Chapter Seven

(Return to Diana's pov)

"Jkiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiibvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvasqqq lol sorry cat stepped on the keyboard"

I was talking to Alyssa over Wattpad messages when Kit Kat decided he wanted some attention. Poor thing. Johnny probably hadn't fed him since this morning.

I'd gotten home about two hours ago, and Johnny had been in his room ever since. It made me wonder what he was doing that was so antisocial..... I decided to go check.

Um, Diana? It's not safe to barge in on a boy when he's in his room.....I ignored Seth's warning and continued to walk towards his room. No no seriously, I wouldn't-!

"Hey Johnny! Incoming!" I opened his door to find him- gasp- playing video games. It was some game where you have to kill the zombies and save the president's daughter, I'd seen him play it before. He was sprawled out on the floor with the controller, completely focused on the TV screen.

What are you gonna do Diana? Asked Seth. I did not answer.

Instead, I sat on Johnny.

"GAH! Diana Lynn Bloodworth get your fat ass off of me!"

"Aww don't be like that. We're supposed to get along, remember. Sibling love~"

"DIANA! You made me get killed by the chainsaw dude.... Those guys suck..."

"Haha they take after you bro."

He wiggled out from underneath me and gave me a death glare, then turned off his Xbox. "Why are you here anyways?" That made me think. Why was I in my brother's room?

"You've been in here for hours."

"Just one hour!"

"You didn't feed Kit Kat; you're a terrible cat daddy."

"That cat can die in a hole."

I got up to sit on his bed, but felt something under the covers. I lifted them up and found a wrinkled sheet of paper, with a selfie taking up most of the page. The girl in it looked excessively old for my brother. "Johnny, why are you stalking somebody on their way to the 30 year mountain?"

"Because she's hot, duh."

"Dude, you're twelve."

"Yeah, and you're thirteen and don't have a boyfriend. I refuse to end up like you! Yuck."

"Oh, how flattering. And for your information, I'm fourteen. If you're going to insult me get it right." I examined the picture more closely, and recognized the face. The "hot" girl had messy black hair and light blue eyes, and her face looked extremely familiar in so many ways....

Diana? We both saw the similarities. Diana I think that's my sister!

"I'm taking this."

I don't know though, she just finished college when I saw her last...

Would she know you as a ghost?

That was when I realized my brother was staring at me. I glared at him and he turned away, but not before teasing me. "Ha, told you she was hot. You can't stop staring at her, and you want to take the paper and probably do gross things-"

"SHUT UP!" I launched myself off his bed and chased him to the door, but he was fast. Johnny ran out into the living room laughing, and then out the door into the yard. I charged out after him, now I was laughing too.

However, I abruptly stopped when I saw Isaac outside the door.

He was still in his jacket and jeans from earlier today in school, and wore the same smile, although it was bigger now. "Got to love brothers, huh?" God, his voice... it's amazing...
