Chapter 2: Home is where the heart is

I wake up to the echoing sound of my alarm, so like i do everyday i aimlessly throw my arm around until i finally pick it up and launch it at the wall opposite me where multiple dents have already been made. This not only wakes Dylan up but it makes the dreadful noise stop.

 A few seconds later my door gets opened by a groaning, mumbling sleep deprived zombie also known as my twin brother
 "It's six in the morning!" he cries out, waving his hands around in frustration
"awww im sorry did i wake you up from your beauty sleep princess?" i say pointing slightly
"yes and i was having an amazing dream" he replies, smiling like a middle aged creep
  "save it i dont wanna hear another word about Lily Marsh and your weird obsession with her" i fire back lying back down on my bed
  "im not ob.." i abruptly cut him off by throwing one of the nearby my pillows at him, he quickly throws it back and flees sharply out the room.

I spring up from my bed fumbling around trying to get the duvet off me before i go flying down the staircase after him. I begin to pick up a bit of speed and as i go around a corner i body slam straight into payton, sending us both flying onto the soft carpet.

I hear Payton get up but i stay lying on the ground, too tired to really function                                                                                                           "Molls? You okay" i can't help myself so I start laughing at the level of concern in his voice
"im fine pay you dont have to worry" i say while groaning as i stand up with slight assistance from him.

As we begin walking I catch Payton looking me up and down, he always does it, but doesn't bother me cause we've been best friends practically since since birth, me, payton and dylan are the same age but we all kind of met at different stages in our life. I was the once playing with him in the play houses in kindergarten while dylan was kicking around a football but once we moved to high school they became closer and we became the best trio. But i have had to friend zone payton once but i think he knew deep down in his heart that it wouldn't work, so i don't think he took it too hard. 

I grab Payton's arm and lead him into the kitchen where Dylan is eating his breakfast, shovelling it into his mouth like a pig. "You eat like a pig" i snap, letting go of payton as he sits down
"whatever" dylan's voice is muffled because of how much food is in his mouth right now and i simply roll my eyes and hand payton a glass of apple juice.
