep and half awake zombies down the stairs and into the kitchen.
"morning Del", they both chimed.
"morning girls"
"where's mum" Carol asked
"she went out and so did Devonte"
"oh okay"
I give both of them a plate of food each and before i can even blink they've already gone through half of the plate.
"some people must be hungry"
"its............so..............deliciousssss" they drone in satisfaction.
I couldn't help but laugh at how adorable they were.
Breakfast over, we've all had a shower and now we are currently watching Despicable Me 3 in the living room on the sofa bed.

After the movie and a round of junk food the twins started getting curious. They asked me questions about my dad, what school I went to, my favourite things and so on.
"I love music, art, drawing, eating and purple" Christina listed.
"I love singing, drawing, baking and maroon" Carolina countered.
"I love music, reading, movies and purple too" I contributed
The questions and answers went on like that for a while before they started asking me things I didn't think seven year olds were supposed to know about yet.
"have you ever had a boyfriend Del?"
"yes just one"
"did you guys hold hands and kiss"
"well....umm....yeah,you could say that"
"did he try to get in your pants?!'
"uhhh.....what"
"Del, with all due respect, even though we look small and act ignorant and innocent, sometimes we are smarter than you think and know way more than we should. Never underestimate people like us. Its just a fact." They both said at the same time.
Okay, that actually scared the crap outta me. I didn't think these sweet little angels could be as devilish and horrific as they were displaying now.
"never mind that, we still love you like the older sister we never had but now do."
"if you're wondering how we know all these things, our brother has had quite the experience with girls"
"how so?"
"well, over the years whenever Dev comes home from a party, he usually brings drunk girls with make up that makes them look like clowns and practically no clothes"
"none of them ever like us and they always feel the need to tell us how good our brother is in bed even though we can clearly hear everything. Mum doesn't talk about it for some reason. She only says we'll understand when we're older"
"us being the curious individuals we are, decided to google everything his bimbos enlightened our minds with, which is why you have the beautiful yet corrupted angels standing before you at this point in time."
"that bad huh?"
"yep"
"we don't like it whenever he does things with those girls but we think its just because he hasn't met the right one. We hope he will or he already has........"
They exchange one of those looks that tell me they're doing that twin telepathy thing which scares me but also makes me feel jealous because now I wish I had a twin.
"but Dev's a wonderful person, he's smart, funny, kind and the best brother in the world. We love him so much and we couldn't ask for a better brother "
I don't know why but I felt so happy and warm inside when they talked about their older brother like that.
And that's when the front door opened and in walked none other than the devil himself.
He entered the living room to find three giggling females.
"hey guys, what's going on?"
We just keep on giggling and he starts to come closer to us as we all back away slowly. After a few more steps in the opposite direction, we run.
Chris runs towards the dining room but a seven year old can't really outrun a quarterback. Once he catches her he throws her over his shoulder then tickles her and drops her on the sofa bed. One out of three.
He goes after Carol, she runs into the foyer and is trying to hide in the ante-room, key word being trying. Once he catches her he does the same thing he did to Chris to her leaving her squealing and gasping for breath.
Once the girls had calmed down, they looked at each other with wide eyes and screamed my name "Del!"
"oh shit"
"And then there was one" he thought to himself
He searched everywhere downstairs before he finally found me in the kitchen. Now the only thing between us was the kitchen counter.
"mind telling me what was so funny that you guys couldn't help but run from me?"
"uhh...not really" I smile sweetly
"easy way or the hard way"
I didn't even have time to reply before he climbs over the island and traps me in between his body and the oven.
Yep, i'm so screwed
Trapped in his arms I couldn't help but stare into his twinkly brown chocolate eyes. He leaned down ever so closely to the bottom of my ear and nuzzled into the crook of my neck whispering "hard way it is"
For goodness sake I told myself, I needed to get a grip and give this guy a piece of my mind.
"you can get off me now" I retorted harsher than intended.
"someone's feisty" he countered with that annoyingly boyish smirk of his
"I have a name you know and in as much as you're enjoying cuddling me I'd rather prefer you gimme back my personal space....if its not too much to ask princess"
He actually looked taken aback but quickly regained his composure.
"I know you do lilah and if anyone here is desperate to get all over the other I can see it in your eyes"
"we'll see about that"
And with that he releases me and heads back to play with his sisters leaving me flustered and angry.
