The Brothers

Dinner

Oh I feel your heartbeat
And oh, you're comin' around, comin' around, comin' around
If you can love somebody, love them all the same
You gotta love somebody, love them all the same
I'm singing, oh, I feel your heartbeat

The family started making pasta, well...Nicholas and his mom made dinner while everyone sat down in the living room waiting and talking. They were soon called and saw the table set up and everyone's respective mug at their place. Michela smiled and sat down in front of her mug. The seating was obviously planned by Nicholas: Michela was in between Justin and him, next to Nicholas was Jesse, then their mom Diana, then their dad Argee, and Brandon was across from Jesse. Diana and Argee were across from Michela and Justin. Obviously, everyone in that room knew or thought that Michela and Justin liked each other. Nicholas smiled.

"Sooo...ideas?"

Michela's eyes brightened immediately.

"Ooh! You should totally like have a small dinner or feast kind of thing,"

Diana nodded.

"Yes, you should have two people baking or cooking food while Ashley and you talk about whatever you guys talk about,"

Michela nodded happily.

"You two can just eat the food that is finished being prepared, it would have to be delicious food that the two of you love,"

Nicholas knew he should have just locked his mom and Michela in a room and have them spout out ideas to each other.

"Ash and I both love apple pie, she loves pancakes as everyone knows, we love tacos, ice cream, sushi is also good...u-"

Michela obviously had to interrupt him,

"Y'all love pizza too,"

Nicholas nodded. Diana nodded in thought.

"So whoever is cooking will make Apple pie, tacos, ice cream, and pizza."

Everyone agreed to that list of food. Nicholas nodded.

"Okay, what's the next step?"

Michela sighed and rolled her eyes. Justin was trying hard to not stare at her, trying hard to ignore his beating heart and the warmth he felt every time he thought of her or heard her smile. Michela looked at Justin for a split second no one, except Diana, saw this. Michela looked at Nicholas.

"Well, you should totally do this thing that I saw on tv before...the man was about to propose to his girlfriend, so he filled his room and bed with roses and on the bed was a heart and in the heart was: will you forever be mine? That is so cool, to be honest."

Nicholas smiles hugely at the idea. He immediately got up and pulled Michela out of her chair and spun her around.

"And that is why you are my favorite!"

Michela laughed and Nicholas put her down.

"Of course I'm your favorite! Your life would be dull without me in it,"

Nicholas shrugged and chuckled.

"Okay. So I just need to get roses, umm loads of ingredients, and a ring."

Michela's eyes widened.

"Oh my god! The ring! Let's go get it now!!!"

Everyone looked up and at Michela at that statement. Nicholas raised his eyebrow at her.

"Now??"

Michela rolled her eyes.

"Oh my god. Diana, what have you taught them about rings and stuff?"

Diana's eyes shone in amusement.

"Apparently not enough,"

All the boys looked at the two women. Jesse and Brandon shrugged, already having given up on romance. Michela sighed.

"Nickey, rings could have to be ordered. We need to go nowwww,"

Nicholas sighed.

"Fine fine. I'll get my sweater."

Michela looked down and fully realized she still was wearing her West Side jersey.

"Do you have a top I can change into?"

Nicholas nodded and the two walked into his room, Nicholas turning around while Michela quickly changed into a black tank top.

"Done! Let's go!!"

Nicholas chuckled and nodded. They locked arms and left, before leaving they promised to be back as soon as they could.
