-Alexis's P.O.V-

After I called Brandon, Aunt Sam smiled. "He's coming, right?" She asked. "Yes, and not in a sexual way." I said. Knowing Aunt Sam and my family they always make innocent things into inappropriate things. "I didn't even think of that. I'm glad I taught you something." She said with a smile. "Sometimes I wish you didn't." I said. She just laughed at me causing me to laugh with her. "Mom, Brandon's coming over soon." I said. "Why didn't you ask me?" She asked. "I told her to invite him, so get mad at me. I wanted to meet him." Aunt Sam said. "She still could have asked." Mom said. "But you said Asher and I could invite our boyfriend and girlfriend over." I said. "She got you there, Liv." Aunt Sam said with a laugh. "Sometimes I wonder how we stayed friends this while time." Mom said. "But I guess you're right, Sam." Mom added. "I was right for once!" Aunt Sam yelled. Aunt Sam then took off running through the house. "How did you stand her when you were younger?" I asked. "I was the weirder one out of the two of us, and this side of Aunt Sam I have never seen." Mom said.

Soon there was a knock on the door and Asher opened it. "Hey Brandon." Asher said. "Hey Asher." Brandon said. They both fist bumped and then I walked over. "Hey girlie." He said walking over to me. "Hi Brandon." I said hugging him. "Is there a reason I'm over here?" He asked. "My Aunt Sam wanted to meet you." I said. "Okay. She's the friend of your mother that acts like her sister, right?" He asked. "Yes." I said. "Okay." He said. "He's so cute!" I heard Aunt Sam yell. Next thing I knew she came running up to the both of us. "Aunt Sam, he is Brandon. Brandon, she is Aunt Sam." I said pointing at them. "Nice to meet you, Ma'am." Brandon said putting his hand out. "It's a pleasure. Don't call me Ma'am, I prefer Sam, and I hug." She said before hugging Brandon. "You picked a good-looking boy." Aunt Sam said winking at me. "Brandon, let's go to my room." I said. "Liv, Brandon and Alexis are going to up to Alexis' room!" Aunt Sam yelled. "Hold on!" Mom yelled.

Soon mom was with us too, and she smiled. "Hello Brandon." Mom said. "Hi Liv." Brandon said. "You call her mom Liv, but you don't call me Sam?" Aunt Sam asked. "Yes." Brandon said. "That's nice." Aunt Sam said. "I heard Brandon's here." Grandpa Paul said walking into the room. "Hello sir." Brandon said slightly scared. "Hello Brandon." Grandpa Paul said. "You're scared of him!" Aunt Sam yelled pointing at Brandon then to Grandpa Paul. "So, what?" Brandon asked. "Paul someone's finally scared of you." Aunt Sam said laughing. "It's about time." Grandpa Paul said. "What time would you like me to leave Olivia?" Brandon asked. "You can stay the night." Mom said. "Really?" He asked. "Yes. I can always call your mother and ask her to bring some things for you here." Mom said. "You would really do that?" Brandon asked. "Yes. I think Alexis really needs you." Mom said. "Are they sharing a room?" Grandpa Paul asked. "No. If him or Danielle stay over the stay in the guest bedrooms." Mom said. "Cool." Aunt Sam said. "Can we go upstairs now?" I asked. "Yes. Keep the door open, and you two should know the rules now." Mom said. "We do. Thanks again Liv." Brandon said. "No problem. Now go." She said.

We ran to my room and made it there quickly. "Sorry about Aunt Sam. She's a little weird." I said. "Your whole family is weird." He said. I looked down and then he lifted my chin up. "I didn't mean it in a bad way. My family is normal, and when I come here it seems more lively than my house. You can never say what will happen because anything can happen and I hope that happens with our family, if we stay together. Your family is also so accepting, but they must earn trust. I find how your family acts around really fun." He said hugging me. "I love you." I whispered. "I love you too." He whispered. I looked up at him in return he looked down at me. "Want to play video games or watch movies?" He asked. "Movies sound fine with me." I said. "We can use my Netflix but we can't chill." I said. "We can cuddle, but we can't take it any farther than that." He said. I started to laugh which caused him to laugh too. "Any choice of movie?" I asked. "Any scary movie." He said.

