"Okay, can we stop? I think my brain is over flowing with knowledge" Will whines from my lap.
"We weren't doing much. You were laying down while I asked you simple multiplication and division questions"
Right now, Will's head was resting in my lap, my mom was cooking dinner and Chance had Jake over because I 'hogged' Will again, but I keep telling Chance it's not my fault that boys love me.
When Jake came in at first, I immediately rushed into the bathroom, with worry that Jake would give me sad puppy eyes, and I waited for him to get into Chances room. While I ran, I might've.. just might've, made Will's nose bleed, because he was half asleep and he fell off the couch head first into the coffee table.

"Yeah, but can we watch a movie or something fun?" Will looks up at me.
"I can go check what time dinner is ready at" I say motioning towards his head so that he knows to move it ,in order to not have a bloody nose.
He lifts it up, just enough time to slide out and he sets his head back on the couch. Walking over to the kitchen, the smell of homemade lasagna is become stronger.
"When is dinner ready mom?" I ask as she just takes it out of the oven.
"Does that answer your question?"
"Yup" I say, looking over to find a table set with 6 seats.
"Go get Will, Chance, and Jake please"
"Okay" I say and head to the living room.
"Dinner is-"
"I know, you think I can't hear the whole conversation?"
"It's a good thing I didn't talk about other stuff" I snort.
"Like what? Pads? Tampons? Vaginas? Boobs? Bras? Boys? Me?"
"Okay, just stop, anyways, dinner is-"
"Jojo siwa?"
"Can you just let the jojo thing die go?"
"Sure, once I get another Jojo siwa discussion ending" will smirks.
"Not right now, and we will, uh, talk about it later." I smile awkwardly and turn towards Chances room before he can reply. I knock - unlike my brother - and they reply telling me to open the door. Jake looks perfectly fine, and I'm very thankful. They have dumb and dumber 2 playing and they are in their phones. Typical Chance.
"Boys, dinner is ready!" I sing-song say and they're heads jerk over at the mention of food.
"Food?" Jake says
"Homemade Lasagna" I smile
"Yum" Jake replies
"Yup" Chance says more casually then Jake is right now
"Now let's go eat!" I scream and turn on my heel, eyes closed and of course, bang into a chest.
"Hey, sweetie" Will smiles and I look up at him. I back up to move around him and bump into Jake.
"Hey, sugar" Jake smiles creepily and right now it looks as if he's possessed.
" jake.." I whisper, his face now inches from mine.
Chance is no where to be seen, probably already left and Will is right on the other side of me.
"Yes, Astrid?" My name rolls on his tongue in a tone I never wanted to hear from Jake.
" back away" I say slowly, doing what I said, I back away and as if Will feels my uncomfortableness, scoops me up and runs out into the dining room. Chance isn't in there, so maybe he's in the bathroom.
I select my seat right beside the end, where my mom has her stuff situated which means she claimed that spot. Will sits on the other side of me, which is beside my dad.
Chance comes walking in, rubbing his hands on his pants.
"Where's Jake?"
"I think still in your room," I reply, watching Will get up and jerk his head to talk to Chance in private.
"Sweetie, can you pour the beverages please?" My mom asks and it thankfully helps me get my mind off of how possessed Jake looked. He looked so out of it. I slip out of my chair and grab the milk, knowing that's what my mom and Chance wants. I pour myself some iced tea, my dad some too, and Will sits back down.
"What would you like? Milk? Apple juice? Iced tea? Water?"
"Iced tea please" Will says and I pour him a glass.
"Chance is with Jake"
"I'm going to go see, maybe I could help with Jake"
"I'm coming then" Will says with no hesitation.
We both get up and head to Chances room. "Jake? Chance? Everything all right?"
Then I just barely see Chances head bobbing by the other side of his bed. I loop around to find a twitching, heavy breathing Jake. His finger nails, digging into his palms, causing them to bleed.
" Jake, he's having a panic attack" Chance says unlocking his phone and dialling in Summers number. She instantly picks up and he puts it on speaker, putting his finger to his lips, for us to shut up.
"Hey, Chance" Summer says trying to flirt and I face Will and gag, and a deep chuckle escapes his lips, causing Chance to give us a glare.
"Hey, um, can you come to my house? Now?"
"Yeah, what's up?"
The sky
" Jake" is all he says and Summer goes full out.
"Omg! Jake has been having so many panic attacks as soon as Astrid and you moved in. Your sister is ruining him! I'm coming, and I'm making sure, Astrid will never get to talk to him again!"

The end of the line dies.
What did I do?
