"But i haven't even really had an entire conversation with him since our parents got married Chris!" Malia explained to Chris over video chat as she paced across her bedroom floor, Occasionally looking over at her computer screen, She was furious that their parents left her and Xylan at home. Alone. With each other! Hadn't Sierra and Donovan learned already?
At the wedding Malia and Xylan argued over where the other would stand, Then over who should give out the rings, Then over why Xylan didn't want to wear dress shoes, Then Malia started crying as their parents said their vows; Causing Xylan to panic (he was very uncomfortable with tears) So he started insulting her, So she started insulting him, So on and so forth, And who could forget when they had to dance together, That was a whole other can of worms. You would think that with him being twenty five he would be more mature, Well...You'd be sadly mistaken
"Wait, Don't You two live in the same house now?" Chris asked as he opened a bag of chips
"Yes, But it's usually just a 'hi' 'how are you' and 'bye' type of thing, You know?" She explained as she paused the tv
"...I think I get it" he said slowly as he processed what she had said (Chris isn't that bright...But ya gotta love him)
"Plus he's twenty five years old and he has a super good job, And this man is still living with us" she said as she sipped her frozen pumpkin spice coffee
"Well, He is your brother" chris said laughing lowly
"Yeah...I know that, I should have just facetimed Isabella, At least she would have helped me" she sighed as she threw herself atop her bed
"How am I supposed to help exactly?" He asked in a puzzled voice"I don't know, Tell me I'm dreaming? That I don't have an assfaced brother?" She offered as she heard him laugh out
"You know I can't tell you that" he chuckled as he spoke
"Unfortunately!...And guess what? I'm stuck with him for three weeks until our parents get back, And he's supposedly in charge!" she vented as she removed her sweater, She had just gotten home from Layla's house not too long ago and she just wanted to relax, Which hadn't been possible since her and Xylan started sharing a house...But a girl can dream right?
"...But You're seventeen" chris spoke as he slurped on his soda
"Yeah, I know! But he's older and you know how my mom is, The oldest is always in charge" she mimicked her mother angrily as she walked away from the computer so she could discard her clothes and slip on her pajamas"Wow...I'm sorry Mal" Chris sympathized slowly
"It's three weeks, I'll make it...Right?" She asked pouting at the thought of being in the same house with the rude, Arrogant, Egotistical, Controlling, Sexy- Wait...What was her point again?
"Right" he said as he started typing away on his computer
"I just wish he had to work while they were gone so I wouldn't have to see him often, but NO! he is off of work so he can 'watch over me' until our parents get back, According to him" she said as she finished her coffee, Placing the cup on her nightstand.
"Where does he even work?" He asked as he continued typing
"He is the ceo of his company, Plus he's branching out or something, I don't know" she explained as an image of him clad in a suit flashed in her mind
'stop being weird malia' she scolded herself as she palmed her forehead
"I'm gonna go to bed, It's late and I'm really tired" she said as she looked at the clock that read 11:45pm
"Alright, See ya Mal" he said as he stuffed half the bag of chips into his mouth
"See you later, C" she rolled her eyes as she closed the tab on her laptop, She sighed as she pulled her covers back ready for a sweet peaceful slumber to take her away
"Malia? Come here!" Xylan yelled from his room, He was just across the hall...Why was he yelling like an idiot?!She grumbled as she padded her way to his room, She was always so nervous and intimidated around him, But she didn't really know why.
