Luna's Secret

Chapter 3

HER

I slip on a short red dress and cheetah print shoes and look at myself in the mirror, and I look damn good. I hear a knock on my door. "Alex, I need you to watch Chris tonight." I turn to see my mom in her scrubs and hospital coat. "Mom, I can't. I have a date." I say motioning to up and down to my outfit. My mom side-eyes me. "You'll have to cancel because Chris can't be at the hospital for 10 hours while I'm in surgery." I huff, "Fine. I'll babysit the brat.

Later that evening, Chris and I are in the den watching scary movies when we hear a knock at the door. I immediately pause the movie and head upstairs to the door. I open it to find Roman in a slick black suit. I stare at him for a while. "Alex? Is it okay that I come in?" He asks, I nod and watch as he steps in, and shut the door behind him. "You know, I was calling your name for several minutes." I blush, "Sorry. I was just in a daze." He smiles. "I know I'm sexy and all that, but damn." He says, I laugh. "Boy. Bye." He winks at me.

I take a seat at the stool in front of the kitchen island. "I can tell you're ready to go. But I don't think the place we're going will let you come in with a bath robe." He motions to my outfit. "Oh my gosh. I totally forgot to call you. My mom had a last minute surgery and told me I had to watch my little brother. I am so sorry." Roman puts his hands up in protest, "Alex, it's all good. Maybe another time." I nod and escort him to the door, just as he is about to turn and leave Chris rushes upstairs. "Alex! They chopped off the guy's head!"

Roman smiles, "Scary movie?" He asks. I nod, "He really wanted to watch some tonight." Roman smiles, "Mind if I join you guys?" Chris stays silent. I watch as Chis walks into the kitchen, he grabs a stool and brings it over to Roman and climbs on top of it. "If you want to date my sister, you need my approval."

Roman stands at attention, "Yes sit." he says. Chris hops down and heads back to the den. Roman turns towards me, "So, was that a yes or a no?" I shrug my shoulders.

"Well, are you guys coming?" I hear Chris yell from the basement. "Yes." Roman and I say in unison.

As Roman and I take a journey downstairs, I can feel his eyes glued to my ass. So I start to twist a little harder.

We take a seat on the couch. "This is the best one!" Roman exclaims. I see Chris turn around, "No way dude! I haven't even finished the whole Movie collection yet." Roan jumps off the couch and onto the floor with Chris. After about ten minutes of hearing the boys talking about zombies and the walking dead, I zoned out and grabbed a blanket.

HIM

After our third movie about zombies, Chris and I notice that Alex has fallen asleep. I look at Chris and motion him to head upstairs with me. "We should do a prank on her." He says to me. I nod, "Good idea."

We head back downstairs with our master plan. We stand over Alex and place the bullhorn right over her body, which is perfect by the way. Even when she is asleep, I can see the curves in her body. "One, Two, Three." Chris pulls the bullhorn and Alex falls on the floor. Chris begins to laugh so hard, and I join him. "Really?" She yells at us. She hits me on the chest and storms upstairs.

Chris turns to me and gives me a high five. "We totally got her!" I smile. "We so did." I laugh.

After Alex was done pouting, Chris and I notice that she's back on the couch. I see Chris nodding off to sleep, so I climb on the couch and take a seat next to Alex. And we sat there for what felt like hours about small talk, where she grew up, my family, and of course school. Honestly, most of the conversation surrounded school and what her plans were after school... which by no surprise is... yep you guessed it. More school. Alex turns to me and nods towards a sleeping Chris. "Will you carry him to his room?" I nod, "Of course." I say to her. I pick him up and head all the way upstairs. I pass three bedrooms until I get to a room with a "C" posted on the door. I turn the knob and remove the covers and tuck Chris in.

"I had fun, Roman." I hear Chris say, I smile. "I'm glad Chris. Goodnight." I head out of his room and shut his door quietly.

I walk downstairs and find Alex in the kitchen. "What are you doing?" She turns. "Eating ice-cream." I nod, "Want some?" She asks me, "Nah, I'm good." I watch as Alex grabs a large box from the living room. "What's that?" I ask her.

She shrugs her shoulders, "It's a box of dead roses, I received them today." I immediately start to back away. The TimberRidge death warning. Oh shit! The pack is in definite trouble now.

"I'm sorry, but I have to go." I mutter. "What do you mean?" Alex asks me from behind, as I walk right out of the front door.