Soon we had just finished the second horror film when my mom came in. "Brandon, your mom just dropped your stuff off. She would also like to talk to the both of you." She said. "Okay." Brandon and I said together. "She's in the living room." Mom said walking out. We both followed her out and then we went to the living room.

"Hello mom." Brandon said walking up to his mom. "Hi Brandon." His mom, Jennifer, said hugging him. "Hi Jennifer." I said walking towards her. "Hello Ashley. How are you?" She asked. "Pretty good." I said. "How are you?" I asked. "Good. Thanks for asking." She said. She hugged me and then looked at the both of us. "Brandon, you will be staying here for a few days. I must go to work out of states for a little bit and your father wants to come with me. We decided to let you stay with Alexis and her family. Tomorrow after school, you will bring Alexis over and pack some clothes for the next four days." She said. "So, for the next four days, you will be staying in the guest room." My mom said. "Got it, Liv." Brandon said. "Thank you, Mrs. Fisher, for letting Brandon stay over." His mom said to my mom. "It's no big deal. He's over here enough to be considered a son to me." My mom said. "Well good night." Jennifer said before leaving.

"Thank you, mom!" I yelled hugging her. "No problem. Now go get ready for bed, the both of you." Mom said pointing upstairs. "Show Brandon the guest bathroom, and then go to yours. I will be making sure you two aren't in the same room tonight before I go to sleep and tomorrow morning when I wake up. I don't want grandchildren any time soon." Mom said. "Okay." I said.

I showed Brandon the guest bathroom and how to use the shower before going to mine to shower. I got out my pajamas before going to take my shower. I did everything very fast and then shaved my legs and armpits. Like you guys wanted to know that, major TMI. Soon I was heading back downstairs, and saw Brandon sitting on the couch. "Hey, what are you doing?" I asked. "Waiting for to come down and say good night." He said. "Aww. Good night." I said. He got up and hugged me before pecking my lips. "Your mom is watching us from somewhere." He said. "Really? You had to blow my cover?" My mom asked coming out of a hallway. "Well good night Liv." Brandon said. "Good night mom." I said walking over to hug her. "Goodnight you two." She said.

*******************Next Morning*******************

"Alexis, wake up." Mom said. "Can't I sleep longer?" I asked. "No. Now get ready for school. Brandon will be taking you to school. He will also be bringing you to his house and then back here." Mom said. "You really don't care he's staying over?" I asked. "No. He makes you really happy. I trust you two to not do anything bad, so that was the man factor that let him stay over." She said. "Well thank you." I said. "But if you were to get pregnant, you will still go to school. I will help you, but you can't leave the kid just because you're scared. I do know what it's like, and I could do it which means I believe you can do it too." She said. "You will be grounded though, and no more Brandon until you're old enough to buy your own house." She added. "You don't have to worry about me getting pregnant; I don't think I could handle school and a baby too." I said. "Good." She said. "What would you do if Asher got a girl pregnant?" I asked. "He's stuck with the kid and will be there for the girl the whole time. I don't care if they get into a fight; he got the girl pregnant he's got to deal with it." She said. I smiled at her knowing that if Asher got a girl pregnant or I became pregnant she wasn't going to let us abandon the baby. "You know you could give good advice." I said. "I don't think I could work with people that need help. I once needed help, and I still do need help." Mom said. "Why do you still need help?" I asked. "I still have very good days when I'm happy and love life, and then I can have days where all I want to do is die. I shouldn't be telling you this; you're only a teenager." She said. "Mom, if you have any bad days you can come to me. I maybe a teenager, but I will listen." I said. She hugged me and then let go. "I don't want you to have to deal with my drama." She said. "You're my mom, I don't care." I said. "Well I do." She said. "Now get ready for school." She said getting up and leaving my room.
